Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Harvard College: Class of 1883 To the Class of Eighty-three: The report which I have the honor as your Secretary to present to you has been somewhat delayed, partly by my own illness, partly by those who, although frequently urged, have not replied to my circulars, and by those who neglected to supply promised information. In its preparation I have followed mainly the conventional lines furnished by the complete reports of the last four years, with one distinct exception, namely, the omission of the page containing the measurements of the Class. These tables have been necessarily so imperfect and so nearly worthless as standards of comparison that I have felt justified in discarding them, notwithstanding the violation of precedent. On the other hand, I have amplified wherever the interest of the Class seemed to me directly affected. An example of this may be found in the "Class Review," which, although somewhat self-laudatory, is intended for no eyes but your own, and may, perhaps, prove a not unwelcome oasis amid the desert of general statistics. With regard to the complete list of the Class, I have followed the Secretary of 1882 in what has seemed to me his excellent arrangement. In this report the first list of the Class, page 1, et. seq., contains, as it should, the names of those who graduated with Eighty-three, and not merely of those who were regular members during Senior year. The same method has been pursued in the statistics relating to "probable occupation," etc., the necessity of resorting to a double column, representing graduate and regular members, having been obviated by the fact that everyone regularly connected with the Senior Class received his degree.
