There are also two boarding clubs within the precincts of the University
instituted by the Faculty, and under the control of the Chairman. The
affairs of the club are administered by a superintendent appointed by the
Chairman. The accounts of the superintendent are audited monthly by
a committee, consisting of the President and two other members of the
club, before being presented to the Proctor for payment. The expense
of board to each member of the club is a deposit of $5 with the Proctor
for outfit of club-halls, and a monthly charge of $10 for diet and servant's
attendance, with fuel and lights for dining-halls. Furniture for lodging-room,
with fuel and lights, cost $1.50 a month.
