Excerpt from book: YE EXCOMMUNICATION OF YE GOOD POPE LUDIFEX 15 unlimited opportunity for the growth of whatever is good in its members. And in its freedom and central location it inevitably offers opportunity for evil to those who don't belong in it. Two Answers This, then, must be our only immediate answer to Mr. Crane and the other capable business men and fathers, numbering many thousands, who believe that four years at college contain more harm than good: What you really want at college you are pretty sure to get. But the ultimate answer to the controversy can, of course, be given only by the college men themselves. A clean, efficient record of joyous service from graduates the country over is the only thing that can convince fair minded people that four years at college is on the whole worth while for those who want it. The question is being answered altogether too strongly by college graduates in business and in politics who, through ignorance or for profit, are helping to maintain our system of political corruption and social inequality and misery. It is being answered, too, by those who have somehow chosen to retain their boyish ideals of justice and decency which they picked up at college. And finally it is being answered and must much more be answered by those at present in college, and by the freshman class every year entering it. These men must know from the start that there is real evil and real good here, and that in the last analysis college education can be only what college men make it. H. K. Moderwell. YE EXCOMMUNICATION OF YE GOOD POPE LUDIFEX I sing of goodlie Ludifex who ruled ye Vatican. He was as pious, learned Pope as ever hoist ye can And his favorite diversion was engaging in debate Ye doughtie Knights
