...high standard of the paper. There is no contribution that is not well written, no contribution that makes one feel that the editors were short of material and had to fill up somehow.

Undergraduate publications are apt to be either trivial and careless or else over serious, too much impressed with their splendid mission. Both these pitfalls the Monthly successfully avoids...
