The New Yorker Staats-Zeitung, reporting on a survey undertaken in forty large American universities and colleges from New York to California, has announced that German departments of the institutions had not suffered from the present political condition of Germany. The newspaper said that a large majority of professors and leaders of German student clubs reported their departments more popular than ever with American students.
In many instances the spokesmen declared that students were not particularly concerned with conditions in Germany otherwise than as an objective study. As far as could be learned from the reports of the savants little attention was being paid the boycott of German goods in all but a few of the colleges.
