success of George Washington University
has weakened, or any dissatisfaction on
my part with the administration of its
affairs.
During the six years in which | have
been a member of the faculty / have
earnestly supported the general policy of
elevating the standards of admission and
graduation. and OF requiring of all gradu-
ates work of the same kind and thorough
ness is expected in the great univer-
sites of the country. / feel genuine re-
greet in abandoning after the present ses-
sion my efforts to aid President Needham
in his struggle to make of George Wash
ington University such an institution as
will be worthy OF the support of the peo-
pie OF Washington and the respect of the
country at large.
The secretary of the university reports
that there has been a considerable in
crease in the registration over last year.
which is an increase of Ill over the same
