The college has good cause to congratulate itself on the appointment of Professor Briggs as Dean. Probably none of the younger professors is so well known and liked. Mr. Brigg's position during the last few years as head alternately of several of the large English courses has brought him into contact with a larger number of men than it falls to the lot of most instructors to know. All those men unite in admiring him for just those qualities of sympathy and fair-mindedness which are so necessary in an efficient Dean. No other appointment would have been so acceptable to the students, whose wishes in a matter of this kind are not to be overlooked, and Mr. Briggs may look forward to the cordial co-operation of the whole college when he begins his duties next year.
