 which he received the doctorate.^ The total 

 influence of Harvard is 237, of the Johns 

 Hopkins 171, of Yale 93, of Columbia 78 and 

 of Cornell 74. About one tenth of the men 

 of science received their bachelor's degree from 

 Harvard and about the same number their 

 doctor's degree from the Johns Hopkins. It 

 is not certain that a preponderance of scien- 

 ^The doctorates include the comparatively few 

 cases in which the degree of doctor of science has 

 been conferred in course.

tific men has been produced at any institution 

 as compared with the total number of stu- 

 dents, and it appears that those who attend 

 the larger universities are not of higher av- 

 erage performance than others. Thus of the 

 106 who have taken the bachelor's degree at 

 Harvard, 55 are in the first rank and 51 in 

 the second. Yale, Cornell and Michigan have 

 produced men above the average rank, and the 

 excess is such that it is probably significant, 

 though the departures fall within the limits 

 of possible chance variation. On the whole.
