Possibly the proposed plan will not be approved, possibly it will be amended. But whatever its particular failings and whatever its forte it deserves great consideration for it goes to the root of the matter. It looks in the right direction--towards the creation of a council which will represent not only the bodies but the minds of the undergraduates. --From the Harvard CRIMSON, February...
...Here too much is obscure, and too often the assignment of routine courses replaces careful faculty consideration. Too much is mechanical; too little is personal. It is easier to tell a man to take the traditional courses-unexciting, shallow, and often repetitious survey courses-than to conclude that this particular man could well be allowed to do much of this work on his own-reading and listening and talking where he can profit most.

The group sang Mabel Daniels' new Carol of a Rose. The selection, with words from a fifteenth century Flemish poem, was quite unexciting. The highpoint of the Choral Society's performance was a full and lively rendition of Schubert's Valses Nobles...
