...months of paternalistic culture and Trinity will be in a position today claim to the title, "best read college in America." The possibilities for dinner and pullman car conversations that these informed men will enjoy, are unlimited. No need for Trinity graduates to depend on. Vanity Fair talk as an avenue for popularity. And surely they will be able to sit down for fifteen minutes with a newspaper without fear of neglecting the classics they know so well. The only disadvantage in the idea is that it will be so easy to spot a Trinity man in any gathering...
