...GOOD deal of disappointment was expressed because the Catalogue this year contained no examination-papers. In the choice of electives these papers were a valuable guide, since they showed the nature of an elective much more clearly than any title or list of books studied could do.

...give a tolerably detailed account of the way in which they have spent their college life, the societies they have been members of, their connection with athletics, the rooms they have occupied, and, if space is left, we would suggest that every one should append to his life a list of the electives he has taken while in college...
