...noisiest man in the class enters, slams the door, seizes me by the shoulder, and wants me to go to walk.

...superiority of the honor examinations is easily seen. Aiming at a thorough knowledge of the whole subject, their extent renders useless any special preparation previous to examination. In the Classics, the main tests are reading at sight and composition. In Philosophy, the requirements are about five times as great as those of the I. C. L. In Mathematics, work equivalent to the Association's requirements is demanded for passing the examination for Second Year honors.
