Announcement was made by Dr. Nevils that the custom of presenting | | diplomas in person to each graduate | at the commencement. exercises is to be discontinued this June. Only the seniors of the graduate department of the university are o be handed their diplomas. A number of reasons enter into the change of custom which has been tradi- tional at Georgetown. The most im- portant reason is the large number of graduates and the necessity of shorten- ing the length of the exercises. George- town has clung to the custom longer than most universities of its size, and on June 10 the dean of each depart- ment will merely read the list of stu- dents he is presenting for graduation.
