Abstract
OXFORD.—The opponents of the statute allowing exemption from Greek in the case of candidates for honours in mathematics and natural science, which is to be submitted to Convocation on November 28, have put out a circular in which their objections are stated. One of their principal contentions is that when Greek becomes optional at the universities, the teaching of that language will be given up at many of the smaller schools throughout the country, and that in consequence many boys who are capable of profiting by the study will be deprived of the opportunity of instruction in Greek during their school career. The authors of the document say that while deprecating the abolition of compulsory Greek, they are favourable to a reform in existing methods of teaching and examination.
