Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Kermit Roosevelt

President Roosevelt finds it a great comfort that his elder son, Kermit Roosevelt, is caring for his younger son, Archibald B. Roosevelt, while they are away at school. President Roosevelt gives Kermit advice on what he should do upon graduating. He believes it would only help Kermit to attend Harvard College for three years, and that going immediately into a career would not be beneficial because he is still young and inexperienced. Roosevelt encourages Kermit to seek advice from others, but emphasizes that college will help him mature and will benefit him in the long-run.
