...many hours of electives in one particular branch that they must choose between giving up the study of many other things and renouncing their ambition. The only remedy for this, that we see, is to accept proficiency in final examinations as an equivalent for so many hours in the tabular view. We cannot see why such a substitution would not be perfectly fair. If one man has sufficient ability to learn as much Greek in one elective as another man does in two, why should he not be allowed the advantage which his natural capacity gives him? The test...
...Tabular View tells us that from April 1st all the morning exercises will be held an hour earlier than at present; that prayers will come at a quarter before seven, and that recitations will begin at eight. Why this change should be made it is hard to see. The present arrangement is very satisfactory to all concerned, and it is certain that the new one will be decidedly unsatisfactory to many students, and presumably to such professors as are obliged thereby to be at the post of duty as the clock strikes eight...
...number of pedestrians that patrol the brick sidewalks of North Avenue on a fine afternoon bear witness to its popularity. But as soon as the snow clears off, and overshoes can be discarded, the time will have come for long walks. That happy afternoon when the hieroglyphics on your tabular view are not underscored will be devoted to exploring the surrounding country. When the interest of sight-seeing is added to the exhilarating effects of bodily exercise, we have every quality that can make an-out-door sport attractive; and long walks take a deservedly prominent place in the catalogue...
AFTER the hours of the Tabular View change and dinner comes at one instead of two, it is suggested that recitations end at five instead of six. Themes would then come at two, and the first recitation would be at three. We should then have the same interval after dinner as we do at present, and few, we are convinced, think that the time allowed is too short. Themes and Forensics do not fall to the lot of individuals more than once a week, on the average, and the time until three would be amply sufficient for the customary smoke...
...begin on Tuesday evening, the 19th inst. Those wishing to enter are requested to send their names to Mr. F. L. Green, Secretary, M. 55, enclosing the admission fee of fifty cents, and stating at what hours during the ensuing fortnight they will be at liberty to play. A "tabular view" of the games to be played will be posted in the rooms on Tuesday morning, and the list of entries will be closed at 6 P. M., Monday. All games must be played in the rooms of the Chess Club...
