...flagrant offender in this regard has been History 2, covering during the first half year the period from the French Revolution to the fall of the Second Empire. The assignment for the December Hour consisted of reading from relevant parts of a half dozen books. One strongly recommended for the examination was Marriot's "Revolution of 1848", a single copy of which was placed at the desk in the Reading Room a week before. Assuming a constant demand for the book, it could be used for roughly 300 hours during the three weeks notice given. With approximately...
...actual examination Monday was divided into three parts, ostensibly allowing one-third of an hour for each division. The second question required an essay on the July Monarchy, in other words, the history of France from 1830 to 1848, giving the men 20 minutes to write on a question covering one fourth of the time treated in the first half year...

The question is would this be worthwhile in order to secure perhaps twenty-five or thirty votes more? Would...
These elections are purely a student affair. It is up to the students themselves to show interest. One cannot expect a committee to sacrifice the time and expense to arouse enthusiasm and to solicit the attention of members of another class to vote for officers of this other class. If a man has enough interest to vote surely he can find it convenient to go to one of three places sometime during an entire morning. Those who have not sufficient interest need not be surprised at the outcome nor take it upon themselves to criticize a result which indeed they...
