EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:
Problems of Improvement n was accomplished largely through Judge J. O. Cunningham, who presented an opinion at the March meeting of 1893 which did much to clear away historical and legal uncertainties respecting the street and made possible a formulation of more definite policies in the matter of thoroughfares and relations with public service companies. Interesting likewise as one of the problems of the early nineties and one not entirely unfamiliar today, was the introduction by Doctor Burrill of recommendations looking toward the leasing of building lots to members of the faculty. The critical shortage of houses at that time inspired the sympathetic suggestion; it was carried to the point of securing an opinion December 16, 1895, from the Attorney General covering the questions involved, but his adverse judgement caused the project to be abandoned. These matters, together with the introduction of petitions for the establishment of a Law School, a domestic science department, for a woman's dormitory, a woman's gymnasium, for advancement of women to professorships, and the first proposal for the affiliation of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, give fair indication of a broadening horizon.
