This morning we submit to the college a plan for future representation on committees. As the work of the preliminary conference to morrow is to determine on such representation, any good suggestions cannot be amiss : therefore a plan has been prepared by the CRIMSON with much care, and is herewith given to the faculty and delegates for their consideration...

We think by its adoption that not only could the sole objectionable feature in college contact with professionals be removed, but also more cordial relations would be promoted among the colleges. For the colleges would be relying upon each other's honor...
