Five noted men, James, Royce, Muensterberg, Santayana and Palmer, were not many years ago all teaching in Harvard's department of philosophy and psychology; now the first three are dead, the fourth has gone back to his native continent, and the fifth has retired.

It cannot be denied that intellectual restraint does exist in many colleges. That it does not exist at Harvard is one of our proudest boasts. In theory, Senator Hollis was right: but in fact he was wrong. Harvard is widely praised and widely attacked for leading...
