LAST summer there was a movement
to provide the young women of New

Columbia college. The result was the
preparation of course of study by Rev.
Morgan Dix and others, but the proviso
was made that girls should receive for
their work, not degrees, but certificates
Naturally this was not acceptable, and
only four young women presented them
solver for examination at the opening OF
the term. The fault is with the trustees
who, when asked to let the girls have an
equal chance with the boys, did some
thing else. The president, DR.. Barnard
favors co-education and says that "all
the arguments against it have been sue
cessfully met and answered in the col.
