Excerpt from Forty-Second Annual Report of the President of Harvard College to the Overseers, Exhibiting the State of the Institution: For the Academical Year 1867-68
The President has long been impressed with a conviction that the wealth Of the University is greatly over-estimated by her friends and by the public, and that the congratulatory tone usually employed when speaking of her affairs is founded on error. She is not wealthy; partly because she has control over only a limited portion of her income. The greater part of her funds are given on strict and inviolable conditions, and are not applicable to the new emergencies of the times.
