...discussed. But we do consider it imperative that all who are in any doubt whatever concerning the courses which they propose to elect for the coming year should fully understand and appreciate the importance of a just and conscientious decision with regard to their future studies.

But the instructors are hard to get at, and the result is that many men choose their courses at random, or on the warped advice of personal friends.
