13 ciation called The Lake Forest Art Institute, although a portion of it will be used for College purposes. Along with plans for endowments and buildings has gone one for the realization of the University idea. In 1887 graduate courses were introduced, covering to-day the helds of Philosophy, Political and Social Science, Classical Philology, French and German Philo- logy, and Biology, and leading in each case after three years' study to the degree of Ph. D. In the summer of 1887 the well-known Rush Medical College, of Chicago, became a depart- ment of the University. The control of the courses of study is in the hands of the Medi- cal Faculty and of the President of the University. The business management remains at present with the Board of Control of Rush College, but the Trustees of the University may in the future assume direct control. In 1890 the Chicago College of Dental Surgery-then in the ninth year of its existence-became in like manner a department of the University. Of this institution Dr. Truman IV. Brophy had been Dean since its establishment, and its success is due in a large measure to his exertions. In 1889 the Chicago College of Law, which had originated two years before though the efforts of Justice Bailey of the Supreme Court, and Justice Moran of the Appellate Court, became the Legal Department of the Uni- versity. ' The growth of the Literary Faculty of the University has been until recently retarded by lack of funds. Beginning in 1876 with the Chairs of Psychology and of Greek, in 1878 the Chairs of Latin, English, Modern Languages, Mathematics and Psysics were added. In 1879 the Chair of Biblical Instruction, and in 1886 that of Ethics were set off. In 1887 the Chair of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy was created, in 1889 that of Political and Social Science, and in 1891 that of Geology and Botany. The Greek Chair had been occupied hitherto by John H. Hewitt, now of Williams College, Charles R. Williams, now New York Manager of the Associated Press, Andrew C. Zenos, now of McCormick Theological Semi- nary, and Alfred Emerson, now of Cornell. The Latin Chair has been occupied hitherto by Edward P. Morris, now of Yale, Rev. A. G. Wilson, A. C. Sabin, and Francis N. Kelsey, now of the University of Michigan. The Chair of Modern Languages has been occupied hitherto by J. Adolph Schmitz, now of Washington and Jefferson College, and Mills Whit- tlesby, now of the Lawrenceville School, and the Chair of English by john J. Halsey and Spencer R. Smith. The Chair of Chemistry and Physics has been occupied by La Roy F. Griffin and Fernando Sanford, the latter now of Stanford University, and the Chair of Mathe- matics by E. P. Morris, Fred. N, Willson, now ofPrinceton, F. P. Matz, Rev. A. G. Wilson,
