Floral Dept., 1042 O St. PROFESSORS WILL MEET IN NEW YORK First Meeting of University Profes sors' Association Takes Place on January First On Friday, January 1, 1915. at the Chemists' Club in New York City, the first general meeting of the Univer sity Professors' Association will bo held. This organization has been in the process of making since a year ago. At that time was felt the need for some central organization, so the most noted profssors in America con stitute a committee on membership. These men were given the power of choosing the professors whom they considered the most promim nt in structors in the United States. Doctor Bessey, as the most noted botanist, named the men who were most promi nent in botany in all the universities. Dr. Roscoe Pound, professor of law at Harvard, is another Nebraska man honored with a place on the commit tee to appoint. About thirty members of Nebraska's faculty are on the list of one thousand charter members and are invited to attend the oanquet on January 1st. The purposes and aims of this asso ciation are many, the principal one being to offer to the professors the opportunity for more effective co operation as custodians of higher edu cation and research. At the meetings such problems as tenure of office of university professors, the awarding of grades, honors and promotions to stu dents, the function of the faculty in university government, and all the problems which university professors as a group are called upon to face will be discussed. It is probable that a quarterly periodical will be. pub lished by the association. In this magazine will be discussed the afore mentioned problems and a general plan of collective action concerning them will be provided. This organization fills a long felt need and will no doubt prove to be a great success. Nebraska should feel proud of her professors who have been asked to join. At present this list cannot be given, but will be pub lished later in the year, after organi zation has been perfected.

SHEAN OPTICIAN 1123 O St. Yellow Front Your Patronage Solicited THE DUTCH MILL , A GOOD PLACE TO EAT.. special music Princeton, December 4. For the purpose of bringing the alumni into closer touch with the intellectual side of the life of the University, a new plan has recently been adopted by the Graduate Council, with the approval of the board of trustees, providing for the establishment of standing com mittees on conference with the faculty According to the new provision: "The executive committee of the Graduate Council may appoint, sub ject to the approval of the board of trustees, such committees on confer ence. It shall be the purpose of these committees in sympathetic co-operation with the various schools and de partments of the University, to confer with the teaching staff, to ascertain the needs of the various departments, and report on them to the Council. These reports may be transmitted to the board of trustees in such way as the Council may see fit. These com mittees are to consist of one or mere members of the Council who shall have associated with them men espe cially interested in the department concerned. These members shall not necessarily be either Princeton men nor college graduates." It is expected that the new commit tees will .be established gradually, but that ultimately there will be a commit tee for each department of the Uni versity. Professor F. F. Abott, in com menting on the new plan in the Prince ton Alumni Weekly, makes the follow ing observations: "One interesting point in connection with the plan is the fact that it is the joint work of the trustees, the Alumni, and the Faculty, and in that respect sets a valuable precedent for future action. One other point is worth men tioning in conclusion. The adoption of this plan brings the Alumni into a more vital relation with university life, and in particular with the intel lectual side of that life, without the sacrifice by the Faculty of any part, of its control of the educational policy of the University. It is the second step in a general movement, of which the first was the election of alumnt members at Princeton and elsewhere to the board of trustees."
