Poets must not shut themselves up away from the world, but must move in the heart of affairs; they must share in the life-blood of the general heart in order to express the whole spirit and burden of their times.

Nothing has been done to increase the attendance of women at Harvard since the time they were permitted to share the same instruction as that enjoyed by the young men of the University. When this measure was carried into effect it was supposed that a woman would be entitled to the same privileges as the other members of the University.

The chief reason, however, for our "bad eminence" is the readiness which the newspapers show to discredit all colleges, and Harvard, as the largest, gets the greatest share. There is a natural hostility between college-bred men and those who are "self-made," to which class belong the majority of journalists, and this enmity expends itself in spreading false rumors and injurious statements. The only thing that we can do is to live down this bad reputation by conducting ourselves...
