The Opening Address

As this issue goes to press it proves possible to insert a final, though quite brief, note among these random comments, to compliment President Hopkins on his address opening the 167th year of the College. Speaking somewhat more to the undergraduates than has often been true, he stirred the student body with vigorous challenges. "It is to you men who have put away childish things in the field of learning that I wish to speak," he said. Again the President showed his rare ability to challenge the undergraduates and faculty through a discussion of college problems, interpreted by an educational leader who is finely attuned to affairs of the "out- side world."
