No one of our government, – no – not even a student is so universally admired in college, as he is. His “sayings and doings” are altogether different from anything we have hitherto met with from our instructers and officers of college. He associates with us as if he were one of us – he visits us at our rooms and we visit him at his: – so that the formality, which has heretofore existed between the officers and students of college is fast wearing out of use, and giving place to a more agreeable, – and doubtless a profitable, – familiarity.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow to his mother, April 6, 1825
