...Confidential Guide of College Courses which the CRIMSON published at the opening of the college year last September was greeted in the editorial columns of the press with startled comment. The very idea that an undergraduate publication should admit the curriculum to its news columns, and particularly that it should admit it on the eve of the football season, appeared to commentators a most astounding, if not preposterous, departure from established policy.

But that the novelty dwindles to insignificance before the sanity and sufficiency of its conception, one must surely admit. In this section of the report, the Committee has certainly and in no trivial manner justified its existence...
