Philosophical Society.

At a meeting of the Graduate Philosophical Society held last evening in the Psychological Laboratory, the following officers were chosen for the ensuing year: President, Dr. G. V. Dearborn, 2G.: secretary, Mr. A. O. Lovejoy, 2G.; executive committee, the president, secretary and Mr. J. E. Lough. It was decided by a vote of the meeting that the presentation of elaborate papers at the meetings be hereafter discontinued; instead, the meetings will consist of informal, general discussion on a series of connected topics, a member being appointed to open and guide the discussion at each meeting. Mr. Lough reported upon the proposed Cambridge conferences; and Professor Royce addressed the society upon the question of allowing candidates for the Doctorate to present more various groups of courses.

The society meets once a month and is open to members of any post-graduate department of the University.
