...institution in the study of international diplomacy. Under judicious management it may well gain the prestige and dignity of organized scholarship which is impossible to attain while the field is regarded merely as a part of an Arts and Sciences curriculum or when, although isolated, it labors under the stigma of pure vocationalism. Study under such conditions would endow men entering the state department with a far more scholarly attitude than before; the new atmosphere should encourage more students to enter the field as research scholars. If the school can bring about these results, it will render a great service...
...Paul address should have offered Mr. Roosevelt an excellent opportunity to rehabilitate his cause by offering a concrete attack on the Republican administration and the Smith proposals, and an intelligently organized, well buttressed program of his own.

It has been considered by many as a social desert and a stigma has been attached to its name. This attitude will become tempered in time. The predominance of Economics in the House although slight may easily become permanent. As has been said before, Kirkland House labors under physical handicaps. If it is to take its place as a ranking House it must...
...occasion even more when the news reaches groups of Harvard men throughout the country. He is not the first Harvard coach to be connected with an outside athletic enterprise and some of the present coaches have other sport relations. But the boxing game has come to have a certain stigma attached to it and it will be hard for many to reconcile the fact that Harvard's name and the name of one of her head coaches will be mentioned continually in connection with professional boxing, which today is less an athletic pursuit and more a well controlled "racket...
