The College Press
Ten Years Ago
A professor had recently issued
the statement that he intended to
buy a goat to feed on the freshman
themes and he had been beseiged on
all sides about his goat-feeding the
ory. It was said that packing houses
all over the country had offered him
goats guaranteed to be in perfect
condition, with the traditional cast
iron goat stomach in perfect working
order. 'The article went on to say
that the experiment might be of great
benefit to the students working their
way through school as "instead of
having their themes ignominously
consigned to the trash heap, they
might sell them to goat raisers and
in that way reap large and lucrative
rewards." One professor was heard
to remark that his freshman classes
could easily feed enough goats to
transport the German army clear to
Paris, giving each man a goat for

IN order to meet the demands of
college men graduating at mid
years, a regular course of study,
starting in February has been ar
ranged. The curriculum is the same
as that for fall entrants: the require

"Give me a log with Mark Hopkins at one end
of it and myself at the other," said, in effect.
President Garfield, "and I would not want a
better college."
But if Mark Hopkins was an inspired teacher, It
is just as true that James A. Garfield was an inspir
ing student.
Sometimes Garfield's praise of his professor is
quoted in disparagement of present day faculties
the assumption being that we as listeners are
sympathetic, all that we ought to be and that
it is the teacher who has lost his vision.
Is this often the case?
It is the recollection of one graduate at least
that he did not give his professors a chance. Cold to
their enthusiasms, he was prone to regard those
men more in the light of animated text-books
than as human beings able and eager to expound
their art or to go beyond it into the realm of his
own personal problems.
This is a man to man proposition. Each has to go
halfway. Remember, there are two endstothelog.
