...same item of expense as the first fee, and hence our correspondent's error. The last fee is for nothing but damages to apparatus and for any chemicals, besides the regular reagents used by the student. As a matter of fact, no charge at all was made for extra chemicals this year, the charges being for breakage alone. The fee of $25 for breakage in two courses, such as chemistry 3 and 4, is considered an average one. It seems a misfortune that there is no endowment from which the expense of running a laboratory could be paid, as such...
EDITORS DAILY GRIMSON.-With reference to the subject of extra charges in the chemistry department, the writer of the first communication would like to state the, besides the fees of $5.00 each, when he tick chemistry 3 and 4, he was charged $25.00 or more for the chemicals used in those courses. Knowing something about the price of chemicals, he is confident that this $25.00 fully covered the expense of those he used, his breakage having been very slight...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON-We regret to notice in the new Elective Pamphlet for 1884-85 that the faculty have not yet seen fit to do away with the paying of extra fees where Chemistry and Natural History courses are elected. The majority of men while in college elect twelve full courses, and the instruction in these costs them $450. A student intending to make Chemistry a profession would naturally elect besides six miscellaneous courses, courses 1 to 6 in Chemistry. Chemistry 1 and 2 have extra fees of $10 each, the other four courses, of $15 each. Thus...
...more dearly than the most advanced courses in History or Mathematics. The students have suffered this imposition for two years already, and it may last several more unless they protest. If the college is in need of funds, it is certainly not fair to raise them by imposing extra fees on men who can ill afford to pay them. The writer of this article will not profit by any change in this matter, but he would like to see redressed, an abuse that has lasted long enough...
...order that we may correct a false impression which some men seem to hold, we publish in another column this morning a communication from a student on the subject of extra charges in the chemistry department. We would say in reply to it, that the only extra charges made by the college are those to cover the value of the chemicals, which the students use, besides some for slight expenses connected with running the laboratory. Of course, what a student breaks he is expected to pay for. There is no extra expense whatever beyond this amount, and the college could...
