General Regulations. TUDENTS are expected to attend punctually all oflicially appointed exercises, especially breakfast, Gymnasium classes and evening lecturesf The President and Dean exercise a general supervision over everything-coming under their observation. All other matters are obliged to get along by themselves. Societies and associations of admiration and affection among the students may be formed only with the approval of the President and faculty. The constitution setting forth the object and by- laws, giving the hours, also the character of the meetings or en- tertainments Qcandy, flowers, dinners etc.,j regular or occasional, must meet the approval of the Dean. Any such society or asso- ciation may be disbanded entirely when members express a de- sire for new ones or when the general interests of the college seem to require it. Hcademic Work. Those students who offer at entrance the maximum require- ments in all subjects are caused to labor unceasingly and without praise or sympathy. Conditioned students are carefully cared for, are fed appetiz- ing dainties, are petted and complimented both in and out of the class room. Those students who at entrance are able to converse fluently in Greek with the President and his son are not required to elect any modern language during their college course. Any student passing successfully her 'first examination in Math. I. is liable to insult. A comfortable student life is not to be attained unto in that manner. Any student in Math. I. who fails to pass the nth examination in both Geometry and Algebra will not be allowed to take Trigonometry, the class tends to increase so rapidly that some such restriction must be enforced. When the mental state of a student seems to require a second examina- tion the following times are suggested. In the week immediate- ly following the regular examinations when the mind is particu- larly clear and active, in the September examination period when -JG that students will observe it. This rule looks well, that is its excuse for beingg it is not even hoped 132
