LONG r I HIS SCHOOL, incorporated in 1886 as the Illinois College of Pharmacy became a department of the ' ' University the same year. In 1891 the name was changed to the School of Pharmacy of North- 1, western University. It is a member of the American Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties and its l graduates are recognized in all states, in which graduation from a school of pharmacy is necessary to obtain l, p, ' license to practice. g l: ' The school's work is carried on in the University buildings on Dearborn Street between 24th and i 1 Q 25th Streets, Chicago. The rooms occupied include five large laboratories, two lecture rooms, a balance 2, room, library and two rooms for students. l The present sees this department commanding the highest respect of professional men and true , pharmacists and chemists as being, not only the best equipped, but giving probably the finest of phar- ,l l maceutical education in the west and equaling any school in the country. Such men as Dr. Long, the l late Dr. Olberg, Professor Miner, and Dr. Gordin have led the Way and placed the school in the enviable , g K position it holds. Educational requirements, being stricter, have raised the graduate far above the l T average standard in pharmacy. A Pharmaceutical chemist degree is given also but requires three years study and fits the graduate for the expert work needed in Food and Drug inspection and in manufactur- S l l ing anddwholesale establishment. jl l ,, The faculty, headed by Dr. Long, recognized as one of the pioneers and great lights in chemistry in this country, is building up for the future a greater school of pharmacy. New courses are being added 3 ' to fit the immense upward trend of modern chemistry, research work of the highest value is being wrought , i' and-thewfair fame of the department and its loyalty to the University will never be diminished. , l ill ll f page thirty-three nf lliia' f - P P P a this 5-'rf l l ai a ii in W e.

CUMNOCK HE SCHOOL OF ORATORY has had thirty-eight years of growth and development. Like many Z other departments this school has passed through its period of trial, and has slowly won the favor of university oflicials, and of the educational world as a necessary and useful agency in education. The Northwestern School of Oratory is, perhaps, the only school of its kind that has originated and developed in connection with a great institution of learning. Its founder and director has been for many years a college officer. On its staff of instruction are college men and women of long teaching experience. The school began its Work in 1878, graduating its first class in 1881. Since that date approximately twelve hundred students have received its diploma. The school occupies its own building, Anna May Swift Hall, designed with special reference to the needs of the three departments, Public Speaking, English Literature, and Physical Training. This beautiful structure stands just east of the main hall of the University and on the shore of Lake Michigan. On the ground floor is a modern gymnasium, well equipped in every way. On the Brst floor are the school offices, an auditoritun, seating four hundred and fifty people, and the school libraries. On the second and third floors are recitation rooms, teaching studios, and sixteen practice rooms, exclusively set aside for the use of the students. page thirtyetwo l 'L if i 1 to cc,, . ,t Y5?'.'

GILMORE ITH the opening of the present session, Northwestern University Dental School made the most ? radical change in its teaching methods that has ever been undertaken by any dental school and the results promise to be decidedly beneficial and far-reaching. The new method is known as the lecture-recitation plan, and in order that it might be put in operation the building has been generally remodeled. Under the new plan each course consists of a lecture to the entire class by the head of the department, followed by three recitations in sections g then another lecture followed by three recitations Y and so on. For the recitations the class is divided into six sections. The purpose of the change is to increase the effectiveness of the teaching. This is accomplished by limiting the number of lectures to full classes and dividing each class into sections for recitations and laboratory courses. As a concrete example of the efliciency of the new plan in the laboratories, it may be cited that the members of the present freshman class are accomplishing work of the same amount and grade in both operative and prosthetic technlc laboratories, spending six hours per week in each, as did former classes with nine h . . . . . . ours per week. A new feature in the clinical teaching this year is the introduction of clinic walks which correspond to the hospital walks and bedside clinics for medical students. page thu ty four
