Balloting at the Cambridge store will be conducted from 10 a. m. until 4 p. m. and in addition to the clerks there will be present at all times one member of the board of directors. Voting will be by the Australian ballot with separate booths for each voter in which to prepare his ballot. The form of vote will be "yes" or "no" on the plan submitted by the committee and approved by the Society at the meeting held November 7. The first set of stockholders will also be voted upon at the same time...

When only a three-year course was required for a degree, the fee for a fourth year was made smaller as an inducement to the students to enter upon another year. The requirements for a degree now demand four years of study. This change will affect all students who enter the School after the academic year 1902-03, but they will be exempt from the customary graduation...
...which keep all of the three boons which we are so earnestly striving to harmonize, let us by all means hear of them publicly, and at once. But if no substitute proposition of this sort is given a place on the incorporation ballets of November 21, the duty to vote against the Committee's plan of incorporation will be clear, honorable, and urgent for every man who believes that the legally effective control of our Society ought to remain vested in the student body of members at large.
