Abstract
As part of a tribute to Michael J. McTighe’s ‘A Measure of Success’, David Hammack highlights McTighe’s work on the role of Protestant churches in shaping Cleveland’s public culture during the 19th century, and the reorganization of Cleveland’s religious and charitable organizations during the early 20th century, reflecting the secularization of philanthropy and higher education during that time and efforts by Cleveland’s leadership to develop nonsectarian approaches to social service and philanthropy. Conference paper; originally published in Western Reserve Studies Symposium (9th:1994 : Cleveland, Ohio)
