New Dormitory Scheme at Yale

Notices have been sent out by the Yale faculty that students of the academic department will not be allowed to live in private dormitories after the close of the coming year. By next summer the faculty expects to have plenty of dormitory accommodations ready for the students of the college, and they have sent out notification of the new rule a year ahead of time, in order that the New Haven capitalists who own the private dormitories may have opportunity to transform them for other uses.

The Wright memorial dormitory, which is being built, will be available in another year, and still another dormitory will be built at High and Library streets. The Garland and Clark corporation private dormitories, in York street, will be affected by the new order. The erection of the new dormitories will open a new college square in the city centre, bounded by York, Elm, Library and High streets. The interior will be laid out with walks and fences, like the other quadrangles.
