CAP AND GONVN Department of Arts, Literature and Science HE first annual register of the University lists 27 departments and a faculty of 101 members, including some half dozen -docents. At present there are 34 recognized departments in the colleges and 314 instructors. The .addition of new departments has in most instances been accomplished by a division of older departments. For example, Philosophy originally included both Psychology and Edu- cation. Geography was separated from Geology. Household Administration was similarly split off from the Department of Sociology, Palentology from Zoology.. On the other hand, one of the original has disappeared. Neurology was in 1905 combined with the department of Anatomy. In 1901 the College of Commerce and Administra- tion was established. In the earlier years of its existence it was essentially an organi- zation inside the larger organization of the undergraduate colleges, making use of the courses which were primarily given for students in Arts, Literature and Science. At the resent tim th 't t' ' ' p e e S1 ua ion is somewhat different, and reference may be made to the statement by the dean of that college elswhere in this volume. Although there have been many changes of administrative organization, which it is perlhaps unproiitable to detail, the essential distinction of the Junior from the Senior Colleges has been maintained from the Iirst. The titles first used for these two divisions of the University were respectively the Academic Colle es and th U ' g e niver- sity Colleges. These were changed in 1896 to the titles now employed. At the outset ther h d d ' ' e was a ea ean of the colleges and under 'him a dean for the College of Liberal Arts, one for the College of Literature, one for the College of Science, and two 'deans of women. In 1894 the head deanship of the colleges was abolished and in its stead was established a dean of the Faculties of Arts, Literature, and Science. Slightly prior to this. readjustment the separate deanships of the three colle es of A t L't g r s, 1 era- ture and Science were done away with, and in their stead one dean was appointed in charge of the Academic Coll 'th ' ' eges, wi assistant deans, and one in charge of the University Colleges. This organization still obtains, although in the actual adminis- tration of students there is now no transfer at the end of the Junior Colleges to the jurisdiction of a Senior College dean. Each student is continuously under the admin- istiative supeivision of one dean unless he transfers his candidacy from one of the bachelor's degrees to another. ' From the beginning the colleges have been the most largely attended of any of the single divisions of the University. The register for 1892-93 shows 321 students in attendance, while that of 1914-15 shows 3,177. Not only is the work of the colleges of dominating lmportance from this numerical point of view, but by common consent the graduate and professional work finds in it an indispensable foundation without which it could not be successfully conducted. 30
