...regard to studies there is the usual amount of grumbling and dissatisfaction, and it is undoubtedly the fact that many of them look more attractive on the elective schedule than they...
...College Spectator, for October, appears under the auspices of a new board of editors, who, we regret to say, do not commence their literary career with a proper regard for their own integrity.

Our desire to establish friendly relations...
