However, although as students of Professor Haskins we may appreciate the honor conferred on him, it is with grave concern that we stop to count up the number of prominent members of the Faculty who are still away from their posts at Harvard. Four are now serving as advisory members of the Peace Conference, where their services are hardly to be dispensed with, but many more are still engaged in work at Washington and may not return for many months. While deeply conscious of the invaluable services which they have performed during the war we feel that their continued absence...
...Upon entering college, the matter of further military training to fit men to be officers must be decided by the college authorities. I favor military courses such as the Field Artillery Unit, which would count towards a degree, but would not take so much time that other courses would be neglected. After a year of military training, every young man would know what branch of the service he wished to enter.

Due to the war and the moving about of men in service we gradually found out that not only was the opinion of the College occasionally listened to in the United States, but even abroad it was taken into consideration...
...University student may count two, but not more than two Summer School courses in each session. He may thus obtain a credit of one whole course in either session, of if he stays through both sessions, a credit of two whole courses toward his college degree...
