Co-education seems to be making a general advance all along the line. The following note from John G. Whittier has been written to a brother trustee of Brown University: "I hope the time is not far distant when Brown University will be open to women. The traditions of the noble old institution are all in favor of broad liberality and equality of rights and privileges. The state of my health and the increasing weight of years may prevent me from taking an active part in the matter, but it would be a great satisfaction to give my voice in behalf of a measure which I feel certain would redound to the honor and materially promote the prosperity of the college. Brown University cannot afford to hesitate much longer in a matter like this of simple justice. No one who has felt the pulse of public opinion can doubt that the time has come when a liberal educational policy, irrespective of sex, is not only a duty but a necessity."
