Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 8: October, 1900-June, 1901 There are two great essentials Of that power Of dealing with life which I defined a little while ago knowledge of self, and knowledge Of human nature. The great value Of the college life, to my mind, is the way in which it forces upon every par ticipant in it some knowledge at least Of these two great reali ties. If, looking back upon her four years' course, the gradu ate can feel that despite her many mistakes and failures and follies, She has laid firm hold on the first Of these two great essentials. The knowledge of self, has come to understand, once for all, her own powers, limitations, and capacities; and has begun to grasp the meaning Of the second, to understand some thing Of the richness and fullness and marvelousness Of human nature, - then she has reason to be profoundly grateful for all the experiences that have forced upon her the knowledge Of these things.
