Since training tables are needed to keep athletes in the best condition, since they facilitate the work of the coaches, and since, by bringing the men together, they stimulate team work, I believe that a training table costing not over $8.50 a week fully warrants the expense to which the University is put in supporting it.

The judgment on practical affairs, political and social, of educated men who keep aloof from the conditions of practical life, is apt to be valueless to those other men who do really wage effective war against the forces of baseness and evil. From the political standpoint, education is a harm and not a benefit to the men whom it serves as an excuse...
