...certainly too early to say just what will be the organization and sphere of this student committee. We venture, however, to predict that it will not be an Amherst Senate to have charge of the discipline of the college. We want a conference committee, and a committee which, unlike the conference committee of Harvard, shall be their own judge of the time for meeting the committee of the faculty.

We want this taken seriously; - it will deprive us of many editorials in the future if it is, but we are willing to sacrifice them to the public good...
...method of gaining this strength was stated as in the classics, by educating teachers. The true method of making a college popular is in showing to the active world the fruits of a college education. The college that can point to a host of illustrious alumni will not want for students, even if the preparatory schools are filled with teachers who have graduated from a rival college...
