The Rev. Sherard Billings Speaks

"Become interested in some line of work and make yourself eminent in it", was the advice given in a talk last night to Freshmen by the Reverend Sherard Billings '80. Assistant Headmaster of Groton School.

Though textbooks are the most important things in college life, said Mr. Billings, there are other things in which a man should be interested. There are activities here which give such an opportunity of broadening a man's mind that it may be said that to be a Harvard man is the greatest privilege in America today.
