Rules for Bowdoin Prizes Posted

The conditions and requirements for competing for the Bowdoin prizes for dissertations in English, have been posted in the south entry of University Hall and will be posted in various of the other college buildings Monday. The prizes were founded by Governor Bowdoin in the eighteenth century and have been taken by many famous men, among whom is Ralph Waido Emerson. The fund for these prizes has been increased in recent years by a descendant of Governor Bowdoin so that now the first prize for undergraduates is $250. There are also two second prizes of $100 each.
