Undoubtedly college instruction is superior to that of almost any fitting school, if one has any foundation to rest upon. With large sections, the instructor is obliged often to lecture, and treat the students as men of honor who will do their share of the work, and derive additional benefit from his remarks to them.

So far from the scene of action as we are, it is difficult to decide the rights of the case; but, after noticing the bad logic in the cards which contain the defiance of the undergraduates, and the dignified reply of the Faculty to that defiance, we cannot...
