...need for such gatherings is obvious. Smith Hall is one world, Standish is another, and Gore yet another. Communication between these is open only to those who participate in class activities. This number at best is relatively few. The result is a deplorable lack of class intimacy and solidarity for which a single smoker and jubilee at the end of the year cannot make up. Informal gatherings every second or third week would do much to remedy this...
...educated; if the curriculum is education, why then, Phi Beta Kappa is the mark of success in curricular pursuits--and most to be desired.

Undergraduates of scientific inclinations have at present no opportunity of seeing in perspective the advantages offered by medical science. The college, in seeking to attain the proper fulfillment of its pre-professional role, cannot afford to negleet...
...upon his memory in the next term. A so-called introductory course that leaves behind it a group of disappointed students who are wary of similar courses in spite of the advantages which should be gained by their study, cannot but call forth criticism in the hope that the obvious remedy will be applied...
