...naval service before receiving their degrees certificates testifying to their attendance at the University and their work done as candidates for those degrees. It was also voted to grant similar certificates as to their eligibility for a degree to men who have passed their entrance examinations but have never registered at the University because of having enlisted in military or naval service.

The protection of society demands that killing be the reward of those whom no other form of punishment can restrain from nefarious ways. Foremost in this class stand the spies within a nation at war. When that nation is forced to devote every energy in a conflict which threatens...
