...ideal arrangement would provide reading-room capacity equal to allowing the whole student body to be in the reading rooms at one time. So it was from the building of Austin Hall down to 1891-1892.

At the very least there ought to be room for half of the student body at any one time, and plans should be made for reading-room space for all students.

They assert that character, personality, and promise will be given equal weight with scholarly attainment in passing upon each individual candidate,--always excepting, of course, the bracket above 75 percent which enters regardless,--but there is no direct explanation of the method by which these factors will be guaged. The unprecedented requirement of a photograph is one means; in all probability even greater importance will be attached to recommendations of headmasters of schools. But the ruling foreshadows still another innovation. Some system of personal examination, particularly in doubtful cases, appears a necessary...
