Many students have come in contact with Professor Albert Feuillerat in his half-year of teaching at the University, and have admired his knowledge and his personality. That he found his students "intelligent and responsive" is proof enough that he knew well how to teach and to direct them. His presence at the University adds to the favorable impression which the system of exchange professorships has already created.

It is always good for any group to receive new suggestions from outside, either as to knowledge, or the method of acquiring it. And of late years French scholarship and research methods have done much to broaden the horizon of literary men the world over. German scholarship was long considered supreme, with its careful, obsequious attention to detail, and its exhaustive thoroughness. But in the last century a French influence made itself felt, broadening the conception of the world "research". A group of French scholars achieved success which surpassed the reputation of the German, and helped to bring about the sort of research work conducted at present.

Ideas are the merchandise of learning. Professor Feuillerat brought the inherited ideas of French scholarship, as well as his own. He leaves for home with his mission accomplished, and with the good wishes of his students and an associates.
