the awards may be further subdivided, or combined to afford
full tuition, when the qualifications of the contestants make this
advisable. They are awarded at the end of each year to students
of the freshman and sophomore classes, on the basis of a competition
of the character described below.
JUNIOR TRAVEL PRIZES
Two Travel Prizes, each carrying an award of $900, have
been established through the liberality of anonymous donors, in
order to emphasize the educational value of travel as a means
of broadening the student's cultural and professional view-points.
These two travel prizes are awarded, at the end of the second
term of each year, to the two most worthy students in
the junior class upon the basis of a competition carried out
as described below. They are to be used for a trip to Europe
during the vacation between the junior and senior years. These
tours are planned in consultation with representatives of the
Faculty Committee on Honor Students, and include about ten
days' sightseeing in the United States on the way to Europe and
on the return. The winners of the prizes are expected to keep
a diary of their experiences, and upon their return to file with
the Institute a summarized report of their travels and expenses;
and to present an interesting account of some of their experiences
at an Assembly of the student body.
