...other Massachusetts college or university, we are glad that President Eliot has still been one of the strongest opposers of the bill, on the ground that the interests of all our colleges are inseparable. The undergraduate opinion on the question may not be entirely unbiased; but we do feel strongly that attempts to separate the interests of colleges from the interests of the states in which they are located, is unfortunate for both alike. We have reason to hope, however, that the opinions of unprejudiced men which have appeared in many of the papers throughout the State, will carry weight...
...advocating their installation in several dormitories, such as Matthews and Grays, where no effectual attempt has been made to interest the College authorities in the matter. In the Senior dormitories, the conditions are peculiar and we doubt whether common-rooms are necessary.

It is not only his right to do so, but his duty; his duty both to the nation and to himself. Each man should feel that...
...timid or too fastidious or too careless to do your part in this work, then you forfeit your right to be considered one of the governing and you become one of the governed instead--one of the driven cattle of the political arena. I want you to feel that it is not merely your right to take part in politics, not merely your duty to the state, but that it is demanded by your own self-respect, unless you are content to acknowledge that you are until to govern yourself and have to submit to the rule of somebody else...
