education which will fit them more for administrative and business ap pointments, by aiming at a broad er treatment of general knowledge. There can be little doubt that the new scheme, while raising the standard of the ordinary degree, will necessitate more strenuous study on the part of the student.

Work during the first two years! will be devoted to a general ex- amination in two parts, in which the subjects will include modern and economic history, modern" Inn- guages, general science, geography and sociology. After this period the candidates will proceed to take one special subject which may be of their own choice.

Consideration was also given to the financial aspect of the new scheme, and the syndicate were anxious that the cost to the student should not be excessive. At the same time, they would regret the introduction of such econumles in teaching, as regards both quantity and quality, as would impair the value of the courses.

They considered however, that it would be manifestly unfair if the teaching for the ordinary degree were to be subsidised at the expose of other spheres of University nc. tivity..
