Excerpt from College Life: Essays Reprinted From "School, College, and Character" And "Routine and Ideals" College life is the supreme privilege of youth. Rich men's sons from private schools may take it carelessly, as some thing to enjoy unearned, like their own daily bread; yet the true title to it is the title earned in college day by day. The privilege of entering college admits to the privilege of deserving college; col lege life belongs to the great things, at once joyous and solemn, that are not to be entered into lightly.
