...additional fact that our prelates wisely hold that we should direct and control such branches in a university of our own. I don't know who the priest is who so jauntily declares that "the danger of alienating our youth from Catholicism" is not very great as the result of a Harvard or Yale course. But this I will say, that in my time I have met many Harvard men and found but one a sincere Christian. With the rest of them the pursuit of a secular knowledge seemed to have led to skepticism and a thinly disguised contempt...
...pecuniary loss to our association will probably amount to some hundreds of dollars, as the management expected a good attendance at this, the only championship game to be played in Cambridge. This action on the part of Columbia, together with her refusal to play the Princeton game, will probably result in her expulsion from the association.

For such aid as has been readily given us by the officers of various organizations, we wish to express our thanks. But we should like to have the officers of all the organizations and indeed all the members...
...University Club held an important meeting this week, the result of which will be to make the club an assured success, and one of the college institutions. The building rented by the club on Chapel street is owned by Mr. Bowen, of Brooklyn, N. Y., who graduated here in the class of '81. The idea of forming a club was first agitated in 1881, and it was first merely a place where meals could be obtained, and one or two of the New York papers quietly read in the club's reading-room. In 1882, owing to the influence...
