Much discontent has been expressed against the management of the '87 freshman crew. It has been justly said by a prominent member of the class, that all criticism is unfair, and all censure impossible until the report of the expenses, etc., are put before the class.

...periodicals are put under the head periodical, except society reports which are entered under special topics. Catalogues of other libraries, especially of the Boston Athenaeum, Boston Public, and Brooklyn Libraries, are of great use in enabling one to find the book wanted.

Suppose, for example, that when the collection-box is passed around, I have only a ten-dollar bill, which I put in sorrowfully rather than appear to give nothing. The gift is not free. But if by some mistake, I think that what I am giving is only one dollar, the gift of the ten is still not free, even if I do not grudge it on discovering my error...
