...Clinic has no funds for expansion; because the University budget has been reduced in all departments, no aid can be expected from that source; and the dream of an all-wise, beneficent alumnus has not yet materialized. Unpopular as it would doubtless be, a general tax on the student body appears to be the only practical solution; it would amount to only two dollars per student if levied on graduate men as well as the undergraduate body.

We wish to point out that a knowledge of American history and a connecting of the departments are not preclusive of self education...
...education is the recognition of one's self and one's environment--to that end--is not education through the self of primary importance? The university should recognize that no teacher can teach anything; from him, students can only learn. A Bliss Prize Exam, "a notable reading list in history, a series of brilliant lectures, a group of earnest scholars"--all these are useless without the student's personal drive...
