close of the collegiate session, and are conducted principally by printed papers, but in some portions vivá voce. Each professor examines in his own special subject, and then reports to the Council his recommendations. No matriculated student can be received into a senior class who shall not have been so examined and recommended. A supplemental examination for promotion of such students as may have been prevented by illness, or other reasonable and validly established cause, from appearing at the ordinary time, will be held at the commencement of the session, after the conclusion of scholarship examinations.

The students who, in the respective classes, manifest the highest proficiency at the sessional examinations, may be further recommended by the professors to the Council for the distinction of collegiate honours. These class honours consist of prizes of books and certificates; they are awarded by the Council on the report of the professor at the close of the session, and are conferred by the President at a public assembly of the College at the opening of the next session.

GENERAL REGULATIONS

FOR THE COURSES AND ALLOCATION OF SCHOLARSHIPS

FOR 1851-52.

THE scholarships founded by the liberality of Her Majesty in this College, are not merely to be considered in the light of exhibitions or burses, to which the successful candidate becomes entitled on passing a certain examination, but are intended to secure the continuous prosecution of the College course of studies by the Scholar during the entire time for which the scholarship is held; and further, the Scholar, becoming a member and subofficer of the College, has assigned to him, by the Statutes, duties to be fulfilled of such a nature as shall not interfere with his studies, and under the direction of the College Council; and the tenure of scholarship is dependent on that continuous prosecution of studies and performance of collegiate duties by the Scholar. Scholar is in every respect subject to the rules of discipline regarding students, and if suspended or removed from College, or if, by non-attendance of lectures, he should not keep the proper terms for promotion, the scholarship becomes void, and shall be so declared by the Council, who shall proceed to confer the scholarship so vacated on the candidate who had been next in merit at the scholarship examination.

The scholarship endowment is paid by quarterly payments to the students who are certified to the Bursar as having been appointed to scholarships by the Council.
