...University compels all Freshmen to take some form of athletic exercise, and surprising results have been obtained from this compulsory exercise. Many men have kept on after their Freshman year because they have concluded that in addition to the healthful exercise, they have met several men they otherwise would not have met. They have surprised themselves to find that they had something they never knew they had, and as one Freshman expressed it: "It has been worth while because of the broader point of view I have after this past year's experience...
...elementary course, besides imparting definite knowledge, should have two aims,--to give the student a general survey of the field and to present it to him in such a way that any taste he may have for the subject will be encouraged. The first requirement is more easily met than the second; for after absorbing a certain number of lectures and struggling over as much as possible of the outside reading, a man can scarcely fail to secure a perspective of the work that may be useful to him later on.

The Harvard Glee Club can always return to doing the things that any glee club does. But is it not fairer and more reasonable for those who have any interest in the matter at all, to support, or at least to retrain from maligning, a movement whose aim among other things, is to place the name...
