...conflict upon which the authorities must look with disfavor, especially as such an occurrence might be cited as a precedent in future requests. On the other hand, if the New Harvard Union officials secured permission to hold the address in Sanders Theatre, and if it was not made explicit to them that the theatre could not be used before a certain hour, they were quite justified in making final arrangements with Mr. Irving. The cause of the trouble is an unfortunate misunderstanding...
...Bolles has done is past mistrust. Taking the facts of the University as they are, he has merely recorded them in such a way that they will be understood by everyone. His statement of the position of a poor man at Harvard, for example, is at once most explicit and just. The University needs no more justification before the public than this.

...hoped that this year's announcement of electives will be more explicit than former issues in the statement of the nature and requirements of some of the courses, especially those requiring laboratory practice. Now that the final choice of electives must be made before the term begins, it is very necessary for a man to know how long and at what hours he is to be in the laboratory. Where courses change so from year to year as they have in Physics and some Natural History subjects, it is useless to take the statement of those who have formerly taken...
