...study for the four years embrace about as much classical reading as men do here in the advanced sections of the Freshman year, and as much mathematics as is required in our lowest divisions. We are pleased to learn that Rhetoricals are continued throughout the four years, and though our ideas about them are a trifle vague, we fancy they are very instructive.

It may be that they fail to perceive the importance of the strains of the hand-organ as a soothing stimulation to study. It may appear to them that such music has a kinship with lolling...
