...have come back to Cambridge from time to time and have scoffed at the idea. The fact is they have not known the truth, probably no one does realize it fully outside of the student body. Harvard students of today are enthusiastic at bottom. Their affection for their Alma Mater is as strong as it ever was, but they are not so willing to show it as they were twenty years ago.
