me ccnmnsmnn ,gs Department of Art and Archaeology Lectures in history of art were given at the seminary as early as IS74, and in i878 history of art became a regular part of the course of study. From almost the opening year instruction in drawing has held a recognized place. With the growth of the department an appeal for an art building was made in IS96. In l902 the Dwight Memorial Art Building, erected at a cost of fB75,000, was opened to classes. The building includes lecture rooms, department library, studios, galleries of sculpture and painting, and a room devoted'to the Clara Leigh Dwight Collection of Elbridge Kingsley's engrav- ings. The library now includes nearly 2,500 volumes. Collections of photographs, prints and lantern slides have been carefully selected, and over 9,000 photographs are now used by the department. Through the gifts of alumnae and friends the collection of casts has come to include representative examples in pre-Greek, Greek, Roman, and Renaissance sculpture, with some architectural models and casts. There is also a good beginning in original material, Greek and Roman coins, ancient vases and vase fragments. The staff of instruction now numbers six and offers sixteen courses in art and archaeology. Studio work is done in connection with nearly every course. Dwight Hall has proved admirably adapted to its purpose of art study and exhibition. Books and illustrative material are brought side by side and the advantage is increasingly afforded of using casts and photographs with journals, reference books, and all standard authorities, ready Miss JEWETT at hand- .

me ccnmnnnnn Q Department of Mathematics , . .,.. .., NX X The beginning of the Department of Mathematics dates from the Hrst year of the seminary, when Colborn's First Lessons and Adam's New Arithmetic were required for admission, and Playfair's Euclid and Day's Algebra were studied during the first two years. In IS54 a course in trigonometry was added: early in the eighties was introduced Professor Olney's series of text books, and students were encouraged to attempt general geometry and calculus. Several years before the announcement of electives in the catalogue, is found the statement, Further mathematical instruction is provided if desired. At the present time the required work of the Freshman year may be followed by twenty elective courses, giving fifty hours of credit, and covering the field of mathematics from the elements of analytic geometry and calculus to modern geometry, applications of the calculus, and the theory of functions. Mount Holyoke was one of the Hrst colleges to offer work in the history of mathematics, the subject being included in the requirements for a major as early as l892. Besdes the well-known histories the department library contains a valuable collection of famous mathematical works belonging to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The equipment also includes sets of plaster and thread models for illustration in the various courses.
