Against Caps and Gowns.

In response to the request for opinions from the class, communications received by the Class Day Committee have been opposed to the wearing of caps and gowns before Class Day. So far as the committee can ascertain, this seems to be the feeling throughout the class. Although in theory the idea commends itself to almost everyone, in practice it has never proved a success. Therefore the committee feels justified in deciding that the class shall wear caps and gowns only on Baccalaureate Sunday, Class Day and Commencement. There is, however, a decided feeling among a majority of the class that there should be some means of designating Seniors. Of the several suggestions which have been made, the wearing of a distinctive lapelbutton seems the most appropriate. The Class Day Committee takes this means of bringing the subject before the class for discussion. Class Day Committee.
