It is said that Princeton trustees are hereafter to be chosen by the alumni. In connection with this rumor the Tiger indignantly exclaims : "When this system is inaugurated, what pledge or security will we have that morning chapel will be left undisturbed? How can we hope to retain the grading system, with all its delightful uncertainties, dazzling possibilities and brilliant successes in analysis and classification? What assurance will we have that our moral character will be trained up in the way it should go under such a loose and irresponsible authority? There is even the possibility that men who are twenty-one years old, and presumably American citizens, will be at liberty to leave town without permission, not only when it is necessary, but whenever they choose to do so."
