THERE has been a great deal of complaint lately from those who have been prevented from taking some of the more popular elective courses, and, it seems to us, not without good reason. Without dwelling on the hardship of this exclusion in individual instances, or referring to any particular courses, we wish to protest against the principle of preventing anybody from taking a course which is put down in the elective pamphlet as open to him. If the number in some of the electives must be limited, this should at least be announced beforehand. But we cannot see what is the need of any limitation. The numbers are not so large but that the use of some larger recitation-room, or the formation of another division, would solve the problem. A little less reluctance, too, on the part of some instructors to have a few more examination-books to look over would make matters better.
