LINKING GRADUATES.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In unanimously voting to subscribe as a whole to the Alumni Bulletin, the Senior class has taken a praiseworthy step. For every man who takes a degree with the class the Senior officers are authorized to take out a subscription for the Bulletin. In paying for these subscriptions the class funds are to be used only in the case of a member's declaring himself unable to pay on his own account.

This action on the part of the Senior class has real and apparent merit. It will afford a means of keeping in touch with the members of one's class, with other graduates, and with the undergraduates. Interest in the life of the University will thus be sustained and a closer bond of union between all Harvard men will be encouragea.

Not only will class spirit be cemented, but the close sympathy and support so vital to the life of the University will be gained. The contact of the average graduate with the alma mater is not intimate, and in the active life of the business world the tendency to drift away from college affairs is marked. No more acutely was this realized than in the recent work on the Endowment Fund.

We owe to Harvard a loyalty that should not cease with the acquisition of a diploma. Any means of sustaining a more intimate connection of the graduate with the University should meet with the heartiest approval. Future graduating classes will do well to follow the policy of 1920.
