LOANS TO STUDENTS.
COLLEGE FUND ESTABLISHED. A Students' Loan Fund has been instituted' at Canterbury College under the jurisdiction of the Professorial Board. The purpose of the fund, which has been largely augmented by private subscription, is to enable students to go through their final Of honours' y«af without doihg outside work and thus giving their whole time to study. Deserving Students of not less thaw three acadetnio years' standing will, subject to the approval of the Professorial Board, receive grants up to £IOO. They. will be charged 5 per cent, interest and allowed Up to ten years. to repay the money.- No interest will be 6harged while the'student is still at college. At the present time many students, after having taken their Bachelor|s degree, seek outside work in their honours' year, owing to financial .embarrassment. Their academic work inevitably suffers, and it is hoped that promising Bttidents, under the foregoing scheme, will be able to devote their whole time to Study in their honours' _ year.
