...other two, in the form of Introduction and Epilogue, treat interestingly the rather live subjects: "The Appreciation of Music" and "The Meaning of Music."

The committee is considering the question of the entire tabular view of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The chief difficulty lies in the arrangement of undergraduate courses in the College.
