Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Reports of President and the Treasurer of Harvard College, 1898-99 The new scheme permits a free option for Greek instead of the restricted Option which has been allowed at Harvard College for many years. Boys who are unable or unwilling to study Greek may present instead of that language a_ modern language, history, ancient or modern, or scientific subjects selected from a considerable group. Although nineteen points out of twenty-six appear to be required under the new scheme, (see the report of the Dean of the Faculty, p. 104) it will be observed that in making up the list of nineteen points various options are open to the candidate; so that the amount of the election is larger than at first sight appears. The most notice able peculiarity in the scheme is the absence of English from the list of advanced subjects. In this respect the Faculty acceded to the wishes of the English Department, which thought it wiser not to offer an advanced subject in English for possible competition with advanced Latin or Greek.
