During the day the glass has been out of one half the window, and the result has been that at every meal the cold northeast wind has blown in and caused those at the west end of the hall either to shiver as they ate, or else wear their hats and overcoats. It is an imposition on the students thus carelessly to subject them to such cold draughts as an east wind brings through so large an opening...
