MONTHLY CIRCULAR.
At the end of every month, a circular letter is addressed by
the Chairman of the Faculty to the parent or guardian of each
student, in which are stated his absences from lectures and
examinations, and any other irregularity of which he may have
been guilty, together with such further information as to the
student's progress and conduct as it may be deemed proper to
communicate.
The object of such report being, on the one hand, to incite
the student to steady diligence, by eliciting the commendation
and encouragement of his friends; and, on the other, to restrain
45
by their admonition and advice; the usefulness of these circulars
greatly depends upon the prompt and judicious attention
they receive from those to whom they are addressed. Parents
and guardians, therefore, cannot be too earnest in communicating
such advice or encouragement as the monthly report may
suggest.
