An adjourned meeting of the overseers was held on Wednesday, and the principal business discussed was the printing of the quinquennial catalogue, The next number will be published this year, and the action taken by the board will materially alter the appearance of this graduates' catalogue in the future. The committee which had been appointed to consider the expediency of printing the names of the graduates in English instead of Latin, reported favorably for the change, and the following motion proposed by Mr. Sargent was carried, and the motion accepted : "That the board of overseers advise and recommend that the Quinquennial Catalogue should be printed in English."
