fi T LFIHFIHFID Eepartment uf QEhu:atiun 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 in- tended for all college students whether they purpose to become 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 technical preparation for teaching.

Bepartmcnt nf English I. english The first catalogue gives among entrance require- ments, an acquaintance with the general principles of English Grammar, and for the three years of the Semi- nary course, English Grammar, Newman's Rhetoric and Whateley's. The catalogue of 1840-1841 has this note: Hlt is very desirable that the members of this class QSeniorj should be so well prepared for admission that they may devote more time to composition and receive more in- struction on the subject than the members of the lower classes. English has always been an entrance require- ment. Until 1896-1897 it was also required through the four years, except that for students in the scientific course, from 1893-1896, it was omitted from the Junior year. MISS STEVENS From 1896-1901 prescribed work was conhned to the first two years. In 1901-1902 the Junior requirement was restored, but with an option of courses. In 1896-1897 three teachers and one assistant gave the two required and four elective courses. The first elective was offered in 1887-1888. The current year, eighteen courses are offered by a teaching force consisting of a professor, an associate professor, four instructors, and a reader.
