Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Brown Alumni Monthly, Vol. 45: March, 1945
That IS the structure of Brown University. Without violating the fundamental law by which we are governed, practical expedients have opened the way for the faculty, the students, and the alumni to play roles which were not foreseen in 1764. In no other American institution, how' ever, is the structure so completely dependent upon mutual respect and forbearance. Without active cooperation the whole structure falls apart.
The balance between the several elements is in a peculiar degree a balance maintained by absorption in the funda' mental educational purposes of the institution. In no other American university is success so utterly conditioned by maintenance of those essential aims in right perspective.
