Some one, we suspect a member of the graduate department, has written a Harvard letter to one of our contemporaries from the far West which we feel it almost beneath us to notice. This person has undertaken to deal sarcastically with our manner of living and with the financial management of the University, and has made it appear that Harvard is intolerable in the extreme. He pictures a state of affairs which would be ridiculous in any college and which is far from what we enjoy. We do not want graduates of other colleges to come to Harvard who cannot feel the spirit of the institution, and who, not taking the trouble to learn the whole truth, send home a letter of falsehoods and misrepresentations. It would be better to have no graduate department than to have such men here.
