1764年的一个深夜,一场大火烧毁了哈佛图书馆,大量珍贵书籍毁于一旦。这场突发的火灾把一名普通学生推到了一个特殊的位置,逼迫他做出选择。在这之前,他违反图书馆规则,悄悄把一位牧师捐赠的一本书带出馆外,准备阅读完后再归还。突然之间,这本书就成为了捐赠给哈佛图书馆的250本书中唯一的珍本。经过一番激烈的思想斗争,这位惴惴不安的学生终于敲开了校长办公室的大门。霍里厄克校长收下书后表示感谢,并对学生的勇气和诚实予以褒奖,然后又把他开除出了学校。因为哈佛的理念是:让校规看守哈佛,比用其它东西看守哈佛更安全有效。
One night in 1764, a fire destroyed the Harvard Library, a large number of precious books destroyed. The sudden fire pushed an average student to a special position, forcing him to make a choice. Before that, he violated the rules of the library and quietly took a book donated by a pastor out of the library and prepared to read it before returning it. Suddenly, the book became the only rare book in 250 books donated to the Harvard Library. After a fierce ideological struggle, the restless student finally knocked on the headmaster’s office. President Holieck expressed his thanks after receiving the book, praised the courage and honesty of the student, and then expelled him from school. Because Harvard’s philosophy is: let the school rules guarding Harvard, Harvard is safer and more effective than watching other things Harvard.
