Last year, the students were engaged in the usual college activities, dallying with lessons and athletics; now they are engrossed entirely in the war and things military. Three-fourths of the news published in the daily undergraduate paper pertains to the European battlefront and eulogies on peace. A commissioned lieutenant is military editor of the paper. Intercollegiate athletics have been officially abandoned by a decree of the university's athletic directorate. Over one thousand graduates and undergraduates of the University of Toronto...
