No. 39.
Hon. A. M. Thorson,
Acting Colonial Secretary,
Queen's College,
Sir,
23rd April, 1902.
I have read with great attention and considerable interest the able Report of the Education Committee recently published in the Gazette (11th instant). It bears evidence of wise judicial deliberation, but as some of their recommendations for Queen's College are opposed to my views, it appears incumbent on me as Head Master to state my objections, without unnecessary delay, in consideration of the lapse of time required for correspondence with the Mother country; and here I beg leave to remark that the attached Minutes are written in no spirit of carping criticism, but as embodying another phase of certain questions, which may otherwise escape the attention of the Government.
I have therefore the honour to submit for the consideration of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government, the following Minutes on certain points, viz.:
A. Admission.
1. Nationality.
2. Entrance Examination.
B. Chinese Studies.
C. Course of English Studies.
D. Object and Sphere of usefulness of N.
E. Internal Organisation.
F. Finance.
1. Revenue.
2. Expenditure with Table.
