...good Review is even more generous yet: "The older colleges have a larger proportion of loafers. But this is not the fault of the colleges. Western colleges have less of this disturbing element now, but as they grow they will meet with the same difficulties. Indeed, some of our Western schools are even now passing the Eastern colleges in these unsatisfactory elements, and Ann Arbor, Northwestern and Oberlin may well congratulate themselves if, when they are as old as Harvard and Williams and Amherst, they turn out as fine gentlemen, as keen scholars and as earnest Christians.
