We find that the loss on conducting examinations amounts to about 26,000 this year. We are of opinion that
the fee for Matriculation and Local examinations should be
raised from 10 to 15, and that the aggregate fees for all the other examinations leading to a degree should be uniformly 100 in each Faculty. We are advised that the fees paid to internal examiners in University examinations (i.e. Matriculation and the other examinations leading to a degree) might reasonably be abolished, and that the maximum fee payable to any examiner for a Local examination should be fired at $250. These alterations would render the examina- tions self-supporting or approximately so, and we recommend their adoption. The gain to the University would be about
88,000 a year.
The sessional fees paid to Wardens in the three University hostels vary from 81,500 in Eliot Hall and $1,200 in May Hall, to $900 in Lugard Hall. The difference apparently arose from the circumstance that the Warden of Eliot Hall formerly collected the fees and kept the accounts for his and Lugard Halls, while the Warden of May Hall per-
formed a similar duty there. All this work is now done by
the Registrar. We recommend that these fees be reduced to a uniform 8000 a year in each hostel. The gain to the
University would be about $2,000 a year.
The hostel charges to students are about 10 a
week during tern; but for some reason which we have been unable to ascertain are reduced in vacation to 5 a week, an
amount which imposes actual loss on the hostels. We recom- mend that the vacation charge be increased to 10 a week.
The gain to the University would be about 84,000 a year.
The two Mission hostels inform us that they
contemplate extending their premises so as to take about
