...found that some where the people don't control their own government, a condition which will be considered hypothetical, even though it is the fact in many notorious cases. Suppose that there is a bi-partisan machine which, no matter how the elections go, will run the government to suit the demands of the big interests which supply both sides with funds.

In view of the Freshman dormitories this condition is, of course, transitory but will certainly exist for several years to come. The College sends to prospective students a circular containing merely descriptions and prices of the rooms in its own buildings; and apparently it is not to its interest to mention other dormitories...
