YALE PLANS NEW
 DEGREE FOR HER
 STUDENTS IN WAR

New Haven. Nov. 14-A suggestion that the degree of bachelor of mih- tary science be conferred on men who have left college to enter war service, rather than the regular college degree, Is made in letter from President E.. N. Hopkins of Dartmouth college to the Yale News and made public here today. President Hopkins says: ''I want to say most definitely that I think nothing Is too good for these men who have left college and gone into service. I am not sure. how ever, that the best thing for them or for the college is to give the regular degree. I am inclined to think that the, fairest thing, and probably the most satisfactory thing, would be to give special degree--such as per haps, bachelor of military science. or something of this sort
 'I need not say that T. should not consider this proposed degree inferior in any way to the regular one. It would simply, be different and fully significant of the actual record of the man."
