...question why this is so, we can only answer that so far as we are aware this custom has always existed at Harvard, and it does not seem probable that it will change.

The annual assessment of the union for the year is twenty-five cents. Debates on public questions are the chief business of the union. All freshmen are urged to join and, if desiring, to take an active part in the debates...
