Human nature is strangely similar wherever we find it. The college undergraduate does not differ widely in characteristics whether we meet him in California or Massachusetts; in Michigan or Mississippi. The deductions which are contained in these essays are drawn from an intimate and an extended association with undergraduate students at the University of Illinois; they might, however, have been written at any other institution where similarly close relationships were possible.
Urbana, Illinois.
