The report of the Dean of the College which is published with the annual report of the President contains several tables of interesting statistics, among them two accounting for the losses and gains by classes during the last year. The second of these tables shows that the number of men who entered a higher class was larger than the number of those who were dropped and entered a lower class. This is significant as another fact proving how much the earnest and scholarly spirit predominates in the work done here. Last year the Dean pointed with pride in his report to the fact that a large proportion of the men who had been dropped had regained their regular standing, thus showing that the percentage of really lazy and indifferent mon in the college is small. The proportion of dropped men who regained regular standing last year is not stated in this year's report, but from the tables published it is a fair inference that it did not decrease. All these facts which go to show the seriousness which is characteristic of the work here are interesting and gratifying.
