Lest We Forget . . .

Last we forget what has happened in this 1936-1937 academic year . . . . last we forget what has appeared in column five every morning, it might be well to summarize the events of the last year. Political, social, economic, and academic events they are, and some of us will no doubt remember that we were once dismayed by the fact that the country had all "gone Roosevelt", shocked by the dismissal of Walsh and Sweezy, or jubliant over a swimming team that beat Yale.
