That the three state institutions of
ihigher learning-,-the University, thec
r Agricultural College, and the School of{
Mines-should cooperate intimately,.
t
was the conclusion reached by the ,
presidents of the respective schools ate
a conference held, Wednesday, in De-
troit. The meeting was but prelimi-:
nary in nature but the preparation forg
permanent cooperation, and the provis- o
ion made for regular quarterly con-a
1 ferences between the heads of the;
three schools, promise a great better-
ment in regard to the present system e
of higher education in Michigan. Ir
"Ve are going to hold four meetings
every year in the future," said Pres-
ident Harry B. Hutchins when asked s
about the new movement yesterday.b
"One conference will be held at each s
of the schools interested, while the
fourth will be held in some other townp
of the state. Our next meeting will t
be at Lansing on February 8th of nextp
year." I
The idea of encouraging coopera-'
tion between the three state institu- b
tions of higher learning was first pro- t
mulgated by Governor Chase S. Os- w
born. The latter thought that, per- t
haps, some needless duplication of a
various courses existed between the t
three state schools, and that a moret
direct cooperation would tend to mini- n
mize this fault. As an example of the g
overlapping of courses, it was pointed s
out that general engineering is vE
offered at every one of the three state w
schools, while forestry courses are in
given at both M. A. C. and the Univer-zi
sity. It is realized that students can-
not well rotate between the various a
schools to complete their education, tc
thereby making it possible to teach tb
a certain subject in one institution on- a
ly., but it is hoped that the present du- f
plication can be remedied to some ex-
tent, if only as a matter of economy. tb
President J. L. Snyder, of M. A. C., aN
was the guest of President Hutchins,
.in Ann Arbor Wednesday evening, on u
the return of the two state school S
heads from the conference in Detroit. ai
President F. W. McNair, of the School tr
of Mines, spent yesterday here as the tc
guest of President Hutchins.

Director Bartelme, who is voyaging

has again been spoken in a familiar
port. Associated Press reports from
Syracuse, which appeared in the met-

ported that the Methodists renewed a

Council May Be Reached at the Union.
Persons wishing .to communicate
with the Student Council relative to
any matter of campus interest can
reach that organization through the
Union by leaving their communications
at the clubhouse. It is thought that
this process will be more prolific of
results than through the old method of
sending communications to different
council men.
