A NEW PROD TO SCHOLARSHIP

Registrar Tibbetts is to be credited with a simple yet ingenious device for rousing the latent scholastic ambition in the undergraduate mind. He has very carefully worked out and has posted on the office bulletin board the names of the men in the three upper classes, arranged in order of their scholastic standing for the past semester. Marks are not published, but Junior X now has opportunity to compare his relative standing in the class with that of his roommate Junior Y; while Junior Z, who trails at the end of the procession, has opportunity to perceive how long a list of names separates him from Junior A, who heads the list. Hesitant as is the average undergraduate to express a desire for high marks, there are not many who will take pride in being listed below their friends. This posting of the men in order of attainment should, in time, serve to stimulate more than one laggard to quicken his pace.
