Supplement to 1899-1900
The last six months of 1900 closed one epoch
and initiated another in the history of Queen's.
Steps had already been taken with regard
to proposed radical changes in the Constitution, by
the action of the Board of Trustees on May 2nd.
At the general Assembly in Halifax, June
1900, Principal Grant on presenting the
Report of the University, went fully into the
nature of the proposal and the reasons which
actuated the trustees in asking the Assembly to
consider and pronounce upon them, in the light
of the history of Queen's, its relation to the Church,

referred to in the Report of Queen's University,
to have the Theological Faculty under the care of
a special Board appointed by the Assembly, and
would approve any well-considered change in the
Constitution of the University, which would still
further increase its usefulness by
making the body of Trustees more
