    As recently as 1900, American colleges and universities educated too few students and did too little research. One way to gauge that is to examine the Nobel Laureates in the physical sciences — chemistry, physics and physiology or medicine. The awards began in 1901, and over the next two decades only two Americans received the prize, one of whom was an immigrant.
