"The present standard of labor for! 

 many lazy and unambitious young 

 men who spend four years in Harvard 

 College is deplorably low, or, in other 

 words, the standard which the college 

 Itself sets for mere pass work is so j 

 low that it can hardly be said to call 

 for labor in any proper sense." 



President Eliot says: "Ample demon- 

 stration has been given that any stu- 

 dent of respectable capacity can take 

 the degree of bachelor of arts (or bache- 

 lor of science since 1906) In three years, 

 meeting all the course requirements for 

 the degree."
