Abstract
IN your paragraph (NATURE, September 27, p. 543) on the new Senate about to be elected in the University of London, you have put the issue as it has occurred to me. I have not been able to give my support to either of the two bodies which have set their electoral machinery in motion, for the simple reason that neither of them has produced a list of names of candidates in which higher educational work is adequately represented. I thoroughly endorse your remark that βIt would be nothing less than a calamity were Convocation to elect sixteen irreconcilables with no idea outside that of introducing the peculiar needs of the external student into all deliberations of the Senate.β
