This condition of the floor, I understand, is to remain until the next Assembly, February S, - nearly a month. Whether it is right that the use of a college building for private purposes should be granted to a number of outsiders, or to a portion of the faculty, when the students are not inconvenienced, may be an open question. But, if the gymnasium was built for the use of the students, it surely is not right or just that, for the benefit of outsiders, they should be deprived of a portion of the advantages of the gymnasium, or be made...

...students" and not to the university at large. This is true, but it must be remembered that the success of this attempt would give more men the enjoyment of sparring. Practice of this kind is, as all other gymnasium exercise, merely a recreation for the mind, but I cannot understand why it should not on that account be well cultivated.

...light offence. We refer to the habit of "cribbing." That a man should have so little sense of honor as to deliberately copy sentence after sentence from a book, or degrade another man by hiring him to write his theme, indicates a code of morals which is difficult to understand. At last a man has been detected in this practice, and it is said, has been expelled from the University.
