...some other authority in case he does not room in a Proctor's building; this provision is made to prevent non-residence of students. We should be glad to see real voluntaries given to the College, which of course means the abolition of a meaningless roll-call, but cannot judge of the system of registration until further details are made public. If the penalties for non-registration are to be more severe than for absence at a recitation, it would press hard on all students who use a day on which they have one or no recitations for some needed...

The damage done the building is estimated at $2,000; the loss of the students in furniture, though not large, cannot be easily estimated...
