Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Present and Future of Harvard College: An Address Delivered Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society at Cambridge, Mass;, June 23, 1891
The first thing that struck me when I began to teach here in 1856 was what I had felt as a grievance as an undergraduate, that under the required system the standard of scholarship in each study was set, not by what the best and most enthusiastic scholars could do.
