Excerpt from The Wellesley Prelude, Vol. 2: October 25, 1890At the recommendation of the Faculty, the Trustees have amended one of the statutes of the College, in regard to attendance at Chapel and Church services, so that, as it now reads, Chapel services on Sunday evening and Monday morning are not required.By this change, two of the former eight required religious services a week are made optional, leaving six still required. Two voluntary services are certainly better than none.To simplify the task of keeping the records of Chapel and church attendance, a change has been made in method of handing in excuses. Now all absences, for any reason whatsoever, are reported by excuses placed in a box near the General Office door. Students attending church in the village, by permission, state the fact on the excuse. Students whose absence from services is caused by absence from College specify the fact on the excuse. This applies to students in cottages who are away over Sunday, for such absences are no longer reported at the General Office by the heads of houses, as formerly. Keeping the record of attendance would be much simpler, if in addition to attending promptly to her excuses, each student would be particular to sit always in the row to which she is assigned.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
