150 THE ALUMNI JOURNAL 



COLLEGE NOTES. 



November 13^ 1909. 



There is now under consideration by the College authorities, a 

 plan to extend the University course over a term of three years 

 instead of two years as at present. This is a question of greatest 

 importance, and will, of course, need much discussion, and deep 

 consideration before final action is taken. 



At the meeting of the Board of Trustees, held on the 9th of 

 November, Mr. John H. Blumberg was declared a Graduate in 

 Pharmacv. 



This year there came up for examination for the Senior Scholar- 

 ship, three men of last year's Junior Class. The examination was 

 very exacting, and it was necessary before this scholarship could be 

 granted to any of the competitors, that they receive at least 75 per 

 cent, in every subject in which they were examined. The Exam- 

 ination Committee and the Faculty have both recommended that 

 this scholarship be awarded to Mr. Leo Roon. 



Since the last issue of the Alumni Journal, we might say that the 

 Food & Drug Certificates have been ready for distribution to those 

 students who completed courses in 1908 and 1909. The certificate 

 is on sheepskin, and is a beautiful piece of engrossing work. Those 

 men by whom these were received may well be proud of them. 



Quite a few of the students at this College are taking an active 

 part in the athletics of the University, and it is a common sight to 

 see boys from the College of Pharmacy, in running suits on South 

 Field. 



The students have also started a College Orchestra, and practices 

 are held in the College Library after the last period. We hope 

 this movement will be a great success and that at future College 

 events we will be charmed by our own music. 



We have with us this year as a special student, Miss Ruth Rusby, 

 a daughter of our Dean. 



Blank forms of College Membership Certificates are now at hand. 

 Upon payment of $2.00, each college member is entitled to receive 

 such certificate, signed by the president and the secretary. Appli- 

 cation for certificate should be made to Mr. W. B. Simpson, Clerk 

 of the College.
