...Dean Benedict and published in this morning's CRIMSON presents a truly startling array of figures. The fact that the rooms available for the use of the class meetings, apart from those set aside for special uses in the various laboratories and museums, are used up to nearly 100 percent capacity during the morning hours, reveals the fact that additions to the available space must be made in some way in the near future...

There is perhaps little more for soft epigrams like "Agenius? Someone who's always searching for something", which are five percent humor and ninety-five percent Jane Cowl.
