...overseers approve the above additions and amendments to the college regulations, and request that the same be put in operation as soon as possible. It was also voted that the overseers, still retaining their opinion as to the desirability of an early morning report, but desiring not now to insist upon measures which do not meet the approbation of the faculty, request that rules be prepared by the faculty which shall secure the daily attendance of the students in Cambridge, by requiring that each student shall be present at least at one college exercise in each week day, with fixed...
...Harvard Lacrosse Association. The Harvard management received no notification of the meeting held in New York, although the Association secretary declares that he sent one.

I insist that both sides must begin, and I still think the fate of the proposal in the conference committee augurs rather ill for the student side. The question is at present, so far as I know, not practical; that is, no proposition of change is likely to arise in the faculty. What would be the fate of any proposition arising from the students? I cannot even guess. Very likely we are well...
