...time. If the present courses prove successful, as we have no doubt they will, and the other departments offer similar ones, a very considerable problem looms up in the near future. Can a student elect more than one such course at one time? It seems to us eminently proper that he should be allowed to do this. In our opinion an earnest man could carry two of these special courses, and do in each more than sufficient work to justify his being allowed to enter them. The actual amount of work done would, we think, be five or six times...

...Many are devoting their time to the study of political economy and history with the expressed determination of fitting themselves for a political career in the future. Others are paying less regard to these studies, yet still give to them such attention as they consider necessary for the proper performance, later in life, of the functions of citizenship. Nearly all, it may be said, have an appreciation of the responsibilities which are to rest upon them as educated men. Perhaps there is no necessity for urging the Harvard student to turn his course of study into these channels...

...says: "The annual encounter of the elevens of these two colleges seems to be looked to as affording "the pace" at which college foot-ball shall be carried on. Their last match at New Haven was universally commended as an uninterrupted and gentleman-like pursuit of the game proper, unattended by private fisticuffs or wrestling bouts of a brilliant but extra and unnecessary kind, and it was perhaps very greatly in consequence of the quality of this match that the recommendation of the Harvard committee was made, and the Faculty's prohibition withdrawn. Whatever the sentiment in England...

...special instructor for a branch of gymnastic work; the other, the lack of interest in sparring among the members of the university. Why should you fear to establish that same precedent which the CRIMSON fears so much? There is no law that forces the faculty to have a proper regard for it in their management of our affairs; and if next year a petition were to be got up to employ a regular fencing master, the faculty would certainly not be compelled to grant the petition simply because a year before they had granted one like it for another sport...
