By this time the matter must be pretty well known and there is no reason, now that the box has been provided in Memorial Hall, why we should not have a generous response from portions of the University better able if not more willing than the Foxcroft Club, to contribute money. A contribution of thirty or forty dollars from an institution of this size is simply ridiculous; if the students are to give anything, they should give freely. Unless we are very much...

With him has passed away a certain spirit of familiarity and friendship between professors and students, for his retirement came at a time when the University...
...students themselves. We have little to say of a man who will deny this, We are glad that in Harvard there is a just appreciation of a person's worth. When an insult is offered to a colored man of Lewis character, the whole university is broad enough and generous enough to rise up in indignation that any one should infer by his conduct, that so contemptible a spirit of snobbishness is in the university and must be catered...
