There are several considerations which are invariably overlooked by those who advocate the establishment of a course in phonography as part of the regular college work, and which are doubtless of great weight with the college authorities. In the first place the theory of the subject is very easily understood, and could be learned without difficulty by simply reading the introductions to any of the standard manuals upon the subject. The only way in which a course could be made useful would be to take up the study as an art, and have a perfect drill upon the rudiments...
...interest the incoming of the present freshman class. It was thought by many that the way in which the college troubles of last year were magnified and exaggerated by certain reckless newspaper correspondents, would be the means of decreasing the number of applicants for admission this fall. This would doubtless have been the case had it not been for the foresight of the trustees and faculty. A new course of study was prepared for candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, made up of prescribed electives and optional studies, and substituted for the old prescribed course.

The faculty, however, would not be likely to consent to such an arrangement, and even if they would it would not be expedient to break in upon the recitations of so many men. Immediate action should be taken upon the matter in order to insure perfect...
...Williams Athenaeum of May 27 asks: "Why could not a joint board be made up of representatives from the leading New England colleges, Harvard, Yale, Amherst, Williams, Dartmouth, Brown and Bowdoin?" And in the issue of June 10 says, in reply to the query of the HARVARD HERALD, "Doubtless our own ideal would be somewhat of an Atlantic Monthly for students." In respect to the character and objects of such a publication, I think that it should be published monthly and should aim at representing what is best and most characteristic in college life. It should resemble in some degree...
