At a recent meeting of the officers of the Sophomore class, a committee of nine members of the class was appointed to bring foreign students into a closer relationship with the class as an organization and as a social institution. This committee is made up as follows: Chairman, Otis Radcliffe Rice of Springfield; secretary, Hiller Innes of Boston; Alden Briggs of Brookline; John Howland Ricketson 3rd of Pittsburgh, Pa.; Reginald Perry Rose of Old Westbury, Long Island; Loring Whitman of Boston; Benjamin Franklin Rice-Bassett of New York City; and Henry Trangott Dunker of Davenport, Ia. The last two, as president and vice-president, respectively, of the class, are members ex-officio.
It has for a long time been felt, not only among members of the class of 1925, but in other classes in the University, that few students from foreign lands had an opportunity to get into accord with the rest of the class, and particularly with its organizations. This new committee, which will hold its first meeting next Tuesday, will attempt to bring the 1925 foreign students and the rest of the class into closer relationship.
At Present, a series of dinners and smokers is being planned, and more definite arrangements will be made at the meeting on Tuesday, when the whole subject will be discussed.
A feature of this new committee and its plans is that it is strictly a class organization, having no connection with other institutions. It will be known as the "Committee on the Reception of Foreign Students in the Class of 1925."
