Action of Overseers.

At an adjourned meeting of the Board of Overseers held yesterday morning, the following resolutions were passed:

Resolved, That in the judgment of the Board of Overseers the degree of Bachelor of Arts should not be given by this University to women, inasmuch as they are not permitted to qualify themselves for it in Harvard College, and at present this form of qualification is implied by the said degree.

Resolved, provided that the President and Fellows concur herein, that the Faculty of Arts and Sciences be authorized in their discretion to admit any student of Radcliffe College to any course of instruction designed primarily for graduates, upon such terms and subject to such limitations and conditions as may be agreed upon between said Faculty and the corresponding governing body of the said College, such students not to be deemed students of Harvard University, and the privileges hereby conferred upon them to be at all times revocable, as well by the said Faculty of Arts and Sciences as by the governing boards of the University.

The following action was also taken:

That the various views and suggestions which have been expressed in the majority and minority reports of the special committee on the report of the President of the University relating to the expenditures and income of the College be referred to the President and Fellows, with the request that they shall take them into consideration for such action in the future as the interests of the College shall require.
