Broadus, Roscoe B. Herth, and J. R. Chambliss be, and are hereby, constituted Trustees of said College, who, and their successors, shall be a body corporate under the name and style of Richmond, College, who shall have perpetual succession and a common seal, may receive and hold property for the benefit of said College, and may sue and be sued, implead and be impleaded.

They shall have power to appoint and remove officers for their own body, and a Faculty of instruction for the College, and to regulate all fees and salaries. They shall also have power to make By-Laws ana Regulations, not contrary to the laws of the land. Any seven Trustees shall form a quorum, and a less number may adjourn from time to time till a quorum be had.

3. The said Trustees, or any seven of them, are hereby authorized and empowered to confer Literary Degrees upon such persons as, in their opinion, shall merit the same in as ample a manner as any other college in this State, and under the corporate seal to grant testimonials thereof.

4. The said Trustees shall elect a Treasurer, who shall give bond, with approved security, payable to said College, conditioned faithfully

CHARTER. 5 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 Comt of the city of Richmond.

5. The said Trustees shall have power at any annual or other stated meeting, ten of them being present and concurring, to remove any Trustee, and at any time to supply any vacancy.

The number of Trustees shall never be less than twenty-four nor more than forty.

There shall be annual and other stated meetings of the Trustees at such time and place as their By-Laws shall prescribe. There may be special meetings at the call of their presiding officer, or any three Trustees, due notice of all such meetings being given.

6. The said Trustees are hereby authorized and required to admit to instruction in all the classes of the College, free of all charges except board, and in all respects upon terms of equality with other students, all ministers and preachers and candidates for the ministry belonging to the denomination of Christians called the Regular Baptists, who may be recommended by the Education Board belonging to the Baptist General As·sociation of Virginia, in which Board all the rights, properties, privileges, powers, duties, and obligations of the Virginia Baptist Education Society are hereby declared to be vested. And said Trustees may also admit gratuitously such other students as they may think proper. And said Trustees may receive donations, bequests, and clevises, or, in their discretion, purchase and hold property, real and personal, in any county or corporation of this Commonwealth, and use and control the same for educational purposes, in the founding and maintaining of schools or academies, under such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the said Trustees.

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 transferred to "Richmond College."

II. This act shall be in force from its passage.

The Endowment.

The College year, in patronage, in the devoted service of the Faculty, in the excellent order and in the signally fine progr ess of the students, has given the Trustees abundant cause for rejoicing While there have been no large gifts for the College during th e past year, it is gratifying to report that those who subscribed on the $25,000 offer of the American Baptist Education Society are showing the highest sense of honor and faithfulness in redeeming their bonds as they become due. More than $60,000 has been collected in cash from the Society and the individual subscribers.

It may be well to remind the public that the movement to endow the Greek chair in honor of H. H. Harris, the late eminent professor of Greek in Richmond College, 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.

A Department of Biology has been opened, and is already popular The money for the endowment and ample equipment of such a valuable department should not long be lacking.

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 give higher education, and the efficiency of this work must always be in proportion to the income from the endowment. Our College has a scholarly and efficient corps of teachers, but they are not receiving a support worthy of their gifts or services. The College needs more endowment, and its friends should appreciate the urgency of this necessity.

The College is fortunate in having some money which, as an Aid Fund, is used 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 shape 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. The Trustees have resolved that, wherever practicable, scholarships should be secured in the leading cities of our State to be offered to the best graduates 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. Scholarships for the benefit of young women are also earnestly invited.

Rev. W. E. Hatcher, D. D., LL. D., President of the Trustees, is now engaged in the work of increasing 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.

Gifts and Bequests.

Never in the history of the world has there been greater enthusiasm in favor of higher education than now prevails among the Ame r ican people. There is also an increasing disposition among public-spirited people to make their gifts while they live It is not wonderfu l that this should be the case. The fluctuations of fortune are many, and it is a sign of thoughtfulness for people to give their money while they ha ve 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 t he 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 distinct type of work in its ess ence and spirit which Richmond College is pledged to do. The quick gift is the self-doubling gift. But we know well that it is not convenient for all to make large gifts during their lifetime. They cannot take their capital from their business without crippling their liv ing. At the same time their hearts burn with large desires and the y cherish the thought that as they come to the end of life they will devote their substance entirely, or in part, to Christian education. T h ere are many names which the friends of Richmond College always utte r with gratitude and affection-those 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 t he good of humanity and for the glory of God.

General Statements.

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 character. Its tests 0£ scholarship are rigid and the standard of graduation is unusually high, while the physical, social, and religious welfare of its students is regarded as no less important.

Location.

The founders of the College showed rare wisdom ru1d foresight in selecting a location for their institution. Richmond is not only the capital of Virginia, but is the best known city in the South, and one of the historic cities of the world. Enduring memorials of American heroes constantly teach lessons of patriotism and inspire the young with noble ideals. The busy city, with its varied: manufactories and extensive commerce, reminds the student that the modern scholar must be practical as well as learned.

Richmond is also a city of religious influences, and its able and ' eloquent pulpit is an efficient aid to culture. The temptations to young men away from home are but little greater 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 size, except at some other Christian colleges, will' there be found so large a proportion of active Christians, or such strong and pervasive moral and religious influences.

Richmond lies midway between the severe cold of the orth 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 Jam es-the city is largely free from the malaria of

RICHl\IOKD COLLEGE.

tidewater ancl also from the pulmonary and enteric diseases of the mountain region. For thirty years there have been but few serious cases of sickness-none that could be ascribed to local causes .

Ground s and Buildings .

The College buildings stand in a beautiful park of thirteen acre s, situated in the western and most elevated part of the city. This is the residen ce section, and abounds in homes of wealth and culture. These natural advantages have been supplemented by municipal improvements, including gas and electric lights, a water supply , and a thorough system of drainage. The sanitary arrangements .are first-cl ass in every respect. Thus health, comfort, and means or recreatio n in open-air exercises, with sufficient seclusion to promot e study, ha Yebeen provided for and will receive constant attention.

The main building stands near the middle of the campus, and from it the surface slopes gently down on every side to the encom;passing 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-ro oms, well furnished with blackboards, map s, charts, and other appliances; and on the third floor three handsomely furnished halls, 30x40 feet, for the College societies. Th e south \Ying contains a Library Hall dedicated to the memory of Dr. J. B. Jeter, and on the second floor a spacious and elegantly furnished ::\Iuseum and Art Gallery, a memorial to James Thoma s, Jr. All these public halls are heated by steam.

Directl y in the rear of the main building is a Dining Hall, with needful conYeniences, and a Gymnasium and Bath Room under the same roof. On one side of this, and in the same line, making a row parallel to Lombardy street, is a cottage for students, with rooms arranged in pairs, study, and chamber, each 9x14; also two residences of professors. On the other side are three such residences. Thus the students are brought all the time within the personal influence of at least five professors and their famil i es, and the social, religious, and literary life of the College is very great ly promoted.

On K oYember 17, 1899, two new buildings were opened. 'l'hese buildings are known as Science Hall and Memorial Hall. The former cost, with equipment, thirty thousand dollars; the latter t wenty thousand dollars. Both are built of pressed brick, with granite trimmings.

Science Hall measures 120x51 feet, and is three stories above a basement. The well-lighted basement contains boilers for heating three buildings with steam, and also shops and apparatus r ooms. The twenty-seven rooms above the basement are all dernted to instruction in the natural sciences. On the first floor are t hree laboratories for chemistry, a lecture hall, a library-room, a bal ance room, professor's office, and two supply rooms for chemicals and apparatus. The first year laboratory accommodates fifty student s at one time. The second year laboratory has desks for b renty-four. The lecture-room has terraced seats arranged in semi-circles, with places for one hundred and twenty-five students.

T he arrangements in the department of physics are similar to t hose made for chemistry, each school occupying an entire floor. The third floor contains laboratories for instruction in biology, psychology, and drawing. All lecture-rooms and laboratories are Yentilated by the most improved system. The entire building is rnppli ed 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 lives and deeds of Virginia Baptists who have worthily contended for the principles of the denominat ion. Besides rooms named for individuals, both men and women, t he Hall contains a spacious fire-proof room with memorial windows, in special remembrance of those heroic preachers who suffered during the struggl~ for religious liberty in Virginia. The r oom has been placed in charge of the Virginia Baptist Historical Society.

The building contains lodgings £or seventy students. It is heated by steam and furnished with tub and shower baths.

RICHMOND COLLEGE.

Organization.

The College is composed of nine academic schools, or departments, and the professional school of Law. Instruction is also given in Biology, Mechanical and Freehand Drawing, Bibl ical Literature and Physical Culture. The Faculty consists of a pr esident and nine professors, each professor being re sp on sible 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 penalt y.

The system of schools has many advantages. Among them the following deserve attention: The professor feel s 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 time s; the st ud ent, as his aims or preparation require, can select a course suited to his peculiar case; he can enter, in any department of st ud y, the cla sses for which he is prepared, and deficiency in one branch does not retard him in another; students are not divided into fixed cla sses and grades, but all stand on a footing of social equality, and min gle 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 per sons than under a curriculum, are therefore of more value; and every good student, whether he takes a degree or not, re ceives a testimonial to his success in the shape of Certificates or School Diplomas

Discipline.

The deportment of a Christian gentleman 1s the standard t<> which every student is expected to conform. All appropriate means are used to develop and confirm a sense of pe r sona l honor and sacred regard for truth, as upon these rest s the best reliance for good conduct. A few plain and reasonable rule s are prescribed, and each matriculate must pledge himself to obey them. The following regulations are now in force:

I. Each st udent shall attend punctually every lectu re, 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 such absence or tardiness to the Professor in charge.

II. 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, has any right to enter a lodging except upon invitation of the occupants. Changes from one room to anothe r may be allowed by the P~esident, but must not be made without his previous consent. Re sidents in any Dormitory will be charged pro rata for all damages to the building not individually accounted for. All students occupying r ooms on the campus are required to attend the conference of profesr:;urs and students, held every Wednesday morning throughout the session, 8:-:l:Oto 9 A. M.

III. A resident student desiring to leaYe the premises during the hours when, by the Schedule of Recitations, he shoul d be in his classes, shall get permission from the President. Any student desiring to be absent from College shall get the Pre sident'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 stu dy 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. ,1I. to 8 P. M., and on Saturdays from 12 M. to 8 P. 1\I.

V. The Faculty regards h az ing as a ser ious 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 twentyfour hours, report the fact to the President in writing, and pay (to the Treasurer) the necessary cost of repairs ; otherwise double the amount will be charged against his contingent deposit, which must be renewed whenever exhausted by such charges. Playing

RrcrnrnND COLLEGE.

ball in the buildings and throwing water from the windows or porches are strictly prohibited.

VII. No student shall bring upon the premises or keep in his possession any playing cards, intoxicating liquors, dogs, or deadly weapons.

VIII. No Clubs or Societies shall be formed unless the Facult y, on application made, approve the design of such Association, the rules by which it proposes to be governed, and the hours of meetin g.

In the observance of these rules and in all matters not specially mentioned, the deportment of a gentleman and a student is the standard to which every one is expected to conform. His sense of honor is the main reliance, and his word in matters touchi ng his own conduct will be called for at the discretion of the Presid ent.

Whenever the President learns that a student is not improv ing his time, or is living disorderly, he first advises and admonishe s the young man before any penalty is imposed, except in grave offenses. It is neither the desire nor the purpose of the authorities to disgrace any student, but every one must live a pure, orderly and busy life, or withdraw from the College. Idling, card playing, and all other forms of dissipation are strongly condemned by the autho rities, and students who persist in these things will be disciplin ed and may be dismissed.

The College is neither a reform school nor a prison, but an in stitution of learning, and the opportunities it offers for a sound Christian education at moderate cost are to be looked upon as high privileges, in return for which those who attend upon its instruction are under a positive obligation to make the most of the advantages placed at their disposal by the munificence of its founders and benefactors. The President and members of the Facu lty hold themselves at all times ready to assist and encourage those young men who are earnest in their search after knowledge; but if there be any in whom the spirit of earnestness does not exist , or in whom it cannot be inculcated, they are hereby warned that Ri chmond College is not the place for them. It is gratifying to add that, during the session of 1903-'04, the behavior of student s was so excellent that the Faculty was required to act upon only one case of discipline.

R.eligion.

St u dents h ave easy access to all the advantages afforded by the variou s cit y churches with their Bible classes and Sunday-schools. Those who are professor s of religion may bring with them letters of comm endation, and without severing their ecclesiastical connections at h om e, 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 exerci ses, conducted by the President and attended by professors. Praye r-m eeting s, conducted by the students themselves, are held twice or oft ener every week. Attendance on religious exercises is entire l y ,oluntary. All students resident in college buildings are expected t o attend a ''Wedn esday Conference" of professors and students, h eld ever y Wedne sday at 8 :40 A. M. This conference is gener all y opened or closed with brief reli g ious exerci ses. The object of t h e conference is to promote the social and moral wellbeing of t h e College community.

Courses of Instruction.

I. Schoolof Latin Languageand Literature, Professor Foushee.

The course of stud y embraces four year s, as ind icat ed below. Students entering the school will be classed according to th eir preparation. Those who expect to enter any one of th e cla sses will find profit in reviewing carefully in the summer lei sur e the form & as found in any Latin grammar.

In all classes written recitations are given from time to time, for which there may not necessarily be previous notice. In the high er classes parallel work will be assigned for private r eading, and, as occasion arises, topics on kindred literary and lin gu istic subjects will be given for investigation and presentation.

The importance of the study of Greek is empha sized for all who wish to get the full cultural value of the course in Latin. Th e study of French and other Romance languages is highly enlight ening to the student of Latin.

TEXT-BOOK, Moore's Latin Exercises.

Students of all classes should make constant use of Harper's Latin Dictionary, Kiepert's Atlas Antiquus, Harper's Classical Dictionary, Gayley's Classical Myths, the several Histories of Rome and works on RomanAntiquities, which are to be found in the General Library, as books of reference.

II. Schoolof Greek Languageand Literature.

Professor Harris.

The aim of this school is to give the student an appreciative acquaintance with the best Greek authors and to inspire a lov~ for Hellenic studies. From the beginning of the course exactness will be insisted upon. In all classes reading at sight will be practiced, and English will be put into Greek, either as a set exercise or at dictation. At suitable times there will be conferences on Greek life, mythology, history, literature, and art, and at all times an effort will be made to lead the student into a keener appreciation of th~ genius of the Greeks, and to cultivate a sense for their literary standards.

The work of this school is embraced in the following courses:

I. SUB-JUNIOR CLASs.-This class begins with the alphabet, and is occupied in securing a thorough knowledge of forms, a working • vocabulary, and the fundamental points of syntax. In the spring, the Anabasis will be taken up, and one or more books will be read. Five hours a week throughout the year. To enter this course a knowledge of Latin is prerequisite.

II Ju~IOR CLAss.-'l'his class will complete four books of the Anabasis and then take up Lysias, or some author to be selected. Especial attention will be paid to forms and inflections. Weekly exercises in composition; translation at sight; grammar. Five hours a week throughout the year.

II I. INTERMEDIATECLASS.-'l'his course will be subject to change as th e needs of the students may dictate. The work will center around Plato, the Drama, and Homer. Weekly exercises in composition; brief lectures on Greek philosophy, the Drama, Homer, and their relations to Greek life. Work will be assigned for p1:ivate reading, on which the student will be examined.

I V. SENIORCLAss.-In this course the work will center around Thucydides and Demosthenes. Work will also be assigned for prinite r eading in Herodotus and the Attic Orators. The course will be made as general as is consistent with thoroughness. Lectures on litera ture, grammar and rhetoric.

GREEK TESTAMENT.-If there is sufficient demand, prov1s10n ,rill be made for a study of the New Testament in Greek. This class is not given College credit, but finds in itself its own reward. The work will be made as practical as possible.

Ill. School of Frenchand German

.

Professor· Boatwright. Dr. Stewart.

Instruction in this department is adapted to give the student a knowledge of vocabulary and grammatical structure sufficient to enable him to ::ead French and Gel'man literature with understan ding and pleasure; secondarily, to teach him to speak these languages, and to understand them when spoken. In Junior clas ses, modern authors are read, and language is taught as an art. In senior cla sses, more attention is paid to the classics and to the scientific study of language structure. l\fuch time is devoted to the history of literature. Frequent essays are required.

The course is varied from year to year in order that advan tage may be taken of the latest arnl best helps in this department of study. The text-books used chuing the session 1903 -'04 are indicated below, and practically the same course will be offered in 1904-'05.

V. Schoolof Mathematics. Professor Gaines.

This school offers a course of pure Mathematics extending over four years. The work of the lowest class pre-supposes a thorough knowledge of Arithmetic and of Elementary Algebra through simple Equations.

COGRSES OF I~STRUCTION.

The aim of the course is not so much to make specialists of a few enthusiastic students as to give thorough mental discipline to the many It is intended to increase the student 's power of independent, earnest, honest investigation; to encourage the habit of stating with clearness and exactness his own convictions, and of giving logically his reasons for them. Throughout the entire course numerous exercises and original problems are given to stimulate the student's confidence in his own reasoning, and to cultivate his power of invention.

But while mental development is the chief aim, still it i s believed tha t the student who masters the course given below wilt have realized something of the power and elegance of th e science, and the magnitude of the field that lies before him; and if heshouldwish to pursue the subject further, will have acquired sufficientknowledge of Mathematic s and mathemati cal methods t_obe ableto continue his studies in the graduate courses offered in the leading universities of America.

(1) An elementary course in Differential Equations. (2) The theory of Infinite Series and Products . (3) The theory of complex quantities with a brief introduction to the theory of Functions (4) The theory of Invariants and Covariants, with applications to geometry. ( 5) Modern methods in geometry As parallel work the students are required to read a short history of mathematics in order that they may know something of the development of the science and of the methematicians who have principally contributed to this development.

The subject of Land Surveying is taught in an additional class open to students who have finished the junior class. M:uch of the time devoted to this class is spent in the field, thus giving the students familiarity with the instruments used and considerable practice in doing the field work.

TEXT·BOOK. Gillespie's Land Surveying.

VI. School of Physics.

Professor Winston. Mr. Broun.

The School of Physics embraces the several subjects usually grouped under this title, or under the practically equivalent name- Natural Philosophy These include the General Properties of Matter; Mechanics proper, or the cardinal doctrines of Force, Equilibrium, Motion, and Energy, in their various kinds, their rela· tions to the several states of matter, and their practical applica· tions; the phenomena and laws 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 ancl lecture, and written exercises. To these are added full and systematic courses of Laboratory instruction, for which the rooms ancl outfit of the new "Science Hall" give ample facilities. The Department of Physics occupies eleven excellent rooms

in this building. The laborat ory equipment is already good, and will be added to from time to time, especially in the Department of Electricity.

The JUNIOR CLASS,known also as the cla ss in Experimental Physics, begins with the elements, and pur sues the course with the aid of abundant experiments and illustrations, both in the lecture-room and in the laboratory, and with continual reference to practical applications. The effort is mad e to combine in a course 01modern Physics the freshness and attractivene ss of an experi-mental an d practical treatment, with the rigorous accuracy, the scientific me thod and the exact di scipline whi ch may form the basisfor f uture scientific work. It is r equired for admi ssion to this class that t he student shall have an acquaintance with Elementary Algebra, and Plane Geometry, equivalent to the completion of the course in t he Sub-Junior Class of Mathematics.

Four lectures a week and four hours of laboratory work in this class.

Students who have completed the Junior class ma y take either of two classes of Senior grade. The Senior Phy sics cla ss is intended for students who wi sh to extend their knowledge of general physics as part of a liberal education. The cla ss in Practical Mechanics and Electricity is intended for students who propose to enter the profession of Engineering.

In the SENIORPHYSICS CLASSthe subjects mentioned above are again taken up in the proper order, and are studied as completely as possibly from the vanta ge 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 course of Laboratory work is also given. An acquaintance with advanced .Mathematics, equivalent to the completion of the Intermediate Class, is necessary for admission to this class.

Three l ectures a week and three or more hours of laboratory work in t his class.

PRACTICAL MECHANICSAND ELECTRICITY.-In

this class advanced ins truction is offered in mathematical physics, especially the subject s of Mechanics and Electricity. Students taking this course

RICHj\[O:\"D COLLEGE.

must have completed the course in Junior Physics and in In termediate 1:Mathematics.

The cour se consists of three lectures and recitations a week together 1'ith work in the laboratory. The subjects considered are mechanic s of solid s, liquids and gases, molecular mechanics, gen,eral applied mechanics and electricity. A large amount of pr actical work in the laboratory is required.

TEXT·BOOKS.

Junior.-Gage ' s Principles of Physics will be the principal t extbook, with others for reference . Gage's Physica l Meas u re m ents was the laboratory manual used last year.

Senior Physi cs .-Carhart's University Physics, with reference to Barker's Advan ced Physics, Daniell ' s Physics, and Watson's Phys ics. The Laboratory Book used last year was Ames and Bliss' Manual of Experiments in Physics.

Practi cal M echan ic s and Electricity.-Watson's Text-book of Physi cs. Thompson's Elementary Lessons in Electricity and Magnetism. Instructor 's Notes on Mechanics. For reference: Lanza's Applied Mechanics .

Astronomy .

Heretofore the course in Junior Physics has embraced a bri ef study of Celestial Physics, or Astronomy. This was studi ed mainly as affording on the largest scale illustrations and applic ations of physical principles. The last six or seven weeks of th e session were given to it.

The full introduction of Laboratory work consequent upon th e occupancy of the new Science building, and the constant enlarg ement of the courses in Physics proper, have rendered this additio n of Astronomy as a part of the course in Physics no longer practicable.

It i s designed, however, to continue the teaching of Astronom y in the College. It will remain in connection with the Departmen t of Physics, but will be made hereafter an independent class. Th e course will be general and elementary, and will be adapted especially to students having some acquaintance with the element s

Freehandand MechanicalDrawing .

I. FREEHAND DR.A.WING.

N o preparation required.

A course of four hours' a week throughout the year. Its objLrt is to develop the powers of imagination, judgment and taste in dir ections called for in engineering and natural sciences. The session's work will consist largely of drawing of letters, object dr awing and application of lettering, such as dimensions, titles an d the making of working sketches. The students also sketch mechanical subjects, such as details of machinery apparatus, natural history specimens, etc. The course also includes study from the cast of ornament and of the human figure.

IL MECHANICAL DRAWING.

For a student to enter this class he must have completed the course in Freehand Drawing or its equivalent. This course consists of drawing-room exercises from three to four hours a week for the second year, and includes introductory work in descriptive geometry with applications, drawing instruments and their uses, geometri cal construction, mechanical drawing from objects, lettering a nd dimensioning. Faunce's or Church's text book is employed. The instruction also includes drawing of simple machine details, bolts, nuts, screws, pipe fittings, etc. Problems in belting, design of cams and quick return motions will be introduced.

III. MECHANICAL DR.A.WING.

In order to take this course the student must have completed Freehand Drawing and Mechanical Drawing II. The course consists of drawing room exercises from four to six hours per week, its aim being to teach the proper way of making necessary dimensional drawings for use in practice, good shop systems being em-

ployed. The instruction includes the making of working detail and assembly drawings of machinery from measurements. Students in this department furnish their own drawing materials.

VII. Schoolof Chemistry.

Professor Hunter.

'1 1 wo distinct but entirely compatible objects are kept in view in the work of this school. The first is to familiarize the student with the more important chemical compounds and the fundamental la ws governing their formation and decomposition. The second object is to stimulate the student to critical observation and classificati on of phenomena, and thus to acquire skill in inductive reasoning.

The first floor of Science Hall was arranged specifically for th e work in this school, and contains laboratori es and lecture-room s provided with the best appointments. The subjects offered ar e taught in two classes, each extending through the session of nin e months.

JUNIOR CLASs.-During the fall and win te r terms the occurrence, preparation and properties of the elements and their chief compounds, together with the fundamental law s of the science are carefully considered. Frequent reference is made to import ant applications of chemical facts and laws in the industrial arts.

During the spring term, a brief but conci se cours e in Geology is given, special emphasis being laid on the dynami c agencies now acting on the earth as furnishing the key with which to unlock th e history of its past. Three lectures and four hour s laboratory work a week.

SENIORCLAss.-During the fall term a wider survey is take n of chemical phenomena and laws than is possible in the Junio r Class, special emphasis being paid to the more recent development s 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 a week.

During the session of 1905-'06 a laboratory course will be offered in quantitative analysis, involving both gravimetric and volumetric determinations of chemically pure compounds and native ores. This course will meet the needs of students desiring t o specialize in Chemistry, or to take advanced standing in the leading technical schools. Not less than eight hours a week will be r equired.

VIII. Schoolof Philosophy. Professor

Whitsitt.

The School of Philo sophy is d esign ed to supply a suitable introduction to philosophical studies and to awaken in the minds of etudents such a degree of intere st as may induce them to undertak e additional researches. It is divided into three classes, Junior , In t ermediate, and Senior. The Junior Class is required for the Degrees of B. S. and B. A. Students will not be accepted for the Intermediate and Senior Classes who have not completed th e work in the Junior, or its equivalent.

The disciplines of the Junior Class are divi ded into three courses, as follows:

I. Psychology, in which attention will be given to the mental lif e of animals as the same is related to questions of human psychology. The psychology of the child will also be treated with a view to set forth the development of mental life in the period of in fancy. Lastly, the discussion of adult human psychology is pursued.

II. Ethics, which is treated with reference to its foundation , scope, and relations to other sciences. Attention is given to the different theories of the moral standard, and to questions of the moral life both in its social and indiviil.ual aspects, as also to the relations between ethics and metaphysics.

R1c1n10xn COLLEGE.

The disciplines of the Intermediate Class are arranged as fol- lows:

I. Logic, in which consideration is given to the elements of t he science, as terms, propositions and syllogisms. The laws of thou ght, the rules of the syllogism, its moods and figures are carefu lly taught, as well as conditional arguments, fallacies, induction and other subjects.

II. History of Philo sophy, which is studied from its origin among the Ionians down to our own age. The rise of various the ories and tendencies, and their connection one with another are pointed out. The relation between philosophy and life is insi st ed upon, and the influence of philosophical ideas upon the progress of history.

In the Senior Class the following courses are pursued:

I. Political Economy, in which the gradual development of th e science, and especially the leading facts of economic progress in th e United States of America are considered, and various topics of eco- nomic theory are discussed.

II. Sociology, of which the province and methods are defined, while many of the laws of social phenomena are discussed.

III. Experimental Psychology, in which certain aspects of sensation, perception, reaction, and attention are considered. An experimental laboratory has been provided. Experimental P sy- chology will hereafter be required for graduation both in the In- termediate and Senior Classes.

IX. Schoolof History.

Professor Mitchell.

History is taught with the desire of pres enting an insight into the past, so that the mind may be disciplined for the judgment of t he present History is regarded as one stream, with Rome as the great reservoir, into which the best of Greece and the Orient was emptied, and from which, by many outlets, Europe has been supplied. Facts are 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.

This school is divided into three classes, as follows:

1. JUNIOR Cu.ss.-Ethnology 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 nonAryan 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 not iced, but especially its system of jurisprudence, its social and economic problems, and such institutions as have influenced 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 Revoluti on; and ( 6) Nationality and Democracy as realized in the Nineteenth Century.

Students entering the Junior History Class are expected to have studied a manual of the History of the United States, Myers' General History, and Montgomery's History of England, or the equivalent of these books.

2. INTERMEDIATECLAss.-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 iMagna Oharta to the Reform Bills of this century. The close connection between Er!glish and American institutions will be emphasized. In American history the period _ of colonization will be briefly summarized, after which the course will deal entirely with United States history. Much attention will be paid to the historical geography of our country.

3. SENIOR OLASs.-This course treats chiefly the vital movements 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 tendercies that enter into modern life. Detailed study will be given to the Congress of Vienna, the unificati on of Italy, the founding of the German Empire, and the progress of democratic reform in England. A comparative study of the constitutions of France, Germany, 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.

TEXT-BOOKS.

Junior Glass. West's Ancient History; Robinson's History of Western Europe; Andrew's History of England.

Intermediate Glass.-Ransome's Advanced History of England; Morse Stephen's Revolutionary Em:ope; Channing's Students' History of the United States; Bryce's American Commonwealth.

Senior Olass.-Woodrow Wilson's The State; Seignobos' Political History of Europe since 1814.

Senior History can be offered for the M. A. degree. The method of instruction places emphasis upon written reports on special topics assigned from time to time to members of the class.

Biology.

Dr. Baggarly.

The Biological Department occupies rooms in Science Hall, and is equipped with all modern conveniences. The laboratory is large, well heated and well ventilated. Since it is situated on the third floor and has large windows facing the north, it could not be better lighted for microscopical work. The course offered in 1904-'05 will be general Biology, and instruction will be given by (a) Lectures and by (b) Laboratory Work.

(a) Lectures. Three hours a week during the school year. The purpose of the lectures is to give the student a knowledge of the principles underlying the structure and physiology of living things by a study of the characteristics of living matter, and a comparison of one type with another. Growth, development, and reproduction, and comparative anatomy will be especially noted. The course will embrace a comparative study of living things-animal and vegetable-and will begin with the simple microscopic organisms, as yeast plant and amoeba, and from these the student will be led to consider successively higher types chosen from the animal and vegetable kingdoms, until he reaches such a complex organism as the common flower and typical mammal.

(b) Laboratory Work. Four hours a week will be required throughout the year. Each student will be assigned a table on which is a microscope, reagents, instruments and all apparatus necessary for biological work. Typical forms of life are studied, and the order will be from the simpler to a more complex organisms. The principles of the microscope, the handling, staining, mounting and sketching of specimens, and a comparison of one form with another are the chief features of the work. In Botany, special attention will be paid to methods of collecting, preserving and classifying specimens. Each student will be required to hand in a selected herbarium properly arranged and mounted at a date to be announced by the instructor in this department.

RICIIMOND COLLEGE.

English Bible.

Professors Gaines, Whitsitt and Haa•ris.

The aim is to acquaint students as thoroughly as is practicabl e with the Scriptures as the inspired Word of God. The history , geography, and literature of the Bible, with necessary exegesis, serve to throw light upon the sacred text and to discover the divine mind and spirit in this revelation. Intelligent knowledge, by systematic effort, of the Maker and Ruler of all, is essential to complete education, gives unity to the different departments of human learning, and is due to Him "who lighteth every man that cometh into the world." The courses are adapted to students of all grades, with no reference to any particular profession in view. They are free to all matriculates of the College. There will be three courses of study, one in the Gospels, one in the .Acts and Epistles, and one in "Old Testament Characters." These courses will be conducted by Professors Gaines, Whitsitt, and Harris, in the order named. Each class will recite once a week at an hour to be announced at the organization of the class. .A credit of one point will be allowed on each of the three courses, provided, however, that no student shall be credited in any year with more than one point. It is further provided that a credit on Bible work shall not be included in the fifteen required points of the English-Philosophical group.

Physical Culture.

Mr. Gaffney.

Carefully arranged courses in Physical Culture are offered free of cost to every matriculate of the College. Two classes are given daily exercises in the gymnasium and instructed in the principles of hygiene. .All students are urged to join one of the classes. Each student, on entering a class, is given a physical examination, in order that any lack of development may be noted and the proper exercise prescribed. .At the close of the session's work the measurements are again taken, and, on the basis of attendance and physical improvement combined, certificates are awarded.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION. 55

Hot and cold baths are provided in rooms adjoining the gymnasium, which are kept open, without charge, six days in the week. In the dressing-room are lockers, which are rented to students at fifty cents each. The spacious campus affords ample opportunity for recreative exercise. Grounds are laid out for foot-ball, baseball, basket-ball, track athletics, tennis, and croquet. The College recognizes the intelligent care of the body as essential to intellectual power, and encourages every beneficial form of physical exercise.

UniversityExunsion.

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 cour se 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. In the College Bulle tin for May, 1904, may be found a full list of public lectures by professors during 1903-' 0-1.

Schoolof Law.

Professor Gregory.

Professor Minor.

Professw Long.

This school, established in 1870, and continued with slight inte rruption till 1882, was in 1890 firmly re-established. The locati on is eminently suited for combining practical with theoretical in struction, by reason of easy access to the numerous courtsFe deral, State, and 1Municipal-held in the city of Richmond, and th e large and well-selected libraries-law and miscellaneous-of th e 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 t heir applications. To this end are taught the following subje cts, 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 foll owing schedule is an exhibit of the subjects and by whom taught in each class, and the text-books used as the basis of instruction.

JUNIOR CLASS.

The Law of Persons; the Law of Personal Property, embracing contracts, sales, wills, administration, legacies, and partnership; the Law of Insurance.

Law Register; Graves' Title to Personal Property; Virginia Reports; Code of Virginia, Pollard's Supplement and subsequent Acts of General Assembly.

It is expected that text-books will be taken up in the order named above, but the Faculty reserves the right to rearrange subjects between classes, and to change text-books as may be deemed beneficial to the school.

The instruction is thorough and is given through text-books 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 Jaw, may, by devoting the entire session of nine months to the study 0£ th e subjects embraced in the course, achieve the degree of Bachelor of Law in one session.

Th e 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 0£ the College ( and vice versa) to do so; and, also, to suit the convenience 0£ young men in business who can only give a part of the day to the study of law.

Certificat es of Proficiency are conferred upon those who attain a sufficient knowledge of Criminal Law, Evidence, Negotiable Instr uments, 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 0£L aw The lectures upon all other subjects than those for which Certificates of Proficiency have been conferred must be attended, and the examinations ( oral and written) thereon stood during the session the degree of B. L. i s applied for.

RICHMOND

COLLEGE.

Most students enter for the Junior Class. Their fees for the entire session, therefore, amount to $62.50, of which $2.50 i s refundable July 1st. The matriculation fee admits a student to all College privileges, such as use of library, gymnasium, bath, etc. If law students desire to reside on the College grounds, they may engage rooms and table board on equal terms with academic students. Rates are fuly stated further on in this catalogue under the head of "Expenses."

The cost of all text-books needed for the entire Law course is about $75.

The Library.

0. H. Ryland,, D. D., Librarian.

The Library Department 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 and beauty. Paintings and sculpture throw the charm of art over the whole. While the literary treasures of the College are provided with so imposing a home, they are 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 £or the free use; during the entire day, of the hall and its bounties. The great aim of th e management is to afford agreeable educational pastime for students at lei sure, and to promote by the best methods and amplest resources scientific research and exhaustive critical study £or those who need to pursue lines of investigation. Encyclopedias, lexicons, and a full line of other reference books and student 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 culture. The books may not only be freely consulted in the hall, but are loaned to those who desire longer time £or research. During the past session 3,500 volumes were borrowed, covering a wide range of general literature-poetry, fiction, history, biography, science, philosophy, and religion.

The Trustees of the College, through the Library Committee, are successfully carrying out a plan £or an up-to-date card catalogue. When the card system is completed, the Library will reveal treasures hardly known as yet to the student body, and will render all books, and the subject matter of all books, more accessible than ever before.

RICHMOND COLLEGE.

The LawAlcove.

A special feature in the hall is the alcove devoted to The Hea ton Law Library, founder by the late Mrs. Harriet M. Purcell, at a cost of $3,000, in honor of her deceased brother, Hon. He nry Heaton, of Loudoun county. On this foundation of the most approved and valuable works on law, the College is building by yearly accessions of valuable Reports from the General and State Government s, and all ne cessary current Magazines. The students in t he Law D epartment are given access to this Law Library, and u se it very freely.

BibleStudyand SundayReading.

A special Reading-Room for the Young Men's Christian Association has been fitted up. Here is the Missionary Library-th e r eligious periodicals and appliances for the thorough study of the Sunday-school le sson. On Sunday afternoon this special readi ng room may be the gathering place of all students who can be induced to read, for pleasure or profit, the current religious literat ure of the country.

Bible study finds many accessories in the Library. A long li ne of the best commentaries on the Holy Scriptures are within re ach, and the critical and experimental study of God's Word is constantly encouraged.

Museum.

The beautiful James Thomas, Jr., Museum and Art Hall is dedicated to a specific use. Into it have already been gathered casts of celebrated statuary, paintings, and many valuable curios and objects of ethnographical interest from all lands. There have been added, by gifts from the family, the life-size busts in white marb le of Mr. James Thomas, after whom the Hall is named, and of H on. J. L. M. Curry, so long professor and Trustee of the College. Th ere are also life-size casts of Venus de Milo, Apollo Belvedere, and the Borghese Warrior; also busts of Homer, Vergil, Dante, Milt on, Shakespeare, Tennyson, Napoleon, Luther, Columbus, Jul ius

Cresar, Sophocles, Sappho, and Clytie. Other additions have been th e Greek relief of "Venus Persuading Helen to follow Paris," Thorwaldsen's "Apollo and the Muses"; a large oil painting, "Paul an d Virginia," by Mrs. Emilie Lasar, of Portland, Me., and a complete suit of Spanish armor, the gift of Mrs. J. L. ,J\II. Curry. By a suitable arrangement of cases, there is an attractive display of rare curiosities from our own and foreign lands, the gifts of trus tees, alumni, and generous friends. Rev. Hugh P. McCormick, of Porto Rico, and Mrs. W. 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 Japan. Gifts of statuary, paintings, photographs, and objects of artistic or historical interest are gladly received. The Librarian is curator, and contributions should be forwarded to him.

Student Organizations.

LiterarySocieties.

Two literary societies, known as the Mu SIGMA RHO and PHILOLOGI.A.N,are maintained by the students, and are recognized as agencies o:f great value in scholastic training. They are pro- vided 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 o:f about seventy- five pages. A generous rivalry is maintained between the two organizations by the joint offer o:f an orator's medal and a writer's medal, and among the individual members by the offer in each society o:f a medal for declamation or improvement in debate, and :for the best debater. The medalists :for 1903-1904 were as :fol- lows:

Joint Orator's.-R. H. Willis, Mu Sigma Rho.

Joint Writer's.-Douglas S. Freeman, Mu Sigmo Rho.

Mu SIGMARHo.

Declamation-Fred G. Pollard.

Best Debater's.-W. E. Ross.

PHILOLOGI.A.N,

Improvement.-W. M. Black.

Best Debater's.-W. V. Thraves.

The literary societies hold membership in the Virginia State Intercollegiate Oratorical Association, which is composed o:f the societies o:f the leading colleges and universities o:f Virginia. Representatives from the two Societies contest with the literar y

soci eties of \ Vake Forest College at Thanksgiv ing for a sil ver cu p offered by the Raleig h Chamber of Commerce for excellence i n debate.

LawAssociation.

During the session of 1895-"96 the Richmond Coll ege Law Association was organized by students of the Schoo l of Law for the disc:usion of literary and legal questions . ,-:\Ieetings are held once a week.

Y. M .C. A.

'l'he students maintain an active Young Men ' s Christian A ssociatio n, whose object s is to promote the spiritual and moral welfare of th e College and to do r eligious work in the city. The Associati on has charge of all prayer -meetings i n College, an d its members conduct services or teac h Bible cl asses at the City Hospital, t h e Confederate Soldiers ' Home, the Locomotive Works, the Home for Inc urables, 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 ar r iva l , and showing them ma ny needfu l courte sies.

Connected " ·ith the Association is a flou rishing ,-:\IrssIONARY S oc rnTY, which meets twice a week for study of the habits, custo ms, prevai l ing religions, and geography of fo r eign countries. 'l' he Society owns an inde p endent li brary.

Beginning in September, 1904, the Y. :M:.0. A will have excellen t rooms exclusive l y for its own use

Athletic Association.

LOCAL CHAPTERS.

In May, 1898, there was organized in Louisville a Chapter of the General Society of Alumni, which is known as the "Kentucky Association of Richmond College Alumni." The Kentucky Association holds annual meetings in May. The present officers are: Dr. S. E. Woody, Louisville, president; Professor W. 0. Carver, Louisville, secretary and treasurer.

In February, 1899, the alumni resident in Norfolk, Va., and vicinity organized a "Norfolk Chapter of Richmond College Alumni." The chapter holds annual meetings in February.

The President of the College will be glad to correspond with Alumni who desire to form local associations.

Honors and Degrees.

Monthly~eports.

Instruction is conveyed by the use of appro.-ed text-books, sup- plemented by oral explanations and additions, in some cases by more formal lectures, and in most of the classes by exercises to be written and carefully corrected . In every class the student is ques- tioned on the assigned portion of the text or the preYious 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 entered 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 record of class-standing, with a statement of the absences of the student from his classes, and such other information as may be deemed important. By the prompt and judicious attention of those to whom they are addressed, these reports may be made of great value in promoting improvement and sustaining a just discipline.

Examinations.

Besides the daily questioning, there are held in eYery class three general examinations conducted in writing. These examination s are held at the close of the fall, winter and spring terms. All examinations are limited to three hours. Recitations are suspended during the examination period.

The answers furnished by each student to the examination ques- tions are carefully valued, and this valuation is equitably combined with the average of his class standing. If the mark of a student , as thus ascertained, amounts to eighty per centum he is ranked in the first division; if to less than this, but not less than fifty per centum, in the second division; if to less than fifty, in the third division.

H, however, the average class standing for any term falls below 70 per cent. the -student cannot be ranked in the first divi sion without taking a second time the class work for that term. Only those students who attain rank in the first division, at all three examinations, are entitled to points i~ the estimates for degrees.

Certificates of Distinction are awarded to students who attain the first division at all examinations in any class and their names are published or announced in the closing exercises of the session.

Students who fail to obtain certificates of distinction at the reg ular examinations, or for any reason clo not stand these examinations, have no right to pass to the next higher class in a department. Special examinations may be granted only by vote of the Fac ulty. All special examinations for entrance to higher classes mus t take place within the ten clays beginning with the Tuesday prec eding the opening of the College session.

Certificates of Proficiency are conferred on students in the Scho ol of Law ,,-ho attain the first division at all examinations in certain complete subjects, to-wit: In Constitutional and International Law, in Criminal Law, in Evidence, in Corporation Law, in the Law of Insurance , and in the Law of Negotiable Instruments.

Diploma s are confe rred on those who attain to the first division in the full course ta ught in each school or department, to-wit: Latin Language and Literature , Greek Language and Literature, French Lan guage and Literature, German Language and Literature, Engli sh Language, English Literature, Mathematics, Physics, Chem istr y, Philosophy, and History.

The subject of the thesis must be submitted to the Faculty within two months from the date on which the candidate is notified of the approval of his course of study.

A Bachelor of Arts of another institution of learning who enters Richmond College as a candidate for the degree of Master of Arts, must first satisfy the Faculty that his previous scholastic work is equivalent in amount and quality to that required for the B. A. deg r ee in Richmond College. He will then be accepted as a can didate for ~I. A., subje ct to the same conditions imposed upon grad uat es from this College. Bachelors of Arts who are deficient in any of the cour ses required here for B. A., will be giYcn opportunity to make up the deficiency.

Admission of Women.

Since 1898, the advantages of Richmond College have been open to women. The conditions of entrance are as follows:

1. In order to be admitted to matriculation, female students must have attained the age of eighteen years.

2. They must show by examination or otherwise, to the satisfaction of the President, that they are prepared to enter with profit at least three of the following classes, viz.: Intermediate Latin, Intermediate Greek, Intermediate Mathematics, Intermediate English, Senior German, Senior French, Junior Philosophy, Junior Chemistry, Junior Physics.

3. Those who fulfill these conditions may elect any of the courses offered in the academic departments of the College, and will be eligible to all distinctions and diplomas, and to the degrees of Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts, and Master of Arts on the same conditions that apply to male students.

4. Female students will be required to pay the usual College fees. No scholarships have thus far been provided for women.

5. The College authorities have not yet been able to provide dormitory facilities for women. Those who do not reside with parents or relatives must board at some place approved by the President. Arrangements will be made for students who request it.

6. A comfortable study hall is provided, for use of which an annua l fee of $2.50 is charged.

During 1898-'99 four young women matriculated. In 18991900 there were seven female students. In 1900-'01, and again in 1901-'02, six young women matriculated. In 1902-'03, there were eight matriculates, three of whom received degrees. The number of matriculates in 1903-'04 was thirteen. One young woman has received the degree of B. S. and four the degree of B. A. Most young women who enter Richmond College have previously received degrees from excellent schools. Properly prepared stu<lents will be cordially welcomed.

For further information address the President of the College.

Information Concerning Entrance.

Session.

The session opens on the Thursday nearest to the 22d of September, and continues thirty-eight weeks. The next session, therefore, will open September 22, 1904, and will close June 13, 1905. Exerc ises are suspended for one week at Christmas, and on two separate days in the spring-Easter ,Monday, and "Field-Day," for competitive out-of-door sports.

Students are advised to be present at the opening of the session. This applies particularly to students who enter Junior or SubJu nior classes. Students who are prepared for classes higher than Sub-Junior, and cannot enter in September, may enter with advant age at the opening of the winter or spring terms.

Selection of Studies.

The system of schools allows the selection by e-rery student 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, and will always encourage a regular and complete course. To this end the right is reserved to prescribe the studies of any who may be found unprepa red for classes higher than the Junior in Latin, English, and Mathematics. A committee of the Faculty will assist the Pres ident 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 studies in one or more schools should communicate with the President.

Students are assigned to the several classes in a school according to their apparent attainments; but the Professor in charge o-f

RICI-Il\fOXD COLLEGE.

a department will, at any time, transfer a student to a higher or lower class in that department when, in his judgment, such a change is desirable.

PreliminaryProFessionalStudies.

Attention is invited to the wide range of studies now offered in Richmond College. Here the student who looks forward to professional study in engineering, law or medicine may obtain not only general training, but will also have opportunity to make special preparation for his future work. The law student will find his special needs met in the subjects treated in the schools of English, History and Philosophy. Similarly the prospective student of medicine will find that the work in biology, chemistry, psycholo gy, and physics has afforded him direct preparation for his profession. By the introduction of mechanical and free-hand drawing and by the extension of the courses in physics, chemistry and mathematics, the College is in position to prepare students for advanced standing in the best technical universities.

Matriculation.

Every applicant for admission, upon arnvrng at the College, must report promptly to the President. 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 academy or high school, it is desirable that he should bring a testimonial from the principal showing what studies he has pursued and what progress he has made.

In case of reasonable doubt whether the applicant is prepared by his previous training to undertake collegiate work, the question will be decided by entrance examinations in any two that he may elect, or in all of the three Schools of English, Mathematics, and Latin. For entering the School of English the requirements are "a knowledge of Elementary English Grammar and ability to write with grammatical correctness"; for Mathematics, "a good knowledge of Arithmetic and Elementary Algebra through Sim-

ple Equations"; for Latin, "such 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.

When the question of preparation for College has been settled affirmatively, and the applicant has duly subscribed to the regulations, he will receive a permit to matriculate, and, upon presentation of this to the rrreasurer of the College and payment of the r equired fees, his name will be placed on the rolls.

For statement concerning the matriculation of women, see special announcement on "Admission of ·women."

The seating capacity of the hall is seventy-five. Prompt payment of bills is required.

RIOI-Il\IOKD COLLEGE.

Near the College are three of four boarding houses which furnish good table board at from $10 to $12 a month, and still others in which students can get furnished rooms, with fuel and light, for $18 to $20 a month.

At the request of the President, several families have consented to receive one or more students as boarders. Charges wiJ_lbe from $20 to $25 a month for furnished room with board and servant's attendance. Names and addresses of persons willing to receive .boarders will be furnished on application.

StudentLodgings.

Three dormitories on the College grounds furnish lodgings for two hundred students. Named in order of their erection, the se 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 building 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 kind s, and in every way to promote the social well-being of its members.

SomeEstimatesof Total Cost of a Sessionat R,ichmond College.

In order that all classes of students may judge for themselve s from the actual experience of other students, a series of questions was sent, near the close of 1903-'04, to six young men in Richmon d College, and their answers are given below. Each man was asked to state his total actua l expenses for the entire session of 1903-'0 4:, arranging the items under the following heads: 1. College fees. 2. Table board. 3. Furnishing of room. 4. Fuel and lights. 5. Laundry . 6. Books 7. All other incidental and personal expenses except clothing. 8. Grand total of expense, including clothing and railroad fare, for entire session. The replies were made withou t further suggestion from College authorities than is contained in the foregoing list of questions, and they are printed in the order in which they were received All include the refundable contingent of two dollars and a half.

I. JHr. A . is a law student, who entered Junior Law, English, and History, in September, 1903. He rooms in Ryland Hall. His answers in their order are: 1. $95. 2. $85. 3. $5 4. $8 5. $8.50. 6. $40. 7. $16 . 8. $300.

II. Mr. B. is a student for the ministry, also in his first year at College. He comes from Louisiana, which increases his expense for travel. He rooms in De Land Cottage, and takes his meal,; in a private family. His answers are: 1. $30. 2. $95. 3. $10. 4. $6. 5. $12. 6. $11. 7. $20. 8. $250.

III. Mr. 0. won a scholarship in the academy from which he came, and, therefore, does not pay the $70 tuition fee. He is in his fourth year at College, and is captain of the base-ball team. He rooms in Ryland Hall. 1. $27.50. 2. $90. 3. $2.50. 4. $8. 5. $9. 6. $10. 7. $3. 8. $150.

IV. Mr. D. is in his third year at College. ·He has a steamheated room in Memorial Hall, and, therefore, counts heating of room along with college fees. He also pays laboratory fee. 1. $113.50. 2. $90. 3. $8. 4. $2.25. 5. $13.50. 6. $18. 7. $52.50. 8. $322.75.

V. Mr. E. is in his fourth year at College. He occupies a single room in Memorial Hall, and boards in private family. He is a member of the foot-ball team. 1. $85 2. $125. 3. --. 4. $1.25. 5. $10. 6. $6. 7. $30. 8. $323.25.

VI. Mr. F. is a student for the ministry, and has his table board paid by the Education Board. He is in his first year at College, and rooms in Ryland Hall. 1. $27.50. 2. --. 3. $7.50. 4. $12. 5. $10. 6. $15. 7. $25. 8. $100.

It is believed that the students who replied to these questions a re in every way representative, and that their answers give a just statement of the total cost of a session at Richmond College. In considering the total sum, it is right that persons who must economize should consider ( 1) that this amount includes board and clothes, which must be provided under any conditions, and (2) that the expense is distributed over nine months and does not have to be paid all at once. The totals are thus seen to be moderate, and within the reach of many who sometimes speak as if college training were too costly for their resources.

Candidatesfor the Ministry.

:Ministers of the Gospel, of all denominations, and young men duly approved by their churches as candidates for the ministry, are admitted free of charge for tuition . They pay matriculation fee, and for fuel, lights, board, etc., the same with other students.

The Education Board of the Virginia Baptist General Associa- tion will render further assistance to worthy young men recom- mended by churches which contribute to the Board, and accepted after examination. For information on this matter, address Hon. J. T. Ellyson, Corresponding Secretary, Richmond, Va .
