Following on Professor Lima's opinion in the CRIMSON a week ago that exchange professorships with South America are feasible, Dr. Klein adds more definitely that Harvard may well act first in this project. That Harvard is little known in South America is hardly surprising. For, conversely, few Americans have heard that Argentina has a university established twenty-three years before Harvard was in existence. Still, when our entire nation's acquaintance with Spanish America is slight, and when the University possibly ranks no better than fourth among American institutions in its southern influence, our broad considerations are backed...

The art of expressing oneself freely, which is one of the objects of this course, is necessary for the engineer, since modern engineering requires him to appear before commissions, boards, and public bodies to present his material in non-technical form, and in a limited time. But in addition to the practical advantage of the training...
Columbia's plans for a national industrial engineering research centre are fast taking shape. Two sites have already been offered for the proposed laboratories. It is proposed to erect immediately research laboratories to cost $350,000, with equipment to cost $150,000. The entire project calls for an ultimate endowment of from $2,000,000 to $5,000,000. In speaking of the plans, Dean Goetze said, "If this country would start at once building up its industries as Germany has done, it would be true preparedness.

...entertainment at the Boston Arena on January 5, for the benefit of the Harvard Surgical Unit, is being planned by a committee headed by Miss Emma D. Sanford, of Boston. The project has the sanction of President Lowell, and the Boston Arena is co-operating with Miss Sanford in the use of the rink and incidental expenses. The entertainment is to be called "The Fashion Show on Ice," and will include an exhibition of skating costumes, old and new, on living models, fancy skating by Professor Mueller and Miss Mueller, and a burlesque in which any member of the University...
