Oxford and Cambridge suggest themselves as source of this radical change, almost without precedent as it is in any college of the United States today. Indeed, the official announcement points out that in the past Harvard's period of formal teaching and examination has always been from two to three months longer than in the British or Continental-universities. And this fact is cited in partial justification of the reduction of formal exercises now decreed by Harvard. The use of that particular argument is significant.
