...matter how many homeless wretches may long to rest their limbs within. We have examined the matter and find that the case is not quite as bad as this. One cannot give his room to any particular man, but the new arrangement provides a way by which he can make over his right to several men, as it were, who will struggle among themselves, and the luckiest will take the room...

A list will be made, probably in June, of the rooms whose holders do not intend to occupy them; applications will be received for these rooms precisely as they are received before the annual allotment; a drawing will then be made by lot and the result will be published.

These fellowships are needed in every institution which lays a claim to be called a "University," but they fail to make the university. If we could offer here the means of living to a score or two of graduates each year, we should have almost the last requirement toward making Harvard a university in the sense that Cambridge and Oxford are universities. But we must wait until those who leave money...
