...summer theater's demise is also attributable, however, to the carping criticism directed at its producers by certain members of the English Department, notably professors Levin, Chapman and Brower. These gentlemen seem to have appointed themselves unofficial ministers to the board of trustees, and have taken upon their shoulders the work of keeping Cambridge drama clean.

The exodus leaves the department without Baker, Bate, Brower, Levin, Shannon, Guerard, and Rollins. So pity the poor English major as he tries to find a professor. Sorrow for him as he searches for courses with which to pass generals. Grieve for him as he looks for Modern Novels, Romantic Poets, Elizabethan Literature, Early Tudor Literature, Eighteenth Century Literature, Criticism, and Modern Poetry.
