...have heard a great deal of grumbling on the part of the students in regard to the changes in the Elective Pamphlet, and their discontent seems justifiable. To a student who has mapped out his course of study after much thought and with much care, it is scarcely pleasant to read in the pamphlet that "such and such a course will not be given next year." This omission of courses has become far too common an occurrence, it seems to us. There is little use in urging the students "to make their choice with the utmost care" on the ground...

...spring regatta which was held at Lake Saltonstall last Saturday was a very pleasant affair.

The juniors secured a slight lead at first, but in their first spurt their bow had the misfortune to break his oar, which practically threw '89 out of the race. The contest between '90 and '91 for first place was exceedingly close throughout, each being alternately ahead. Ninety-one came in only a second behind '90. The University crew also entered the race...
