CAMPUS NOTES
June 1917

The undergraduate editor is at present a candidate for an officer's commission at Madison Barracks and cannot tell the story of the undergraduate month and even if he were here to do so there would be little to record but military drill from one day to the next. However the frame-work of organization is being preserved for those happier normal times that must come again. All the strictly military news, having to do with undergraduates or others, is recorded under the department of College News. The rest has mainly to do with elections.
