HIE SCHOOL OF ARTS was for many years the entire University, so that, dignified by a sense of its age, it justifiably feels itself a trifle the superior of the other schools, which, together with it, form the University of Kan- sas, but which are in reality only off-shoots of the Academic Department. When ' Kansas University was established in 1863 under that aspiring title, the fact which the expression stood for was nothing more than a preparatory school, offering about the same courses that a city high school gives at the present time. By 1867 two of the students had made sufficient progress to justify their entrance upon the collegiate work, and with these two enrolled the Collegiate Department came into existence. The early history of the School of Arts was one of slow, but steady growth. The number of students increased from term to term, and the need of professional courses, where young men could acquire professional education without leaving the State, soon came to be felt. As a result, the School of Law was established in 1878; but for a long time it was regarded more as a department of the Arts Course than as a separate school. The attendance continued to increase, and again the demand was made for more professional schools. The time was near at hand when the University of Kansas was to become in reality what it had long been in name. In 1891 the preparatory course was discontinued, and the Schools of Phar- macy, of Engineering, and of Fine Arts were created. The Graduate School was established in 1896 and the School of Medicine in 1899. In 1903 the Summer School was organized. The Arts School may rightly be considered the foster mother of all these schools. After the creation of these various divisions each was put under the super- vision of a dean, and Professor D. H. Robinson was the first to fill that position in the School of Arts. At his death, in 1895, he was succeeded by Professor E. Miller, who resigned in favor of Professor Templin, the present incumbent, in 1903. The first year after the separation of the schools the number of arts students was 264, of whom 70 were women; the next year the number increased to 283, but of these only 191 were men, while the women numbered 22 more than in the the previous year. At the present time the School of Arts numbers 610 students, of which number 338 are women and 272 men. This varying proportion is, of course, natural,
