This happens occasionally, but far too seldom, and more...

The good grace, the especial fitness, of including such an officer among the fellows of Harvard just at this time when the generous response of alumni the world over has carried the Harvard campaign for endowment to all but its final triumphant conclusion, is too evident to need comment When one considers also the new breadth of representation which Mr. Byrne brings to the board in his capacity as the first Catholic ever elected to be a member of the Harvard corporation, the interest of his appointment stands revealed in its totality. --Boston Transcript...
