The Law School opens with its largest number ever, and an improved course of  three years, rather than two.  The class of 1898 elects its class day officers.  An article encourages faithful participation in the YMCA Bible study courses offered.  A new elective in English Drama is offered.

The new school year begins with a large freshman class, and publication of the names of those who matriculated.  Physical Director, Professor Forrest E. Craver resigns and is replaced by John W.

A rather disappointing Belles Lettres Sophomore Oratorical contest is held.  The Law School again performs its production of "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr.  Hyde" in the Opera House, due to its popularity.  The editors suggest that oratorical contests be moved to a different time of year, to allow for more participation.  Dr. Beaver, State Secretary of the College Associations, speaks to the YMCA on life as a minister.  General Horatio King, honorary alumnus, dies in Washington.  Senior class rankings announced.

The Microcosm is soon to be released and should be a good one.  The play "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is performed to raise money for the Law School.  The Belles Lettres and Union Philosophical Literary Societies hold oratorical contests.  The Seniors take their class trip to Doubling Gap.  The Freshmen compete in the annual Freshman oratorical contest for the Cole and Walkley prizes.  The Junior class will give its Cremation Play, a revival of a tradition not performed since 1893.

Annual reception for the Seniors and Middle Classmen of the Law School. Dance given in the Assembly Hall in honor of Miss Florence Chapman. A performance of "Eurydice" will be given in Bosler Hall. Cole and Walkley prizes are given out. The New York Ladies Trio will perform in Bosler.
