[In the year 1901-2 the prize was awarded in the Faculty of Science; in 1902-3 in the Faculty of Arts; in 1903-4 in the Faculty of Divinity; in 1904-5 in the Faculty of Law; in 1905-6 in the Faculty of Medicine; the next award in the Faculty of Science will be in 1931-32, and so on in the same rotation.] 2. The Prize shall be annually awarded to the Graduate in the Faculty of Science, Arts, Divinity, Law or Medicine, as the case may be, who is selected by the Senatus as the most distinguished graduate of the year, upon a report by the Faculty in which the Prize falls to be awarded in the year in question, after consultation with the professors and lecturers concerned. 1901-02 (Science) 1902-03 (Arts) 1907-08 (Arts). 1908-09 (Divinity). 1911-12 (Science). 1912-13 (Arts). 1918-19 (Divinity). 1923-24 (Divinity). 1926-27 (Science) PRIZEMEN.
