...result has been the Introduction of courses paralleling everywhere in the curriculum the structural elements in the undergraduate leisure. Even the hobbledehoy dramatic pretensions of fraternity night have been capitalized to develop dramatic production by Faculty teachers who seek to extend their away over histrionic impulse of the undergraduate. In this new recognition of the values evolving from student life itself, there is coming about an understanding and cooperation between professors and students; cut of this cooperation and out of this increase of contact is coming the modern student movement...
...find ourselves driven to admit that knowledge is growing more rapidly than educators an fetter it, may it not be necessary for us to strive to develop educational methods in the undergraduate's years that will deal more directly with the mental processes of the student than do many of our present methods of teaching, and examination that lay so much emphasis on subject matter?

A college, after all, is not run only for the benefit of honor students. An educational institution must develop not only intellect but character. Those who can not, or do not choose to try for distinction also have their place, and among them are many of the best men in the university. To encourage segregation of the better students from these men would work injustice to both classes Distinction...
