SEE CAMBRIDGE FIRST

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The year is all but over and many among us are leaving Cambridge without knowing half of the University. We can all find our way to Sever and University, but how many of us have seen the glass flowers in the University Museum or have looked through the Fogg Art Gallery? Do you know the name of every building in the Yard and what do you know about the Law and Divinity Schools?

We have here in the Fogg Museum one of the best small art collections in the country; the glass flowers in the University Museum are absolutely unique, and still we are apt to ignore such opportunities and go only to the buildings where classes make it necessary for us to appear. This type of laziness is inexcusable, yet is is a prevalent failing. To leave Harvard without getting the maximum from it is an intellectual crime. Unfortunately we are better acquainted with the interiors of the Washington street movies than of our own university. There is one week left before Class Day; make use of it and get to know Harvard!
