RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS

The Rhodes Scholarships of three hundred pounds per annum have again been offered to American students for a period of residence of three years, 1913-1916 at Oxford University. The requirements state that candidates must be American born, unmarried, and between the ages of nineteen and twenty-five. The scholastic requirements may be had in full by application to the "chairman of the Committee of Selection for the Rhodes Scholarship," 5 University Hall.

Due to the fact that much less Greek is studied in our universities than in those of England, the committee has allowed students to take the examination in that subject immediately before their entrance, thereby giving them ample time for preparation. All students from Massachusetts who intend to try for this scholarship must hand in their applications to the chairman of the above-mentioned committee on or before October 5, 1912.

The "Committee on Selection" from Massachusetts is composed of President Lowell, David Snedden, Commissioner of Education for Massachusetts, Endicott Peabody '04, headmaster of Groton School, Frederick C. Ferry '95, Dean of Williams College, and George P. Hitchcock, principal of the Brookline High School.
