...undergraduate, on the other hand, treats the subject in a dispassionate way which is thoroughly admirable. We heartily agree with him that the strong sentiment of the College against the action of the Faculty should find expression; but we can hardly believe that the Faculty have been so unpardonably blind as to mistake even gentlemanly acquiescence for approval.

The Boston papers can not be blamed for publishing in good faith what was sent them as correct news; but the man who with all the sources of reliable information at his hand, neglected these and so sacrificed the interests of the College to his own, deserves the censure of the entire University...
