...must be very trying to the government of a University like Harvard, that has already been attempting with its limited means to advance the standard of education, to see a large sum given to found a new college. The older Universities would, on many accounts, be far more able to furnish post-graduate instruction of a high grade, for their corporations are more experienced, their reputation is sufficient to attract professors and students, and they have a large body of undergraduates who would spur on the resident graduates to make good progress. Still, competent judges think that "Hopkins University" will...

...peruses the "Index" must be struck with the ingenuity of the undergraduate. The list of societies, clubs, and what not which that manual contains must inspire him with a genuine respect for our inventive powers. Close examination of the list, and full understanding of the objects of the different societies it mentions, will, however, lay us open to a grave charge, a suspicion which no ingenuity will palliate, - a charge directed against our sense of justice rather than the force of our intellect; a charge of unfairness. I have deliberated long before fully resolving to bring this matter...
