THE RESOLUTIONS AT AMHERST.
The Amherst faculty has not yet decided what action to take in regard to the resolutions recently drawn up by the Inter-collegiate Conference on Athletics in New York.

The subject has created quite an excitement among the students, and their opinions seem to be evenly divided as to whether Amherst should adopt the resolutions or not.
Junior Theme V. will be due on Thursday, February 28. Subject: An exposition of some subject connected with the chief study of each student.
