EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: There is a general feeling of dissatisfaction among the students at some of the existing arrangements in the library. At present if a student is a half an hour late in returning reserved books, he looses his privilege of drawing books for a whole month. Thus a single lapse of memory may prevent him from drawing any reserved books during the entire examination period. This is a great injustice. A week would be an ample period of expiation.

These degrees likewise "take an individual variation of meaning for every one who wins them;" but no one will need to ask the winner...
...secure it in its permanent usefulness the school must now be intrusted to the care of a larger public. It is proposed to raise a general fund of a hundred thousand dollars for the development and endowment of the school and in particular to employ a director of the highest fitness and ability. Our readers need no introduction to the archaeologist, Charles Waldstein, a native of New York, but now connected with the University of Cambridge, England, and with the Fitzwilliam Museum. The committee in charge of the school wishes to redeem the character of America, and to secure...
