WE learn that it is the desire of the Faculty to secure such an arrangement of recitations on the Tabular View as shall need little, if any, change for two or more years; in this way it is hoped that men may partially or entirely select their electives for more than one year. This is obviously a great gain to students, and we hope it may be found practicable. The Faculty further intend to arrange the examinations, next year and in subsequent years, so far as is possible, in accordance with the groups on the Tabular View. We also understand that some change is to be made in the work of Chemistry 1. There is to be more laboratory work next year than there has been this, none of the work being in Qualitative Analysis, but all in connection with the lectures; the lecture-room experiments will be repeated by the students. Some change may be made, too, in the relative number of recitations and lectures. One mistake in the Elective Pamphlet should be noticed. Fifteen hours - including one hour in Acoustics - is required for Honors in Music; only fourteen can be found. We learn from Professor Paine, concerning this, that Music 2, counterpoint, three hours a week, ought to be divided into two courses, simple and advanced counterpoint. We then have in all seventeen available hours.
