Filed under: — ivan @ 7:06 pm

If any Scholar shall be absent from any lecture, recitation, disputation, or other classical exercise duly appointed, he may be fined three cents.

If any Scholar shall play at hand or foot-ball in the College-yard, or throw any thing against the College-buildings or fence, by which they may be in danger of damage, he shall be fined eight cents.

If any Scholar shall frequently neglect the public exercises of religion and instruction, or if he shall spend the hours of study in idleness and manifest a prevailing inclination to wickedness and a dissolute behaviour, or if he entices others from their studies and draws them into bad practices, he shall be dismissed from the College, or rusticated for a year and put back into the next Class.

Laws of Yale College, 1795
