THE University Magazine scorches Mr. W.R.Baird and his works on college fraternities in a frightful manner.
THE Harvard Crimson has been increased in size to six pages and is now the largest college daily published in America.
The Northwestern University Students have organized a court for the purpose of investigating cases of "cribbing" in examinations. The editor of "College Life," thinks that it will be a hard worked court.
The action of the faculty in promptly directing everything that may come up, into a proper channel, may not be appreciated by the students who are here now, but will be by those who follow. The faculty of K.S. U. is working for the prosperity of the University, and the students should offer them every help in their power.
THE Juniors showed the correct spirit when they made their promenade such a success. If the other classes in the University were as progressive we would have a little more class spirit.
The editor of the Journal certainly has been misinformed when he thinks that the local man on the Courier wrote his article about Pope before the Journal had been issued. The Journal came out Friday, and the article was not written until Saturday morning.
K. U. HAS reason to be proud of her graduates who have gone to eastern colleges. Charley Johnson who went from here to study medicine at Columbia, has been appointed to a position in Radswelt Hospital. New York. Charley Johnson made the best average out of a class of two hundred, who took the examination for the appointment. Dr. Ed. Blair of Kansas City, who went from K.U., received the appointment when he was graduated from Columbia.
BELOIT COLLEGE has become a co-educational college, and straightway the usual contention has begun between the trustees, and the exclusive element among the undergraduates. The Beloit "Round Table" asks what the results will be, and indirectly answers its own question thus: "What will Beloit College be in ten years? A large prosperous, wealthy institution with an increased attendance and endowment, a faculty composed of noted men in their branches, but with a grade of scholarship on a par with ordinary western co-educational schools. A one-horse college with no especial traits or character, no worthy traditions nor reputation, giddy girls taking music and art in superficial courses, and fast young men caring more for flirtation than character."
