Dartmouth President
Reviews Changing
Of College Conditions

Hanover, n. H., Oct. 6.-Ernest Mar
tin Hopkins, inaugurated as the 18th
president of Dartmouth College with
formal exercises today, took occasion
to express views concerning changing
conditions in the colleges of the coun-
try.
The trend that had turned college
men in greater numbers from the pro-
LESSONS to business and industry,
which heb in1self left few months
ago to assume the professional duties
of college executive. was a princi- IL
subject OF his address. "In train. q
for leadership the influence of the &C..
lege in years past, unconsciously per-
haps. has been to set college men apart
in the communities in which they
lived" he said. THE requirement now
is emphatically the reverse. The change
has been wrought very quickly, that
the men now going into the professions
from our colleges are far outnumber-
ed by those seeking the newer career
I'VE have seen people specialized so
completely in recent years on claiming
rights that our senses of obligation and
responsibility have become atrophied
Authority has been weakened not only
in state and church, but in home and
school until it commands less respect
even than obedience. Amid all this,
somehow, the conviction has begun to
grow that dilettante philosophizing
about rights, and claims to opportu-
mites which have not been earned Of
fer too little compensation in con-
structive accomplishments for which
society is called upon to sacrifice in
favor of the individuals who compose
it, through being SO little called upon
to acknowledge any authority of any
kind whatsoever"

The end. in his opinion. sis construc-
tive idealism interpreted in terms of

as high minded conservation to the
needs of the state. Development of
our national life has been shown to
he far short of the standard to which
it was supposed to have attained, and
in many of our attributes, we have
been proved more group Of people
than a nation.
Upon the colleges now rests a re-
SponSibil1ty that they Shall be sensitive
to the new note which is beginning to
sound in our national affairs as paro-
chialism becomes less and less char
acteristic. and as we come to recognize
our inevitable responsibility among the
nations of the earth
"A wide and rapidly increasing seri-
BUSINESS is abroad in the EARTH" Pres
ident Hopkins said, Ito the effect of
which We as nation must respond.
1T seems probable that the first point
at which we shall be called upon to
define our attitude is on the conten-
ton that all education, to be worth
while. mustsbe made more unitarian.
Evidence abounds that the National
riendencies Il, great nations are in the
direction Of an educational system Of
pure utility
Subsequently, President H p k ! n s
stated that: THE college cannot be in
herently either radical or conservative.

to correct the overswing Of the reac-
ton"
The alumni movement to further the
interests Of the colleges and the coun-
try. was Endorsed by the president.
THE growing practice Of retiring men
from active work at ages from IS to 20"
he continued. land the not infrequent
tragedy Of the man who has no resources
for interesting himself outside the rou.
tine of which he has been relieved, makes
it seem that the college has no less an
opportunity to be of service to its men
in their old age than in their youth. II
only 1t can establish the procedure by
which it can periodically throughout their
lives give them opportunity to replenish
their intellectual reserves. 1t Is possible
that something in the way of courses OF
lectures by certain recognized leaders of
alumni and friends of the college during
brief period immediate following the
commencement season, would be a step
in this direction, or 1t may he that some
other device would more completely real
ize the possibilities. 1t at least seems
clear that the formal educational con-
facts between the college and its grad
yates should not stop at the end of four
years, never in any form to be renewed"
DR.. Ernest Fox Nichols, who resigned
as president of the college, passed on to
the new executive a silver punch bowl
which had been handed down from the
founder of the college. Rev. Eleazer
Wheelock In behalf of the undergrad
uate body T. L. Cotton Of Hanover, pres
ident of the senior class. gave to the new
president an oath of allegiance. The SAL
utation of the state was extended by Gov

that President Hopkins was a native of
the state.

president was conducted by Rev. Francis

also a Dartmouth collge trustee.
