The figures in parentheses indicate the number of exercises per week. To the obligatory work there should be added eight exercises in Elocution and sixty in Pedagog3' — the latter in the early part of the course. It is believed that the above four courses are equal in educational value and all require about twenty-five hundred hours of class-room work for their ocmpletion. In addition to the obligatory subjects the student will be permitted to elect any other for which in the judgment of the Faculty he is prepared.

Note — The following changes in the order of studies is to be noted : The Ps}-chology has been placed in the winter term of the Junior year, the Logic in the spring term of the same year. The History of Philoso- phy comes in the fall term of the Senior year and is followed by the Po- litical Economy in the winter term.

General Information.

Ohio University.

ORIGIN OP THE UNIVERSITY.

The existence of the Ohio University was provided for as early as 1787, in the purchase made from the Government of the United States by the Ohio Company of Associates. By the contract between these two parties, two townships of land were set apart for the purpose of a University, and placed under the care of the Legislature of the State. The University was organized under an act of the Legislature passed in 1804. Its Trustees are appointed by State authority, and the Governor of the State is ex-officio, a member of the Board.

LOCATION.

Athens, the seat of the University, is situated in the southeastern part of the State. It is easily accessible from the east and west by the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern Railroad and its branches; from the central and northern portions of the State by the Columbus, Hocking Valley & Toledo, and Kanawha & Michigan Railwaj'S. By these routes it is about one hundred and sixt}r miles east from Cincinnati, and sev- enty-five miles southeast from Columbus.

The lover of natural scenery cannot fail to be charmed with its pict- uresque surroundings. The winding valle}' of the Hocking and the wooded hills beyond, present a series of lovely views from the University, while the wide prospects, as seen at certain seasons from some of the neighboring summits, are seldom surpassed in quiet and varied beauty.

The site of the Universit)7 buildings is a spot of unusual attractions. The buildings occupy a slight elevation, extending east and west across the grounds. On the north front lies a park of about four acres, which contains a grove of fine forest trees, skirted along its northern limit by a row of magnificent elms. That portion of the grounds lying in the rear of the buildings is set apart for recreation.

CATALOGUE

THE BUILDINGS.

These are four in number. The main building was erected in 1817, and is the oldest college edifice, as the University itself is the oldest insti- tution of learning, northwest of the Ohio River. This venerable struct- ure made dear to many by a thousand strong and tender associations, and to many more by the names of eminent men who have studied or taught within its walls, has recently been remodeled, and while retaining the same general proportions, is, to all intents, a new building. It is admir- ably planned and well finished. With its slate roof and massive cornice, its lengthened windows and handsome colors, its convenient arrangement and pleasant appointments, it will compare favorably in appearance and adaptation to its purpose, with most college buildings in the West.

The two wing buildings contain the dormitories, and will accommo- date a few students. Most of the rooms formerly occupied by students have, however, been transformed into recitation-rooms and laboratories. The few that remain afford cheap and comfortable lodgings for }Toung men who, for any reason, prefer dormitory life to residence in a family. The room for many years iised as a chapel has been provided with suit- able furniture, and is now occupied as a school-room.

The new building stands on an eminence at the western side of the campus. In design it is unique and elegant ; the material is brick with cut-stone trimmings. Its dimensions are forty feet in width by seventy- six feet in length, and two stories in height. It has two fronts, one on the west, toward Court street, which is the principal street in the town, and one on the east, toward the main building. The first floor contains the chapel or assembly hall, two corridors and stairways, and a waiting- room. The second floor contains two society halls, with a committee room attached to each. The building has been occupied since the fall of 1883.

COURSES OF STUDY.

Such courses of study have been adopted as experience has proved to be brst adapted to the purpose of liberal education. The classical course, in fullness and arrangement, will compare favorably with that of the best institutions. The philosophical course is so arranged as to meet the wants of those who may prefer to study modern language and English branches instead of Greek, for which French, German and Eng- lish are substituted.

The pedagogical course is intended to fit young people for the pro- fession of teaching. A fuller statement of its aims and methods will be found in another part of this catalogue.

Those who are able to attend for a short time only, ma}- take a se- ect course, provided the studies they wish to pursue are such as they are qualified to take up with advantage. But no student will take a study

OHIO UNIVERSITY. 27

to which he has not been assigned, or discontinue a study, without per- mission obtained from the Faculty.

No students, except Seniors, and those taking a select course, are permitted to recite in the Senior studies of the third term, and the Senior examinations of the third term are limited to the regular Senior studies of that term.

LIBRARY AND READING ROOM.

In the study of Literature and History, the most important aid in addition to a good teacher, is a large stock of well selected books. In this respect the O. U. is liberally provided. The college and society libraries contain more than 12,000 volumes, a large part of which are of recent purchase. In addition to the books of a general character, the private libraries of the professors, which contain works of a more special character to the number of several thousand, are also accessible to the students under certain limitations. The reading room furnishes access to the latest contributions to all topics under current discussion. Some of the larger works are not only useiul for reference, but also for purposes of original investigation. Of the more important may be mentioned, a complete set of the Living Age in 190 volumes, of the Atlantic Monthly in 70 volumes, of the Nation in 55 volumes, of the Transactions of the American Philological Association in 18 volumes, and the American Philological Journal in 12 volumes. There is also a complete set of Valpy's Latin Classics in 159 volumes; of the Greek Classics in 150 volumes; Bursian's Jahres-bericht in 65 volumes; of Kuhn's Zeitschrift in 30 volumes, and of Iwan Mueller's Handbuch in 17 volumes; Among the dictionaries that have been provided are the Encyclopedic Dictionary in 14 volumes; Sander's Deutches Wceterbuch in four volumes. Littre's Dictionaire Francaise in five volumes, and Forcellini's Latin Dictionary in four volumes. There are complete editions of the German and French Classics, aggregating more than three hundred volumes, and all of the leading English poets and prose writers. Of Reference work the principal are the Encyclopedia Britaunica in 29 volumes; the new American Encyclopedia in 27 volumes; McCliutock and Strong's Cyclopedia in 12 volumes; The Schaff-Herzog Cyclopedia in three volumes; Pierer's Lexicon in 22 and Meyer's in 16 volumes; Baumeister's Denkmaeler des class. Altertums, in three volumes; also, Lalor's Cyclopedia of Political Economy; the Century Dictionary; the Oxford Dictionary as far as published, etc. A number of years ago the English Government presented the University Library with a lot of volumes in large folio, among which are Acts of the Parlia- ment of Scotland, Statutes of the Realm, Domesday Book, Rymer's Foedera, Parliamentary Writs, Proceedings in Chancery, and many others.

Among recent acquisitions are a set of Westermanu's Mouats- hefte, Harper's Magazine, the Century and Scribuer's Magazine, Reviu

2- CATALOGUE

des deux Mondes, the Dictionary of American Biography, the Edinburg Review. Mind, Das Paedagogium, etc.

It is the special aim of the manager of the Library to acquire as rapidly as issued all the leading works bearing on Pedagogy whether in German, French or English. A large number of works on this topic and the history of education is already on hand. The Libran- is so managed as to be accessible every day. The reading-room, in which are placed most of the reference books and all the periodicals, is accessible at all times. The reading of well chosen books not only tells the student what others have thought in even.' department of knowledge, but like- wise stimulates him to think for himseb. A good library is of itself a university.

APPARATUS AND CABINET.

Much valuable apparatus has been procured for the various depart- ments of Mathematics, Astronomy, Physics and Chemistry; and these subjects are illustrated by experiments. A Chemical Laboratory has been provided, which contains working tables supplied with gas and water, and affords even," facility for practical work.

A Biological Laboratory has also been fitted up with the necessary applicances for pursuing work in the departments of Biology.

A considerable part of the annual State appropriation is expended in the purchase of apparatus for the departments of Chemistry, Physics and Biology. In the selection, special reference is had to laboratory work by the students themselves. Additions are being constantly made to the apparatus. A fine set of surveying instruments of the most approved kind has recently been purchased for the students in field work. The cabinet affords important aid in the study of mineralogy and geology. But we are greatly in need of further contributions thereto, and to this end the assistance of the friends of the institution is greatly desired and earnestly solicited.

LITERARV SOCIETIES

There are three literary societies in the University — the Athenian, the Philomathean and the Adelphia — the last being composed exclusively of ladies. The members have opportunity 'to exercise themselves in dec- lamation, composition and debate, and to become familiar with the modes of conducting business in deliberative assemblies. The work of these societies forms a valuable part of college training, and all students are strongly urged to join one or the other. Xo student will receive a diploma who has not been a member of one of these societies at least a year.

METHODS OF INSTRUCTION.

Instruction is given both by recitation and lectures. The constant aim in both is to awaken interest in study, to aid in the acquisition of knowledge, and to develop the powers of thought and communication.

OHIO UNIVERSITY. 29

Some subjects can be better treated in lectures than others. The knowledge the student has of a subject is likewise a factor that is taken nto account. The lecture method is generally better adapted to advanced students than to those who are still in the elements. Alter the elementary principles have been thoroughly mastered from the text- book, supplemented with such elucidations as seem to be called for, the student is generally prepared to profit by the lectures of the teacher, and to grasp the wider outlook that is the result of a knowledge of a subject rather than of the contents of any single book, or even of several books. In the observational studies the learner is, as far as possible, brought face to face with the objects themselves under consideration. The classes in Botany and Geology make excursions into the surrounding country for the purpose of collecting specimens and deriving scientific knowledge from original sources. The classes in Suiveying and Mensuration have practice in the use of instruments in field work.

ADMISSION AND DISCIPLINE.

Entering the University will be considered a pledge to obey its lules and regulations. These are few and simple, appealing to the student's self-respect and sense of personal responsibility. Persons of known bad character or of lazy habits are not wanted and will not be retained unless they show a decided desire to reform. Students from other colleges must present certificates of honorable dismissal.

Candidates for advanced standing are, in all cases, examined to ascer- tain their thoroughness and proficiency; but certificates from other institu- tions will be accepted for the amount of work done in the classics.

In exceptional cases students are admitted to classes for a week on trial, withour examination, provided the Professors in charge are reason- ably certain that they can maintain their standing.

Ladies are admitted to all departments of the University on the same terms and under the same conditions as those prescribed for young men.

A record is made of the daily work of each student. When the standing of the student, as shown by this record and examination, falls below an average grade of 7-0 per cent., he must review the study. A record is also kept of each student's deportment. A low standing of either record is followed by private admonition, and notice is given to the parent or guardian.

Whenever the conduct of a student is such as to indicate that he is unfit to be a member of the University, either because of immorality or because of habitual neglect of his college duties, he will be dismissed. But, in the latter case, his parents will first be requested to withdraw him, and if not withdrawn within a reasonable time, he will be dismissed.

Stress is laid upon the fact that no young man or woman need hesi- tate to enter the Ohio University for lack of means, or because of inade-

30 CATALOGUE

quate preparation. The surest guaranty of success is an honest and determined effort to suceeed. If the student has learned nothing more during the years spent in college than how to study, and how to investi- gate any subject of which he takes hold, no matter how meager his knowledge may be at the start, he will be able to enlarge it with astonish- ing rapidity. His time thus spent, whether it be measured by terms or years, will have been wisely employed. Our age is sadly in need of men and women who have such a preparatory training for life's duties.

RELIGIOUS INFLUENCE.

Students are required to be present at pra}7ers in the chapel every, morning, unless excused by the Faculty, and to attend public worship on the Sabbath; but the choice of the place of attendance is left with the student or his parents. A student's prayer meeting is held once a week, at which attendance is optional. The University is not sectarian, and no effort is made to inculcate the doctrines of any particular creed or denom- ination ; but the utmost care is taken to promote sound and healthy reli- gious sentiments. We feel sure that nowhere do these matters receive more careful attention.

The founder of the Ohio University believed that "religion, moral- ity, and knowledge are necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind;" and it has been the steady purpose of those to whom has been entrusted the duty of carrying out his plans to insist on the inti- mate relation existing between the three. The good man, the good citi- zen is not he who is best informed, but he who is constantly inspired with the thought that his knowledge should be used for the good of his fellow-men. Knowledge without virtue is a curse and not a blessing. It is the constant policy of both Trustees and Faculty to inspire students with the love of knowledge, and with desire to practice religion and morality. Accordingly only those persons are invited to profit by the means of instruction here placed within their reach, who are willing to conform their conduct as far as possible to the teachings of the Bible. We expect students who have spent some time with us to depart not only wiser but also better than they came. If such is not the case it will not be for want of care on the part of the Faculty.

The degree of Bachelor is conferred upon students who have com- pleted any one of the four courses laid down in another part of this cata- logue. The fee for diploma is five dollars.

The degree of Master will be conferred upon graduates of this or any other college who give evidence to the Faculty that they possess such literary and scientific attainments as will make them worthy recipients of it, without reference to the time elapsed since graduation. The fee

OHIO UNIVERSITY. :;i

for this degree is ten dollars. For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy see another part of this Catalogue.

No degree will be conferred until all dues are paid.

Regular tuition in all departments, per term -7 00

Contingent fee for all students whether they have free scholarships or

not, per term 3 00

In addition to these fees there are the following extras :

Piano or voice culture, per term, two lessons per week § 10 00

Use of piano one hour per day, per term 3 00

Book-keeping and allied branches, per term 5 00

Stenography and type-writing, per term 5 00

Students who take more than the prescribed amount of Chemistry necessary to a degree will be charged $2.00 a term for the excess. It will be seen, however, that any one of our degrees can be earned with- out the payment of a single extra fee.

Those students who wish to pursue studies privately in the collegi- ate departments for which they wish to have credit toward the attain- ment of a degree will be required to pass an examination on each branch and for this examination an extra iee of $5 will be charged, which may, however, be remitted by a vote of the Faculty.

All tuition bills must be paid within the first thirty days of the term . No exceptions can be made to this regulation.

One student from each county of the State is admitted free of charge for tuition. Any one desiring to have the benefit of a county scholar- ship, must receive his appointment from the Auditor and Commissioners of the count}7, and obtain from them a certificate stating that he is of good moral character and an actual resident of the county from which he is sent.

All students, whether they hold a scholarship or not, are charged room rent and contingent expenses, and are held liable for any damage that may be done to their rooms.

Board can be obtained within a reasonable distance of the Univer- sity at $2.75 per week. By forming clubs, students may board at SI -To per week. Those students whose circumstances require it, are allowed to board themselves, by which means their expenses may be still further reduced; but this plan is not recommended, because liable to be prejudic- ial to health.

The actual cost of an education at the University will depend very much upon the disposition and habits of the students. The necessary cost is very low — as low as at any other institution affording equal advantages. It is earnestly recommended to parents not to furnish their sons or daugh-

32 CATALOGUE

ters with extravagant means. The scholarship and character of a student are often injured by a free indulgence in the use of money. Whatever is beyond a reasonable supply, exposes him to numerous temptations and endangers his success and respectability.

As persons frequently wish to know as near as may be, the cost of a student for one year at the Ohio University, the following estimates are here given :

LOWEST. HIGHEST.

Contingent Fee and Free Scholar- Tuition $30 00

ship $9 00 Board in private family 150 00

Boardin clubs 70 00 Room 00 00

Room 30 00 Books 20 00

Books 11 00 — —--

$200 00

S120 00

This estimate is for three terms or fort}" weeks, and includes all necessary expenses except washing, and a small fee for membership in the literary societies. The additional charges for students who take elec- tives in chemistry and for the special class in electricity are elsewhere noted.

MAPS AND CHARTS.

An excellent set of maps, chiefly those of Kiepert, intended to illus trate the physical features and political changes of the historical countries of Europe and the East has lately been added to the equipment of the in- stitution. These, in addition to those ahead}- on hand, afford an import- ant and well nigh indispensable aid to the study of History and Geog- raphy. The outfit in this regard is believed to be unusually complete.

THE EMERSON PRIZE POEM FUND.

The late W. D. Emerson, of the class of '33, bequeathed to the Trustees of the University the sum of one thousand dollars, the interest of which is to be awarded every second year to the student or graduate of the institution who shall write the best original poem. The interest of this fund will again be available in June, 1895. As at present invest ed it yields an annual revenue of $65. The first award was made in 1893 to Miss Carrie Schwefel.

ELECTIVES.

Each student in a regular course will be required to take at least fifteen class exercises per week, and no student will be permitted to take more than seventeen, except on permission of the Faculty. This permission will be given only on the written request of the student. Studen's in any one of the courses can select subjects in any one of the others below the class to which thej^ are assigned, but not above, except on approval of the Faculty, who must be con-

vinced that they have had sufficient preliminary training to pursue the elected study with advantage. As will be seen, about half the sub- jects after the Freshman year are elective But in addition to these a large number of others are offered for the benefit of those persons who wish to specialize still further along particular lines. It needs to be noted however, that they are not offered unconditionally. Regard will be had to the time at the disposal of the teachers and to the number of students taking any particular elective, as well as to their preliminary training. In all cases where a student's knowledge of English is defect- ive he must pursue this branch until his deficiencies are made up.

During the past few years a number of students both undergraduate and post-graduate have pursued advanced studies on special lines. With the recent increase in the number of the Faculty a larger number of stu- dents can be accommodated and in a larger number of branches.

ABOUT GETTING POSITIONS.

The President and the different members of the Faculty are frequent- ly asked what they can do in the matter of finding employment for stu- dents upon graduation, or even before. To this question the invariable answer is that they do not and can not conscientiously make any promises ; nor can any self-respecting body of men similarly situated. But their ex- perience and observation has been as to those who seek positions as teach- ers, that the demand for competent and thoroughly trained men and wo- men has generally exceeded the supply. Not infrequently students who give promise of success are induced to leave college before graduation by the offer of a tempting situation.

It needs to be kept in the mind that knowledge and education do not fit any person for any employment. These are indeed important— in fact essential ; but the personal equation is also important. Students who get along smoothly with their superiors and their fellows, and who make a good, or even fair, record in their classes, rarely fail of success in after life. On the other hand, those who are chiefly concerned to get a maximum of credit for a minimum of work; who are in constant fear lest their merits should not be duly recognized ; and who are more con- cerned to seem than to be, may expect to be estimated at their true value sooner or later.

In every occupation those who are willing to begin pretty near the bottom, no matter how well educated, but who are constantby on the alert to supplement their knowledge and training with the experience of prac- tical life, rarely fail of regular and fairly rapid promotion. More essential to success than mere intellectual ability, are trustworthiness, an honest and conscientious desire to do one's best, united to promptness and fidel- ity in the performance of duty. Students who do their best, whether under the eye of an overseer or not, rarely fail to make successful teach- ers, or professional, or business men, even when their class record has c. c. o. u.

34 CATALOGUE

not been particular!}- high. It is the observation of all teachers that students who are regular in the performance of their daily duties for sev- eral years, usually become good, sometimes even fine, scholars. He who has learned how to study, has an education within his reach.

It is the constant aim of the officers of the O. U. to make their stu- dents self-reliant, to cultivate in them the spirit of honor — in short, to make them nianly men and womanly women. They also make it a point to inform inquirers about the qualifications of candidates for positions as nearly- as possible as to the exact facts in the case, believing such a course to be the only just one toward ail the parties concerned. While they do not claim to be infallible, they have the satisfaction of knowing that in hardly a single instance have they misjxi.dged a student who has been under their tuition for two or more years. Xo student or prospective employer should assume that a recommendation will be forthcoming from the President or an}- member of the Faculty upon demand, merely because they have stood to each other for some years in the relation of teachers and pupils. On the other hand, the Trustees and Faculty will co-operate heartily to aid every worthy student in every possible way, both while in college and afterward.

POST GRADUATE STUDIES AND THE DEGREE OF PH. D.

The degree of Doctor of Philosophy will be conferred on persons who furnish evidence to the Faculty that they possess conspicuous scien- tific attainments. Such evidence may consist either in the written or printed work of the candidate, or in the examination he undergoes beiore the Faculty, or both. A thesis will in all cases be required, and it must be submitted at least six weeks before commencement. Great stress is laid upon the fact that no mere mastery of other men's labors, however complete, will entitle a candidate to the degree. He must give evidence of possessing, not merely a measure of natural ability, but that kind of scientific training which qualifies him to be an original investigator in his chosen department. He will be expected to know not only all that others know upon his chosen theme, but to have added some new discov- ery, however slight. If the subject chosen be literary, or historical, or philosophical, the matter should be so arranged and combined as to ex- hibit new results or justify some new inferences. Candidates are reminded that no mere essay or lecture of a popular character can be accepted. Under ordinary circumstances they should allow themselves at least a year in which to prepare a thesis; and under the most favorable condi- tions hardly less than six months will suffice. The shorter time will be sufficient only when the writer is already thoroughly familiar in a general way with the subject of which his thesis treats.

We do not require residence because we have found that this condition, though eminently desirable, debars some capable specialists

from receiving- the recognition to which their attainments justly entitle them. It is, nevertheless, the purpose of the officers of the O. U. that the degree of Ph. D., when conferred by them, shall have such a definite value as to commend the bearer to the consideration of competent judges.

We have frequently been asked to lay down a course of study for this degree. The Faculty have 'always refused to do so for the reason that it would only be continuing the college course somewhat further. One who is worthy of this degree ought to be so familiar with the field in which he proposes to work as to need but little guidance; he ought to know more of the particular subject that he has investigated than any one before him. He should himself be the best judge of the matter he can use to advantage bearing upon the special line of investigation he wishes to pursue. In view of these conditions it is evident that so few will apply to us for this degree as to make printed directions super- fluous. In short, we hold that the degree of Ph. D. should be granted to thoroughly mature students only. The Faculty will, however, be glad to correspond with prospective candidates and to make such suggestions as ,may seem proper under the circumstances.

It is not to be assumed, as a matter of course, that failure or inabil- ity to gain the degree indicates a general lack of capacity. A man may possess great ability, and yet not be a poet, or an orator, or a scientific investigator. Sometimes fine general scholarship, great intellectual breadth, or superior skill in the correlation and combination of facts dis- covered by others may incapacitate him for the minute examination of a single point. Sometimes, again, lack of time, or defective mental train- ing, which circumstances render it impossible to overcome, put out of the reach of persons the needed intellectual concentration which the scientific study of a subject postulates. While the Faculty do not design to make the attainment of this degree unreasonably difficult, they do intend that it shall signify thorough scientific training and not mere general scholar- ship, however extensive. A reading knowledge of at least one modern language will be an indispensable requisite. The fee for diploma is $25. In addition to this a fee of $5 mnst accompany the thesis.

SCHOLARSHIPS.

At their meeting in 1892 the Trustees established ten scholarships having a cash value of one hundred dollars each. These scholarships will be awarded by the Faculty to graduate students of this or any other college whose previous studies have qualified them to profit by the ad- vantages they afford. Their object is to encourage special study within comparatively narrow and well defined limits. In most cases the re- cipients will be required to teach one hour per day. These so far as at present determined are as follows :

1, Biology. 2, Chemistry. 3, Educational History. 4, English Literature. 5, Latin and Roman History. 6, Greek. 7, Philosophy.

8, Psychology. 9, Mathematics. 10. Physics. Candidates who intend to make application for any of these scholarships are requested to corre- spond with the members of the Faculty in whose department the sub- jects belong.

HONOR COURSES.

The Faculty have established a series of honor courses to which students will be admitted on the following conditions : The applicant must have completed the work of the Sophomore year or its equivalent ; he must show more than average capacity for the studies he wishes to pursue; he must be able to ."-peak and write the English language cor- rectly and with ease. The studies that constitute these courses are a good deal more difficult than the regular work of the last two years. Some of them are given in this catalogue.

Detailed Statement o5 the Departments of Instruction.

GREEK.

PROFESSOR SUPER, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR DUNKUE.

It is the aim of this department not only to teach students to read the authors commonly read in colleges, but also to make them acquainted as far as possible with the literature and life of the ancient Greeks. In teaching the language, especially that of Homer, constant attention is called to the words related to other languages, particularly Latin, Ger- man and English; and the laws of consonantal mutation are explained. Especial prominence is given, as the student progresses, to the following points: First, form; second, vocabulary; third, relation to cognate lan- guages; fourth, literature and history. The ear is regarded as equally important with the eye in the interpretation of words. When possible, some entire work of an author is read, as it is thought a more lasting and more satisfactory impression will thus be made upon the mind of the student than by the use of selections only.

It is a well-established principle in the study and teaching of the ancient languages that they should be made, as far as possible, the basis of a study of antique life. The Greek language embodies the experience of the most remarkable people of antiquity — a people whose achievements in literature, in the arts, and in government have been, and doubtless will continue to be, inexhaustible sources of profitable instruction. It is here claimed that a study of the Greek language, together with all that should property be taken in connection therewith, will contribute the most important element of a liberal education.

Before admission to the college class in this department, the student must be fairly familiar with the Greek grammar and have read three books of the Anabasis and three books of Homer's Iliad.

The Freshmen read about seventy-five pages of Herodotus in Good- win's Greek Reader; nearly the same number of pages in Winans' edition of Xenophon's Memorabilia; and the Apology and Krito of Plato entire-

Works of Reference: Hadley's and Goodwin's Greek Grammars' Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses, Liddell & Scott's Greek Lexicon, Anthon's and Smith's Classical Dictionaries, Autenrieth's Homeric Dic- tionary, Ginn & Heath's Classical Atlas.

EuECTiVES. — Students who wish to pursue the study of Greek be- yond the regular course can be accommodated with three exercises per week for three terms, the subjects to be studied, or the authors to be read, to be selected by the professor. The following is the general pro- gramme: As the Freshman year is devoted to a review of the Syntax, the Accidence of the Greek language in general, the student is prepared

38 • CATALOGUE

to take up the stuo^ of masterpieces, either in oratory, philosophy or poetry, with special reference to the characteristics of each. With these ends in view, one or more terms may be given to one or more of the Attic orators, to one longer and two shorter Platonic dialogues, or to some of the principal dramas. One elective term in Greek history is offered, and one in Comparative Philology.

LATIN.

PROFESSOR EVANS, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR COXA WAY.

To enter the Freshman class, students are examined on four books of Caesar, seven orations of Cicero, and six books Virgil's iEneid.

Romse Viri Illustres, Sallust's Catiline, and selections from Ovid may be substituted for an equivalent of the other authors.

During the first part of the Freshman year attention is directed to Latin Rhetoric as exemplified in the works of Cicero and Livy. During the latter part of the year, the class reads the Odes of Horace and studies Roman Histon*. Throughout the whole year there are frequent exer- cises in sight reading and in turning into the original English render, ings of Caesar, Eutropius, and Nepos.

In the whole work the endeavor is to impress on the minds of the students that Latin is the language of a moral and practical people who left their mark on the world in law and government; and that "Rome is the center of our studies and the goal of our thoughts; the point to which all paths lead, and from which all paths start again."

Hand-books: Allen and Greenough's or Harkness' Grammar; Al- len's Roman History; Harper's Lexicon.

Kiepert's wall maps of the Roman Empire and of various countries, Ginn and Co.'s Classical Atlases, Gow's "Companion", Smith's Dictionary of Classical Biography, and Smith's and Seyfert's (Nettleship and Sandy) Dictionaries are freely accessible to students for reference in their work.

Electives: Each year one of these courses is offered to students who desire to continue the study of the Roman people, beyond the course that is required.

1. Lati?i:

Teience, Cicero, Lucretius, Horace, Juvenal, Tacitus, Paterculus, and Quintilian are studied according to the tendency or the choice of the class.

The students have access also to Simcox's, Teuffel-Schwabe's, (Warr's translation), and Browne's Histories of Latin Literature, and to Guhl and Koner's Life of the Greeks and Romans.

2. Roman History:

A whole year is given to the study of the military and political his- tory of Rome, special attention being directed to the causes of the struggles between the Patricians and Plebeians, and between Rome and

OHIO UNIVERSITY. 39

Carthage; and to those which made Rome the conqueror of the world, as well as to those causes which led to the decline of the Republic.

Books for study and reference: Epcchs of Ancient History; Lanci- ani's Ancient Rome in the Light of Recent Excavations; The Great Captains — Hannibal — by Dodge; Duruy's and Mommsen's Histories of Rome, Long's Decline of the Roman Republic, and Labbertou's Histori- cal Atlas. 3. The Roma?i Constitution and Outlines of Roman Law:

This course is of interest to students who look forward to the study of law, as a study of Roman law helps to get a clear idea of the funda- mental conceptions of Jurisprudence. The study of the development of the Roman constitution and laws will help to understand how all consti- tutions and laws grow. In the last two courses described, students are required to consult Roman authors in addition to the authors already mentioned.

PROFESSOR HOOVER,

The course in pure Mathematics embraces nine terms, distributed as follows: Algebra, three terms; Geometry, two terms; Trigonometry

40 CATALOGUE

and Surveying, two terms; Analytic Geometry, one term; Calculus, one term. Of these, three terms, including Algebra to Series and Plane Geometry, are required for admission into the Freshman class; the remain- ing six terms are included in the College Department, covering the Freshman and Sophomore years.

See also courses of study and electives.

In teaching the pure mathematics, especial attention is directed to the value of the study as a means of training the logical faculties. Con- stant stress is laid upon the steps of reasoning which underlie the va- rious processes; and it is insisted that the principal business of the col- lege student of mathematics is to apprehend these clearly.

Power to apply the principles is tested by a wide range of exercises drawn from various sources, and adapted to the capacity of the student.

A part of the Spring term in the Freshman year is devoted to the subject of land surveying and to other applications of Trigonometry. This work is important as giving good examples of the utility of mathe- matical science in its practical applications. The department is in pos- session of an excellent set of survejdng instruments, including a transit, level, rod, and other necessar}' appurtenances. These are in frequent use by the students.

Electives. — In this department the following electives are offered : Differential Equations, Statics and Dynamics; Elliptic Functions; Spher- ical Harmonics; Quaternions; Determinants; Mathematical Optics; Least Squares; and Astronomy.

RHETORIC AND ENGLISH LITERATURE.

PROFESSOR BOUGHTON.

The work of this department is intended to accomplish two objects: first, to cultivate the art of expression; second, to give the student a pract- ical knowledge of English and American authors.

Preparatory to collegiate work, the student must show proficiency in the use of English, and must have a knowledge of the elements of Rhetoric. In other words, he must have had the following work or an equivalent: Reed and Kellogg's Higher Lessons in English, Waddy's Elements of Composition and Rhetoric, and Genung's Practical Rheto- ric.

The required work in English is as follows: For the B. S. degree, English IV., First Term; for the A. B. or B. Ph. degrees, English IV.; for the B. Ped. degree, English IV., and the First Term of English V. The other courses given below are electives, open only to such students as are prepared for the work.

ENGLISH I. PRACTICAL JOURNALISM.

This is a three hour course extending through the year, but students of any grade may enter the class at any time. The work consists in gathering current news, educational items, and literary notes and in pre- paring this matter for publication. Every student is a reporter for some newspaper published in the vicinity of Athens, and is held responsible for a certain amount of copy weekly.

BIOLOGY AND GEOLOGY.

PROFESSOR CHAPIN.

Students in all the preparatory courses have been required to pursue the subject of Physical Geography in this department, though the study is treated in as broad a manner as time and facilities will permit. Work in Physics is not presupposed, but, as some knowledge of physical laws is essential to a fair comprehension of the subject matter, several lessons are devoted to this branch at the outset, accompanied by a few experi- ments. During the term, talks are given upon animal and plant life, and some simple geological principles are discussed. For practical work in Meteorology, each student is required to keep a daily record of the bar- ometer and thermometer, prevailing wind, etc., and to prepare barometric charts for examination.

The work in Zoology being assigned to the winter term, use is made of alcoholic and dry specimens of animals that have been collected ear- lier in the year from the streams and fields of this locality, to which are

44 CATALOGUE

added a liberal supply of marine types. The student enters the labora- tory at the very start, and such types are placed before him for examina- tion and dissection as will lead him, step by step, to correct habits of ob- servation, by which he is enabled to comprehend the close relations of one form of life to another. As this work is in progress, the subjects under examination are freely discussed, and, on the completion of each dissection, the student is examined upon the work done. Drawings are required of the different parts and organs, in all cases. After a course in the laboratory, the subject of classification receives more careful at- tention, all the branches of the animal kingdom being taken up in their order.

The course in preparatory Physiology aims to give a good general knowledge of Anatomy and Hygiene, and the functions of the different organs. Occasional dissections are performed before the class, and some laboratory work is required of all. In the collegiate course, this subject is studied by more advanced methods. Osteology receives close atten- tion, and each student is expected to do much work in dissection, besides making a practical stud}- of a few histological structures Physiological principles and theories are discussed according to the latest investiga- tions, and experiments will be performed in the laboratory, which is well equipped for physiological investigations. The department is further supplied with a valuable skeleton and superb French anatomical models. ( For more advanced work in Anatomy and Physiology, see Preparatory Medical Course.)

Elementary Botany is required in the Preparatory Pedagogical Course only, though many from the collegiate courses pursue this study. Work begins with an observational stud}- of germinating plantlets, all students being required to sow the seeds of several representative plants, and to make careful drawings of the different stages of growth. Leaves, roots and stems are studied from the objects as far as practicable, and careful dissection of certain typical flowers precedes the regular work of Systematic Bocany. As time permits, the student is given some insight into the microscopic structure of plants by practical work in the labora- tory. An herbarium of not less than fort}- plants will be required of all. In the collegiate course, the student is set to work at once with the mi- croscope, the object being to secure a knowledge from actual observation of the general anatomy and physiology of plants. This is followed by work upon the Cryptogams, and all will be encouraged to make some special investigations for themselves.

The University is thoroughly equipped for work in General Biology, a required subject in all the collegiate courses. A new biological labora- tory has just been completed and fitted up with modern apparatus, in- cluding a steam sterilizer, fine optical appliances, dissecting instruments, water bath, paraffine bath, etc. The student is given practical training in Microscopy, and is taught the processes of staining and how to pre-

w

OHIO UNIVERSITY. i;,

pare permanent mountings. It is the intention to give a thorough knowledge of the structure and mode of growth of typical plant and animal forms, and the laboratory work will be accompanied with lectures, in which the composition of organisms, methods of reproduction, devel- opment and other biological subjects will be discussed.

At an early stage of the work in Geology, such objective study of minerals is pursued as will enable the student to comprehend the com- position of rocks, which is next taken up. To supplement the text, lectures are given from time to time upon dynamical, structural and paleontological Geolog}', and these subjects are further studied in the field. Work is also offered in determinative Mineralogy. A large cabi- net of minerals is open at all times to the student of Geology.

PREPARATORY MEDICAL COURSE.

It is desirable in many cases that students looking forward to the medical profession should, after spending four years in collegiate work, be admitted to advanced standing in the medical schools, whereby a year's time may be gained. With this object in view, the department ot Biology now offers such work as is, in conjunction with Physics and Chemistry, recognized by the best of these schools the full equivalent ot a year's professional study. The departments of Physics and Chemis- try furnish abundant opportunities for the work required in that direc- tion. The biological work is, from the very outset, suited to the needs of the medical student. To this end, it begins with General Biology, to be followed by a comparative study of animal forms and of phanerogamic and cryptogamic plants. The development of some vertebrate is closely studied, and preparations of embryos are required of each student. Throughout the course, close attention to laboratory work is insisted upon. Practical instruction is given in the preparation of microscopic ob- jects, and the student is taught the technique of section cutting and mounting. A practical knowledge of Human Anatomy is obtained from the careful dissection of some mammal, the many resemblances to the anatomy of man, and the few differences, being continually referred to.

46 CATALOGUE

Arrangements have been made with the large Insane Asylum located in Athens, whereby students of the University are allowed to attend post- mortem examinations and to assist in the work. Newly purchased ap- paratus will afford excellent means for experimental work in Physiology. The laboratory is provided with modern apparatus for accurate investiga- tion of disease germ-, and the student is therefore required to do practi- cal work in the all-important subject of Bacteriology.

Upon the completion of this course, an}- student may be admitted to the third year of the four years' course of stud}- in the Starling Medical College, Columbus, Ohio. Valuable concessions will also be granted by other leading medical schools.

Among the works of reference to be found in the library may be mentioned Gray's Anatomy, Quain's Anatomy, Holden's Anatomy, Lan- dois and Sterling's Physiology, Foster's Physiology, Foster andLangley's Practical Physiology, Foster and Langley's Embryology, Hertwig-Mark's Text-book of Embryology. Minot's Human Embryology, Wilder and Gage's Anatomical Technology, Wiedersheim's Comparative Anatomy and Sternberg's Bacteriology. The following subjects are comprehended in this course: General Biology, Zoology, Mammalian Anatomy, Human Anatomy, Histology, Physiology. Structural and Systematic Botany, Vegetable Histology, Embryology and Bacteriology.

PEDAGOGICS AND PHILOSOPHY.

It is the aim of this department to prepare students for the profes- sion of teaching. Such preparation requires (1) a vivid conception of the true end of education: (2) a knowledge of, and a practical acquaint- ance with, the right method to be used in attaining that end; (3/aknowledge of the principles upon which those methods are based: (4) a true concep- tion of educational values; (5) abroad range of scholarship and general culture. Every opportunity is improved to impress upon the students the fact that the object of education is not primarily the communication of knowledge, but symmetrical development of the powers of the mind. It is a prominent object of instruction in the history of education to make the history of nations illustrate on a grand scale the fact that defective and stunted types of civilization are largely due to false educational ideas. The belief is that students will be helped in this way, as they can in no other, to a true conception of what education should be, and to a realiza- tion of its transcendent importance. It is an equally prominent object of instruction in the history of education to help students to gather from the theories of the great educational reforms those principles which may fairly be claimed to have universal validity, and to have a place in the science of pedagogy.

As a further preparation for the science of education, psychology is studied with great care. After a careful and critical study of the history

OHIO UNIVERSITY. 47

of education and psychology has familiarized students with the true idea of education and the principles upon which intelligent efforts to attain it must be based, instruction is given in the science of education — which is but the systematic and orderly statement of the principles with which at that point students are already familiar — and also in methods.

If the primary end of education is development of faculty rather than the communication of knowledge, the question which Spencer re- gards as first in logical order in the theory of education, " what knowl- edge is of most worth?" is not first, or even second. The question is, what faculty is of most worth? What stress shall be laid upon the cul- ture of the various faculties of the mind in order to attain the true end of education, the symmetrical development of the entire man? And the second is, what is the education value of the various studies in the curric- ulums of our schools and colleges? In other words, what is their capac- ity when rightly studied to contribute to this end? This is deemed an important part of the theory of education, and the attempt is made to give students as definite an idea of it as its great difficulty and com- plexity admit.

And no opportunity is neglected to impress upon students the fact that the highest success possible to the teacher can not be obtained by the pedant, however scholarly he ma}- be, and however profoundly he may have studied the science and art of education. The effort is con- stantly made to make them feel that to succeed as teachers, they must be men with a broad range of sympathies, interested in all that concerns men.

While these ideas ma}7 be said to shape the methods of instruction in this department with all classes, very different degrees of prominence are given to them under different circumstances, the attempt being made to have regard to the needs and development of students. The Depart- ment of Pedagogy, as at present organized, has two courses — a short course about equal in length and thoroughness to that of the best state- normal schools in the country, and a long course, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Pedagogy, and fully equal in thoroughness and culture value to any of the other courses offered by the college. The great ob- ject of instruction in the Department of Pedagogy, in the shorter course, is to give students as vivid an idea as possible of the true value of edu- cation, and a living knowledge of the being to be educated — "the living, learning, playing child." Text-book instruction in psychology is con- stantly supplemented by reports of observations of children, and students are daily asked to report observations that illustrate the matter in hand — or indeed observations of children in general. The attempt is made to interest students in children as deeply as possible, since all true methods of teaching have their roots in the nature of their minds.

The history of education in the shorter course aims, (1) to interest students in the lives and labors of the pioneers of educational thought,

48 CATALOGUE

and (2) to emphasize those theories that seem to be of a practical charac- ter to-day.

Pedagogy proper, in the shorter course,, is largely a stud}- of methods. The subject is taken up in the last term of the year, after psychology and the history of education have been pursued, and it is one of the chief aims to fix. and organize the practical suggestions and hints that have been made in connection with those two subjects.

In the longer course, the department aims to keep constantly in mind that it is dealing with those who are to be leaders of the educa- tional thought. The aim is to teach Psychology with such thoroughness that those students who afterwards become Superintendents may teach it intelligently to their students, and at the same time learn all that it has to teach concerning the principles that underlie all correct methods of teaching.

Students are urged and stimulated to accept nothing on the authority of the text -book when it can be at all avoided. An important aim of the instruction is to encourage them to verify as far as possible the statements of their author — to induce them, in a word, to study the subject, and not simply a book about the subject.

The history of education in this course is divided into two parts : First, a stud)- of educational ideals, and ideas and theories and systems and institutions of the past as they have appeared in the great nations of the world; and second, a study of contemporaneous systems and institu- tions— state and city school systems in this country, American colleges and the systems of England and France and German}-. It is a chief aim of this department to train students of education to develop an interest in, and an aptitude for, the study of the subject that underlies all others. Students are made to feel that the varying educational systems and insti- tutions all over the world are so many experiments in the great educa- tional laboratory, and that society has the highest possible interest in knowing precisely what these experiments teach. It is made a part of their work to make studies of educational subjects, the results of which are read before the class and thoroughly criticised by them.

The study of the history of education proper is to a large extent a study of the intellectual development of the world, since the history of education is the history of one of the most important factors of that de- velopment.

The science of education in this course aims to take a survey of the entire subject — aims to put students at the point of view where they have a keen appreciation of such practical problems: as courses of study, school architecture, superintendence, etc., as well as to give them a clear grasp of the principles and methods that naturally follow from the laws of the mind. And here, as everywhere, the aim is to keep as close to life as possible — to illustrate the various conclusions reached, by an appeal to the actual experience of some part of the world, wherever that is possible.

POLITICAL SCIENCE.

PROFESSOR EE ROSSIGNOL. ASSISTANT PROFESSOR HIGLEY.

Instruction in the principles of Civil Government is given in the Preparatory Department. The text-books used are named below, but they serve for little more than to indicate the order in which the various topics are studied. The public is just now especially interested in ques- tions of political economy and in the larger one of sociology. Conse- quently manj- books and shorter articles are constantly appearing in the public prints, many of them worthy of the attention of the student who wishes to keep abreast with the progress of thought in these matters. The standard works are, however, carefully studied and the views therein expressed, examined and discussed with approval or dissent.

A right understanding of the questions arising from the subjects con- nected with this department is regarded as of the highest moment to those who will hereafter become members of the body politic; and no pains are spared to equip them for a right understanding of the social problems in the solution of which they may hereafter be called upon to assist.

Among the periodicals especially to be recommended to the students in this department are The Forum, 1 he N. A. Review, The Political Science Quarterly, and The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Lalor's Cyclopedia of Political Science is at all times accessible. It is the constant aim of the teaching in this department to impress upon students the importance of investigating political and social questions in the light of all the facts bearing upon them, with minds as free as possible from partisan prejudices and preconceived theories.

PHYSICS AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING.

ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR ATKINSON. ASSISTANT PROFESSOR SNOW.

1. Elementary Practical Physics.

This course is designed for students in the Classical, Philosoph- ical and Pedagogical courses, of whom one term is required in the Soph- omore year. The course consists of a series of ph}-sical measurements in the laboratory directed towards imparting clear ideas of the fundamental laws of mechanics, and of general phj-sical processes such as measure- ments of length, area, volume and mass, specific gravity, tenacity, elas- ticity; also outlines of the subject of heat. The laboratory work will be supplemented by lectures and recitations on the methods and principles involved. In addition to giving the student familiarity with the principles and methods of physical measurements, particular attention is paid to the training of the senses to accuracy in observation and manipulation, full notes being taken in the laboratory. Lectures twice a week, labora- tory twice a week, of two hours each.

2. General Physics.

This course is required throughout the Junior year of the Scientific course, and may be taken as an elective by students in the other courses, provided they have taken those studies required regularly of students in this course. In all cases, unless previously taken, the Junior course in Chemistry must be begun in connection with this work in Physics. No student can enter upon this course until he has completed the mathe- matics of the first two years of the Bachelor of Science course. Students electing Analytical Mechanics will be excused from the first term of physics. The instruction is given by means of oral and written recitations with experimental demonstrations. Barker's Physics is used as a text book, but frequent references will be given to works bearing upon the subjects discussed. The first term is devoted to kinematics, dynamics, the con- ceptions and properties of matter and. sound; the second to heat and light, and the third to electricity and magnetism. A portion of each term is spent in the laboratory in finding experimental proofs of the general principles discussed. The object of the course is to give accurate con- ceptions of the general principles of the science, and to find their bearing on the law of the conservation of energy. ■->'. Physical Laboratory .

A practical laboratory course in heat, light and sound is open as an elective to those who have taken Course 1. Glazebrook and Shaw will be used as a guide. Two times a week, two hours each, for the second term. 4- Heat.

5. Light.

Instead of Course 4, and on the same conditions, this course may be elected. Preston's Theory of Ught or Tait. Two hours a week for the second term. G. Physical Laboratory.

This course is offered during the third term to those who have taken Courses 2 and 3, and consists of exact measurements in electricity and magnetism ; for which purpose there is a thoroughly equipped laboratory. Stewart and Gee, Kempe, and Arrton will be used constantly as laboratory references. Three times a week, of two hours each.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING.

The rapid development of electricity for the purpose of light and power, and its general introduction into nearly all sections of the country, have created a great demand for men well qualified in this branch of engineering. This profession now offers more inducements to young men, and the chance of rapid promotion is greater than in almost any other field ; this condition of affairs will doubtless prevail for many years to come. The thoroughly educated man who combines practical experi- ence with the theoretical knowledge of electricity and magnetism is in special demand, as many of those now engaged in' this vocation are but poorly fitted for its duties. The University possesses a model incandes- cent light plant, used for lighting the buildings and campus, with the design of extending to the student practical training in the construction, operation and care of electrical and steam machinery.

The plant consists of a twelve horse-power automatic engine built by the Racine Company, of Wis., a horizontal steel boiler of the latest type, made by the Krie City Iron Works, a Thompson-Houston and a Westinghouse dynamo. This plant also furnishes a power to the West- inghouse motor (on the U. S. system) which drives a Gould duplex pump by means of which the University is supplied with water. The switch-board is completely equipped with rheostats and instruments for measuring current and potential. The switches and fittings on the board have been constructed b}' the students in our own shops. The wiring and general work of insulation is done by them as well ; they are thus afforded an excellent opportunity to obtain practice in putting in electrical plants.

The electrical profession requires a certain amount of mechanical ability and training in the use of tools and machinery for working both wood and metals. Besides the ordinary carpenter shop, the department is provided with two shops, a metal and a wood-working shop. These are supplied with wood and metal working lathe, and an unusually com- plete outfit of tools to which additions are being constantly made. As will be seen from the outlined course below, while mastering the use ot

56 CATALOGUE

tools the student is taught the construction of useful pieces of apparatus for laboratory purposes. The ability thus to construct apparatus and machinery, to preserve the proper relations of the several parts in fitting them together, and in overcoming difficulties that may arise in embodying one's ideas, has a high educational value, aside from its practical aspect.

The theoretical portion of the work is indicated below. This in- cludes, also, summary work with references to the leading treatises on electricity and magnetism and the machinery employed for lighting arid power. Periodicals, as the Electrical Review, Electrical Engineer, Elec- trical World, Power, Scientific American, and Popular Science News, are kept on file, and are included in the seminary references. This work is collateral with a series of lectures extending through the year. For the practical plant work each division of those in this course is now on duty one night of each week. Each engineer is required to keep a record of steam pressure and of the current of each machine at regular intervals. Through the kindness of the Athens Electric Eight and Power Company, there is cooperation with the city arc light plant, and an additional night of each week is spent in learning its care and operation under competent supervision. Here also steam readings are taken every fifteen minutes, and the amount of coal consumed and water evaporated is measured accu- rately, and estimates made of the cost in coal per pound of water evapo- rated; also the amount of coal used per indicated horse-power per hour, and the fuel cost for each lamp that is maintained. The student is thus from the beginning taught to operate an electric light plant both with efficiency and economy.

Requirements : This course is elective as a whole, and it is ex- pected that those electing it, unless they have previously taken a portion of it, shall pursue the course regularly. None will be admitted to the course without sufficient mathematical preparation. The required num- ber of hours must be made up from one of the regular courses. Mathe- matics is required up to and including Trigonometry, though analytical Geometry, Calculus and Analytical Mechanics are strongly recommended. The Junior courses in Physics and in Chemistry are also required. When the regular electrical course and the above required studies are completed, a certificate will be given showing the character of the work done, and where it is deserved, a recommendation of the student's ability and proficiency in theoretical and practical electricity. The following is an outline of the course as at present constituted ; this, however, is sub- ject to such changes from time to time as the rapid developement of the subject may dictate:

treated in the text-book and the work done in the laboratorj-, including questions put both to and by the student. Problems in writing are also given out from time to time to make the student familiar with such cal- culations as the chemist needs. The laboratory work is considered an im- portant part of this course, as being the best means of gaining a clear under- standing of the fundamental ideas of chemical science; of the connec- tion between Chemistry and Physics and of general laws regarding the combination of the elements and their inorganic compounds. Incidental mention is also made of the various applications of chemical laws and products to the ends of the arts, medicine, and manufactures.

Text-book. Remsen's Introduction to the study of Chemistry, (Briefer Course.)

Recommended for reference, Roscoe and Schorlemmer's Elements of Chemistry, Blcxarn's Inorganic Chemistry.

Analytical Chemistry: The work of this course, which will require three terms for its completion, naturally falls into two divisions:

1. Qualitative Analysis, four laboratory exercises per week during one term. After gaining further practice in chemical manipulation and a wider knowledge of the compounds and reactions of the common ele- ments, the student advances to a systematic course in Inorganic Qualita- tive Analysis. Ores, alloys, mixtures of salts and technical products are examined both in the dry and wet way.

2. Qualitative Analysis, four laboratory exercises per week during two terms. In this division a prolonged course follows in Inorganic Qualitative Analysis, both gravimetric and volumetric. The cpmposition of ores, minerals, fertilizers, technical products, etc.. is determined. At the same time the study of general Inorganic Chemisty is continued during each division of this course, with one or more reviews each week.

Text-books, Eliot and Storer's Manual of Qualitative Chemical Analysis, Classen's Elementary Qualitative Analysis, Remsen's Advanced Course in Inorganic Chemistry.

Organic Chemistry: The work of this course consists of four lab- oratory exercises per week for three terms. The same method is pursued here as in the study of general Inorganic Chemistry, great stress being laid upon the laboratory work. The compounds of carbon are prepared and examined with reference both to their physical properties and chem- ical relations. There will be one or more reviews each week. Here advanced reading will be recommended, and the student instructed in collecting and condensing from different sources on individual subjects.

A fair reading knowledge of German will be looked for in the student.

MODERN LANGUAGES.

KATE CRANZ, INSTRUCTOR.

Modern Languages are taught from a practical standpoint. Our ob- ject is to secure three things ; facility in translation at sight, and as wide a range of reading as is possible in the time allowed; some study of the liter- ature of each language ; and practice in translation from English into the foreign tongue, with a training of the ear by conversation.

The required work in this department is six terms of German, and three of French, for all students in the Philosophical and Scientific Courses; and, if elected, three of German or French for all in the Peda- gogical Course.

All advance work in German is based on a thorough knowledge of the grammar and an ability to read narrative prose with ease. No abridged method of any kind is used, and all examinations are held in German. The work for the ensuing year is as follows:

ELOCUTION AND ORATORY.

CATHERINE A. FINDLEY, INSTRUCTOR.

The design of this department is to make good conversationalists, good readers, good speakers. The ideal speaker must not only instruct his hearers, but he must persuade them and move them to action. His power, apart from the importance of his subject, lies in his personal mag- netism, which depends largely on the measure of his sympathies. That which the speaker has to impart to his audience of Ms persona/ experi- ence at the time of speaking persuades his hearers and moves them to ac- tion.

The constant effort made in the reading lesson to put ourselves in rapport with the author, to see what he sees and feel what he feels, de- velopes and controls our own imaginative and emotive powers, Our voices and our bodies become instruments of communication between us and our hearers. Now, then, comes the need for training. Believing that the voice is simply a medium for the soul's emotions, we develop it to its greatest extent of power, flexibility and beauty, that it may more powerfully set forth those emotions.

But we do not stop here. There is a language more eloquent than words — the language of the eye, the hand, the plastic form. Nor can these be separated from the voice. When we are stirred to- speak, the face lights up, the chest expands, the whole body becomes infused with new life, and speaks a language more eloquent than words.

That master of expression, Francois Delsarte, spent his life in the study of human nature as exhibited in unconscious action — especially of the Southern nations, who gesticulate more freely than we do — and from that study he deducted a method by which we train the whole muscular system to respond to every change of the soul's emotions.

The course then, will include, in connection with the study of liter- ature, the development of the voice and the training of the form accord- ing to the Delsarte method.

'First Term. — Physical culture, development of the voice, inflection phrasing and expressive reading, using Curry's Classic Selections as a text-book.

Second Term. — Development of the voice, articulation and pronunci- ation, with use of the same text-book.

Third Term. — ^Esthetic gymnastics for relaxing, energizing and di- recting muscular force; gesture begun; the use of a dramatic classic as a text-book.

Fourth Term. — Gesture continued with use of a dramatic classic as a text-book.

Two declamations or orations per term will be required from each student.

An elective consisting of the dramatic rendering of a Shakespear- ian drama will be offered during the middle term of the Senior year to those who have completed the courses in Literature and Elocution.

VOCAL AND INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC.

myrtle stinson, Instructor.

The Board of Trustees have recently added a course in Music with- out determining precisely what its relation to the other departments should be. This course for the present is as follows:

a. Chorus and Sight-reading.

b. Voice Culture.

c. Piano and Theory.

OHIO UNIVERSITY. 65

Under the first, the work is distributed into elementary instruction on the lines and spaces as representing sounds; notes as representing quantity; the clefs, rhythm, the diatonic major scale. Further lessons in dictation in connection with black-board exercises for the purpose of familiarizing the student with the simplest succession of tones and rhythmic form. Next, the interval system. Here progressive exercises are used in order to familiarize the pupil with the various intervals, and particular attention is given to correct intonation and purity of tone. Finally, the theoretical and practical development of the major and minor scales, followed by exercises in the use of both modes.

With students of the second grade the matter in the first is recapi- tulated. This is followed by solfeggio exercises in two parts on the compositions of ancient and modern masters. Pupils of the third grade, study three and four part compositions in which special stress is laid on the acquisition of a correct pronunciation of both vowel and consonant sounds.

Under the head of Voice-culture, instruction is given upon the cor- rect position while singing; the position of the mouth, tongue and larynx; the manner of attacking and leaving a note; the manner of forming pure tones in the different registers, and of connecting tones without slurring. Next in order are respiratory exercises in which the pupil is taught how to acquire a long, noiseless and easy breathing b)' slow inhalations and exhalations. These are followed by exercises in scales, runs, trills and other embellishments. The laws of expression as set forth in the works of old and modern matters are also studied. East in order is the expres- sion of vowel and consonant sounds. The pupil is taught how to pro- nounce distinctly without injuring the purity of the vocal tones.

The requirement for the pupils in vocal music is limited to class A. Students' recitals will be given in the college chapel one term, in which all who are qualified will be expected to take part. The value of such practice need not be dwelt on here.

DRAWING AXD PAINTING.

SARAH STINSON, INSTRUCTOR.

It is the aim of this department to have a practical knowledge of art, and to lead pupils, through the cultivation of their observing powers, to an appreciation and love of the beautiful as found in nature and as ex- pressed in the handiwork of man. As form studyT and drawing furnish the foundation for this course of instruction, special attention is given to that part of the work. Xo pupil will be allowed to take painting who has not had at least three terms of drawing. Charcoal is the medium chosen, and all drawings must be made from the object. Pencil and pen and ink may be used in the advanced grades. Instruction in out-of- door sketching will be offered during the spring term to those who have completed five terms in charcoal drawing.

The course of instruction is as follows:

DRAWING.

STENOGRAPHY, TYPE-WRITING AND COMMERCIAL BRANCHES.

MABLE K. BROWN, B. PH., AND CHARLES M. COPELAND, INSTRUCTORS.

Owing to a large demand tor this kind of instruction arrangements have been made with efficient teachers in these branches to take charge of this w*ork. For the present, however, their departments form no portion of the regular courses of stud}*. More detailed information will be given in a circular to be published later.

PREPARATORY DEPARTMENT.

ELI DUNKLE, A. M., PRINCIPAL.

This department is designed to prepare students for the regular course of the college. Students are also received who wish to pursue elementary studies, even though the}* may have no intention of entering upon one of the higher courses.

Candidates for admission to this department must furnish satisfac- tory evidence of good character, and must pass examination in Geog- raphy, Arithmetic as far as percentage, English Grammar as far as syntax, and all studies of the courses lower than those which they wish to pur- sue. Much of the instruction is given by the regular college professors.

Persons who have certificates from count}* examiners in Ohio will be admitted without examination in the subjects named in the cer- tificates. But students who expect to graduate from the Normal De- partment, must give evidence that they are thoroughly familiar with the common school branches. Opportunity is offered every term for review- ing some or all of these. Additional information of interest to those who contemplate entering this department will be found in other parts of this catalogue.

SUMMER TERM.

Experience has shown that a considerable number of young persons desire to profit by such opportunities for instruction as can be offered during the months of July and August. Accordingly, a summer term will begin July 9, 1894, and continue seven w*eeks. For this term of seven w*eeks the tuition will be six dollars, or for less than the entire term, one dollar per week. Most of the classes in the Preparatory De- partment but especialh* those in the common branches, will be organized

during this term and will receive the same attention as during the rest of the year. Those students who have done advanced work or propose to do so, but who feel the need of reviewing the elementary branches will do well to avail themselves of this opportunity. Students who desire to pursue advanced subjects during this term will be accom- modated as far as possible ; and will receive credit for them in the same manner as if taken at any other time of the year. For further particu- lars address
