Increase in Room Rent.

Notices have been sent to occupants of rooms in Hollis and Stoughton informing them that "by vote of the Corporation, February 26, 1894, the scale of prices of rooms in Hollis and Stoughton is to be increased from the beginning of the academic year, 1894-95; except that present tenants in these halls who reengaged their rooms for 1894-95, shall not be required to pay the increase in price during that year." The new rates are from fifty to seventy-five per cent. higher than the old. The lowest priced rooms in these dormitories, which formerly were $44 are now $70, and the highest priced rooms are raised from $75 to $125.
