Excerpt from Under the Princeton Elms and the Princeton IdeaHow Often have we thrown down our books and sought relief for weary brain in its inexhaustible resources! Does anyone Wish a little practice at his favorite sport? Let him go out on the Campus and meet a lot of fellows looking for the same thing. Does he want a companion for a walk, or a party for a quiet game in his room? He can find them on the Campus. Does he long for the pleasure of a pure and simple loaf? He may join the groups in front of Old North and forget the ills of life in the careless drift of college chat. One can't help getting acquainted. Yale and Harvard men have told me that they have gone through their course knowing only a dozen or so men. Nearly every man here is acquainted with his whole class, and is on speaking terms with half the college. Our dormitories are nothing but big club-houses, and the Campus is simply an extension built out into the open air.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
