A marked copy of "The Crisis" Page 199 bears a pair of manicule stamps pointing to W. E. B. Du Bois' editorial rebuking Harvard University President A. Lawrence Lowell for segregating freshman dormitories. Page 218 is unmarked, but a section is entitled "Harvard and the Negro." Additional markings include a stamp and pencil combination that reads "Harvard College Library from the President's Office, Mar. 21 ,1923" which appears above the caption. "Marked copy" is stamped on the cover and "pp. 199 & 218" is penciled on cover. It is unclear who made the markings or how the journal was acquired by the President's Office. From the acquisition stamp in the library, we know that it was quickly transferred from the President's Office to the library.

Diary of Abram Piatt Andrew, 1902-1914

0.0 (0)

The diary entries are short, businesslike notations of daily activities, such as lunches and dinners, meetings, and attendance at performances or social events. They lack detail about the events and have no narrative of any length; however, they provide names of principal people and locations of activities, and occasionally titles of performances seen. The diary begins with Andrew's days as an instructor and assistant professor at Harvard and makes reference to his colleagues and students. The diary makes reference to his home and neighbors in Gloucester, Massachusetts as well as to his relatives, his career, and prominent figures of Andrew's day in education, the arts, politics, and society.

Mr. Chamberlain's reply to Adam's criticism of Classic Studies as being rooted in the past without connection to the present. Chamberlain delivered this address at Phillips Academy at some later date than the one at Harvard cited in the title. His arguement focuses on the skills in reasoning attained by the study of language.
