Page 842 - ... that the seeking of a college education on the part of women does not in itself necessarily entail a loss of health or serious impairment of the vital forces.
Page 928 - I perceive this important advantage in the proposed organization — namely, that those who engage in it will mutually encourage each other. It will give the members a common pursuit, which always begets a feeling of brotherhood; they will have a common topic of conversation and discussion, and the consequence will be that many who, if they stood alone, might grow weary of the studies which are recommended to them, will be incited to perseverance by the interest which they see others taking in them.
