"INFORMATION, PLEASE"

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Every year a large number of men come to Harvard with only vague ideas as to what sort of a place the University is, and with no friends, who do know, to tell them. The problem of becoming acquainted with the institution itself is, for such men, at best difficult. In the past they have had to go for information to two official publications, one a very condensed description of the University, and the other the cumbersome general catalogue. The first is altogether too meagre, and in the second what information can be found is buried in a mass of facts irrelevant to the immediate needs of the newcomer.
