NEW ZEALAND UNIVERSITY.
SENATE SITTING. [BY TELEGBAPH — PKESS ASSOCIATION.] CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. The New Zealand University Senate this morning agreed that candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree be permitted to take Hebrew as a repeat subject. The definition of the work for examination is to be revised to bring Hebrew into line with Greek and Latin. A motion by the Rev. A. Cameron to permit candidates for matriculation • who are over 20 years of age to take the examination in two parts was lost. A committee was set up to consider means of encouraging the study of history, and to confer with teachers in colleges and secondary schools on the subject. It was agreed to apply to the Lon,don University for recognition of the matriculation examination of the New Zealand University; also to write to the commissioners of the 1851 Exhibition to offer their Science Scholarship annually.
