...Fast Day comes this year on Thursday, April 5th-in Easter week that is-so that our vacation will not begin until the middle of Easter week. Why could not the faculty be induced to let us have the whole of Easter week? To those of us who live away from Boston, it is a pleasant thing to be able to pass Easter and the following week at home. Besides it makes a very fair break in the time between January 1st and July 1st. The proposal seems to meet with great favor among many of the undergraduates, and there...
...correspondent suggests that the spring vacation be changed so as to include Easter Sunday. The suggestion is a good one, and the adoption of it would be a boon to such of us as live in other cities than Boston. Those who live here all the year round can be at home on Easter Day.

...largest, gets the greatest share. There is a natural hostility between college-bred men and those who are "self-made," to which class belong the majority of journalists, and this enmity expends itself in spreading false rumors and injurious statements. The only thing that we can do is to live down this bad reputation by conducting ourselves properly as students and as graduates, and by spreading a know ledge of the true state of things whenever there is a chance. This way is already being taken, and we may be confident that we shall yet succeed completely...
