Dartmouth College Notes.

THE term opened about three weeks ago and
most of the students are here, though few are
teaching spring schools. The drawing for num-
Der in the choice Of rooms in thecollege buildings
for next year has begun with the Juniors. For
two years the students have been allowed to sell
their draws II they choose. The first draw
brought ten dollars. The present Junior class is
so small that Reed Hail. which is usually occu-
pied exclusively by Seniors, will probably not be
more than half filled by them.
TuE Presidents wife has introduced n very
agreeable and commendabe custom in giving u
reception every week TO all members Of the Senior
class who choose to attend The first one on
Tuesday evening of last week was according to
the Dartmouth, very enjoyable occasion. Gov
ernor Prescott and several other trustees of the
Agricultural Department were present The social
element Is so much neglected here that the slight
est advance in this direction is very pleasing to
the students These receptions are to be con
tinued through the term
ON Friday evening OF last week Mrs Liver
more delivered her popular lecture on "The Com
ing Man in the College church The number
present was not large, but manifested great ap-
probation. The course will be closed by Wendell
Phillips some time in May.

THE following extract is from the Dartmouth of
last week: "The Board of Trustees of the New
Hampshire College of Agriculture held their

was adopted, occupying three full years, and COM
prisng very high and complete, but exclusively
English education, together with the special
studies bearing directly upon agriculture The
requisites for admission are substantially the same
as for the Chandler scientific school, and the
course Of study worthy of place beside the de-
partments Of Dartmouth College. After the pres
ent year. the degree conferred is to be Bachelor
of Agricultural Science" If these changes are
well carried ont, there would seem to be brighter
