ADELPHI COLLEGE. 13 ADELPHI COLLEGE. TX DELPHI COLLEGE was incorporated by the unanimous vote of the Regents of the University of the State of New York, at Albany, Wednesday, June 24, 1896. In the name of that University, as well as in its own name, its honors will be bestowed. The degrees issued by Adelphi will bear the seals of both the University and the College, and will be signed by the Chancellor and Secretary of the University as well as by the officers of the College. Adelphi College is the natural outcome and fitting crown of the Adelphi Academy. The Academy still remains intact, but its Collegiate Department, which formerly included much work of collegiate grade, for which it could not easily obtain proper credit, is now extended to the full limit of the customary college courses. In any one of these courses the Bachelor’s degree may be obtained by two years of successful study beyond the completion of the Adelphi Academy curriculum. That curriculum, however, remains substantially unchanged in time and scope, and its di- ploma will be awarded under the same conditions as heretofore. The courses of study leading to a baccalaureate degree in Adelphi College are arranged in three groups, viz. : the Classical Course, the Literary Course and the Scientific Course. Students who complete the required amount of work in the Classical or Literary Course to the satisfaction of the Faculty will receive the degree of Bachelor of Arts ; in the Scientific Course they will, under similar conditions, receive the degree of Bachelor of Science. All courses in Adelphi College are open to women. 14 ADELPHI COLLEGE. TERflS OF ADMISSION.

The Adelphi Field. Lecture Room, Department of Chemistry. ADELPHI COLLEGE. 33 EQUIPMENT. I. Buildings.—The group of buildings now occupied by the College and the Academy fills the entire end of the block between Lafayette avenue and Clifton place, upon St. James place. Adelphi College is the name of the new building whose main entrance is on Clifton place. This handsome structure was erected in 1887-88, through the generosity of the late Mr. Charles Pratt, who was then President of the corporation. The central building is an assembly hall, 50x72 feet, with sittings for about a thousand persons. In the basement, extending across the whole block, is the gym- nasium, occupying three large rooms and covering a space 200 x 50 feet. Convenient access to the buildings is provided by the Brooklyn Union Elevated R. R. (DeKalb or Greene Avenue Stations), or by the Greene, DeKalb, Franklin, Vanderbilt and Fulton electric cars. The ventilation of all the buildings is complete and perfect. A large fan is placed in the upper part of each building, discharging air from a reservoir which receives ventilating flues from all the rooms. These fans are driven by electric motors from a dynamo connected with a forty horse- power engine. By this means the air in both buildings can be completely renewed at least once every half hour in the most unfavorable weather. The principal room in the gymnasium opens directly into the outer air by means of large skylights in the roof, so that these rooms are especially well lighted and ventilated. The Adelphi provides accommodation for the clothing of pupils, and takes due precaution for the security of such articles, but it cannot be res- ponsible for their safety. II. The Library and Reading Room.—The Library now contains about seven thousand volumes. The librarian is in constant attendance, and there is a complete card catalog. Both library and reading-room are at the service of the students in all departments. Among the principal periodicals on file in the reading-room are the following: The American Agriculturist, Anthony’s Photographic Bulletin, Popular Astronomy, The Atlantic Monthly, The Book Buyer, The Century Magazine, Child Garden, The Congressional Record, The Contemporary Review, The Cosmopolitan, Education, The Educational Review, The Fortnightly Review, The Forum, The Geographical Journal, Harper’s Magazine, Harper’s Weekly, Harvard Graduates’ Magazine, The Illustrated London News, The Journal of Education, The Kindergarten Magazine, Kindergarten News, The Magazine of Art, The Nineteenth Century, Outing, The Popular Science Monthly, Power, The Review of Reviews, The School Bulletin, The School Review, Science, The Scientific American and Supplement, Scribner’s Mag- azine, The Yale Review, The Youth’s Companion. 3 34 ADELPHI COLLEGE. III. The Gymnasium and Playing Field.—The gymnasium is in charge of a Director, who is a physician, and of a lady assistant, who is especially charged with the conduct of the girls’ classes. The calisthenium is a spacious room provided with a piano, and with the usual equipment of wands, clubs and bells. The remaining space, besides dressing-rooms, bath- room and offices, contains two large rooms well supplied with all modern apparatus. In these rooms are found hand-ball courts and a basket-ball field; chest weights, back and loin attachments; intercostal machines, traveling parallels and a quarter circle; a set of Swedish apparatus and of climbing apparatus; twelve-pound shots and hammers, with vaulting apparatus ; a full equipment for anthropometric work, and all the best appli- ances for gymnastic exercises, including rings, bars, horses, parallels, ladders, mattresses and trapeze. The playing field, which is now in the possession of the Academy, is situated near Classon Avenue, between Park Place and Prospect Place. It is near the Franklin Avenue, Bergen Street and Vanderbilt Avenue line of cars, and is about twelve minutes’ walk from the Academy. It contains ball fields, tennis courts, running tracks and a grand stand, with seats for two hundred and fifty persons. Underneath the grand stand are dressing-rooms, with lockers and bath-rooms. The carriage entrance to the field is on Pros- pect Place. The ordinary entrance is on Park Place, near Classon Avenue. IV. The Chemical Lecture Room and Laboratories.—The Chemical Depart?nent occupies nearly all of the fourth floor of the College Building, and in completeness of equipment ranks with the best among the higher edu- cational institutions of the State. The Lecture Roo7n is large and well lighted, and has seats for eighty students. It is provided with a complete system of electric lighting and means for using the electric current for many lecture experiments. One of the important features of the equipment is a specially constructed electric projecting lantern of 2,000 candle-power, with attachments for horizontal, vertical and side projection and special apparatus for the projection of microscopic objects. Adjoining the lecture room is the processo?''s office and cabinets for storing the apparatus used in the lectures, as well as the more delicate and accurate analytic apparatus, among which may be mentioned complete apparatus for the rapid analysis of gases, graduated apparatus for volumetric analysis, platinum and silverware for quantitative analysis, and special glassware for organic analysis. The Main Laboratory provides separate desks for seventy- two students, each desk supplied with gas and running water, and a full set of chemicals and apparatus for experimental work. All experiments involving the production of disagreeable gases or fumes are performed in closets directly connected with the main ventilating flues of the building, and in addition to this, each laboratory is ventilated by independent electric fans. Two small dark rooms equipped for spectroscopic analysis form a part In the Physical Lecture Room : tiie X Ray Apparatus. Assay Laboratory, Department ok Chemistry. ADELPHI COLLEGE. 37 of the main laboratory. The Quantitative Laboratory provides accommo- dation for thirty-two students. Its general equipment is similar to that of the main laboratory. The Assay Laboratory provides working desks for twenty-four students, and contains complete apparatus for the mechanical preparation of ores for assay. There are two muffle furnaces, two crucible furnaces and one cupelling furnace, all heated by gas. Two automatic stills in this room supply the distilled water for use in all the laboratories. The Weighing Room contains three Becker analytic balances, one Sartorius short-beam balance for heavy apparatus in organic analysis, one Becker short-beam assay balance, one ore balance, one bullion balance and one Westphal specific gravity balance, a complete equipment for all kinds of exact chemical work. The Blowpipe Laboratory contains the mineralogical collections, which are always open to the students for examination and com- parison. The working tables are arranged for twenty-four students. A supply room contains a store of extra apparatus from which the students can obtain all the material they require in their experimental work. This room is arranged for use as a photographic dark room, with complete apparatus for making lantern slides, including a fine copying, enlarging and reducing camera, and complete equipment for electric illumination, render- ing it possible to do photographic work at all times without dependence upon sunlight, V. The Physical Laboratories.—The laboratories for Physics are well arranged for their special use. The equipment is already large. A clock, beating seconds, gives electrical signals in all the rooms. There is a bench with tools for both wood and metal work, and an engine lathe driven by an electric motor. For accurate measurement there are vernier and micrometer gauges, a spherometer, good balances and a Koenig’s tuning-fork chronograph. There are also a large air pump with acces- sories, an Atwood’s machine, and much apparatus to demonstrate the laws of force and motion. There is a complete set of meteorological instruments, with which a daily record is kept. For heat measurements there are calorimeters, thermometers, and a thermopile. The sound apparatus includes sonometers, a set of Koenig’s forks, an apparatus for demonstrating the timbre of sounds by manometric flames, organ pipes, and tubes for measuring wave length. In optics the equipment includes a Browning spectroscope with two prisms, a Rutherford diffrection grating, a spectrometer, a Bunsen photo- meter complete with candle balance, wet meter Methven screen and Standard Argand gas burner, apparatus for producing the spectra of metals by the -electric arc, Nicol’s prisms and apparatus for illustrating the polarization of light, compound microscopes and facilities for measuring the focal lengths of lenses and mirrors. Among the electrical instruments may be enumerated batteries of various types, a reflecting Thomson’s galvanometer of .six thousand ohms, a Wheatstone’s bridge of twenty-one thousand ohms, various resistance 38 ADELPHI COLLEGE. boxes, a D’Arson val horizontal magnet galvanometer with both ordinary and ballistic coils, several forms of astatic needle and tangent galvano- meters, an Elliott condenser, Mascart electrometer, Weston voltmeter and ammeter, Carhart-Clark cell, large Ruhmkorff coil, Toepier machine, besides other forms of galvanometers and bridges, and much general apparatus. The apparatus provides for practicing the various modes of measuring current, potential and resistance. There is an electric lighting and power plant, consisting of a 40 horse- power engine, a 250-light U. S. direct current dynamo, and three U. S. motors. During the hours of session these furnish current in the lecture- room and laboratories, and drive the ventilating fans. At other times con- nection is had with the Edison 3-wire system, giving a constant potential of 230 volts. The department is provided with a good photographic outfit, a x S£ camera with a Dallmeyer lens, a 10x12 copying camera, and a dark room well ventilated and lighted by the electric light, equipped with every nec- essary appliance. The lecture-room, with a seating capacity of one hundred, is on the south side of the building, and has all the approved arrangements for its special use. It is darkened by shutters sliding from the walls. The sun- light, the calcium or the electric light may be used for projection or experiment. The lantern is provided with vertical attachment, polarizing elbow and microscope, and there is a large set of objects for projection. Colt’s elec- tric arc lamp has recently been added to it. Wires connect it with the lecture table, so that electrical experiments performed there may be projected on the screen. Several thousand lantern slides are used here each year in illustrating geography and history to the Academic classes studying those subjects. Among recent additions to the apparatus are a D’Arson val galvanometer, a spectrometer, an electric lamp for the lantern, calorimeters, a sonometer, vernier gauges, balances, a tangent galvanometer, an astatic needle gal- vanometer, a Wheatstone’s wire bridge, a deflection magnetometer, etc., and apparatus for measuring vocal length and magnifying power of lenses and mirrors. VI. The Biological Laboratories and Collections for use in Teach- ing Natural History.—-The Biological Laboratories and Lecture-room are adjacent to the Chemical Laboratory. The Biological Laboratories are two in number, and are well provided with facilities for botanical and zoological study, including dissecting and compound microscopes, a herbarium, mount- ing apparatus and various reagents. For the use of classes in Zoology and Physiology there is a fine col- lection of type vertebrate skeletons, prepared by Prof. H. A. Ward, of Rochester; a human skull with the bones all separated ; two human ADELPHI COLLEGE. 39 skeletons, one mounted and one disarticulated; plaster and papier-mache models of different parts of the human body; charts and manikins. The Geological collection includes the representative fossils of all the formations, and also large collections of the different kinds of rocks. The Mineralogical collection contains about two thousand specimens, including examples of all the common minerals and ores. A small set of models of crystals forms a part of this collection. VII. The flathematical Laboratory.—The equipment for surveying includes a complete Engineer’s Transit (Buff Berger), a Surveyor’s Transit (Pike Sons), a Y Level (Heller Brightly), New York and Boston rods, self-reading rod for telemeter work, and the usual pins, tapes, flags, ranging poles, etc. The mechanical drawing-room is large and well lighted and fully supplied with cabinets, shelves, and the necessary desk room.

Departments of the Academy.—The Adelphi Academy provides the means for a thorough and systematic education from the very beginning of school life to the time when the student is either equipped for the active work of the larger world outside of school walls, or is ready to enter upon the special training of university studies. The Academy intends, therefore, to present a complete school system in one group of buildings, and conse- quently to give its students the impress of a uniform educational policy and of an unbroken educational development. There are seven divisions of the Academy : The Kindergarten and Primary Department, the Grammar Department, the Sub-Col- legiate Department, the Collegiate Department, the Kindergarten Training-Class, the Art Department and the Department of Phys- ical Culture. The Kindergarten Course may extend through three years. It forms an admirable preparation for the work of the primary grades. A training-class for teachers, strictly limited in numbers, is main- tained in connection with the Kindergarten. Into the Kinder- garten itself children who are four years old may be admitted. They have careful attention from the time of reaching the build- ing until they leave, and are trained by the most approved meth- ods. They are kept quite separate from the main body of stu- dents. The hours of session are from 9 a. m. to 12 m. Parents of the pupils are at all times welcome to the Kindergarten rooms. •Other visitors are requested to apply for admission in the Bursar’s office. The Primary and Grammar Departments comprise eight classes, or grades, each one year in duration. Pupils may be admitted to the Primary Department who have attained the age of six years. The first four years of study form the Primary Department. 42 ADELPHI ACADEMY. Manual Training and either German or French are offered in this department. The last four years comprise the usual grammar- school course. Latin may be begun in the third year of the latter course. Rooms and hours of the school session in this department are arranged, as far as possible, so that pupils of the four primary grades may not come in contact with other classes. The Sub-Collegiate Department continues the more advanced preparatory school work which has been begun in the Seventh Grade of the Grammar Department, and carries it through three years up to the entrance to the Collegiate Department. At the beginning of the First Sub-Collegiate year the student may select any one of three courses, viz. : the Classical Course, the Literary Course and the Scientific Course. Each one of these courses offers its own appropriate curriculum up to and through the Col- lege Course to a baccalaureate degree. In the Sub-Collegiate Department the Classical Course affords a thorough preparation for Adelphi or any other college ; the Literary Course offers a comprehensive, liberal training suitable for a general education or for preparation for professional schools; the Scientific Course prepares for a business career or for admis- sion to the Adelphi College Scientific Course, or to any scientific or technical school. The Collegiate Department of the Academy, as distinct from the College, comprises two years of study in any one of these three courses. These two years, called the Fourth and Fifth, respectively, are, as a rule, identical with the Freshman and Sophomore years of the Adelphi College curriculum. Elective studies may be chosen in any of these courses, subject to the approval of the Faculty. The diploma of the Academy is given to every student who completes any one of these prescribed courses to the end of the Fifth, or Sophomore Year. If any regular student in the Sub- Collegiate Department prepares there for another college or uni- versity, the diploma of the Academy may be granted to him or her in due course upon evidence that an equivalent of the remaining work in the Adelphi curriculum has been satisfactorily performed in the class-rooms of such a college or university. Minerai.ogical Laboratory. ADELPHI ACADEMY. 45 The Kindergarten Training-Class offers a two-years’ course of study to a limited number of persons who may wish to fit them- selves for the calling of a Kindergartner under exceptionally favorable circumstances. In the Art Department students may follow any special lines of art work, under most advantageous conditions of light and space. The Department of Physical Culture offers facilities for out- door and indoor exercise of all kinds and grades. From the beginning of the Adelphi Academy this Department has performed an important and prominent work in it. The privileges of this Department are extended to all students in the Academy. All students as far as the end of the Sixth Grammar Grade are required to join Calisthenic classes. All students above that grade may enter the Gymnastic classes. II. Admission of Students.—Applications for admission should be made on June 9, 1897, or on September 15, 16 and 17, 1897, at the Academy. Admission at any time is granted to those who can show evidence of ability to take up the work of any class. There are no formal examinations for admission. Newly admitted students are finally graded by the evidence of their daily work in class during the weeks immediately following their admission. Pupils from any other schools applying for admission to the Adelphi Academy should, if possible, present records of rank and latest pro- motion in the schools which they have been attending. Persons who wish to enter the Adelphi for the purpose of studying special subjects must give satisfactory evidence of ability to pursue such studies, and must conform to all rules of order prescribed for those in the regular courses. The privilege of pursuing special subjects will be with- drawn from all who fail to comply with such regulations. HI. Attendance and Discipline.—In order to form systematic busi- ness-like habits and to make the most of the time devoted to education, pupils are required to be regular and punctual in attendance and in all school duties. A teacher cannot be responsible for the backwardness of those students who allow trifling causes to interfere with their attendance. It is also particularly desirable that the pupils should not lose time during the first few weeks of the school year and at its end. A fortnight more of vaca- tion in Autumn or Spring cannot often be worth the risk of falling behind in studies. 46 ADELPHI ACADEMY. Pupils who have been absent or tardy are expected to state the reason therefor promptly to the teacher in charge of the room. If no reason for absence or tardiness is known to the teacher, or the reason given seems insufficient, notice of such absence or tardiness is sent home. Written excuses signed by the parent are not necessary unless specially requested. It is only desired that parents should know the testimony of the roll books, and should cooperate with the teachers in correcting any possible carelessness or delinquency. Students who persist in wrong conduct, or who fail in dili- gence, will be carefully and kindly warned of the consequences of wrong- doing or of indolence. Parents will also be notified of such deficiencies by the periodical reports or by special information. Students who are disobedi- ent or wilfully inattentive after warnings, will be excluded from the Academy. Every student in the Academy is assigned to a teacher who exercises careful and constant supervision. In the Sub-Collegiate and Collegiate Departments such teachers are called “ Class-Advisers.” It is hoped that parents will become acquainted with the teachers who have charge of their children. It is particularly desired that parents should keep the Principal and the class officers in the Faculty informed concerning the nature and extent of the pupil's home study. At the close of each daily session there is opportunity for conference between parents and teachers, but such interviews should not occur during the school session. Time is allowed in every class for some daily study in school hours. Teachers will remain after the close of a day’s session for the purpose of aid- ing those who deserve and need help. Members of the more advanced classes are expected to study at home daily from one to two and one-half hours, according to age and capacity. Every student who is able to pursue a regular course of study is expected to do so. IV. Records of Rank.—For the students below the Collegiate Depart- ment of the Academy reports are made monthly to the parents, showing the scholarship, punctuality and conduct of each pupil. Parents are requested to examine these reports regularly, sign them promptly, and return them to the Academy. A half-yearly estimate based upon these reports is kept as a permanent record. In the Collegiate Department similar reports are pre- pared and sent home at any time if the Faculty orders it. or if the parent requests it. The reports of class-work, which are presented to the Faculties weekly throughout the year, are made the basis of the final record of scholarship in any subject. Formal examinations at the end of work upon any subject are given only to students who have been absent from the class for some portion of the time and to those who have been delinquent. Students who fail to do satisfactory work may, at the direction of the ADELPHI ACADEMY. 47 Faculty, be required to discontinue a study at any time, to make up deficien- cies after the close of the school year if possible, and to present themselves for “ Condition Examinations” in June or September. The promotion of each student from one year to another is determined by the Faculty of the department or grade to which the student belongs. V. Honors, Scholarships and Prizes—Students in the Academy above the Primary Department, pursuing a regular course of study, who have a record of highly creditable work and of constant attendance, and whose conduct' has been satisfactory, will receive honorary certificates at the close of the year. The “ Charles Pratt Scholarship,” the “ Hayden W. Wheeler Scholar- ship,” the “ E. F. de Selding Scholarship,” the “ W. S. Woodward Scholar- ship,” and the “ Harold Dollner Scholarship,” are given annually to such fit persons as may be nominated by the President of the Board, Hayden W. Wheeler, E. F. de Selding, Mrs. W. S. Woodward, and the Treasurer of the Board, respectively. Candidates for said scholarships must have attained the age of fourteen years, or, if under fourteen years of age, must prove, upon examination by the Principal, well qualified to enter the First Sub-Collegiate Class of the Adelphi Academy. Scholarships will be renewed to those only who attain a high standard in their work. Scholars whose record has been and is entirely satisfactory, but who find themselves prevented by lack of means from continuing their education, are invited to consult with the Principal concerning the possibility of making such arrangements as will enable them to go on with their studies. So far as the resources of the Academy may permit, it is the intention to extend a helping hand to every worthy student who may need assistance. By gift from Charles Pratt, the income of $1,000 is applied annually to prizes for improvement in penmanship. These prizes are open to students on full course in all departments. The same benefactor also established a fund to encourage good reading and elocution. The income is applied to awards for those who have made the most improvement during the year, and also to the providing of new matter for supplementary reading. VI. Certificates for Admission to College.—Colleges and universi- ties which admit students upon certificate will accept the certificates of the Adelphi Academy. Among the institutions with which the Academy is thus related are the following : Amherst College, Cornell University, Mt. Holyoke College, Smith College, Vassar College, Wellesley College, Wesleyan Uni- versity, Williams College and the Woman’s College of Baltimore. CONSPECTUS OF STUDIES THE KINDERGARTEN. Two years' Co7irse. Sessions 9 to 12 o’clock. x. The Songs and Games of the Kindergarten introduce the study of Natural Science, stimulating the imagination, developing a sympathy with nature, and suggesting the highest ideals in thought and action. 2. The Gifts form the basis of Mathematical Scierice, illustrating the solid, surface, line and point. The pupil acquires from the Gifts a knowledge of geometric forms and different combinations of number. 3. The Occupations apply to the principles that underlie the Gifts and cultivate a taste for the beautiful in form and color, training the eye and hand to work in unison with the mind; learning comes by doing. Color music is used, including also exercises in breathing. The Kindergarten training seeks to develop inventiveness, thoroughness, sympathy and generosity, power of concentration and power of language and reason. The right beginning is half the battle.

It is, however, of course understood that no student may pass from the Third Sub-Collegiate Year into the Freshman Class unless the entrance requirements have been satisfactorily met 'during the regular course of stud)’- or by successfully passing the stated entrance examinations. ADELPHI ACADEMY. 5i THE ADELPHI TRAINING CLASS FOR KINDERGARTNERS. The Adelphi training class combines the advantages of practice in the excellent Kindergarten of the Academy with the same instruction in art, science, music, physical culture, psychology, pedagogics and history that is offered to the College classes. The course extends through two years. Candidates for admission must be at least eighteen years of age; must have had either a high-school training or its equivalent, and must satisfy the Director that they are competent to study kindergartening with prospect of success. Students who complete the full course and give satisfactory proof of proficiency and ability will receive a diploma certifying to their attain- ments.

Y.” Terms: The fee for instruction in the Kindergarten Training Class is $100 per annum. There are no extra charges. 52 ADELPHI ACADEMY. THE ART DEPARTHENT. Drawing is rightly a part of the education of every man and woman. A knowledge of it may always be turned to account, especially in these days when there is so large a demand for decorative work and applied art. There is no other study, regarded in the light of training, that so inculcates the power and habit of observation, that so fosters accuracy, or tends more surely to correct those errors of sight, and incidentally of judgment, that arise from inapt seeing. Nor does any study prove to be of greater service to the student in after life, even though he pursues a vocation that is far removed from art. Pictures are the universal language, and the ability to make them, slight though it may be, is one that confers a distinct practical advantage on the individual, while it is of yet higher service in purifying his pleasures and raising the standard of his tastes. Drawing has a place in every year of the curriculum of the Academy. In the primary grades it has a solid basis in the manual training course, with which it is properly joined. The manual training workrooms are two in number, one for younger pupils and one for students who are old enough for bench work and carving. In the higher grammar grades and in the collegiate department free-hand drawing may be continuously studied, either as required or optional work. In addition to the facilities offered to the students in the regular courses of study, every possible advantage is secured to those who wish to devote themselves exclusively to the study of art. The whole of the upper story of the Collegiate Building is devoted to the Art Department. There is a spacious studio which is furnished with full and half-sized statues, large and small torsos, busts, masks, and reliefs. There is also a large room for classes in drawing and painting from life. Besides, there are three rooms: for modeling, the making of casts, and for the use of small classes. The special scholar entering the Art Department is independent of the academic branches of the school, and there are no restrictions as to age. One may choose, according to predilection or ability, between the antique, still life, portrait, figure, charcoal, pastel, oil and water color, or he may include all in his studies for which he finds time. Students in this Department are admitted to all the privileges of the College Library and Reading-room. It is hardly needful to cite the success which has come to many of our painters, sculptors and illustrators from the training and criticism they received in this school. It is enough merely to name among its graduates such well-known artists as William Ordway Partridge, Frank M. Boggs, Wilson De Meza, Albert P. Lucas, Orrin W. Simons, Harry Roseland, Hugh Eaton, W. E. Plympton, Phcebe Bunker, Eleanor Bannister, Mrs. G. D. Stearns, Gerald L. Steenks, Carrie L. Carter, Mrs. A. W. Bailey, M. R. Dixon, Alice Lovett, C. A. Burlingame and Joseph H. Boston. The Life Class. In the Studio. ADELPHI ACADEMY. 55 A STATEflENT OF FACTS ABOUT THE ADELPHI. In the Adelphi about sixty teachers are employed. This makes it possi- ble to divide classes into small sections and to give close individual attention to each pupil. Co-education preserves and develops the moral restraints and natural training of the home life. Each student is especially assigned to one teacher for supervision. Students who are ahead of their class in any study may enter an ad- vanced class in such studies. The curriculum extends from the kindergarten to the college, affording an opportunity for unbroken scholastic progress. It offers to the pupil the best educational preparation for immediate entrance into business, social or professional life. New students are admitted at any time. The French and German languages may be acquired conversationally in the primary grades, and may be studied continuously to the end of the course. Latin may be studied for seven years, Greek, for five. The biological course of study affords exceptional advantages to young women, and also to all students who intend to enter the medical profession. Manual training is required in conjunction with drawing in the lower grades, and is also optional for students in all other classes. Promotions in the Academy are determined by the daily record of the student. There are no formal examinations for admission or promotion, except for students who have for any reason become deficient. The Studio affords unusual facilities for the study of drawing and paint- ing. There is an excellent training course for kindergartners. Students are admitted to college upon certificate and are fully prepared for any college or university in the country. The Adelphi College degree (B.A. or B.S.) is awarded in the name of the University of the State. This is the only classical B.A. course (unsectarian) in Brooklyn, and the only Brooklyn curriculum which offers collegiate degrees to women. Students who enter college as soon as prepared may nevertheless receive the Adelphi diploma with their respective classes. The library (containing nearly 7,000 volumes) and the reading room are open to all students. The library is the laboratory for students of history and literature. The scientific laboratories, manual training work rooms and art studio are completely equipped. Inspection is invited. All science study involves individual experiment in the laboratories. The buildings are admirably ventilated. There is a spacious gym- nasium and a completely equipped playing field. A restaurant, well managed and conveniently situated, provides luncheons that are warm and nourishing. 56 ADELPHI ACADEMY. STUDENTS’ ORGANIZATIONS. 1.
