...discussion, that the present marking system is unjust," nor were the resolutions passed designed to tell the students anything. They were intended to tell the faculty something, and this end, we claim, they will accomplish.

Not only his services in the position which he so ably filled have entitled him to the gratitude of Harvard, but his noble interest in the work of the poorer students, and the assistance which he stood ever ready to render them, have endeared him to the students of a former generation, and have secured him the respect of the undergraduates...
