...correspondent to one of our papers. It is gratifying to know that an investigation is being made into the method of instruction and the requirements made upon a student, but much more good would be done were the investigating committee to inquire into the manner of studying and the regularity with which such studies are pursued. From all sides one hears complaints from the students as to the large amount of work required by instructors: lessen the work as much as possible, and still the student complains that it is too much, and cases occur where the health breaks down...

It seems to us that a great lack of forethought was shown by the authorities when they expended so much in placing stone and brick walks all over the yard, and left these two most important thoroughfares without even the protection of that cheap, and much abused...
