A DEFINITE PROGRAM

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

No longer can undergraduates bewail the unbearable condition of indecision that has existed for the last two weeks. After careful deliberation the Faculty has passed a splendid resolution which will satisfy the most ardent militarists and most zealous patriots. Harvard men can feel assured that their University is still keeping far in the lead and giving the Government greater assistance in the task of training officers than it has ever asked for.

With a strong definite program outlined, there are three immediate aims for undergraduates. Since the special final examinations will be held soon after the April recess all those in the R. O. T. C. should avail themselves of the short interval between now and then to prepare to finish their year's work in a creditable manner. Concentration on scholastic work at this time is necessarily difficult, but upon the future return to College studies a good record now will fully justify a few short weeks of hard study. Secondly, men should realize the seriousness of their service to the state, and make a firm resolve to enter upon their intensive training with every faculty at concert pitch, so that they may become efficient officers as soon as possible. Lastly, the many that are not under training at present should sacrifice everything within reason to join the new units which are soon to be formed. The University authorities have already done their part in an admirable way. It is now up to the students to show that they are worthy of the patriotic concessions already granted.
