...wish, therefore, to ask if cases of this more recent kind do not deserve a like punishment at the hands of the authorities. Not that I think such punishment will result in the moral reform of the offender. But is it right that the students in large courses should have to suffer from the unscrupulousness of a few worthless fellows, who are allowed to go about with impunity...

...least thought of others except as prowlers who would do the same if they were but given the opportunity.

But as it is our fate to have final examinations, all of us who care anything about our standing have begun to prepare for them. But there are some men who seem not to have any concern at all about the examinations, and not only do not study themselves, but keep others from studying by their thoughtless racket in their rooms...
