...sure, in Germany, the two offices have been differentiated by the gymnasium and the university: but, in the latter, in recent times, there is a manifest return to old-fashioned tutorial methods in the institutions of the so-called Seminar, where professor and student are once more brought to gather as master and pupil. Harvard College has never departed altogether from the scholastic system upon which the institution was founded. In the maintenance of the classics, the lecture-system, tutors, examinations and recitations, as well as of religious exercises, and of moral restraints, this university has held fast things that...

EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- I think everybody in college will be interested to know that a freshman who has been in Cambridge a whole month now seems to think it the correct thing to gather unto himself a few kindred spirits and hold a delightful musicale at three o'clock in the morning. This happened Sunday night, or rather Monday morning last, in one of Hillton's dormitories. The performers rendered, among other things, "Fifteen Dollars in My Inside Pocket;" selections from the "Corsair" in duets, trios, etc., with piano accompaniment, as well as solos in falsetto-probably in blissful ignorance...

...time was when small knots of men used to gather in the yard and sing popular college melodies; but that time seems to have passed for good and all, and the Glee Club ought to make up the loss by singing oftener.

It is to be hoped that these few words of ours will have the effect of rousing the Glee...

...rooms will be thrown open in May, with an appropriate recognition of the event. This new movement on the part of the club has been largely suggested by the number of young men coming into the club, who, it was thought, would appreciate club-rooms where they might gather for social purposes. For graduates of Harvard living out of town it will also prove a great convenience, furnishing a place for them to drop in during their vitits to the city. Such non resident members are now on roll from the East and West as far as Dakota. With...

About twenty Yale students of the various classes have for the past few weeks made up their minds that they would gather together the "convicts," or in other words those who had been arrested. So Monday night a banquet was held at Gus Traeger's. There were twenty covers and an elaborate menu. The guests were those who had been arrested and had paid fines during the year. They were not known by name, but by number. They filed into the dining hall in the usual lockstep used in the penitentiaries. Such toasts as "Cops," "Nippers," "Bail," "Jugs," "Bars," "Beak...
