MEETING OF THE CORPORATION.

Form of Three-Years Degree Changed.--Holders May Room in Yard Next Year.

At the meeting of the President and Fellows of Harvard College yesterday, the following appointments were made: R. T. Fisher '98, instructor in forestry, for one year from September 1, 1903; W. C. Farabee, instructor in anthropology, for one year from September 1, 1903.

The Corporation reconsidered their recent vote concerning the form of degree for three-year men. They have now decided that a student who satisfied the requirements for the A.B. in three years should obtain the regular diploma at the end of the third year, but that he might choose whether, in the Quinquennial Catalogue, his name should be entered under the year of his graduation, or under the following year, his choice to be field in writing with the Recorder not less than two weeks before the degree is to be conferred. All students who expect to obtain the degree of A.B. this year after three years residence, and wish to be recorded in the Quinquennial Catalogue with their class-mates, who will take the degree next year, should notify the Recorder on or before Wednesday, June 10. It was also decided that men who this year get their A.B. after three years residence and next year complete the requirements for the degree of A.M., will be allowed to take the degree of A.M. next year.

The Corporation also decided that, for the year 1903-1904, such three-year men should not be disqualified from rooming in the Yard, but should be regarded in that matter as if they were Seniors.
