...quite right in saying that "the younger men are rebelling." They are, indeed, rebelling against this narrow and mediaeval view of education. They have made up their minds that they did not come to college to be "filled". They came to develop themselves to the fullest. They have discovered that they possess not only a brain, but also a body, and an intangible something besides, called for lack of a better word, spirit--the core of personality which animates a man and makes him greater than a clod.

Those students who have found time and opportunity to develop their bodies and their social natures, and at the same time, to achieve distinction in their studies, deserve the highest honors the University can bestow upon them. Undergraduates already recognize them as leaders. The other group--the worshippers of a "Rank List" ideal need help of some kind from the College to put them on the path toward complete development. This is just as truly a duty as that of keeping tab on a student's academic standing, for after all, a college has only one function, that of training...
