...every cherished Harvard custom there is an almost equally cherished complaint. The perennial complaint concerning the Junior Dance again reaches our ears; and the fact that he who is not a member of the Union will be forced to become one at the cost of ten dollars before he can attend the Dance has lost none of its attractiveness as a subject for criticism. The dissatisfied claim that the Dance should be held somewhere else, the membership fee temporarily lowered, or the requirement of membership suspended...
