BOSTON, MARCH, 1887. Von. XIV. Colleges, universities, and olher institutions receiving this volume of the YEAR Book, are respectfully requested to acknowledge the same by for- warding to its Editors a copy of each new Catalogue, Annual Report, or similar publication. All correspondence with reference to admission to any College or School of this University should be addressed to the appropriate Dean. A NEW feature of the year in the College of Liberal Arts, was the academic address delivered on the Opening Day, by Dean Huntington, on The Learning that is Liberal. It was printed in The University Beacon for December. On the 10th of November the commodious new hall of the School of Theology was dedicated. Bishop John F. Hurst delivered the dedicatory discou1'se, taking as his theme, The Theology of the Twentieth Cen- tury. More than a hundred students were at once enrolled, thus prov- ing that the enlarged accommodations were provided none too soon. The entering class was, with a single exception, the largest ever received in the school. ' Last November, at the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the oldest of the American colleges, the orator of the day, the Hon. James Russell Lowell, made excellent reply to those who would fain destroy the fixed significance of the academic degrees in arts, and substitute for the traditional classical training, a lawless eclecticism, or a narrowing and deforming specialism. He said, I had rather the col- lege should turn out one of Aristotle's four-square men, capable of hold- ing his own in whatever Held he may be cast, than a score of lop-sided ones, developed abnormally in one direction. g . . . I am familiar with the arguments for making the, study of Greek, especially, a matter of choice or chance. I admit their plausibility and the honesty of those who urge them. I should be willing, also, toadmlt that the study of the ancient languages, without the hope or the prospect of going on to what they contain, would be useful only as a form of intellectual gymnastics. Even so, they would be as serviceable as the higher mathematics to most of ,us. But I think that a wise teacher should adapt his tasks to the highest, and not the lowest, capacities of the taught. For those lower, also, they would not be wholly without profit. When there is a tedious sermon, says George Herbert, X ' God takes n text, and tenchoth pntlonce,' not the least pregnant of lessons. One of the arguments against the compulsory study of Greek, namely, that it is wiser to give our time to 4 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. modern languages and modern history than to dead languages and ancient history, involves, I think, a verbal fallacy. Only those languages can properly be called dead, in which nothing living has been written. If the classic languages are dead, they yet speak to us, and with a clearer voice than that of any living tongue. I ' Grnlls lngenlum, Grnlls dedlt ore rotundo 1 Musa loqul praeter laudem nulllus avarls.' If their language is dead, yet the literature it enshrines is rammed with life as, perhaps, no other writing, except Shakspeare's, ever was or will be. It is as contemporary with to-day as with the ears it first enraptured, for it appeals not to the man of then or now, but to the entire round of human nature itself. Men are ephemeral or evanescentg but whatever page the authentic soul of man has touched with her immortalizlng finger, no matter how long ago, is still young and fair as it was to the world's gray fathers. Oblivion looks in the face of the Grecian muse, only to forget her purpose. Even for the mastering of our own tongue, there is no expedient so fruitful as translation out of anotherg how much more when that other is a language at once so precise and so flexible as the Greek? Greek literature is also the most fruitful com- ment on our own. Coleridge has told us with what profit he was made to study Shakspeare and Milton, ln conjunction with the Greek drama- tists. It is no sentimental argument for this study that the most justly balanced, the most serene, and the most fecundatlng minds since the revival of learning, have been saturated with Greek literature. We know not whither other studies will lead un, especially if dissociated from this: we do not know to what summits, far above our lower region of turmoil, this has led, and what the many-sided outlook thence. Will such studies make anachronisms of us? Unfit us for the duties and the business of to-day ? I can recall no writer more truly modern than Montaigne, who was almost more at home in Athens and Rome than in Paris. Yet he was a thrifty manager of his estate, and a most competent mayor of Bordeaux. I remember passing once in London where demo- lltion for a new thoroughfare was going on. Many houses left standing in the rear of those cleared away, bore signs with the inscription, Ancient Lights. This was the protest of their owners against being built out by the new improvements from such glimpse of heaven as their fathers had, without adequate equivalent. I laid the moral to heart. During the current year, in compliance with oft-repeated petitions from eminent and influential citizens, the Trustees of the Clty Hospital of Boston ltave officially decided and announced, that hereafter the operations and instruction of the amphltheatre shall be open to female medical students upon the same terms and conditions as to male. As these advantages are without fee, and as the Hospital is located just across the street from the School of Medicine, the new measure brings an important addition to the facilities of this department.

Bos'roN UNIVERSITY was chartered by the Commonwealth of Mas- sachusetts in the year of our Lord 1869. The three gentlemen named in the Charter as the original corporators were Isaac Rich, Esquire, the Honorable Lee Clafiin, and the Honorable Jacob Sleeper, all of whom had held responsible positions in the government of one or more of the older New-England colleges, and the last of whom had served as a State-appointed Overseer of Harvard University for a. period oftwelve years. The Governor of the Commonwealth who officially approved and signed the act of incorporation was a son of the second of the original corporators. The Corporation. - Under the provisions of the Charter, the power of receiving, holding, and administering funds, establishing departments of instruction, appointing officers of instruction and gov- ernment, providing suitable buildings and appliances, conferring degrees, and, in general, the power of directing the administration, vests in the Corporation, whose legal title is U The Trustees of Boston University. The body consists of the President of the University ez-officio, and five classes of Trustees elected from year to year for the term of five years. The whole number must not be less than ten nor more than thirty. In the year 1883 the Corporation was granted a Charter by the Legislature of the State of New York, the first section of which is as follows: U The Trustees of the Boston University, a corporation organ- ized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Massachusetts, are hereby authorized and empowered to take and hold lands in this State, by devise, or under the provisions of any will, in the same manner and under the same limitations applicable to benevolent and scientific corporations organized under the laws of this State. The University Council. - Under the provisions of the stat- utes of organization, the President of the University, the Registrar, and the Deans of the several departments, constitute the University Council. To this body belongs, among other duties, that of secur- ing an harmonious adjustment of all inter-departmental questions of administration. 8 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. The University Senate. -- The members of the University Council, together with all the regular professors in the different schools and colleges, constitute the University Senate. All promotions to degrees are in the name of this body and of the Corporation. The University Convocation. - This body consists of all persons who have acquired any Degree or Diploma of Graduation in the University. Every promotion to a degree, or to the status of a graduate, is, accordingly, promotion to membership in the Convocation with defined privileges of representation in the government of the University, and with corresponding duties. The Boards of Visitors. - Boards of Visitors are annually ap- pointed by the Trustees for the inspection of the work of the several Colleges and Schools, and for the making of reports to the Corpora- tion. The chairman of the standing committee of the Corporation on a College or School is in each case ex-ojicio chairman of the Board of Visitors of said School or College, and is charged with the duty of calling the meetings, and of presenting the reports of the said Board to the Trustees of the University. The Colleges.-The Statutes of the University provide for a group of Colleges with distinct Faculties and administrations. The College of Liberal Arts and the College of Music were opened almost immediately after the University was chartered, while the place of the College of Agriculture has been supplied since January, 1875, by the Massachusetts Agricultural College. The Professional Schools. -All departments of the Univer- sity so organized as to presuppose on the part of the student a colle- giate preparation, or its equivalent, are called Schools. The three of these which are organized and administered in the interest of persons preparing for the learned professions are called The Professional Schools. The School of All Sciences. -This department is for gradu- ate students only. Since 1875 its regular members enjoy the privi- lege of free tuition in the National University at Athens, and in the Royal University at Rome. N Fundamental Principles. -The eleventh Annual Report, is- sued January, .l885, presents at some length a number of the more important of the ideas, or principles, which underlie the entire plan, and which have determined the actual organic form of the institution. - FOUNDERS OF THE UNIVERSITY.

A FEW evenings since, as I was walking up one of the main streets of Tokio, I encountered an experience not soon to be forgotten. My companion, who was the American minister to the Mikado's court, was pointing out to me ata considerable distance a large hall, called the Meiji Kuaido, and explaining that though now belonging to the government, it was originally built in a spirit of opposition to Christian missions and was de- signed to be a kind of headquarters for all who wished to rehabilitate the old religions, or in any way to oppose the spread of tl1c Christian faith. While he was narrating some incidents connected with it we came nearer and nearer, but soon found our further progress blocked by an altogether unprecedented crowd of people, evidently made up of the most diverse nationali- ties. It filled not only the approaches to the building, but also the whole street for some distance in front and on either side. Upon inquiry we learned that a convention of quite unusual interest was in progress and that all these people which the building could not contain were waiting to learn what they could of the progress of the deliberations within. One man kindly showed us a copy of the call under which the assembly had been brought together. At its top I read these words: ff World's Convention for the Definition and Promulgation of a Perfect and Universal Religion. 'The provisions under which the Delegates were to be appointed, and the Convention organ- ized, were carefully drawn and admirably adapted to secure a most weighty and representative body. Nearly every religion 1 Baccalaureate Address by Rev. William F. Warren, S.T.D., .LL.D., President ot Boston University.

Of course I was at once intensely in- terested to see so rare a body-the first of its kind in the history of the world. I But the crowd was so dense I was almost in despair. Fortunately in our extremity two stout policemen recognized my companion, and knowing his ainbassadorial char- acter undertook to make a way for us and to bring us into the hall. The struggle was long and severe, but at last our faithful guides succeeded in edging us into an overcrowded balcony to a standing-place from which nearly the whole body of the delegates could be seen. Never can I forget that many hued and strangely clad assembly. Nearly every delegation had some sacred banner, or other symbol, by which it might be dis- tinguished. In the centre of the hall was the yellow silken banner of the Chinese Dragon. On the left I saw the crescent of Islamg on the right the streamers of the Grand Lama of Thibet. 'Not far away was the seven-storied sacred umbrella of Burmah, and beyond it the gaudy feather-work of a dusky dele- gation from Ashantee. In one corner I even thought I recog- nized the totem of one of our Indian tribes of Alaska. On the programme there were five questions, each evidently framed with a view to make its discussion and' answer contrib- ute toward the common end, the definition of a perfect and uni- versal religion. The first read as follows: Can there be more than o11e perfect religion? The opening of the discus- sion of this had been assigned to a great Buddhist teacher from Ceylon. The second question, to be opened by a Mohamme- dan, was : H What kind of an object of worship must a perfect religion present? The third was assigned to a Taoist, and was thus formulated: 'f What must a perfect religion demand of, and promise to, the sincere worshipper? The fourth, assigned to a Hindu pundit, was the following: In what relation must the divine object and the human subject stand to each other in a perfect religion? The fifth and last question read: By what credentials shall a perfect religion, if ever found, be known? The honorx and responsibility of opening this last and highest of the' proposed dischssions was reserved to the official head of the Shinto priesthood of Japan, the highest representative of the ancestral faith of the Einpire. ATHE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 21 As soon as my friend and I could get our bearings, we were pleased to find that only one of the questions had been discussed and acted upon by the Convention before our arrival. W'e were told that the assembly had been opened by the President desig- nated in the callg and that nothing on earth was ever more impressive than the three minutes of silent prayer which fol- lowed the uplifting of the Chairman's hand and eye. After this there had been a brief address of welcome from the Com- mittee of Arrangements, a few words of thanks from the Presi- dent in response 3 then a short opening address by the President, and the introduction of the distinguished Buddhist representa- tive from Ceylon, who was to discuss the question: Can there be more than one perfect religion? To a Buddhist, there could be, of course, but one answer to this question, and that a negative. But he argued it -- as our informants told us - with wonderful tact as well as power. I-le kept the qualifica- tion tt perfect so prominently before his hearers' minds that however accustomed any of them might be to think and say that there may be and are many good religions, none could fail to see that of perfect religions there could be but one. He also carefully abstained from identifying his own system with the perfect religion, and thus avoided the mistake of exciting the jealousy of rival religionists. So complete had been his success, that after a short discussion in which several very diverse speakers participated, a venerable Parsee had moved, and just before our arrival the Convention had unanimously adopted the following resolution: Resolved, that in the opinion of this World's Convention there can be but one perfect religion.'T While we were getting hold of these facts we lost the Presi- dent's introduction of the second pre-appointed speaker. We soon lerned, however, that he was the senior moulvie of the great Mohammedan University at Cairo, a school of Islam in which there are all the time about ten thousand students in preparation for the duties of public religious teachers and ehanters -of prayers. His piercing eye and snow-white beard and vigorous frame would have made him anywhere a man of mark. Seated after his manner of teaching in the mosque upon a low bamboo 'frame, clad in his ofilcial robe, he looked like a resurrected Old Testament prophet-an Isaiah in living form 22 BOSTON UNIVERSITY rE.41e 30015. before ns. At first I wondered 'if he would be able to speak to so modern a question as the one assigned him : What kind of an object of worship must a perfect religion present? Time would fail me were I to attempt to report with any ful- ness his rhythmic speech. It was Oriental through and through -quaint, poetic, full of apothegms, proverbs, parables, - but it conclusively answered the question. He made even the feather-decked gri-gri worshippers of lVestern Africa see that a. god who knows much about his worshipper, and can do great things for him, is more perfect than a god who knows little and can do but little. Then arguing up and up, he made it plain to every intelligence that a perfect religion necessarily demands a god possessing all knowledge and all'power. It becomes a per- fect religion only by presenting to the worshipper, as the su- preme object of obedience,love and service, a perfect being. He showed also that'perfection in an object of worship required that it be a livingobject, that it have intelligence, rational feel? ings and purposes, in a word, that it possess real and complete personality. It must be possible to address him as a person- ality. i Ile needs to be in every place, to be before all things, in.all things, above all things. Limit him in any respect and the religion you present becomes less than perfect. This was the thought stripped of all its weird and Oriental adornments. But as he expanded and enforced it his eye kindled and his chant-like speech rose and fell, and rose and fell, until we hardly knew whether we were in the body or out ofthe body, so wondrous was the spell wherewith he had bound us., He was followed by an eloquent representative of the Brahmo Somaj, and he in turn by a Persian Babist, both of whom argued in the same line with such effect, that when a picturesquely turbaned representative of the religion of the Sikhs gained the floor and moved that it be the sense of the Convention that a perfect religion must present a perfect god, the whole vast assembly was found to be a unit in aflirming this grand declara- tion. ' Next, of course, came the third question: What must a perfect religion demand of the sincere worshipper, and what must it promise to him? To open its discussion theappointed . I i I THE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 23 Taoist teacher was politely introduced. As his noble form advanced quietly to the front of' the platform in the costume of a Chinese Mandarin of the highest rank, it was at once evident that the better side of Taoism was to be represented, - the ideas of the Tao-teh-king, and not the superstition and jugglery of modern popular Taoism. I-Ie began by saying that it seemed proper for him to start out from the point where the preceding discussion had stopped, tl1e Convention having already voted that there could be but one perfect religion, and that this religion in order to be perfect must present a perfect object of worship. . With both of these propositions he said he was in full accord, provided only that it be constantly borne in mind that the whole discussion related to a purely abstract or hypothetical question. V Now, said he,' ffif a man really had a perfect object of worship, it is plain that his duty toward it would be very differ- ent from that he owes to any of' 'those finite and limited and imperfect divinitics which we and our fathers have been accus- tomed to worship. Our duties to these, and their duties to us, are more analogous to our duty to observe courtesy toward our fellowmenand kindness toward those below us. The moment we picture to ourselves a perfect God, the maker, upholder and governor of all beings, lord even of the celestial and terrestrial spirits whom we are in the habitof' worshipping, that moment we see that the worship of sucl1 a being would of necessity be something very different. As giver of all our powers and possi- bilities, l1e could justly demand that we employ them all for the accomplishment of the purpose for which he gave them. Indeed were he a perfectly rational being it would seem impossible that he should require less. On the other hand such a being would of necessity posf sess both the power and the 'inclination to give to his sincere worshipper the perfect fruit of genuine piety. This can be nothing less than perfect virtue and even exquisite delight in virtue. In a perf'ect piety -all self'-conflict, all internal resistance to good, all self-will, must be absolutely and totally eliminated. All fear-even of that perfect Being-would have to be ab- sentg nay, it would have to be trausmuted into eager uninter- mittcnt love. On the other hand, how unutterably would a. l 24 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. perfect object of worship love and bless a perfectly sincere worshipperl After many other touching words, particularly upon the woe- ful contrast between the ideal and the actual in 1ife,' and upon the arduousncss of the struggle for virtue under every religion, he closed by submitting the following proposition for the further eoirsideration of the Convention : H Resolved, that a perfect religion will have to demand of man a perfect surrender of will and life to a perfect object of worship, and will have to promise him a perfect freedom and satisfaction in the life of goodness. A Suli from Ispahan, a Theosophist from Bombay, and vari- ous other speakers followed, all very nearly agreeing with the first, but some of them preferring a different wording of the resolution. Various amendments were proposed and discussed, until at length the followingsubstitute was offered: H Resolved, that if a perfect religion were possible to imperfect men, it would require of the worshipper a perfect devotion to a perfect god, and would demand of the perfect god a perfect ultimate beatifi- cation of the worshipper. This was unanimously and even enthusiastically adopted. Question four was now in order. The President rose and said : The fourth question reads as follows: 'In what relation must the divine object and the human sulgject stand to each other in a perfect religion? ' The discussion of this question is to be opened by one who has himself ofttimes been the recipient of divine worship, and who represents an ancient and powerful priesthood believed by millions to be a real embodiment of the one divine and eternal Spirit. I have the honor to present to the Convention the venerated head of all the sacred houses of the Brahmins in the holy city of Benares. Calm as his own imposing religion, yet keener than any who had preceded him, the Hindu addressed himself to his allotted task. For twenty minutes he held every eye and commanded every mind. How shall I give you any conception of that cap- tivating discourse? The following is but the barest thread to intimate the great truths touched upon by his master hand. He began by saying that some personal relationship between the worshipper and the worshipped was necessarily involved in the very idea of worship. In this act the worshipper is think- 1 L THE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 25 ing of the object of his Worship, otherwise he is not worshipping. So the being worshipped is thinking of his worshipper, other- wise he is not receiving the worship. Here, then, is mutual simultaneous thought. Each has a place in the consciousness of the other. To this extent they possess a common consciousness. In this fellowship of mutual thought they are mutually related, by it they are vitally and personally connected. This connection may, of course, be of two kinds. If the god is angry with his worshipper, or the worshipper with his god, the relationship is one of hatred and antagonism. If, on the other hand, it is a relation of mutual inclination, -the man sin- cerely seeking to please his god, and the god sincerely seeking to bless his worshipper, it is, of course, a relationship of amity, of good fellowship, of mutual love. But all religions agree that the first of these relationships, that of enmity and estrangement, is ab- normal, one which ought not to be. All religions aim to remove or to transform such a relationship wherever it exists. It is there- fore plain that the perfect religion, if there be one, must require and make the personal relationship between the worshipper and the worshipped a relation of mutual benevolence - a relation of mutual love. Nowhere can there be a perfect religion if the man do not sincerely love his god, and if the god do not sin- cerely love his worshipper. ' Here the speaker raised a most interesting question as to degree. To what extent ought this love to go? There could be but one answer. In a perfect religion the love of the wor- shipper for the worshipped must ot' course be the strongest possible, particularly as the worshipped is himself all-perfect, and hence all-worthy of this love. X So, on the other hand, the love of the worshipped toward the worshlpper ought to be the very strongest possible. What then is thc strongest possible love which the divine can bear to the human and the human to the divine? I cannot enough regret that my limits compel me to suppress his discussion of this pregnant question. I can Only say that from point to point he carried the convictions of his vast audi- ence until he had trinmphantly demonstrated three far-reaching propositions: Q11 That the ever higher and more perfect devo- tion of a worshipper can never reach its supreme intensity until 5 26 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. he is ready, and even desirous, to merge his very will and 1if'e and being in the will and life and being ot' the all-perfect object of his worship. Q23 That the gracious disposition ofthe object worshipped toward the worshippcr can never reach its supreme intensity until the worshipped being is ready, and desirous, to descend from the divine form and 'mode of being and, in ah avatar of compassionate love, take on the form and the limitations of his human worshipper. That in a perfect religion the human subject and the divine object must be set in such rela- tions that it shall be possible for God to become a partaker of hnman nature, and for man in some sense to become a partaker of 'the divine nature. , Profound was the silence which followed this wonderful dis- course. The first to break it was a Professor in the Imperial University of Tokio, a man who, though of European- birth, was incomplete sympathy with the purposes of the Convention. After highly complimenting the Brahmin speaker, he said that he himselt' had long been an admiring student of India's sacred books. lVith the permission ot' the Convention he would like to recite a few lines from one ot' them, the Isa Upanishad, which seemed to'him admirably to express the true relation subsisting between the worshipping soul and the Infinite. 1-Ie then gave the following : Whate'er exists within this universe Is all to be regarded as enveloped By the great Lord, as if wrapped in a vesture. There is one only being who exists Unmoved, yet moving swifter than the mind, Who far outstrips the senses, tho' as gods They strive to reach him, who himself at rest Transcends the fleetest flight of other beingsg Who like the air supports all vital action. He moves, yet moves not, he is far, yet. near, He is within this universe. Whoe'er beholds All living creatures as in him, and him- The universal Spirit-as in all, Henceforth regards no Cl'CRl.l1l'8 with contempt. if Now here --continued the Professor--'4 here' we have the true conception admirably expressed. Because the Universal Spirit is in all things, even in the worshipper, and on the other i THE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 27 hand all things, even the worshipper, are in this Universal Spirit, it is more than possible -it is inevitable - that the divine should have participancy in the human and the human in the divine. Few ol' the great religions ot' the wo1'ld have failed to recognize in some way this basal truth. Even the Shamans of the barbarous tribes claim to exercise divine powers only when personally pos- sessed of divine spirits. In Thibet the faithful see in the distin- guished head olf their hierarchy, the Dalai Lama, - with whose presence we to-day are honored,-fa true divine incarnation. For ages here in Japan the sacred person ot' the Mikado has been recognized as a god in human form. The founders ot' nearly all great religions and states have been held to be descendants, or impersonations, of' the gods. In like manner the apotheosis of dying emperors, Roman and other, shows how natural is the faith that good and great men can take onthe nature and the life divine. Ask India's hundreds of millions. They all aflirm that every human being may aspire to ultimate and absolute identifi- cation with G-od. The even more numerous followers'of,the Buddha hold that, in his enlightenment, Sakya Muni was far superior to any god. Now if such are the conceptions of the actual religions, how certain is it that the ideal, the perfect reli- gion, must provide a recognition of them. I move you, Mr. President, that the propositions ot' our Brahmin orator from Benares be adopted as the voice of this Convention. ' No speaker appearing in the negative, the motion was put and carried without dissent. 4 Thus, with astonishing unanimity, the assembly had reached the final question upon the programme: H By what credentials shall a perfect religion be known? Intenser than ever grew the interest of the delegates. On the answer to this question hung all their hopes as to any prac- tically useful outcome from the holding of this great Ecumenical Convention. Doulily intense was the interest of the on-looking Japanese, for here, in the presence of the World's religions, the highest and most authoritative religious voice ot' their Empire was now to be heard. Breathless was the entire throng as the speaker began : , . X 4' Hail to the Supreme Spirit of Truth. Praise to the Kami of kami --the living essence of the everlasting, ever-living Light. 28 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. 'fWhy are we here, brothers from all climes, why are we here in serious search for the one true and perfect Way? It is because He, in whom are all things, and who is in all things - as sang that Hindu poet-is yearning with ineffable affection to be known of us, his earthly offspring, and to know us as his own. Only lately have I learned this secret. Only since my invitation to address this. World's Convention have my eyes been' opened to the blessed truth. Never before had I been led to meditate upon the necessary implications of a religion abso- lutely perfect. In preparation for my question I was compelled thus to meditate. Scarce had I addressed myself to my task before I began to see what you have seen, and to lay down the propositions which you to-day in due succession have been lay- ing down. I could not help discerning that there can be but one religion truly perfectg that a. religion can never be perfect unless it present a perfect God 5 that no religionlcan be perfect which does not deliver man from sin and death and dowcr him with pure and everlasting blessedness. I could not help per- ceiving that no religion could ever claim perfection in which any gulf is left unfilled between the wo1'shipper and the object of his worship. Oppressed and almost overwhelmed by these great thoughts, convinced that there was no such -perfect 1'eligion in existence, nor any credential by which it could be known, I was yesterday morning alone, in a favorite hermitage by the sound- ing sea, near Yokohama. The whole night I had passed in sleeplessness and fasting. No light had dawned upon my mind. To cool my fevered brain, I strolled upon the seashore up and down, and listened to the solemn beatings of the billows on the sand. . ' I-Iere, in one of my turns, I fell in with a stranger-a sailor fresh from his ship. In conversation I quickly learned that he had followed the sea from early life, that-he had been quite round thelworld, and had seen more wonders than any man it had ever been my fortune to meet. Long time we talked together of lands and peoples underneath the world and all around its great circumference. Repeatedly I was on the point of opening my heart to this plain man and of asking him whether in all his world-wide wanderings he had anywhere found a religion more perfect than that of our ancestors. Every O ' THE QUESTOF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 29 time however I checked myself. I was confident that he would not 'long remain in ignorance of my character and office, and how could I, ehiefpriest of my nation, betray to him such doubt as this my question would imply. I was too proud to place my- self in such an attitude of personal inquiry. And yet perpet- ually this thought recurred: This man has seen cities and mountains and rivers and peoples wl1icl1 you have never seen, and you feel no humiliation in being a learner in these thingsg -why hesitate to ascertain if in religion he may not equally be able to give fresh light and information. At last I broke my proud reserve, and said: 'You must have seen something of the chief religions of the whole world as well. Now, which among them all, strikes you as the best? ' H ' I have seen but one,' was the laconic reply. t lVhat mean you?' I rejoined. 'You have told me of a score of peoples and lands and cities whose temples you must have seen, and whose rites you must have witnessed? 't 'There is but one rcligion,' he repeated. 4' 'Explain,' I demanded of him again. ' it 4 I-Iow many do you make? ' he said, evading my question. HI paused a moment. I was about to answer: tAt least a larger 'number than there are of different tribes and peoples,' -- but in my hesitation I was struck by the strange agreement be- tween his enigmatic utterance and my own previous conclusion that there could be but one perfect religion. Someway I yielded to the impulse to mention the coincidence. fDo you mean,' I added, 4 that there can be but one religion worthy of the name? ' 't My sacrifice of p1'ide'had its reward. It won an answering confidence, and unsealed the stranger's lips. if 4 I-Iave you time,' he said, 'to hear a sailor's story? More than sixty years ago I was born in a beautiful home hard by the base of our holy mountain, the Fusijama. This very evening I start to visit the scenes of my boyhood, after an absence of more than forty years. My father and mother were persons of deep piety, and from the first had dedicated me, as their first- born, to the service of the gods. At an early age I was placed in the care of a community of priests who kept one of the chief shrines of my native province. I-Iere I was to be trained up for the same holy priesthood. For some years I was delighted with x ' I 30 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR' BOOK. my companions, with my tasks, and with my prospects. But at length, as I grew more and more mature, and as my medita- tions turned oftener upon the mysteries of the world and of life, an inexpressible sadness gradually mastered me, I shrank from the calling to which I had been destined. I said to myself, How can I teach men tl1e way of the gods when I know it not myself? How long have I yearned to find the way of peace and the way of virtue! How long have I cried unto all the kami of heaven and all the kami of earth to teach it me! ,Yet even while I see the good I love that which is not good. I do myself the things which I condemn in others. I teach others to bc truthful, but before an hour has passed I have lied to myself, -have done or said what I had promised myself I would not. I love myself more than I love virtue, and then I hate myself because I love myself so well. I am at war within. O who shall deliver me, who can give me peace? i H ' As time passed' on I 'became more and more the prey of this consuming melancholy. The time was at hand when my period of pupilage was to end and I was to be given the dignity of full admission to the sacred priesthood. The night before the day appointed for the ceremony my agony was too great for human endurance. Under the friendly cover of the darkness I fled from the sacred precincts of the temple, fled from the lov- ing parents and friends who had come to witness my promo- tion. A wretched fugitive I arrived at this very port which now stretches itself out before our eyes.I I-Iere I shipped as a sailor and sought the uttermost parts of , the earth. H ' Years on years I kept to the high seas, always choosing the ships which would take me farthest from the scenes with which I had become familiar. Ail great ports I visited, many a language I learned. Steadily I prayed the gods some time to bring me to some haven where I might learn the secret of a. holy peace within. I H 'At last one day--I can never forget it-in a great city many thousand miles toward the sunrise, a city' which is the commercial metropolis of the greatest republic in the world, - I was pacing heavy-hearted up and down a massive pier at which lay vessels from many a nation. The wharves were per- fectly quietfor it was a holy day. ' I was sadder than usual for I l I THE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. '31 was thinking of my useless prayers. Ilwas saying to 'myselfz I am as blind as ever, as much at war within. So many, many years have I prayed and waited, and waited and prayed. The gods have neither brought me to the truth nor tl1e truth to me. In my bitterness I said, The gods themselves are false, men's faith inrtlhem is false. There a1'e no gods, there can be none. They would have some compassion, they would regard my cries. Bursting into tears, I sobbed out: I cannot live in such a world. I cannot live. Let me but sink in death's eter- nal night. And as I sobbed out the bitter cry the rippling water in the dock sparkled in my eyes and seemed to say, Come, come, one brave leap only and I will give thee peace! 'Just tl1en a handsome stranger, arrested perhaps by my strange behavior, stopped in passing and spoke to me. In words of tender sympathy he asked my trouble. Too weak to resist, I told him all. How beamed his face with gladness! f'Come with me, he said, 'fthis very day your year-long prayers are to be answered. I followed, and a few rods dis- tant he showed me what I had never seen before, a iioating temple which he had in charge. It was dedicated, I was told, to the great God. And when I asked which great god, the priest of the beaming countenance said: Ilave you never heard of the great lKing above all gods? Then he brought out a holy book and read to me these words: HO 'comeilet us sing unto the Lordg let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make ajoyful noise unto him with psalms. For the Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of tl1e earth, thekstrength of the hills is his also. The sea. is his and he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. O come let us worship and bow down, let us kneel be- fore tl1e Lord our maker. He is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hancl. ' U 'Then this strangely joyful man - Hcdstrom was his name --told me that this great God did truly care for every man who truly yearns for inward peace. He said he was a-rewarder of all who diligently seek him, that he so loved the world that 11e gave his only begotten Son forthe saving of all who want to be saved from sin, from self condemnation and despair. He X 32 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. assured me over and over that this divine Son was both able and willing to save to the uttermost all who come unto God through him. I could hardly believe such tidings. I said, You mean that all your countrymen who thus come to your patron God may find peace and divine favor. 4' No, he responded, H I mean all-mean you-mean everybody whom this greatvbeing has made to dwell on all the face of the earth, for as the I-Ioly Book says: there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name ofthe Lord shall be saved. ' But do you mean that 1 can call upon him and be deliv- ered from this load I have carried so many years? ' 4' 'Certainlyf 4 H 4 And be delivered now? ' ' ' Certainly. Now - says the sacred book - is the accepted time, behold now is the day of salvation! U ' It was enough. Down I fell upon my face. Aloud I cried unto the Great God. Through his Son I sought to come unto him. But, believe me, before I could well frame my words, --it was the day of salvation. My weary load was gone. My heart was full of peace and of strange new life. I knew that there exists a power which can deliver man and plant within him everlasting blessednessf W Gentlemen of tl1e World's Convention, one word and the story of that wanderer is complete. That truant sailor proved to be my own elder brother, proved to be the long lost son to fill whose vacant place my mourning parents had dedi ated me to this same holy calling. My heart was broken with a c ouble joy at this discovery. And before we left that wave-worn shore the day of salvation had also dawned on me. To-day I can .testify that a perfect religion is not a dream. To-day I possess and can give you its credentials. I -Just at this point in the speaker's remarks the long-con- tinued closeness of the atmosphere and the crushing pressure ot the crowd proved more than I could bear. A ,certain dizziness came over me and I had to be carried from the hall. IVhen I next came to consciousness, it took me a long, long time to dis- cover that I was safe at home in my study chair, and that I was waking from a weird and wonderful dream. I - X X THE QUEST OF THE PERFECT RELIGION. 33 -Ladies and Gentlemen of the Graduating Classes: You came to-day for counsel, for words of wisdom 5 you l1ave received only a dream. Be not angry. It is not all a dream. To such as you its interpretation will not be diflicult. ' The great world of civilization into which you are just going forth is an assembly hall vaster than that Meiji Kuaido which stands in distant.Tokio. lVithin it are assembled in earnest conference the elect spirits of every nation. About its doors hang millions of our humanity, conscious of their own lack of light and truth, awaiting tl1e discoveries of their better qualified representatives. Within, the highest, the never-'ceasing debate relates to human perfection and to tl1e means for its attainment. The ever eloquent debaters dwell now upon one phase or force, and now upon another,--but the theme is ever the same, ever the perfection of human beings and the way to this perfection. Some are seeking a perfect industrial adjustment, others a per- fect education, others a perfect government, others a perfect social order, others--that they may combine and unify all- are in quest of a perfect religion. To-morrow, dear friends, you are to receive your appointment as delegates to this W'orld Convention. Therein some of you will be called upon to speak, all of you will be called upo11 to vote, in tl1e presence of a hun- dred nations. Whether you yet realize it or not, you are to- morrow going forth to speak and to vote for or against the Perfect Religion. The lVorld Convention will insist on know- ing what you can tell it respecting its supreme problem. And you will have to meet the demand in a publicity as wide as the world. The days of personal and national isolation are forever gone. Under the same roof with our vanishing American abo- rigines, within ear-shot of the moans of Africa, in full view of the cruel idolatries of Hindustan, in full knowledge of the hungry-souled millions of China, in the face of Enrope's self- sophisticated and gloomy and scofling agnosticism--in the hush of an Almighty Presence Jyou, each one of you, are going to tell the world what you know respecting human perfection and the road to its attainment. In doing it, -whether you will or no- you will have to pronounce for or against the Perfect Religion. For or against. Which it will be I have little doubt. To 34 Bosrozv UNIVERSITY YEAR 120015. yourselves you have long ago admitted, that there can be but one' absolutely true and perfect religion. ,To yourselves you surely have admitted, that the perfect religion must present a pe1'feet object of worship, that it must demand 'of man his highest devotion, and must promise to man his highest good. Long ago you must have admitted that the highest possible love should rule both worshipper and worshipped, and that this highest pos- sible love necessitates closest possible union in some form of' life, human and divine. I but utter your inmost conviction when I add, that a religion consisting of supreme and mutual love between a perfect divine object and a perf'ectly responsive human subject can need no other credential than that which is given in its own uplifting and life-giving presence. ' To-day those f'or whom I speak - and I speak for none more than for myself - are glad. NVe rejoice that as you join our grow- ing Convocation and take your several stations in the world's wide field, you hold in your hands -I hope in your hearts also -tl1e one solution to all earth's problems. To you it has been given to know of the divine origin, the divine possibilities, the divine destination of this living mystery in human f'orm. You know the patl1 ,of deliverance from evil, and who it is that opened it. You possess ideals ofhuman perfection f'airer, higher, broader than any of which ethnic sages have ever dreamed. You know of a life which even in its earthly stages is full of' righteousness and peace, of love and good fruits. Publish it to the weary world. Exemplify it in church, and court, and hospital, in school- house and in home. Count it the prima ph-ilosophia, the high- est of all sciences, the finest of all fine arts. Let it be the one knowledge in which you glory, the one knowledge by which you seek to bring yourselves and all selves unto glory everlasting. Apostles of human perfection, apostles of' the perfect religion, why should you notuenlighten, why should you not emaueipate the most distant continents? One sage of Asia, wise witha lesser wis- dom, enlightened with a lesser light, has given ideals toinillious. Ye are sages 4 more than a hundred strong. This day I 'commis- sion you, I charge you, --in Christ's name I command you: Be ye in truth, as He himself has styled you, the light of the world. And now .unto the perf'eet Teacher of' this perfect Way be honor, and glory, and dominion, world without end. Amen. , 1 ! NEW FOUNDATIONS. TVITIIIN the past year, at an expense of about one hundred and fiftythousaud dollars, a commodious new Hall for the School of Theology has been opened. Important improvements have also been made in connection with the College of'Music and College of Agriculture. Further additions to the funds and appliances of the University are much needed. Thoroughly to equip the institution upon the plan and scale proposed, resources several times greater than any now possessed or promised will be abso- lutely necessary. No department is as yet, by any IUQEEUS, adequately endowed. The Trustees cannot doubt that public- spirited men and women will gladly aid in .creating the needed facilities. The spirit of co-operation already manifested not only by the citizens of Boston, but also by friends of the institu- tion throughout New England, and from beyond the boundaries of New England, is an assurance that the highest hopes of the founders of the 'University are in time to be surpassed,'and far surpassed, by the reality. But while no apprehensious can be felt about the remoter future, and while individuals are now giv- ing with a generosity worthy of all praise, it should be remem- bered, that with institutions, as -with men, youth is a period of opportunities inestimably precious, that many of these, if not improved at the time, are forever lost. The opportunities open- ing before this youthful University are unparalleled, but, with- out early and continual additions to its pecuniary resources, some exceedingly important ones will have to pass unused. The following is an extract from the General Statutes of the University : -- ' - NEW FoUNnA'r1oNs. -I. Any person giving or bequeathing to Boston University a sum not less than one hundred thousand dollars for the purpose of establishing a new department, or for the general purposes 36 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. of the institution, shall receive the title of Associate Founder of Boston University, and be published as such before the list of Trustees in the Year Book of the University.

Any person or persons giving or bequeathing to the Univer- sity a sum not less than forty thousand dollars, for the purpose of estab- lishing a Professorship in any department, shall have the privilege of giving name to such Professorship. In like manner a gift or bequest of not less than twenty-five thousand dollars for the purpose of founding an Adjunct Professorship shall entitle the giver to the same privilege. IHIV.

Candidates who divide the examinations will present at the preliminary one a certificate from a former teacher, stating the subjects in which the applicant is prepared for examination, and, at the final one, the testimonials of good moral character. The studies in which regular candidates f'or the Freshman Class are examined are the following : - LATIN. - 1.

All thclbooks named for a given year are to be read by each candidate. ' An important feature of the above requisitions is, that in the examinations in tlIe languages the whole stress is laid, not upon the quantity which the student may have read, but upon his actual ability to handle the language correctly. To prepare for these examinations, the pupil should be accustomed, from the beginning of the preparatory course, to translate into Latin and Greek, both orally and in wI'iting, passages prepared bythe teacher, on the basis of the prose authors read. Satisfactory certificates from the principals of high schools and academics of good standing will exempt the candidate from examination in arithmetic, physics, ane ent history, and geography. , DIVISION or 'run ExAziIINATIoNs. A Candidates for admission ma.y pass the entrance examina- tions at one time, or, if they prefer, may divide them, it being required, however, that, if the work be divided, at least one- half must be taken at tlIe time of the if preliminary examina- tion. Moreover, candidates for admission to the preliminary examination must produce certificates from their teachers attest- ing their fitness in given subjects, and no candidate will be examined in subjects not included in the certificate of the teacher. The examinations arc mainly in writing, and deficiencicsiin the legibility, spelling, or grammar of thc students' papers, affect the result of the examination. Specimens of recent examination-papers will be sent on application. An ability to recite one oration of Cicero 'memoriter will be taken as an equivalent for three orations read. If the student prefer, a proportionate allowance for memorizing will be 'made in Vcrgil. ' I COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS. 53 Instructors preparing students in Latin and Greek are re- quested to follow the Continental pronunciation of vowels, to give the Latin c and g the sound of Greek K and y, i consonant the sound of y in yes, and to insist on the observance of the Greek accents and the quantity of the Latin vowels.

This College is designed for students who are prepared to enter upon advanced courses of study in the various depart- ments of music. It is the only institution of its grade and kind in America. The advantages accruing to it from its location in Boston, and from its intimate association with the University, are very great. Fewa persons devoting themselves to this profession are able to complete a liberal education before beginning their spe- cial musical training. Nor, indeed, ought they to do it. The best years for acquiring scholastic culture are also the best years for cultivating the voice, the ear, and, the hand. A gen- erous intellectual and aesthetic culture is needed by every pro- fessional musiciang but it is best acquired, not before or after, but in connection with, his special studies. The lack of oppor- tunities for such acquisition has been the chief defect 'of some of the most famousmusic-schools of the world. Had every great national conservatory always presented the collateral advantages for general culture which are here presented, the character of the entire profession would have been favorably affected. . The inducements which invite persons of musical talent to 'dt themselves for some branch of the musical profession, par- Q 66 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. ticularlyfor teaching, were never so great in this country as now. The demand for teachers of character and scholastic tastes as well as musical skill is far in excess of the supply. Excellent situations await all who can add to natural gifts the needful fruits of training. The marked and steady growth of musical taste throughout the country, the consequent introduc- tion of musical instruction into public schools, the increasing demands of the multiplying churches, the introduction of new forms and occasions of popular musical entertainment, all give assurance that the call for teachers of the highest qualifications is one which is sure to be permanent, and probably also, increas- ingly urgent. ' ADMISSION. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Music, not already possessed of a literary degree, must give on entrance, satisfac- tory evidence by acceptable certificate, or by examination, that they have been well instructed in flj English Grammar, Rheto- ric, and English Compositiong Q2j English Literature, and its History, Q35 Outlines of Ancient and Modern History, the His- tory of England, and of the United Statesg My Arithmetic, Algebra to quadratics, and Elementary Geometry 5 Q5j Physics, and three of the following sciences: Geography, Geology, Botany, Human Physiology, Chemistry, and Astronomyg C6j Sight-reading of easy Latin proseg C71 Sight-reading of easy French, German, or Italian prose 5 Q85 Mental Philosophy g and Q95 Moral Science.

' n The special qualifications required of those who wish to give attention to the violin, flute, or other orchestral instruments, are a familiarity with the technicalities of the instruments, and an ability to play the easier works of the masters. Persons desiring information as to the best and most econom- ical method of fitting themselves for the College are invited to correspond with the Dean. COURSES OF INSTRUCTION. Regular courses of instruction are arranged for the following departments : - ' I. Voxcs. II. Piano. III. ORGAN. IV. VIOLIN AND orusn Oacuusraan INSTRUMENTS. V. COUNTERPOINT CoMPosmoN AND Oacnssriwrxon. All of these courses include the study of Theory and the History and Esthetics of Music. The course for vocalists in- 68 , Bosrozv UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. I cludes, besides these, instruction in Italian, German, and French. Special courses can be arranged to suit the needs or tastes of students desiring less extended instruction than that of any regular course. Regular students are expected to attend all lectures and con- certs of the College, and to play or sing at such concerts when- ever appointed. . Instruction is given in lectures, small classes, and, when deemed best, in private lessons. , The standard works of the great masters, both ancient and modern, representing the various schools of musical art, and including concerted music of, all kinds, are constantly studiedg and the entire course of instruction is arranged with a view to secure the highest standard of taste, and an appreciation of the true relation of music to the other arts and sciences. SPECIAL' FACILITIES. ' Students entering the College at the commencement of the year can be admitted to classes in the College ot' Liberal Arts without extra charge. ' ' Frequent concerts, including piano and vocal solos, trios, quartets, etc., are given, in which the pupils are required to take partg and, in addition to this, an opportunity is afforded them to attend the lectures and sight-singing classes of the New England Conservatory of Music, and to perform at its weekly concerts. p The opportunities for culture outside of the institution in Boston are so well known, that it is hardly necessary to enu- merate them. During the concert season,. miscellaneous con- certs by foreign and resident artists 5 chamber, symphony, and oratorio concerts, are of almost daily occurrence, and the Ger- man, Italian, and English opera-troupes usually spend several weeks in the city, giving presentations of standard works. To some of these the students are admitted without charge. The general literary and educational advantages of the city are of course unsurpassed. The Boston Public Library and the Library of the New Eng- . 'COLLEGE OF MUSIC. 69 land Conservatory of Music furnish a collection of ten thousand volumes relating to music, to which students have free access. A Course of Reading has been prepared for the students, under the supervision of several leading musicians and artists, and all are encouraged to devote at least one hourper day to this essential element in every curriculum of study. It compre- hends the latest and best works upon the subject, and its mas- tery will conduce very largely to thatygeneral intelligence which is so imperatively demanded of every aspiring musician. CHARGES. Piano, organ, or voice, including composition and lectures, in class of four, 3200 per year, in class of three, 32503 in class of two, 3350.

The regular course includes every branch of ordinary farming and gardening, and is both theoreti- cal and practical. Each topic is thoroughly discussed in the lecture-room, and again in the plant-house or field, where every student is obliged to work. The amount ot' required work, how- ever, is limited, in order that it may not interfere with study.

So far as is consist- ent with circumstances, students will be permitted to select' such varieties of labor as they' may, ibr special reasons, desire to engage in. The Trustees have voted to establish one free scholarship for each ot' the eleven congressional' districts of the State, the appointments to which will be made by the representatives from the several districts. Eighty other free scholarships were established by the State Legislature in 1883, and any person desiring admission to the College can apply for one of these scholarships to the senator of his district. . l I CALENDAR FOR 1887-88.

THE SCHOOL OF- THEOLOGY. 1 89 This School was projected in a Convention held in Boston in the spring of the year 1839. It was opened at Concord, N.H., in,1847. Twenty years later it was removed to Boston, where from 1867 till 1871 its legal name was H The Boston Theologi- cal Seminary. In the latter year it was incorporated into the University, and became its first department. INSTRUCTION. With respect to methods ol' instruction, it is thc aim oi' the Faculty to secure the greatest possible freshness and variety consistent with scientific system and thoroughness. Accord- ingly, while a fltitliful use oi' the best books ol' rei'erence in every branch is insisted on, the instruction is almost entirely oral. It is intended that the student shall do something more than merely memorize text-books. Whenever a branch of science, or a portion of a branch, can be best taught by a fresh original handling in the way of' written lectures, or by free exposition, or by blackboard exercise, or by a Socratic method, or by a combination of any or all of these, the professors will not shrink from the additional labor which such methods neces- sarily involve. 'In several branches, privately printed lectures are issued to the classes. REGULAR THREE-YEARS' COURSE. FIRST Yann.

A FOUR-YEARS' COURSE. W Candidates who for any cause satisfactory to the Faculty desire to take four years for the accomplishment of the regular undergraduate work of the School, or who with the approval of the Faculty desire to combine with that work such an amount of study in the College of Liberal Arts, or School of All Sciences, as would render a fourth year necessary, will be allowed to carry out their wishes without extra charge for tuition 5 also with free 1'oom the fourth year, provided there be vacancies in the rooms provided for students of theology. This extension of time may he of great advantage to those who lack the first grade of preparation, or who are necessitated by the cxigencies of self- support to preach during a large part of their course. Cau- didates laboring under both these disabilities are required to take the four years. MISSIONARY COURSE. Throughout a large part of the year there is a weekly Mis- sionary Lecture by a member of the Faculty. This has been the practice for fifteen years past. The course covers. as fully as practicable, all the more important points in the Theory, I-Iistory, and Practice of Christian Missions. As treated, the matter is equally important to future pastors and prospective missionaries. ' The Missionary Association ol' the School holds stated meet- ings to hear reports and original letters from former students and others in the various mission-fields, to pray for the increased success of missionary labor, to discuss questions connected with the mission-work, and, in general, to cultivate an intelligent personal interest in the great enterprise of evangelizing the world. During the past year it has been repeatedly addressed 'hy returned missionaries and others who have personally in- spected foreign missions. The New-England Conservatory of Music, the largest institu- tion ot' its kind in America, offers accredited candidates for foreign missionary service, instruction in music j7'ee of charge. This muniliccnt provision includes instruction in the art of teaching vocal music to children g a general knowledge of piano THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. 93 and reed-organ tuning and adjusting, such as will make it pos- sible for the candidate to meet the practical' demands of' isolated fields, a knowledge of the fundamental principles of' harmony, suliicient to enable him to arrange native music, and write the accompanying parts, opportunity to study church and chorus music, sight-singing, etc. As soon as this department can be suitably endowed, it. is proposed to enlarge the missionary instruction to a full three- years' course substantially as below. To its early establish- ment, friends of' missions are invited to contribute by providing the necessary funds. nnsr Yana.

There are annually added to it some 10,000 hound volumes and 7,000 to 10,000 pamphlets. , The General Theological Library. -This large and valuable collection has been removed to a new and commodious location in immediate proximity to the School. For an annual tee of two dollars, it is open to theological students. Connected with it is a fine theological and religious reading-room., All denomi- nations are represented both in the library and in the reading- room periodicals. - Other Reading-Rooms. - Members ot' the School enjoy, fur- ther, the free use of the following reading-rooms: lst, That of the School, well supplied with the issues of' the American re- ligious press.

N THE scHooL OF THEOLOGY. 95 Emtempore Speaking and Debate.--Exercise in extempore speaking and debate may be had weekly in connection with debating societies, etc. Opportunities for more directlyiminis- terial labor in supplying vacant pulpits, and the calls of the city missions, are constantly occurring. Gymnastics.-The spacious Boston Common, with its his- toric trees, walks, and monuments, adjacent to which is the famous Public Garden, is distant but a single city block from the Hall, and aii'ords an almost ideal campus for the purposes of' open-air exerciseg while the stately residence streets oi' the Back Bay, not to mention those of the business quarter oi' the city, offer in pleasant weather ever varying and profitable excur- sions on foot. For indoor exercise the advantages of a com- plete gymnasium in the Hall building, provided at large expense with the best modern appliancesyare enjoyed by the student, free of' all fees and expenses. Lectures on topics of' health, exercise, diet, etc., have often been given to the School, by recognized authorities in medical and hygienic science. Pastoral Conferences, denominational or interdenominational, are held every Monday forenoon in Wcsleyan'1-Iall, and at an hour at which all can attend. The .Monday Lectureshzp. --All of Mr. Joseph Cook's Mon- day Lectures have been delivered within a few minutes' walk of the School, and at an hour when the students were at liberty to be present. The Lowell Institute. -- Among the lecture-courses presented annually by this institution, many are of great service to theo- logical students. All are free. ' Other Public Lectures. -The attractions of a Boston lecture- season are well known. In the course of three years the student easily finds opportunity to listen to nearly every distinguished American scholar, statesman, and orator, besides many noted visitors from other countries. Conversazioni. -The most prominent and successful clergy- men and orators ot' Boston and vicinity have repeatedly favored the students with familiar addresses and conversations on their personal experience, habits, etc., as public religious teachers. or late years these addresses have occurred about B once a. month. i 96 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. .Missionary Meetings, Christian C'onventions,' Benevolent So- ciety Anniversaries, etc., are held every year in this city, draw- ing together returned missionaries, distinguished pulpit-orators, and live Christian laborers from every quarter of the globe. These are advantages whose value to young ministers cannot well be over-estimated. ' Religious .Pri'vileges.--Regular morning and evening devo- tions are held throughout the scholastic year. There are also stated prayer-meetings every week, and a social meeting led by the professors in rotation. . ' All of the principal churches of Boston are within convenient walking distance of the School, and each student is expected to connect himself with one of them. In the Sunday schools, missions, and social meetings of these churches, abundant opportunities for Christian labor are foundg while, on thc other hand, the stated preaching and spiritual counsels of an experi- enced pastor can but prove fruitful of blessing to every candi- date for the high responsibilities of the ministry. THE NEW HALL. The new Hall of the School is situated on Beacon I-Iill, a few rods west of the State House. Its main entrance is at No. 72 Mount Vernon Street, but all trunks and other luggage must be delivered in the rear, at No. 27 Chestnut Street. Candidates coming for the jirst time are recommended to give their baggage- checks and orders for No. 27 Chestnut. Street, to the express agent who passes through the train bef'ore its arrivalg then at the station to hire a herdie cab ffare twenty-Hve centsj, and proceed to No. 72 Mount Vernon Street. To avoid confusion, both addresses should be carefully noted befqre starting. 1 ADMISSION.

Those applying for free rooms and accommodation in the Boarding Club, under the provisions below stated, will present, instead of these, the license or special recommendation there required. THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. r 97 Candidates for admission to the First Division of an entering class must have completed a satisfactory course in arts, and received the degree of Bachelor of Arts. For admission to the Second Division, candidates who have not been admitted to the Degree of Bachelor of Philosophy or Bachelor of Science, or to an equivalent degree upon a course of study including the Greek language, must pass a written examination in the studies required for admission .lo the Freshman Class in the College of Liberal Arts, -with the exception of the French Qsee pp. 50, 51, University Year Bookj, -- and must show, that, by reason of age or other circumstances, they cannot wisely attempt to qualify themselves for admission to the First Division. All persons desiring to enter the School by examination, 'ntust joresent themselves at the Hall, No. 72 Mount Vernon Street, on Wednesday, Sept. 21, at nine o'clock A.M. Those entitled to apply for rooms will secure some advantages in choice, by arranging beforehand for a room-mate, and making application as early as practicable. No room will be reserved after the first day, except by special agreement. All students whose circumstances will allow them to obtain a complete classical education before applying for admission, are earnestly recommended to do so. The highest interests of the student, of tl1e School, and of the churches, demand it. Applicants for admission to advanced standing must sustain a satisfactory examination in all the studies which the class have passed ove1', or present a certificate of honorable dismissal from some other theological institution in which the same or equiva- lent branches have been satisfactorily pursued. Young men or women who may be providentially debarred the privilege of pursuing the regular course in either division, are allowed to take a special one of one or more years, according to their circumstances. In like manner, preachers engaged in the active work ofthe minist1'y, superintendents 01' teachers of Sunday schools,--in fine, any persons deemed suitable by the Faculty, -- are allowed to attend upon the exercises of the Scl1oo1 by causing their names to be recorded in the Register, and pre- paying the appropriate fees as.special students. 98 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR Boozc. K FREE TUITION, FREE ROOMS, ETC. By virtue ot' the arrangement in accordance with which the Trustees of the Boston Theological Seminrxry transferred their funds and trusts to the University, all candidates for the minis- try of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in the 1'cgular course, are given free tuition year by year, and the same or equiva- lent privileges with respect to rooms as were afforded by the Seminary. I All applicants for these free advantages are required to pro- duce either a local preacher's license, or a recommendation from some Quarterly Conference, after the followinglform : We, tl1c members of' the Quarterly Conference of' -- Station Qor Cir- cuitj, do hereby eertilly that -1 is, in our judgment, called of God to the work of the ministry 3 and we cordially recommend him as a suitable person to be received as a student in the School of Theology ot' Boston University. A ' The rooms provided for these students rent-free are ot' good size, well lighted, warmed by steam, and furnished with every thing essential to comfort, with the exception of bed-linen, towels, and rugs. .For apartments of the same description, the hotels charge from one to two or three dollars a day. Special students are allowed to fill such vacancies as remain after the regular students have been accommodated. ' All students entitled as above to free tuition and 1'ooms are also admitted to the privileges of the Boarding Club. Favored with rent-free premises, and with direct access to the great markets, of Boston, this club has been able to provide varied and excellent board for about threo.dollars a week. This re- duces tl1e expense of board' for the entire scholastic year to little more than one lmndred dollars. A For the present the University is able to follow the 'example of the Seminary, and extend these free advantages to the can- didates of all Methodist churches without distinetionf As fast as the necessary funds are furnished, the samefor equivalent facilities will be offered to all. .

A large number of' students entirely support themselves by supplying vacant pastoral charges in the vicinity 3 but all such arrangements must be made with the proper ecclesiastical au- thorities. In no case can the Faculty definitely promise oppor- tunities of' this kind to a candidate in advance of his coming. Few, however, who have the needful experience for such labor, find ditliculty in obtaining places, after becoming acquainted in the city and its suburbs. . GRADUATION, PRIVILEGES OF GRADUATES, ETC. All students who complete the regular course, and pass the required examinations, and present satisfactory theses, are honorably graduated, and promoted to membership in the Uni- versity Convocation with all thc powers and privileges of such membership. Those who have taken their first degree in arts upon a satisfactory arts course, are eligible to the degree ol' Bachelor of' Sacred Theology. The aggregate of' all graduates of' the School from its begin- ning in Concord constitutes 'f The Alpha Chapter of' the Con- vocation. It is organized for annual, monthly, and other meetings. It annually elects one of' the Vice-Presidents of' the Convocation, and participates in all of' the business of' that body. As a constituent portion of the Convocation, 'it is at the present time represented in the Board of' Trustees by one of' its own members. Under special statutes the Chapter maintains in Boston dur- ing a large part of' the year monthly meetings for papers and criticisms by its own members, also meetings f'or lectures by professors and others, for instruction in advanced Hebrew, etc. For the benefit of' its members it prints its transactions, and a selection from the theses presented from month to month. Members residing in any part of the world can submit their papers through the Secretary of' the monthly meeting it' unable to attend in person. I THE scH00L OF THEOLOGY. 101 OFFICIAL VISITORS.

All persons proposing to study law as a profession are ear- nestly recommended tocomplete a course of liberal studies in some college before entering this School. Applicants who have taken their first degree in Arts, Science. or Philosophy, are admitted without preliminary examination: all others must satisfy the Dean, personally or by letter, that they possess sufficient educational and other qualifications to enable them to pursue with profit the studies of the School. Generally the diploma or certificate of the honorable completion of an Academical or High School course will be deemed suffi- cient for admission to the Junior Class. Students from other Law Schools 'are admitted to this on producing satisfactory testimonials as to the work done, and character sustained, in such schools. W Persons wishing a knowledge of legal principles for business purposes, but not intending to apply. for a degree, may be l 108 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. admitted at any time without examination, and avail themselves of such advantages of the School as they may deem expedient. Satisfactory testimonials or references are required of all, and those desiring to enter for advanced standing must pro- duce satisfactory certificates of their previous study. Those just commencing the study of' the law can be admitted with advantage only at or near the commencement of the Octo- ber term. Others are admitted at any timeg but it is confi- dently recommended to all to commence their legal studies in some law school, rather than in an office. Each candidate must sign a printed application furnished for the purpose, and correctly answer the questions contained therein, and he must adjust all dues at the Registrar's oflice, be regularly enrolled, and receive a. Registration Ticket, before admission to the instruction of the School. INSTRUCTION . - UNDERGRADUATE COURSE. Most of the instructors in this School are regularly engaged in the practical administration of the law, either upon tl1e bench or at the bar. The course of instruction aims to combine the advantages of all approved systems and appliances. It includes the regular oral text-book exposition and recitation, free and written lec- tures, reviews, examinations, exercises in draughting contracts, couveyances, pleadings, indictments, and other legal papers, the criticism of briefs and arguments in moot courts, courses of reading, etc. . Although the aim of all the instruction is to teach a knowl- edge of principles, rather than of mere cases, yet special at- tention is given to fixing in the mind ofsthe student the leading decisions on important subjects,-those 'which have become great landmarks in the law,-as, Coggs 'v. Bernard, Lickbar- row v. Mason, Pasley 'v. Freeman, Dartmouth College 'v. Wood- ward. etc.g and the student will be frequently called upon to state the facts and results of such cases before the School, and in the examination-papers. It is also sought so to combine the teaching of the theoretical principles and doctrines of the law, with their practical application to actual cases as they arise in I THE SCHOOL OF LA W. 109 the present business affairs ot' the community, as to fit the stu- dent, in a measure, to act upon a given ease, and know what if to do under tlieactual circumstances presented to him. Some moot question will be frequently given out, founded on some current event of the day, on which some member of' the School is appointed to read a paper, not over ten minutes in length, before the full School, and to discuss the principles involved, and the authorities bearing on the same. A daily recitation and examination is held in the leading branches of the course. The Junior and Middle Classes must attend the Lectures on all Required Topics for those years respectively, keep note- books of' the Lectures, and attend a daily recitation with the use of text-books. Any student is liable to be called upon, at any lecture, to read before the School his notes ol' the previous lecture, subject to the criticism of his fellow-students. These books must be handed in for examination, and must be satisfac- tory iu order to obtain a degree. Each student must prepare an Analytical Chart, or Synopsis of the Leetures,'on any sub- ject or subjects, whenever so required by the Dean: the most satisfactory of which will be permanently suspended on the walls of' the library or other rooms. Examinations in at least ten subjects will be held at the close of the school-year, and each regular student will be required to pass the examination given in the studies oi' his yearg if the result of the examina- tion upon any subject is not satisfactory, the student will be required to submit to another examination in such subject at the opening of' the following school-year. Each student must pass the examination of the Junior Class before he can be en- rolled in the Middle Classg and likewise pass those of the Middle Class before being enrolled as a Senior. Members ot' the Middle Class, who have attended the year previous, may re- attend any of the lectures of the first year without charge,-but are not entitled to attend those ot' the third year. Subject to slight variations from year to yea.r, the distribu- tion of' topics will be as follows : -- 110 BOSTON UNIVERSITY 'YEAR Booze. rmsfr YEAR.

Instruction will be given every year in all of tl1e required subjects and in a majority of the electives. Students who cannot attend the School more than two years may attend the first and second years, spend the third year in an ofiice, and then take their final examinations, and, if suc- cessful, may graduate as if they had attended three full years in the School. ' The courses of instruction in Political Economy, the Consti- tution of the United States, Roman Law, and International Law, in the College ot' Liberal Arts, will also be open to stu- dents in the Law School without charge. In' all cases, however, application must first be made to the Dean of the College. 1 Generally pursued in the Full Tormg tho others, mostly ln the Spring Term. v THE scHO0L OF LA W. r 111 TEXT-BOOKS . A few copies of the leading text-booksare kept in the library, for general useg but students are recommended to. purchase their own books for daily use. They will find them of great assistance hereafter in their practice, and free marginal anno- tation will much increase their value. An intimate familiarity with one good text-book on each subject will be of more service than a vague acquaintance with several. The following text-books are used for the Junior Class: viz., Metcalf and Smith on Contractsg Bigelow on Tortsg Benjamin on Sales 5 May and McClain on Criminal Law. The members of this class are also advised to read collater- ally: 1 Blackstone's Commentaries, ch. i. 5 1 Kent's Commen- taries, part iii. g Cooley on Tortsg Chitty on Contraetsg Story on Salesg WValker's Introduction, lect. 1 g Warren's Law Studies QAm. ed.j g Bishop's First Book of the Lawg Hallanfs and May's Constitutional History of England 3 Maine's Ancient Lawg Reeves's I-Iistory of the Common Law, Stephen's His- tory of Criminal Lawg Wharton on Contracts. The text-books used for the Middle Class are: Williams and Tiedeman on Real Propertyg Schouler on Bailments: Byles or Chalmers on Billsg Bigelow's Leading Cases on Bills and Notesg Story on Agency and Partnershipg Schouler on Domes- tic Relations. This class is recommended to read the following in connec- tion with the above: namely, Washburn on Real Property: Lindley on Partnershipg Wharton on Agencyg Story on Bail- IDSHUSQ Sullivan's Lecturesg Indermaur's Principles of the Common Lawg Walker's Introduction to American Law. The text-books used for the Senior Class are: Wharton's Conflict of Lawsg Morawetz on Corporationsg Bispham on Equityg Greenleaf's Evidence, vol. i.g Stephen and Gould on Pleadingg Stephen's Digest of Evidence CChase's ed.j 3 Story's Equity Pleadings 3 Curtis's Patent Law 3 ,Bigelow on Equity. They are 1'ecommended to read : Kent's Commentaries, vol. i. g Hurlbut on Human -Rightsg Yeamen on Governmentg Mul- ford's Nation, Lieber on Civil Libertyg Lieber's Legal Her- 112 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. meneuticsg Austin's Jurisprudenceg Burlamaqui on Natural and Politic Lawg Stubbs's Constitutional Law ot' Englandg Cooley on Constitutional Lawg Dillon on Municipal Corpora- tionsg Starkie's Evidence, vol. i.g Sharswood's Legal Ethicsg Washburn's Law Studiesg Best on Evidenceg Story's Equity Jurisprudence. , BUSINESS COURSE. Young men of' business, not intending to practise law as a prof'ession, may also attend the Lectures on Constitutional Law, such as Agency, Bills and Notes, Contracts, Insurance, Part- nership, Sales, etc., at the same rates as for other Special Stu- dents, noted on pp. 117, 118. COURTS , ETC. The Law Department is located in the Law School Building, No. 10 Ashburton Place, near the State I-Iouse, City Hall, Court House, and Post-Ofllce. Attendants upon the School enjoy unusual facilities for ob- serving the organization and working of' courts, the actual progress of notable cases, the arguments of' eminent counsel, the rulings of judges, the processes of' decision, exception, appeal, etc. No less than six courts are holding their sessions almost continuously, within a few minutes' walk from tl1e School. At the State House, the State LegisZature- or H Great and General Court -is usually in session from the first week in January till near the close ofthe Academic year. Here are afforded opportunities f'or'obscrving the whole process by which are propounded, considered, amended, and enacted the statutes which the tribunals of' law are to interpret and apply. LIBRARIES AND READING-ROOMS. The following collections areaccessible to all members of the School: flj The Law Library of the University. This is situated in the same building with the School, and consists of several thousand volumes, including the most important Law Reports, English and American, and the most approved text- books. Several hundred volumes have been added during the past year, and the effort will be to make and keep it, by yearly THE scHooL OF LA W. 113 additions, a model working library for students. It is open for the purpose of study, to all students who desire, from 8.30 A.M. to 6 IRM., and from 7 1-.M. to 10 r.M.g but no books can be taken from the library without special permission of the Dean. Q21 The State Library. This valuable collection, amount- ing to over 30,000 volumes, is substantially a, general Law Library, but is especially rich in codes, statutes, state papers, and all that pertains to legislation, American and foreign. Taken in connection with the long-accumulating archives ot' the State, it affords a rare mine to all engaged in special historical or local studies oi' American law. Q35 The Public Library of the City of Boston. This is the largest library in America. The collection numbers 400,000 volumes and 100,000 pamphlets. It is particularly rich in state papers, its collection of United-States documents being more com- plete than any in possession of the 'government itself. Any book not in possession of tl1e Library will, on application ot' a reader, be purchased, provided it is obtainable, and no valid reason against its purchase appears. By special permission of the trustees, students in the Law School of Boston University are entitled to use and draw books, although residing out of the city. In order to enjoy this privilege, students not resid- ing in Boston must first obtain a NON-RlCSIlJliNT,S card at the Library, and procure the same to be countersigned by the Dean of the Law School. , The Reading-Room ofthe Public Library is open without charge. All the leading professional, scientiiie, and literary periodicals of America and Europe are here taken. The selec- tion numbers between four and five hundred. Q45 Students who are members of the bar can enjoy the use of the Social Law Library, in the Court House at Court Square, containing over 20,000 volumes, for ten dollars a year, and any member ofthe School, studying in the oflice of any member of the Association, may visit this library without charge. Other general and special collections are accessible upon the payment ot' a small annual fee. 114 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR Boolc. s Moor ooURTs, CLUBS, Ere. For the purpose of familiarizing the students with the prac- tice of the law, a regular court has been established, called the H Court of the University, in which suits are commenced and conducted through all their stages to a final hearing, and decis- ions on questions of law, carried up by exceptions, appeal, report, writ ot' error, etc. It has a clerk, seal, docket, crier, shcrid, reporter, etc. The Moot Court, held every week, is presided over by some member of the Faculty. Two members of the School sit as associate justices, who prepare written opinions, which are bound with the case and briefs, and preserved in the Law Li- brary. The most important cases are printed and bound under the title ot' Boston University Reports, vol. i. of which is now published. Every candidate for a degree must have taken part, either as counsel or judge, in at least two moot-court cases, for the year of his graduation, unless specially excused. There are several Law Clubs among the students, in which legal questions are argued and discussed. GRADUATION. ' Candidates for graduation must make written application to the Dean of the Faculty, on or before the first day of February, on blanks furnished by the Dean for that purpose, and adjust all dues at the Registrar's office. An examination-fee of ten dollars must be enclosed with the application. No examina- tion of any student will be commenced until such application is filed 3 but any student failing to pass the required examination in any year may present himself for examination at a subse- quent year without charge. Every candidate must also present to the Dean, on or before March 1, a thesis on some legal topic selected by himself' and approved by the Dean, ot' not less than ten or more than twenty pages, to be written on paper obtained of the librarian, with a ruled inner and outer margin of suit- able width for binding. These essays are annually bound, and placed in the Law Library. In order to graduate, the student must have attained twenty-one years of age, and pursued the study of the law, unless in exceptional cases, three full years, THE SCHOOL OF LA W. 115 one of which at least must have been in this Law Schoolg and if only one year in this School, a written certificate of two years' study elsewhere will be requiredg but those who have been ad- mitted to the bar of their own State, one year prior to their admission to this School, may be graduated after one year here, without full three years' study, if all other conditions are com- plied with. . Students who have been members of this School two entire school years, and attain sufficiently high rank, may obtain a degree at the close of the second year. l:As a rule, only students who are not less than twenty-three years of age, and are also college graduates, can avail themselves of this exception to the general rule, which requires three years' studyj The applicant must furthermore, pass examinations in at least the following subjects: viz., Agency for Bailmentsj, Bills and Notes, Contracts, Criminal Law, Equity, Evidence, Pleading, Real Property, Sales, Torts. The examinations of the Junior Class in the studies of that year, if satisfactory, will be ac- cepted in those branches as sufficient for graduationg and the same rule will apply to the examinations of the Middle Class. But students who have not passed such preliminary examina- tions satisfaetorily will be examined in the studies of the entire course. Each examination-paper contains at least ten ques- tions. Ten perfect' answers count one hundredg and, in order to pass a satisfactory examination, an average of sixty-six and two-thirds at least is necessary in the whole examination, and sixty at least in each topicg and the Faculty reserve the right to reject the lowest five at any examination, whatever their marks. Every applicant must abide the result of the jirst exam- ination, as no appeal and no second trial can be granted in any case. All such candidates successfully passing the examina- tions, and paying all dues to the University, and whose conduct and scholarship are otherwise satisfactory, will, if personally present at commencement, receive the degree of Bachelor of Laws. Candidates who, in their final examinations, attain eighty-five per cent, will bc enrolled in the Honor Listg and this distinction will be noted in the diploma by the words H Gam Laude. Au average of ninety per cent entitles a student to a 116 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Mzgna Cam. Laude. Ninety-five per cent, to a 'C Summa Cam Laude. The requisites for the degree of LL.B. are, - lst, A f'aithful study ot' the law for at least three years. 2d, Satisfactory note-books ot' all the required studies of' the course. 3d, A participation as counsel or judge in the required num- ber of' moot courts. 4th, A satisfactory thesis on some specific branch ofthe law, selected by the student. 5th, A written synopsis or analysis of' some leading topic, if' required by the Dean. - 6th, An average of sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in all the studies of the examination, and at least sixty per cent in every study. I Students not desiring to graduate, or receive a degree, can attend the lectures of any one year, without examination, for the first year's tuition-fee, namely, S5125 5 or' the lectures of' any two years' course in one year, for S5200.. ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT. ln the public exercises of the Annual Commencement of' the University, the graduating class ot' tl1e Law School is repre- sented by two speakers appointed by the University Council. One of these is nominated by the class, the other, with more particular reference to scholarship, by the Faculty of the School 5 and both must be confirmed by the University Council. Each must select a topic approved by the Dean, and on or before the 15th of May submit to him for examination the proposed thesis or oration, the same not to exceed six -minutes in delivery. This thesis will take the place ot' that required oi' all other students. ' FREE SCI-IOIQJARSHIPS. , A limited number of free scholarships have been established for the second and third years, to be awarded by the Law Fac- ulty to such applicants, at the close Qf their jirst year, as shall appear to be most meritorious and needy. .

The only other charges are one of 810 for eloeution Qwhich study is optionalj, and, on graduation, one of' 310 for examina- tion, the cost of the diploma, and commencement expenses. No fees paid or secured are returned on account of inability of the student to attendg but, it' a whole term is thus lost, a free ticket to the lectures of the corresponding term of the next year will be given. Any student leaving during the year must at the time notify the Registrar in writing: otherwise he will be charged the tuition-fee for the entire year. The expenses of a student for board, room, washing, etc., need not exceed 3200 to S300 per scholastic year. Good board is furnished to clubs at 83.50 per week, and rooms may be had for 83 a week, and upwards, for two persons. Many young men obtain situations in lawyers' offices, evening-schools, or are otherwise able to do something toward their own support. As thereare nearly two thousand attorneys in and about the city, the facilities for obtaining such situations are unusually good. l Students can board in the towns in the vicinity of Boston, and attend the lectures with convenience. To such, most ot' the railroads offer reduced rates, upon the certificate of the Dean or Registrar as to membership. THE SCHOOL OF LA W. 119 1 CALENDAR.

Thesls. INSTRUCTION. The length of the courses adopted renders it practicable to present a most thorough and comprehensive curriculum of study, - one sufficient to impart to the student a complete scientific as well as practical medical education. In eachpcourse the various branches are taught in a succession, which, after several years' trial, approves itself to the Faculty as natural and most pro- :notive of thoroughness. To each term and each year certain studies are assigned, in which the student is required to become proficient before entering upon more advanced studies. I 130 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. ' ros'r-GRADUATE conass. ' Physicians who have received the medical degree will be ad- mitted to the School, and allowed to attend such lectures as they choose, and will be entitled to receive acertificate of such at- tendance. In order to obtain the diploma of the School, they must, by examination, satisfy the Faculty that they have fulfilled all the requirements of the School for graduation. ' SPECIAL COURSES. Suitable persons may be admitted to such course or courses of instruction in the School as they may select, and their attend- ance may be certified to upon their tickets. Such special courses will not count as any part of the three or four years' courses. CHEMICAL LABORATORY. A new Chemical Laboratory has been arranged and fitted up in a thorough and convenient manner, so that every student can perform the necessary experiments and acquire the practice in manipulation essential to a knowledge of chemistry. CLIN ICAL' INSTRUCTION. Daily clinics are held in the College building in the Medical, Surgical, Gynsecological, and Dental Departments, and twice a week in diseases of the I-Ieart, Lungs, Throat, and Skin, and four times a week in diseases of the Eye and Ear, and of Chil- dren. In these, as in other departments, special efforts will be made to familiarize the students with the best methods of ex- amining paticnts, and to instruct them in all the details of diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. T Before graduation, all students will be required to furnish satis- factory written reports of at least twenty medical, five surgical, and three obstetric cases attended personally by them. They must also report in writing from each of the other clinical departments five cases seen by them, giving four of the lead- ing diagnostic symptoms, and four of the principal remedies applicable. V THE scHO0L OF MEDICINE. 131 Physicians are urgently requested to send to the College clinics during the lecture sessions such cases of general or special dis- ease as possess unusual interest or require particular skill and experience in their treatment. All operations and examinations before tl1e class will be gratuitous. ' THE MASSACHUSETTS HOMCEOPATI-IIC HOSPITAL. This commodious structure is in close proximity to the School, and in the arrangements ot' its wards, its ventilation, light, and heat, is unsurpassed by any hospital in the country. The stu- dents will have as free access to its wards as practicable, in order that they may become familiar with disease in its various forms, and clinical lectures and instruction will be given upon a variety of diseases. The hospital has been recently enlarged at a cost oi' nearly 15100,000. It has special facilities for the care and comfort of the patients, and has one of the finest operating theatres in the country. A large number of rare and instructive surgical operations are performed in the presence of the students, who are, in many cases, allowed to assist. WESTBOROUGH INSANE HOSPITAL. The establishment by the State of an Insane Hospital where the patients receive homoeopathic treatment will give increased -opportunities to the students of this School to obtain clinical instruction in insanity and mental diseases, - a branch of medi- -cine which is of increasing importance. It is in a' fine location, has the most modern hospital improvements, and provides for four hundred patients. THE CITY HOSPITAL. During the past year the clinics of this hospital have been opened to all the students of this School-women as well as men. The hospital is but a short distance from the School, and the lecture hours of the senior and middle classes are so ar- ranged, that, without loss of time, these students can be present at all important operations. The great extent of thc hospital, 132 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR Boox. Q and the large number of surgical cases, afford an opportunity of witnessing nearly every variety of surgical operation. TI-IE IAIOMGEOPATIIIC MEDICAL DISPENSARY. This institution has three different locations in the city. These are accessible to the students, and, from the large num- ber of patients who resort to this charity daily, there is an excellent opportunity for the practical study of acute and chronic diseases. From fifteen to seventeen thousand cases are annually treated, and from thirty-five to forty thousand pre- scriptions and domiciliary visits made. Students in the senior year are allowed to visit patients at their homes, and prescribe under the direction and with the aid of the professors. In addition to the above, there are public and private hospi- tals which students can obtain permission to visit, and thus familiarize themselves with the various methods of treatment.

Arrangements have been made with Otis Clapp 8: Son to furnish to students all the text-books used in the School at the lowest net cash prices. I EXAMINATIONS. The first part of the lecture is often devoted to a brief oral examination or 'resume of the principal subjects treated in the preceding lecture. In several chairs the assistant meets the class once or twice a week, and carefully reviews the subject of the preceding lectures, explaining any doubtful points. Quiz classes have been organized among the students for mutual im- provement, and they have proved serviceable in more thoroughly impressing the instruction upon the student's mind. At the end of each term an examination is held on the studies finished during the term. The student is requi1'ed to complete the studies of one year, before entering upon those of the next. Should he, however, fail in one, or at most, two studies, having passed the others creditably, he will be allowed till the end of the next term to complete his examination. The final examina- tions ofuthe senior year are held at stated times during the last term preceding Commencement. After theliinal examination in each chair, the student receives a card stating the percentage he has therein attained. N Fifty per cent will be 1'0qllll'CCl from 'each chair in order to passg but an average of seventy per cent from all the chairs will be required, in order to enable a student to graduate. LIBRARIES, READING-ROOMS, ETCL V The following are open to the student without charge : - 1. The Library Qf the School contains about twenty-five hun- dred volumes, comprising some of the most recent and valuable works in medicine and the collateral sciences, including text- books and works of reference, of which a printed catalogue has been prepared. The Library is in the College building. It is opened regularly every Saturday, and occasionally at other times. 2. A New Reading-Room has been fitted up in the College building, and supplied with upwards of sixty of the leading I THE SCHOQL OF MEDICINE. 139 medical journals besides works of reference, to which the stu- dents have daily access. ' 3. The Public Library of the Oily of Boston. - No collection in 'America equals this, either in extent or valueg but one, the Congressional, is comparable with it. Even as to strictly medi- cal works, it is said to be ontrankcd by but two in the country,- one, that of the Surgeon-General in W'ashington 5 and the other, a special collection in Pennsylvania. Non-resident students will, on application to the Public Library, be furnished with a ticket, to be countersigned by the Dean, admitting them to its privileges. 4. The Reading-Room of the Public Library. More than four hundred periodicals, including leading medical journals 'QAmerican and Enropeanj, are here accessible. 5. A legacy left by the late Dr. Harriet K. Hunt, provides by its income medical-text-books for women students who need them. The trustees of this fund have placed its income' under the charge of thc Faculty of this School, and books are loaned to these students during the term-time. ' 6. The varied and valuable facilities for general culture Svhich Boston affords in its other libraries, its collections of natural history, its courses of scientific and literary lectures, its classical and popular concerts, and its art exhibitions, make an aggre- gate of general educational agencies whose value to the earnest and ambitious student can hardly be over-estimated. MUSEUM. ' ' Preparations in wax, illustrative of anatomical structures and pathological conditions, have been made expressly for this School. The collection of anatomical, pathological, and physio- logical-specimens is already quite large, and steadily increasing, while the histological and microscopical cabinet contains many rare and beautiful specimens. The friends of the School vvill subserve its interests by procuring and forwarding to the Mu- seum any suitable specimens. GRADUATION. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor 'of Medicineor Bachelor of Surgery must have studied medicine three full years, the last X 140 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. ot' which was in this School, and must have passed examinations in all the branches ot' the first three years ot' the four-years' course in this School with a minimum average of' eighty per cent. Candidates for the degree of Doctor ot' Medicine must be twenty-one years old and of good moral character. Such as have not pursued one of the prescribed courses of this School, and passed its regular examinations, must present evidence of having studied medicine during three years with competent instruction: of' having attended at least three full and reputable courses of lectures, the last in this School, and must pass an examination satisf'aetory to the Faculty. All can- didates must apply to the Dean of' the Facility on Wednesday, March 21, 1888, and, together with the graduation-f'ee and all tickets of' study and examinations, each one must then present an original autograph thesis of' at least twenty writtenpages upon some theme connected with the studies of the School. Upon the margin of the thesis shall be noted the authorities for all facts or opinions stated, whether derived from personal observation, from the teachings of' any member ot' the Faculty, or from any author, specifying in the latter ease the work and page. They must also be prepared publicly to defend before the Faculty the facts or opinions advanced in their theses. Any student satisfactorily completing a regular course in the School is at liberty to apply for examination to any regularly incorporated State Medical Society in the United States, and, on recommendation of' the authorized examiners of' such society, may receive from this University the degree of' Doctor of Medicine, with a diploma stating the name of the society on whose recom- mendation the degree is conferred.

GENERAL EXPENSES. Students can live as economically in Boston as in any city of its sizeg and personal expenses will be determined in a great measure by the tastes and inclinations ol' tl1e individual. The cost of board and room need not exceed from four to seven dollars per week. By the formation oi' clubs, the expense of board has been reduced to less than four dollars per week in some departments of the University. The lectures and other exercises of the School will be ar- ranged at convenient hours for students living in any of the neighboring cities or towns on the lines of the various railroads. Season tickets on several railroads can be obtainedlby stu- dents at reduced rates, the reduction being usually one-half. Inquiry regarding students' tickets should' be made at the rail- road oflices, and not at the oflice ot' the,Schoo1. SCIIOLARSHIPS. A Garfield Scholarships. - A fund has been contributed, the in- come of which will be used to aid, by scholarships, such young men as the Faculty may deem most worthy. It is hoped that the alumni and friends of the School will add to this fund yearly. Wade Scholarshzjos. - A limited number of' scholarships, re- sulting from the income ot' .the NVade Fund, bequeathed for the benefit of poor and worthy young women, is at' the disposal ot' the olllcers of the School, and will be available to such as require assistance. 142 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Fenno Tudor Loan Fund. -This fund, left by the late Mrs. Fenno Tudor to aid women in the Medical School, will be loaned in sums not exceeding fifty dollars to meritorious women stu- dents, upon suitably indorsed notes bearing interest at four per cent. ' George Russell Loan Fund. - This fund, left by the late Dr. George Russell, will be loaned in sums not exceeding fifty dol- lars to meritorious men students, upon suitably indorsed notes bearing interest at four per cent. A There are also several positions in which successful and worthy applicants, whether men or women, may receive valuable assist- ance in the prosecution of their studies. Among these are the following: 5 House Physicians and House Surgeons to the Massachusetts Homoeopathic IL1spital. --Although this institution is entirely independent of the School, yet for several years these positions have been filled by students in their third or fourth year of study. The successful candidates, at present two men and two women, receive board and lodging, and valuable clinical advantages, in the Hospital. . M1irdock's Free Hospital for Women and Children.--This institution affords the position of House Physician, which may be filled by a woman student in the third or fourth year of study. The Consumptives' Home and Cancer Hospital.--Appoinb ments have been made in both of these institutions, which, aside from the aid furnished, afford excellent opportunities for instruc- tion in the special diseases treated. A Resident Physician and Resident Surgeon to the College Dis- pensary. -The incumbents secure room-rent free, and have very valuable opportunities for seeing practice. The Assistants to the Librarian, Janitor, and Professors re- ceive aid in proportion to the work, clone. Other positions are created as the interests of the School demand. COLLEGE BUILDING. In pursuance of an enabling Act of the Massachusetts Legis- lature, the New England Female Medical College was, in 1874, I I THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE. , 143 united with the Boston University School of Medicine. The original college building, eligibly ituatcd on East Concord Street, opposite the City Hospital, has been greatly enlarged, and now contains three ample lecture-rooms, including an amphi- theatre capable of seating three hundred students, laboratories, a spacious and airy dissecting-room, a museum, a library, a reading-room and cloak and dressing rooms for ladies and gentlemen. There has also been built during the past year a spacious boiler-house, with new and improved heating and vlentilating apparatus.

This School is designed, Hrst, for the benefit of Bachelors of Arts, of whatsoever college, who, with little or no direct refer- ence to fitting themselves for a professional life, may desire to receive post-graduate instruction in this Universityg and, sec- ondly, to meet the wants of graduates in Theology, Law, Medig eine, or other professional course, who may wish to broaden and supplement their professional culture by courses of study in related sciences, arts, and professions. It is the department which crowns and uniiies the entire University. Being a department for elective post-graduate study only, the school will present no strictly prescribed courses. All can- didates for degrees, however, will be advised with respect to their studies, and will receive a degree only after pursuing a course approved by a committee ot' the Council, and passing a satisfactory examination upon it. When fully organized, the instruction presented will include all branches of knowledge adapted to the ends of a universal post-graduate school. To qualified specialists it will aim to puovide, as rapidly as resou1'ces shall permit, thorough instruction in - All Cultivated Languages and their Literatures. All Natural and Mathematical Sciences. All Theological, Legal, and Medical Studies. All Fine Arts, properly so called. All branches of Special Historical Study, etc. For qualified' students of generalizing aims, instruction will be provided as rapidly as possible in the Universal Sciences. Under this term are included all those disciplines in which the matter common to several special sciences is treated as a larger whole. When this is done genetically, there results, according to the method employed, a universal or comparative history of the matter treated 5 when statically, a universal or comparative science of itg when philosophically, a universal or comparative philosophy of it. Here, therefore, belong such sciences as theses- ' THE SCHOOL OF ALL sc1ENcEs. 153 Universal or Comparative History of Languages. Universal or Comparative Philology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Language, or Phi- losophy of Language universally considered. Universal or Comparative History of Religions. l Universal or Comparative Theology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Religion, or Philos- ophy of Religion universally considered. Universal or Comparative History of Laws. Universal or Comparative Jurisprudence. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Law, or Philosophy of Law universally considered. Universal or Comparative History of Societies. Universal or Comparative Sociology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Society, or Philoso- phy of Society universally considered. These sciences are all of recent birth, several of them, in- deed, scarce christened g but all of them are legitimate children of the new science and new methods of the nineteenth century. Others are sure to follow. . CURRENT INSTRUCTION. Some members of this School pursue in absen ia recom- mended courses of study under the direction of the Faculty, presenting themselves from time to time for examination. Oth- ers follow an approved selection from the advanced courses of the University, enjoying as residents access to the libraries and other advantages of the city. With the approbation of the Dean, previously obtained, any ofthe following advanced elec- tives in the College of Liberal Arts and other departments of the University count toward an advanced degree : - ' .

Of thc above, a few may fail to be given, from lack of a suili- cient number of applicants for themg but in such cases a lair inerease of the tuition-fee will secure the course. hPersons who have already been admitted to the degree of Bachelorof Arts, and who desire to fit themselves to become professors of Oratory, are invited to communicate with the Dean, or with the Snow Professor of Elocution and Oratory. As heretofore, the Bachelor of Artsean attain the Master's degree by successfully pursuing prescribed oratorical and other studies for two years. ' TI-IE NATIONAL UNIVERSITY AT ATHENS. Since 1874, by special agreement, members of the School of All Sciences of Boston University who are Bachelors of Arts can pursue approved courses of study in the National Univer- sity at Athens without expense for tuition. On returning, and passing a satisfactory examination, such students will receive their appropriate degree p1'ecisely as if they had remained in residence. . . The National University of Greece, organized by the renas- cent kingdom in 1836, has steadily advanced in strength and resources, until it has come to be recognized as one of the great 156 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. universities of the world. Many years ago Professor Felton wrote of it, Among its professors are men who would do honor to any European university. Since that time its corps ot' instructors has nearly doubled, and tl1e number of students risen from six hundred to between one and two thousand. The programme of lectures for the current term presents over one hundred separate courses. For the purpose of indicating some of the advantages afforded to students of Philology, llistory, and Art, a selection from the lecture-topics ot' the Philosophi- cal Faculty was given in a former volume of the YEAR Booz. THE ROYAL UNIVERSITY AT ROME. Members of the School of All Sciences who are Bachelors of Arts can also pursue approved courses of study in the Royal University at Rome, and on returning, and passing a satisfac- tory examination, receive the appropriate degree. Founded in 1244, fostered through centuries by spiritual and temporal potentates, beautified by the skill of Michael Angelo, supplemented by the unequalled attractions of the Eternal City, the University of Rome has been for many generations one of 'the most renowned in the world. Soon after the occupation of the city as capital of the new kingdom of Italy, the University was entirely re-organized upon a plan worthy of its new metropolitan importance. In Novem- ber, 1870, it was re-opened with appropriate celebrations. Since that time its new fame l1as been steadily increasing. As in the other national universities, the Faculty of Theology has been abolished. The Faculty of Law numbers about twenty professors. Their lecture-courses cover: Introduction to the Study of the Juridical Sciencesg History of Jurisprudenceg Roman Law, the Civil Codeg Institutes of Canon Lawg Crim- inal Lawg Procedure in Criminal Lawg Civil Procedureg Ad- ministrative Law 5 Mercantile Lawg Political Economy, Science of Financeg Constitutional Lawg International Lawg Admi- raltyg Philosophy of Lawg Medical Jurisprudence, eta. The Faculty of Medicine and Surgery has over thirty pro- fessors and assistants. Every branch of Medicine, Surgery, Pharmacy, and Veterinary Science is included in the instruc- X THE SCIIOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 157 tion. Connected with a large number of the most magnificent and extensive hospitals in the world, the clinics of the medical departments a1'e of' remarkable variety and value. The Faculty of Physical and Mathematical ,Sciences is of' the same size as that of' Medicineg the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters, only a little smaller. In this last department alone there are some fifty courses of instruction from term to term. The great libraries of the city, its various learned societies of cosmopolitan fame, its museums and palaces and galleries of' art, its historic basilicas and churches and catacombs, its monuments of ante-Christian antiquity, walls, pillars, arches of triumph, fora, aqueduets, temples, tombs, -all these and' many more are among the daily instructors of the student in Rome. , DEGREES.

For special provisions affecting the dues of Bachelors of Arts of this University, see College of Liberal Arts, 4' The Higher Degrees. ' ' . 160 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. SCHOLARSHIPS. . To enable this School to render the high service to American scholarship which it .is adapted to render, provision should be made for the partial support of all who give promise of emi- nence in the studies required for a second degree, but who cannot command the 'resources necessary to further residence. Such provision can best be made by the endowment of scholar- ships and fellowships under the administration of the Trustees of the University. This work is warmly commended to persons of wealth desirous of rendering the highest forms of education a most needed service. The General Statutes of the University upon Scholarships, and the privilege accorded to founders of them, may be seen under the head of New Foundations in this issue of the YEAR Boon. FELLOWSHIPS. The purpose of the Fellowships is to aid the meritorious in special investigations and studies beyond the second degree. The country has a great many scholars of the average excel- lence of a thorough Master of Arts. It greatly needs, in addition to these, at least a few in every great department of learning, who, over and above the highest ordinary advantages, shall have enjoyed the best that the world can anywhere aflbrd. No private study, particularly in connection with laborious scholastic or professional duties, can ever make good the'lack of such opportunities in early life. The General Statutes of the University upon Fellowships are as follows : - 1. All recipients of the above lhigherl degrees from this-University shall be eligible to the University Fellowshipsg and each Fellow shall be aided in the further prosecution of studies, especially in foreign univer- sities, hospitals, and other institutions, to the.amount of not less than five hundred dollars per annum for such periods as the statutes may allow. 2. In filling the professorships of the University, Fellows will be con- sidered as preferred candidates. I It is earnestly hoped that one or more Fellowships may at once be endowed.

For the convenience of candidates, the regulations relating to the degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy are here summarized, as follows:- 1. Bachelors of Arts of Boston University, or of any other institution of acceptable rank, on attending an approved course of instruction in the School of All Sciences, not less than ten hours a week for one year, and passing satisfactory examinations, and presenting suitable gradu- ation theses, are eligible to the degree of Master of Arts. A second year's attendance under like conditions conducts to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. 2. All persons promoted to the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Col- lege of Liberal Arts of this University are eo facto, and without pay- ment of any fee, entitled to one year's standing in the School of All Sciences. But all who fail during this first year to present themselves for examination, or to propose plans of further study, wlll, at its expiration, be dropped from the register of the School. 3. Members of the School of All Sciences who have been in attend- ance upon instruction in any department of the University not less than one year, may also pursue approved courses of study tn absentia, pre- senting themselves from time to time, as they may be prepared, at the examinations held in the School, or tin remote placesl at examinations held by University examiners specially appointed in their vicinity. These students may present themselves at any regular examination in as many or as few of the subjects of their course as they may choose, but in the case of non-resident students, promotion to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy cannot, under any ordinary circumstances, occur before the close of the third year after admission to the first degree in arts. , 4. Regular students in the Professional Schools of the University, if 162 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Bachelors of Arts, may,' with consent ot' their Dean, matriculate in this Schoolg but under ordinary circumstances such candidates cannot be pro- moted to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy until at least one year alter receiving their professional degree. 5. Candidates finding it convenient to take less than full work in the School of All Sciences will receive credit for any amount taken if equiv- alent to one hour a week for one termg and any deficiencies in the amount required for a degree may be made up by private examinations, as in the case of students in absentia. 6. If the candidate in absentia do not desire to devote himself to a single department of study, lie can procure from the Dean a list of sub- jects and authors, reconnnended as adapted to the needs of graduate students. This will materially assist him ln preparing the statements required below. In order to become eligible for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in this elective method, the candidate must pass in subject No. 1 ofthe list, and in ni least four Qt' the remaining sulgiects and specified authors. To become eligible to the degree of Master of Arts, any selec- tion from the recommended subjects and authors is allowable, provided it be considered by the authorities as equivalent to one-half of what is required for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. 7. In making application for an elective course of this kind, the can- didate should distlnctly state in writing ill the studies and authors which he desires and proposes to take npg and C21 those from which he would desire additional ones to be taken, in case the authorities consider the first list lnsutlicient as a basis for the degree. The order in which subjects and treatises are named in this second list will be understood to indicate the order of the applicant's preference. In case the candi- date is not a Bachelor of Arts of Boston University, he must i3l present with his application a full statement of the curriculum on which his degrees were given, including the required and elective studies taken, and the time devoted to each. If the applicant is not a graduate of Boston University College of Liberal Arts, the matrlculation fee 18101 must accompany the application. 8. No person who is not to be in residence iunless he has already been at least one year in residence in some department of the Unlversityj can be admitted to the School of All Sciences, and to candidacy for its degrees. - 9. For students not in residence, there will be, at Jacob Sleeper Hall, three opportunities for examination, namely: ill thefourth Thursday in Septemberg i2l the third Thursday in December, and 131 the third Thurs- day in March. Hours from 12 A.M. to 4 P.M. For examination at any other time or place, an extra fee of Sl will be required. To prevent mis- understandings, the candidate intending to present himself for examina- tion must notify the Dean of the subject or subjects two weeks before the time. 10. The FINAL examinations of all candidates in abseniia mUs'r nm coMPLa'raD IN MARCH. x THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 163 Essays under the head of History, to count toward the degree, must be presented on or before the last day of March. 11. The annual examination-fee is 310, but this is not required of students in attendance upon instruction in the course pursued, paying tuition, and passing their examinations with a class. 12. The fee for promotion to the degree of Master of Arts is, for Bachelors of Arts ot' Boston University, 810g for all others, 2620. The fee for admission to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy is for all, 530. 13. A Graduation Thesis, giving evidence of original research, is re- quired of each candidate for a. degree. Unless otherwise arranged by the Dean, it must be presented not later than the last day of March. Candidates for the Doctor's degree are liable to be called upon to defend their theses before a Committee of the Senate. As a rule, the narrower and more special the theme, the better, provided it is intrinsically im- portant, and capable of being studied in different languages, or depart- ments of investigation. Thus, The Reformation, Scotch Philos- ophy, Terrestrial Physics,'4' and similar themes, are too general. On the other hand, special studies of this sort, The Effects of the Refor- mation on European Folklore, German and French Estimates of Thomas Reid, Theories of the Nature of the Atomj' would be better adapted to show within the appropriate limits 111 the writer's ability in original research, 121 his capacity for original thought, and ISI his skill in original composition. As a rule, the thesis for the doctorate should be from three to four thousand words in length. All graduation theses should be upon thesis paper of the size of that supplied from the otiice, written upon the right-hand pages only, with margins of one inch at top, bottom, and sides. All references to authorities should be accompanied by exact citations of the work quoted, the edition, page, section, or other appropriate division in foot-notes, for verification. 14. In correspondence with this office, let no postal-cards be used, as every communication must go on file for reference. ADMISSION. Any person desiring to become a candidate for instruction or for degrees, in this School, must makeapplication in writing to the Dean. The application should be as explicit as possible as to the applieant's present attainments, and plans for the future. It should be remembered that no person who is not to be in residence fnnless he has already been at least one year in residence in some department of the Universityj can be admitted to the School, or to candidacy for a degree. Applicants who have not been admitted to the degree of Bachelor of Arts must 164 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. rank as members of the College of Liberal Arts until they attain this degree. As a rule, no applicant will be admitted in this department, except at or near the beginning of the scholastic year. For circulars address ' PROFESSOR HENRY C.

Classes in ancient and modern languages are divided into small sections, to ensure personal attention to each scholar, and the teachers are ready to give extra help out of recitation hours. The school has already increased its attention to modern lan- guages and physical Science, and is ready to meet in tlns hnc any new requirements for college. The attention of parents, particularly of those who wish their children to begin Latin at an early age, is invited to 1. The watchful care here in regard to Bnnltary Matters. 2. The aid in the lorumtlnn of Character, Habits, and Manners. t ll courses to Composition' 3. The attention given throughou a , English Literature, and Declamatlon. The large number of teachers affords unusual advantages for Students wishing to enter Professional Schools without going through College. Students iitting for THE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY receive special instruction in a class by themselves during the last year hcfore examination, in all branches where their work docs not coincide with the demands for college. Young Ladies who are fitting for college, or forthe Institute of Technology, have the great advantage of reciting in the same classes with boys who are on the regular course of preparation, and of being under teachers who have successfully carried on such preparation for many years. Such students have been fitted here, or are now iitting, for Boston and Cornell Universities, the Harvard Annex, Smith, Vassar, and Wellesley Colleges, and the Institute of Technology. i Information may he obtained from the President and Faculty of Boston University in regard to the standing of their students whose preparatory course was tiuished at Chauncy llall.

A ' tTen Miles from Bostonn The only School for Young Women alone, under the Auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church in New England. VVE try to continue through the years spent at school the influence of refined Christian association and oversight, and to make the at- mosphere of culture conducive to the training of girls for their dis- tinetive duties in home life. While maintaining a thorough classical course for pupils desiring it, and sending representatives to the best colleges open to women, our own regular course emphasizes the study of the English Language and Literature, History, and Natural Science. ' Native and English instruction is combined for thorough training in French and German. Piano, Organ, Violin, Guitar, and Vocal In- struction, and also that in Drawing and Painting, are in charge of the best city masters. .' The system lpeculiar to this schooll of self-government, after a sue- cessful probation, appeals to the best motives, and -rarely fails to strengthen in the pupil the sense of responsibility to herself, that is most valuable in life. In many years of practical trial we have found mental training to be strengthened and broadened by diversion at times to some practical interests. To them, therefore, some recreation time, easily spared, has been given, and, as results have often proved, this has been prep- aration for various fortune. - For nine years lessons have been given in Cooking, Dress-making, Millinery, Mending, and other domestic Arts, by ladies of assured skill in these departments of work. The Cooking has fine lecture and work rooms of its own in the new building. A large class in Phonography is maintained by a gentleman of much experience as teacher and reporter. Lectures on the Principles of Common Law are given by an eminent Boston Lawyer. The new Gymnasium is not surpassed in facilities forthe physical training of girls, having been fitted up under the direction of Dr. Sar- gent of Cambridge, and being under the supervision of a graduate from his school for teachers. A resident lady physician has oversight of the health of all the pupils. To secure place, application must be made early, as many are re- fused for lack of room. For Catalogue, apply to C. c.
