nized the three departments — Law, Medical and Academic — of the University and granted $ 1 0,000 annually until 1 884, when the Administrators of the Tulane Edu- cational Fund assumed the financial obligation of the state. During the course of three decades subsequent to 1 884, the Tulane University of Louisiana has reached its present proportions, when it comprises the Graduate Department, the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Technology, the Teachers ' College, the H. Sophie Newcomb Memorial College for Young Women, the Law Department, the Departments of Medi- cine, Pharmacy and Dentistry, and the Post-Graduate Medical Department. The Uni- versity is also the possessor of a stadium and capacious grandstand, built with funds donated largely by the New Orleans Progressive Union, and of a large and thoroughly modern gymnasium. As we review the steady progress of Tulane University, we feel that Mr. Tulane ' s wish, as expressed in the close of his letter has been granted. His letter ended: With devout gratitude to our Heavenly Father for enabling us to form these plans, and invoking His divine blessings upon you (the Tulane Administrators) and your counsels (10)
