A MOUNTAIN FROM A MOLE HILL.

The Daily Princetonian has it that Harvard is yielding to the "shibboleth of commercialized undergraduate activities:" This is due to an unfortunate interpretation of a discussion held at a social service conference in Brooks House some time ago. There Mr. Philip Davis, director of the Civic Service House, Boston, suggested that social service work be credited toward a degree by the Faculty. The proposition was at once voted down by the undergraduates present, and there is no more likelihood of its being entertained here than that the work of managers will be recognized. Entirely aside from the point made by the Princetonian about commercializing philanthropy, neither social service work nor the activities of a manager belong in a College curriculum.
