...morrow evening the first college service of the year will be held in Appleton Chapel under the auspices of Prof. Peabody and his five colleagues. We trust that on this occasion the gentlemen who are to conduct the religious services of the colleges throughout the coming year may be encouraged and supported by the presence of a large number of students. The success of the new regime is wholly dependent upon the support given it by the students at whose desire it has been instituted; and unless they show a warm interest in the efforts of the religious directors...
...august members of the sophomore class at which symposium the freshman hosts should prepare themselves for either use or entertainment. Of course these notices are accompanied with the usual threats in case of their refusal. It may occur to many of our modern student readers to wonder how such conduct could be reconciled with the principles which even in those darkened days must have been present with the perpetrators, and where the boundary-line ran between it and the highway assault and robbery.

...each recurring examination period, an abuse which has long existed becomes especially irritating. Time after time we have censured the carelessness of some students with regard to their conduct in the library. Loud talk and noisy shuffling has become with some men a positive habit. Within the last two days, certain students have been the cause of great annoyance to the readers by their careless method of work. This subject is discussed and censured twice a year regularly, but each time the abuse is revived. Such a practice cannot be too severely rebuked. The selfishness displayed is peculiarly irritating...
