One advantage which the new university has over those of long standing is the privilege of profiting by their experience. Thus the University of California, in its students' union building soon to be erected, is to combine features of the unions at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, and Pennsylvania. At the same time the new institution will be unlike those that have gone before it, in being paid for by students themselves, instead of by benefactors. This difference will no doubt be regarded as a good example. So, in turn, the California structure may become a model for universities not yet founded. Christian Science Monitor.
