Judge Cooley is not only one of the most distinguished men of our own country, but is of more than national reputation. He is a recognized authority on all questions relating to the constitution of the United States, and in his present position as chairman of the Inter-state Commerce Commision is, without doubt, doing more than any one else to establish American law in regard to railroads.

...purpose of continuing their work in some of the departments of the university. They are almost uniformly men of considerable maturity, and of extended experience with educational institutions, as well as with the world. Their attitude here is that of impartial, disinterested observers. Their opinion must, therefore, carry great weight with it; and it is a fact that the report of their committee has been awaited in many quarters with a great deal of interest because of the definite and trustworthy information it would certainly give on the much discussed question of the moral and intellectual earnestness of Harvard students...
