Abstract
Sermon notes by Edward Hitchcock for a sermon delivered at Amherst College in October 1834. The notes focus on the idea that the more privileges a person has, the more that is expected of them. Hitchcock lists several privileges that those at Amherst College have by virtue of being members of the college and also by virtue of being citizens of the United States. He then outlines what is therefore expected of them, including that they must set an example to the world, they must have higher piety, and revivals of religion should be more frequent at the college than elsewhere. Luke 12:48 is quoted.
