...course which the students must pursue in order to get a degree. For the college proper the standard of requirements for admission is high, but they are so elastic that they fit the needs of almost every candidate.

...find their true development, I can only say again two words which I have said together already several times in my sermon. These words are character and service. These two words, I think, describe the higher regions of man's life in which alone his powers can fulfil themselves and know their real strength and fit themselves for the full doing even of their lower tasks.

Harvard certainly is not desirous of exacting conditions from Princeton which she is not willing to fulfil her self. Because she cannot be injured by a challenge is no reason for calling her present protest underhanded. It is for the best interests of all colleges concerned that the players of each should be challenged in order that college athletics may be purified as far as possible...
