...CRIMSON:-In your issue of Tuesday, a communication signed by "Unfortunates in Eng. 7," complained that "the lecture devoted to Gay and Prior" was "required for the examination." It was claimed that "notice was given" that these lectures would not be required. We are sorry for the "Unfortunates," but fear that the trouble is their own misfortune.

But whatever the attitude of the students may be towards the Annex, the professors surely, look upon it with the greatest favor. Prof. Byerly...
...University library building where the donated books could be most safely, economically, and usefully preserved. The question of improvements in Gore Hall has been so long before the college that we have approached it with much hesitance, and have only been led to speak of the matter through a fear that, in the desire of the university to secure to the Divinity School such a valuable addition to its library, the previous and more pressing claims of the University library to a recognition of its wants may be neglected...
