The election of two Seniors to the committee on admissions of the Harvard Club of Boston will be the first step towards the execution of the club's decision to give undergraduates an opportunity to become members in their final year at college. The selection of the two Seniors will be made, it is expected, at the next meeting of the board of directors, in the second week in April.
The methods of admission, as outlined by Philip W. Thomson '02 are as follows: A candidate must be proposed by a member of the club, and seconded by another. Letters of recommendation are addressed by these two to the committee on admission, which numbers in the neighborhood of 20 graduates from various classes. With the committee's approval, the candidate's name is included in the monthly circular sent to all members of the club, and if no objection is received he becomes a member. The admission-fee for men admitted in their Senior year will be $10, in contrast to the $20 required of graduates, it was announced last night.
The contributions in dues from the older of the club's 5000 members enables younger men of modest means to enjoy the privileges of the club. The annual charges are graduated from $10 for the first three years following graduation, to $25 for the next two years, $40 for those between five and seven years out of college, and $50 for the older graduates.
