President Meiklejohn's suggestions can hardly be called plans as yet, but if put into practice they will go even farther than the scheme now in vogue at Harvard. It will not be enough for the Amherst undergraduate to satisfy each individual professor as to his proficiency in particular subjects. At the close of his sophomore year he will be required to demonstrate by the range of his knowledge and ability that he is getting something worth while out of the college.

But surely she should not be admitted until she has satisfied all the other contracting nations...
...sports to be chosen for the class will be varied enough to suit the tastes of every individual, but preference will be given to out-of-door sports and competitive games. Also forms of exercise which can be kept up easily until late in life will be selected as well as those which are difficult to continue after leaving college, on account of the elaborate equipment or large number of contestants required. According to such plans, rowing, tennis, hockey, swimming, track events, and soccer will be encouraged, and in winter basketball, squash and squash racquets, boxing, fencing, wrestling and gymnasium...
