...following are the subjects for the Second Senior Forensic, which is due from the first half of the class on Tuesday, Jan. 4, 1881: 1. Does the mind sleep? 2. Does the mind forget? 3. The subject for the first forensic that you have not written on; 4. Is falsehood ever justifiable...
VERILY, I put my hand out to let a draft of fresh air into an ill-ventilated spot, and, 10, I hit upon a hornet's nest! Within the few short days that have passed since my communication appeared, no less than three letters have been written on the subject, and I understand there are some more in store for me, wretched one!

Why but two subjects - one each to the two divisions of the class - should be given out, we are at a loss to know; and why those subjects should be confined to philosophy seems still more unreasonable. There is a large number of men in each class who have no taste for philosophy, and who have, therefore, never taken an advanced elective in this course. But when subjects such as the last two, which embrace the whole scope of philosophy, are given out, these men are compelled to devote...
