...when so regarded, the numerous reports of the past year seem to establish one thing and that not very startling. President Lowell once likened a college community to a cross-section of the outside world. Such would seem to be the consensus of opinion of the statisticians although they seldom state it thus. In short, Harvard, or Wisconsin, or Yale,--or any University of like size, -- can not be called a "rich man's college," or a poor man's college or even a middle class college without violating the full character of the community. All classes-financially, morally, intellectually...

In other words, the men from a distance figure more largely than those from the immediate vicinity and the man from Missouri, to quote a concrete instance, seems to stand three times as good a chance of being prominent as the man from Massachusetts. This would seem to explode the theory that a man must come from Massachusetts to attain prominence at Harvard...

With modern shower baths came modern comfort; with electric lights comes a certain degree of luxury which removes the last reason for unwillingness to spend one year in the Yard. The CRIMSON highly commends the unselfish spirit and cooperation between...
...Warren '13, H. G. MacLure '15, and H. P. Lawless '13 seem good for three places in the mile run, while in the two-mile race R. St.B. Boyd '14, F. W. Copeland '13, and B. S. Carter '15 should finish in the order named...
