University to Co-operate With Newton Theological Institution

The President and Fellows and the Board of Overseers have consented to a plan of co-operation between the University and the Newton Theological Institution similar to the arrangement already existing with Andover Theological Seminary, the Episcopal Theological School, and the Boston University Divinity School. The complete text of the motion follows:

Voted, on recommendation of the Faculty of Divinity, with the approval of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences in so far as their courses are concerned, that for the academic year 1916-17 Graduate Students in Newton Theological Institution and students in the Senior Class who are already Bachelors of Arts, who have attained an average grade of not less than 85 per cent. during the preceding year in the School, may, with the approval of both Faculties, register in the Harvard Divinity School, and take, without charge, a maximum of two Harvard courses as part of their year's work in Newton Theological Institution; it being understood that this agreement does not oblige an instructor to give any course which would not be given were it not for students in Newton Theological Institution.
