STATISTICS OF THE SENIOR CLASS.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

WE have received from the Class Secretary the statistics of the class of '76, the most interesting parts of which are given below. At present it is impossible to determine the exact percentage out of the class to be allotted to each profession, there being now so many undecided men, who probably within a short time will make choices which will greatly change the statistics, As far as returns have been received the intended occupations of the class are as follows:-

Law . . . . 32 Theology . . . 4

Undecided . . . 32 Teaching . . . 3

Medicine . . . 7 Architecture . . . 2

Mercantile pursuits . . . . . 6

Art, Chemistry, Study, Journalism, "Leisure," and Railroading have each one follower.

As regards the religious tendencies of the class, we find that the Unitarians are the most numerous, and that an equal number have no particular religion. Next in number come the Congregationalists and the Episcopalians. The list is as follows:-

Unitarian . . . 19 Universalists . . . 4

No religion . . . 19 Liberal . . . . 3

Congregationalists . . 17 Methodists . . . 3

Episcopalians . . . 16 Baptists . . . . 2

Undecided . . . . . 6

The age of the youngest man in the class is 19 years 8 months; that of the oldest 31 years. The average age is 22 years 2 months.
