...consideration the merits of this far-reaching plan are evident. Across the Hudson River, the idea prevails that Harvard is too much a New England college, and that a man from the West is not welcome here. It is to dispel this unfortunate illusion and to present the true state of affairs in Cambridge that speakers are being sent throughout the country, armed with facts which cannot be controverted...
