Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from Amherst Memories: A Collection of Undergraduate Verse of Amherst College College Verse, like College Song, has a flavor peculiar to itself. Exalted literary merits cannot be claimed for it, - the average undergraduate, even the extraordinary undergraduate who writes College Verse, has, as a rule, neither ideas especially worthy perpetuation nor dexterity of style for their expression, - and the work he turns out may appear to mature and impartial critics to be very crude and boyish. It would be inversion of the natural order of mental growth if such crudity were not found in writers so young as these. Nevertheless, by intelligent critics, College Verse is not absolutely to be condemned. Pretentious work of any sort is beyond the powers of student versifiers.
