...note that the new Rank List, instead of being arranged by subjects, will be arranged by names of individuals in alphabetical order. Under the name of each man will appear the subjects in which he has attained honor grades, with the mark he has received in each. This seems to us an improvement over the present system. The pamphlet is primarily intended for the perusal of parents and others vitally interested in their sons' or friends' progress; and for such it will be more easily consulted in its new form.

These lectures sometimes receive invitations from the leading universities to speak in the academic halls, and such an honor has been extended this time to Professor Paszkowskie by Harvard University.

Certainly the Herald's deduction is more nearly the truth than this supposition, but still further investigation...
...graduated from College with a plain degree-that is without a "cum laude"-38 out of 577, or 6.6 per cent, obtained "cum laude" in the Law School. Of those who graduated from College with a "cum laude", 66 out of 290, or 22.7 percent., won this honor in the Law School; of those who graduated from college with a "magna cum laude", 80 out of 204, or 39.2 percent; and of those who graduated with a "summa cum laude," 22 out of 34, or 64.7 per cent...
