All Seniors are requested to appear in dress-suits, black hats, white cravats, and white gloves, and also to appear in the same dress on Commencement, Wednesday, June 28.
Seniors are most earnestly requested to avoid any absurdity of dress at the exercises around the Tree, for upon the good order and gentlemanly conduct of the Seniors this year depends the future continuance of the "Dancing round the Tree." They are also asked to use discretion in the distribution of the tickets to the Yard.
No carriages or teams will be allowed in the Yard after 12 M., and none will be allowed to stand in the Yard at any time.
All students are requested to be careful that all windows and doors on the back side of the dormitories are closed and fastened during the evening.
In order to carry out their plans, and render the roping in of the Yard effectual, the Committee ask the class to conform strictly to the above arrangements.
