Much surprise has been caused within the past few days by the large number of warnings suddenly showered upon an unexpectant community.

It was supposed, from the omission of all reference to warnings in the new faculty regulations, that this feature of the disciplinary system had been laid aside, and an editorial to that effect was published in our columns. While we still think that was the original intention of the faculty, for some reason or other they were compelled to change their plan. The text of the new warning differs from that of the old, in that it contains a hint as to the time when the recipient began his downward career, and intimates very plainly that further neglect will get an admonition or something worse. In typography and press work, the new issue is fully up to the standard.
