Class of 1925

The trustees of the College at their annual fall meeting awarded degrees to 20 members of the class of 1925, on the recommendation of the faculty. This brings the total number of graduates in the class up to 353, and more have completed the requirements during the past semester. A list cf those awarded last fall may be found on page 139 of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE for December.

Had a snappy Christmas card with the crest of Lincoln College, Oxford, on it from Ted Geisel. They must have grand vacations. Ted has just been spending six weeks down on the Mediterranean, which is a long way from Oxford.

A letter from Mark Emerson informs us that he is very pleased with his work and life at Robert College in Constantinople. He says in part: "Robert College has a magnificent site on a hill above the Bosphorus. We have a very good equipment, with eight buildings, some of which are as good as the best in Hanover. There are 650 boys here. ....They're a wonderful crowd, and not nearly as different from American boys as you'd imagine There's plenty of amusement and social life here too." (No detailed description of the latter was attached).

We said last month, if we remember correctly, that Bob Millett was principal of the high school in Springfield, Vt. Now we hear that it is the Amherst, N. H., high school which claims him. We wish Bob would write and let us know whether he is running both of them, or just got fired from one, or if we perhaps were mistaken.

And that applies pretty generally to the rest of you birds, too. If you are ashamed of what you are doing yourself, let the Secretary know what some of the others of your acquaintance are doing anyway. There may be some guys in this class that we are proud of, and if so, we'd like to blow about it. The address to use, whether you have praise, blame, or just conversation, is at the top of this rather meager column. Spend five minutes and two cents to drop a line about yourself, no matter how long or how brief it may be.
