...attention of the students of the university, and all others interested in Oriental history and language, is called to the new Semitic circular, which has just been issued under the direction of Professors Toy and Lyon.

We have always done our best to make the CRIMSON a medium of communication which should represent the faculty as well as undergraduates, but this effort on our part has not met with great success, chiefly, we believe, because the instructors have not understood...
