,K ..-, 1, , s or , ' , Eeeminelie Department of Applied Economics and Sociology Although only recently have the Social Sciences received separate departmental organization at Mount Holyoke, probably no other college for women can claim to have given them a place in the curriculum so early. I-lalf a century ago a course in Po- litical Science and Political Economy was offered and in 1888 one in International Law. Another pioneer step was taken in 1896 when there appeared a course in Socialism. The present department was first organized in 1906. AMY Hiawiss, l'h.D., Proffsror B.

Department of Biblical Literature Bible study was from the first required at Mount Holyoke. Recitations were held by different teachers on Sunday afternoons or during Monday chapel periods. In I86O certain definite sections of' the Bible were prescribed regularly for each year. About 1893, as part ofthe transition from Seminary to College, came the transf'erence of required Bible to week- days, under an instructor especially trained. The first electives were offered the requirement was reduced from eight hours to six, LILLA FRANCES MORSIE, S.'l'.M., ffrxoririte Proforma' fi MISS ELLIS in 1895, and two years later B.

x. f f -, Yi o f ' E- or at Department of Geology Geology has been taught at Mount Holyoke from the first, but to Miss Cowles and Miss lfdwards belongs the credit for developing the department and making the collections what they are now. Miss Cowles taught for over thirty-live years, during a part of which time occasional lectures were given by Pro- fessor Charles Hitchcock, of Dartmouth, and field-work was conducted by Mrs. Martha K. Genthe. The collection consists, beside the minerals, of fossil casts and a large number of reptile tracks from the vicinity-one of the best, though not one of the largest collections in existence.

Department of Education The department of education was organized in 1899-1900, with courses in the history of education, philosophy of education, educational psychology, and child study, school systems, school management, and methodology. Most of the courses offered by this department are intended for all college students, whether they purpose becoming teachers or not. The courses in the theory and practice of teaching and in the study of contemporary educational problems are intended to give some degree of tech- nical preparation for teaching.

KYTYTF' as m e-e E LLLAZLQQ Department of Music During the Hrst fifty years at Mount Holyoke the training in music consisted mainly of required choral singing, in which a high standard was maintained. Not until later was any oppor- tunity for private study in instrumental or vocal music given. With the building of the chapel and the gift ofa fine organ came the increased facilities for work, until at present students may receive private instruction in piano, organ, voice, violin, violon- cello and liute, as well as in various theoretical classes. Interest in choral work has steadily increased. The choir, vested and enlarged a few years ago, is now an important factor in the Sun- day services. G MR.
