Excerpt from From School Through College
The thought of writing a small book for college students first came to me when I was invited to address the graduating class of the Hotchkiss School. It was evident that there was no more important subject for young men just passing from school to college than the right use of the years of study immediately before them, and the address took the form of suggestions such as would have helped me at the beginning of my Freshman year. That address was the basis of the present volume.
The college offers such large opportunities in the way of a preparation for life that it is a pity that any one who can have them should miss them, or that those who have them should fail to get their full benefit. I have spent all my active life in work with students, and during twenty-five years in the Dean"s Office of Yale College a very pleasant part of my service was to give friendly counsel to hundreds of young men who came to me with their difficulties, ambitions, sorrows, and temptations.
