LIBERAL ARTS The College of Liberal Arts of the University of Denver occupies its own building at University Park, just southeast of town. The attendance has steadily increased from 150 in 1900 to nearly 400 this year. ()ne very encouraging fact about all this is that the number of students entering from Denver has nearly doubled this past year. Xot only has there been an increase in attendance, but there have been constant additions to the Faculty and the courses of study. Dr. LeRossignol's department being too large was divided, leaving him Economics and Social Science, and a separate department of History and Political Science was formed with Prof. F. If. H. Roberts in charge. The students have all been captivated not only with Dr. Roberts’ original way of giving extempore lectures in class, but also with his unlimited fund of stories. Each one of these departments is now giving a much more adequate course than before. Miss Cora MacDonald, who is tilling the chair of English while Miss Etta Miller is away on a leave of absence, has conducted this department with marked success. She has added several courses in this branch and the increased attendance shows that she is well liked. Professor Spencer is hack in his place as head of the Latin department after a couple of years' absence, lie has been taking graduate work at Columbia University. and so returns even better prepared than formerly for his work. Miss Wirt, after another year's absence in Germany, is welcomed back as head of the German department. On account of her wide experience and travel Miss Wirt is now enabled to give very fine courses in this branch. We are also very glad to welcome Miss Alice Richardson as instructor in biology and Mr. James W. Lakin as instructor in mathematics. These are the principal changes in the Faculty and the courses of the College, and have only served to increase the prominence and superiority of the University of Denver. The growing tendency on the part of the College to look to the professional schools as the best place for continuing the preparation for life, and on the part of the professional schools to look to the College as the source of its best prepared recruits is making the College more and more conscious of the fact that it is a part of a still greater unity—the University—and that its usefulness is gradually receiving its due appreciation. 21
