...attendance at recitations. We do not see how this can be more rigidly enforced than it is at present, unless the penalty of dismissal from college be attached to every one who has the terrible audacity to "cut" recitations at all.

The second editorial, on the subject of forensics and themes, deserves a careful reading. The same idea must have occurred to every senior and junior taking elective courses in which theses are required. To be sure, the man who has three...
