...Dana was chosen Chairman, and E. M. Hartwell, Secretary. The business went on smoothly, and many important decisions were made. Among them these are the most important: that each boat shall start from an anchored boat; if the race is postponed from the time appointed, it shall take place the next pleasant afternoon; that a single scull race shall be held, open to men of all colleges in the Association, provided three entries be made before June 20.

Why is it that students electing this course are never given an opportunity of inspecting specimens of metals, fossils, and rocks, to which continual reference is made, and the description of which forms no small portion of the work used as a text-book? Students are compelled to learn the classification of rocks, their various subdivisions, and the numerous qualities of many in their simple state, and of some after they have been changed by subterraneous action...
