...attributed in great part, if not entirely, to the introduction of the tutorial system. I was a tutor in the year 1913-1914, and I know that this system has had much to do with the breaking down of the old attitude of enmity between student and instructor.

The bold-face story on "Kindergarten Treatment" in another paper yesterday related a mild disciplinary action such as has often occurred in English 2, and is utterly without importance outside of the classroom. Thus far the freedom of the instructor to conduct his classes has been recognized by University Hall, and there is no reason for the world at large to be concerned with that matter...
