Although the Annex is not an integral part of the University, it nevertheless deserves recognition by the college papers from the very fact that it is called the Annex to Harvard College. There is a difficulty, however, in obtaining more information about it than that given in the scant notices which appear from time to time. The young ladies, we are told, are very reticent and disinclined to give publicity to the occurrences at the Annex. Is not this a wrong position for them to take? Must they not as students connected with the University, expect to share its burden, as well as its benefits? One of these burdens may be said to be the necessity of gratifying the natural curiosity of students to know something of their neighbors. Seriously speaking, there must be a great deal occurring at the Annex which is of interest to the students of the University, and, therefore, worthy of publication. However, the young ladies of the Annex may not be aware that they have a right to send to this paper communications, or news concerning this University, or any of its members. Nevertheless, such is not only their privilege, but also, as students connected with the University, their duty. We have said that the college papers ought to take more notice of the Annex. We go a step farther and maintain that the young ladies of that institution ought to find considerable in the college papers to interest them. Aside from the athletic news in the papers, the greater part of the writing in the papers is on subjects relating to the University. We do not write in the mercenary hope of increasing our subscription list [although we should welcome any addition to it], but with a desire to make the CRIMSON actually representative organ of Harvard University, and all its connections.
