...possibility before they will even think of the larger aspects of the matter. And this protection is conceded them. Further than this, there is nothing specific which can be done to define the relations of the white man to the yellow. The progress of comity awaits a superstructure of fellowship to be built with social segregation as basis. It is none too good a foundation. The reluctance of Asia to relegate itself to cramped quarters for the sake of mere amity with a nation of abundant land, must commend itself somewhat to those who realize the fierceness of the Caucasian...
...centuries since Lincoln College, Oxford, performed its classic paradox. Founded to combat Lollardry in 1427, it unwittingly fostered a far greater popular schism in the Church by conferring, in 1726, a fellowship upon a young deacon named John Wesley.

...return to the life of the old Harvard, which was really a family affair in the days when it was fashionable to eat in Memorial Hall. It is hoped through the college nucleus "to draw diverse types of undergraduates together in close units of academic and social fellowship." The theory seems sound, superficially, at any rate. In the colleges which have remained small in numbers, where personal contacts and opportunities for close acquaintance are inescapable, the student bodies are well knit, as they are not in the great universities...
