...proctors in Matthews are either regularly absent or culpably deaf. The result is, that certain Freshmen and other students in that building nightly signalize their escape from necessary restraint by childish racket and disturbance of all kinds...
...subject or not. Again, too much attention is given to the theoretical and too little to the practical side of the subject. It takes so long to work up the great number of principles contained in the lectures, that no time is left to learn their application. As a result, the difficulty of the study is greatly increased, and it becomes impossible to retain what it has cost so much labor to master. This lack of practical drill is the great fault of the whole system. Students hardly ever acquire any facility in the use of Mathematics. Men cannot...

A subscription-paper is passed around, the club appear in their uniforms, or the newspapers chronicle the result of the game; and soon another subscription-paper is circulated to pay a deficit. Now what the College wants is a full statement of where every cent of the money subscribed has gone; and this we have a right to expect. While we have no word of complaint to utter against...
