...There is also a list of class reports, and of discussions pertaining to the place of classics in education. The last division and the one which fills nearly the entire pamphlet is the catalogue of publications of the instructors of the university. We may well be proud of this array of the works of our eminent men. Forty-two closely printed pages of two columns each, are requisite to record the list of the teachings which have gone forth into the world from our college professors. There is nothing in this pamphlet that is not directly to the point...
...recent article in the New Englander entitled "Yale under President Porter," by Mr. Henry C. Kingsley, treasurer of the college has been commented on in the columns of the CRIMSON. The array of figures presented by Mr. Kingsley suggests a comparison with the changes wrought here during President Eliot's administration, which began two years earlier than did President Porter's. In 1869, when President Eliot was elected, the number of students in the university was 1097. At the end of the first five years the average enrollment was 1086; for the second five years, 1300; and for the third...

Before such an array of wonderful dreams, we cannot but admit that dreams are among the strangest things in a strange universe. We begin to feel as humble as old Socrates, who said that he knew only that he knew nothing. It is from this very fact of our growing humility that I draw...
...picture in whose frame are carefully stuck the menus of the many dinners at which he has been present during his four year's course: he can hardly conceive how the collection grew, from the single souvenir of some dinner of his training school alumni, to the imposing array of class, society, and other "spread cards" which now confronts him. But with each card goes some story of jollity: it was at that dinner that Jack sung his new song: this card commemorates a dinner in honor of a Yale race won by our glorious crew: and so on, through...
