The senior class at Columbia University has voted to choose the commencement officers by a competitive examination, rather than by vote. This examination, which will be similar to those of the civil service, will consist of the submission of proposed orations, speeches, poems, histories, and so forth, to the president of the class and to two Faculty members. The three best manuscripts for each office will then be laid before the class, which will then vote on the candidates who have qualified.
