...aircraft for commercial purposes. The subjects include aerodynamics, principles of construction, motors, navigation, photography, radio, and an economic study of costs. The duration of the complete course is nine months, for which a fee of $250 is charged. Students who are able to show that they are proficient in certain subjects will not be required to remain with the school the entire nine months, in which case arrangements can be made in regard to subjects and terms. Facilities are also being offered for students who desire to participate in flights. These flights will be conducted under the supervision of skilled...

Some of these editorial stands aroused antagonism which has not yet died out. Before...
...long time it has, however, been increasingly difficult and indeed often impossible for men who wished to pursue liberal studies to prepare themselves to meet Princeton's entrance requirements in Greek. To such students a course in beginning Greek will be offered, though it is not required. Certain subjects are to be demanded of all students in the first two years, though we plan to allow freshmen to select one or two of the newer university studies like biology and modern history, to which they have previously not had access in the early years of their college course...
