To the Editors of the Crimson:
Two year's ago some graduates of Harvard, who realized the lack of unity in our college life, proposed the formation of a University Club. An effort to get an expression of undergraduate opinion on the project resulted in a few indifferent criticisms. As no enthusiasm was awakened, the matter, for the time was dropped. Since then a more lively feeling seems to have arisen. At various gatherings of students a strong sentiment of dissatisfaction with present social conditions and eagerness for some practicable reform has been apparent. The most practicable plan yet presented is that of a University Club. Every one knows, however, that such a club, to be of any service, must be backed by the hearty enthusiasm of every man in the University. The moment the graduates feel that such enthusiasm exists, it will become possible to secure the necessary subscriptions. It seems to me that the time is ripe for some active measures to bring all this latent feeling to a head. A vigorous canvass of the College, followed by a rousing mass meeting would give some authority to those who desire to make the club a reality.
