7. All rights, claims, privileges, and appurtenances now belonging or any wise pertaining to "the Trustees of Richmond College," as heretofore incorporated by act of the General Assembly, passed March 4, 1840, are hereby transferred to "Richmond College."
IL This act shall be in force from its passage.
The College has just closed a happy financial year, and the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees was characterized by unusual confidence and enthusiasm. The movement to raise the sum of $75,000 in bonds to meet a $25,000 offer from the American Baptist Education Society has proved successful, and already the first year's instalment on these bonds has been fully paid. It is gratifying to report also that the United States Government has at last recognized the claim of $25,000 made by Richmond College on account of damage done to its property just after the close of the Civil War, and the full amount of this claim has already been paid into the College Treasury.
The Trustees of Richmond College are greatly encouraged. The friends of the institution have evinced during the past year remarkable zeal in promoting the pa.tronage and adding to the financial resources of the College. This noble generosity has been by no means confined to the Alumni of the College, although it is due to the Alumni to testify to their extraordinary devotion and loyalty. It is of great importance that the friends of the College should keep themselves thoroughly informed as to its great necessities. If this school is to hold its place among the best American colleges it will not be by any good fortune, but only because of actual merit. We must see that the equipment of the College is of the highest order and that the work clone in every department i s of the best. Each year witnesses some enlargement in the scope of our College work, and yet we are constantly restrained in our progress by our financial limitations. It was a matter of congratulation to the Trustees that at their recent meeting they were able to complete a Chair of History, and thus add a new department of instruction. At the same time, however, there was an urgent demand fOT the establishment of a department of Biology, but it involved an additional expenditure which the Trustees at this time felt unable to undertake. But they wait in hope, and confidently look to the ever generous friends of the College to provide speedily for this much needed clepa1tment.
In making a broad and intelligent study of the wants of the College, our friends will do well to note the following specific wants:
I. The Trustees have invited contributions for the endowment of the Greek chair in honor of the late H. H. Harris, who for many years
RJClJMOND COLLEGE.
was an eminent Professor of Greek in Richmond College. For this purpose quite a handsome sum has already been acquired, but thus far it is not sufficient. The amount proposed to be raised for this object was $30,000, and it is urgently desired that this endowment shall be speedily completed. Gifts to this fund will be gratefully accepted.
II. The sum of $35,000 is needed for the endowment and equipment of a department of Biology.
III. The Trustees are interested in academies. At their last meeting it was determined to establish an _Academy Fund. This money, as it comes in, will be invested, and the income will be devoted to the equipme;t of such academies a s stand upon a basis which promises that they will be permanently valuable as preparatory schools to Richmond College. There is a widely-felt need throughout Virginia for secondary schools to fit young men for our College. Money donated for this purpose will be exceedingly serviceable to our educational system.
IV. Richmond College is an endo wed institution, otherwise it would be impossible for it to undertake the high and expensive course of work which it is now doing. It must be understood by the friends of the College that fees for higher education fall far short of meeting the expense of instruction. The College has to rely largely upon the income from its endowment for the support of its teachers, and, as has already been indicated, the endowment of the College is far below its necessities. Not only is it true that the College needs teachers and equipment which it is unable to provide, but in point of fact the College pays its professors inadequate salaries. vVe are fortunate in having a most scholarly and efficient corps of teachers, but their efficiency would be increased if we could give them a support worthy of their gifts and services. There is urgent need of a large increase in our endowment. The President of the College, in his seventh report, made to the Trustees on the 12th of June, 1902, after outlining the needs of the College, says: "The College should have at once an endowment of $500,000, and it should be the steadfast aim of the Trustees to double this sum in the next ten years."
V. The College needs more aid funds. By this is meant such benevolent gifts as are designed to help worthy young men in their struggle for an education. Money given for this purpose often puts college education in reach of gifted youths who are struggling to educate themselves and have been defeated in their effort to gain an education. The College has already some aid funds in the way of scholarships and other donations. These have proved incalculably valuable, and not a few of the mOBt distinguished alumni of the Col-
lege look ha.ck with grateful recollections to the large -hearted friends who have supplied those funds by which their education was made possible. It is just to the Trustees to say that their Committee on Scholarships and Donations exercises the utmost care and discrimination in distributing these -gifts. They rarely have occasion to regret any expenditure that is made, but they are constantly filled with regret that the smallness of these funds forces them to deny so many worthy applicants. Here is an attractive opportunity for a gracious investment of money.
The Trustees have established a new Aid Fund, into which will go all gifts of less than $1,000 for aid of students. It is understood that the names of all donors to this fund shall be preserved, and that the fund itself ~hall be used exclusively for helping worthy young men in securing their education.
This does not interfere with the beginning of progressive s.cholarships. A number of individuals, a.nd of churches, have recently given bonds and cash which shall be used in starting scholarships, and with a view of completing these scho l ars hip s as soon as practicable. No donation for a scholarship can be named until tlii.e amount reaches $1,000.
The Trustees have also authorized the establishment of fellowships, the income of which shall be used to assist meritorious Bachelors of Arts who desire to return to College with a view of taking the Master of Arts degree. No fellowship shall amount to less than $1,500.
Rev. W. E. Hatcher, D. D., LL. D., President of the Trustees, ii now engaged in the work of increasing the College endowment funds, and will gladly we lcom e the aid of alumni and of other friends of education. His office is at Richmond College, and he cordially invites correspondence.
Never in the history of the world has there been suoh enthusiasm in favor of higher education as now prevails among the American people. During the past year private gifts for educational purposes in this country amounted to seventy millions of dollars. There is also an increasing disposition among public-spirited people to make their gifts while they live. It is not wonderful that this should be the case. The fluctuations of fortune are many, and it is a sign of thoughtfulness for people to give their money while they have it and lest they should lose it. Moreover, there is intrinsic joy in doing our own giving and seeing our gifts doing their good work while we live. There is a peculiar contagion and inspiration in the gifts of the living. They are especially effective in moving others to generosity. There is also additiemal motive for giving our money to Christian education, and this is the distinct type of work in its essence and spirit which Richmond College is pledged to do. The quick gift is the self-doubling gift. But we know well that it is not convenient for all to make large gifts during their lifetime. They cannot take their capital from their business without crippling their living. At the same time their hearts burn with large desirns and they cherish the thought that as they come to the end of life they will devote their substa .nce entirely, or in part, to Christian education. There are many names which the friends of Richmond College always utter with gratitude and affection-those who in dying remembered the College and gave of their fortune for its upbuilding. Their names are forever identified with the College, and will not be forgotten. Let not the trustees of God's gifts forget to handle them carefully for the good of humanity and for the glory of God.
"I give and devise to Richmond College, located at Richmond, Va., the following real estate--to-wit ( here describe the said real estate as to kind, quantity, and situation).
I also give and bequeath to the said College the sum of . dollars ( $ ...... ) and the following bonds ( or stocks )-to-wit ( here describe the bonds or stocks), all of which are to be used for the following purposes-to-wit ( here describe the purpose far which it sha ll be applied).

B esid es the Proficiencies and Diplomas mention ed above, there were awarded at Commencement 625 Certi ficat es o:f Distinction to students who had passed satis:factc,ry examinations in Sub-Junior, Junior, and Intermedi ate classes.
Th e next Session begins September 25, 1902.
Ne w students who inform the President of the hour of their expected arrival in Richmond will be met at train on September 24th or 25th by a member of the College Y. M. 0. A., wearing the College colors, crimson and blue. The Y. M. 0. A. offers this courtesy only on the days mentioned.
The Refectory opens for the reception of boarders Tuesday, September 23d.
Stu dents usually furnish their own rooms. The articles, conveniently 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. 0. A. will be in the Presid ent's office to assist new students in the selection of rooms, room-mates, and to show them other courtesies.
Matriculation begins on Wednesday, September 24th. On Thursday evening the students are publicly welcomed by represen tatives of the city and the College.
College classes are organized on Friday.
Inte resting reunion exercises are held by the Literary Societies on Friday and Saturday evenings.
Richmond C-Ollegeundertakes to provide in1:,truction as broad and thorough as can be had in any purely secular institution, and, in. addition, to sunound the student wi th influences most conducive to the development of Christi an character. Its tests of scholarship are rigid and the standard of graduation is unusually high, while the ph ysical, social, and religious welfare of its students is regar ded as no less important.
The found e rs of the College showed rare wisdom and for esight in selecting a location for their institut ion. Richmond is not only the capital of Virginia, but _ i s 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 patrio t ism and ins ·pire the young with noble ideals. The busy city, with its varied manu factories and extensive commerce, reminds the student th at the mod ern s.cholar must be practical as well as learned. Richmond is also a city of r eligious influences, and its able and eloqnent pulpit is an efficient aid to culture. The temptation s to young men away from home are but li ttle greater than in a villag e, and are counteracted by better police reg·ulations and by the wholesome moral tone of an exceptionally religious city. Life on the campus is rem arkably free from temptation. In no other communit y of similar size, except at some other · Christian colleges, will there be found so large a proportion of active Christian s, or such str011gand pervasive moral and r •eligious influen ces.
Richmond lies midway between the severe col d of the North and the relaxing heat of the South . T he nine months of the scholastic year have few days either too cold or too hot for comfort in studying or in outdoor exercise. By its elevation-on hills opposite the fa ll s of the James- it is free alike from the malaria of tidewater and from the pulmonary and enteric diseases of the mountain region. For thirty years there have been but few serious cases of sickness-none that could be ascribed to local causes.
The College buildings stand in a beautiful park of thirteen acres, situated in the western and most elevated part of the city. This is the residence section, and abounds in homes of wealth and culture. These natural advantages have been supplemented by municipal improvements, including gas and electric lights, a water supply, and a thorough system of drainage. The sanitary arrangements are first clas&in every respect.. Thus health, comfor t, and means of recreation in open-air exercises, with sufficient seclusion to promote &tudy, have been provided for and will receive constant attention.
The main building stands near the middle o,f the campus, and from it the surface slopes gently down on e,verysi de to the encompassing Etreets. The north wing, 46x104 feet, is devoted mainly to dormitories, 18xl 4 feet, hi_ghpitc hed, well lighted, and ventilated by open :fireplaces. The centre building, 110x42 fret, contains on first floor a chapel with seating capacity of eight hundred; on second floor, lecture-rooms, well furnished with blackboards, maps, charts, and other appliances ; and on the third ' floor t hree hanclsom0ly furnished halls, 30x40 feet, for the Collegewcieties. The south wing contains a Library Hall

dedicated to the memory of Dr. J. B. Jet er ; and on the second fl.om a spacious and elegantly furnished }.Ifus 0um and Art Gallery, a memorial to James Thomns, Jr. All these public balls are heated by steam.
Directly in the rear of the main building is n Dining Hall, with all needful appliances, and a Gynmas ,ium and Bath-Room under the same roof. On one side of this, arnl in the s-ameline, making a row parallel to Lombardy &treet, is a cottage for students, with rooms arranged in pairs, study and cbnmber. each 9x14; also two residEm0es of professors. On the other side are three such residences. Thus the students are brought all the time within the personal influence of at least five professors and their families, and the social, religious, and literary life of the College is very greatly promoted.
On November 17, 1899, two new buildings ·were opened. These buildings are known as Science Hall and Memorial Hall. The former cost, with equipment, thirty thousand dollars; the latter twenty thousand dollars ' . Both are built of pressed brick, with granite trimmings.
Science Hall rneasmes 120x51 feet, and is three s.tories above a basement. The well-lightE-Jdbasement contains boilers for heating three buildings with steam, and also shops and apparatus rooms. The twenty-seven rooms above the basement are all devoted to instnlCtion in the natnral sciences. On the first floor are three bbora tories for chemistry, a lecture hall, a library-room, a bnlanceroom, professor's office, and two supply rooms for chemicals and apparatus. The first y-ear laboratory accommodates fifty students at one time. The second year bbor atory lias desks for twenty-four. The l ecture-room hns terraced

RICHMOND COLLEGE.
Th0 system of schools has many advantages. Among the m the following deserve attention : The pro fessor fb€ls the foll force both of individual duty and personal ambition; the course of in&truction can readily be enlarged or altered to adapt it to the progress of science and to the varying wants of the times ; the student, whooo aims or i,reparation require, can select a course suited to his peculiar case; he can enter, in any department of stndy, the classes for which he is prepared, and deficiency in one hanch doef! not retard him in another ; students are not divided into fixed classes and grades, but all stand on a footing of social equa li ty, and mingle freely with one imother; the system favors the u tmost thoroughness of cmltnre, and the requirements fixed from graduation lend unity to the whole; the degrees being awarded to fewer persons than und er a curriculum, are therefore of more value; and every good student, ·wheth er he takes a degree or not, receives a te&timonial to his Emccessin the shape of Certificates or School Diplomas.
The deportment of a Christian gentleman is the standard to which every stude nt is expected to conform. All appropriate means are u s0d to develop and confirm a sense of :personal honor and sacre d regard for tn1th, as np on these ::reststhe best reliance fo r good condnct. A few plain nnd reasonable rules are prescribed, and each matriculate must pledge himself to obey them The following regulations are now in force:
I. Each student shall attend punctually cyery lecture, :recitation, and exami nation h eld in the classes of whichhe is a member, and sha ll forni~h at the sperified times the writtEm exercises appointed for such classes. I { a student is
a!Jsentor tardy, he shall, at the first opportunity thereafter, offer explanat ion of such absence or tardiness to the Professor in charge.
II. The President will assign f,tudents to rooms. Occupants will bE:•held respom;ible for the good order of their rc,oms, as ,rell as for any damage or defacement they may sustain. X o person, other than an officer of the College, has any ri,1::htto enter a lodging except upon invi t ation of the occupants . Changes from 0110 room to another may be allowedby the Pres id ent, but must not be made without his previous com,ent. Residents in any Dormitory will be charged pro rata for all damages to the building not indiriclnally acconnte d for.
III. A r esident student desiring to leave the premises during the hours when, by the Schedule of Recitations, he should be in his class, shall get permission from the Pre sident. , \ny stndent desiring to be absent from Ooll0geshall get the Pl'esid0nt.'s p ermit in writing and exhibit it to each of his Professors.
IY. Students shall at all times carefully abstain from nmH:ccssary nois0, particn1arly in the College buildings, and from ever yt hing likely to prevent study on the part of others Loafing in the rooms of other ·students during the hours appropr iat ed to study is e£,peciall y forbidden. Garn es and all forms of playing on the CoUege Campus are forbiddenexcept from 2 P. J\L to 8 P. M., and on Saturdays from 12 ).L t o S P. }.I.
Y. The Faculty regards hazing as a serious offense against College ord er. All forms of hazing are strictly f01•hiclrk n.
iT If a stm lcnt destroy, d eface, or in any way damage f'ollrQ·c prope rty, or aid and abet other8 in so doing, he
shall, within tw-enty-fonr h011rs, report the fact to t h e Pres ident in writing, and pay (to tlic Treasurer) th e n ecessary cost of repairs; othern·ise clonble that amoun t ,, i ll be charged against his contingent deposit, which mu st be renGwed whenever exhausted by such charges. Pl ay in g ball in the buildings and throwing water from windo 1rs or porches are strictly prohibited.
YII. Ko student shall bring upon the premis e:; or keep in his posses sion any playing cards, intoxica t in g li qnors, dogs, or deadly we apons.
VIII. No Clubs or Societies shall be formed nnl e~s the Faculty, on application made, approve the d esign of snch ,\ssociation, the rules by ,d1ich it propo f,es to be g ovemed, and the hours of m eeting.
Re sident students desiring to board elsewh ere t h an on the College premises shall fo·st obtain the approval of the President. ·
In tlrn observance of these rules and in all matt ers not specially mentioned, the deportment of a gentleman and n student is the standard to which eYery one is exp ected to conform. His sense of honor is the main reliance, an d his word in matters touching his own conduct will be call ed for at the discretion of the President.
Whenever the President learns that a student is n ot im· JJroving his time, or is living disorderly, he first advi ses mid admoniEhes the young man before any penalty is im posed, except in grave offenses. It is neither the desire nor the purpose of the authorities to disgrace any student, bu t ewry one must live a pure, orderly and hnsy life, or wi thclraw from the College. Idling, card playing, and all oth er forms
:37 of dissipatio n aro strongly cond emned by the authorities, and stnde nts who pcrsi e.t in th ese thing s will be disciplined aud Jll,ty be clis1uistic<Cl.

The course of study, embracing four years, i s indicated by the text- books u sed in the sever al classes. Stud0nts entering the school will be cl assed according to their preparation. For the l owest class there is r6quired such acquaintance with the el ements of Latin gramma r as will enableone to begin to translate with profit.
The SuB-J UNIOR and J UNIOR Cl asses are persistently drilled in the forms and the syntax of the language, with dueattent ion to quantity. The I NTERMEDIATEand SENIOR Classes continue to g iv e needful attention to grammatical principlrn, wh il e they are required to attain a good vocabulary and to imbibe the spi r it of Latin lit erat ure by an extensivecom·se of reading, somewhat varied from yea r to year. In all the cla ss-es th e student's progress i s tested, and his powers of analysis and compo&ition are cultivated by ,nitten exerci ses in rendering English into Latin and Latin into English. The disciplinar y power and cu ltural valueof the st udy of Latin are equally emp ha si~ed.

The aim of this school is to give the student an appreciatiYc acqnnintance "·ith the best Greek autho r s and in spire fl love for Hellenic s.tudies From the beginning of the cr-urse exact ness will be insisted upon. In nll classe s, read iEg at sight will be practiced, and English will be put into Greek, either as a set exercise Ol' at. dictation. At suitablr t;mes there will he confe r ences on Greek l ife, myth ology, history, lit£ •ratnre and art, and at all times an effort "·ill be made to lead the s.tudent into a kconer appreciation of tlir grnins of the Greeks, and to cultiYate a sense for their literary tandarcls.
The work of this sch ool is embraced in the following courses:

French and German are thEJ language s taught. The aim is to give the student a knowledge of vocabulary and grammatical struct ure sufficient to enable him to read their literature with understanding and pleasurEJ; secondarily, to teach him to speak these languag es, and to undE:rstand them when spoken . In junior cla8ses, modarn authors are read, and languag e, is taught as an art. In senior classes, more attentio n i s paid to the classics and to the scientific study of l ang u age structure. Much time is devoted to the history of lit erat ur e.
The course is varied from yeai- to year in order that advantage may be taken of the latest and best helps in this department of study . The following text-books will be used during the session 1902-3 :

In the study of the subjects embraced m thi s school, two distinct but entirely compatible object& 1 ar e kept in view. The first is to familiarize the student with the more common and important substances found in natu re, both organic and inorganic, their characteristics, the changesin y;roperties always attending their combinations an d decompositions,, and the defin i te and invariable l aws 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 fac ility and skill in detecting resemblances and differences , and from chta thus gathered to draw conclusions which are subsequently to be tested by experiment. J n this w ay one acquires skill in cl assification and in inductive rea soning,and gains an accurate conception of what science impl ies.
The, first floor of the new Science Hall opened i n November, 1899, ·was arranged specfically for the D epartment ol' Chemistry. Besides store-room~ and balanc e-rooms, it contains laboratories and lecture"rooms provide d with the bf.st appo intments. The subjects offered in this schoolare taught in two classes, each extending through th e sessionof nine months.
JUNIOR CLASS. - In this course the general pr opertiesof the elements and their more common compoun ds, as well as the fundamental laws and theories of the science, are
51 carcfoll_yconsidered. For the most part, tlie clements are studird in groups, as suggested by the periodic system of )l enddcc f. Facts concerning their occ11rrence and associatio11 i n nature arn presented, and their preparation and 1,ropcrtirs are explained-illustrat ed by experiments in class. R eference is made throughout the course to impo1iant applications of chemical facts and principles to industrial and manufacturing arts.
In the Laboratory students repeat, for the most part, experirnc,nts already witnessed in class, thus acquiring by aetual contact a skill in handling apparatus and a knowledge of the properties of elements and compounds themselve&.
During the latter part of the spring terrn a brief but concise course in Geology is given, special emphasis being !~id on t he dynamic agencies now acting on the earth as furnishing the key with which to unlock the history of its past.
S1rnr<m CLAss.-Only those who liave completed the work of the Junior Class, or its equivalent, are allowed to enterthi s class. A wider survey is taken of the elements and their compounds than is possible in the Junior Class. During the fall term the fundamental laws of chemical combinati ons and decompositione , 1he atomic theory, and thevalence hypothesis are considered in class, while in the Labor atory some of these laws are experimentally verified. Lectures will be given on special topics in Industrial Chemistry.
In the spring term the compo,unds of carbon are studied. The relation of the hydrocarbons to their various derivativesis shown, and the characteris ·tic properties of the principal classes of these compounds are stndied. The thorough. claSoification of these numerous compounds of carbon

The School of Philosophy is designed to furnish students with a, suitable introduction to philosophical studi es and to place them in a position where they may mak e further advances.
The disciplines of the JUNIOR OLAss are divid ed into three several courses, as follows:
Course I. Physiology i s first taken np and the structure and functions of the body as a whole are considered. Careful attention is given to sensation and the sensory organs, and also to the nervous system. The anatomy of th e brain is likewise studied with reference to problems an d limitations of physiological psychology Five thnes a, week.
Course II. Peychology is next undertaken. While the importance of the introspective method is insist ed on, attention is also given to experimental psychology. Due emphasis is laid upon the importance of child study, aucl an estimate is given of the value of psychology in teaching and mental development. Five times a week.
Co1irse III. Ethics, the la&t course in the Juni or Class,
53 is treated with reference to its scope, relations to other sciences,and the various types of ethical theory. The morallife in its social and individual as,pects and the bearingof ethics upon metaphysics are discussed. Five times a week.
The disciplines of the, INTERMEDIATECLASSare prosecutedin two courses, as follows:
Uourse I. Logic is offered in the first semester. The elementsar e taught and the general character of the pro-cessesof thought are set forth. Attention is given to figuresand moods and the method of reducing them to conditionalsyllogysms and to the detection of fallacies. Three limesa week:.
CourseII. The History of Philosophy from its origin amtng the Ionians down to our own time:! is carefully studiedin the second semester, and the rise of the various theoriesand tendencies, is exhibited. The connection betweenphilos ophy and life is everywhere traced as far as possible,an d the influence of philowphical ideas on the developmentof civilization if! insisted on. Three times a week.
The disciplines of the SENIOR Cuss are divided into twocourses, as follows:
OourseI. Political Economy is taught during the first semester. Attention is called to the gradual development of the science, to• the practical value of its principles in theaffairs of States and individuals, and to it:! relation to othersciences Four times a week.
OourseII. Sociology is studied during the second seinestei·.The province of sociology is defined, its methods ilt-scribed,and the evolution of wciety and the laws of socialphenomena are displayed. Four times a week.

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 regarded as one stream, with Rome as the great reservoir, into which the Lest of Greece and the Orient was emptied, and from which, by many outlets, Europe has been supplied. Facts are studied to discover principles and to explain social phenomena, and the method of irn,truction is from cause to effect. History is viewed mme especially from the Htandpoint of politics and economics, for hi story is properly the account of the evolution of social orga nization. This school is divided into three classes, as follows:
1. JumoR Or,Ass.-Ethnology will be outlined, foUow_ed by a discussion of snch topics as primitive man, the beginnings of civilization, and the origin of civil society. The civilization of the non-Aryan peoples will then be taken np.

after which the history of Greece will be treated chiefly from the s tandpoint of politics, literature, and art. The mainfacts of Roman history will be noticed, but especially its system of jurisprudence, its social and economic problems, and such institutions as have influenced the political and religious life of Modern Europe. The history of Europe will be considered under the following heads: ( 1) Origin of European State8; ( 2) Imperialism and the Papacy; ( 3) Feudalism; ( 4) Renaissance and the Reformation; ( 5) French Revolution; and (6) Nationality and Democracy as realized in the Nineteenth Century.
2 INTERMEDIATEOLAss.-A rapid glance will be given ln the political history of England, but more time will be consumed in tracing the growth of the English Constitutionin its successive stages, from the Magna Charta to the Rf!form Bills of this century. The close connection between Eng lish and American im,titutions will be emphasized . In American history the period of colonization will b&briefly summarized, after ·which the course will deal mtirely with United States history. :Much attention will be paidto th e historical geography of our country.
3.

This school, established in 1870, and continued with slightinte rruption till 1882, was in 1890 firmly re-established The location i8 eminently suited for combining practical with theoretical instruction, by reason of easy accessto t he numerous courts-Fe<leral, State, Municipal-h eld in th e city of Richmond, and the large and wellselectedlib raries-law and rniscellaneous--of the State andthe Coll ege.
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 taughtthe following s'Ubjects, to~wit: The Coounon Law, Statute Law, Criminal Law, Commercial Law, Equity Jurisprudence, Constitutional Law, International Law.

It is expected that text-books will be taken up m the order name d above, but the Faculty res erve the right to rearrange subjects betwe en classes, and to change text-books as may be d eemed beneficial to the oohool.
The ins truction is thorough and is given through textbooks an d lectures, with daily oral examinations. The course i& arranged for two sessions, and the student is advised to devote that time to it. But one, earnest and diligent, who has, before entering the school, become somewhatacquaint ed with the nomenclature of the law, may,by devoting the entire session of nine months to the study of t he subjects embraced in the course, achieve the degree of Bachelor of Law in one session.
The Ju nior Class meets 4 :30 to 5 :30 P. M., and the SeniorClasis 5 :30 to 7 P. M. The hours for meeting the classesare chosen with a view of enabling the student ( who desires it) to attend all the lectures in the course; also, to give an opp ortunity to law students wishing to take classes in the Aca demic Department of the College ( and vice versa)to do so; and, also, to suit the convenience of young men in busfoess who can only give a part of the day to the study of la w.

L. is applied for.
To acquaint the student with the details of pr actice in the drawing of deeds, will s, and other instrum ents; the institution and maturing of suits at law and in equity; the preparation of pleadings; and the conduct of causes in court, a :Moot Court is organized about the middl e of the ficssion, in which satisfactory work is expected to be done to obtain the degree of Bachelor of Law.

The Library Department 0£ the College d eser ves special mention. ThE,, hall is exceptionally attractiv e, both in appearance and comfort. The equipm ent is 0£ a high order, combining utility and beauty. Painting s and sculpture throw the charm 0£ art O•ver the whole. While the literary treasures 0£ the College are provided with so imposing a home, they are not withdrawn from the student. No part 0£ the College is more freely open to the student body. · No fee is charged. Appreciation 0£ the advantages offered and propriety 0£ conduct are the only requ irements for the free use, during the entire day, 0£ the ha ll and its bounties. The great aim o.£ the management i s to afford agreeable educational pastime for students at lei sure, and to promote by the best methods and ample5t resources scientific rese•arch and exhaustive critical study for thos17 who need to pursue lines o.£investigation. Enc yclopedias, lexicons, and a full line 0£ other reference books and student helps are at hand in open cases, while readi ng tables, supplied with the be5t current literature, Amer ican ancl foreign, are accessible at all hours.
The Catalogue shows a steady gain in the best authors, selected with special reference to class work and a generous culture. The number 0£ volumes increased durin g the past sessfon from 13,866 to 14,120. The books ma y not only be freely consulted in the hall, but are loaned to those who de.sire long er time for research. During the past session 1,533 volumes were borrowed, covering a wid e range of
67 general literature-poetry, fiction, history, biography, Ecience,philosophy, and religion.
The largest gift of books during the past year came from ;1Ir.II. A. J\foCurdy, of Richmond, and consisted of seventy volumes . Library facilities will be greatly enlarged c!uring 1002-'3 by the addition of new cases and the completion of a new cata l ogue.
A special feature in the hall is the alcove devoted to The Heaton. Law Library, founded by the late Mrs. Hari-iet ~L Purcell, at a cost of $3,000, in honor of h er deceased brother, Hon. Henry Heaton, of Loudoun county. On th is foundation of the mo st approved and valuable \l'Orkson law, the College is building by yearly accessions of valuable Reports from the General and State Governments, an d all necessary Current Magazines. The students iu the Law Department are given acces,s to this Law Library, and uso it very freely.
A special Reading-Room for the Young Men's Christian Association has been fitted up. Here is the Missionary Library-the religious periodicals and appliances for the thorough stndy of the Sunday-school lesson. On Sunday afternoon this special reading-room may be the gatheringplace of all students who can be induced to read, for pleasure or profit, the current religions literature of the country .
Bible st ucl:v finds many accessories in the Library. A long lino of the best commentaries on the Holy Scriptures are within r e,ach, and the critical and experimental study of God's ,Vorel i1:1constantly encomaged. .
The beautiful James Thomas, Jr., Museum and Ar t Hall has been opened, and is now dedicated to its· spooific use. Into it have already been gathered some casts of celebrated statuary, a few paintings, and many valuable curios and objects of ethnographical interest from all lands. Recently there were added by purchase lifo-5ize casts of V Emusde Milo, Apollo Belvedere, and the Borghese W an:ior; also, bus ts of Homer, Vergil, Dante, Milton, f:ihakespeare, Tennyson, Napoleon, Luther, Cohunbus, Julius Cmsar, Sophocles, Sappho, and Olytie. Other recent additions hav e been the Greek relief "Venu s Persuading Helen to follow Paris," Thorwaldsen's "A pollo and th e Muses," and a large oil painting, "Paul and Vi rginia," by Mrs. Emilie Lasar, of Portland, Me. Mr. John L. Williams has presented to the College a handsome cr ayon portrait of Chief-Justice Marshall. By a suitabl e arrangement of cases, there is an attractive display of rar e curiosities from our own and foreign lands, the gif1:6 · of trustees , alumni, and generous friends. Rev. Hugh P. M cCormick, oi Porto Rico, and Mrs. W. E. Hatcher, of R ichmond , have filled cases that are of exceptional value. A valuable collection has ·also been received from Rev. R. E. Cham· bers, of China. Gifts of statuary, paintings, ph otographs, and objects of artistic or historical interest are gladly re· ceived. The Librarian is curator, and contributi ons should be forwarded to him.
Two literary societies, known as the Mu SIGMARHo and P mLoLOGIAN,are maintaine,d by the students, and are recognized as agencies of great value in scholastic training. They are provided with elegant halls, where they hold ,ye,ek1y meetings for declamation, debate, and other literary exercises. Besides the joint celebration nsually held at Commencement, eacl: society arranges for at least one public debate during the session. The two so~ cieties u nite in publishing the Messenger, a monthly magazine of about seventy-five pages. A generous rivalry is maintained bet"·een the two organizations by the joint offer of an orator's medal and a writer's medal, and among the individual members by the offer in each society of a medal for improvement in debate and for the best debater. The medalists for 1901-1902 were as follows:
Joint Orator's.-Lane Lacy, Mu Sigma, Rho.

The t wo literary societies hold membership in the Virginia St ate Interco ll egiate Oratorical Association, which is composed of the societies of the leading colleges and universities of Virginia.
RICHMOND COLLEGE.
During the session of 1895-'96 the Richmond College Law Association was organized by students of the Schoo l of Law for the discussion of literary and legal qu estions :Meetings are held once a week.
The students maintain an active Young Men's Christ ian Association, whose object is to promote the spiri t u al and moral welfare of the Coll~e and to do religious work in the city. The Association has charge of all pra yer -meetings in College, and its members conduct service s or teach Bible classes at the City Almshouse, the Conf ederate Soldiers' Home, the Locomotive Works, and at several mission stations in the suburbs. A pleasant featur e of the work in College is the arrangement made for me eti ng new students upon their arrival, and showing them man y need:ful courtesies.
Connected with the Association is a flourishing MrssroNARYSocrnTY, which meets twice a week for stud y of the habits, customs, prevailing religions, and geography of foreign countries. The Society owns an ind ependent library.
Outdoor sports are fostered and encouraged at Richmond College. Details of management are entru sted to the Athletic Association, composed of students and profe~sors, but the President and Faculty exercise general control. The annual Field -Day contests are admirabl e incentives to physical culture.
The following regulations governing Athletics have been adopted by the Faculty:

LOC.A.L CHAPTERS.
In :M:ay,1898, there was organized in Louisville a Chapter of the General Society of Alumni, which is known as the "Kentucky Association of Richmond College Alumn i." The Kentucky Association holds annual meetings in :May. The present officers are: Dr. S. E. Woody, Louisvill e, president; Professor 'N. 0. Carver, Louisville, secret ary and treasurer.
In February, 1899, the alumni resident in Norfolk, V a , and vicinity organized a "Norfolk Chapter of Richmo nd College Alumni." The chapter holds annual meetings in February. The present officers are: Rev. J. J. Taylo r , Norfolk, president; C. W. Coleman, Esq., Churchlan d, secretary and treasurer.
The President of the College will be glad to correspo nd with alumni who desire to form local associations.
Inst ruction is conveyed by the use of approved textbooks, sup plemented by oral explanations and additiom, 1 in some cases by more formal lectures, and in most of the classesby exercises to be written and carefully corrected. In every class the student is que stioned on the as5igned portion of the text or the prnvious lecture. An account of the value of these recitations and exercises is kept by the Professor, and the average standing for each month is calculated and entered of record for reference in determining his right to any of the honors of the institution.
To the parent or guardian is sent, monthly, a transcript of th is record of class-standing, with a statement of the absences of the student from his classes, and such other i1iformation as may be deem ed important. By the prompt and judicious attention of those to 'whom they are addressed, these repo'l'ts may be made of great value in promoting improvement and sustaining a just discipline.
Besides the daily questioning, every class is subjected to two or more general examinations conducted in writing. The Intermediate Examination, embracing in its scope the first half of the course, is held about the middle of the session. The Fina l Examination, held near the close of the session, embraces the subjects treated in the second half. In Senior classes, however, examinations are not limited to what has been explicitly contained in the course of in-
74-
suuction, but may embrace passages or problems tha t have not been taken up in the class-room, together with an oral review of the whole course taught in the school, as searching and extensive as the Professor may deem neces · sary.
For these examinations a series of questions, wi th certain numerical valu es attached, is prepared for each class . The answers furnished by each stud ent are car efully valued, and this valuation is equitably combined wi th the average of his class standing. If the mark of a st udent, as thus ascertained, amounts to eighty per centum he is ranked in th e first division; if to less than this, but not lc:ss than fifty per centum, in the second division; if to less than fifty, in the third division. Only those studen ts who attain rank in the first division, at both Final and Intermediate Examinations, are entitled to points in th e estimat es for degrees.
Certificates of Distinction are awarded to studen ts who attain the first division at either examination, and their nam es are published or announced in the closing exercises o.f the session
Certificates of Profici ency are conferred on stud en ts in the School of Law who attain the first division at all ex· aminations in certain complete subjects of study, t o-wit: In Constitutional and International Law, in Crim inal Law, in Evidence, in Corporation Law, and in the La w of Negotiable Instruments.
Diplomas are conferred on those who attain to the first division in the full course taught in each school or depart· ment, to-wit: Latin Lang11age and Literature, Greek Lan· guage and Literature, French Language and Literatu re, German Language and Literature, English Langua ge, English Literature, Mathematics, Physics, Chemi str:,·, Philosophy, and History.
I. Tn E TANNER MEDAL.-Founded by Colonel William E. Tanne r, of Richmond, Virginia, in honor of his parents, J ohn F. and Harriet L. Tanner-is given to the most pro-ficient graduate in the School of Greek.
II. THE JAMES D. CRUMP PRIZE.-Founded by the gentleman whose name it bears-is a prize of twenty dollars, in gold, given for excellence in the Int ermediate Class of Mathe matics. It is awarded in part on the regular classwork and in part on extra work.
The Professional Degree of Bachelor of Law ( B. L.), and the Acad emic Degrees of Bachelor of Science (B. S.), Bachelor of Arts ( B. A.), and M ast,er of Arts ( M. A.), are conferred by the Trustees on recommendation from the Faculty . They cannot be given either in course o,r as honorary degrees.
FoR BACHELOROF LAw is required Graduation on all the subjects included in the Law School, with some pro£ciency in general education.
All subjects taught in the Academic Schools of the College are now classified under three groups, viz. : (I.), a Foreign Language Group; (II.), a Scientific Group; and (III. ), an E~glish-Philosophical Group. Students who attain t he first division ( i. e., make eighty _per cent.) on the examinations in any class, are entitled to the points set after that class in the groups printed below:
*For session 1902-3 Junior History will count four point s, as heretofore, for students who entered Richmond College previou s to September, 1902. After the sess ion 1902-3 Junior History may be required for B. A., and, in this case, Intermediate History will probably be valued at four points.
Fo R BACHELOROF ScrnNCE is required eight points from Group I., thirty -two points from Group II., and eleven points, including Junior English and Junior Philosophy, from Group III.
F oR BACHELOROF ARTS is required a total of seventy points, of which twenty-four points, including one diploma, must come from Group I. ; fifteen points, including Junior Mathematics and Junior Physics, or Junior Chemistry, from Group II. ; fifteen points, including Junior English and Junior Philosophy, from Group III. The remaining sixteen points may come from any or all of the groups.
The candidate for Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of 1irts must submit to the Faculty by Uay 1st of the year in which he expects to graduate, an oration or essay, composed by him self, which he shall deliver in public at the close of the session, if so directed.
Candidates for any of the degrees, mentioned above are required to submit to the Faculty eight months before Commencement a written application for the degree sought, together with a statement of class-work a.lre,ady accomplished, and of that which remains unfinished.
The applicant for the degTee of MASTEROF ARTS must previously have met all requirements for a B. A. degree. In addition to this he must obtain from the Faculty, at the beginning of the session in which he expects to take the U. A. degree, formal approval of his course of study. This course must embrace four senior classes, no one of which shall have been offered for the B. A. degree. The most advanced class in each of the following departments counts aEi ' a senior: Latin, Greek, French, German, English I. anguage, English Literature, Mathematics, Chemistry, P hysics, History, and Philosophy. The candidate for the ~L A. degree must also submit to the Faculty not lat er than April 15th preceding the close of his course of study, a

The subject of the thesis must be submitted to the Faculty within two months from the date on which the candidate is notified of the approval of his course of study. A Bachelor of Arts of another institution of l earning who enters Richmond College as a candidate for the degree of Master of Art-8, must firs,t satisfy the Faculty that his previous scholastic work is equivalent in amoun t and quality to that required for the B. A. degree in Richm ond College. He will then be accepted as a candidate for M .A., subject to the same conditions imposed upon gTaduates from this College. Bachelors of Arts ·who are deficient in any of the courses required here for B. A., will be given opportunity to make up the deficiency.
T he advantages of Richmond College are open to women on t he cond'itions named below:

The foregoing regulation,g were adopted 111 June, 1898. D uring 1898-'99, four young women matriculated. In 18 99-1900, there were seven female students. In 1900-'1, an d again in 1901-'2, six young women matriculated. One · young woman has received the degree of B. S. and another t h e degree of B. A. During the summer of 1902 improved arrangements wi ll be made for the reception of women. P roperly prepared students will be cordially wel come. For further information addreE'.6th e President of t h e College.
The session opens on the Thursday nearest to the 22d of September, and continues thirty-eight weeks. The n ext session, therefore, will open September 25, 1902, and will close June 18, 1903. Exercises a,re suspended for one week at Christmas, and on two separate clays in the sprin gEaster Monday, and "Field-Day," for competitive out-ofcloor sports.
Students are advised to be present at the openin g of the session. This applies particularly to students who enter Junior or Sub-Junior classes. Students who are prep ared for classes higher than Snb-J unior, and cannot enter in September, may enter with advantage at the opening of th e spring term, February 10th. Students who show sufficient preparation are allowed to enter at any time.
The system of schools allows the sel ection by every student of s1nch studies as will be most va l uable in quali fying him for his fotm·e pursuits; but, while allowing such selection, the College holds that the man is more, than the occupation, and will always encourage a regular and complete course. To this end the right is reserved to prescr ibe the studies of any who may be found unprepared for classes higher than the J uni.or in Latin, English, and Mathematics. A committee of the Faculty will assist the President in matricu l ating students, and will carefull y advise every new student as to his course of study.
Every student is expected to attend at least three schools, and to adhere throughout the session to the studies selected on his matriculation. Student s who desire to pursue special studies in one or more schools should communi cate with the Pr esident.
St udents are assigned to the soveral classes in a school according to their apparent attainments; but th e Professor in charge of a department will, at any time, trans£ er a student to a higher or lower cl ass in that departm ent when, in his judgment, such a change is desirabl e.
Every applicant for admi~;sion, upon arriving at the Collt'ge, must report promptly to the President. If he has been a student at any other college, he should present satisfoctory 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 studies he has pur sued and what progress he ha s made
In case of rea sonabl e doubt wheth er the applicant is prepared by hi s previons training to undertake collegiate work, the question will be decided by entrance examinations in any two that h e may -elect, or in all of the three Sehools of English, :Mathematics, and Latin. For entering the School of Engli sh the requirements are "a knowledge of Elementary Engli sh Grammar and ability to wTite with gr ammatical correctness"; for Mathematics, "a good lmowlodge of Arithm et ic and E l ementary Algebra through Simp le Equations"; for Latin, "such acquaintance with Ia tin Grammar and Vo cabulary as will enable one to trarn:,'bte simple prose." If found well pr epared in all these the applicant may enter either these schools or others; if pre-
pared 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 duly subscribed to the regulation s, he will receive a permit to matriculate, and, upon presentation of this to the Treasurer of the College and payment of the required fees, his name will be placed on the rolls.
For statement concerning the matriculation of women, see special announcement on "Admission of Women."
