COURSE OF STUDY

The courses of study remain substantially as shown in the Catalogue and Register accompanying the last preceding report. The course of study in the Latin School or Preparatory Deparatment, however, at the last June meeting was extended over three years, instead of two, as theretofore.

This course was deemed advisable to meet the demand made on the University for preparatory training.

In view of the small number of schools in the State where such training can at present be thoroughly done, doubtless this demand will continue to exist for some years.

SUB-FRESHMAN DEPARTMENT.

To make necessary provision for instruction in branches preparatory to entering the University classes, this department has been organized. All the Latin, Greek, and German required for admission to the Freshman class are taught in this department. And, besides furnishing opportunity for reviewing English Grammar and Analysis, instruction is also given in Higher Arithmetic, Algebra, Elementary Philosophy, History, etc.; so as to fit the student in the fullest manner for the studies of the University Course.

Students applying for admission to this department must be prepared for examination in the ordinary common school branches.
