The faculty of Cornell University adopted resolutions at its last meeting to increase the entrance requirements for the course in architecture. After June, 1S04, all applicants for the course will be examined in higher algebra, plane and spherical rigonoinetry, solid geometry, and French or German, in addition to the primary entrance requirements. This puts the course in architecture on the same basis as the other technical courses, the entrance requirement for which will be raised at the same time. All of the technical courses are greatly crowded and it has been found necessary to limit numbers in some way or other. It has always been the policy of Cornell to encourage the sons of poor men, and instead of limiting applicants by raising tuition, which, would bar out many deserving students, the entrance requirements have been raised.

Knowledge, not wealth, is made the basis of admission. It costs Cornell $200 in cash and about $100 as interest on material equipments above the price of tuition per annum for every student in the university. So in order to maintain the present high standard and continue its broad progressive policy, it has been found necessary to keep the number of students within certain limits. This year, of nine hundred and some odd applicants for admission to the freshman class, only about five hundred were admitted. Heretofore applicants who had received less than three conditions on the entrance examinations were admitted, but this year no one with even a single condition was allowed to enter.
