...prominent Princeton senior, in an able article published in the initial number of The Student and Statesman, assume a false premise, viz., that the inter-collegiate contests affect but a small number of men. It is time that those who understand from daily experience the actual working of the whole system, should have a hearing. The inter-collegiate contest is the main point of attack.

At the beginning of 1883 the under graduates numbered 969. The Western boys in 1869 formed about 8 per cent, of the whole roll, but now they formed more than 12 per cent. Forty-eight courses were offered in 1869 and 160 in 1883. America, with Harvard in the lead, was gradually reaching a position where she could compete with such nations as England. Germany, and France in the matter of colleges. Professor...
