When a man comes to Harvard and enrolls himself as a Harvard student, he takes upon himself the responsibility of keeping up the good name of the University. This is no empty or nominal responsibility, but an absolute command of honor that where a man is in any position to pose as a representative of Harvard he must behave himself like a Harvard gentleman. This all important principle was thrown aside yesterday in a way that is more than likely to do a great deal of harm to the University. The men who made such a disgraceful spectacle of themselves in Memorial Hall yesterday besides behaving worse than children did one of those things which in itself casts a slur upon the Harvard character and which with all of the necessary exaggerations added is sure to do so much harm to the college abroad. If men are not well bred enough to treat visitors as they should be treated, it seems high time that the gallery of Memorial should be closed during meal time.
