...previous results of attempts to control women do not promise much success to this project. The traditional last word of Xantippe and the saline perversity of the wife of Lot show that restrictions are not particularly adaptable to them.

With the now famous Harkness project approaching realization at Harvard, history of a far-reaching significance is being made. The men in whose hands rests the unenviable responsibility of breaking the ground for this undertaking would give a good deal to be able to occupy our places as university undergraduates for a few days; for there are many of the thoughts of youth, psychological shifts of one sort or another, which come to these older men through the haze, be it ever so faint, of memory.
