Quite a number of students are anxiously awaiting the decision, which, if it is in the negative, will be a sore disappointment to them. We wish to correct an error that occurred in the last issue of The Hesperian. Professor Ingersoll comes to us from the chancellorship of the agricul tural college at Fort Collins, Col., instead of coming from the University of Colorado.
