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 him from
idleness and disorder, or to urge him to amendment by their admonition
and advice, the usefulness of these circulars greatly depends
upon the prompt and judicious attention they receicve from those to
whom they are addressed. Parents and guardians, therefore, cannot
as the monthly report may suggest.
