GENERAL STATEMENTS AS TO THE COURSES OF INSTRUCTION. The Johns Hopkins University will commence its twenty-fifth year of instruction on October 1, 1900. The work will go forward in these divisions: The Graduate department, in which arrange- ments are made for the instruction of advanced students in the higher studies of literature and science; The Undergraduate or Collegiate department, in which students receive a liberal education leading up to the degree of Bachelor of Arts; The Medical department, in which students who have already received a liberal education are re- ceived as candidates for the degree of Doctor of Medicine, and in which Doctors of Medicine may attend special courses. In other words, arrangements are made for the instruction of the following classes: 1. Graduate students and other qualified persons desiring to continue for one or more years their liberal education, and possibly to become candi- dates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy; 2. Graduate students and other qualified per- sons wishing to proceed to the degree of Doctor of Medicine; 3. Doctors of Medicine who desire to follow special courses of lectures and laboratory work; 4. Undergraduates looking forward to the degree of Bachelor of Arts; 5. Special students who have not received an academic degree and are not candidates for a degree, but who desire to follow special courses of instruction in literature and science. The medical department is open to women; the other departments are not. An academic building, called McCoy Hall, in commemoration of its donor, contains the library and the class-rooms in language, literature, history, and philosophy. Laboratories are provided in Chemistry, Physics and Electricity, Geology and Mineralogy, and in the Biological Sciences (Anatomy, Physiology, Zo6logy, and Pathology). Seminaries are organized in the Greek, Latin, French, German, English, Sanskrit, and Semitic languages, and also in History and Political Sci- ence. There are various scientific associations and journal clubs which hold regular meetings. The Library contains ninety-four thousand vol- umes, part of which are kept in the central reading room, while the remainder of the books are dis- tributed according to their subjects in the different laboratories and seminaries. The Library of the Peabody Institute contains one hundred and thirty-five thousand volumes. These books are selected with reference to the wants of scholars. They are well chosen, well arranged, well bound, and well catalogued, and are accessible daily from nine in the morning until half-past ten in the evening. The proximity of Baltimore to Washington en- ables the students to visit the libraries, museums, and scientific foundations of the Capital. The academic year extends from the first of October to the fifteenth of June. The charge for tuition is one hundred and fifty dollars per annum in the graduate and undergrad- uate departments, and two hundred dollars in the medical department. The Annual Register, giving full statements as to the regulations and work of the University, and separate announcemnents of the Medical Courses, will be sent on application.

BULLOCK CLARK, Professor of Organic Geology, assisted by Dr. HARRY FIELDING REID, Associate Professor of Geological Phys- ics, Dr. EDWARD B. MATHEWS, Associate Professor of Mineralogy and Petrography, Dr. GEORGE B. SHATTUCK, Associate in Phys- iographic Geology, and Dr. OLIVER L. FASSIG, Instructor in Meteorology. An important course of lectures will be given by Mr. BAILEY WILLIS, of the United States Geological Survey, Lecturer on Stratigraphic and Structural Geology, and briefer courses by Professor CLEVELAND ABBE, of the United States Weather Bureau, Lecturer on Meteorology, and Dr. L. A. BAUER, of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, Lecturer on Terrestrial Magnetism. Courses are offered to both graduates and undergraduates. In the case of graduate students, the work is arranged to meet the wants (1) of those who desire to make Geology their principal subject for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, and (2) of those who wish to select certain courses in Geology for one or both of their subordinate subjects, themajor subject being taken in another department. Special arrangements may also be made by gradu- ate students whose time is limited, or who desire to devote their attention to particular courses without reference to a degree. In the case of undergraduate students, Geology may be taken either as one of the major or as one of the minor courses for the degree of Bachelor of Arts. The courses in Geology consist of lectures, laboratory and field work, and conferences upon topics of current literature. Great importance is attached to laboratory training as a part of the geological course, and facilities are given for daily work from 9 a. m. to 5 p.m. LECTURE COURSES. 1. General Geology, by Professor Clark and Dr. Shattuck. Four timesweekly. 2. Paleontology, by Professor Clark. Twice weekly. 3. Historical Geology, by Professor Clark. Twice weekly. 4.

Laboratory courses are arranged to accompany the lectures, while advanced or special students will be given the opportunity to carry on fuller investigations upon either described or new materials. CONFERENCES AND STUDENT LECTURES. In order that the advanced students may be kept in touch with the most recent investigations in the science, conferences are held at which the leading journals in geology are reviewed by the students under the direction of the instructors. The conferences take place bi-weekly. In order that the advanced students may also have the expe- rience necessary for the successful preparation and delivery of class-room lectures, a course upon some phase of geology is arranged, a special topic being assigned to each student. The lectures take place bi-weckly, alternating with the conferences. FIELD WORK. The area of the State of Maryland includes, notwithstanding its comparatively small size, a remarkable sequence of geological formations. The ancient rocks of the earth’s crust, as well as those still in the process of deposition, are found, while between these wide limits there is hardly a geological epoch which is not represented. As a result, most excellent facilities are afforded for a study of the various geological horizons. GEOLOGICAL CAMP. Arrangements are made annually for a geological encampment of several weeks after thc close of the class-room lectures at the University. GEOLOGICAL LABORATORY AND LIBRARY. The Geological Laboratory is situated in Hopkins Hall, and comprises over thirty rooms, large and small. Here are placed the library, apparatus and collections, which are accessible to the student daily, from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. In accordance with the custom of the University, those books relating to thework of the geological department are given into its charge, the books of general reference being retained in the University Library. The libraryof the geological department contains a good representaticn of the leading journals and works of reference upon geological subjects. Itis greatlyenriched by the Williams, Lewis and Abbe libraries. Extensive series of topographical and geological maps likewise form a portion of the library, and these are constantly increasing in number. APPARATUS AND COLLECTIONS. The collections of the department consist primarily of a large amount of important material brought together from Maryland and adjacent States. It represents all the horizons of the State, being especially rich in crystalline rocks, and in Cretaceous and Tertiary fossils. Some of this material hasbeen already described, while much awaits further study. Among the most important of the special collections are: The Williams collection of rocks and minerals, the Lewis collection of rocks and thin sections, the Krantz collection of fossils, the Hill collection of rocks and characteristic fossils from the Cretaceous formations of Texas, and the Stiirtz, the Lehmann, and the Allen collections. JOHNS HOPKINS STATE SCIENTIFIC BUREAUS CONNECTED WITH THE GEOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT. Two scientific bureaus, established by the Legislature and maintained at the expense of the State, are carried on in connec- tion with the geological department. They are the Maryland Geological and Economic Survey and the Maryland State ‘Weather Service. Professor Clark is in charge of both of these organizations, which are concerned with a study of the geology and physical features of the State of Maryland. A sum of $27,000 annually is appropriated by the State for these bureaus. THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES. The courses in the Biological Sciences are designed (1) for students who wish to make Zoology, Botany, Animal Physiology, Anatomy, or Pathology a subject of advanced study and research, or the principal or a subordinate subject for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy; (2) for graduates in medicine who desire special courses in one or more of these subjects; (3) for undergraduates who desire some knowledge of the biological sciences as part of a liberal education; and (4) for undergraduates who desire to pre- pare themselves for the study of medicine. Thevarious laboratories are open daily during the session from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. The work is conducted under the direction of the professors in the different departments. Graduate Courses. ZOOLOGY AND BOTANY. The work in Zoology and Botany is directed by Dr. XV’. K. Brooks, Professor of Zoology, assisted by Dr. E. A. Andrews, Associate Professor of Biology, Dr. D. S.

Captain John Donnell Smith, of Baltimore, has kindly consented to allow students to avail themselves of the opportunities offered in his private herbarium, which includes some 78,000 sheets of specimens from all parts ofthe world, and which is especially rich in its representation of the Flora of the United States and of the American tropics. He has also offered to special students the privilege of consulting his extensive botanical library. Students of Botany have access also to the Schimper collection of European phanerogams, the Fitzgerald collection of mosses, and the local collection of the Baltimore Naturalists’ Field Club. Library Facilities. A working library of monographs and periodicals for students of Zo6logy and Botany is contained in the Biological Laboratory of the University. A similar library for students of Physiology, Anatomy, and Pathology is provided in the building of the Medical School. The general library of the University receives all the chief journals of general science, and the transactions of the leading learned societies of the world. The library of the Peabody Institute, within five minutes’ walk of the University, contains complete sets of many of the chief biological journals, of the proceedings of learned societies, and other works of reference. In the libraries of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland and the Johns Hopkins Hospital a large number of medical periodicals are accessible to members of the University. 75 Publications. The University Circulars and the Hospital Bulletins provide for the prompt publication of abstracts of researches, or parts of researches, as soon as they are completed and ready for publication. From time to time extensive memoirs of investigations in Zoiilogy are issued by the University Press in a series of illustrated quarto Morpho- logical Monographs. Collegiate Instruction. The regular undergraduate instruction in normal biology ex- tends over two years. The first year constitutes a minor course and may be taken separately. Special students, who are not graduates or matriculates, may enter the courses for undergraduates, on giving satisfactory evi- dence of fitness. In addition to valuable training of the powers of observation and thought, the courses in Biology present the science of life in its most fundamental aspects, and thus serve as a basis for the study of the phenomena of human existence dealt with in History, Political Economy, Psychology, and Ethics. They areopen to all students, no previous training being required; and they will be found useful to those looking forward to a career in the ministry, to those designing to enter the medical profession, and to all who are interested in Natural History. In addition to the regular courses, the excursions of the Naturalists’ Field Club, which are open to all, afford opportunities for a less formal study of Nature. Minor Course. (Required of all who wish to enter the medical school.) General Biology. Five to six hours laboratory work and four lectures and exercises weekly, through the year. Associate Professor ANDREW5, with the aid of Dr. BARTON and laboratory assistants.

The metrical forms transmitted from Old High German will first he con- sidered, after which the foreign influence and the resulting complexity of verse forms in the first classical period of German Literature (l2th—l3th century) will be studied. The history of ascertainable facts, and the collection and consideration of a trustworthy body of metrical material, derived from the monuments themselves, will be the chief object in view, rather than a formal discussion of modern theories; but examples and illustrations will, wherever possible, he drawn from later periods.

The undergraduate courses in Philosophy provide five hours per week of work for one year, under the direction of Professor GRIFFIN. All candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts are required to follow them during the last year of residence. I. Deductive and Inductive Logic. The logical forms—terms, propositions, syllogisms—are studied as an analysis or explanation of the thinking process, and as a practical dis- cipline in exact thought: attention is given also to the material elements in inference, as these are stated in the several inductive methods. Creighton’s Introductory Logic is used as a text-book, with references to the works of Jevons, Mill, Bain, Keynes, and other writers. Four hours weekly, until Ohristmas. 2. Psychology. The instruction in psychology is intended to give a general view of the results of the present methods of study, the investigations in regard to the quality and intensity of sensations, the duration of psychic acts, etc—in general, the subjects treated in Part II of Ladd’s Physiological Psychology —being presented with sufficient detail to render them intelligible and inter- esting. A series of lectures and demonstrations on the anatomy and physi- ology of the nervous system is included in the course. Especial emphasis is laid upon the facts of conscious experience as known through introspection, the most important end to he secured being, it is believed, such an understanding of the facts and laws of mental life as shall fit one for wise self-government and effective influence. With this view, such powers and states of mind as attention, memory, association, habit, imagination, the feelings, the will, are discussed in as concrete and practical a way as possible. A text book is used as a basis of instruction but this is largely supplemented by informal lectures, and by references to various authorities. Baldwin’s Elements of Psychology, Sully’s Human Mind, James’s Psychology, Hdffding’s Outlines of Psychology, Dewey’s Psychology, Hamilton’s Lectures on Metaphysics, Porter’s Human Intellect, Spencer’s Principles of Psychology, Ladd’s Outlines of Physiological Psychology, are used as books of reference. One essay on an assigned subject is required from each member of the class. Four hours weekly, during January; five hours, from February 1 to April 1. 3. Ethics. Ethics is treated with reference to its fundamental problems as a theoreti- cal science, and also from a practical point of view. Its psychological basis in the various forms of feeling native to our constitution, and in the power of rational self-determination; the nature of the sense of obligation; the authority of conscience; the diversities of moral opinion; the historic theories of morals—hedonism, utilitarianism, intuitionism, and the appli- cation to ethical theory of the doctrine of evolution ;—these are some of the topics discussed. Fowler’s Principles of Morals, Part II, is employed as a text-book, but the instruction is given, to a considerable extent, through lectures. One essay is required from each member of the class. Five hours weekly, after April 1. 4. History of Philosophy. Outline of Greek Philosophy. Weekly, first half-year. Outline of Modern Philosophy. [Optional Course.] Weekly, second half-year. For next year the following advanced courses in Philosophy are offered: 1. Modern Philosophy from Descartes to Kant. Weekly, through the year. Professor GRIFFIN. 2. Modern Ethical Theories.
