II. This act shall be in force from its passage
The Endowme nt.
Attention is called to the conservative financial management of Richmond College and the consequent safe foundation upon which is rests. Its real estate is without encumbrance. No bequests have been lost. Special trusts have been carefully protected.
Those who are disposed to help its educational life may find in these facts encouragement to give liberally of their means. The college is undoubtedly in the VE}rybest condition to guarantee security and to render all trust funds immediately effective.
Appeal is made especially for the strengthening of the general endowment. This fund is used directly for the support of teachers, and is not sufficient for the ordinary demands of the Institution. The endowment of separate schools, or undesignated gifts which shall increase the general fund , are greatly desired. -
The Trustees are anxious to enlarge the scientific equipment, to endow the new department of History and Literature , to provide for a department of Expression, to establish several Instructorships, to found Fellowships, and to increase their Aid Funds for meritorious students. The day bas come when demands are pressing for broad and generous equipment on every line of college work. The field of choice for givers is wide, and every one who is blessed of God with means should seriously consider how His cause may be best promoted through Christian Education. There is nothing more enduring than the well-endowed college, and names linked with it will neYer clie.
Bequests .
There are many reasons why friends of education should bestow their gifts during their lifetime. But since it is not always possible for intending benefactors to withdraw from their business such sums as they would like to giYe, it is respectfully suggested that one of the best ways to help a co ll ege is through the form of bequests. l\Iany friencls of Richmond College should at once arrange to make a bequest to the Institution. In this way the future growth and usefulness of the College can be fully assured.
Form of Bequest s.
"I give and clevise to Richmond College, located at Richmond, Virginia, the following real estate , to-wit (ltei-e describe the said rral estate, us lo ki11d, (}111111til11,a11d si/11r1tio11).

Of Interest to New Students.
The next session begins September 20, 1900.
New students who inform the President of the hour of their expected arrival in Richmond, will be met at train on September 19th or 20th by a member of the College Y. M. C. A., wearing the College colors, crimson and blue.
Students usually furnish their own rooms. The articles brought from home are one pillow and cases , one quilt, one pair blankets, sheets , towels, and toilet articles.
Rooms will be assigned whenever application is made. The best are usually engaged before opening of the session. A committee from the College Y. M. C. A. will be in the President's office to assist new students in the selection of rooms, room -mates, and to show them other courtesies.
Matriculation begins on Wednesday, September 19th. On Thursday evening the students are publicly welcomed by representatives of the city and the College. After this meeting, a reception is tendered the new students by the College Y. M. C. A. College classes are organized on Friday.
Interesting reunion exercises are held by the Literary Societies on Friday and Saturday evenings.
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 Ohristian character. Its tests of scholarship are rigid and the , tandard of graduation is unusually high, while the physical, social, and religious welfare of its students is regarded as uo less important. •
Loc a tion .
The 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 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, rerninds the student that t ho 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 te mptations to young men away from home are but li ttle gre ater 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 t here be found so large a proportion of active Christians, or such strong and pervasive moral and religious influences. Richmond lies midway between t h e severe cold. of the X orth and the relaxing heat of the South. The nine months of the scholastic year have few days either too

Grounds an d B uildings.
Tl1e College buildings stand in a beautiful pnrk of thirteen acres, situated in the ""(•stern and 1uo:-;telentte<l part of the city. This i,; the re:-;icknc' seetion, and abounds in homes of wealth an<l culture. Thc,,e natural adYantages haYe lJeeu supplemented by rntrnic-ipiil impr0Yeme11t,.;, incl11<l.i11ggas and cleetric lights, a water suppl:·, and a thorough ::;ystem of drainage.

Directly in the rea~ of the main building is a Dining JiaJJ, with all needful appJiances, 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 ananged in pairs, study and chamber, each Dxl:1:; also two residences of professors. On the other side are three such residences. Thus the students are brought all the time ,vithin the personal influence of at least fi vc professors and their famiJies, and the social, re1igiou1:,,and literary life of the College is Ycry greatly promoted.
New Buildings.
On S ovcmber 17, J SDD,two 11cwbuildings were opened. These buildings arc kno\\'n as Science Hall and Memorial Hall. The former cost, with equipment, thirty thousand do1Jars; the latter t\\'ent., - thousand dollars. Both are built of prc::;sed brick, with granite trimmings.
Scieucc IIaH mea sures 120x51 feet, and is three stories abo,·e a basement. The well-lighted basement contains boilers for heating three buildings ·\\'ith steam, and also shops and apparatus rooms. The twenty-seven rooms aboYc the basement arc all devoted to instruction in the natural sciences. Ou the first floor are three laboratories for chemistry, a 1ecture 1iall, a library-room, a balanceroom, professor's office, and two supply rooms for chemicals and apparatus. The first year laboratory accommodates fifty students at one time. The second year laboratory has desks for twenty-four. The lecture-room has tenaced seats ananged in semi-circles, with places for one hundred and twenty-five students.
The arrangements in the department of physics are

similar to those made for ch emistry, each school occupying an entire floor. Rooms are provided for instruction in biology, •but the department is not yet eqnipped . .All lecture-rooms and laboratories are ventilated O)' the most improved system. The entire building is supplied in eYery part with water, gas, and electricity. X o trouble hss been spared to make this hall one of the best of modem bnildings for the pnrpose of teaching laboratory sciences.
:Memorial Hall was erected to furnish lodgings for students and also to commemorate the liYes and deeds of Virginia Baptists who haYe worthily contended for the principles of the denomination. Besides rooms named for individuals, both men and won1en, the Hall eontc1ins a spacious fire-proof room, with memorial wimlows, in special remembrance of those heroic preachers who nffered during the struggle for religious liberty in Yirginia The room will be placed in eharge of the Virginia 13aptist Historical Society.
The buiklil1g also contains lodgings for se,·enty students. Occupants haYe their choice between steam heat and open grates, and arc furnished with tuL and sho1Yer baths.
Organization.
The College is composed of nine academic seliools, or departments, and the professional school of La1L Instruction is also given in Expression, J3iblical Literature, and Physical Culture. The Faculty consists of a president an<l nine professors, each responsible for the efficient conduct of hi s own school. The president has general oYersight and direction of the discipline of the College, but refers to the Faculty cases calling for serious penalt)·.
The system of school s 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 shape of Certificates or School Diplomas.
Discipline.
The deportment of a Christian gentleman is the standard to which every 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 a copy furnished to each matriculate. Any who wantonly violate these regulations, habitually neglect their duties, or are not regular and punctual in attendance on lectured and recitations, will be required to withdraw from Coliege.
Religion.
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, except on Saturdays. All students resident in college building s are required to attend a " Saturday Conference" of professors and students at 8 :30 A. M. This conference is opened or closed with brief religious exercises. The object of the conference is to promote the social and moral wellbeing of the college conumrni t,v.
Courses of Instruction.
I. School of Latin Language and Literature.
Professor Ji i.tcllell.
The course of 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 required such acquaintance with the elements of Latin grammar as will enable one to begin to translate with profit.
The SuB-JumoR and JUNIOR Classes are persistently drilled in the forms and the syntax of the language, with due attention to quantity. Th~ INTERMEDIATEand SENIOR Classes continue to give needful attention to grammatical principles, while they are required to attain a good vocabulary and to imbibe the spirit of Latin literature by an extensive course of reading, somewhat --variedfrom year to year. In all the classes the student's progress is tested, and his powers of analysis and composition are cultivated by written exercises in rendering English into Latin and Latin into English. The disciplinary power and cultural value of the study of Latin are equally emphasized.
TEXT-BOOKS.

11.-School of Greek Language and Literature.
Professor Kellogg.
The aim of the school is threefold: (1) to enable the student, by the mastery of idiom, vocabulary and syntax, to read Greek with accuracy and readiness; (2) to give a clear insight into the life, genius and achievements of the Greeks; (3) to cultivate habits of accurate expression and a sense for Greek literary standards.
The Elementary Courses and the cour se in Advanced Composition are given each year. Other advanced courses are given once in two years, being arranged in alternating or rotating groups of two courses each, one of which is given each year.
The work as thus laid out aims to meet the needs of four classes of students: (1) those studying Greek for th e sake of mental discipline and general culture; (2) those wishing to lay the foundation of a thorough knowledge of Biblical Greek; (3) those desiring to make Greek accessory to other ancient or modern languages or to the science of linguistics; (4) those aiming at future specialization in Greek or in Greek and Latin.
No choice or election is allowed the student in the Sub-Junior and Junior Classes. For either the Intermediate or Senior year in Greek, any combination of advanced courses equivalent to four hours per week throughout the year, will be accepted; provided (1) that
the course in Advanced Composition must be among those offered in the Senior year; (2) that some special reading or topic for investigation will be assigned to each Senior, and (3) that additional special reading or investigation may, if fully equivalent, be substituted for one hour of class-work in the Senior year. •
For the points toward college graduation assigned to each class or year in Greek, see Group I. under " Degrees." Credit for additional courses taken after the Senior year in Greek, must pe arranged with the President.
Supplementary or parallel reading is required in each course, and is subject to examination at the same time as the regular class work.

III.-School of French and German. Professor Boatwright. Dr. Beclcer.
French and German are the languages taught. The aim is to give the student a knowledge of vocabulary and grammatical structure sufficient to enable him to read their literature with understanJing and pleasure; secondarily, to teach him to speak these lang1rngcs, and to understand them when spoken. In junior classes, modern authors are read, and lang1rnge is taught as an art. In senior classes, more attention is paid to the classics and to the scientific study of lang11age structure. :Much time is devoted to tbe history of Literature.
The course is yaried 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 were used during the past session:
FRENCH.-J1mior Olass.-Fire Hours a Week.-Edgren's French Grammar; Grandgent's French Composition, Parts I. and II.; Longman's Conversational French Reader; HaHivy's L'Abb6 Constantin; Augier's Le Gendre de M. Poirier; Corneille's Le Cid; Moliere's Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme; Contes Choisis de Daudet.

Parallel.-Life and works of Schiller; Maria Stuart.
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. The parallel reading for 1D00-1901 will be as follows:
Senior Frencl!.-French Letter Writers; Life and Letters of Madame de Sevigne.
Senior German.-Life and Works of Lessing; Nathan der Weise in German; Laocoon in English.
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 Yerbs will be required. Previous drill in conversation is also Yery desirable.
The College library, besides containing much French and German literature, regularly supplies students of this School with foreign periodicals and other modern language publications.
IV.-School of English Language.
Professor Pollard.
The objects of this school are: (1) to giYe the student a mastery of the English language in speaking and writing; (2) to give a scholastic acquaint:mce with the native speech; and (3) to make the English tongue a means of leading the student on to a creditable knowledge of comparative philology, and of the science of langm1ge.
The JuNIOR CLASS studies, in the first half session,
Higher English Grammar, giving special attention to etymology and grammatical analysis; in the second half session Rhetoric, with a particular reference to clear and forcible expression in speaking and writing.
The SENIORCLASS studies during the first half session Anglo-Saxon and Early English, and traces the growth of our language from its earliest stage to its present forms and constructions; during the second half session this class studies the general principles of linguistic science, and notes the relation of the native tongue to other languages.
In both classes written exercises are required. Students are earnestly advised to take the whole English course. But if any insist on omitting the lower class, they must show by examination, or otherwise, that they are prepared for the more advanced work.
OUTLINE OF THE COUHSE.
Junior C/ass.-Meik l ejohn's English Grammar; · Newcomer's Elements of Rhetoric; Lectures by the professor on subjects related to those studied by text-book.
Senior C/ass. -Em erson's History of the English Language; Smith's Old English; Corson's Chaucer; Linguistics-lectures by the professor.
Reference Books: Peile's Philology; Whitney's Life and Growth of Language; Skeat's Etymological Dictionary; other Dictionaries-Webster, Worcester, Stormonth, Century, Standard, and books in College Library as occasion may arise.
V.-School of Mathematics. Professor Gaines.
This school offers a course of pure Mathematics extending over four years, or divided into four classes. The work of the lowest class pre-supposes a thbrough knowledge of Arithmetic and of Elementary Algebra through simple Equations.
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 investiga-

tion; 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 is Lelieved 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 acquired sufficient lmo,dedge of Mathematics and mathematical methods to be able to continue his studies in the graduate courses offered in the leading universities of America.
Sub-Junior.-Algebra through Quadratic Equations and Plane Geometry (five times a week). Text-Books: Hall and Knight's Elementary Algebra; Chauvenet's Geometry.
Junior.-Algebra, beginning with Quadratic Equations; Solid Geometry; Plane Trigonometry (five times a week). Text-Books: C. Smith's Algebra; Chauvenet's Geometry; Wentworth's Trigonometry.
Intermediate.-First Half Year.-Conic Sections including the method of trilinear co-ordinates (three times a week). Second Half Year.-Elementary course in the Differential and Integral Calculus (twice a week), and in the Theory of Equation (once a week). Text-Books: C. Smith's Conic Sections; Byerly's Calculus.
Senior.-First Half Year.-Advanced course in the Differential and Integral Calculus (three times a week). Second Half Year.Lecture courses on special topics varied from year to year (three times a week). One, or at most two, of the following courses will be given each year. (1) An elementary course in Differential Equation. (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. (6) 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 mathematicians who have principally contributed to this development.
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.
The subject of Land Surveying is taught in an additional class, open to students who have finished the junior class. Much of the time devoted to this class is spent in the field, thus giving the student familiarity with the instruments used and considerable practice in doing the field work. Te:ct-Books: Gillespie's Land Surveying.
VI.-School of Physics. Professor
Winston.
The School of Physics embraces the several subjects usually grouped under this title, or under the practicallyequivalent 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 relations to the several states of matter, and their practical applications; the phenomena and laws of Sound, Light, Heat, Magnetism and Electricity, and the affiliations 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 JUNIOR CLASS, known also as the class in Experimental Physics, begins with the elements, and pursues 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 made to combine in a course of modern Physics the freshness and attractiveness of an experimental and practical treatment, with the rigorous accuracy, the
RICHi.\IOND COLLEGE.
scientific method, and the exact discipline which may form the basis for future scientific work. It is required for admission to this class that the student shall have an acquaintance with Elementary Algebra, and Plane Geometry, equivalent to the completion of the course in the SubJunior Class of Mathematics.
Four lectures a week and three or more hours of laboratory work in this class.
In the SENIORCLASSthe 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 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 lectures a week and three hours of laboratory work in this class.
TEXT-l!OOl(S.
Junior.-Gage's Principles of Physics will be the principal textbook, with others for reference. Gage's Physical Measurements was the laboratory manual used last year.
Senior.-Carhart's University Physics, with reference to Barker's Advanced Physics, Daniell's Physics, and Watson's Physics. The Laboratory Book used last year was Ames and Bliss's Manual of Experiments in Physics.
Astronomy.
Heretofore the course in Junior Physics has embraced a brief study of Celestial Physics or Astronomy. This was studied mainly as affording on the largest scale illustrations and applications of physical principles. The iast six or seven weeks of the session were given to it.
The full introduction of Laboratory work consequent npon 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 teaching of Astronomy in the College. It will remain in connection with the Department of Physics, but will be made hereafter an independent class.
Under this new arrangement the class in .A.stronomy will begin at the opening of the second half session, in Feb-. ruary, and continue to the end of the session. Two lessons a week will be given, with the addition, probably, of some exercises and some Laboratory work. The course will be general and elementary, and will be adapted especially to s tudents having some acquaintance with the elements of }.fathematics and of Physics.
TEXT-BOOKS.
Young's Elements, or Todd's, or Howe's Astronomy-with Lectures.
VIL - School of Chemist r y.
Professor Hunter.
In the study of the subjects embraced m this School, two distinct but entirely compatible objects are kept in view. The first is to familiarize the student with the more common and important substances found in nature, both organic and inorganic, their characteristics, the changes in properties always attending their combinations and decompositions, and the definite and invariable laws and conditions under ·which each of these changes occurs.
The second object is to cultivate the power and habit of patient and critical observation, to develop facility and skill in detecting resemblances and differences , and from data thus gathered to draw conclusions which are subsequently to be tested by experiment. In this way one

acquires skill in classification and in inductive reasoning, and gains an accurate conception of what science implies.
The first floor of the new Science Hall opened in N ovember, 1899, was arranged specifically for the Department of Chemistry. Besides store-rooms and balance-rooms, it contains laboratories and lecture-rooms provided with the best appointments. The stock of apparatus is being largely augmented by purchases from abroad this summer. The subjects offered in this school are taught in two classes, each extending through the session of nine months.
JumoR CL.ass-Course J.-In this course the general properties of the elements and their more common compounds, as well asthe fundamental laws and theories of the science, are carefully considered. For the most part, the elements are studied in groups, as suggested by the periodic system of Mendeleef. Facts concerning their occurrence and association in nature are presented, and their preparation and properties are explained-illustrated by experiments in class. Reference is made throughout the course to important applications of chemical facts and principles to industrial and manufacturing arts.
In the Laboratory students repeat, for the most part, experiments already witnessed in class, thus acquiring by actual contact a skill in handling apparatus and a knowledge of the properties of elements and compounds themselves.
Course JJ.-During the latter part of the spring term a brief but concise course in Geology is given, special emphasis being laid on the dynamic agencies now acting on the earth as furnishing the key with which to unlock the history of its past.
SENIORCL.ass.-Three courses embrace the subjects taught in this class, the object in all being to give a more complete knowledge of chemical phenomena and laws, and
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.
t heir practical applications, than is possible in the Junior class. Only students who have completed the work of the latter class, or its equivalent, ·will be allowed to enter this class. In the Laboratory students devote themselves to practical analysis, both qualifrvc and quantitive, and to the preparation of typical inorganic and organic compounds. Excursions to some of the manufacturing plants in the city will give the students opportunities to see the practical uses made of chemical principles learned in class .
Course JIJ.-During the fall session a wider survey is taken of the chief inorganic elements and their compounds; and the fundamental la-vs of chemical combination, the atomic theory, and the Yalence hypotheses are considered, ancl their historical development traced. This course is p_rerequi site to courses four and fh-e
Course JY.-This course is concerned especially ,vith t he applications of the science of Chemistry to the purposes of every-clay life . It deals minutely with processes dependent on chemical principles i1wohecl in the · more i mportant arts ancl manufactures which contribute so largely to the development of our natural resources, such as mining, metallurgy, bleaching, tanning. In co~nection with this course a series of lectures will be given by J\Ir . ]<'. B. Carpenter, chief chemi ,c1t of the Virginia-Carolina Chemical Company, on the " Chemistry of Fertilizer ~Ian ufacture."
Course r.-This course is confined to a study of the (' hemistry of Compounds of Carbon. The aim is to give a general view of tho subject, and to show the relations of t he hydrocarbons to their various derivatives, and study the re actions by which these relations may be experimentally shown. The thorough classification of organic compounds makes this one of the most interesting of all the fields of Chemistry.
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
Courses four and five are giYen during the spring term of alternative sessions, and course five will not be given during the session of 1900-'01.

Junior Class.-Remsen's Chemistry (Briefer Course); Dana's Revised Text-Book ,of Geology.
Henior Olass.-Newth's Inorganic Chemistry (Longmans & Co.); Stoddard's, or Congdon's, Qualitative Analysis; F. E. Thorpe's Outlines of Industrial Chemistry; Remsen's Organic Chemistry. A number of reference books are provided by the College, such as Watt's Chemical Dictionary (4 vols.), Mendeleef's Chemistry, Roscoe & Schor.Jemmer's Treatise on Chemistry, Sadtler's Industrial Organic Chemistry, and Roberts-Austen's Metallurgy.
VITI.-School of Philosophy.
Professor 'l'homas.
The subjects assigned to this School are di-vided among three classes. The Junior Class embraces Physiology, Psychology, and Ethics. The Intermediate Class studies Logic and the History of Philosophy. The Senior Class studies Political Economy and Sociology. A mastery of the subjects studied in the Junior Class is essential to obtaining the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Study of the subjects embraced in the higher classes is Yery important as a part of liberal education, and, though of ten overlooked, is of great practical value, both as to thought and conduct.
In the JUNIORCLASSthe course of psychological development, as seen in its history, is briefly traced, and considerable attention given to the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. The subject will be pursued as a science, and according to scientific method3. In seeking to ascertain the results of Experimental, Comparative, and Child's Psychology, careful effort is made to discriminate between what is prely conjectural, possible, or probable, and what seems to be established. Since, however, Psychology, like
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.
5 I
other sciences, brings us face to ;face with metaphysical problems, and the human mind cannot be restrained from such inquiries, no hesitation will be felt in discussing these problems .
:Much time is devoted to Ethics, theoretical and practical. Among the matters receiving particular attention may be mentioned the different modes of investigation which have been pursued, the more important ethical theories which have been advanced, the progress of ethical thought, and the value of Christian ethics.
In the INTERMEDIATECLASSLogic, deductive and inductive, is first studied as extensively and ·as thoroughly as the time at command will allow. The remaining portion of the session is devoted to History of Philosophy. The aim is to familiarize the student with clear conceptions of the problems of Philosophy, to trace the general course of Philosophic thought, to examine critically the more im1io1:tant teachings of Epoch-making Philosophies, with special attention to living issues of to-day.
The SENIORCLASSstudies Political Economy and Sociology.

IX.-History and Literature.
Professor Chandler.
History is taught with the desire of presenting an insight into the past, so that the mind may be disciplined for the

judgment of the present. History is regar<led 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. ]Tacts are studied to discoYer principles and. to explain social phenomena, and tho method , of instruction is from cause to effect. History is Yic\\·ed more especially from the standpoint of politics and economics, for history is pro12erly the account of the eYolution of social organization.
Literature is the record of man's thought, while lh,tory is the story of his thought applied, and the results produced by its application; therefore the stud~" of History and Literature go hand in hand, Frequently some literary monument, Beowulf, for instance, constitutes the only reliable source from which we can judge of races in their early stage of deYelopmcnt. Literatme, therefore, will be emphasized as a necessary adjunct to History, and as a medium for interpreting the best in life) because it shows man's thought and feelings.
This School is divided in to three classes, as follows:
1. GExmu ..L HrsTORY.-Ethnology will be outlined, followed by a discussion of such topics as primifrrn man, the beginnings of ciYilization, and the origin of civil society. The civilization of the non-Aryan peoples will then be taken up, after "·hich the history of Greece will be treated chiefly from the standpoint of politics, literature, and art. The main facts of Roman histor)' ·will be noticed, but especially its wonderful system of jurisprudence, its social and economic problems, and such institutions as have influenced the political and reli_gious life of :Modem Europe. The history of Europe wil 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 ReYolution;
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.
and (6) Xationality and Dcmocrncy as realized in the Kineteenth Century. The last three months of the session will be deYoted to the study of Politics.
2. ExoLIRJI A-XD AimmcAx IIrsTORY.-A rapid glance will be gi-ven to the political history of England, but more time ,rill be consumed in tracing the growth of the J~nglish Constitntion in its succcssiYc stages, from the ::\Iagna Oharta to the Reform 13ills of this centmy. The close connection between English 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 lT11itedStates history. ::\luch attention will be paid to the historical geograph;v of our country. Arncriean politics will rccciyc a Yery full treatment, and a earcfol anal;rsis of our Constitution and form _ofgoycrnrncnt will be madc. This course will be of great help to those who intell(l to study law.
3. LtTELL\.'ITJrn.-This course is deYoted to English and American Literature. The history of literature and selections from the most important writers will be studied sirnnltmworn,ly, and cYcr~· effort will be made to deYelop the critical facnltics of the student. ~\s far as possible, the comparatiYe method will be used. The com·sc in English Literatme will deal briefly with the period from Alfred to Elizabeth, after which the liYes and most important "·orks of the chief writers from Shakespeare to Austin will be considered. Only a summary ·will be made of American Literature, with selections from our best writers. Essay-,n-iting will be emphasized, and much collateral reading will be assigned. Distinctions in Junior English, or an equivalent, will be required for admission to this class.

Expression.
Mr. Hamberlin.
The work done under this head aims to develop e:ffectiveness in delivery of speech.
Briefly stated, the work is as follows:
1. Exercises for developing repose, grace, and strength of pantomime; openness of throat; correct breathing and lung-power; freedom, purity, modulation, and volumP of tone.
2. Intelligent comprehension of an author's meaning, so that his thought may be correctly phrased and emphasized.
3. CultiYation of the imagination, to give emotional coloring to expression.
4. Practical delivery of all styles of thought.
The principles of the science and art of expression (taken from Hamill, Curry, Shoemaker, Shaftsbury, Shakespeare, Delsarte, and X ature) are dehrnred to the class by lecture.
English Bible.
Dr. 'l'uppcr.
The aim of this study is to giYe, in a two-years' course, knowledge, as thorough as practicable, of the Scriptures as the inspired Ti,Tord 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 o:f human learning, and is due to Him "·who lighteth every man that cometh into, the world." The instruction is imparted by lectures, on which the student is examined during the course of study as well as at the close of each half session. The course is adapted to students of all grades, with no reference to any particular profession in view. It is free to all matriculates of the College The only text-book is the English Bible. " Coleman's Historical Text-Book of Biblical Geography " is impo rtant for reference. The College Library furnishes Yaluable "·orks for consultation.

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 courts-Federal, State, Municipal-held in the city of Richmond, and the large and wellselected libraries-law and miscellancou -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 AngloAmerican 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, International Law. There are two classes in the School. The following schedule is an exhibit of the subjects and by ·whom taught in each class, and the text-books used for the basis of instruction

The Faculty reserve right to rearrange subjects between classes, and change text-books as may be deemed beneficial to. the School.
The instruction is thorough and is given through textbooks and lectures, with clai]y oral examinations. Th e course is arranged for two sessions, and the student i,; adYised to de.-ote that time to it. But one, earnest an d diligent, who has, before entering the School, becom e somewhat acquainted ·with the nomenclature of the law , may, by devoting the entire session of nine month::; to th e study of the subjects embraced in the course, acliicYe th e degree of Bachelor of La,y in one sc sion.
The hours for meeting the classes (behwen -:I: P. ::\L and 7 P. M ) are chosen with the Yiew of enabling th e student (who desire it) to attend all the lectures in th e course; also, to give an op1)ortunity to law students wishing to take classes in the Academic Department of th e CoJlege (and vice 1:e1·sa)to do so; and also to snit the conYenience of young men in business ,d10 can only gi1'e ,t part of the clay to the study of law.

The lectures upon all other subjects than tho::;e for ,d1ich Certificates of Proficiency haYe been conferred mu::;t be attended , and the exaininations (oral and written) thereon stoo d during the session the degree of B. L. is appl ied for.
To acquaint the student with tho details of practice in the drawing of deeds, wills, and other instruments; th e institution and maturing of suits at law and in equity; th e preparation of pleadings; and the conduct of causes in court, a Moot Court is organized about the middle of th e session, in which satisfactory work is expected to be clone to obtain the d~gree of Bachelor of Law.

Student Organizations.
Literary Societies.
Two literary societies, kno,Yn as the :Mrr IG:MA Rm> and PmLOLOGIAN,are maintained by the students, and are recognized as agencies of great value in scholastic training. They are provided wiah elegant halls where they hold weekly meetings for declamation, debate, and other literary exercises. Besides tl1e joint celebration at Commencement, each society arranges for at least one public debate during the session. The two societie unite in publishing the .Messenger,a monthly magazine of about seventy-fi.ye pages. A generuu::; riYalry 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. Thn medallists for 1899-1900 were as follo,Ys:
Joint Orato1,)s.-T. Ryland Sanford, Philologian. ioint Writer's.-L. L. Jennings, ~fu Sigma Rho. ~fu SrmrA Rno.

Students are assigned to the seYeral classes in a School according to their apparent attainments; but the Professor will, at any time, transfer a student to a higher or lower class ·when, in his judgment, such a change is desirable.
Matriculation.
Every applicant for admission, upon arrrnng at the College, will report promptly to the President. If he bas been a student at any other college, he must 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 or other teacher, showing what stmlics he has pursued and what progres she has made.
In case of reasonable doubt ·whether the applicant is prepared by his previons 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 arc "a knowledge of Elementary English Grammar and abilit:v to write with grammatical correctness"; for :Mathematics, "a good knowledge of Arithmetic and Elementary Algebra through Simple Equations"; for Latin, "such acquaintance with the elements of Latin Grammar as will enable one to beFin to translate with profit." If found well prepared in a11 these the applicant can enter either these Schools or others; if 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 has been settled affirmatively, and the applicant has dul~- subscribed to the regulations, he will recefre a vermit to matriculate,
