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.
