8 OLLA PODRIDA was W mm 5 H' fa M f xiii Qm xl xxx E tfllareitiy CX ff' 3 X. f7' V Wesleyan was founded in 1831, by the Methodist Episcopal Church. The college is governed by a board of trustees, elected by the alumni, the patronizing conferences and the trustees. While fostered by Methodists, the college is purely educational in spirit and motive. It is non-sectarian and non-ecclesiastical. Men of every faith are included among its students and given equal advantages. The College presents to its undergraduate students the option of three parallel courses of study, each extending through four years, named respectively the Classical Course CB.A. 7, the Latin-Scientific Course, lPh.B.Dg and the Scientific Course, fB.S. J Students who do not desire to complete any one of the foregoing courses may receive instruction in such studies as they may select, provided they prove themselves, upon examination, qualified to pursue them with advantage. The proportion of faculty to students, one to eight, admits of that intimate personal Contact between faculty and students which is the small college's greatest advantage. The total number of graduates is 2,516. The following table indi- cates what Wesleyan's alumni is doing in the world : Business and Miscellaneous . 42 per cent. Education . . . 22 per cent. Ministry 19 per cent. Lawyers . 12 per cent. Physicians . 5 per cent.
