Abstract
AT a college meeting in 1891, Sir William Thomson said:—“I have been a student of the University of Glasgow fifty-five years to-day, and I hope to continue a student of the University as long as I live.” In 1899, when he retired from the professorship which he had held for fifty-three years, Lord Kelvin (as he had then become) applied to the Senatus Academicus to be appointed a research student. His name thus remained to the last upon the College roll, and in the list of those who have a right to pursue investigations in the laboratories of natural philosophy.
