...life of the specialist who makes the wheels of the modern day go 'round. The competition of this age may demand a reorganization of our schools. But the direction of that revision as Professor Rand has recently suggested, might better be back to the old fundamentals brought up to date with a philosophy of modern science. Some such move as this might by raising the standards, take care of the excessive competition, and at the same time insure the intellectual stability of university graduates...
...admirable success of the Housing Trust to date should indicate that there is no need for the University itself to take definite measures to provide homes for its faculty except in special cases. Obviously the home for the head of the Business School is a special case. Its close relation to the other buildings of the school will enable the Dean to keep in close touch with his affairs and will render easy the duties of "landlording" required from the University.

The Trustees have, in fact, often been ready to allow a Scholar who left at the end of two years to take the rest of his scholarship at some later date if he chose to return to Oxford. The scholars do not have to "sign articles" to remain any given time, or even to do any given work. When the note to Dean Nichols reads "tenable specifically for three years", it means, I presume, that the appointment is for that time...
