At a meeting of the trustees of Columbia College Professor William M. Sloane, of Princeton, was appointed to the Seth Low chair of history, and also to the head of the department of history. The Seth Low chair of history was founded in recognition of President Low's gift to the new Library building. Professor Sloane graduated from Columbia in 1868, and in 1887 received the honorary degree of LL.D., from Columbia. At present Professor Sloane is in Europe, and it is not known whether he will accept the appointment or not.
A new system of cuts and marks has been inaugurated with the freshman class at Yale, and if found successful, may be applied to future classes.
