CLASSICS ILD GROUND AT CAMBIRIDGE UIJIESITY LATIN-GREEK COMBINATION NOT NEEDED FOR ALL DEGREES Cambridge, England, Jan. 23.-Re- sponding to te stimulus imparted by the war, Cambridge university is con- templating changes which may affect the whole scheme of modern training in English-speaking universities and provide a broader basis for liberal education. The first of these is designed to bring the examination which candi- dates must pass either before or after entering Cambridge more into line with the requirements- of the modern world. To accomplish this it has been proposed to abolish the compulsion of candidates to study two classical languages. This applies only to the "ordinary" courses, as distinguished from the "honor".courses which latter are for the abler students. Now Demand Both Classics While there is no entrance examin- ation at Cambridge, all candidates are required to pass the so-called "pre- vious examinations" in which, at pres- ent, Greek and Latin are both com- pulsory. It now has been proposed that, in- stead of compelling the candidates to take two classical languages, two for- eign languages should be required in the "previous examinations" of which Latin shall be one; and that the candi- date shall have the option of offering ae his second foreign language either Greek, or French, or German. It is felt that the existence of classical en- trance scholarships will effectually promote the study of Greek at the uni- versity by many of the abler men. Lessens Requftements For Degrees It is not proposed to make the "pre- vious examinations" easier but to op- en the avenue to a degree to those who have been educated at univlersities where two classical languages are not compulsory. When once the "previous examina- tion" is passed the "ordinary" student 'usually proceeds to take one or more special examinations. It is suggested to increase the number of these and generally to widen the curriculum. New subjects may be introduced and re-grouping will probably follow. Closer Associations A committee has recently been ap- pointed "to consider the means of pro- moting collaboration with the univer- sities of the Empire and the foreigpn universities." This committee with its wide influence will doubtless deal with such questions as the interchange of professors, and what facilities can be afforded to young graduates from non-British universities for proceed- ing to post graduate courses and de- grees. Welcome To Soldier Students Cambridge has no Rhodes Scholars, but she has numerous students from the United States, and a welcome is now being extended to the soldier-stu- dents already in Europe wh6' cannot spend their short leaves in America. There are already over 3,00 American university men, students and gradu- ates, engaged in active war work in France, and it is expected that in a short timethere may bem more than 10,000. Universty authorities hope that next year groups of these stu- dents will visit Cambridge and spend a few days in its ancient colleges. It is already known that all the coleges are willing most cordially to co-oper- ate in this movement and as far as 'is possible every hospitality will be ex- tended to the guests from across -the seas.'

FRESHMEN ELECT COURSE FOR SENIORS BY MISTAKE Several freshmen have elected Geol- ogy 1E for the second semester, who should have elected Zoology 1. This Arror is due to' a mistake in the an- nouncement of the literary college with regard to the freshmen courses in Forestry. Geology 1 is there given as a required course for the 'freshman year. Since Geology 1 is not offered in the second semester, some freshmen have interpreted the announcement to mean Geology 1E, which is a Forestry course, but open only to upperclass- men. The bulletin of the Forestry department schedules the course cor- rectly, and in that'bulletin Zoology- 1 is designated for the second semester of the freshman year. Students who have elected Geology 1E by mistake should take the first opportunity to rectify the mistake, and should go to the classes in Zoology 1 at the begin- ning of the semester. l1 (.
