N the great family of American univer- sities California is a young, if healthy, daughter. By virtue of her isolated situation on the Pacific Coast she is estranged to no small degree from her sisters. In meeting her problems and formulating her tradi- tions she needs the advice and inspiration of the older members of the family. To attain this end and to draw closer the family tie this book has published articles by the presidents of some of her famous sister institutions. In these articles are em- bodied the ideals and the spirit of each university. We may glean much good from their content; we may compare our aims with theirs, and so find means for our own betterment. To President Hadley of Yale, Mr. Philips of Harvard, President Van Hise of Wisconsin and President Vincent of Minnesota we are in no small measure indebted. In the arduous curriculum of administration they have found time to aid us, and w r e are thankful to them. May we profit by their friendship.
