While these changes are under consideration we ought, as far as possible, to make known our feeling about them. Much as the wishes of undergraduates seem to be slighted, they are of importance, and if freely stated will have influence in College matters...
...find something to take their place, which the Faculty will not be apt to object to. Why can we not have such a subscription ball as Columbia is to have to aid her crew? There are men among the undergraduates who, assisted by graduates in Boston, could certainly make such a ball a grand success, financially and socially. We commend this idea to their attention.

As the result of a large number of inquiries, he found that the smallest annual expenditure was $471, and the largest $2,500. Since this wide range of expenditure gave insufficient data from which to make fair estimates, the President has prepared a table to exhibit four scales of annual expenditure. This table is restricted to the nine months of college life, and is, we think, a very fair estimate of college expenses...
