...Moreover, what is perhaps quite as serious, the Corporation cannot make Commencement Day a state celebration by freely inviting state and city dignitaries and representatives of the schools. Harvard, it must not be forgotten, stands in close though somewhat indefinite relations to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and the annual festival of the University should be a day for marking and strengthening the bond. This happy function of Commencement must be almost wholly neglected while the Commencement Exercises continue in Sanders Theatre...

Bishop Brooks was a frequent speaker during his rectorship at Trinity Church, and into the life of the Society he poured a large share of a personality which can never be forgotten. Professor Shaler was an honorary member and President Lowell was vice-president of the Society in 1876.

Direct taxation we do not have, but indirectly we contribute our full share, and it is certainly not unreasonable to expect consideration at least equal to that accorded residential districts...
