It is safe to say that the same result would not have been reached at Harvard. We believe that there is not the competition here that there should be for membership in the single society which bases its elections primarily on excellence in scholarship. Certainly it is true that the competition at New Haven is far keener and that at Yale the Phi Beta Kappa holds...
