—A vocal concert will be given in the college chapel March
7th, 1903, by Francis Saunders. Mr. Saunders is no stranger
to State College audiences, and the coming concert will give
his friends an opportunity to hear him in a variety of excellent
songs. The program will include the best selections from
Stuart, De Koven, Hanley, Trotire . and others. The best
local talent will also be represented, and the program promises
to be a fine one.
—The committee in charge of the Y. M. C. A. Hand-Book
for 1903—'04 is as follows: Saums, W. R. Gorham, Hayes,
Aungst and Taylor.
—Twenty-six " flunks " out of a class of thirty-five is a pretty
high percentage.
—Among a number changes to be found 'in the catalogue for
1902-1903, those in the Mines and Mining Engineering Course
and in the Electrical Engineering Course are especially to be
noticed.
The Mining Course has been expanded, revised and bettered
so that it is really a new course. The Freshman year is
changed but slightly, but in the Sophomore year there are
alterations which tend to make the course more distinctly one
of mining. For example, geology, formerly given to Juniors,
is now required in the Sophomore year. The work required
in the Junior and Senior years has also been greatly advanced.
The elective work has been enlarged until it embraces almost
all subjects taught here.
What has been said of the Mining Course is relatively true
of the Electrical Course. This has been so re-arranged as to
allow a student to follow any of four different branches of
electrical engineering. These are : First, the general electrial
College Miscellany.
