...there would have to be some change in Harvard journalism, for very few, if any of the students, feel inclined to subscribe for three bi-weeklies and two dailies, for the sake of obtaining college news.

'What shall we do to be saved! Perhaps we have been unfortunate, and run across the worst element of Harvard; at any rate, the above represents the tone and spirit of all our Harvard acquaintances. We might go on, but will not, for we have probably fallen into the ridiculous in speaking of the ridiculousness of others...
