Abstract
OXFORD.—On February 3 the question of the Natural Science Degree will again come on for discussion in congregation. Last term, it will be remembered, the proposal to grant a special natural science degree was defeated after a close division, the principal opposition to the motion coming from the scientific members of congregation. It was thought that a separate science degree, not carrying with it the privileges of the master of Arts Degree, would be regarded as an inferior degree, and tend to lower the position of science in the University. A clause is now proposed by an influential body of residents—including Prof. Odling, Dr. Mark Pattison, Rector of Lincoln, A. Vernon Harcourt, Prof. Green, Prof. Lawson, and Prof. Nettleship—to the following effect:—“Every person who shall have been admitted to the degree of Master of Natural Science, shall also be admitted to the degree of Master of Arts.”
