...those who shun excitement find in the same places the calm and the quiet so favorable to meditation and research. It must be apparent that, were the proposed plan carried out, the usefulness of such colleges would be seriously impaired. If the government assumes to educate, it puts an end to private benevolence; and, in building a new structure, it undermines the old. The same logic applies to the universities under state control. Would it not be folly for Michigan to support a great university within her borders, and, at the same time, to expend wealth for the maintenance...

But we think if the matter is given a fair consideration it will...
...crimson began to regain the lost ground, until at the half mile flag Yale was barely a quarter of a length ahead. Yale passed the ball mile in 3:04. In the third quarter Harvard made up all she had lost and began to lead Yale until at the end of the first mile there was a clear boat's length of water between Harvard's rudder and Yale's bow. The fact that Harvard never quickened her stroke from the point when Yale was a length ahead to the point when Yale was a length behind tells the whole...
