In September, 1907, a new building adjoin- ing the main building on .Ioralemon Street will be ready for the use of the Packer Col- legiate Institute. Spacious luncheon rooms, an assembly hall and a parlor for the use of the alumnx, a new library and reading- room, study rooms for collegiate students, additional rooms for recitations, and an out- of-doors gymnasium are provided for in the plans. The construction is fireproof. The costly plot of ground on which the new building stands was bought and paid for by the Associate Alumnae of the Insti- tute. A deed of the property and a check for 370,000 towards the sum needed for the erection of the building have already been handed to the Trustees of the Institute by the Directors of the Associate Alumnx.

The main building of the Institute was opened for the admission of students on the oth day of November, 1854. lt stands upon the site previously occupied by the Brook- lyn Female Academy. That school had been organized by public-spirited citizens in 1845, but its career was ended by the burning of its building on the last day of December, 1852. lVlrs. Harriet L. Packer gave sixty-live thousand dollars for the erec- tion of a new building in memory of her husband. A special charter was obtained from the Legislature on the 19th day of March, 1853, incorporating the Packer Col- legiate Institute. A A The Institute gives systematic and thor- ough training through the grades of the grammar school and the high school, and overlaps two years of the usual courses at college. lts curriculum is as advanced as that of any American school below the rank of a college. 36 The Peteleer Collegiate Institute The Institute is accessible to students from all parts of the boroughs of Brooklyn and Manhattan. It stands on Brooklyn I-Ieights, half a block Westward from the Borough I-Iall. Its grounds and buildings havea frontage of two hundred and fifty feet on both .Ioralemon and LivingstonsStreets. A garden on Living- ston Street, laid out in grassfplots and Walks, shaded by large trees, is freely used by the students. , The buildings are adapted to the Wants of a thoroughly graded school.. Besides the chapel, the studios, the laboratories, the libra- ry, and the gymnasium, it has forty recitation rooms. Its halls are spacious, its ceilings are high, its main stairways rise but six inches at a step, its rooms are large and airy. Its Utis elevator is furnished With every appliance for safety. The chapel, a beautiful Gothic inte- rior, has sittings for eight hundred students. The gymnasium is one hundred feet long, and is furnished with all desirable appliances for the physical training of young Women. The lecture-rooms for classes in physics and chemistry are well equipped for the con- The Packer Collegiate Institute 37 venience of teachers and students, and lab- oratories have carefully planned modern im- provements. The furniture of study-rooms and recita- tion-rooms is arranged with regard for the health and comfort of the school. Each student has elbow-room. Her studying is done at a desk in the room of the grade to which she belongs, and when summoned to recitation she is relieved from Weariness by changing her seat. Not a chair in any room is fastened to the floor. lt is therefore possi- ble to vary the arrangement of the furniture from time to time, and to give a class the re- lief that comes from a new order of things. Apparatus for heating by indirect radia- tion and for ventilation is used in every room. With the mercury out of doors stand- ing at IOO Fahrenheit, the building is heated at 680 above zero, While the pressure on the boilers does not exceed six pounds to the square inch. The boilers are in vaults out- side the walls of the building. Half a million cubic feet of fresh air are forced through the building every hour. 38 ITM Packer Coflegiazfe fmfifufe Special Qlmantages. Attention is called to the following advan- tages offered to students atthis school: I Its location is accessible to students from all quarters of the city. a p 2 Its buildings are spacious, and are fur- nished With regard for the health of its stu- dents. , I 3 Its sanitary appointmentsare as com- lete and erfect as skillful architects can P lc h p ma e t em. . 4 Its students have the use of an elevator. 5 Its students are trained in light gym- nastics. i 6 Its students can secure Warm and Whole- some luncheon at cost. 7 It keeps Within narrow limits the num- ber of studies which a pupil may pursue at one time. ' 8' It employs only such teachers as have had experience and success, and secures those of high rank. ' 9 Every pupil is under the direct social influence of the teacher Who has charge of her gradeg in all of her studies she has in- struction from specialists. I0 Classes are subdivided so that the aver- age number of students under the teacher's instruction in recitations is fourteen. The Petefeeri Collegiate Institute 39 II The Institute is generously equipped With apparatus in the several departments of science. I2 It has a library for reference number- ing over eight thousand volumes. I3 When a student is to be prepared for college, herpreparatory course is so arranged as to relieve her from Work not required for entrance at the college of her choice. I4 The regular charges pay for instruction in Greek, Latin, German, French, drawing, elocution, and calisthenics, and include fees for material used in laboratories. I 5 There are no extm charges. g General jfiietbulis uf Eiustructiun. The method of instruction in the Primary classes is intended to train the perceptive faculty to quick and accurate observation, as the student becomes able to pursue a pro- cess of reasoning, her powers of reHection are educated in the advancing grades of the school. T As the success of all higher study depends largely upon the character of elementary in- struction, care is taken, not only in the selection of teachers for the younger classes, but also in giving Well-ordered variety of 40 The Packet' Coflegittte Institute occupation to the pupils, and in guarding against such tendencies as beset the health of mind and body in the earlier years of life at school. In the Primary classes, the study ofwords, of natural objects, and of numbers, furnishes the pupil with subjects to talk and to Write about, and exercises, both oral and written, used constantly from the beginning of her Work, develop side by side her powers of thought and of expression. By such instruc- tion pupils in the lower classes of the Insti- tute are prepared to enter upon the studies of the Academicand Collegiate departments, and there theyido their Work in physical science, mathematics, language, history, and mental science, with success greater than is attained by the majority of those pupils who enter the Institute at an advanced point in the course. y 4 i ,,c an 4.1 1 1 I' ?'f .

A pupil who understands addition and subtraction may enter the Primary depart- ment of the Institute. After passing through the successive classes of the Primary and Preparatory schools, if she is to secure a diploma from the Trustees she will enter upon one of the regular high-school courses of study. A student may choose either of two courses. Une includes four years of Latin, and the study of a modern language for at least two years and a half. A six years' course in Latin, or in a modern language, may be secured under the privilege of choos- ing among elective studies in the Collegiate department. Greek may take the place of a modern language. . The alternative course differs chiefly in the fact that advanced mathematics takes the place of the last two years of Latin. The study of Latin for two years, and of a modern language for two years and a half, is required of all candidates for graduation. 6 1 42 The Packer Collegiate fmfifufe In cases where sound educational reasons call for more flexible conditions than are of- fered by either of the two regular courses, a student of exceptional merit may have a course of study arranged for her without sac- rificing her privilege of graduation. l U Points of difference and of identity be- tween the two courses of study are shown in the following tabular view: i 'J Zz.

Under exceptional conditions a student may be assigned to more than three regular studies at a time. Unless other- wise stated, each study has daily recitation. To obtain a diploma, either the group marked PF, or that marked 'f', must be included in the work ofa student. Topics in Italics are prescribed, others are elective. A Whenever a student, for any reason, is unable to elect a desired study during the year to which such study is assigned in the catalogue, she has opportunity to make such election in the following year of her course.

The history of architecture is included in the study of the history of artg perspective, in drawing. The courses in physics, chemistry, botany, physiogra- phy, Zoology, and physiology require work in the labora- tories in addition to the work of the class-room. T The modern language selected by a regular student in her Academic course is to be studied for two years and a half 5 then it may be continued, or another modern lan- guage may be chosen, or the study of modern language may be discontinued. ffh A5 Cll First 1 it Z E i E l l , 1 I, E 4 1 l Secol L t Z E li T A B p Tltir l , I I V The Packer Collegiate Imlilufo 45 Qllcahzmic Qbepartment.

The English course of the Institute begins with the ele- mentary lessons of the Primary school, and is continued to the end of the Senior year. From the first it aims to stimulate originality, to develop the observation of the student, to help her in expressing her thoughts in fitting language, and to cultivate in her a taste for intelligent reading. I When a student is not pursuing any of the specialcourses in rhetoric and literature which are offered at the Institute, she is re- quired each year afterher entrance into the Preparatory Department to Write six essays, and to attend, Weekly, two lessons devoted to the principles and practiceof English composition and the appreciative reading of literature. ' 'iSpecia1 courses in grammar, rhetoric, and literature m-QV be noted OH schedules of studies, pages 45-54, 83, 88. 56 The Packer Collegiate Institute The library method with reference Work is used, and note-books and essays receive care- ful criticism in frequent personal interviews, ln the Third Academic grade, the rhetor- ical work consists of a study of the narrative, with special drill on sentence-structure and punctuation. A study of description and letter-Writing follows in the Second grade, with drill on diction and simple prosody. In the First Academic grade, a semester of work in elementary rhetoric, with emphasis upon the paragraph, is required. The lit- erature for the Third grade consists of se- lections from mediaeval material-Malory, Tennyson, St. Francis of Assisi, Scott, the ballads of the people-and also The Mer- ehaiit W' Venice. T ln the Second grade, the literature read illustrates both prose and poetry and presents the idea of historical change, it includes a play by Shakespeare, Comiis, selections from Palgrave's Golden Treasury, Pilgrim's Progress, The Sir Roger a'e Cofverley Papers, and A Tale qv Two Cities. The literature of the First grade is deter- mined largely by college requirements for general reading. The Packer Collegiate Imiifufe a 57 In the lowest grade of the Collegiate de- partment, the Work in English composition consists of exercises in the use of the library, the keeping of a tabulated note-book, some literary criticism, and drill on the Word and the sentence. The Work in literature, a re- quired course, is the history of English lit- erature from its sources through the age of Pope, with special study of Beewuf and se- lections from Chaucer, Spenser, Shakespeare, Bacon, Milton, and Pope. The students preparing for college do not take the regular Work of this grade, but are prepared in a special class to meet the col- lege requirements. In the Second Collegiate grade, a course in advanced rhetoric is required, illustrated by selections from modern prose, and an elective course, in literature is oH ered, treat- ing of the Romantic movement from Thom- son to Keats. it ' The rhetorical Work for the Senior year comprises a study of the essay as a form of lighter literature, and Writing based on thiS study and on current topics. Two elective coprses in literature are given: one, a study 58 The Petefrer Collegiate Institute of Victorian thought in the prose of Carlyle, Ruskin, Darwin, Newman, Arnold, Pater, and the great novelists 3' the other, a comparison ofthe Age of Elizabeth with the Age of Victoria,-a study of Spenser, Shalcespearey Tennyson, and Browning. LATIN AND GREEx.- The course in Latin, beginningiwith the Third Academic grade, may be followed, as German or French may be followed, through six years of uninter- rupted study. The 'Roman pronunciation is used. F or the first two years Latin must be pursued by every member of a regular course. The work of the fifth and sixth years is optional. In the two years of required Latin the pupil acquires the elements of grammar, reads several books of Cxsar, or an equiva- lent, and begins prose composition. Stress is laid upon the mastery of the fundamental principles of language, and the acquirement of accurate habits of thought and expres- sion. y In the highest Academic and lowest Col- legiate grades, orations of Cicero and P3113 The Packer Collegiate Institute 59 of Vergil are read and prose composition is completed. Suitable provision is made for those Who Wish to fulfill the requirements for admission to the several colleges. Greek' may be substituted for a modern languagefk The curriculum in the main cor- responds to the preparatory and the first twoiyears of college Greek. 1 . In the last two years of the classical course the character of the Work and the authors read may vary from time to time, -accord- ing to the special needs or taste of those who Wish to complete the six years' course. More attention will be given to literary or archaeological topics than to the purely lin- guistic aspects of the study. Forthis pur- pose the Institute has a choice collection of lantern slides, photographs, casts, and other material for illustrating the classics--a col- lection which is receiving frequent additions. FRENCH AND GERMAN.-- French and Ger- man are taught throughout the course of study. The natural method is used in teach- ing the classes of the Primary department, ' See page 43. 9- , ' 60 T ite Packer Collegiate Institute where it secures excellent results in training pupils to good pronunciation. Charts and books are used, so that the eye, as Well as the ear, may be under training. In the Second and Third grades of the Preparatory department, students Who are approved in their English studies are allowed to enter classes in French or German. The instruction is given on three days inthe Week. In the middle of the First Prepara- tory grade, the regular study of French or German is begun, With daily recitations. These lessons in Modern Language for students of the Preparatory grades are of significant value. They give the mental training which no study save that of Latin offers. P At the middle of the Third Academic grade French or German is chosen by every student not already assigned to the study of Modern Language in the First Preparatory department, and the study is continued with daily recitations at least two years and a half befbre another modern language may be be- gun. The aim of this course is to enable the student to acquire thorough grammatical l I 1 The Packer Collegiate Institute 61 knowledge, and ability to use it in composi- tion, reading at sight, and conversation. In the advanced Work in French the Classical Period is studied. Plays of Cor- neille and Racine and selections from other authors are critically read, and the history of France in the seventeenth century is also carefully considered. To studentsnwish- ing to continue the study of French litera- ture, various courses are ioH'ered,- the eigh- teenth century and its relation to the French Revolution, the drama and lyric poetry of the Restoration, philosophy in France from Cousin to Renang the earlier periods of literature, including readings from Mon- taigne. r , In the German course the reading of clas- sics is begun in the fourth semester, and continues for four years, so that Works of Lessing, Schiller, Goethe, Heine, Freytag, as Well as those of more recent Writers, are familiar to a student Who elects German throughout her course. ln, the fifth and sixth semesters this critical reading is sup- plemented by an introduction to the history of German literature. In the seventh semes- tx ,-2, 62 The Pezeker Collegiate Institute, ter the study of the Second Classical Period is begun, and iscontinued through the eighth semester. The study of the romantic school of poetry and of the modern dramatists fol- lows. Courses which include the more diffi- cult study of the national epics, court epics, the literature of the time of the Reformation, or of the present time, are open to election by those students who continue the study of German to the end of the Senior year. jiilatbsmattus. In the lowest grade theistudent begins arithmetic with oral instruction and object- teaching. The study is carried through the Primary and Preparatory grades, oral instruc- tion gradually giving way to the use of a text- book, until the subject is completed at the middle of the highest Preparatory year. Stu- dents who are released from arithmetic at this point begin the study of Latin, others give a half year's review to arithmetic. Thestudy of mathematics is suspended during the first semester of the lowest grade of the Academic department. Many students The Packer Cottegtttte Institute 63 enter that grade from other schools, having had no instruction in elementary science, or in a modern language. They have been ac- customed to daily drill in arithmetic, and have come to think that their education de- pends chieliy upon mathematical study. It is advisable for such students to break the routine, and to begin Work in languages, in Zoology, in English history, and in English composition? In the second semester of the Third Aca- demic grade the study of algebra is begun, and the subject is continued for a year. In the lirst three terms of the First Aca- demic grade the Whole of plane geometry is taught. Beside learning the contents of the text-book, the students are required to Work out numerous original demonstrations. All regular students are assigned to the review of general principles in arithmetic, meeting the teacher daily during the fourth term of the First Academic grade. Tllhus far the study of mathematics is pre- scribed for all. It may be discontinued at point by those who Wish to take an if SCC foot this -HOtC, page 45 . 64 The Parker Coflegivzie Imfifule extended course in Latin. Those Who elect the remainder of the mathematical course, resume the study in the first semester of the Third Collegiate grade, taking' up solid geometry and advanced algebra. During the first half of the Second Collegiate grade plane and spherical trigonometry, with appli- cations, are studied. Conic sections, analyti- cally treated, is assigned to the second semes- ter of the Second Collegiate grade. In the Second Collegiate grade and in the Senior year the study of physics With labora- tory practice is included in the mathematical course, and calculus is elective. T Dietary. The systematic course in history begins in the First Preparatory grade With the study of the United States. English history is re- quired in the Third Academic grade, and the history of mediaeval and modern Europe, with special reference to France and Ger- many, comes at a later point. One year in the Collegiate department is devoted to an- cient history, including, the study of the 1- A The Packer Collegiate ifnslifufe 65 East, Greece, and Rome. There are also electives in advanced history of England and the United States. To the Seniors is oH'ered a Weekly course of lectures on the history of the Hebrew people. r Much historical information is imparted in the Primary and Preparatory grades, as Well as in the departments of the languages and literature. Interest in questions of the day is encouraged in all the classes, and the equipment of books, maps, photographs, and lantern slides is brought up to modern stan- dards.

Students are fitted in the Preparatory de- partment of the school for the courses of study set forth in the preceding pages. Its work is fundamental in arithmetic, gram- mar, and geography. y This department has four graded classes, and each in its own room is underthe charge of its own teacher. F our years are needed for the work of these grades. The history of the United States is studied. Lessons are given in a modern language. ln the three higher Preparatory grades talks on art, illustrated by lantern slides, are given once in two weeks. An illustrated lesson, given once a week in one of the natural sciences, is intended to A quicken interest in the world about us, and to lay a foundation for later scientific study by the formation of habits of observation and reasoning. The students of this department have II . C92 The Packer Collegiate Imfiiufe regular exercises in composition, in reading, and in writing. They also have lessons twiee a week in drawing. Special attention is given to spelling and composition, and there are oral lessons in literature. y Pupils of the First Preparatory grade who have attained to clear understanding of the requirements in arithmetic, discontinue that study at the close of' the first semester and are allowed to begin the study of Latin, while those who find the arithmetic especially diffi- cult have the advantage of an extra half year's drill. ln this grade emphasis is placed upon work in English grammar. ln the earlier part of' the year, the structure of the sentence and the relation of its parts are considered with care, but with little regard for technical names. Later, essential terms are given, and there is thorough study of the adverbial con- structions, of the noun, the verb, and the participle, with special preparation for work in Latin.
