Removal of Union College.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

There has been under discussion for some time at Union College a plan to remove the college from Schenectady to Albany, but nothing definite has as yet been done. It is felt that some conclusion must be reached at once, for the uncertainty is hurting the college. Alumni refuse to give money until they know where it is to be placed.

The authorities refuse either to favor or to antagonize the movement, but are waiting to see what Albany offers, and will then act for the best interests of the college. It is believed, however, that there would be no objection made by the authorities to removal if satisfactory offers were made. Sentiment, a large number of the alumni, the local Trustees, and other influences are arrayed against removal, and no one can guess the outcome. A meeting of the board of trustees will be held today and the matter will probably be discussed.
