4. The said Trustees shall elect a Ti·easurer, who shall give bond, with approved security, payable to said College, conditioned faithfully to discharge the duties of his office, and on failure so to do he may be proceeded against, by motion upon ten days' notice, before the Circuit or Hustings Court of the city of Richmond.

7. All rights, claims, privileges, and appurtenances now belonging or any wise pertaining to "the Trustees of Richmond College," as heretofore incorporated by act of the General Assembly, passed March 4, 1840, are hereby transfened to "Richmond College."
II. This act shall be in force from its passage.
The Trustees of Richmond CoHcge have abundant c:mse for reJOlCing. The College year, in the increased patronage, in the devoted service of the Faculty, in the excel l ent order and in the signally fine progress of the students, has been almost unequalled in the history of the institution. 1\.hile there have been no large gifts for the _ College during the pa,,t year, it is gratifying to report that those who subscribed on the $25,000 offer of the American Baptist Education Society are showing the higlrnst sense of honor and faithfulness in redeeming their bond ,s as they become due. A hurtful report went abroad during the past year that the $75,000 which it was necessar;v to raise in order to ;;ecure Mr. RockefeJJ.er's offer had really never been secured. The rumor was absolutely without foundation, and gave needless alarm to some friends of the College. Their subscription list is trustworthy in the fullest measure. It is possible that by reason of death or misfortune, or exceptional cases of forgetfulness, a few of these bonds may not be redeemed, but it will please the friends of Richmond College to know that any shrinkage that may unavoidably occur will be carefully looked after. Gifts may be made by our liberal-minded people with a view of guarding against any possible dl'ficiency that may occur hereafter.
It may be well to remind the public that the mo,·cment to endow the Greek chair in honor of H. H. Harris, the late eminent professor of Greek in Richmond Collge, has not yet been brought to completion. A handsome sum for that purpose is in hand, but it is by no means sufficient. Donations for this memorial will be gladly accepted.
It i,, to be regretted that our College is still without a Depart;nent of Biology. The money for the endowment and equipment of such a department should not long be Jacking.
The constituency of Richmond College must understand that fees for higher education can never pay the expenses of instruction. It is only the endowed college that can girn higher education, and the efficiency of this work must al ways be in proportion to the income from the endowment. Our College ha,s a scholarly and efficient corps of teachers, but they are not receiving a support worthy of their
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
gifts or services. The College needs more endowment, and its friends should appreciate the urgency of this necessity.
Perhaps the most notable feature of our •educational work in the State during the past year has been a greatly awakened sentiment in favor of academies. The CoHege has determined to establi;;h an Academy Fund. This money, as it is r,eceived, will be invested, and the income will be devoted to the equipment of such academies as are properly related to Richmond College. It is understood that the rep· resentatives of the ColJ.ege will encourage the establishment of academies at suitable plaoes and under proper conditions, and that they will also lend their influence and encouragement to these secondaTy schools in their efforts to secure building1s and equipments sufficient for their work. The secondary school is indispensable, in the present educational condition of Virginia, to the highest prosperity of the College.
The College is fortunate in having some money which, as an Aid Fund, is us,ed in assisting worthy young men in their education. Some of this money is in the form of scholarships, .which gives young men free tuition in whole or in part, and some of the money is in the o,hape of donations by which needy young men are helped to pay board. These funds, the gifts of great-hearted people, are doing their beneficent work here from year to year. At the last meeting of the Trustees it was resolved that, wherever practicable, scholarships should be secured in the leading cities of our State to be offered to the best graduat •es in the high schools of those cities. Friends of the College in these cities have an opportunity to render great service to this institution by helping to establish these scholarships.
Rev. W. E. Hatcher, D. D., LL D., President of the Trustees, is now engaged in the work of increa;sing the College endowment funds, and will gladly welcome the aid of alumni and of other friends of education. His office is at Richmond College, and he cordially invites correspondence.
Never in the history of the world has there been such enthusiasm in favor of higher education as now prevails among the American people. There is also an increasing dispooition among public-spirited people to make their gifts while they live. It is not wonderful that this should be the case The fluctuations of fortune are many, and it is a sign of thougthfulness for people to give their money while they have it and lest they should lose it. :Moreover, there is intrinsic joy in doing our own giving and in seeing our gifts accomplish their good work while we live. There is a peculiar contagion and inspiration in the gifts of the living. They are especially effective in moving others to generosity. There is also additional motive for giving our money to Christian education , and this is the di,stinct type of work in its essence and spirit which Richmond College is pledged to do. The quick gift is the self-doubling gift But we know well that it i,s not eo1wenient for all to make large gifts during their lifetime. They cannot take their capital from their business without crippling their living. At the same time their hearts burn with large desires and they cherish the thought that as they come to the end of life they will devote their substance entirely, or in part, to Christian education. There are many names which the friends of Richmond College always utt€r with gratitude and aff.cction-tlwse who in dying remembered the College and gave of their fortune for its upbuilding. Their names are forever identified with the College, and will not be forgotten. Let not the trustees of God ' s gifts forget to handle them carefully for the good of humanity l'ncl for the glory of God.

Besides the Proficiencies and Diplomas mentioned above, there were awarded at Commencement 630 Certificates of Distinction to students who had passed satisfactory examinations in Sub-Junior, Junior, and Intermediate dasses.
Richmond College undertakes to provide instruction as broad and thorough as can be had in any purely secular institution , and, in addition, to surround the student with influences most conducive to the development of Christian charact er Its tests of scholarship are rigid and the stan dard of graduation is unusually high, while the physical, ~c i al , and religiou s welfare of its students is regarded as no l ess imp ort ant .
T he founders of the College showed rare wisdom and foresight in selecting a location for their institution. Richmond is not only the capital of Virginia, but is the best known city i n the South , and one of the historic cities of the world. End uring memorials of American heroes constantly teach lessons of patriotism and inspire the young with noble ideals. The bu sy city , with its varied manufactories and extensive commer ce, reminds the student that the modern scholar must be pr actical as well as learned.
R ichmond is also a city of religious influences, and its abl e and eloquent pulpit is an efficient aid to culture. The temptations to young men away from home are but little great er than in a village, and are counteracted by better police regulations and by the wholesome moral tone of an exceptionally religious city. Life on the campus is remarkably free from temptation. In no other community of similar si ze, except at somt,J other Christian colleges, will there be found so large a proportion of active Christians, or such strong and pervasive moral and religious influences .
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
Richmond lies midway between the severe cold of the North and the relaxing heat of the South. The nine months of the scholastic year have few days either too cold or too hot for comfort in studying or in outdoor exercise. By its elevation-on hills opposite the falls of the J ames----ithe city is largely free from the malaria of tidewater and also from the pulmonary and enteric diseases of th e mountain region. For thirty years there have been but few serious cases of sickness-none that could be ascribed to local causes.
The College buildings stand in a beautiful park of thirteen acres, situated in the western and most elevated part of the city. This is the residence section, and abounds in homes of wealth and culture. These natural advantages have been supplemented by municipal improvements, including gas and E'lectric lights, a water supply, and a thorough system of drainage. The sanitary arrangements are first-class in every respect . Thus health, comfort, and means of recreation in open-air exercises, with sufficient seclusion to promote study, have been provided for and will receive constant attention.
'l'he main building stands near the middle of the campus, and from it the surface slopes gently down on every side to the encompassing streets. The north wing, 46x104 feet, is devoted mainly to dormitories, 18x14 feet, high pitched, well lighted, and ventilated by open fireplaces. The center building, 110x42 feet, contains on first floor a chapel with seating capacity of eight hundred; on second floor, lecture -rooms, well furnished with blackboards, maps, charts, and other appliances; and on the third floor three handsomely furnished halls, 30x40 feet, for the College societies. The south wing contains a Library Hall dedicated to the memory of Dr. J. B. Jeter, and on the second floor a spacious and elegantly furnished Museum and Art Gallery, a me-
morial to J ames 'l' hom as, Jr. All these public halls are heated by steam
Directly in the rear or the main building is a Dinin g H a ll , with ncecHul conveniences, and a Gymnasium and BathRoom under the same rooL On one side of this, and in the same lin e, making a row parallel to Lombardy street, is a cottage for st ud ents, with rooms arranged in pairs, study, and chamber, each 9xlJ; al~o hro residences o_f professors.
On the other siclc are three such residences. Thus the students arc brought all the time within the personal influence of at least five pro:fcssors and their Camilies, and the social, religious, and literary life of the College is very grcatl:v promoted.
On oYembcr 17, 1899, hro new buildings were opened. 'l'hec;c lrnildings arc known as Science H all and Memorial Hall. The former cost, with equipment, thirty thousaml dollars; the latter twenty thousand dollars. Both are built o_fpressed bri ck, with granite trimmings.
Science Hall measures 120x5 1 feet, and is three stories abore a basement. The well -lighted basement contains boilers for heating three buildin gs with steam, and al so shop s and appa r at u s rooms. The twent y-seven rooms above the bascnwnt arc all devoted to instruction in the natural sciences.
On tlic fir st floor are thre e laboratories for chemistry, a l ecture hall, a librar y-room , a balance-room, profe ssor's office, and two suppl:v rooms for chemicals and apparatus. The firRt year laboratory accommodate s fifty students at one time . The second :vcar laborator y ha s desks for b ·enty-four. The lectur e-room has terraced scats arranged in semi -circles, with places for one lrnndrcd and twcnt y-fil·e :-tuclents.
The arrangements in th e clcpartmcnt of physics are similar to those made for chemistry, each school occupying an
RICIUiOND COLLEGE.
entire floor. Rooms are provided on the third floor for instruction in biology. All lecture-rooms and laboratories are ventilated by the most improved system. '1 1 he entire building is supplied in every part with water, gas, and electricity. No trouble has been spared to make this hall one of the best of modern buildings for the purpose of teaching laboratory sciences.
Memorial Hall was erected to furnish lodgings for students and also to commemorate the li,es and deeds of Virginia Baptists who have worthily contended for the principles of the denomination. Besides rooms named for individuals, both men and women, the Hall contains a spacious fire-proof room with memorial windows, in special remembrance of those heroic preachers who suffered during the struggle for religious liberty in Virginia. The room has been placed in charge of the Virginia Baptist Historical Society.
The building contains lo clgings for seventy students. It is heated by steam and furnished with tub and shower baths.
The College is composed of nine academic schools, or departments, and the professional school of Law. Instruction is also given in Biblical Literature and Physical Culture. The Faculty consists of a president and nine professors, each responsible for the efficient conduct of his own school. The president has general oversight and direction of the discipline of the College, but may refer to the Faculty cases calling for serious penalty.
The system of schools has many advantages. Among them the following deserve attention: The professor feels the full force both of individual duty and personal ambition; the course of instruction can readily be enlarged or altered to adapt it to the progress of science and to the varying wants
of the times; the student, whose aims or preparation require, can select a course suited to his peculiar case; he can enter, in any department of study, the classes for which he is prepared, and deficiency in one branch does not retard him in another; students are not divided into fixed classes and grades, but all stand on a footing of social equality, and mingle freely with one another; the system favors the utmost thoroughness of culture, and the requirements fixed for graduation lend unity to the whole; the degrees being awarded to fewer persons than under a curriculum, are therefore of more value; and every good student, whether he takes a degree or not, receives a testimonial to his success in the sbape of Certificates or School Diplomas.
The deportment of a Christian gentleman is the standard -to 11·hichevery student is expected to conform. All appropriate means are used to develop and confirm a sense of personal honor and sacred regard for truth, as upon these rests the best reliance for good conduct. A few plain and reasonable rules are prescribed, and each matriculate must pledge himself to obey them. The following regulations are now in force:
I. Each student shall attend punctually every lecture, recitation, and examination held in the classes of which he is a member, and shall furnish at the specified times the written exercises appointed for such classes. If a student is absent or tardy, he shall, at the first opportunity thereafter, offer explanation of sl1ch absence or tardiness to the Professor in charge.
IL The President will assign students to rooms. Occupants will be held responsible for the good order of their rooms, as well as for any damage or defacement they may sustain. No person, other than an officer of the College,
RICHMOND
COLLEGE.
has any right to enter a lodging except upon invitation of the occupants. Changes from one room to another may be allowed by the President, but must not be made without his previous consent. Residents in any Dormitory will be charged pro rata for all damages to the building not individually accounted for. All students occupying rooms on the campus are required to attend the conference of professors and students, held every 1Vednesday morning throughout the session, 8 :40 to 9 A. JU.
III. A resident student desiring to lcaYe the premises during the hours when, by the Schedule of Recitations, he should be in his class, shall get permission from the President. Any student desiring to be absent from College shall get the President's permit in writing and exhibit it to each of his Professors.
IV. Students shall at all times carefully abstain from unnecessary noise, particularly in the College buildings, and from everything likely to prevent study on the part of others. Loafing in the rooms of other students during the hours appropriated to study is especially forbidden. Games and all forms of playing on the College Campus are forbidden except from 2 P. M. to 8 P. III., and on Saturdays from 12 M. to 8 P. lVL
V. The Faculty regards hazing as a serious offense against College order. All forms of hazing are strictly forbidden.
VI. If a student destroy, deface, or in any way damage College property, or aid and abet others in so doing, he shall, within twenty-four hours, report the fact to the President in writing, and pay (to the Treasurer) the necessary cost of repairs; otherwise double that amount will be charged against his contingent deposit, which must be renewed whenever exhausted by such charges. Playing ball in the buildings and throwing water from the windows or porches are strictly prohibited.
GEXEIUL ST.ITEillEXTS.
YII. X o student shall bring upon the premises or keep in his possession any playing carcls, intoxicating liquors, dogs, or deadly "·capons.
YIJI. X o Clubs or Societies shall be formecl unless the Faculty, on application made, approve the clesign of such Association, the rules by ,rhich it proposes to be governed, and the hours of meeting.
]n the obsc•rrnnce of these rules ancl in all matters not specially mcntionccl, the deportment of a gentleman and a stnclcnt i, the !'tanc:arcl to which eYcry one is expected to conform. His sen~c o[ honor is the main reliance, ancl his ,rorcl in matters touching his own conduct will be callecl for at the discretion of the rresiclent.
\\"henewr the President leams that a student is not impro1ing his time, or is liYing disorclerly, he first a1hises ancl admonishes the young man before any penalty is imposed, except in grai;e o:f1'enses. It is neither the desire nor the purpose of the authorities to disgrace any student, bl1t every one must liYe a pure, orderly ancl busy life, or ,rithdraw from the College. Idling, card playing, and all other forms of dissipation arc strongly conclernncd by the authorities, and students who persist in these things ,rill be disciplincc1 and may be dismissed.
The College is neither a reform school nor a prirnn, but an institution of learning, and the opportunities it offers for a sound Cliristian education at moderate cost are to be looked upon as high privileges, in return for which those who attend upon its instruction are under positive obligation to make the most of the advantages placed at their disposal by the munificence of its founders and benefactors. The President ancl members of the Faculty hold themselves at all times ready to assist and encourage those young men wbo are earnest in their search after knowledge; but if there
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
be any in whom the spirit of earnestness does not exist, or in whom it cannot be inculcated, they are hereby warned that Richmond College is not the place for them. It is gratifying to add that, during the session 1902-'03, the behavior of students was so excellent that the Faculty was required to act upon only one case of discipline.
Students have easy access to all the advantages afforded by the various city churches with their Bible classes and Sunday-schools. Those who are professors of religion may bring with them letters of commendation, and without severing their ecclesiastical connections at home, attach themselves while here to some church, so as to have a church home, with the sympathy and care of a pastor. The daily duties of the College are opened with brief devotional exercises, conducted by the President and attended by professors. Prayer-meetings, conducted by the students themselves, are held twice or oftener every week. Attendance on religious exercises is entirely voluntary. All students resident in college buildings are expected to attend a "Wednesday Conference" of professors and students, held every Wednesday at S :40 A. l\f. 'l'his conference is generally opened or closed with brief reli gious exercises. 'l'he object of the conference is to promote the social and moral well-being of the college comm.unity.

Tl1c course o E study, embracing four years, is indicated by the text-books used in the several classes. Students entering the school will be classed according to their preparation. For the lowest class there is requirecl such acquaintance with the clements of Latin grammar as will enable one to begin to translate with profit.
The Sun -J ux101: ancl Jcxrnu Classes are persistently drilled in the form s and the syntax of the language, with due attention i.o quantity. The lXTEmIEDIATE and SENIOR Classes contim 1c to give needful attention to grammatica l principles, while they arc required to attain a good vocabulary and to imbibe the spirit of Latin literature by an extcnsi 1c course of reading, somewhat varied from year to year. In all the classes the student's pTOgress is tested, and his powers of analysis and composition are cultivated by written exercises in rendering English into Latin and Latin inio English. '!'he disciplinary power and cultural value of the study of Latin are equally emphasized.

cient to enable him to read French and German literature with understanding and pleasure; secondarily, to teach him tospeak these languages, and to understand them when spoken. In junior classes, modern authors are read, and language is taught as an art. In senior classes, more attention is paid to the classics and to the scientific study of language structure. Much time is devoted to the history of literature. Frequent essays are required.
The course is varied from year to year in order that advantage may be taken of the latest and best helps in this department of study. The following text -books will be used during the session 1903-4.

Examination requirements in the senior course place the work known as "Parallel" on an equal footing with classwork. Students often find it advantageous to do all or a part of this work during the summer vacation.
Applicants for admission to senior classes are expected to · have completed the full equivalent of the College junior courses . Knowledge of grammatical forms and familiarity with irregular verbs will be required. Previous drill in conversation is also very desirable.
Professor Chandler.
The object of this school is to give the student a mastery of spoken and written English, to acquaint him with gooct literature, and to introduce him to the study of philology. To this end the work is divided into four classes:
I. JUNIOR CLASs.-This class studies carefully English Grammar and the outlines of Rhetoric. A brief course in the history of English Literature will also be introduced, and one theme a week will be required.
II. INTERMEDIATECu.ss.-This class continues the study of the history of English Literature, and takes up the main outlines of American Literature. Composition ,rnrk will be continued, and a brief course will be given in Old English.
III. SENIOR CLA.Ss.-L~i.NGUAGE.-This class will study in greater detail Old English and its development into Modern English. Comparative philology will receive considerable · attention; therefore some knowledge of French, German, Latin, and Greek is desirable.
IV. SENIORCLASS-LITERATURE.-The "laboratory" method will be used in this class. The works of three writers will be studied, and much collateral reading will be assigned. From year to year this class will be changed.

'l'his school offers a course of pure Mathematics extending over four years. The work of the lowest class pre-suppo:,es a thoroug h knowled ge of Arithmetic and of E l ementary _\Jgcbra through simple Equations.
'l'he aim of the course is not so much to make specialists of a few enthusiastic students as to give thorough mental di scipline to the many. It is intended to increase the student's power of independent, earnest, hon est inv estigation; to encourage the habit of stating with clearness and exactness hi.s own convictions, and of giving logically his reason s for th e m. Throughout the entire course numerous exercises and original problems are given to st imulate the st udent's confidence in bi s own reasoning, and to cultivate his power of invention. But while mental development is the chief aim, still it is believed that the student who masters the course given below will have realized something of the power and elegance of the science, and the magnitude of the field that lies before him; and if he should wish to pursue the subject further, will have ·

The School of Physics embraces the several subjects usualh grouped under this title, or under the practically equivalent name-X atural Philosophy. These include the General Properties of J\Iattcr; :'.\[cchanics proper, or the cardinal doctrine~ of Force, Equilibrium, JUotion, and Energy, in their various kinds, their relations to the several states of matter, and their practical applications; the phenomena and la,rn of Sound, Light, Heat, :Magnetism, and Electricity, and the applications of these in our daily life.
The method of instruction is by text-books and by lectures, for the most part referring to the text, with daily examinations upon both text and lecture, and written exercises. To these are added full and systematic courses of Laboratory instruction, for which the rooms and outfit of the new "Science Hall" give ample facilities. The Department of Physics occupies eleven excellent rooms in this building. The laboratory equipment is already good, and will be added to from time to time, especially in the Department of Electricity.
The Jmnon CLASS,known also as the class in Experimental Physics, begins with the clements, anc1pursues tho course with the aid of abundant experiments and illustrations, both in tho lecture-room and in the laboratory, and with continual reference to practical applications. Tho e:ffort is made to combine in a course of modern Physics tho froslrnoss and attractiveness of an experimental ancl practical treatment, with the rigorous accuracy, tho scientific method and tho exact cliscipline which may form the basis for future scientific work. It is required for admission to this class tliat tho stuclent shall have an acquaintance with Elementary Algebra, and Plane Geometry, equivalent to tho completion of the course in the Sub -Ju nior Class of Mathematics.
Four lectures a week and fo11r hom·s of laboratory ,rork in this class
In tho SimroR CLASSthe subjects mentioned above are again taken up in the proper order, and are studied as completely as possible from the vantage ground of the knowledge gained in the Junior Class, and with additional aid to be found in the free use of mathematical principles. A more advanced co;nrse of Laboratory work is also given. An acquaintance with advanced 1\Iathomatics, equivalent to the completion of the Intermediate Class, is necessary for admission to this class.
Three lectures a week and three or more hours of laboratory work in this class.
Junior.-Gage's Principles of Physics will be the principal textbook, with others for reference. Gage's Physical Measurements was the laboratory ma nual used last year.
Senior.-Carhart's Univernity Physics, with reference to Barker's Advanced Pl,ysics, Daniell's Physics, and Yratson's Physics. The Laboratory Book used last year was Ames and Bliss' Manual of Experiments in Physics.
COURSES OJ!' INSTRUCTION.
Heretofore the course in Junior Physics has embraced a brief study of Celestial Physics, or Astronomy. Thi s was studied mainly as affording on the largest scale illustrations and applications of physical principles. The last six or seven weeks of the session were given to it.
The full introduction of Laboratory work consequent upon the occupancy of the new Science building, and the constant enlargement of the courses in Physics proper, have rendered this addition of Astronomy as a part of the course in Physics no longer practicable.
It is designed, however, to continue the teach ing of Astronomy in the College. It will remain in connection with the Department of Physics, but will be made hereafter an independent class. The course will be general and elementary, and will be adapted especially to students having some acquaintance with the el ements of Mathematics and of Physics. One lecture a week throughout the session will be given, with some written exercises, and some Observational and L aborato ry work.

Two distinct but entirely compatible objects are kept in view in the work of this school. The first is to familiarize the stude nt with the more important chemical compounds and the funda mental laws governing their formation and decomposition. The second object is to stimulate the student to critical observation and classification of phenomena, and thus to acquire skill in inductive reasoning.
Rrmnro::rn COLLEGE.
The :first :floor of Science Hall was arranged specifically for the work in this school, and contains laboratories and lecturerooms proYided with the best appointments. The subjects offered arc taught in two classes, each extending through the session of nine months.
JUNIOR CLASS.-During the fall and " ·inter terms the occurrence, preparation and properties of the elements and their chief compounds, togethCT with the fundamental laws of the science are carefully considered. Frequent reference is maclc to important applications of chrnical facts and laws in tl1e industrial arts.
During the spring term, a brief but concise comsc in Geology is given, special emphasis being laicl on the dynamic -agencies no,r acting on the earth as furnishing the key with which to unlock the history of its past. Three lectures and four hours laboratory work per week.
SENIOR CLASs.-During the fall term a wider surrny is taken of chemical phenomena ancl laws than is possible in the Junior Class, special cmphasiR being paid to the more recent developments of physical chemistry.
During the winter term special topics in industrial and agricultural chemistry will be discussed. The study of organic chemistry will be begun, and will continue through the spring term.
Three lectures and at least four hours of laboratory work per week.

"Tlie School of Philosophy is designed to supply a suitable
introduction to phi l osophical studies and to awaken in the mind of students such a degree of interest in them as may induce them to undertake and prosecute additiona l researches . It is divided into three classes, the Junior, Intermediate and Senior. The Junior Class is required for the Degrees of B. S. and B. A. Sfodcnts will not be accepted for the Intermediate and Senior Classes who have not completed tl1e work in the Junior ClasR, or its cquiYalent.
The disciplines of the Junior Class are divided into courses as follows:
I. Psycholog_v, in which attention will be given to the stucly of tlic mental life of animals as tbc same is related to ql1estions of human ps:ycl10logy,ancl lectures will be given on the methocls and results of animal psychology. The psychology of the child will next be treated in order to set forth the development of the mental life as it appears in the adult individual. Last l y . the cliscnssion of adult human psychology ,1·ill be undertaken .
II. Ethics, which is treated with reference to its scope and its relations to other sciences. Attention is given to tl1c various theories of the mom] standard, ancl to the moral life in its social and individual aspects, and likewise to the relations between ethics and metaphysics.
The disciplines of tl1c Intermediate Class are arranged as follows:
I. Logic, in which consideration is given to the elements, as terms, propositions and syllogisms. The laws of thought, the rules of the syllogism, its moods and figures are carefully taught, as well as conditional arguments, fallacies, induction and other subjects.
II. The History of Philosophy, which is studied from its origin among the Ionians do,rn to our own age. The rise of the various theories and tendencies and their connection one

with another are pointed out. The connection between philosophy and life is insisted on, and the influence of philosophical ideas upon the progress of civilization.
The following courses are to be pursued in the Senior Class :
I. Political Economy, in which the gradual development of the science and the leading facts in the economic progress of the United States of America are considered, and then the various topics of economic theory are taken up in order. Especial attention is directed to the questions and conditions that pre vail in our own country.
IL Sociology, of which the province is defined, and some of the laws of social phenomena arc studied.
III. Experimental Psychology, which may also be taken if desired by members of the Intermediate Class, and in which certain aspects of sensation, perception, reaction and attention will be considered.
TEXT-BOOKS.
Junior Class.-Tracy's Psychology of Childhood; James' Psychology ( Brief.er Course), and MacKenzie's Manual of Ethics. In the Fall Term Tracy will be completed and some of the earlier chapters of James will be ,;;tudied; in the Winter Term James will be completed; in the Spring Term Mackenzie will be completed.
Intermediate Class.-Jevons' Lessons in Logic and Weber's History of Philosophy. In the Fall Term Jevons will be completed; in the Winter Term the History of Ancient and Medireval Philosophy will be studied, and in the Spring Term the History of Modern Philosophy.
Senior Class.-Bullock's Introduction to the Study of Economics; Giddings' Elements of Sociology, and Titchener's Experimental Psychology; Student's Manual, Qualitative. In the Fall and portion of the Winter Term Bullock's Economics; in the last portion of the Winter and all of the Spring Term Gidding's Elements. Work in Experimental Psychology will be carried on once a week throughout the session.
The select and valuable philosophical library of the late Prof. William D. Thomas was presented to the College by his family during the last session. The College Library also supplies standard periodicals in philosophy and sociology.
Professor Mitchell.
History is taught with the desire of presenting an insight into the past, so that the rnincl may be disciplined for the jmlgment of the present. History is regarded as one stream, with Rome as the great reservoir, into which the best of Greece and the Orient ,ras emptied, and from which, by many outlets, Europe has been supplied. Facts arc studied to discover principles and to explain social phenomena, and the method of instruction is from cause to effect. History is viewed more especially from the standpoint of politics and economics, for history is properly the account of the evolution of social organization .
'l'his school is divided into three classes, as follows:
1. JuKrou CLASS.-Etlmology will be outlined, followed by a discussion of such topics as primitive man, the beginnings of civilization, and the origin of civil society. The civilization of the non-,\ryan peoples will then be taken up, after which the history of Greece will be treated chiefly from the standpoint of politics, literature, and art. The main facts of Roman history will be noticed, but especially its system of jurisprudence, its social and economic problems, ancl such institutions as have influenc ed the political and religious life of Modern Europe. The history of Europe will be considered under the following heads: ( 1) Origin of European States; ( 2) Imperialism and the Papacy; ( 3) Feudalism; ( 4) Renaissance and the Reformation; ( 5) French Revolution; and ( 6) Nationality and Democracy as realized in the Nineteenth Century
2. INTEIUIEDIATE CLASs.-A rapid glance will be given to the political history of England, but more time will be consumed in tracing the growth of the English Constitution in its successive stages, from the J\'Iagna Charta to the Reform Bills

of this century. The close connection between English and American institutions will be emphasized. In American hi story the period o.f colonization will be briefly summarized, after which the course will deal entirely with United States histor _y. Much attention will be paid to the historical geography of our country.
3. SENIORCLAss.-This course treats chiefly the vital moYements of the nineteenth century, setting forth the results of experience as regards the structure of the State and seeking to explain the social and political tendencies that enter into modern li.fe. Detailed study will be given to the Congress of Vienna, the unification of Italy, the founding o.f the German Empire, and the progress of democratic reform in England. A comparatiYe study of the constitutions of France, German}:, Switzerland, Austria-Hungary, Great Britain, and the United States will be made. This course will be especially helpful to those who intend to study law.

Grounds are laid out for foot-ball, base-ball, basket-ball, track athletics, tennis, and croquet. The College recognizes the intdligent care of the boll}' as essential to intellectual po,rcr, and encourages every beneficial form of physical exercise.
For many years series of popular lectures have been delivered in Richmond and elsewhere by professors in the College. In the spring of 1892 was given the first regular Extension course with syllabus, class-work, and guided reading. While the College has no organized department for carrying forward this important work, it will in the future continue to extend higher educational advantages to those unable to attend College classes.

This school, established in 1870, and continued with slight interruption till 1882, was in 1890 firmly re -established. The location is eminently suited for combining practical with theoretical instruction, by reason of easy access to the numerous co11rt,-Fcclcral, State, and 1\Iunicipal-held in the city of Hichmoncl, and the large and well -selected libraries-law and miscellaneous-of the State and the College.
The design of the school is to provide for the student a complete course in the general principles of the Anglo -American Law and their applications. To this end are taught the following subjects, to -wit: The Common Law, Statute Law, Criminal Law, Commercial Law, Equity Jurisprudence, Constitutional Law, and International Law. There are two classes in the school. The follo,Ying schedule is an exhibit of the subjects and by whom taught in each class, and the text -books used as the basis of instruction.

It is expected that text-books "\\·illbe taken up in the order-
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
· named above, but the Faculty reserve the right to rearrange subjects between classes, and to change text-books as may be -deemed beneficial to the school.
The instructJon is thorough and is given through textbooks and lectures, with daily oral examinations. The course is arranged for two sessions, and the student is advised to devote that time to it. But one, earnest and diligent, who has, ·before entering the school, become somewhat acquainted with the nomenclature of the law, may, by devoting the entire session of nine months to the study of the subjects embraced in the course, achieve the degree of Bachelor of Law in one session.
The Junior Class meets 4 :30 to 5 :30 P. M., and the Senior Class 5 :30 to 7 P. M. The hours for meeting the classes are -chosen with a view of enabling the student (who desires it) to attend all the lectures in the course; also, to give an opportunity to law students wishing to take classes in the Academic Department of the College and ( vice versa) to do so; ltnd, also, -to suit the convenience of young men in business who can only give a part of the day to the study of law.
Certificates of Proficiency are conferred upon those who attain a s11fficientknowledge of Criminal Law, Evidence, Negotiable Instruments, Corporation Law, Insurance Law, or of Constitutional and International Law (the two last being required for one certificate) to entitle them thereto; and, when conferred, dispense with further study of those subjects to take the degree of Bachelor of Law. The lectures upon all ,other subjects than those for which Certificates of Proficiency have been conferred and must be attended, and the examinations ( oral and written) thereon stood during the session the degree of B. L. is applied for.
To acquaint the student with the details of practice in the -drawing of deeds, wills, and other instruments; the institution and maturing of suits at law and in equity; the prepara-

The Library Departm ent of the College deserves special mention. The hall is exceptionally attractive, both in appearance and comfort . The equipment is of a high order, combining utility ancl beauty. Paintings ancl sculpture throw the charm of art over the whole. 'iVhilc the literary treasures of the College are provided with so imposing a home, they arc not withdrawn from the student. No part of the College is more freely open to the student body. No fee is charged. Appreciation of the advantages offered and propriety of conduct are the only requirements for the free use, during the entire day, of the hall and its bounties. The great aim of the management is to afford agreeable educationa l pastime for students at leisure, and to promote by the best methods and amplest resources scientific research and exhaustive critical study for those who need to pursue lines of investigation. Encyclopedias, lexicons, and a full line of other reference books and st udent helps are at hand in open cases, while reading tables, supplied with the best current literature, American and foreign, are accessible at all hours.
The Catalogue shows a steady gain in the best authors, selected with special reference to class work and a generous cultu re. The number of volumes increased during the past session from 13,866 to 14,580. The books may not only be freely consulted in the hall, where four large revolving Cases, filled with the best reference books, are placed, but are loaned to those who desire longer time for research. During the past session 2,970 volumes were borrowed, covering a wide range of general literature-poetry, fiction, history, biography, science, philosophy, and religion.
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
The largest individual gift of books during the past year <;ame from Mrs. William D. Thomas, of Richmond, in mem,ory of her husband, the· late Professor of the School of Philosophy, who added 100 volumes on Philosophical subjects.
A special feature in the hall is the alcove devoted to The Heaton Law Library, founded by the late Mrs. Harriet M. Purcell, at a cost of $3,000, in honor of h er deceased brother, Ron. Henry Heaton, of Loucloun county. On this foundation of the most approved and valuable works on l aw, the College is building by year ly accessions of valuab l e Reports from the General and State Governments, and all necessary Current Magazines. The students in the Law Department are given access to this Law Library, and u se it very freely.
A special Reading-Room for the Young J\Ien's Christian Association has been fitted up. Here is the :Missionar y Library-the religious periodicals and appliances for the thor•ough study of the Sunday-school lesson . On Sunday afternoon this special reading-room may be the gathering place of all students who can be induced to read, for ple asure or profit, the current religious literature of the country.
Bible study finds many accessories in the Librar y . A long l ine of the best commentaries on the Holy Scriptures are within reach, and the critical and experimental study of God's Word is constantly encouraged.
The beautiful James Thomas, Jr , Museum and Art Hall has been dedicated to its specific use. Into it have already been gathered casts of celebrated statuary, paintings, and many valuable curios and objects of ethnographical int erest
67 from all lands. Recently there were added, by gifts from the family, the life -size busts in white marble of Mr. James Thomas, after whom the Hall is named, and of Hon. ,J. L. M. Curry, so long Professor and Trustee and the great patron of education. There are also life-size casts of Venus de Milo, Apollo Belvedere, and the Borghese \Varrior; also busts of Homer, Vergil, Dante, Milton, Shakespeare, Tennyson, Napoleon, Luther, Columbus, Julius Cmsar, Sophocles, Sappho, and Clytie. Other additions have been the Greek relief of "V em1s Persuading Helen to follow Paris," Thorwaldsen's "Apollo and the l\Iuses," and a large oil painting, "Paul and Virginia," by Mrs. Emilie Lasar, of Portland, Me. By a su itable arrangement of cases, there is an attractive display of rare curios~ties from our own and foreign lands, the gifts of tnistees, alumni, and generous friends. Rev. Hugh P. McCormick, of Porto Rico, and Mrs. 'iV. E. Hatcher, of Richmond, have filled cases that are of exceptional value. A valuable collection has also been received from Rev. R. E. Chambers , of China, and from Rev. W. McS. Buchanan, of Japa n. Gifts of statuary, paintjngs, photographs, and objects of artistic or historical interest are gladly received. The Librarian is curator, and contributions should be forwar ded to him.
Two literary societies, known as the Mu SIGMA.RHO and PHILOLOGI.A.N,are maintained by the students, and are recognized as agencies of great value in scholastic training. They are provided with elegant halls, where they hold weekly meetings for declamation, debate, and other literary exercises. Besides the joint oratorical contest held in the spring, each society arranges for at least one public debate during the session. The two societies unite in publishing the Messenger, a monthly magazine of about seventy-five pages. A generous rivalry is maintained between the two organizations by the joint offer of an orator's medal and a writer's medal, and among the individual members by the offer in each society of a medal for improvement in debate and for the best debater. The medalists for 190.2-l!J03 were as follows:
Joint Orator's.-W. P. Powell, Philologian.
Joint Writer's.-E P. Buxton, Mu Sigma Rho. Mu SIGMA RHo.
Improvement-D. S. Freeman.
Best Debater's.-J. B. Lightfoot, Jr.
PHILOLOGIA.N.
Improvement.-0. D. Wade.
Best Debater's.-J. L. Powell, Jr.
The literary societies hold membership in the Virginia State Intercollegiate Oratorical Association, which is composed of the societies of the leading colleges and universities of Virginia . Representatives from the two Societies won from the
literary societies of ,Vake Forest College la st Thanksgiving the silver cup offered by the Raleigh Cham ber of Commerce for excellence in debate.
During the session of 1895-'96 the Richmond College Law Association was organized by students of the School of Law for the discussion of literary and legal questions. Meetings are held once a week.
The students maintain an actiYo Young I\Ien's Christia n Association, whoso object is to promote the spiritual and mora l welfare of the College and to do religious work in the city. The Association has charge of all prayer -meetings in College, ancl its members conduct services or teach Bible classes at the Cit_vHospital, tho Confederate Soldiers' Horne, the Locomotive Works, tho Home for Incurables, and at several mission stations in the suburbs. A pleasant feature of the work in College is the arrangement made for meeting new students upon their arriYal, and showing them many needful courtesies. Connected with the Association is a flourishing 1I rssroNARY SocrnTY, which meets twice a week for study of the habits, customs, prevailing religions, and geography of foreign countries. The Society owns an independent library.
Outdoor sports are fostered and encouraged at Ri chmond College. Details of management are entrusted to the Athletic Association, composed of students and professors, but the Pres• ident and Faculty exercise general control. The annual FieldDay contests are admirable incentives to physical culture. The following regulati ons governing Athletics have been adopted by the Facult y :

'I'hc Pre sident of the College will be glad to correspond ,rith Alumni who desire to form local a~sociations.
Instruction is conveyed by the use o.f approved text -books, supplemented by oral explanations and addit ion s, in some cases by more formal lectures, ancl in most of the classes by exercises to be written and carcfoly corrected. In cycry class the student is questioned on the assigned portion of the text or the previous lecture. An account of the value of these recitations and exercises is kept by the Professor, and the average standing for each month is calculated and cntcrcd of record for reference in determining his right to any of the honors of the institution.
To the parent or guardian is sent, monthly, a transcript of this rccorrl of class-standing, ,rith a statement of the absences of the student from his classes, and such other informati on as may be clecmcc1important. By the prompt and. judicious attention of those to whom they arc acldresRecl,these reports may be made of great Yahie in promoting imp r ovement and snstaining a jl1st discipline.
Besides the daily qncstjoning, t licrc are held in every class three general examinations conducted in writing. These examinations a r e held at the close of the fall, winter and spring terms. All examinatjons are limited. to three hours. Recitations arc suspended during the examination period.
The answers furnished by each student to the examination questions are carefully valued, and this valuation is equitably combined with the average of his class standing. If the mark
IloKon:3 _,xn DEG1mEs. 73

Only those students who attain rank in the first division, at all three examinations, are entitled to points in the estimates for degrees.
Certificates of Distinction are awarded to students who attain the first division at any examination, and their names are published or announced in the closing exercises of the session.

For further information address the President of the Col· lege.
The session opens on the Thursday nearest to the 22d oJ' September, and continues thirty-eight weeks. The next session, therefore, will open September 24, 1903, and will close June 16, 1904. Exercises are suspended for one week at Chr istmas. and on two separate days in the spring-Easte1· llfonclay, and "Field-Day," for compctitiYe out-of--door sports. Stuclcnts arc achiscd to be pre sent at the opening of t hl, session. This applies particularly to stuclcnis who enter J unior or Sub-Junior classes. Student s ,d10 arc prepared for classes h igh<'r than Sub-Junior, and cannot en t er in Septe mber, may enter with advantage at the opening of the winter or spring terms.
The system oJ' schools allmrs the selection by every slndcn of such studies as will be most valuable in qualifying him for his future pursuits; but, while allowing such selection, the College holds that the man is more than the occupation, ancl will always encourage a regular and complete course. To this · encl the right i,s reserved to prescribe the studies o~ any who may be found unprepared for classes higher than the JunioT in Latin, English, and :Mathematics. A committee of the Faculty will assist the President in matriculating students, and will carefully advise every new student as to his course of study.
Every student is expected to attend at least three schools, and to adhere throughout the session to the studies selected on his matriculation. Students who desire to pursue special sh1cl-
ies in one or more schools shoul cl commu ni cate with the PrQsident.
Students are assigned to the severa l classes in a school according to their apparent attainments; but the Professor in charge of a department will, at any time, transfer a student to a higher or lower class in that department when, in his judgment, such a ch ange is desirable.
Every applicant for admission, upon arriving at the College, must report promptly to the Presiclent. If he has been a student at any other college, he should present satisfactory evidence of general good conduct while there. If he comes from an acaclemy or high school, it i s desirable that he shoulcl bring a testimonial from the principal showing what st udies he has pursued and what progress he has made.
In case of reasonable doubt whether the applic ant is prepared by his previous training to undertake collegiate work, the question will be decided by en tranc e examinations in any two that he may elect, or in all of the three Schools of English, Mathematics, and Latin. For ent eri ng the School of English the r equirem ents are "a knowl edge of Element ary English Grammar and. ability to write with grammatical correctness"; for Mathematics, "a goocl lrnowledge of Arithmetic and Element ary Algebra through Simple Equations"; for Latin, "s uch acquaintance with Latin Grammar and Vocabulary as will enable one to translate simple prose." If found well prepared in all these the applicant may enter either these schools or others; i1 prepared on two of them, but not on the third, he will be allowed to matriculate, and will be aided in securing competent instruction, if desired, in the branch on which he is deficient.
When the question of preparation for College ha s been settled ailirmativel y, and the applicant has duly subscribed to
the regulations, he will receive a permit to matriculat e, and, upon presentation of this to the Tr easurer of the College and payment of the required fees, hi s name will be placed on the rolls
For statement concerning the matriculation of women, see special announcement on "Admission of Women."

Three dormitories on the College grounds furnish lodgin gs for two hundred students. Named in order of their erection, these buildings are Robert Ryland Hall, DeLand Cottage, and Memorial Hall. All three are substantially built of brick, and were carefully designed for their present uses. Each buildin g has its own toilet-rooms and sanitary arrangements of the most improved pattern.
In order that life at College may be as home-like as possible, the occupants of each dormitory are organized at the beginning of the session into a Club, which has general oversight of affairs in the building occupied by its members. It is the business of the officers of the Club to repress loafing, boisterousness of all kinds, and in every way to promote the social well-being of its members. The Club as a whole is held responsible for the building it occupies, and damages not ind ividually accounted for are charged against members pro rata. Meetings are held whenever necessary. Students who prove themselves objectionable to their fellow-residents in any dormitory will be removed from the building upon recommend ation of the officers of the Club. There are no club fees.
Each dormitory is in charge of an experienced janitor, who puts all lodging-rooms in order once a day. He also brings water and kindles fires. This service is paid for out of matri culation fees of students . Every effort is put forth by the Col-
lege authorities to insure good order, cleanliness, and neatness in the dormitories.
