...High license is a failure in practice. - (a) It does not restrict the evil: Hand book of Prohibition, pp. 5, 54, and 58; also Forum, vol. 7. p. 681. - (b) Revenue obtained from it is more than counter-balanced by the cost of pauperism and crime it entails...
...liberal stand which the administrative boards have taken in regard to its government. They have been conservative only so far as is necessary with a new institution which cannot rely on traditions or history to enforce its position in the country and they have shown no inclination to restrict or to interfere arbitrarily with undergraduate affairs. The university has, moreover, taken a commendable stand in regard to the secrecy of the college fraternities which will, in time, become established there. In a recent address to the undergraduates President Harper stated that the faculty, after due consideration, are strongly opposed...

...Faculty began to restrict the liberties of students on probation, and later made attendance on lectures more compulsory, and obliged men to return to college on the prescribed days. Everything tends toward the more direct supervision of the undergraduate, which is for the best if not carried too far. When the tone of the college has been raised to the proper point, it will be harmful for the Faculty not to recognize the fact. There is a limit to the amount of beneficial supervision just as there is a point where supervision is necessary...
