...schools. If the proposal made to the American Association of University Professors indicates the trend to be followed, the questionable soundness of the proposition becomes of more than theoretical interest.

...cultural training is not for the rich alone. It would seem a necessary balancing factor in the life of the specialist who makes the wheels of the modern day go 'round.

The supervision of elementary work now given in the day time by graduate students also seems capable of extension with no very great difficulty.

...view of the many advantages of such a scheme it does not seem too much to ask that the hours of the University laboratories approximate those of the library. No increase in facilities, no matter how luxurious, can make up for an inexplicable restriction in their availability, and it is high time that the authorities either meet the needs of their students or show just cause for the impossibility of so doing...
