...expediency of doing something to stir up the students on this most important subject. This meeting was called by young men, and was managed by them throughout, the older leaders deferring that to them entirely.

This appears to imply a view of the right of faculties to interfere quite as extreme as the undergraduate notion that the students must be left altogether to themselves. If we are right in what we have been saying, the difficulty with the present movement lies in its having attempted too much, and points to the necessity...
