HARVARD'S NEW TESTS.
Meet Feeling That Colleges Dictate
Too Much to High Schools.

iiarVards new scheme o require
monts for admission is not only pro-
aressivc. bat also wise in it's conees-
Siuns I" the growing influence. power.
and efficiency Of the public high
schools. which now prepare SO many
of the Harvard students for their col
legc courses. TIL" changes are offered
as an alternative to the old system,
but they are designed ultimately IA
supeIsede entirely what is now in
vogue. Briefly. they recognize that
the certificates of public high schools
in good standing must be accepted as
in part conclusive evidence concerning
their graduates fitness to enter Har-
ward College. they reduce very much
the amount of actual written examina
tions for the candidates. and they also
accept. in some measure. President
Nicholas Murray Cutters dictum that
"the Introduction OF the human Gle
ment into the administration Of college
admission requirements and into col
legc admission examinations is the
way out of our difficulties That is to
say. a youth is to be considered some
what as a human being rather than as
n mere machine for answering dues-
tons concerning Latin syntax, alge-
hrnic equations, and tho Magma Char
ia.
IN recent years there has been a
growing feeling among public school
men that the colleges dictated too
much, by means Of their entrance re-
ouirements. tho course OF study in the
high schools supported by the taXpay-
ers and patronized by youth of whom
very large proportion do not go to
college mt all.
The decision of the Harvard authori-
ties to get into closer touch with the
high schools IS emphasized by very
sagacious eXpedien. they have adopted
in connection With the new require
mrnts for admission. To effect haf-
monv with high schools, it is said,
there will be a committee of three
school teachers for each subject. who
viii present in writing each year eritf-
cisIn Of the examinations and sugGes-
lions. This policy is so conciiatory
that a modus vivandi should not be
hard to work out satisfactory to all
concerned While SO many high
schools in various states are still in
ferior in standards, the colleges must
exercise sharp supervision over en-
trance requirements, in order to pre-
serve their own prestige, and TINS
much Harvard will, OF course, continue
to do--Springfeld Republican.
