Before bidding good-bye to the youngest Alumni, I desire, in view of the present circumstances of the College, to say a few words to the older Alumni, and to put the situation plainly before them, for now more than ever is their a~sistance needed in assuring the future of their Alma Mater. If time permitted, it would be interesting to review the history of collegiate education in the State, and to note the efforts made to procure, and still more to retain, State support for it, although it is a history of repeated failures and but partial success.· I shall, however, allude but briefly to the attempts made to establish a college in Maryland before this time-honored institution was chartered,* and shall narrate its history in as few words as possible. The first legislative action of which we have record with regard to education was that taken by the General Assembly convened in the city of St. Mary's in 1671, when an Act was passed by the Upper House £or ".found-: ing and erecting a school or college for the. education of youth in learning and virtue." This was returned by the Lower House with certain amendments providing for differences in religious views existing among th.e people, which amendments were not acceptable to the Upper *Th e historical facts r elating to education in Maryland previous to the charter of St. John's Colleg<o (1784) were taken originally from a manuscript document on file in the U. S. Bureau of Education, and were included in an address on "The Past and Present of Edu cation in Maryland," delivered by the pre~ent writer before the Maryland State Teachers' Assoeiation, at Hagerstown, Aug. 27, 1873, and in "A. Brief Historical Sketch" prefixed to the Catalogue of Graduates and Alumni of St. J;ohn's College, published in 1874. The facts relating to the history of the College have been frequently published, ana especia.lly in two appeals to the people of Maryland by the Visitors and Governors of the College, one publishe<l ii::t August, 1868, and the other in November, 1870, and in the Reports of the Principal of the College to the General Assembly of 1868 and to that of 1878. I �4 House, and thus ended the first well-meant effort for the establighment of a school or college in the Province of Maryland. Passing over the message of Gov. Nicholson of 1694, and th!3 Act of 1696, we come to the establishment under that Act of the King Williarn School, noted. as the Alma Mater of many distinguished men, and especially of the celebrated lawyer and statesman, William Pinkney. This ~chool was opened in 1701 and eighty-five years later was mcorporated with St. John's Oollege. The next importan.t record relating to collegiate education is ~ paper, sa1d to be still in the Ex~cutive Department, entitled "Proposals for founding a. College at Annapolis," and dated 1732, whieh was read in the Upper House and recommended to the consideration of the Lower House of A,ssemhly. The author of the paper laments "the great want of some well-ni?gulated seminary for the propagation of polite and useful learning , in this large and. growing -colony," and urges the project "that gentlemen may be under no necessity of sending their sons at great expense to Europe for education," and that native teachers may 'be educated, "it not being worth the while of men of genius te come from England to teach for the precarious stipends provided.'' The plan was a very liberal and comprehensive one, at a , time too when Harvard College in Massachusetts, and \Villiam and Mary College in Virginia, were the only collegiate institutions in this country ; but the General Assembly seems to have neglected to perfect the requisite legislation, and so this second attempt to establish a college in Maryland failed. We do mt find the project of establishing a colleae revived untill763, when a Report to the General Asse;ibly says: 5 "Your committee are of opinion that the house in the City of .Annapolis which was intended for the Governor <>f this Province, be completely finished and used for the ·college proposed to be established." This house is the building in which we are now assembled, begun in 1746 and intended for Gov. Bladen, but from remaining long 'unfinished known to local history as "Bladen's Folly." The expenses 'of the college were to be defrayed out of the Public Treasury, and among other estimated resources were a tax on licenses and a tax on bachelors-from 5 to 20 shillings apiece. The Report was adopted and an Act passed in the Lower House, but it failed in the Upper House, and we are told that, after a lengthy and acrimonious discussion, with several messages from one House to the other without producing harmony of sentiment, the AsRembly was finally prorogued, and so this third effort met with the fate of its predecessors. But the intention of establishing a college at Annapolis was not abandoned, for we have a letter, dated Oct. 4, 1773, from William Eddis, Surveyor of Customs at Annapolis, to a friend in England, stating that "the Legislature bas determined to found a college for the education of youth in ev,ery liberal an~ useful br:;tnch of scienc~, which will precmde the necess1ty of crossmg the Atlantic for the completion of a classical and polite education," and that it had been determined to finish the building on the banks of the Severn formerly designed for the Gover· nor's mansion, and to apply it to the purposes of collegiate educatioJl. · The Revolutionary War interfered with the immediate fulfillment of this wis~ plan, but in 1782 ·washington College, at Chestertown, was chartered, the Pr~amble to the Act stating "that previous attempts had failed because .of the difficulty of fixing a sibation on either shore of €qual convenience to youth of both shores, and it was �I 6 therefore desirable that the inhabitants of each shore should consult their own convenience in founding a college for th~mselv~s:" This Act was soon followed by that of 1784, contammg the charter of St. John's College, and t~e two colleges were declared one university under the title o~ "The l!niv.e rsity of Maryland,'' but this provision was never earned mto effect and was afterwards repealed. After repe~ted a~.tempts and failures,, we see two colleges at l~st established m the State and provision made by the Legislature for. their s~pport. Would that this provision ~ad bee~ ?ontmued With the same liberality with which 1t ';as ~ngrnally granted! The history of collegiate education .m Maryland might then have been very different, and this appeal to the Alumni of St. John's College would have been unnecessary. The ~barter of this College is a most comprehensive one. It provides that the College "shall be founded and maintained forever upon a most liberal plan, for the benefit of yout? of every religious denomination, who shall be freely admitted to equal privileges and advantages of education an~ to all. the .literary honors of the College, according to th~Ir. ment, ';;thout requiring or enforcing a~y civil or rehgwus .test. Oould any legal provision be wider, or appeal With surer confidence to all classes of citizens ? More.over, the subscriptions already obtained were made the L~sis for e~tendi~g legislative support, and authority _was giVen for mcreasmg them by appointing, in the charter, the Rev. Mr. John Carroll, the R'jv, William Smith and P~trick .Allison, clergymen respectively of the Roman Ca~~o~IC, Episcop~l ~nd Presbyterian churches, ,;agents for sohc1tmg and receivmg subscriptiG>ns and contributions for ~he said intended College and Seminary of universallearnmg of any per~o~ or persons, bodies politic and corporate, who may be w11lmg to promote so go?d a design;" and it was further enacted that "to provide a permanent fund for 7 the further encouragement and establishment of the said College, the sum of 1750£ current money be annually and forever hereafter given and granted by the public for the use of the said College.'' . The sum of $32,000 was obtained by subscription fro!:fi about two hundred imd fifty citizens of the State, among whom we find the names of Carroll, Chase, Stone, Martin, Dgle, Howard, Harrison, Paca, Clagett, Plater, ;Bowie, Barnes, Key, Henry, Weems, Gantt, Magruder, Chapman and others. The first meeting of the Board of Visitors and Governors was held Feb. 28th, 1786, and on the following day Annapolis was selected as the place for the location of the College, Annapolis and Upper Marlboro' being the only places voted for, and thus this building and four acres of land attached were obtained as a donation from' the State under the terms of the charter. On the 11th of November, 1789, the College was opened with imposing ceremonies of dedication and all due solemnity, and we are told that "all the public bodies were in attendance and formed a long procession from the State House to the College H all." The first commencement took place in 1793 and from that time until 1806 we have lists of graduates for almost every year. Among the students during this period are found those who were afterwards members of the U, S. Senate and Hous.e of Representatives, Governors of th'e State, members of the Executive Council, Judges of the Court of Appeals, Circuit and other State Courts, and not ·only s0ns of Maryland, but of her sister States also. How then was this career of prosperity interrupted ? · By the violation ·of plighted faith on the part of the State. By an Act passed J auuary 1, 1806, by a majority of eight, the State's donation was withdrawn, and a resolution immediately introduced to restore :1 portion of tile annuity fail ed by one vote. Whatever were the causes which led �8 to this action of the Legislature, Francis S. Key, in hi& oration before the Alumni, Feb. 22, 1827, referring to it says : "l undertake, however, to deny that there has been any fair expression of the sense of the people of Maryland upon the subject. At the unfortunate _reriod to which I refer, when the brightest ornament Df the State was cast. away from her protection, it was not the voice of the people but the strife of party by which it fell."-"As the ' people at large seldom saw it o~ heard of it, and a grea;t proportion of them, from their situation, felt no immediateinterest in its continuance, it was thought that the saving: of the funds could be called economy, and that the many who were to be flattered would be pleased with the destruction of what appeared to be only for the benefit of th€7 few."-"Each party caught at the advantage to be gained by the apparent popularity of the measme, and the reaL interests and honor of the Btate were sacrificed by each." Might we not say that history repeats itself after the lapse of three-quarters of a century? , In consequence of this action of the Legislature the College was temporarily suspended, and there is a blarak in its list of graduates until 1810, when the oldest living: alumnus of the College received his degree, the vene.rable Dr. John Ridout, who still lives to exert his influence in ·behalf of the College as a member of the Board of Visitors and Governors. In 1811 oae thousand dollars of the annuity were restored, but the College €Ontinued to languish until 1821, when a lottery granted by Act of Legislature added $20,000 to its funds. In the next year the· names of graduates reappear, one of whom was the Hon. Alex. Randall, Chairman of the Executive Committee, w_ ose unceasing devotion to the interests of tbe College is h continually illustrated by his earnest efforts to. promote its. welfare. 9. In the year 1832, in response to an urgent memorial of the Board of Visitors and Governors, reciting briefly the history of the College, and calling the attention of the General Assembly to the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Dartmouth College, in which the Acts of the New Hampshire Legislature w~re declared to· be "repugnant to the Constitution of the U nitedt States and so not valid,"-the Legislature restored two· thousand dollars more of the annuity but coupled it with the condition that this should be received "in full satisfaction of all legal and equitable. claims the College might have or be supposed to have against the State." ~he arrearages of the College annuity amoun.ted at tha.t time· to over $100,000, and in order to obtam any assistance· at all from the Sta.te the College was required to relinquish this amount and accept the meagre sum of three thousand dollars per annum in full of all legal and equita?le dai~s. Here was might vs. right. There is no question t~at If,. at any time between 1819, when t~e Dartmouth College decision was rendered, and 1832, smt had been brought,. the full amount. of the arrearages might have been recovered but in defence of the Board of Visitors and Gover' nors it may be said that "they believed their rights were· entirely in the power of the State and without any means. of being enforced " so "the deed of release was executed and E:ntered upon ' the records of the Court of Appeals. " · The resolution restoring two thousand dollars of t}1e annuity provided that the Governor of the State, President of the Senate, Speaker of the House of Delegates, ana Judges of the Court of Appeals, should be ex officio members of the Board of Visitors and Governors, and a c0m- ·· mittee was appointed to visit the College, which reported; at the December Session, 1833, as follows: "The prosperity of St. J ohn's College is deemed a subject of great importance, so that the youth from every �10 portion of the two great divisions of the State may convene with the well-grounded assurance of being able to acquire a liberal education and at the same time consummate the patriotic anticipations of the charter." "It is believed in no way can this [object] be so well realized as by sustaining on a liberal scale a seminary of learning at the seat of legislation." The committee recommend raising money by subscription, which was undertaken, and through the exertions of the late Rev. Dr. Hector Humphreys, Principal of the College, the sum of $11,000 was ·collected, which was applied in the erection of Humphreys Hall. The corner-stone of this building was laid on the 18th of June, 1835, by the presiding Judge of the Court of Appeals, and an address was delivered by Chancellor Johnson. On this subscription list we find the names of Bowie, Thomas, Magruder, Mackubin, Brewer, Randall, Alexander, Chase, Dorsey, Goldsborough, Murray, Key, Carroll, Merrick and others. It was the whole State which joined in contributing to the support of St. J ohn'q College and increasing the facilities for educating the sons ·of Maryland within her own borders. From this time on the College continued to graduate students until the beginnecessarily closed. ning of the late war when its doors were • But the Board of Visitors and Governors could not rest satisfied with the arbitrary settlement made with the State -in 1832, by which advantage was taken of their unfortunate condition to legalize apparently the supposed illegal Act of 1805, and consid.eringtoo that, under the terms of the charter itself, their predecessors had transcended their powers* and had no right to give the release required,•:The sixteenth section of the charter, which was relied on to sustain this view, reads as follows: "But in case at any time hereafter, through oversight or otherwise throu gh misapprehensions and mistalcen constructions of the powers, liberties and franchises, in this charter or act of incorporation granted or intended to be gt·anted, a n y ordinance should be made by the said Corporation of Visitors and Governors or any matters. don e a nd transacted by the CorporatiOn contrary to the tenor thereof, it is e;,:tcted that, although all such ordinances, acts and 'doings shall, in �12 of justice, the General Assembly appropriated to the support of the College the sum of $12,000 annYally for five· years from June 1, 1868-a sum which. with the former $3,000, did not equal the interest on· the amount claimed as. d~e to the College-and in consequence of this appropnatwn the appeal was abandoned. · This, :hen, is the history of the appropriation of $12,000: which was reluctantly renewed for six years by the Legislature of 1872, and still more reluctantly for two years by that of 1878, and which the recent Legislature re:used to con~inue _any longer. This was the appropriation upon whiCh, With the $3,000 already mentioned, the· College was dependent for support, and in return for which,. when first received, the Visitors and Governors established o.ne hundred and fifty scholarships for tuition, a:ssigning s1~ t~ each Senatorial District in the State. This appropnahon, moreover, was not connected with the subsequent. appropriation of $10,000 by the Legislature of 1 872:~ reduced to $5,200 by that of 1878, for furnishing board\ to two stude:pts (now one student), from each SenatoriaL District on condition that they teach two years within the· State, except in se far as the latter appropriation applied' to students who held scholarships for tuition under the former appropriation. Whatever may have influenced the action of the lateLegislature, it iB not now pertinent to inquire. Doubtless a false idea of economy influenced some, and perhaps personal motives influenced others, but if we look around andi inquire what other States are doing for their institutions of learning, we shall find that liberal appropriations are made from the State Treasury for their support. Some even go so far as to impose a special tax on the assessed value of property ·n the State for their leading college or university. It is not considered economy to restrict these institutions, and force those who desire a collegiate educa- 13 tion to take their money out of the State which theywould willingly spend within it, but it is found profitable· even to attract students from other States. But, there is no use crying over the past, and the question is, what are you going to do about it? The Collegeis shut up now to rely upon its present small appropriation. and the exertions of its Board of Visitors, its Faculty andi its Alumni, but with harmony of action between these three bodies, much may be accomplished. 'l'he recent action of the Faculty of the University of Missouri may furnish an example worthy of imitation, who, at the request of the· Board of Curators, "promised hearty co-operation in the effort to build up and make known the State University," distributed awong themselves the several Congressional Districts of the State, and agreed to visit them and present the claims of the University. The future Faculty of this College may well apportion the Congressional Districts and visit them to present the wants and claims of the· College-to speak publicly in its behalf, if the opportunity presents; if not, to make known privately its condition: and necessities, and try to enlist the interest and support of the people of the State-to induce them to imitate· their ancestors by liberal subscriptions, or at least to send their sons to be educated here. It is well to rewember that, with the numerous and. well equipped colleges of adjoining States, with the· wealthy instit ution in the City of Baltimore, strong in. the nur~ber .and ability of its instructors, and in the appliances for . instruction, and giving · both collegiate and university education-many students may not re~ main here long enough to obtain degrees. I t is manifest that the system of board and tuition scholarshipshas for some years furnishect the majority of the graduates,. and, if not repealed, will continue to furnish a few each year, but while the State is perfectly able to maintain it. �14 ),', 15 :·as a system of prizes for the best scholars from the schools ·1n each Senatorial District, strong objections have been :.made to it, and another Legislature may repeal it too. It is an unfortunate thing for a literary institution to be · dependent upon the caprices of any legislative body. But it is well to remember also that thorough preparation 'for higher instruction is very much needed in the State. .Even for our great University, instruction extending at least through the Sophomore year of an• ordinary college :is required, and there is no reason why the preparatory and :}ower collegiate classes of this College should not be filled to o verflowing. An institution furnishing such preparation is a great desideratum. There is room for it, and a wide field of usefulness is open before it. The higher instruction corresponding to the course of the Junior and Senior _ years should be retained'· for those who preferred to remain :here and obtain their degrees-for local circumstances, .Jamily ties, and ~he schol$-rship system (as long as it lasts,) ·will furnish some-but the course should be modified to . suit the number and labors of the Faculty employed. Moreover, the retention of this course will furnish a stimulus . ,to the lower classes, and will pr2serve the scholastic tradition, always strong in an old institution of learning. . Sentiment and rrwerence for the past is not to be disTegarded, for it has a powerful effect upon the future. But to bri.ng the College before the people, the present l 1elp of the Alumni _s needed. Each Alumnus can be a ceni ..tre of influence in his neighborhood or in his county. He ~-can visit the men of means and get subscriptions. I .notice that one object of_ the Society of the Alumni of Georgetown College, specified in its Constitution, is ''to seek to obtain donations and endowments, and to secure for the College the most favorable legislation," and why . should not that be an object of the Society of Alumni of .t his College? The older A.l)lmni can give their money and their sons. It is a notable fact that nearly all the tuition. money the College receives comes from Annapolis, and the bulk of that from Alumni of the College. Theyounger Alumni, of whom a goodly number has been turned out in the last thirteen years, and who owe all the education they. have to this College, can give their time and their energies in its behalf, can make known its ad.~ vantages and induce others to support it. Cast your eyes around this hall and witness the seventy-five names in,.. scribed on these shields of its graduates during the past ten years. These names are the silent representatives of numbers of others who completed here their collegiate education and left without reaching graduation. The young Alumni of the College are scattered through every county in the State, and if they will go to work in their counties and work persistently, I believe that at least a thousand dollars could be easily 1~aised in each county and much more in the City of Baltimore~ I cannot believe that the appropriation would have failed if all the Alumni, both old and young, had used the influence they possessed wi~h the Delegates from their counties. The Alumni as a body have never felt called upon before to go to work . in earnest and lend their aid in building up the College. It is true, meeting~ have been held on Commencement Day, speeches made~ and committees appointed to seU:d out circulars which met no response, but this is not work. A Board of Visitors and a Faculty cannot do every ~ thing. If the former discharge faithfully the duties of supervision and watch scrupulously ovel' the finances, and the latter fulfill efficiently the duties of administration and instruction with which they are charged, they are accom.plishing the objects for which they are appointed. ':l_1he reputation of a College must, after all, rest upon the fidelity and efficiency with which these duties are discharged ~ �I __ 16 •upon the exce~lence of its nnt~rnal administration and the thoroughness of ite1 instructivn. If the Faculty fulfill these ·duties satisfactorily, it is as much as can ordinarily he ·e xpected of them, hut in an emergency, such as has now arisen here, .they must labor more diligent] y outside of the <College, and in this they must be helped ·by the Alumni who have affection for their Alma Mater and will work ener:getically to increase her means and facilities for instruction. The suggestions made, if approved, can be acted upon, :and your own wisdom can arrange the necessary details ·for carrying them into effect. But the point to be kept ·in view is to bring the College more prominently before the people as a place of education for the whole State, to ·interest them in it, and evincing your own interest in a practical manner will inevitably awaken the interest of others. If people see that the Alumni and friends of the ·College, ncvw in its time of need, make no effort in its behalf, they will naturally fetl no interest in it and will •send their sons to more favored institutions. But if a strong and combined effort by Visitors, Faculty and Alumni is made to obtain money and students for the ·College, it must tell, and the failure of the appropriation may not be such a severe blow after all, and will not be, ·if it awakens this renewed interest on the part of friends - nd Alumni, and results in putting the College on a firmer a basis. The men tu,r ned out hy a college are the best testimony to its value and to the quality of its work-not ·all, for unfortunately aH do mot take advantage of the opportunities presented to the·m -but if those who do and who hold the imprim11.,iur of • the ·eollege for work faithfully done, take their stand along side of other men in active life, in the ·church, on the be• ch, at the bar, in the n .sick-room, school-.roo:m, ·counting-room or work-shop, .a nd hold their own amo:mg the first, the world will ask no better tes~imony dio .tJ:~<e 'tr.aini!{g th~y .hav.e received. . / 17 Therefore, my young friends, t(} you I would address . a ~few parting words.

Ve1·y soon our institution can claim a century of existence. But under another form and nnme it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is. therefore, one of the oldest colleges of our country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as A. D. 1G71, the upper house of the General Assembly passed nn act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the act of A. D. 1696. KING WrLLIAM's SCHOOL, however, was· not opened until A. D. 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre eminent among the brilliant number was Wiiliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WILLIAM'S ScrrooL was, in A. D. 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite nationnl ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, were among our alunini. Others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. Our venerable institution appeals to all that is most tender and sacred in the hearts of Marylanders This CENTENNIAL year of her charter gives her the riglit to remind t.h~m of this fact. • I. �,, i 'I ... I 10 The college is pleasantly situated at Annapoli~, on the banke of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of our situation. Our college green is spacious, amply shaded and most attractive to the eye, while our cnmpus, in the rear, is admirubly adapted for sports. Bordering our grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, anu well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical euucation, and could accommodate two hundred students. We can especially recommend to parrnts ancl guardians our Preparatory Depar:1'1ent as completely organized and efficiently conducted. Annapolis has rnilroad communication with Bnltimorc anu Washington three times a dlty, daily steamboat connection with the former citj, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. 11 ' I COURSE OF STUDY. The Preparatory Department ·of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and thinl, according to the grade of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Ulass who pa~s a satisfactory examination are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Department embraces three courses: First, the regular Academic Course, including Greek am] Latin, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, J:unior and Senior classes, entitlmg the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfa1 tory examination to the degree of B1ichelor of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according to the option of parents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a satisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proji.eient in that study. Third, the Post-Graduate Course, prescribed for students who aspire to the degree of Maste1· of Arts, which is conferred only on such graduates of the regular Academic Course as shall pursue for two years, at the college or elsewhere, a course of study assigned by the Faculty, and who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of their proficiency in said course by stated examinations, er by submit· ' i ting to the Faculty, at desig uated periods, such written theses as may be specifically required of each candidate for said degree. The degree of Master of Arts is not conferred in course, but only on the evidence of attainments in advanced studies. The Spanish Language, Vocal and Instrumental Music, Drawing and Painting, are taught at special charges, on terms arranged between students and the professors of those brunches. TIME AND 'l'ERMS OF ADMI~SION. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department nrc heltl on the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year All candidates for admission are requested to be present. on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each applicant, those of former tenchers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honomble discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of .A.rts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies: English Grammar; U. S. History; History or England; Ancient and Mo<lern Geograpky; Physical Geography; Arithmetic; Algebra through Quadralic Equatio'!s, eepecially Factoring and Fractions; Hadley's, Goodwin'~ or Kuhner,s Greek Grammar; Greek Reader; Xenophon's Ana.basis; Hark~ess', Gildersleeve'd or Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar; Cresar s Commentaries, or some equivalent; Ovid; Vlrg!l; Latin and Greek Composition. Candidates for admission to any high'er class must be examined in all the previous studies of the class they propose to enter. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. Candidates for admission into the lowest clnss of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education .. They will be examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. 1 11 i I I I I i I I, �~~===-====~==--:-====-. . ,---~=================--~--1 12 SCHEME OF STUDIES IN THE PREPARATORY DEPARTMENT.

EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. Writt<m examinations on the studies of the entire term•nre held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations nre combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, 1tt the close of a yenr, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pmsue with ndvantage the studies of the class, to which he belongs, will Jutve offt·red to him, olti.the first. day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve l!is lost position, and, in default of doing so, will he reduced to a lower class. A stnrlent tlcfident in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of nny stLHly, is at nny time liable to be reduced ton lower class iu thnt study. �20 21 A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the gmde of from 0 to 5. In order to pnss from a lower ton higher class in any study each stmlent must obtain an average of 2.5 on the recitations and on the examinations of the second term, and also an average uf 2.5 on the recitations of the \Vhole session, nnd the s~me average on the semi-1mnnal end annual c:xaminations combined. Demerits will be ghcu for absences not excused and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from college exercises, will be sent e>cry term to the parents or guardian·s of students of the c.ollege classes, and monthly to those of students of the preparatory classes. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will · be required to leave the in~titution. Alt students are i·eqitfred to be preseTit promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave tlte college wltile college exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. The attention of pxrents and guai·dians is .~pecially called to these regulations, and theii' co-operation earnestly i·equested. '1.'hey are also solicited, on the occasion of lwlidays, not to detain students at home beyond Ute time allotted for suspension of college exercises. Students absentf1·om any cause except protracted sickness will be marked eero on all recitations made during theii· absence. When the cause of absence is satiefactory to the faculty they will be allowed to make up the omitted recitations. The degree of Pro.ffoient, conferred upon students of the Select Course who shall complete the cour~e ·and obtain an average of 4 in any special study <luring the lai;t year of the course In that study, and upon stuclents of the reguhir Academic Course in any elective study iu which they shall complete the course aud obtain a like average.

HE charter of St. John's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest colleges in the country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the upper house of the General Assembly passed an act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the educa1ion of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose_ learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distingui~hed as a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni, and many others, scarcely leEs eminent, could be mentioned. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situa- �10 11 tion. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington three times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department are held o·n the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year. All candidates for admission are requested to be present on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each appli· cant, those of former teachers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admis· sion to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies: COURSE OF STUDY. The Preparatory Department of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and third, according to the grade of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination, are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Department embraces three courses: First, the regular Academic Course, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, entitling the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfactory examination to the degree of Bachel?1' of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according to the option of pa.rents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a sB.tisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proficient in that study. Third, the Post· Graduate Course, prescribed for students who aspire to the degree of .Master of Arts, which is conferred only on such graduates of the regular Academic course as shall pursue for two years, at the college or elsewhere, a course of study assigned by tile Faculty, and who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of their proficiency in said course by stated examinations, or by submitting to the Faculty, at designated periods, such written theses as may be specif· ically required of each candidate for said degree. The degree of Master of Arts is not conferred in course, but only on the evidence of attainments in advanced studies. TIME AND TERMS OF ADMISSION. '· "j·: ,, ·.:' English Grammar; U. S.

These languages will be commenced by such students in the Freshman Class. Students of the regular Academic Course are required to study either French or German during the Junior year, and both French and German dming the Senior year, unless they shall have completed the three years' course in these languages before reaching the Junior or Senior year. For classical students below the Junior Class the French and German languages are elective studies. Apparatus for gymnastic exercises has been erected, the use of which is granted on payment of a small fee. 4 COURSE OF INSTRUCTION. 'J'he course of instruction embraces the following dr.partmenls : I. ANCmNT LANGUAGES-including the Latin and Greek languages, Greek and Roman History, Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman Literature. Prof. HOPKINS. II. MODERN LANGUAGES-Including the French and German Languages and Literature. Profs. LEROUX and HOPKINS. III. MATHEMATICS-Including Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Astronomy. Prof. HAGNER. IV. NATURAL SCIENC:JE-lncluding Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. Prof. DAY. CJollegiate CJourse in Scientific Branches. In the prosecution of study in the scientific department, an effort is made not to flood the memories of students with a long list of facts, but rather in the first place to inculcate a love of truth with habits of careful observation, and in tlie second place to develop, encourage and train a tendency to think intelligently in regard to natural phenomena and to res.son back from an observed phenomenon to its cause. The great value of scientific study in a collegiate course, as a medium of mental discipline, is becoming more and more apparent every day to those interested in education, and in view gf the fact that this disciplinary effect is enhanced iu proportion to the amount of experimental work performed by the student himself, every effort is made constantly to improve laboratory facilities. I. PHYSICS-The course in Physics is pursued and is completed by the Sophomore Class. It consists in study from a text book, supplemented by experimental lectures and by laboratory work on the part of the student. Each student is required, on completing a given laboratory exercise, to write a careful statement of the observations he has made and the conclusions he has drawn from them. This statement is carefully read and criticised by the instructor. The text book in use is" Stuart's Physics with Hill's Questions." " Ganot's Physics" is used for reference. 11. CHEMISTRY-The course in Chemistry covers the Junior and Senior years. The work of the Junior class is confined to the so-called" non-metals," and the laboratory work of this class is intended especially to cultivate the observing powers and to illustrate carefully the most important general principles of chem- �20 21 istry, a thorough understanding of which is regarded as a matter of the highest importance. Dnring the first term of the Senior year tke study of the " metals" is taken_ up : the laboratory practice, while in itself of a somewhat more special or technical character than that of the previous year, still has for its aim the demonstration of fundamental laws rather than the detailed study of particular bodies. During tlie second term of the Senior year a course of lectures on the " Chemistry of Carbon Compounds," or "Organic Chemistry," will be given. These lectures will constitute a very important part of the course iu Chemistry, ns it is in this pn't of the whole field that many of the most important chemical theories have been developed. Candidates for this degree are required to select at least two of the departments of study specified in this catalogue, and, under tlie direction of the professors in these departinents, to pursue their studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate Course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications for this degree. The foregoing statements apply particularly, it will be remembered, to the general course in Chemistry. Students who desire to make Chemistry a specialty will be afforded ample opportunity for s.pecial work, although they will first be required to take the general course before entering upon work of a strictly technical character. The text books used are as follows : "JUNIOR-Miller's Elements of Inorganic Chemistry." "SENIOR-Same as above and Beilstein's Manual of Analysis." SPECIAL STUDENTS-" Fresenius' Qualitative and Quantitntive Analysis," also other booke which may be ndnpted to special cnses. The studies of the several cla~ses have been so arranged as to make instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate Course. Additions will from time to time be made to tlle philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratory nnd cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. POST-GRADUATE COURSE. The Post-Graduate Course of Studies, extending through two years, and pursued at the college or elsewhere, is assigned by the faculty to candidates for the degree of Maste1· of Arts. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, at the close of a year, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to hiru, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to' retrieve his lost position, and, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A student deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 2.5 on the recitations and on the examinations of the second term, and also au average of 2.5 on the recitations of the whole session, and the same average on the semi-annual and annual examinations combined. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from college exercises, will be sent every term to the paren~s or guardians of students of tbe college classes, and monthly to those of students of the preparatory classes. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one te1·m, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long as he shall remain a member of it., and whenever any student I �------------------.. . . ------~~~=c::=====~----~1 22 23 can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution. AU students are required to be present promptly on the opening day of tll6 stJtJsion, and no student will be permitted to leave the college while college exercises are progressing, except fa cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. The attention of parents and guardians is speciaUy called to these regulo,tions, and their co-operation earnestly requested. They are also solicited, on the occasion of liolidays, not to detain students at home beyond the time aUotted for suspension of college exercises. Students absent from any cause except p1·otracted sickness will be marked zero .on all recitations made during their aisence. When the cause of abse11ce is satisfactory to the faculty they will be allowed to make up 1716 omitted recitations. any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (2.5) in any one study for the academic year. DEGREES.· The following academic degrees are conferred by the college : The degree of Master of Arts, conferred after completion of the Post-Graduate Course of studies. The degree of Bachelor of Arts, conferred upon students of the Senior Class who shall obtain an average of 3.75 on all the studies of the Senior year. The Degree of ProfllJ'ient, conferred upon Students of the Select Course who shall complete the course and obtain an average,pf 4 in any special study during the last year of the course in that study, and upon students of the regular Academic Course in any elective study in which they shall complete the course and obtain a like average. The degree of Distinguished ProftlJ'ient is similarly conferred upon any student who shall obtain an average of 4.5 in any special study. Certificates of Distinction of the First and of the &cond Grade are presented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4 respectively in all their studies and in conduct for the academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in auy one branch of study are honorably mentioned; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon LIBRARY. The library of the college consists of about 6,000 volumes, the use. of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the Library, and, by means of the regular Library fund, subscriptions have been made to a number of American and Foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors and students, the claims of the college Library are commended to the alumni of the college and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds for the Library will be gratefully acknowledged. LITERARY SOCIETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before th1:se societies, on the Tuesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. A Young Men's Christian Association is in active and successful operation, and has been productive of much good. SOCIETY OF ALUMNI. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on.which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate education at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are considered members of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. �I 24 PUBLIC WORSHIP. The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scripture and prayer in the College Hall. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays at su~h church as their parents or guardians may direct, aud to abstam from whatever is inconsistent with a due observance of th_e Sabbath. The principles and duties of the Christian Religion will be constantly enforced in the teaching and in the discipline of the college, but no instruction whatever is given or influence exerted in the interest of any particular denomination of Christians. TERMS AND VACATIONS. The Annual Commencement of the college takes place on the last Thursday in June. The collegiate year begins on the third Wednesday in September and ends on the last Thursday in June. The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend fro tr. the last Thursday in June to the third Wednesday in September, and from the 23d of December to the first Monday in January, both inclusive..

EXPENSES. The charge for the entire scholastic year, beginning on the third Wednesday in September and ending on the last Thursday in June, for students lodging and boarding in the College Halls is $275.00, not including a fee of $1.50 per term which each stu'. dent is required to deposit with the Treasurer, to be paid by him to such church as the student may attend. This amount covers all the ordin11ry college expenses for board~rs except text-b?oks, and must be invariably paid semi-annually in advance; that 1s, $137.50 at the opening of the first term in September, and $137.50 at the opening of the second term, on the 15th of February following. No deduction wilt be made except for the protracted absence of a student caused by his sickness. 25 For students lodging in the College:·Halls and having table bOai'd elsewhere a proportionate deduction will be made for the session. For charges paid by incumbents of Senatorial Sciholarships see page 27.

Students holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to lodge in the College Halls and board at the College Commons. The same requirement is also ordinarily made of other students whose parents do not reside in the city of Annapolis; but upon the request in writing of his parent or guardian, at the beginning of a term, the President may, in his d~scretion, allow a student to board in the city, in the family of any 1·elative or friend who may be willing to uecome responsible for the orderly depo; tmeut of such student. But no boarder in the College Commons will be allowed to change his place of boarding until all arrearages shall have been paid. �26 27 Students not holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to provide themselves with furnitme, including stove. Fnniture may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. The boarding honse will be closed dnring t,he Christmas and Summer vacations. Disbursements will be made for personal expenses of students if funds shall be deposited Joy parents for this purpose, but no advanceB wilt be made by the college. Books will also be furnished to students, provided a deposit of ten dollars be made for that pnrpose at the beginning of each term. At final settlement the unexpended balar:.;:e, if aay, will be refunded. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide_their"own text-books, and to pay into the treasury of the college, at the beginning of each term, the sum of $37.50. There are at this date, July 1, 1884, fourteen vacancies in these scholarships, viz.: one each from the conuties of Anne Arundel Cecil, Charles, Dorchester, Howard, Kent, Montgomery, Quee~ Anne's, St. Mary's, Somerset, Washington and Worcester, and the First and Second Legislative Districts of Baltimore City. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint those candidates~who are not less than sixt:en years of age and are most advanced in their studie3. It is desired that all applicants herenfter should be prepared, in at least mathematics and English stndies, to enter the Freshman Class of the college. ifirThe Secretaries of the several School Boards are)·equested to comrnnnicate to the President of the college the names of those former'incumbents_of these scholarships~ who are now, or may llereafter be, employed in teaching.in their respective counties or ia the City of Baltimore. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. The General Assembly of the State (Acts of 1872, chapter 393, and 1878, chapter 315) has provided for furnishiag board, fuel, lights and washing to the incumbent of one State Scholarship from each Senatorial District in the state, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners; by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective districts, after competitive examination. The law 1·equires that the candidates shall produce befo1·e the Boai·d of School Commissioners satiefactory widen~d of th~ii' moral character, and of their inability, or the in'Lbflity of their parents or guardians, to pay the regulai· college charges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the several school boards for the use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tmable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the college for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving college. To o!Jtuin a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the act, candidates should btl prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the college. The Boards of School Commissioners are ea1·neslly' i·equested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships o.ne year in the case of worthy students. COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of scholarships in connection with the· ·college: For a permanent scholarship for tuition, $1,200.

HE charter of St. JQhn's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. ·But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest collegf's in the country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capi•al of Maryland, as ei1rly as 1671, the upper house of the General Assembly passed an act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue" This was followed by the act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KIN& WILI.IAM's SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ocle, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished 11s a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned .. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for ·sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. lnclccd, 1. �------------------... ~ 11 10 the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. _ Annapolis has railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington three times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. Course of Study. The Preparatory Department of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and third, according to the grade .of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination, are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Depa1·tment embraces three courses: First, the i·egular Academic Course, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, entitling the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfactory examination to the degree of Bachewr of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according t9 the option of parents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a satisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proficient in that study. Third, the Postgraduate Course, prescribed for students who aspire to the degree of Master of Arts, which is conferred only on such graduates of the regular Academic course as shall pursue for two years, at the collPge or elsewhere, a course of study assigned by the Faculty, and who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of their proficiency in said course by stated examinations, 01· by 'submitting to the Faculty, at designated periods, such written theses as may be apecifically required of each candidate for said degree. The degree of Master of Arts is not conferred in course, but only on the evidence of attainments in advanced studies. For course in Mechanical Engineering see page 19. Time and Terms of Admission. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department are held on the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year, and candidates for admission are requested to be present, if possible, on those days. Testimonials of good moral character ?1ust be fumished by each applicant, those of former teachers bemg preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies : English Grammar; U. 8. History; History of England; Ancient ancl Modern Geography; Physical Geography; Arithmetic; Algebra through Quadra+,ic Equations, especially Factoring and Fractions; Hadley's, Goodwin's or Kuhner's Greek Grammar; Greek Read"lr; Xenophon's Anabasis: Harkness', Gildersleeve's or Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar; Cresar's Commentaries, or some equivalent; Ovid; Virgil; Latin and Greek Composition. .- .i ~ I I Candidates for admission to any higher class must be examined in all the previous studies of the class they propose to enter. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. Candidates for admission into the lowest class of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education. They will be examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. �12 13 SCHEME OF STUDIES IN THE COLLEGIATE OOURSE OF STUDIES FOR THE Third Preparatory Class.

MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS-Under Section 1225 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, relating to Military· Instruction in Colleges and Universities, this College has secured the services of an Officer of the U. S. Army as Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and, by the same authority, is supplied with arms and accoutrements for the use and instruction of the students as Milltary Cadets. The students are at present divided into two companies and are drilled four times a week in United States Army Tactics, infantry and artillery. The course also includes a weekly lecture on Military History, the individual instruction of Cadet Officers, Court Martial and Guard duty, construction of Field Works, and Target Practice. All students (except such as may be physically disqualified) are required to engage in the military exercises as a part of their physical training. A suit of blue, with caps to match, of good material and workmanship, has been selected as the uniform of the cadets, and is required for the miVtary dl'ills and parades. The unifol'ms will hereafter be made in Annapolis under the supervision of the President and Military Instructor. This Department of the College is confidently recommended to the favorable consideration of parents and guardians as being efficiently conducted, highly important as a means of discipline, and promotive of a vigorous and harmonious physical development. �--------------·~ 22 23 average of 2.5 on the recitations of the whole session, and the same average on the semi-annual and annual examinations com· bined. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the yenr, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long- as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution.

The law rcquii'es tltat tlie candidates shall produce before the Board of School Commissioners satisfactory evidence of their character, and of tlteir inability, or tlte inability of their parents or guai·dians, to pay the regular college cltarges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the several school bonrds for the use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the college for· the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and Uiat they will teach school within the State for not less than two ycnrs after lcaying college. To obtain a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the act, candidates moral �shoulctbe--p1•epared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the college. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly re-quested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one year in case of worthy students. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide their own text-books, and to pay iuto the trer1sury of the college, at the beginning of each term, the snm of $37.50. There are at this date (August 1, 188,'J), eight vl!cancies in these scholarships, viz., one each from the counties of Allegany, Baltimore, CaIToll, Cecil, Garrett, Prince George, and Wicomico, and from the Third Legislative District of Baltimore City. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint tliose camli~ dates who are not less than sixteen years of age and are most advanced in their studies. It is desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the college. ~The Secretaries of the several School Boanls arc requested to communicate to the President of the college the nmnes of those former incumbents of these scholarships who are now, OJ' may hereafter be, employed in teaching in their respective counties or in the City of Baltimore. COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors :,ind Governors for the establishment of scholarships in connection with the college. For a permanent scholarship for tuition, $1,200. For a pcrm:i.nent scholarship for board and tuition, $4,000. For n scholarship for the tuition of a student through all the college cl,isse3, $000.

PROSPECTUS -OF THE- AOADEMIC_._i\_L YE~l\_R 1886--87. ---_:_O HISTORY, LOCATION AN~ AC_CESS. The charter of St. John's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another' form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore,: one of the oldest colleges in the country. At the City of St. Mary's, tlien the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "fqr founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue.'' This was followed by. the Act of 1696; establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of tlte most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose learning and eloqnence have a national fame. KING WILLIAM'S ScHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a ~tates­ man, are among its alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. · The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesa.peake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its sitt1ation. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in tbe rear, admirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch is ·. • Annapolis has railroad ~ommun· . . and Washington three times a da icat~onw1th Baltimore nection with the f . y, daily steamboat con. . ormer city, and telegra h. ,nectrnn with every part of .th e country .. p ic con- Courses or Study The Preparatory Department oft~ classes, entitled first second d th" e college has three f t di ' an ird, according t d o s u es.

It will be seen that in the Classical course, the study of Greek and Mathematics is discontinued after the Sophomore year, at which point the study of the Sciences begins. The Classical student will thus devote two years to scientific study, the particular branches being elective. Also,· the student of the Latin Scientific course, taking no Greek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at .the end of the Sophomore year, enjoys a fuller course in English, and begins the study of science earlier than the Classical student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission), four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics and Chemistry, and to Mathematics. Also, in the Scientific course, four years are given to the study of English. A full. course in both French and German-three years in each--is required for every degree. Departments. The course of instruction embraces the following departments: I. Ancient Languages-Including the Latin and Greek Languages, Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman Literature. II. Modern Languages-..:.Including the French and German Languages and Literature. III. Mat7iematics--Including Pure Mathematics and Mechanics. IV. Natural Science-Including Zoology, Botany, . Physics, Chemistry and Astronomy. V. History, English and Law--Including Ancient~ Medireval and Modern History, English Composition, Rhetoric and Elocution 1 History of the English Language and Literature, and International and Constitutional Law. -19- ! • VI. 11£eclianical Engineering. VII .. Military Science and Tactics. The Departments of Mechanical Engineering and :Military Science and Tactics having been recently organized, the following description of the course in each is appended : Mechanical Engineering. -The c~urse in this Dep~rtment will cover four years and consist of both t7ieoretwal and practical instruction. A work-shop has been opened, in which each engineering. student is required to spend several hours per w ee k . Th IS sh op will be enlarged as circumstances demand. Each student has also several hours' practice per week in the Drawing-room, receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective, isometrical and free-hand <!t'awing. In connection with this branch, during the Sophomore and Junior years, each student has one problem per week in Descriptive Geometry. .These probl!'lmS are made as practical as possible. The Junior and Seni?r stu~ents have practice in designing, and each .one IS reqmred to make complete working drawings of .at least one machine of his own design. The lectures in design and fabrication of machinery and in contracts and estima.tes, cover the ·Junior and Senior years, and are considered a very important part · of the course. ~ For outline of the course, arranged by years and terms , see pages 14 to 17.

E., (Mechanical Engineer), together with a diploma certifying to this effect, will be conferred at the Annual Commencement upon all graduates ·of this Department. Military Science and Tactics. Under Section 1225 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, relating to ~Iilitary Instruction in Colleges and Universities, this College has secured the senices of an Offic~r of the U. S. Army as Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and, by the same authority, is supplied with arms, ammunition and accoutrements for the use and instruction of the students as Military Cadets. The students are at present divided into two companies, and are drilled four thnes a week in United States Army Tactics, infantry and artillery. The course also includes a weekly lecture on Military History, the individual instruction of Cadet Officers, Court Martial and Guard duty, construction of Field Works, and Target Practice. All students (except such as may be physically disqualified) are require!'! to engage in the military exercises as a part of their physical training. A suit of blue, with caps to match, of good material and workmanship, has been selected as the uniform of the cadets, and is required for the military drills and parades. The uniform, including cap, costs from $12 to $18, CLCcording to the quality of the material and the size of the student. This Department of the College is confidently recom- -21mended to the ~avorable consideration of parents and guardians as being efficiently conducted, highly important as a means of discipline, and promotive of a vigorous and harmonious physical development. Department of Natural Science. The studies of the several classes have be«:!n soarranged as to make instruction in Physics and Chemistry a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions are from time to time made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratories and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received-. Some important changes having recently been made in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. I. Zoology-The study of Zoology will be pursued during the first term of the Freshma11. Year. The proximity of the College to the water affords special advantages for the study of marine forms .of animal life. 2. Botany-In this branch special attention will be gi:Ven to systematic Botany, the work consisting of daily recitations from text-books, and the class makfag frequent excursions to the woods, so as to study the habitat of the various plants. · Students will be required fo analyze fr9m 100 to 125 specimens, and are :xpected to become so familiar with the characteristics of twenty or more families, that they can recognize at sight plants belonging thereto. In addition, the course will include elementary studies in Structural and Physiological Botany, the instruction in which will be largely by lectures. 3. Physics-This subject is pursued for a year and a half. The first term of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics, Dynamics, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, etc.; also, of the subject of Sound. The second term of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term of the Junior Year to Electricity. The work i I '. ! �I\ -22- consists of almost daily recitations from Garrot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult experiments performed by the Professor. The class will be required, in the solution of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent application of the principles learned. 4. Okemistry.-ln this branch the second term of the Junior Year is devoted to General Chemistry, particularly of the non-metals, that the student may become familiar with the elementary gases and the methods of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagents. The whole of the Senior year is devoted to analytical Chemistry. During the first term of that year the student learns the action of each reagent on the bases and acids. This work is continued until the student becomes so familiar with their reactions that he can himself devise methods of separating them from each other. The remainder of the first term is then spent in the analyjliS of known material according to well arranged and easy methods. The text-book is Prescott's smaller or larger Qualitative Analysis. The student is recommended to purchase the latter because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work here described. The course consists of daily work in the laboratory together with daily recitations on the work of the day previous. The student is early taught to become '"familiar with -the writing of reactions, and an important part of his recitatio;ns consists in the expressing, in chemical equations, of the relations previously described. During the second term the student is given •unknown material containing from two to five bases with acids, anil he is expected to have become so familiar with the methods of separation that he can follow the tables without text-books, and usually, upon first report, name the elements cont.ained in the substance analyzed. Each student is provided with a table together with all the common reagents and necessary apparatus. .An account is kept of the reagents and apparatus thus provided, as well as of all returned by the student at the end of the year, the charge being made as small as will -23- suffice to cover expenses. The cost of these, including gas, has averaged from $5 to $6 per year to each student. Special attention is called to this fact, as it is believec1 that no college in the land affords its students equal Qpportunities to become thoroughly acquainted with qualitative analysis at so small a cost. During this term, also; special· attention is paid to the writing of Qxidation and reduction equations by a new method,· whereby the pupil cannot fail to express any reaction, however difficult, when he knows tl:).e most important substances formed. Lectures in Organic Chemistry will also be given, so that the student may readily learn the :simplest facts relating to this subject. A course in Quantitative Analysis can be given to any :student who may wish to pursue the study further. Post-Graduate Courses. Post-Graduate courses extending through two years, and pursued at the College or elsewhere, are assigned by the Faculty to candidates for the Master's degree. Candidates for this degree al'e required to select at least two of the departments of study specified in this catalogue, and, under the direction of the professors of these departments, to pursue their studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications for this degree. Any graduate of the College who shall have been admitted a member of one of the learned professions, or who shall have obtained a diploma.from any Law, Medical, Theological or Scientific School, shall be entitled to th'e Master's degree three years after his graduation. 'The degree of Master is not conferred in coitrse, but -only on evidence of proficiency in advanced studies, as .above indicated. Examinations, Reports, Conduct. Written examinations on the studies of the entire · term are held at the close of each term. The marks for I �-24- these examinations are combined with the marks for da.ily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, at the close of a year, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue· with adva:itage the stuJies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve his lost position,. and, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. tention of parents and gitardians is especially called to these. regitlations, ·and their co-operation earnestly reqitested. They are also solicited, on the occasion ~,f lwlidays, not to detain stitdents at home beyond the time allotted for sitspension of College exercises. A st?.tdent when absent is marked zero on all omitted recitations. These marks will be sitbseqitently erased by vote of tlte Facitlty, pro·vided the caitse of absence is found to be protracted illness j in sltort absences (of a day or two) the stitdent is allowed to 1nak1J itp the omitted recitations only fa case of actital sickness. A student deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to. a higher class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 2.5 on the recitations and on the examinations of the second term, and also an average of 2.5 on the recitations of the whole session, and the same average on the semi-annual and annual examinations combined. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100· demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demeritri. for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the Gollege so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution. i I II I I: ·. . [' \ ! I -25- I All students are required to be present promptly on. the opening day of tlte session, and no stitdent will be permitted to leai>e the College while College exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. The at- Certificates of Distinction of the First and of the Second Grade are presented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct, for the academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (2.5) in any one study for the academic year. Libr~ry. The library of the Co1lege consists of about 6,000 volum.es, the use of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made .. to the library, and, by means of the regular library fund, subscriptions have been made to a number of .American and Foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable ·auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors and students, the claims of the College library are commended to the alumni of the College and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds for the library will be gratefully acknowledged. �-26- -27- Literary Societies. There are two J_:.iterary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) arnong the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before these societies, on the Tuesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by th~m. tunity will be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The study of Christian Evidences is assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All students are reqliired to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times; at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy of the several religious denominations of Annapolis by which students may enjoy the advantages of. special instruction in the tenets of their respective churches. Degrees. The following academic degrees are conferred by the College: 1. The degree of Bachelor of .Arts, conferred after the satisfactory completion of the Classical course. 2. The degree of Bachelor of Letters C'Jnferred, in like manner, upon graduates iri the Latin-Scientific course. 3. The degree of Bachelor of Science, upon graduates· in the Scientific course. 4. The degree of Mecharl!ical .Engineer, upon graduates in the course of Mechanical Engineering. 5. The Master's degree, (whether of Arts, Letters, or Science), conferred after the completion of a Post-Graduate course, and upon the recommendation of the Faculty. Society of Alumni. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All form~ students who have completed their collegiate education (whether graduates or not) at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are considered members of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. Public Worship and Religious Instruction. The exercises. of each day are opened with the reading of the Scriptures and prayer in the College Hall. It must not be assumed, because St. John's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work and government. On the contrary, every oppor- Terms and Vacationt,1. The Annual Commencement of the College takes place on the last Thursday in June. The collegiate year begins on the third Wednesday in September and ends on the last· Thursday in June. The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend from the last Thursday in June to the third Wednesday in September, and from the 23rd of December to the first Monday in January, both inclusive. The 22nd of February, Good Friday, Easter Monday and the 4th of .July are holidays, as is also the day of Public Thanksgiving appointed by the Governor of Maryland, or by the President of the United States. Expenses. The charge for the entire scholastic year, beginning on the third Wednesday in September and ending on the last Thursday in June, for students" lodging and boarding in the College Halls, is as follows : For students of the Collegiate Departrnent.$275 00 " " " " First Preparatory Class. 260 00 " " " '' Second " " . 250 00 " " " ,, Third '' " . 240 00 Every such student is also required to deposit with· the Treasurer a fee of $1.50 per term, to be paid by him to such church as the student may attend. These amounts cov.er all the ordinary College expenses for boarders, except text-books, and must be invariably 'I r I ! i �i :i '" -28- 1'1 -29- paid semi-annually in advance; that is, one-half at the . opening of the first term in September, and· one-half at the opening of the second term, on the 15th of February following. JYo deduction will be made, except for tlie iii ,"I I Disbursements will be made for personal expenses of students if funds shall be deposited by pa.rents for this purpose, bid no advances will be made by tlie Collepe. Books will also be furnished to students, provided a ileposit of ten dollars be made for that purpose at the beginning of each term. At final settlement the unexpended balance, if any, will be refunded. State Scholarships for Board and Tuition. The General Assembly of the State (Acts of 1872, chapter 393, and 1878, chapter 315), has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing to the incumbent of one State Scholarship from each. Senatorial District in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective districts, after competi- protracted absence of a student caused by liis sickness. I I I I Students lodging in the College buildings and boarding elsewhere, in clubs or otherwise, are charged from $10 to $15 per annum for room-rent. For charges paid by incumbents of Senatorial Scholarships, see page 30. The fees of students who reside in Annapolis, are as follows: :' I , In tlie Preparatory Departm1 nt, for each Term, payable in advance, for tuition and other cliar,qes : First Class ......................... $30 00 Second Class ....................... 25 00 Third Class ....... : .........,. . . . . . . . 20 00 In tlie Colle,giate Department, for each Term, payable in advance: '1 I Tuition ............................ $45 00 No student will be matriculated, nor will his name be entered upon the rolls of any term, until he shall present to the Faculty a receipt from the Treasurer for all dues and arrearages; and no diploma will be awarded unless the candidate shall present to the Faculty a similar receipt, including a fee of ten dollars for diploma. Wilful damage will be made the ground of additional charge, to be defrayed by the perpetrator. Students holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to lodge in the College Halls and board at the College Commons. Students not holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to provide themselves with furniture, including stove. Furniture may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. The boarding house will be closed during the Christmas and Summer vacations. tive examination. '/lie law requires that tlte candidates sliall produce before the Board oj School Commissioners satisfactory evidence. of tlteir moral character, and of tlielr inability, or tlie inability of their parents or guardians, to pay tlie regular College charges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in .conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the .several School Boards for the· use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required bylaw to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the College for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To obtain. a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College. The Boards of School Uommissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the selecticm of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The Faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one year in case of worthy students. The incumbents Of these scholarships will hereafter I' I I �___ w_. -30- I ', ' 1,: ! I I I!' 'I '! i be required to provide their own text-books, and to pay into the treasury of the College, at the beginning of each term, the sum of $37.50, from which no deductions will be made for abseiice. There are known to be at this date (July 20, 1886), six vacancies in these scholarships, viz: one ea,ch from the counties of Caroline, Kent, Harford, Somerset and Talbot, and from the Second Legislative District of Baltimore city. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint those candidates who are not less than sixteen years of age, and are most advanced in their studies. It is desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. ~The Secretaries of the several School .Boards are requested to communicate to the President of the College the names of those former incumbents of these scholarships who are now, or may hereafter be, em-. ployed in teaching in their respective counties or in the City of Baltimore. Collegiate Scholarships. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of scholarships in connection with the College : For a permanent scholarship for tuition, $i,200. For a permanent scholarship for board and tuition, $4,000. For a scholarship for the tuition of a student through all the College classes, $300. For a scholarship for the board and tuition of a student through all the College classes, $1,000. For any other scholarships the sum reduced shall be in the same proportion, the money in each case to be paid in advance into the treasury of the College. The establishment of these scholarships is commended to the attention of the alumni and.friends of the College. ~~,,,. ~ .... ~~:~ Exercises of Commencement Week JUNE n to 25, I885. 0 BACCALAUREATE SERMON, BY REV.

I Ii I i l ii I f 1 'I ir I The charter of St. John's College was granted in li84, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest colleges in the country. At the City of 8t. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the Act of 1696, establishing KING vV1LLIA111's ScHooL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was vVilliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING 'VILLIAM's SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected ·with the State of 1\Iaryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Sc~tt Key, author of our. favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, chstinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni; and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn River, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, wlnle the campus, in the rear, is achnirahly adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek,'' a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings m:e large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and · technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has railroad communication with Baltimore and 'Yashington several times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. COURSES OF STUDY, The Preparatory Departrn.ent of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and third,, according to grade of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination, al'e qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. Fol' scheme of studies see page 17. .......--.;;;;;;;::---=--~--==========;;;;;;;;;;;---iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiilll. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . The.Collegiate Department embraces four courses for undergraduates <each occupying four years, vi<l : L The Classical, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts; 2. The Latin-Scientific, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Letters ; 3. The Scientific, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science ; 4. The Mechanical Engineering course, leading to the degree of Mechanical Engineer. The scheme of studies in the different courses, arranged, ·for the sake of comparison, in parallel columns, will be found on pages 21 to 22. In order to obtain one of the above-mentioned degrees, a <Student must have completed satisfactorily the course as herein laid ~own ; but for such as may not be studying for a degree, select courses will be arranged according to the option of parents and guardians, ,'subject to the approval of the Faculty. On the successful completion -of such special courses certificates will be given. Postgraduate courses are arranged for those graduates who wish to become ca~didates for the Master's degree. See page 26. I TIME AND TERMS OF ADMISSION, The regular examinatioµs for admission into the College or the Pre:paratory Department are held on the third vVeclnesday and followin"' 'Thursday of September in each year, and candidates for aclmissio~ :are requested to be present, if possible, on those clays. Testimonials -of good moral character must be furnished by each applicant, those of former teachers being preferred, and, if from another college, he nrnst prnsent a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates .for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the i·egular course in the Pre'paratory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies : English Grammar and Composition, (including Punctuation); u. s. History; History of England : Geography; .fhysical Geography: Physiology ; Arithmetic; ..Algebra through Quadratic Equations,especially Factoring and Fractions; Hadley's, Goodwin's or Kubner's G:ryiek Grammar ; Xenophon's Anabasis, (four books); Harkness', GildersleeveC!Jl or Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar. ·Coosar's Commentaries, (four books); Ovid, (fifteen hundred lines); Virgil, (tw~ books of the AJ:neid); Latin and Greek Composition. Candidates for other degrees must pass the same examination except in Greek. · ' Candidates for admission to any higher class must be examined in the previous studies of the class they enter. Candidates for admission into the lowest. class of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the el.ements of a primary English education. They will he examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. The course of study in the Classics and Mathematics in the Preparatory and lower collegiate classes has been arranged in accordance with the requirements of the examination for matriculation in the Johns' Hopkins University. ~ll 'i �! 16 Circitlar of St. John's Colle.ge. A student who may have advanced through the Sophomore Class is entitled to matriculate at Johns' Hopkins University without undergoing any examination. He is also permitted t? .ente~ the second year's course at the University if he can pass satisfactorily a test examination. And a graduate of B.

ON DEPARTMENT OF l'llEN'r&.L, JIORAL AND SOCJIAL SCIENCE. REMARKS I ! I I I i (,OURSES. It will be seen that in the Classical course, the study of Greek and Mathematics is discontinued after the Sophomore year, at which point the study or' the Sciences begins. The Classical student will thus devote two years to scientific study, the particular branches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Scientific course, taking no Greek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at the end of the Sophomore year, enjoys a fuller course in English, and begins the study of Science earlier than the Classical student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission), four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics and Chemistry, and to Mathematics. Also, in the Scientific course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German-three years in each-is required for every degree. No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for whicl;l. they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. 25 CMistian Evidences.-A course of study on theism Christian evi- den~es, ·and the religions of the world extends thr~ugh the entire Semor year. Ethics.-The study of ethics, _which extends through the second term, embraces the study of psychology, also the consideration of pure m~rality and po.sitive authority, the latter including civil government with the doctrme of the state, divine government, and family :government. . Logic.-Jevons-Hill's text-book is used. Special care is taken to enforce a practical application of logical formulas in the resolution of arguments, and the detection of sophistries. To this end illustrative ~xa~ples are drawn· from different authors and much oral instruction ls given. Pplitical Economy.-Instruction is given in Political Economy by means ~f text-books, lectures and conversational discussions. The .Stu~ent is required to be familiar with the leading principles of this subJect as presented by the author whose work is used as a text-book and is then 1mcouraged to study economical problems of the present time fro.m the historical and, so far as may be, absolutely impartial standpomt. DEPARTl'llENT OF ANCIENT LANGUAGES. ~· ~eps.!ltmen ts.~ The course of instruction embraces the following departments : I. Mental, Moral and Social Science-Including Metaphysics, Logic, Ethics, Natural and Revealed Religion and the Evidences of Christianity and Political EconomJ. II. Ancient Languages-Including the Latin and Greek Languages, Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman Literature. III. Modm·n Languages-Including the French and German Languages and Literature. · IV. Mathematics- -Including Pure Mathematics and Mechanics. V. Natural Science-Including Zoology, Botany, Physics, Chemistry and Astronomy. VI. History, English and Law-Including Ancient, Mediooval and Modern History, English Composition, Rhetoric and Elocution, History of the English Language and Literature, and International and Constitutional Law. VII. Mechanical Enginem·ing. VIII. Military Science and Tactics. Latin.-The study of Latin extends throughout the Classical and Latin Scientific Courses. . In the work of the Freshman year especial attention is given to the .structure of the Latin sentence, as illustrated in select portions of the writings .of Cicero, Livy, and Horace, and as unfolded through frequent written and oral exercises in Latin prose composition. But the c~i~f object. of th~ cour~e is the study of Latin literature, through a t]ntical readmg ofselect10ns from the most important authors in historical succession, viz., in the Sophomore year, Cicero, and the Cicer<>nian and Augustan poets ; and in the Junior and Senior years. Plautus, Quintilian, Tacitus, Persius and Juvenal. This reading i~ accompanied in the Junior year by a study of topics relating to the history of Latin literature. Gi·eek.-There will be five recitations a week in the Greek Com-se which w.m extend over three anc.l a-half years. The first year and a~half will be devoted to preparatory work, but the instruction will be given by the professor of Greek. The student will, as soon as he has 1?-astered the alphabet, read for the first term Phillpott's Easy Selec~10ns fro~ ~enophon, and in connecti~n with it will study, as he needs it, Goodwm s Greek Grammar. Durmg the second year of his preparatory course, he will complete the first four books of the Anabasis and will have daily exercises, both orally and at the blackboard in translating into Greek. Such a drill will be given upon every poin't of �'· I Circular of st. John's College. Circular.of St. John's College. Grammar that this subject will be thoroughly mastered, before t~e student enters the College course. During the Freshman year, six books of Homer will be read and Selections from Herodotus ~nd Thucydides. The Sophomore class will read the Apology, Cnto, Medea·, Oedipus Tyrannus, and the De Corona all of which will be completed. Lectures will be given in the Freshman aud So~homore classes upon Greek Mythology, Manners and Customs, and History of Greek Literature and Greek Art. DEPARTMENT OF NA.TlJRAL SCIENCE, 26 DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANCHJAGE~. Frencli.-During the first year, attention is given to conversation, the study of forms, the construction of sent~nces, "'.r~ting.French from dictation, acquiring a vocabulary, and readmg fam1har dialogues. During the second year, special attention is given to etymology, the history of the language, translations from English int? Fr_ench, and reading the classic poets. During the other terms the time is devoted to the history of the literature, the study of synonyms, and t~ ~x­ tended and rapid reading of the standard authors, and to compos1t10n in French. Italian and Spanish.-,.The study of these languages is entirely elective. · Uerman.-There will be three recitations per week in the German course, extending through the So~ho~ore, Junior an~ Senior ;year~. The class will commence at the begmnmg of the term to read Grunm s Hausma~rchen, Otis' Edition, and, in connection with it, will study as they need it, Whitney'~ German Grammar. The student will be required daily, both orally an<l at the blackboard, to translate from English into German. The first year will be giv~n to the Grammar and the Maerchen, of which one .hundred pages will be read. During the second year William Tell and Herrman and Dorothea will be completed. The third year will be given to Maid of Orleans and First Part of Faust, both of which will be completed, and to selections from Goethe's Prosa. Special attention will be given to speaking and writing German correctly. The recitations ~ill be cond'.1-cted in the second year as far as possible, and in the third year entirely, in the German lan'guage. Twelve lectures will be given during the course on the History of German Literature. ,, 1' I I: :; i :I DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS. ! ~ The required studies in Mathematics include Geometry, with problems and exercises in Geometrical invention ; Algebra, ~.lane and Spherical Trigonometry, with their application to problems 111 Surveying and Navigation, and Analytic Geometry. . . In the Junior year the study of the Calculus, and 111 the Senior y_ear of Applied Mechanics is pursued in the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses. . . . Elementary and Practical Astronomy is taught 111 the Semor year. ' 'i 27 The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make ii1struction in Physics and Chemistry a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions are from time to time made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratories and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. Some important changes having recently been made in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. 1. Zoology .-The study of Zoology will be pursued during the first term of the Freshman Year. The course consists of daily recitations from text-books upon classification and descriptions of Animal Kingdom. With this is combined practical work by the student in examining and qissecting a large number of typical species. The proximity of the College to the water affords special advantages for the study ·of marine forms of animal life. 2. Botany.-In this branch special attention will be given to systematic Botany, the work consisting of daily recitations from text-books, and the class making frequent excursions to the woods, so as to study the habitat of the various plants. Students will be required to analyze from 100 to 125 specimens, and are expected to become so familiar with the characteristics of twenty or more families, that they can recognize at sight. plants belonging thereto. In addition, the course will include elementary studies in Structural and Physiological ' Botany, the instruction in which will be largely by lectures. 3. Physics.-This subject is pursued for a year and a-half. The first term of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics, Dynamics, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, etc. ; also, of the subject of Sound. The second term of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term of the Junior Year to Electricity. '£he work consists of almost daily recitations from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by .more difficult experiments performed by the Professor. The class will be required, in the solution of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent application of the principles learned. 4. Ohemistry.-In this branch the second term of the Junior Year is devoted to General Chemistry, particularly of the non-metals, that the student may become familiar with the elementary gases and the methods of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagents. The whole of the Senior year is- devoted to analytical Chemistry. During the first term the student learns the action of ·each reagent on the bases and acids. This work is continued until the student becomes so familiar with their reactions that he can himself devise methods of separating them from each other. The remainder of the first term is then spent in the analysis of known material according to well arranged and easy methods. The course consists of daily work in the laboratory, together with daily recitations on the work of the �Ci1:cular of St. Jolin' s College. Circular of St. John's Colle,qe. day previous. · The student is early taught· to become familiar with the writing of reactions, and an important part of his recitations consists in the expressing, in chemical equations, of the relations previously described. During the second term the student is given unknown material containing from two to five bases with acids, and he is expected to have become so familiar with the methods of separation that he can follow the tables without text-boob, and usually, upon first report, name the elements contained in the substance analyzed, and by solubilities decide approximately what bases and acid are combined. During this term, also, special attention is paid to the writing of o~idation an~ reduction equations by a new method, whereby the pupil cannot fail to express any reaction, however difficult, when he knows the most important substances formed. Lectures in Organic Chemistry will also be given, so that the student may learn the simplest facts relating to this subject. The text-book is Prescott's smaller or larger Qualitative Analysis. The student is recommended to purchase the latter because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work here described. A course in Quantitative Analysis can be given to any student who may wish to pursue the study further. Each student is provided with a table together with all the common reagents and necessary apparatus. An account is kept of the reagents and apparatus thus provided, as well as of all returned by ~~ student at the end of the year, the charge being made as small as will suffice to cover expenses. The cost of these, including gas, has averaged from $5 to $6 per year to each student. Special attention is called to this fact as it is believed that no college in the land affords its students eq~al opportunities to become thoroughly acquainted with qualitative analysis at so small a cost. lish of Shakespeare will be made a special subject of study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on, which will be included in the critical study of some one of the plays of Shakespeare. International Law.-The work of a French or German author will be made the basis of an exposition of the principles qf International Law, while at the same time the acknowledged superiority of American and English authorities will be kept in view. The subject is taken up in the first term of the Senior year. _ao~stitutional ~aw.-The Senior Class will pursue the study of Constitut10nal Law m the second term. ·with the study of the present status of Constitutional Law, a constant reference to the reports of deci~ions in the more importa~t ~ases will serve to develop a familiarity with the processes of constitut10nal growth. Subjects involving constitutional questions will be assigned for the writing of essays. 28 DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, LIT· EBATURE AND LAW. I: In this department instructions will be givenIn Histm·y.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman history is believed to be the basis of all historical study, and these will first be cai·efully learned. This will be followed with a general outline of history, as contained in Myer's Manual of Mediooval and Modern History. . . In the English and .Anglo-Saxon Languages and their Litm·atwre.U nder this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation · this will be followed by a study of the historical grammar of the l~nguage. The history of English literature will then be taken up, and the lives of authors studied in connection with s~ecimens of their writings, which will be criticised in class. After this the Eng- 29 DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. The course in this Department will cover four years and consists of both theoretical and practical instruction. A work-shop has been opened, in which each engineering student is required to spend several hours per week. This shop will be enlarged as circumstances demand. · Each student has also several hours' practice per week in the Drawing-room; receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective isometrical and free-hand drawing. In connection with this br~nch during the Sophomore and Junior years, each student has one prob~ lem per week in Descriptive Geometry. These problems are made as practical as possible. The .Junior and Senior students have practice in ~esigning, and each one is required to make complete working drawings of at least one machine of his own design. The lectures in Design and Fabrication of Machinery, and in Contracts and Estimates, cover the Junior and Senior years, and are considered a very important part of the course. For outline of the course, arranged by years and terms, see pages 22 and 23. COURSE IN SHOPS ACCOMPANYING THE COURSE IN MECHANI· CAL ENGINEERING. Wood-Room.-Bench-Work; Wood-Turning.

Blacksmith-Sliop.-Bending; Welding; Tempering; Forging. The degree of ·M. E., (Mechanical Engineer), together with a diploma certifying to this effect, will be conferred at the Annual Commencement upon all graduates of this Department. ., I �30 Circular of St. Joltn' s Collt:gfl. POl!.'l'·GBADlJATE <:O"URl!iES. Post-Graduate courses extending through two years, and pursued at the College or elsewhere, are assigned by the Faculty to candidates for the Master's degree. Candidates far this degree are required to select at least two of the departments of study specified in this catalogue, and, under the direction of the professors of these departments, to pursue their studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications for this degree. Any graduate of the College who shall have been admitted a member of one of the learned professions, or who shall j:iave obtained a diploma from any Law, Medical, Theological or Scientific School, shall be entitled to the Master's degree three years after his graduation. The degree of Master is not conferred in course, but only on evidence of proficiency in advanced studies, as above indicated. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, <JOND"U<JT. Written e~aminations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, at the close of a year, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A ~tudent, deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A 1nerit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on. the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 3.0 on the recitations and on the examinations of the whole session. This average is arrived at by taking twice the recitation mark, adding thereto the examination mark and dividing the sum by 3, [Formula, 2 R -~~ == average mark. ] provided also, that the examination mark in that study be not less than 2. First and"second honors on Graduation Day are given to those students respectively, who shall obtain the highest and next highest average mark in all studies from the beginning of the Sophomore year. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for Circular of St. Joltn' s Colleg(j. 31 violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one·term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to ohey all the laws of the College so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution. All students are required to be p1·esent promptly on tlte opening day of tlte session, and no stu.dent will be permitted to leave tlte College wliile College exe1·cises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at tlte written 1·equest of !tis parent 01· giia1·dian. Tlte attention of parents and guardians is especially called to tltese regulations, and tltefr co-operation earnestly 1 ·equested. Tliey a·re also soUcited, on tlte occa.~ion of ltolidays, not to detain JJtudents at !tome beyond tlte time allotted fo1· suspension of College exercises. A student iohen absent is marked zero on all omitted recitations. Tltese ina1·ks will be subsequently erased by vote of tlte Faculty, p1·ovided tlte cause of ab.~ence is foitnd to be p1·otracted illness; in slw1·t absences (of a dcty 01· two), the student is allowed to make itp tlte omitted 1·ecitations only in case of actual sickness. Certificates of Di.~tinction of the .First and Second Grade are presented to those students in any. class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct, for the academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned ; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (2.5) in any one study for the academic year.

LIBRARY AND READING ROOU. 32 LITERARY SOCIETIES. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the library, and, by means of the regular library fund, s'.1bscriptions have been made to a number of American and ,~~reign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable. auxi~iary t(} the intellectual advancement of professors and students, its claims are commended to the alumni and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds will be gratefully acknowledged. There are now on the shelves about 6,000 volumes which are carefully classified and catalogued, thus forming an admirable working library for the student. Among these works are 480 bound volumes of American and English periodicals. Easy access to the contents of these works is furnished by Poole's Index of all subjects treated of in home and foreign magazines. The college library and reading-room is open every Saturd~y ~rom 9 to 12 a. m., for reading and taking out of books and per10dicals. The following magazines and reviews, furnishing all a student can reasonably need, are on file for 1887. Atlantic Monthly, Centur3:', Popular Science Monthly, Harper's Monthly, Nation, North American Review, Literary World, Forum, New Princeton Review, The Academ~, Harper's Young People, Saint Nicholas, American: Jo~rnal ~f P~1olO"Y Lippincott's Overland Monthly, Scribner, Educat10n, Scientific A;e;ican Americ~n Agriculturist, Andover Review, and the following British Reviews: Blackwood, Edinburgh, Westminister, Quarterly, Contemporary, Fortnightly, Macmillan, Nineteenth Century, and the Fliegende Blaetter. DEGREES. The following academic degrees are conferred by the College : There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before these societies, on the Tuesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. SOCIETY OF ALUMNI. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate education (whether graduates or not) at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are considered members of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in· the history of the State. PUBLIC WORSHIP AND RELIGIOUS 2. The degree of Bachelor of Letters, conferred in like manner. upon' graduates in the Latin-Scientific course, 3. The degree of Bachelor of Science, upon graduates in the Scientific course. 4. The <levee of Mechanical Engineer, upon graduates in the course of Mechanical Engineering._ 5. The1lfaster's degree, (whether of Ai·ts, Letters or Science), conferred after the completion of a Post-Graduate course, and upon the recommendation of th~ Faculty. IN~TRUCTION. The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scriptures and prayer in the College Hall. · It must not be assumed, because St.Joh n's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work. and government. On the contrary, every opportunity will be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The study of Christian Evidences is assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times, at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy of the several denominations of Annapolis by which students may enjoy the advantages of special instructio1i in the tenets of their respective churches. The Principal holds a Bible-Class every Sunday morning in the College Chapel from 9.45 to 10.30, A. M., to which all students of whatever denomination are invited. 1. The degree of Bacheloi· of Arts conferred after the satisfactory completion of the Classical course. 33 'l'ERMS AND "ACATIONS.

The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend from the last Thursday in June to the third Wednesday in: September, and from the 23rd of December to the first Monday in January, both inclusive. The 22nd of February, Good Friday and Easter Monday are holidays, as is also the clay of Public Thanksgiving appointed by the Governer of Maryland, or by the President of the United States. 3 ,, ,, �34 Circular of St. Jolin' s College. Circular of St. Jolin' s College. : v EXPENSES.

These amounts cover all the ordinary College expenses for boarders, except text-hooks, and must be invariably paid semi-annually in advance; that is, one-half at the opening of the first term in September. and one-half at the opening of the second term, on the 15th of February following. No deduction will be made, except for the p1·otracted cil>-. sence of a student caused by his sickness. ('O·OPERATIVE BOARDING. ' 11 ti, 11 ~ . ~I · 11 "-:--1 Students will be permitted to board in clubs or private families if desired. A club is simply an arrangement to divide the cost of table· board among its members. It is conducted on the co-operative principle. The club is managed by a commissary, who collects from its. members their shares of its monthly expenses, pays the bills and receives for his services a small monthly payment from each member of' the club. The system has worked well in other similar institutions, and enables the student members voluntarily to reduce and regulate the styleand cost of their board, if so disposed. The commissary is always iR such cases a student, and students work their way frequently through. colleges as commissaries. Facilities for the formation and management of such clubs will be afforded in the College buildings, and the club or clubs formed will be· under the immediate supervision of the Principal of the College, or of some one or more members of the Faculty designated by him. Under this system at the close of each month, an inventory will be taken, all accounts will be settled and the expenses will be divided among the members of the club. An auditing committee will be appointed each month by the club, to examine the books of the commissary, and to report to the club. The exact cost of board cannot be known, as market priees vary, and as rates will decrease as the number of students of the club increases, but members -of the Faculty who have had experience with the co-operative system at similar institutions are positive that under 35 this system, the total expenses for board, fuel, lights, compensation of its commissary, room cared for, and bed linen washed, will not average .more than $3.25 per week, or $130.00 for the college year of 40 weeks. It is, however, hoped to make the expense less t.han the above figures. 'Each member of the club must advance $10 at the commencement of •each month, and at its close must pay the balance due to his account. No account will be allowed to run into the following month. Pay1::nents in advance will enable the commissary to take advantage of wholesale cash rates. The total yearly expenses· of a student, exclu•sive of washing, may thus be reduced in the College classes to $205.00, in the 1st Preparatory department to $190.00, in the 2nd to $180.00 and i.n the 3rd to $170.00. If room furniture be supplied by the student himself, there will be no charge for room rent or furniture rent. If :room furniture be supplied by the college, a charge of six dollars per .annum for rent of room furniture will be charged, in which last case that amount should be added to the above rates. W ,ashing of clothes ·will not be for the present included in the co-operative system but will not exceed from $1.00 to $1.50 per month, or from $10.00 to $15.00 for the college year. Students lodging in the College buildings and boarding elsewhere, ln clubs or otherwise, are charged from $10 to $15 per annum for :room-rent. For charges paid by incumbents of Senatorial Scholarships, see ]_)age 36.

Wilful damage will be made the ground of additional charge, to be ·defrayed by the perpetrator. Students holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to lodge in the College Halls and board at the College Commons. Students not holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to provide themselves with furniture, including stove. Furniture may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. The boarding house will be closed during the Christmas and Sum.mer vacations. �37 Circular of St. Joltn's College. Circular of St. John's College. Disbursements will be made for personal expenses of students if funds shall be deposited by parents for this purpose, but no advances will be made by the College. Books will also be furnished to students,· provided a deposit of ten dollars be made for that purpose at the beginning of each term. At final settlement the unexpended balance, if any, will be refunded. ~ The Secretaries of the several School Boards are requested to communicate to the President of the College the names of those former incumbents of these scholarships who are now, or may hereafter be, employed in teaching in their respective counties or in the City of Baltimore. 36 COLLEGIATE 8CHOLABSH1P. STATE SCHOLABSHlP FOB BOABD AND TU1Tl01't". The General Assembly of the State (Acts of 1872, chapter 303, and chapter 315), has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing to the incumbent of one State Scholarship from each Senatorial District in the 8tate, to be appointed by the Board of School Corn.missioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective districts, lbftei· competitive examination. The laio requfres that the candidates slmll produce befo1·e the Boa1·d of School Commissionei·s satisfactory evidence of their moral clia1·acter, and of thefr inability or the inability of thefr pai·ents 01· guardians, to pcby the 1·egulcb1· College chM·ges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded"to the Secretaries of the several School Boards for the use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the College for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To obtain a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College. The Boards of School Commissioners are ea1·nestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The Faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one year in case of worthy students. 187~, The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide their own text-books, and to pay into the treasury of the College, at the beginning of each term, the sum of $37.50, from which no deductions will be made for absence. There are known to be at this date (June 10, 1887), two vacancies in these scholarships, viz : one each from the counties of Frederick and Washington. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint those candidates who are not less than sixteen years of age, and are most advanced in their studies. It is desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of scholarships in connection with the College : For a permanent scholarship for tuition, $1,200. For a permanent scholarship for board and tuition, $4,000. For a scholarship for the tuition of a student through all the College classes, $300. For a scholarship for the board and tuition of a student through all the College classes, $1,000. For· any other scholarships the sum reduced shall be in the same proportion, the money in each case to be paid in advance into the treasury of the College. · The establishment of these scholarships is· commended to the attention of the alumni and friends of the College. i: I' �n !

But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of 'the oldest collegEis in the country;· At the City of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the Upper Houie of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and -erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the Act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIA.M's ScHooL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesman, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a· national f!tme. KING 'VILLIA111's ScHooL waB, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been .connected with the State of Maryland from the early. times of. colonial histQry. Francis Scott :key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are .among its alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent could be mentione.d. ·The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the :Severn River, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the . country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college -, green is spacious, amply shaded, and most·at.tractive to the eye, whil~ the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch .of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a c.ollege. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adopted for purposes of both classical and technical educatiqn, .and could accommodate two hundred studen~s. Annapolis has railroa\f communication ..with Baltimore and Washiii'.gton several times a day, daily' .stea:i;nboat c~:mnection .with, the former city, and telegraphic corinection with ev~ry part of t]J.e country. COURSES OF STUDY. The.Preparatory Departmenj; of the College ha1:1 three Classes, .entitled .first, second and third, according t6 grade of studies.

'od'l~_LO~C'lCO ·---~------ It will be seen that in the Classical course. the study of Mathematics is discontinued after the Sophomore year, at which point the study Qf the Sciences begins. The Classical student will thus devote two years to scientific study, the particular branches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Scientific course. taking no Greek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at th~ end of the 8ophomore year, enjoys .a fuller course in English, and begins the study of Science earlier than the Classical student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering -courses, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission), four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics and Chemistry, and to Mathematics. Also, in the Seientific -course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German is required for every degree. No ~tudent will be permitted to dii;continue any study, except at the dose of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students pursuing a Select Course inay enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of their Faculty. -»k:lepailtments.~ The course of instruction embraces the following departmei1ts : I.

The student will be required daily, both orally and at the blackboard, to translate from English into German. The first year will be given to the Grammar· a:.id the Maerchen, of which one hundred pages will be read. During the second year William Tell and Herrman and Dorothea will be completed. The third year will be given to Maid of Orleans. and First Part of Faust, both of which will be completed, and to selections from Goethe's Pross. Special attention will be given to speaking and writing German correctly. The recitations will be conducted in the second year, as far as possible, and in the third ye11.r entirely, in the German languR.ge. Twelve lectures will be given during thecourse on the History of German Literature. DEPARTMENT OF JIA.THEJllATH 8. The required studies in Mathematics include Geometry, wtth problems• and exercises in Geometrical invention; Algebra, Plane and Spherical Trigonometry, with tb.'eir~pplicati~n to.problem.sin Survey-· ing and Navigation, and Analytic Geometry. ln the Junior year the study of the Calculus, and in the Senior yearof Applied Mechanics is pursued in the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses. , Elementary and Practical Astronomy is taught in the Senior year. DEPAKT1'1E:\''r OF NATCBAL SCJJENCE. The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to makeinstruction in Physics and Chemistry a prominent part of the Col- 11· �28 Circular of St. John's College. legia~e course. Additions are from time to time made to the philo;soplncal apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratories and· 'Cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any \ '()f the branches of this department will be thankfully received. Some important._ changes having recently been made in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. 1. Zoology.-The study of Zoology will be pursued during the first term ·of the Freshmari Year. The course consists of daily recitations from te~t-boo~s .upon classification and descriptions of Animal Kingdom. With ~his ~s combined practical work by the student in examining .and dissecting a large number of typical species. The proximity of the College to the water affords spedal advantages for the study of marine forms of animal life. 2.. Botany.-In this branch special attention will be given to systematic Botany, the work consisting of daily recitations from text-books .and the.class-making f~equent excursions to the woods, so as to stud; the habitat of the various plants. Students will be required to analyze from 100 to 1·25 specimens, and are expected to become so familiar with the characteristics of twenty or more famiUes, that they can recognize at sight plants belonging thereto. In addition, the ·course will include elementary studies in Structural and Physiologi~al . Botany; the instruction in which will be largely by lectures. 3. Physics.-This subject is pursued for a year and a-half. The first term of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics, Dynamics, Hydrostatics, Pn<>umatics, etc.; also, of the subject of Sound. The second term of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term· of the Junior Year to Electricity. The work consists of almost daily recitations from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult experiments performed by the Professor. The class will be required in the solution of a large number of practical problems, to make fre: •quent application of the principles leamed. · 4. Chemistry.-In this branch the second term of the .Tuni~r year is devoted to General Chemistry, particularly of the non-metals, that the student may become familiar with the elementary gases and the methods of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagents. · T~e whole of the Senior year is devoted to analytical Chemistry .. Durrng the first term the student learns the action of each reagent on the bases and acids. This work is continued until the student be·conies. so familiar with their reactions that he can himself devise methods of separating them from each other. The remainder of the first term is then spent in the analysis of knoV1;1l material according to :vell arranged and easy methods. The course consists of d.aily w~rk 111 the laboratory, together with daily recitations on the work of the day -rrevious. The· student is early taught to become familiar ;ith the writing of reactions, and an important part of his recitations consists· in the expresssing, in chemical equations, of the relfttions pre-viollsly described. Circular of St. John'.<; College. 29 During the second term the student is given un~nown material containing from two to five bases with acids, and h~ is. expected to have become so familiar with the methods of separat10n ~.hat he can follow the tables without text-books, and usually, upon first report, :0-~1:°e the elements contained in the substance analyzed, ~nd by sol~b1ht1~s decid.e approximately what bases and acids ar~ ?ombme~. ~urmg this t erm also ' special attention, is paid: to tP,e wptm,ghof oxidation .and fre·. .. ·1 . t ·1 duction e_quations by a new metho?, whereby t e pup1 · canno a1 to express any reaction, however difficult, when h~ knows .the mo.st important substances formed. Lectures in Orgam.c Chemistry will also be given, so that the student may learn th; simplest facts relating to this subject. The text-book is Prescott s smaller or l!J,rger Qualitatiye Analysis. The student is reco.mmended to purchase the latter because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work l1ere described. , A cours~ in Quantitative Analysis cah be given to any student who may wish to pursue the study further. ' · Each student is provided with a table together with all the common reagents and necessary apparatus. ,An account is kept of the reagents and apparatus thus provided, as well as of all returned by the· student at the· end. of the year, th.e charge being made as small as will su!fice to cover expenses. The cost of these, including gas, has averaged from $5 to.$6 per year to each student. Special attention is called to this fact, as it is believed that no college in the .Jan? afford~ its st~­ dents equal opportunities to become thoroughly acquamted with qualitative analysis at so small a cost. DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, THE ENGL:tSH LANGUAGE, LIT· , Jo:HATUHE AND':LAW. In this department imtructions will be givenIn History.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman Histo:y is believed to be the basis of all historical study, and these will first be carefully learned. This will be followed with a general outline of history, as contained in Myers' Manual of Mediooval and Modern H~ry. . . In the English and Anglo-Saxon Languages and the1.r L1~erature.Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation· this will be followed by a study of the historical grammar of the language. The history of English literatur.e wil~ then ?e taken ·up and the lives of authors studied in connect10n with specimens of th~ir writings, which will be criticised in class. After this the English of Shakespeare will be made a special subject of study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on, which will be included in the criticai study of some one of the plays of Shakespeare. International Law .-The work of a French or German author will be made the basis of an exposition of ·the principles of International '' 11 1 �-30 Circular of St. John's Co.llef!e. Circular of St. John's College. Law, whil~ at. the same time the acknowledged superiority of Ameri-can and ~nghsh authorities will be kept in view. The subject ie taken up m the first term of the Senior year. t"~o;stit~tional Law ....-.The Senior Class will pursue the study of Con. :t: u IOna La~ m_ the seoond term. With the study of the. present · . :us 0~ Constitut10nal Law; a constant reference to· the reports of de~I~IOns m the more important cases will serve to develop a familiarit W~th _the proces~es of _constitutional growth.

Heis also taught the practical use of the transit and level . in the field, and studies land surveying, the laying off and dividing up , of land and caloulating the contents. The text-book use!! is Davies' Surveying (Van Amrige.) EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CON"DlJCT. Written examinations on the studies of the entire tei·m are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations to 'make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, at the close Qf a year, shall evince an incapacity on his :part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered-to him, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A F.tudent, deficient in knowledge,. or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 3.0 on the recitations and on the examinations of the whole session. This average is arrived at by taking twice the. recitation mark, adding thereto the examination mark and dividing the sum by 3, f . LFormula, 2R--' E --~- = l average mark. J provided also, that the examination mark in that study be not Iese than 2. First and second honors on Graduation Day are given to those students respectively, who shall obtain the highest and next highest average mark in all studies from the beginning of the Sophomore year. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for violations of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demeritB for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the Colleg~ _so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer c:heerfully comply with college mles he will be required to leave the institution. All students are required to be p1'€sent promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while College exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of. his parent. or guardian. The attention of parents an~ guardians is especially called to these regula- �32 Circular of S!. John's College.

They are also solicited, 011 the occasion of holidays, not to detain students at home beybnd the time allotted for suspension of College exercises. A student when absent is marked zero o.n all omitted recitations. These m·arks will be subs~quently erased by vote of the Faculty, provided the cause of absence is found to be protracted illness ; in short ab· sences (of a day or two), the student is allowed to make up the omitted recitations only in case of actual sickness. Certificates of Distinction of the First an,d Second Grade are presented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct, for the academic year. . / Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned ; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (3) in any one study for the academic year. 9 to 12 ·a. m., for reading and taki.ng out of books and periodicals.

There are two Literary Societiee (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students; "'hich afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before the societies, on the vVednesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. INSPEVTIUN UF DORMITORIES. SOCIE1'Y OF A.LUI£,\'./, An inspection of every room is made daily in the morning before breakfast by the Superintendent of the halls, at which time the rooms must be open and the students dressed. The rooms of students are also inspected by the superintendents at the commencement of study hours, and are liable to official visitation by any member of the Faculty, or the OfficerR of the Day, at any hour. A final inspection is taken at 10.30 p. m., when students are required to retire and to be in their rooms for that purpose 2 minutes after "taps," (10.25). All lights in the Dormitorles must be extinguished at 10.30. .. PUBLIC JJ'OllSHIJ:' A.ND RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION. LIBRARY AND READihG ROOM. Through the liberalit3· of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the library, and, by means of. the regular library fund, subscriptions have been made to, a number of American and. Foreign · periodical. A complete library be_ing an indispensable auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors and students, its claims are commended to the alumni and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds will be gratefully acknowledged. There are now on the shelves about 6,000 volumes which are carefully classified and catalogued, thus forming an admirable working library for the student. Among these works are 480 bound volumes of American and English periodicals. Easy access to the contents of these works·is furnished by Poole's Index of all subjects treated of in home and foreign magazines. The college library and reading room is open every Saturday from The Society of Alumni hold<i its annual meetings on the day preceding Com)llencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate education (whether graduates or not) at St. J~hn's _College, and left in good standing, are conside~ed me_mbers o~ this society. It. numbers on its roll many names promment m the history of the State. ~ . The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scriptures and prayer in the College Hall. It Jll'ist not be assumed, because St. John's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work and government. On the cOJ,trary, every opportunity ·will be offered for t_he_ full es~ develo~­ ment of the Christian character. The study of ~hnstian Ev1dences1s assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All stu?ents are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times, at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy the several denominations of Annapolis by which students may e;nJoy the advantages of special instruction in the tenets of their respective churches.. I The Principal holds a Bible-Class every Sunday morning in the College Chapel from 9.45 to 10.30, A. lVI., to which all students of whatever denominatio11 are invited. o! TERMS AND jrA.CATIONS.

CO-OPERATIVE BOARD1.NG. A co-operative boarding club was organized at the beginning of Ses.sion 1887-'88 for the purpo!;!e of placing the advantages of the College within the reach of students of limited me11:ns. It has been carried -on successfully during the year under the dlrection of Prof. Reid, <Subject to the supervision of the Principal of the College. It now numbers twenty-four members. The club is managed by a commissary, who collects from its members �36 Circular of St. Joltn's College. Circular of St. Jull!n's College. their shares of it" monthly expenses, pays the bills and receives for· his services a small payment from each membn of the club.· Thll commissary i~ always in such cases a student, and students. work their way frequently through colleges as commissaries. Under this system at the close of each month, an inventory is taken, all accounts are settled anq the expenses are divided among the members of the club. An auditing committee is then appointed each month by the club, to examine the books of the commissary, and to. report to the club. . ·Each member must advance $12.00 at the commencement of each. month, and at the close must pRy the balance due, as no deficit is. allowed to run into thP. following month. Payment in advance enables the club to take advantage of wholesale cash rates. During the past year the total expenses of the members of the clul> for board, fuel, lights, compensation of commissary and care of rooms have varied from $2.72 per week in October to $3.68 per week in January. The average cost has been $3.22 per week.

The charge of the gymnasium has been place<] in the hands of tpe Athletic Association, whose duty it is to keep the apparatus in repair, and to buy new as needed. It is necessary therefore, for students desiring to avail themselves of the benefits of the gymnasium to subscribe the fee of $1.00 each term to the Athletic Association. By the aid of members of the Board of Visitors, the Alumni, and by contributions' of the Athletic Association, very many improvements have been recently made in the ~ymnasium.

THE The charter of St. John's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest Colleges in the countr;v. At the City of :St. Mary's, then the capital of .Maryland, as early as 1671, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and €recting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the Act of 1696, establishing KING W1LLlAM's ScROOL, which was opened in 1701. He~e were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was Willliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WILJ,lAM's ScHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni, and . many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn River, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college greeµ is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordering . the· grQj:Inds, "College Creek,'' a branch of the Severn, affords every facilitY for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage ··desirable for a college. The buildings are large, . commodious, and well adapted .for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has Railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington several times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, arid tele1vaphic connection with every part of the country. 1 I J .1 COURSES OF STUDY, The Preparatory Department of the College has three classes, entitled first, second and third, according to grade of studies. Students �16 Circular of St. John's Oollege. Oircmar of St. Jolin's College. of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination. are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. For scheme of studies see page 18. The Collegiate Department embraces four courses for undergraduates. each 'occupyj.ng four years; viz : 1. The Classical, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts; 2. The Latin-Scientific, leading to tqe degree of Bachelor of Letters; 3. Tha Scientific, leading to the degree of Bachelor_ of Science; 4. The Mechanical Engineering course, leading to the degree of Mechanical Engineer. The scheme of studies in the different courses, arranged, for the sake of comparison, in parallel columns, will be found on pages 23 and 24. In "order to obtain one of the above-mentioned degrees, a student must have completed satisfactorily the course as herein laid down ; but for such as ma,y not be studying for a degree, select courses· will be arranged according to the opt.ion of parents and guardians, subject to the approval of the Faculty. On the successful completion of such special courses certificates will be given. Post-graduate .courses are arranged for those graduates who wish to become candidates for the Master's degree. TIME ANO TERMS OF ADMISSION. The regular examinations for admi-sion into the College or the Preparatory Department are held on the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year, and candidates for admission are requested to be present, if possible, on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each applicant, those of former teachers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Dr partment, sustain an examination in the following studies : English Grammar and Composition, (including Punctuation); U. s. History, Hi3tory of England; Geography; Physical Geography; Physiology; .Arithmetic, Algebra through Quadratic Equations,especially Factoring and Fractions ; Had.ley's, Goodwin's or Kubner's Greek G1·ammar; Xenophon's Anabasis, (one boqk); Harkness', Gi!dersleeve;s or Allen and Greenoulol"h's Latin Grammar; Coosa.r's Commentaries, (four books); Ov;id, (fifteen hundred lines); Virgil, (two books of the 2Eneid); Latin and Greek Composition. Candidates for other degrees must pass the same examination, except in Greek. · _ Candidates for admission to any higher class must be examined in all the previous studies of the class they enter. Candidates for admission into the lowest class of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education. They will be examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. The course of study in the Classics and Mathematics in the Preparatory and lower collegiate classes has been arranged in accordance with the requirements of the examination for matriculation in the Johns•· Hopkins University. I 17 . A student who may have advanced through the Sophomore Class is entitled to matriculate at Johns' Hopkins University without undergoing any examination, He is also permitted to enter the second year'·s course-at the University if he can pass satisfactorily a test examination. And a graduate of B. A. from this College may. proceed for the degree of Ph.D. from the University, with a course of three years only in Baltimore. DEGREES.

It will be seen that in the Classical course, the study of Mathematics is discontinued after the first term of the Junior year, at which point the study of the Sciences begins. The Classical student will thus devote some time to Scientific study, the particular branches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Scientific course, taking no Greek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at the end of the Junior year, enjoys a fuller course of English, and begins the study of Science earlier than the Classical Student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission,) four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics, Chemistry, and to Mathematics. Also, in the Scientific course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German is required for I ~ every degree. No student will be permitted to discontinue' any study, eicept at the 'the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. :l l' -»- k)epa11tments. *- The course of instruGtion embraces the following departments : , I. Mental, Moral and Social Science.-Including Metaphysics, Logic, '"Ethics, Natural and Revealed Religion and the Evidences of Christianity and Political Economy. II.

DEPARTMENT OF A~«::I.Ell'l' L41WG1JAGES. Latin.-The study of Latin extenda throughout the Classical and Latin Scientific Courses.. In the work of the Freshman year especial attention is given to the structure of the Latin sentence, as illustra~ed in select portions of thewritings of Cicero, Livy, and Horace, and ii.a unfolded through frequent written and oral exercises 'in Latin prose composition. But thechief object of the course is the study of Latin ·literature, through a critical reading of selections from the most important authors in historical succession, viz., in the Sophomore year, Cicero, and the Ciceronian anrl .Augustan poets; and in 1the Junior and Senior years, Plautus, Quintilian, Tacitus, Persius and Juvenal. This reading is accompanied in the Junior year by a study of topics relating to the history of Latin literature. Greek.-There will be four recitations a week in the Greek Course which will extend over four years. The first year will be devoted t<> preparatory work, but the instruction will be given by the professorof Greek. The student will, as soon as he has mastered the alphabet, read for the first year Phillpott's Easy Selections from Xenophon, and in connection with it will study, as he needs it, Goodwin's Greek Grammar. During the second year of his preparatory course, he will complete the first four books of the Anabasis and will have daily:exercises, both orally and at the blackboard, in transfating into Greek. Such a drill will be given upon every point of Grammar that this subject will be ·thoroughly ·mastered, before the ·student finishes the Anabasis. During the Sophomore year, six books of Homer will be read and Selections from Herodotus. arid Thucydides. The Jnniorclass will read the Apology, Crito, Medea, and three Philippics of Demosthenes, all of which will be completed. Lectures will be given.

Additions are from time to time made to the philo- Some important changes having recently been made in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. 1. Zoology .-The study of Zoology will be pursued during the first term <>f the Freshman Year. The course consists of daily recitations from "te~t-boo~s .upon classification and descriptions of Animal Kingdom. With .this ~s combined practical work by the student in examining al¢. d1ssectmg a large number of typical specieR. The proximity of the .College to. the water affords special advantages for the· study of marine forms of animal life. . 2.. Bot~~Y·-:In this ~ranc~. special attention will be given to systematic Botany the work consisting of daily recitations from text-books and the.class making f~equent excursions to the woods so as to stud; the habitat of the various plants. Students will be required to analy~~ fro~ 100 to 125 specimens and are expected to become so fa. m1liar with. the cha~acteristics of twenty or more families, that they -can reco~n~ze at sight plants belonging thereto. In addition, the course w1ll 1~clude e!em~ntary studies in Structural and Physiological Botany, t?e mstruct1on m which will be largely by lectures. 3. Phyaill8.-This subject is pursued for a year and a-half. The first term of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics. Dy namics, Hydrostatics, PnP-umatics, etc.; also of the subject of S~und~ The second term. of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first te~m of ~he.Jumor Year to ElectricitJ. The work consists of almost dally ~ec1tations from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult ~xperiment~ performed by the Professor. The class will be required, m the solu.tio~ of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent application of the principles learned. T~e whole of the Senior year is devoted to Analytical Chemistry. Durmg the first t~rm the ~tudent learns the action of each reagent on the bases and ;~c1ds .. This ~ork ·is continued until the student becomes so familiar .with their reactions that he can himself devise methqds of separatmg them from each other. The remainder of the first term is then spent in the analysis of known material according to :wen arranged and easy methods. The course consists of daily work m the la?oratory, together with daily recitations on the work of the day pr~~ious. The. student is early taught to become familiar with t?e w.ritmg of reactions, and an important part of his recitations consi~ts m t~~ ~xpresssing, in chemical equations, of the relations previously desi;:nbed. 29' During the second term the student is given unknown material containing from two to five bases with acids, and he is expected to have become so familiar with the methods of separation, that he can follow the tables without text-books, and usually, upon first report name the elements contained in the substance analyzed, and by solubilities. ·decid~ approximately what bases and acids are combined. During this term also special attention is paid to the writing of oxidation and reduction equations by a new method, whereby the pupil cannot fail to express any reaction however difficult, when he knows the most important substances formed. Lectures in Organic Chemistry will . also be given, so that the student may learn the simplest facts relating to this subject. The te.xt-book is Prescott's smaller or largerQualitative Analysis. The student is recommended to purchase the latter because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work here described. A course in Quantitative Analysis can be given to any student wh<> may wish' to pursue the study further. Each student is provided with a tab!e, together with all the common reagents an.d necessary apparatus. An account is kept of the reagents. and apparatus thus provided, as well as of all returned by the student at tr: e end of the year, the charge being made as small as will suffice to cover expenses. The cost of these, includ~ng gas has averaged from $5 to $6 per year to each student. Special attention is called to. this fact, as it is believed that 1,1.0 college in the land Rffords its students equal opportunities to become thoroughly acquainted with quali. tative analysis at so small a cost. :sop~1cal apparatus and every effort used to make the laboratories and -cabmet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustr~tion of any of the b~anches of this department will be thankfully received. . 4. 0Mm.iatry.-In this branch the second term of the .Junior year is devoted to General Chemistry. particularly of the non-metals that the student may become familiar with the elementary gases a~d the methods of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagents. . i DEPARTJllE:'VT OF HIS'l'ORV, THE ENGLISH LANGl'AGE, LITERA.TURE A.ND LAW. .

This will be followed with a general outline of history as contained in Myers' Man~al of Medireval and Modern History . In the Engliah and Anglo-Saxon Language and their Literature.Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation ; this will be followed by a study of the historical grammar of the language. The h~story of English literature will then be taken . up, and the lives of authors studied in connection with specimens of their writings which will be criticised in class .. After this, the Eng-. lish of Shakespeare will be made a special subject of study, and the· most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern Englilih noted and c0Ir1mented o~, which will be included in the : critic'ill study of some one of the plays of Shakespeare, · In.Urnatwnal Law.~The work pf a French or German author will be mad11 the basis of an exposition of the principles of International I JI I ,11 ! �~o Circular of st.

The subject is :taken up in the first term onhe Senior year. Constitutional Law.-The Senior Class will pursue the study of Con· ·stitutional Law in the second term. ·with the study of the present ·status of Constitutional Law, a constant reference to the reports of de·cisions in the more important cases will serve to develope a familiarity with the process of constitutional growth. Subjects involving con· stitutional questions will be assigned for the writing of essays. DEPABTME.N'I' OF JIJECHANI<JAl. E~GINEERll"G. The course in this Department will cover four years and consist of both ,theoretical and practical instruction. A work-shop has been' opened, in which each engineering student is required to spend several hours per week. This shop will be enlarged as circumstances de.mand. Each student also has several hours' practice per week in the Drawing-room, receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective, iso.metrical and free-hand drawing. In connection with this branch, during the Sophomore and Junior yPars, each Student has one prob· 1em per week in Descriptive Geometry. Theqe problems are made as practical as possible.' The Junior and Senior students bav" practice in designing, and each one is required to make complete working draw:ings of at lea:st one machine of his own desigr•. The lectures in Design and Fabrication of Machinery, and in Contracts and Estimates, cover the Junior and Senior years, and are con· sidered a very important part of the course.

Instruction in this Department is both rractical and theoretical, The student is required in the recitation room to solve 1·r0blems relat· ing to the location of simple and compound railroad curves, and is Oircular of St. J,ohn's College. 31 taught. the application of the primoidal formula to the calculation of earthworks. He is also taught the practical use of the transit and level in the field, and studies land surveying, the laying off and dividing up of land and calculating the contents. The text-book used is Davies' ,surveying (Van Amrige.) EX&llllNATIONS, REPORTS, CONDU()T, Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks of these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations, to .make up the student's atanding for. the term. Any student, whose examinations at the close of a year shall evince an in~pacity on his part, to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, arid, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. · A student, deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable ·to be reduced to a lower class in that study, A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a highe:r class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 3.0 on the recitations and on .the examinations of the whole session. This average is arrived at by taking twice the recitation mark, adding thereto the examination :mark and dividing the sum by 3. f · [ Formula, 2RIE · -J -= average mark. ]] rrovided also, that the ·examination mark in that study be not less than 2.

Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned ; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (3) in any one study for the academic year. Ll'f'ERA RY !iiO('IETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before the societies, on the 'Vednesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. SOCIETY OF &LUMNJ. Illl'SPEC'rION OF DO Rllll:l'ORIES. The Society of Alumni hold~ its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasio.n an oration is delivered by one of its members. .All former students who have completed theiJ: collegiate education (whether graduate!' or not) at St. John's Col• lege, and left in good standing, are considered members of this society. It. numbers on its roll many names prominent. in the history of the State. An inspection of every room is made daily in the morning before breakfast by the Superintendent of the balls, at which time the rooms must be open and the students dressed. The rooms of students are also inspected by the Superintendents at. the commencement of study hours, and are liable to official visitation by any member of the Faculty, or the OfficerR of the Day, at any hour. A final inspection is taken at 10.30 p. m., when students are required to retire and to be in their rooms for that purpose 2 minutes after "taps,'' (10.25). All lights in the Dormitories must be extinguished at 10.30. PUBLIC WORSHIP AND RELIG JOUN IN~TRUC'I'ION. The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scriptures and prayer in the College Hall. It must not be assumed, because St.. John's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work and i!OVernment. On the conl.rary, every opportunity wm be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The Htudy of Christian Evidences is assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times, at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy of the several denom· inations of .<\.tmapolis, by which students may enjoy the advantages of special instruction in the tenets of their respective _churches. The Principal holds a Bible-Class every Sunday morning in the College Chapel from 9.45 to 10.30, A. M., to which all students of whatever denominatio.11 are invited. LIBRARY AND RE"'DUIG ROOJI. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations. from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions h11ve bee.n made to the library, and, by means of the regular library fund, subscriptions have been. made to a number of American_ and Foreign periodicalR. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to. the intellectual advancement ·of professors and students, its claims are commended to the alumni and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds will be gratefully acknowledged. There are now on the shelves about 6,000 volumes which are carefully classified and catalogued, thus forming. an admirable worki.ng library for the student. Among these works are 480 bound volumes of American and English periodicals. Easy access to the contents of these works is furnished by Poole's Index of all subjects treated of in home and foreign magazines. The College library and reading room is open every Saturday from 33 TERMS ' AND .VACATIONS . . The Annual Comme ncenient of. the College takes place on the last Thursday ill J1µi!i.

BOARDJNG. The two College dormitories, Pinkney arid Humphreys Halls, as well 38 the recitation building, McDowell Hall, have been provided each with a separate steam heating apparatus of the most approved sort. These were thoroughly tested during the severe weather of the two past winters and found entirely satisfactory. The lodging rooms have also been recently renovated, papered and painted, and other improvements made conducing tO 'the health and· comfort of students. Students may board in the College boarding house known as the College Commons, in private families or in clubs, but are'not allowed to Board at, or frequent Hotels or other public houses where intoxicating liquors are sold.

The charter of St. John's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore one of the oldest Colleges in the country. At the City of St. Mary'~, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followetl by the Act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryfand-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was Willliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WtLLlAM's SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's Coilege, which has thus been connected with the State of ' Maryland from the early tim·es ·of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are aIDong its alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn River, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college green i,s spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, w~ile the c~mpus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordermg the grounds, "Colleg" Creek," a branch of the Se>ern, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has Railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington several times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. COURSES OF STUDY. The Preparatory Department of the College has three classes, entitled first, se'cond and third, according to gmde of studies.

It will be seen that in the classical course, the study of Mathematics is discontinued after the first term of the Junior year, at which point the study of the sciences begins. The classical student will thus de· vote some time to sr.ientific study, the particular brnnches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Scientific Course, taking noGreek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at the end of the Junior year, enjoys a fuller course of English, and begins the study of science earlier than the classical student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering courses, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission,) four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics, Chemistry, llnd to ~1athematics. Also, inc the Scientific course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German is required for every degrne. No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the close of a term, and theu only at th:, icritten request of his parent or guardian. Students pursuing a select course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. --- \. -~ ~·:o: ;-,,:=~--- Bepa11tments ..~- The course of instruction embraces the following departments : I.

To this end illustrative ·examples are drawn from different authors and much oral instruction .is given. Political Econorny.-Instruction is given in Political Economy by 1means of text books, lectures and conversational discussion!'. The student is required to be familiar with the leading principles of thi'l .subject as presented by the author whose work is used as a text book, .and is then encouraged to study economical problems of the present time from the historical, and. so far as may be, absolutely impartial standpoint. ,I !

Latin.-The study of Latin extends throughout the classical and Latin Scientific courses. In the work' of the Freshman year special attention is given to the structure of the Latin sentence, as illustrated in select·portions of the writings of Cicero, Livy, and Horace, and as unfolded through fre·quent written and oral exercises in Latin prose composition. But the ·chief object of the course is the study of Latin literature, through a ·critical reading of selections from the most important authors in historical succession, viz., in the E'ophomore year, Cicero, and the Ciceronian and Augustan poets; and in the Junior and Senior years, Plautus, ·Quintilian, Tacitus, Persius and Juvenal. This reading is accompanied in the Junior year by a study of topics relating to the history ·Of Latin literature. G1'eek.-There will be four recitations a week in the Greek course which will extend over three years. During Freshman year the student will compll:lte the first four books of the Anabasis and will have daily ·exercises, both orally and at the blackboard, in translating into Greek. Such a drill will be given upon every point of Grammar.that ·this subject will be thoroughly mastered, before he finishes the Anabasis. During the Sophomore year, six books of Homer will be read and selections from Herodotus and Thucydides. The Junior class will read the Apology, Crito. Medea, and three Philippics of Demostheues, .all of which will be completed. Lectures will be given in the Freshman and Sophomore classes upon Greek Mythology, Manners aud ·Customs, and History of Greek Literature and Greek Art.

Additions are from time to time made to the philo.sophical apparatus and every effort. used to make the laboratories and cabinet as complete as po8sible. Contributions for illustration of any ·of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. Some important changes having recently been made in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. 1. Zoology.-The study of Zoology will be pursued during the first -term of the Freshman year. The course consists of daily recitations from text-books upon classification and descriptions of Animal Kingdom. With this is combined practical work by the student in examining and dissecting a large number of typical species. '.I'he proximity -of the College to the water afford~ special advantages for the study of .marine forms of anh1al life. 2. Botany.-In this branch special attention will be given to systematic Botany, the work consisting of daily recitations from text-books, .and the class making frequent excursions to the woods so as to study ihe habitat of the various plants. Students will be required to ana.lyze from 100 to 125 specimeps and are expected to become so familiar with the characteristics of twenty or more families, that they can rec·ognize at sight plants helonging thereto. In addition, the course will include elementary studies in Structural and Physiological Botany, the instruction in which will be largely by lectures. 3. Physics.-This subject is pursued for a year and a-half. The first -term of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics, Dyna.micF, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, etc.; also of the subject of Sound. The second term of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term .0 f the Junior year to Electricity. The work consii;ts of almost daily recitations from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult experiments performed by the Professor. The class will be required, in the solution of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent application of tile principles learned. 4. Ohemisti·y.-In this branch the second term of the Junior year is devoted to general Chemistry, particularly of the non-metals, that-the student may become familiar with the elementary gases and the meth·O<ls of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagent!'!, . The whole of the Senior year is devoted to .Analytical Chi>mistry. During the first term the student learns the action of each reagent on the bases and a~ids. This work is continued until the .student be·comes so familiar with their reactions that he himself can devise methods of separating t4em from each other. The remainder of the first term is then spent in the analysis of known material according to well arranged and easy methods. The course consists of daily work in the laboratory, together with daily recitations on the work of the day previous. The student is early taught to become familiar with the writing of reactions, and an important part of his recitations con.-sists in the expressing, in chemical equations, of the relations pre·viously described. O'ircular of St. John's College. 31 During the second term, the student is given unknown material con • taining from two to five bases with acids, and he is expected to have become so familiar witl: the methods of separation, that he can follow the tables without text-books, and usually, upon first report name the elements contained in the substance analyzed, and by solubilities decide approximately what bases and acids are combined. During this term also special attention is paid to the writing of oxidation and reduction eq11ations by a new method, whereby the pupil cannot fail 'to express a11y reaction however difficult, when he knows the most mportant subfltances formed. Lectures in Organic Chemistry will .also be given, so that the student may learn the simplest facts relating to this subject. The text-book is Prescott''! smaller or larger ·Qualitative Analysis. The student is recommended to purchase the latter because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work here described. A course in Quantitative Analysis can be given to any student who may wish to pursue the study further. Each student is provided with a table, together with all the common reagents and necessary apparatus. An account is kept of the reagents .and apnaratus thus provided, as well as of all returned by the student at the ~nd of the year, the charge being made as Emall as will suffice to cover expenses. The cost of these, including gas, has averaged from $5 to $6 per year to each student. Special attention is called to this fact, as it is believed that no college in the land affords its students equal opportunities to become thoroughly acquainted with qualitative analysis at so small a ·cost. DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, THE ENGLISH LANGlJAGE, LIT· ERAT[;RE A.ND J..'°"W. In this department instruction will be givenIn Histoi·y.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman History, is believed to be the basis of all historicftl study,, and these will -first be carefully learned. This will be followed with a general outline <>f history as contained in Myers' Manual of Medireval and Modern History. In the English and .Anglo-Saxon Language and their Litemtui·e.Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written compr•sition and declamation ; this will be followed by a study of the historical grammar of -the language. The history of English literature will then be taken up, and the lives of the authors studied in connection wit~ specimens ·Of their writings which will be criticised in class. After this, the English of Shakespeare will be made a special subject of the study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on, which will be included in the .critical study of some one of the plays of Shakespeare. ·International La.w.-The work of a French or German Author will be made the basis of an exposition of the principlei! of International �------------------f"1 i' , II,, ~I' 32 Gircu.lar of St. John's College. Circular of St. Jol1,n's Golle.qe. Law, while at the same time the acknowledged superiority of American and English authorities will be kept in view. The subject is taken up in the first term of the Senior year. !, Constitutional Law.-The Senior Class will pursue the study of Constitutional Law in the second term. With the study of the present status of Constitutional Law, a constant reference to the reports of decisions in the more important cases will serve to develope a familiarity with the process of constitutional growth. Su"Qjects ·involving constitutional questions will be assigned for the writing of essays. Elocution.-The Senior and Junior class will be given instruction in Elocution for one hour every week. DEPARTltlENT OF M:ECHA.NICAL E~GINEERING. The course in this Department will cover four years and consist of both theoretical ·and p1·actical instruction. A work-shop has been opened, in which each engineering student is required to spend several hours per week. This shop will be enlarged as circumstances demand. Each student also has several hours' practice per week iu the Drawing-room, receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective, isometrical and free-hand drawing. In connection with this branch, during the Sophomore and Junior years, each Student has one problem per week in Descriptive Geometry. These problems are made as practical as possible. The Junior and Se_nior students hav.., practice in designing, and each one is required to make complete working drawings of at least one machine of his own desigr,. "The lectures in Design and Fabrication of Machinery, and in Contracts and Estimates, cover the Junior and Senior years, and are considered a very important part of the course.

Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at ""the close of each term. T)he marks of these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations, to make up the student's :standing for the term. Any student, whose examinations a~ the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advan'taae the studies..of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to hi~ on th.e first.day of the next year, an opportunity to retrievE> his fost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower 'Class. A student deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any :study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each redtation noted on the grade of from '()to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class in any study, -each student must obtain an average of 3.0 on the ·recitations and on the examinations of the whole session. This average is arrived at by taking twice the recitation mark, adding thereto the examination mark and dividing the sum'by 3. l•? l 2R~E '] [' ormu a, -~=average. mark. J - -provided also, t'hat the examination mark in that study be not l'~ss than 2.75. First and second h~nors on Graduation Day are given to thqse students respectively, who ~hall have obtained the hi~hest and next highest average mark in all studies fr9m the beginning of the Sophomore year. Demerits will be given for" all absences not excused, and fc.r violations of college regulations. Reports respectip.g conduct and sch~larship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians ~f :students. Whene~er. any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any term, or 150 for the year; or any student of the 'Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the College so long :as he shall remain a me111ber of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with the Colleg~ rules he will be required to leave the institution. 3 i1. �r-,,I 1 34 Circular of St. Juhn's 0Jlle.qe. All students are required to be present promptly on the opening dayof the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while College exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at.the written request of his parent or guardian. Each student of the College Department may absent himself without penalty from ten recitations during a terln, such absence to be designated "a cut;" but not more than three cuts can be taken in any· one branch of learning. Excepting these cuts the student will be marked zero for each and every abs~nce whatsoever from recitations, and shall also receive 10· dem~rits if the excuse for the absence is not satisfactory. All absences owing to prolonged illness- may be considered by the Faculty, upon the recommendation of the_ Principal, or upon the cer-tificate of a recognize<! physician. Certificates of Distinction of the First and Second Grade are pre-sented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct for the-academic year. ' Etuden1s "ho baye oLtaim:d rn averai;e of 4.5 in any one branch oi study are honorably mentioned; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (3) in any one '!tudy forthe academic year. INSPECTION OF DORJtIITORil!.S. An inspection of every room is made daily in the morning before breakfast by the Superintendent of the halls, at which time the rooms. must be open and students dressed.

Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations. from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have. been made to the library, and l)y means of the regular library fund; sub-scriptions have been made to a number of American and Foreign periodicals. A complete library being_ an indispensable auxiliary to. the intellectual advancement of professors and students, its claims arecommended to the alumni and to the friends of education in the: State. Any contributions of books or funds will be gratefully acknowledged. Th\·re are now on the shelves about 6,000 volumes, which are carefully classified and catalogued, thus forming an admirable working· library for the stude11t. Among these works are 480 bound volumes. mrculai· of St. John's Oolle,qe. 35 of American and English periodicals. Easy access to the contents of these works is furnished by Poole's Index of all subjects treated of in home and forei!!n magazines. The College library and reading room is open every Saturday from g to 12 a. m., for reading and t1tking out of books and periodicals. The following magazines and reviews, furnishing all a student can reasonably need, are on file for 1890. Atlantic Monthly, Century, Popular Science Monthly, Harper's Monthly, Nation, North American Review, Literary World, Forum, New Princeton Review, The Academy, Harp' r's Young People, Saint Nicholas, American Journal of Philology, Lippincott's, Overland Monthly, Scribner, Education, Scientific American, American Agriculturist, Andover Review, and the following British Reviews: Blackwood, Edinburgh, Westminister, Quarterly, Contemporary, Fortni~htly, Macmillan, Nineteenth Century, and the Fliegende Blaetter. LITE8ARY l'IOCJIETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usally delivered before each society upon the Monday and Tuesday preceding Com~ mencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. SO(l)ETY OF ALUJllN'I. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate.. education (whether graduates or not) at St. John's Col· lege, and left in good standing, are ~onsidered members of this society. It numbers on its -roll many names.prominent in the history of the State. PUBLIC WOR8HIP &ND RELIGIOUS INSTRUCJTION. The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scriptures and prayerin the Coliege Hall. It must not be assumed, because St._John's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work and government. On the contrary, every opportunity will be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The study of Christian Evidences is assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times, at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy of the several denominations of Annapolis, by which students may enjoy the advantages of special instructi n in the tenets of their respective churches. The Principal holds a Bible-Class every Sunday morning in the College Chapel from.9.45 to 10.30, A. M., to which all students of whatever denomination are invited .. TERJllS AND VACA no~s.

Oircular of St. John's Oollege .. within the reach of students of limited means. It has been carried ,on successfully during the year under the supervision of the Principal of the College. It now numbers twenty-five members. The club is managed by a commissary, who collects from its members t~eir sh~res of its monthly expenses, pays the bills and receives for his service a small payment from each member of the club. T~e commissary is always in such cases a student, and students work their way frequently through colleges as commissaries. Under this system at the close of each month, an inventory is taken, all accounts are settled and the expenses are divided among the members of the club. An auditing committee is then appointed each month by the club, to examine the books of the commissary, and to ,report to the club. Each member must advance $10.00 at the commencement of each month, and at the close must pay the balance due, as no deficit is allowed to run into the following month. The cost of heating by steam must also be paid in advance to the Treasurer of the College according to assessment at the beginning of each term. During the past year the total expenses of the members of the club for board, heat, light, compensation of Gommissary and care of rooms hav~ varied .from $3:89 in March, to $2.85 per week in. May.. Owing to higher prices durmg the past year for most articles of food, the average cost has been $3.38 per week. Washing has been $1.50 per month. The total expenses of a student in j,he College Department for the past year, boaraing in the club, have been as follows: 38 weeks board !tt $3.38 per week, including steam heat $16.10 .. $128 44 months wa~hmg at $1.50. .. .. . . . . .. . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . .. .. . .. . . 13 50 e;n~ of Furmture.......................................... 6 00 6h1t10hf......

But und.er anotb-er form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest Colleges in the country. At the City of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1071, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and erecting ·a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the Act of 1696, establishing K1NG W1LLIAM's ScHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was Willliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING W1Lr,1AM's SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are an'ong its ~lumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could 1Je mentioned. The college is pleasantly situat.en at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn River, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the re<tr, is adITTirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Se\ ern, affords every facility for sw:mming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage. desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has Railroad communication with Baltimore and ·washington Sl·veral times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former <'ity, and telegraphic c.onnection with eyery part of the country.

Nl �Oircitlar of St. Jolin' s College. REMARKS O.N CO!JKSES. . It is to be seen that in the classical course, the study of Mathematics is discontinued after the :first term of the J"unior year, at which point the study of the sciences begins. The classical student will thus devote some time to scientific study, the particular branches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Scientific Course, taking no Greek at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at the end of the Junior year, enjoys a fuller course of English, and begins the study of science -earlier than the classical student. In the Scientific and Mechanical Engineering course, in which neither Latin nor Greek is requtred, {except the Latin required for admission,) four y<>ars are given to .Zoology, Botany, Physics, Chemistry, and to Mathematic3. Also, in the Scientific course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German is required for every degree. No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the dose of the term, and then only at the wi·itten request of his parent or guardian. . Students pursuing a select course may enter any class for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direc tion of the Faculty. -~· Bepa11tmen ts.-~- The course of instruction embraces the following departments : I. Mental, Monil and Social Science.-Includin!? Metaphysics, Logic, Ethics, Natural and Revealed Religion and the Evidences of Christianity and Political Economy. ' II.

Logic.-J evon's-Hill's text book is used. Special care is taken to -enforce a practical application of logical formulas in the resoluti_?n of :arguments, and the det<>ction of sophistries. To this end illustrative examples are drawn from different authors and much oral instruction is giYen. Political Economy.-Instruction is given in Political Economy by means of text books, lectures and conversational discussions. The student is required to he familiar with the leading principles of this subject as presented by the author whnse work is used as a text book, and is then encouraged to study e<'onomical problems of the present time from the historical, and, so far as may be, absolutely impartial standpoint. DEPARTlllEN'l' OF ANCIE~T , i ,I I.A~GU.-\GES. Lnt·in.-The study of Latin extends throughout the classical and Latin Scientific courses. In the work of the Freshman year special attention is given to the structure of the Latin sentence, as illustrated in SPlect portions of the writings of Cicero, Livy, and Horace, and a<t unfolded through fre_ quent written and oral exercises in Latin prose composition. But the ·chief object of the course is the study of Latin literature, through a critical reading of selectioni from the most important authors in historical succession, viz., in the Sophomore year, Cicero, and the Ciceronian and Augustan poets; and iri the Junior anrl Senior years, Plautus, Quintilian, Tacitus, Persius and .Juvenal. This reading is accompanied in the Junior year by a study of topics relating to the history ·of Latin literature. _ Gi·eek.-There will be four recitations a week rn the GrPek course which will extend over three years. During Freshman year the stu<lent will complete the first four books of the Ana basis and will have daily exercises, both orally and at the blackboard, in translating into Greek. Such a drill will be given upon every point of Grammar, that this subject will be thoroughly mastered, before he finislF•s the Anabasis. During the Sr>phomore year, six books of Homer will be read and selections from Herodotus and Thucydides. The Junior class will read the Apology, Crito, Medea, and three Philippics of Demosthenes, all of which will be completed. Lectures will be given in the Freshman and Sophomore classes upon Greek :M:yti1ology, l\1am1ers and Customs. and History of Greek Literature and Greek Art. During the Sophomore and Junior years· d.ily practice will be had in reading at Sight. . I ,I :1 "',! 1.11i �24 Circular of' St. John's College. DEP.-lRT.IIENI' OF MODER~ LANGUAGES. li'1'ench.-During the first year, attention is given to conversation· the study of forms, the construction of sentences, writing French from dictation, acquiring a vocabulary, and reading familiar dialogues. During the second year, special attPntion is given to etymology, thehistory of the language, trans~atio11s from English into French, and reading the classic poets. During the other terms the time is devoterl: to the history of literature, the stu<ly of synonyms, and to extended ·and nl.pid reading of the standarJ authors, and to composition in French. Italian crnd Spnnish.-Tbe study of these languages is entirely elec-tive. Gernian.-There will be three recitations peT week in the German course, extending thf'ough the Sophomore, Junior and Senior years. The class will commence atthe beginning of the term to read Grimm's. Hausmaerchen, Otis' Enitiori, and, in co1;nection "·ith it, will .stuC:y as they need it, Whitney's German Grnmmar. The student will be required daily, both orally and at the blackboard, to translate from English into German. The first year will be given to the Grammmand the J.VIaerchen of which one hundred pages will be read. ,, ,,~ I' Ii I! Ii 11, During the second year William Tell, and Herrman and Dorothea will be completed. 'fhe third year will be given to Maid of Orleans. and first part of Faust, both of which will be completed and to selections from Goethe's Presa. Special attention will be given to speak. ing and writing German correctly. The recitation will be conducted in the second year, as far as possible, and in the third year entirely,. in the German languages. Twelve lectures will be givei;i, during the· course, on the History of German literatnre. 1f ,f i II ! DEPA.R'l'MENT OF ltIA.THEltlATICS. The required studies in Mathematics include Geometry, with problems and exercises in Geom('trical invention ; .Algebra, Plane and Spherical Trigonometry, with their application to problems in Surveying and Navigation, and .A.11alytic Geometry, In the Junior year the Rtmly of the Calculus, and in the Senior yea1· of Applied Mechanic8, is pursued in the Scientific and Mechanical En-. gineering courses. Elementary and Practical .Astronomy is taught in the Senior year. DEPARTltlEN'I' OF NATURAL SCIENCE. The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to makeinstruction in Physics and Chemistry a prominent part of the Col- • Circular of Et. John's College. legiate course. .Additions are from time to time made to the philosophical apparatus and every effmt used to make the laboratories and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illus+ration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfuily received. Some important changes having recently been made in this depart-ment, an account of the work as now organized is here given. 1. Zoology.-The atudy of Zoology will be pursued during the first term of the Freshman year. The course consists of daily recitations from text-books, upon classification and descriptions of Animal Kingdom. With this is combined practical work by the student in examining and dissecting a large number of typical species. The proximity of the College to the water affords special advantagPs for the study of marine forms of animal life. 2. Botcmy.-In this branch special attention will be given to systematic Botany, the work consisting of daily recitations from text books, and the class making frequent excursions to the woods so as to study 'bie habitb of the various plants. Students will be required to analyze from 1(:0 to 1:!5 specimPns and are expected to become so familiar· with the charactel'istics of h·enty or more families, that they can recognize at sight plants belonging thereto. In addition, the course ·will include elementary studies in Structural anrl Physiological Botany, the· instruction in which will be largely by lectures. 3. I'hysics.--·This subject is pursued for a year imd a-half. The firstterm of the Sophomore is employed in the study of Mechanics, Dynamics, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, etc., also of the subject of Sound. The second te1 m of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term of the Junior year to Electricity. The_ work consists of almost dailv recitation from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult Pxp~riments performed by the Professor. The class will be required, in the solution of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent. application of the principles learned. . . 4. Chemist?'y.-In this branch the second term of the Jumor year is devoted to general Chemistry, particularly of the non-metals, that the stunent may become familfar with the elementary gases and the methods of manufacturing the acids and many other common reagents. The >\'hole of the Senior year is deyoted to Analytical Chemistry .. During the first term the student learns the action of each reagent on the "basis and acids. The work is continued until foe student becomes so familiar with their reactions that he himself can devise methods of separating them from each other. The remainder of the first teTm is then spent in the analysis of known material according to well arranged and easy methods. The course consists of daily work in the laboratory, together with daily recitations on the work of the day previous. The student is early taught to become familiar with the writing of reactions, and an important part of the recitations co1 sists in the expressing, in chemical equations, of the relations previously described. . 1: I, I' I ·111 I �Circular of St. John's College. Circu,lar of St. Joltn's Colle,qe. During the second term, the student is given unknown material con·taining from two to five bases with acids, and he is expected to have become so familiar with the methods of separation, that he can follow the table without text books, and usually, upon the first report name the elements contained in the substance analyzed, and by' solubilities decide approximately what baRes and acids are combinad. During this term also special attention is paid to the writing of oxidation and reduction equations by a new method, whereby the pupil cannot fail to express any reaction however difficult, when he knows the most important substances formed. Lectures in Organic Cl1emistry will also be given, so that the student may learn the simplest facts relating to this subject. The text book is Prescott's smaller or larger Qualitative Analysis. The student is recommended to purchase the latter, because of its being better adapted to the first part of the work here described. A course in Quantitative Anaylsis can be given to any student who may wish to pursue the study further. Each student is provi<led with a table, together with all the common reagents and necesary apparatus. An account is kept of the reagents and apparatus thus provided, as well as of all returned by the student at the end of the year, the charga being made as small as will suffice to cover expenses. The cost of these, mclnding gas, has averaged from $5 to $G per year to each student. Special attention is called to this fact, as it is believed that no college in the land affords its students equal opportunities to become thoroughly acquainted with qualitative analysis at so small a cost. ·currence, which afford an ·illustration of the principles of International Law, will be discussed.

Reference will be made to important decisions as rendered when they may afford additional illustritions of the principles of Constitutional Law. The subject will be taken up in the second term of the Senior year. Elocution.-The Senior and Junfor classes will be given instruction in Elocution for one hour every week. :26 DEPART.lIENT OF HIS'rORY, THE ENGLISH LA~GUAGE, LIT· .l'lKATLTl.lJ<.: AND LA,V. In this department instruction will be givenIn History.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman History is believed to be the basis of all historical study, and these will first be carefully learned. This will be followed with a general outline ·of history as contained in Myers' Manual of Medireval and Modern History. In the English and .Anglo-Sci.von Languages and thefr Literature:. Und<>r this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation; this will be followed lJy a study of the historical grammar of the the language. The history of English li:erature will then be taken up, and the lives of the authors studied in connection with specimens of their writings which will be criticised in class. After this, the English of Shakespeare will be made a special subject of the study, and the most marked points of difference between ElizabP.than and modern English noted and commented on, which will be included in the ·critical :>tudy of some one of the IJlays of Shakespeare.

The course in this Department will cover four years and consist of both th3oretical and practical instruction. A work-shop has been -0pened, in which each engineering student is required to spend sev.eral hours per week. This shop will be enlarged as circumstances demand. Each student also has several hours' practice per week in the Drawing-room, receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective, isometrical and free-hand drawing. In connection with this branch, during the Sophomore and Junior years, each Student has one problem per week in Descriptive Geometry. These problems are made as practical as possible. The Junior and Senior students have practice in designing, and each one is required to make complete working drawings of at least one machine of his own desig1;. The lectures in Design ancl Fabrication of Machinery, and in Con,tracts and Estimates, cover the Junior and Senior years, and are con.sidered a very important part of the course. For outline of the course, arranged by ye&rs and terms, see pages 20 and 21. ::, '' ! i <flOURSE IN SHOPS, Al'COJUPANYING THE COURSE IN ltIECHAN.

The ~tudent is required in the recitation room to solve problems relating to the location of simple and compound railroad curves, and is taught the application of the primoidal formula to the calculation of earthworks. He is also taught the practical use of the transit and level in the field, and studies land surveying, the laying off and dividing up of land and calculating the contents. 'l'he text book used is. Davis' surveying (Van Amrige). EXAMI'\ATION, REPORT, COSDU<T. ·written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks of these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations, to make up the student's slanding for the term. Any student, whose examinations at the close· of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the ne11:t year, an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lowe1· class. A student deficient in knowlege, or pPrsistently'' neglectful of any study, is at any tir. .1e liable to be reducer1 to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from U to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a hig'rnr class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 8.0 on the recitations and on the examinations of the whole session. This average is arrived at by taking twice the recitation mark, adLling thereto the examination mark and divic1ing the same by 3. LFormula 2 R-;~] [ . ' 3 -average work. ] provided also, that the examinat'on mark in that study be not less· than 2.75. '' '·' First and second honors on Gra<luation Day are given to those stn-dents respectively, who shall have obtained the highest and next highest average mark in all studies from the beginning of the Sophomore year. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for· violations of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct ancl scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 forthe year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the College so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no. longer cheerfully comply with the College rules he will be required to. leave the institution. ii' ,, . Circitlar of H. John's College. 29 All students are req_uired to be present. promptly on the-openinz day of the session, and no student will be· permitted to leave the Co1lege while the College exerciRes are progressing, except in cases of urgent n<>cessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. Each student of the College Department may absent himself with-out penalty from recitations during the term, such .,absence to be designated "a cut," but not more than three cuts can be taken in any one branch of learning. Excepting these cuts the student will be marked zero for each and every absence whatsoever from recitations, and shall also receive 10 demerits if the excuse for the absence is not satisfactory. All absences owing to prolonged illness may be considered by the Faculty, upon the recommendation of the Principal, or upon the certificate of a recognized physician. Certificates of Distinction of the J!'ii;st and Second Grade are presented those students in any class who shall have obtain'3d an average of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct for the academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned ; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who bas failed to receive tbe p'assing mark (3) iii any study fo:r the ac:cdemic year. INSPEC'l'ION OF DORMITORIES. An inspection of every room is made daily in the morning before breakfast by the Superintendent of the halls, at which time the rooms must be openPd and students dressed. The rooms of students are also inspected by the Superintendent at the commencement of study hours, and are liable to official visitation by any member of the Faculty, or the Offi.cers of the Day at any hour. A final inspection is taken at 10.30 p. m., when students art' required to retire and to be in their rooms for that purpo3e two minutes after "taps," (10.25). All lights in the Dormitories must be extinguished at 10.30. L1BKARY AND READING ROOJI. Through the liberality of the Legislatur'e of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '·72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the library, and by means of the regular library fund, subscriptions have been made to a number of American and Foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensably auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors !md students, its claims are commended. to the alumni and to the friends of education in the State. Any co.ntributions of books or funds will be gratefully acknowledged, There are now on the shelves about 6,000 volumes, which are carefully classified and catalogued, thus formin~ an admirable working library for the student. Among these ,,works are 480 bound volumes I I I' I f: i I1:1:'' ii I I I"[ l''I'i ,11 I·' 1i I �30 Circular of St. John's College. of American and English periodicals.

LI'l'ER "RY SOCIETIES. , There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultiviition of composition and debate. An oration. is usually delivered before the societies, upon the Monday and Tuesclay preceding CommencPment Day, by some gentleman selected by them. SOCJIETY OF A.LUMNJ T~e Society of Alumni hold~ its annual meetings on the day pre- cedmg Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by .one of .its membe:s. All former students who have completed theu collegiate educat10n (whether graduates or not) at St. John's College, and left in .good standing, are considered members of this society, It. numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. . PUBl,I{.l l\OR~HIP AND RELIGIOU<i IN'S'I'RUCJTION ' ,'I The exercises o~ each day are opened with the reading of th~ Scriptures and prayer m the College Hall. It mn~t.not J_ie assun;ied,. b~cause St.John's is a non-sectarian college, that rehg10us rnstruct10n is ignored in its work and government. On the contrary, every opportunity will be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The study of Christian Evidences is assigned an ·important part in the College curriculum. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times> at such church as their parents may direct. Arrangements have bePn made by the College authorities wiJ;h the clergy of the several denorn· inat~on~ of Ann.apo~is, by which students may ~njoy the advantages of special rnstruct10n m the tenets of their respective churches. The Principal holds a Bible-Class every Sunday morning in the Col lege Chapel from 9.45 to 10.30, A. M., to which all students of whatever denomination are invited. TERMS A.ND 'VACATIONS.

For the expenses of Senatorial Scholars see page 33. Every boarding student is required to deposit with the 'freasurer a fee of $1.50 per term, to be paid by him to such church as the student may attend. An additional charge of $2.50 per term will also be made upon ctll students for use of the gymnasium and instruction in gymnastic exercises. Students lodging in the College buildings and boarding elsewhere are charged from $10 to $15 per annum room rent. vVillfu:l damage, or damage resulting from carelessness, will be made the ground of additional charge, to be defrayed by the perpetrator. Students holding Senatorial 13cholarships are required to lodge in the College Halls, and are provided with room furniture, for the care of which they are held strictly acountahle. Students not holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to provide themselves with furniture. Furniture may, however, be hired from the College authorities at from $3.00 to $5.00 per term, according to its character and cost, and the hirer will be held responsible for all damage thereto, beyond the reasonable wear and tear of the same. Disbursements will be made for personal expenses of students, if funds are deposited by parents or guardians for this purpose, but no 1tdwnce will be rnctde by the College. Books will also be furnished to students, provided a deposit of ten dollars be made for tha~ purJtOSe at the beginning o.f each term. At a final settlement, at the close of the year, the unexpended balance, if any, will be refunded. TUITION.

BOA.RDJSG. The two College <lormitories, Pinkney and Humphreys Halls, as well ai the recitation Luihling l'lfoDowell Hall, have been provided each w:th a separate steam heating apparatus of the most approved sort. T.tese have befn thoroughly testetl <luring the severe weather of past winters all'l found entirely satisfactory. The lodging rooms have also besn recently renovated, papered ant! painted, and other improvements made conducing to the health and comfort of students. Students may boartl in the College boarding house known as the College Commons, in private families or in clubs, but are not allowed to Board at, or frequent Hotels or other public houses where intoxicating liquors are sold. The Boarding Department of the College in all its branches is under the supervision of the Principal. The boarding houses will be closed during the Christmas and Summer vacations.

This Dep:i.rtment is mana~ed by an Alumnus of the College of experience m i:mch matters, under the supervision of the Principal and is conducted on a most liberal sc:ile. The board provided is of superior quality, proper Yariety and liberal in quantity. · The regular charge in the C:ollege Commons including room-rent, table-boanl, attendance of seryants, heating, lighting and washing, is $200 per annum.

Students obtaining such scholarships pay for board, heating, lights, &c.. including wa,shing. from $2.75 to $3.64 per week· CO·OPEKATIVE BOARDING. A co-operative boarding club was 0rganized at the beginning of Session '87-'88, also for the purpose of placing the advantages of the College 33 within the reach of sturlents of limited mer.ns. It has been carried -on sucessfully during the year under the supervision of the Prindpal of the College. It now numbers twenty-five members. The club is managed by a commissary, -.Yho collects from its members their shares of its monthly expenses, pays the bills and receives for his services a small payment from each member of the club. The commissary is always in such cases a student, and students work their way through colleges as commissaries. U nd(;lr this system at the close of each month, an inventory is taken all accounts are settled and the expenses are divided among the members of the club. An auditing committee is then appointed each 1uonth by the club, to examim.1 the books of the commissary, and to report to the club. Each member must advance $10.00 at the commencement of each month, and at the close must pay the balance due, as no deficit is allowed to run into the following month. The cost of beating by steam must also· be paid in advance to the Treasurer of the College according to assessment. at the beginning of each term. Durina the session 1889-'90 the total expenses of the members of the dub for"'board, heat, light, compensation of commissary and care of rooms have varied from $3.89 in March, to $2.85 per week in May. -Owing to higher prices during the past year for _most articles of food, the average cost has been $3.38 per week. Wash mg has been $1.5.0 per month. The total expense!< of a student in the College Department for the past year, boarding in the club, have been as follows: 38 weeks board at $3.38 per we.ek, including steam heat $16.10. $128 44 !J months washinll at $1.50................................ .. . . 13 50 Rent of Furniture............................................ 6 00 Tuition .................................. ·................... 75 00 <Jhurch Fee.................................................. 3 l~J Room for rent to be charge next session about........ . . . . . . . 15 00 .1 i1,I Total expenses .............................................. $240 94 ---- Cullege Department, (tuition $75.00) (as aboye) ................ $240 \l4 1st Prep.

The General Assembly of the State (Act of 1872, chapter 303, and 1878, chapter 315,) has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing to the incumbent of one State Scholarship from each Senatorial District in the State to be appointed by the Board of School Com- 3 i i :1 I/ I 11 �1 I 34 ],: II i I~ (Jircula1· of St. Joltn's College. missioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective districts, after competitive examination. The law requires that the candidates shall produce before the Board of School Commissioners satisfactory evidence of their moral character, and of their inability or the inability of their parents or guardians, to pay the regular College charges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the . several School Boards for the use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incmnbents are required by law to pledge themsel V!:'S that they will continue students of the College for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable ne~essity,. and that they will teach school within the State for not less than tw(}years·after leaving College. To obta,in a .full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none defir.ient in preparation. The Faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one year in ci:ise of worthy students. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide their own text-books. There are known to be at this date (June 10, 1891J, four vacancies in these scholarships, viz : one each from the counties of Dorchester, Garrett, CeciI and Baltimore city. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things bPing equal) to ,appoint those candidates who are not less than sixteen -years of age, and are most advanced in their studies. It is desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. ~ The Secretaries of the several School Boards are requested to communicate to the President of the College the names of those former incumbents of these scholarships who are now, or may hereafter be, employed in teaching in their respective counties or in the City of Baltimore.

The Instructor in charge of the Military Department is an officer of the Regular Army and. a graduate of tbe U. S. Military Academy, ·west Point, N. Y. '.rhe military exercises therein conducted are confidently recommended to parents and guardians as a means of giving to .the student I .:an erect carriage and soldierly bearing, of teaching him hahits of J>rompt and ready obedience, and of affording a systematic and healthy ·exercise each day. The drill takes place at such an hour in the morning as to constitute a recess in study and recitation. All students, ·-excevt those physically disqualified, are required to attend the drills, .and for those who apply to be excused because of physical disability a physician's certificate will be required. The nam<>s of three of the students most distinguished for their pr<•·ficiency in thiH departmen~ ate reported each year to the Adjutant ·General of the State, and to the ·war Department, at Washington. It is probable that, in future appointments to the Army from civil life, applications from students reported, in each State, as above, will be given the preference. I. ORGANIZcl.TJON. For purposes of tactical instruction, the students will be organized rinto a batta~ion of two or more companies, designated <.:ompanies "A," "'B," "C," &c., Corps of Cadets of St. John's College. The Staff will consist of an Adjutant, a Quarter-Master, a Ser!teant~Major,· and a Quartermaster Sergeant. Each Company will have the following Officers and Non-Comnnissioned Officers : One Captain, two Lieutenants, one First Ser:geant, four Duty Sergeants, four Corporals. There will also be one Musician with each Company. The Officers 'and Non-Commissioned Officers will be selected by the Commandant ·of Cadets, with the approval of the Principal, for their soldierly bearing and attention to and knowledge of military duty. As a rule, these .11,p,pointments· will be made according to classes. 37 P'KACTH1AL I'.\'STR,'C'CTION.

Oehm & Co., Baltimore, Md., for furnishing the same. 1 The uniform of the Corps of Cadets, which is a modification of that worn at the U. S. Military Academy, West Point, N. Y., will be as. follows: Dress coat and trouser11 of grey, the prices of the suit· range from $18 to $20, according to size of cadet. Fatigue blouse (which can be worn with trousers, as above) cost. $10.25. Forage cap of dark blue cloth, with ornaments, consisting of gold' embroidered wreath on dark blue ground encircling the letters "S. J .. c,," in old English characters. Price.$2.00. The purchase of the fatigue blouse is optional, but it is suggested to. parents that by providing their sons with both dress and fatigue suits. the necessity of providing every day or school suits is obviated. The· uniform is very substantial and wears satisfactorily. The dress uniform may also be worn, on occasions, as an evening dress suit. No uniform will be accepted until after having been inspected by· the Principal or Instructor . "'""" �38 Circular of St. John's College.

This School is es:abished primarily as a means of preparin"' boys t0> matriculate at- St. John's College. It is not an organic part of theCollege, but is under the supervision of the President of the College. The number of boys in the School has much increased during lateyears, and the outlook for the future is very promising. ACCOMMOD 1.TION. The boys, who come from a distance, may board in Humphreys' Hall.' which is reserved exclusively for their use, or, if preferred, may obtam board with private families in town, approved bv the authorities of the College, or in clubs, managed by the studen.ts of the Col-lege, whereby the cost of boarding is materially decreased. The rooms in1Humphreys' Hall are large and commoJious, and are lighted by electricity and heated by steam. As a rule, one- room is. occupied by two students, but a room can be secured for a single occu-pant by an extra payment for room rent. ADllISSION TO THE l'ilCHOOL. No boy will be received into the Preparatory School under twelveyears of age, and candidates for admission into the lowest class must be well grounded in the elements of a ririmary English education, viz :English Grammar, Arithmetic, Spelling, Reading and Geography. A boy, upon entering the Preparatory School, must take all the studies of t~rn _class to which he is assigned, the only exception being that of Latm m the lowest class ; and any boy who shall fail to obtain a general av~rage of 3.0 in all studies pursued by him during the year, will be reqmred to pursue the same course of study again durin"' the fol0 lowing year. . · SUPERVISION. The boys, who board in the College Hall, are under the direct super-vion of three Instructors, whose rooms are in th_e same bu1lding. A matron, whfl also ha!' apartments in the Hall, looks after and attends to their personal wants. They study their lessons under the supervision of an Instructor in one of the Col1ege class-rooms from 7.30 until 9.30 p. m., every evening, and are required to retire for the night at. 10 p. m , at which hour all lights in their rooms must be· extinguished. No boy is allowed to leave the College grounds at any time, unless he shall have obtained special permission from the Principal to do so. The use of tobacco in any shape or form is strictly forbidden and_ violation of this rule will render a boy liable to auspension. , ; . ' _ MILITARY DRILL. The boys, who are old enough, are' permitted to drill with the College Battalion and are required to wear the prescribed uniform. 'fheyounger boys are drilled in a squad by themselves. They are not required to wear the uniform until they are sufficiently advanced and old enough to dri-1 with the Battalion. Circ11lar of St. John's College. 45 GYMNASIUM. An excellent gyw.1asium furnishes all the requisites for physical training. The boys are instructed three times a week in dumb-bell -exercises ·and club swinging by a competent director, who is always -present, and is careful to see that no hazardous gymnastic exercises me attempted by them. I' ,I I LIT ERA.RY SOCIETY. By permission of the Faculty a room has been assigned for the use -0f the Preparatory School, in which the boys meet once a·-week and J>Ursue a series of readings, recitations and debates, after the model of ·the older literary societies, conducted by the students of the College. ·The Principal and Instructors of the School afford such help as may be derived from their suggestions and criticisms, but the society is managed by an executive committee, elected by the boys themselves from among their own number.

By boarding i11 the College Club, (see page 32), the above charge may be reduced to about $140 per annu·m. ~~ Candidates fop .A:dmission to the J"!a1al RcadeIItY· Classes are formed solely for Candidates for admission to the Naval Academy. An instructor has been specially engaged to take charge of . -this work, and he is rendered such assistance as may be necessary. The comse of instruction is not limited to the requirements for admission, but students are advanced a~ far as µossible in the mathematics of the first term in the Naval Academy. Candidates are received at any time of the year, and the instruction is very largely individual, ~pecial attention being given to the wants of every pupil. This school has always had distinguished success in preparing young men for entrance to the Naval Academy, an_d has the highest endorsement from the Naval officers stationed at Annapolis. Candidates may b:iard in the College or in the town. Those who live in the College are subject to the regulations and restrictions which :govern the regular College students. The regular classes of the School are in session from the first of -October to the fifteenth of May, when the spring examinations commence, and from the first of July to the first of September, when the regular Fall examinations take place. 11.1 1 �46 Oircitlar of St. John's College.

But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hm1dred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest Colleges in the country. At the City of .St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 16il, the Upper House of the General Assembly passed an Act "for founding and -erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the A?t of 1696, establishing KING WrLLlAM's· ScHooL, which was opened 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguisherl sons of Maryland-physidans, law.yers, ~tatesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. K1NG ·wrLLIA~r's SCHOOL was, in li84, merged into St . .John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode. and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, are among the alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mention'ed. LOCATION AND ACCESS. The College is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the .Severn River, a few miles from the .Chesapeake Bay. Nothing in the . countrv surpasses the picturesque beauty of ;ts situation. The college green i:; spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while .the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek,'' a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large ·com odious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and tech ical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. A napolis has railroaJ communication with Baltimore and Washiu ton several tilI\es a Jay, daily steamboat connection with the city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the conn- ~!I ,:,, !i ,,.

All students are required to be present promptly on t.he opening day -0f the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while the College exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. Eqch member of the Senior, Junior and Sophomore cfasses is allowed, in each term, as ruany absences from recitation in any study pur,sued by him in the class of which he is a member, as there are prescribed recitations per week in that study:. and for each absel!ceabove the numbei· thus allowed, he will he given zero as a recitation mark. Each student of the Freshman Class is allowed in each term three absenees from recitation, in each study in which five reciiations per week are prescribed; two absences in each study in which three recitations are prescribed; and one absence in each study in which two recitations are prescribed. Excepting tliese cuts he will be marked zero for each and every absence whatever· from· recitations, and shall also receive IO demerits if the excuse for the absence is not satisfactory. In his case all absences owing to prolonged illne~s may be considered by the Faculty, upon the recommendation of the President, or upon the certificate of a recognized physician. COURSES OF STUDY. I· ,I 'i ,, 1\egufa. tions. , . t The Collegiate Department embraces four groups of studies for undergraduates, each occupying four years, viz. : 1. The Classical and the Latin-Scientific, which both lead to the' degree of Bachelor of Arts. 2. The Scientific and Mechanical Engineering course, which lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science. The scheme of study in the different groups, arranged, for the sake of comparison, in parallel columns, will be found on pages 24 and 25. In order to obtain one of the above-mentioned degrees, a student must have compl~ted satisfactorily the course as herein laid 'down, but for such as may not be studying for a degree, select courses will CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. 15 be arranged according t,> the option of the parents or guardians, :subject to the approval of the Faculty. On the successful completion of such special courses certificates will be given. Post-graduate courses are arranged for those graduates who wish to become candidates for the l\Iaster's Degree. REMARKS ON COURSES. It is to be seen that in the classical course, the study of l\Iathematics is discontinued after the first term of the. Junior year, at which point the study of the sciences begins. The classical student will thus devote some ti.me to sdentific study, the particular branches being elective. Also, the student of the Latin Sdentific Course, taking no Greek .at all, and discontinuing Mathematics at the end of the Junior year, ·enjoys a fuller course of Engli,.h, ancl begins the study of science earlier than the classical student. In the Scientific and l\Iechanical Engineering Course, in which neither Latin nor Greek is required, (except the Latin required for admission,) four years are given to Zoology, Botany, Physics, Chemistry, and to Mathematics. Also,.in the Scientific Course, four years are given to the study of English. A full course in both French and German is required for every degree. No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the dose of the term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students pursuing: a select course may enter any class for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the directtion of the Faculty. · THIES AND TERMS OF ADC\IISSION. The regular examinatious )or admission into the College or the Preparatory Department are l:eld on the thinl Saturday in June, also on t)le third Wednesday and following Thurs·Jay of September of each year, and candidates for admission are requested to be present, if possible, on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each applicant, those of former teachers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies : . English Grammu and Composition, (including Punctuati_on); U. s ..

JOHN'S 'COLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. Candidates for admission to any higher class must be examined in all previous studies of the class they enter. The course of study in the Classics and Mathemat:cs in the Preparatory and lower Collegiate classes has l'een arranged in accordance with the requirements of the examination for matriculation in the Johns Hopkins University. A student who may have advanced through the Sophomore Class is. entitled to matriculate at Johns Hopkins University without undergoing any examination. He is also permitted to enter the seco1id year's course at tlte University if he can pass satisfactorily a test examination. 17' HONORS. TERMS AND YACATIONS.

An oration is usually delivered before the societles, upon the Monday and Tuesday preceeding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. PUBLJO WORSHIP AND RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION:. The exercises of each day are opened with.the reading of the Scriptures and prayer in the College Hall. It must not be assumed, because St. John's is a non-sectarian college, that religious instruction is ignored in its work and government. On the contrary, every opportunity will be offered for the fullest development of the Christian character. The study of Christian Evidences is assigned an important part in the College curriculum. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays, and at other times, at such church as their parents may direct. :Arrangements have been made by the College authorities with the clergy of the several denom. inatioris of Annaoolis, by which students may enjoy the advantages of special instruction in the tenets of their respective churches. 2 1' ii I[ ,, I I Id �:s CIRCULAR OF ST.

Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any' term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demeriti; for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Certificates of Distinction of the First and Second Grade are pre.sented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an aver.age of 4.5 and of 4, respectively, in all their studies, and shall have been satisfactory in conduct for the academic year. Students who have 11btained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned ; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (3) in any study for the .academic year. THE COLLEGE YOUNG JIIEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. This organization is stro'lgly representerl. A large majority of the students of the College take an active interest in promoting the objects of thR Association, and it is generally recognized as contributing in many ways to the welfare and safety of young men freed from parental restraint. A comfortable suite of rooms is provided in the College buildings for the use of the association as a place of !.eeting for religious purposes and as a readi°1J.g room. 19 1·' i I. •, EXAMINATIONS. I' i,' Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of eac:h term. The marks of these examinations are combined with the marks foi; claily recitations, to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student, whose examinations at the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the next year, a11 opportu,1itity' to retrieve his lost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A student deficient in knowlege, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at anv time I iable to be redL1ced to a lower class in that study.

Oliristian Evidences.-A course of study on theism, Christian Evidences, and the religions of the world extends through the entire Senior year. . Ethics.-The study of ethics, which extends ,through the second term, embraces the study of psychology, al~I) the consideration of pure morality and positive authority, the latter including civil government with the doctrine of the State, divine goverm;nent and family government. Logic.-Jevon's-Hill's text book is used. Special care is taken to enforce a practical application of logical formulas in the resolution of arguments, and the detPction of sophistries. 'l'o this end illustrative examples are drawn from differe~t authors and much oral instruction is given. Political Ecorwmy-In the prescribed work of the Junior Year, instruction is given in Political Economy by means of text books, lectures and conversational discussions. The student is required to be familiar with the leading principles of this subject as presented by the CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. 27' author whose work is used as a text book, and is then encouraged t0study erono~ical problems of the present time from the historical,. and, so far as may be, absolutely impartial standpoint. A student who has completed the prescribed course in .Junior Yearmay elect the Advanced Political Economy. 'fhe first term is taken up mainly with a study of the laws of the United States, relative to Currency, Finance and Banking. During the second term a brief time is devoted to the study of the English and Continental bankingsystem, the remainder being given. up to the discussion of the social Q.nd economic problems of the day. The aim throughout the entire course is to encourage, as much aR possible, original investigation on. the part of the student. DEPARTMENT OF ANCIENT LANGUAGES. Latin.-The study of Latin extends throughout the classical and Latin Scientific courses. In the work of the Freshman year special attention is given to thestructure of the Latin sentence, as illustrated in select portions of the writings of Cicero, LivlJ, and Horace, and aq unfolded through fre-quent written and oral exercises in Latin prose composition. But the· chief object of the course is the study of Latin literature, through a critical reading of selection-1 from the most important authors in his~­ torical succession, viz., in the Sophomore year, Cicero and the Ciceronian and Augustan poets; and in the Junior an<l Senior years, Plautus, Quintilian, Tacitus, Persius and .Juvenal. This reading is accom-panied in thP. Junior year by a study of topics relating to the history of Latin literature. Greek.-There will be four recitations a week m the Greek course which will extend over three yeariS. During Freshman year the student will complete the first four books of the Anabasis and a portion of Homer's Iliad. He will have daily exercises, both orally and at. the blackboard, in translating into Greek. Such a drill will be given upon '"very point of• Grammar, that this subject will be thoroughly mastered, before he finishPS the Anabasis. During the Sr>phomore year, six books of Homer will be read and selections from Herodotus and Thucydides. The Junior class will read selections from the works of Plato, Euripides, Demosthenes, or Suphocles. Lectures will be given in the Freshman and Sophomore classes upon Greek Mythology, Manners and Customs . and History of Greek Literatureand Greek Art. During the Sophomore and Junior years daily practice will be had in reading at sight. DEPART)fENT OF :MODERN LANGUAGES. Frencli.-During the first year, attention is given to conversation the study of forms, the construction of sentences, writing French from. dictation, acquiring a vocabulary, and reading familiar dialogues. �• CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. _During the second year, special attention is given to etymology, the history of the language, translatio11s from English into French and -reading the classic poets. During the other terms the time is de;oted to the history of literature, the study of synonyms and to extended .and rapid reading of the standard authors, and to composition in French. . Italian and Spanisli.-Tbe study of these languages is entirely elec- -tive. ' . Gerinan.-There will be three recitations per week in the German ·course, extending through the Sophomore, Junior and Senior years. The class will commence atthebeginningofthe term to read Grimm's IIausmaerchen, Otis' Edition, and, in connection with it, will stuG.y as they need it, Whitney's German Giammar. The student will be required· daily, both orally and at the blackb~ard to translate from E~glish into German. The first year will be giv'en to th\) Grammar anid the Maerchen of which one hundred pages will be read. /'During the second year William Tell and Herr111an and Dorothea 'will be completed. 'l'he third year wili be given to Maid of Orleans .a.nd first part of Faust, both of which will be completed and to selec~10ns from.~oethe's Prosa. Special·attention will be given to speakmg and wntmg German correctly. The recitation will be conducted ~n the second year, as far as possible, and in the third year entirely, m the German l~nguages. Twelve lectures will be given, during the ·course, on the History of German literature. DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS. 0 'The required studies in Mathematics include Geometry, with prob.lems ~nd e~ercises in Geometrical invention; Algebra, Plane and ~pher1cal Tr.1go~ometry, with their applioation to problems in Surveymg and Nav1gat10n, and Analytic Geometry, . . t In th~ Jumor ye~r t~e study of the Calculus, and in the Senior year ·of Applied Mechamcs, is pursued in the Scientific and Mechanical En.gineering courses. Elementary and Practical Astronomy is taught in the Senior year. DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE. The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make _instruction in Physics and Chemistry a prominent part of the Collegia~e course. Additions are from time to time made to the philosophical apparatus and every effort used to make the laboratories and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of the departnient will he thankfnllv receh,ed. Some important changes having recently been ma:de in this department, an account of the work as now organized is here given. l. Biology.-The scientific study of the Freshman Year will consist ·of courses in general Biology and Botany. The course in Biology 1 29· will be held during the first term and part of the second-. It will con-· sist of a series of lectures combined with appropriate text book work, and reference .to authority-be whole planned with a view to giving· the student a geneial knowledge of the most important types of life, from the Protozoa to the Vertebrates, especially as to the relationship· of one type to another. Class demonstrations will be giveU:, both in microscopic and gross dissection, the student being, as far as possible, familiarized with the use of the microscope and the simpler dissection methods. During this course, plant life will be studied with reference 'to its biological bearing, and in the early Spring the study of individual plants will be taken up'in Botany. Special attention will be given to plant analysis, and frequent excursions will be made so as. to study the habits of various plants. Students will be required to analyse· from 100 to 125 ·specimens, and are expected to become so familiar with the characteristics of twenty or more families, that they can recognize at sight plants belonging thereto. · Gray's New Manual of Botany will be the text book used and courses will be given in structural and physiological Botany. 2. Pliysics-This subject is pursued for a year and a-half. The first term of the Sophomore is employed in the Rtudy of Dynamics,. Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, etc., also of the subject of Sound. The second term of that year is given to Heat and Light, and the first term of the Junior year to Electricity. ''rhe work consists of almost daily recitation from Ganot's Physics, accompanied by more difficult experiments performed by the Professor. The class will be required, in the ·solution of a large number of practical problems, to make frequent application of the principles learned . 3. Olieinistry.-The second term of the Junior year is devoted to the study of general Chemistry. Remsen's Chemistry-briefer Courseis the text book used. During this term the student is familiarized with the general .principles and theories of In01;ganic Chemistry, illustrated by appropriate experiments. Each student is provided with a uesk and the necessa.ry reagents and apparatus. He is .required to perform personally all the experiments mentioned in the text book, under the direct personal supervision of the Professor. Special attention is given to this course and every endeavor will be made to keep it abreast with the requirements of curr:ont Chemical Science. Additions in the way of- apparatus are being constantly made, and a chemical library, containing the latest and most necessary books, is at the disposal of the student. The total Laboratory expenses will range from $4 to $7, according to the carefulness of the individual student. During the Senior year the subject of organic Chemistry is taken up. Lectures, illustrated by experiments, are given throughout the entire year. The text book is- Remsen's Organic Chemistry, which is used as a basis for both lectures and laboratory work. In view of the fact that many students, who intend making medicine or pharmacy their profession, desire organic chemistry, special attention will be given �I 31 CIRCULAR ·OF ST. JOHN'S 'COLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. to their needs in this course, in, order that they may secure more detailed chemical information than schools of medicine or pharmacy, usually are able to give. In addition to class work in organic Chemistry, a course in Qualitative Analysis is also given, extending through botl1 terms of the Senior year. Stoddard's Qualitative Analysis is the text book used. At the beginning of the first term, thP. student, who, by reason of his l!!-horatory work in the Junior year, is already well acquainted with chemical manipulation, familiarizes himself with the action of the ordinary reagents on each of those chemical e"!ements usually encou11tered. He then takes up Q!mlitative Analysis proper anrl continues it· to .the end of the year, undt-r the personal supervi,sion of tl;e Professor. Quizzes are heh) at intervals an<l students are taught to inquire into and understand the scientific reasons for what they are practising. For such students as desire to take Advanced Chemistry, there is provided a course consisting of laboratory workin Quantitative Analy.sis and reading in theoretical Chemistry. Provision is also made. for .students desiring instruction in special lines of chemical work. The laboratory expenses for the Senior year range from $5 to $10 per term, depending on the amount of apparatus broken. For the advanced course the expenses are about the same. Special attention is called to the amnunt of these expensPs. They average less than one-third the usual amount, and it is believed that no college in the country affords its students equal opportunities at .so small a cost. -of their writings, which will be criticisetl in class. After th.is, bhe English of Shakespeare will be made a s;pecial subject of the study, .and the most marked points of difference· between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on, which wi!l be included in •the critical study of some of the plays of Shakespeare. Intei·national Law.-Text bpok, Davis's Internation:.tl Law. For reference, Wool5ey's International Law is used. Events of recent occurrence, wh;ch afford an illustration of the principles of International Law, will be_ discussed. ·The subject is taken up in the first term of the Senior year. Constitutional Law.-Text book, Cooley's Constitutional Law. For reference, Kent's Commentaries is ust'd. Reference will be made to important decisions as rendered when they may afford additional illustrations of the principles of Constitutiorn~l Law. The subject will be taken up in the second term of the ~enior year. Elocution.-The Senior and Junior classes will be given instruction in Elocution for one hour every week . :30 •, ,,1· ,1 ,I DEPARTMENT OF ~l\IECHANICAL ENG!NEERING. The course in this Department will cover four years and consist of both theoretical and practical instruction. A work-shop has been opened, in which each engineering student is required to spend several hours per week. This shop will be enlarged as circumstances demand. Each student also has several hours' practice per week in the drawing room, receiving instruction in mechanical, linear-perspective, isometrical and free-hand drawing. In connection with this branch, during the Sophomore and Junior years, each Student has one problem per week in Descriptive Geometry. The~e problems are made as practical as possible. The Junior and Senior students have practice in designing, and each one is required to make complete working drawings of at least one machine of his own desigi:•. The lectures in Design and Fabrication of Machinery, and in Contracts and Eetimates, cover the Junior and Senior years, and are considered a very impprtant part of the course. For outline of the course, arranged by years and terms, see pages 25 and 26. DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, LITERATURE AND LAW. In this Department instrncticin will be givenIn Hist01·y.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman History is believed to be the basis of all historical study, and these will first be carefully lear.ied. This will be followed with a general outline of history as contained in Myers' Manual of Medireval and Modern History. The Advanced History (elective in Senior Year) consists of a critical study of the financial and political history of the United Stat'es. A course of reading from political documents and papers of prominent statesmen is supplemented by lectures and conversational discussions. The course is most advantageously pursued in connection with the eourse in Advanced Political Economy, but it may be followed independently. In the English and Anglo-Sa.von Langudges cmd thei1' Liternture :Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will :first be ·studied with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation; this will be followed by a study of the historical grammar of the language. The history of English literature will then be taken up, and the lives of the authors studied in connection with 'specl.mens 'i ·' COURSE IN SHOPS, ACCOMPANYING THE COURSE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING.

'rhe military exercises therein conducted are confidently recommended to parents and guardians as a means of giving t.o the student. an Prect carriage and soldierly bearing, of teaching him hahits of prompt and ready obedience, an<l of affording a systematic and healthy exercise each day. The drill takes place at such an hour in the morning 11s to constitute a recess in study and recitation. All students, except those physically disqualified, are required to attend the drills, and for those who apply to be excused beeause of physical disability a physician's certificate will be required. The nam ··s of threP. of the students most distinguished for their pr<•ficiency in this department aie reported each year to thP. Adjutant. General of the State, and to the "\Var Department, at W'ashi.ngton. It. is probable that, in future appointments to the Army from civil life, applications from students reported, in each State, as above, will be given the preference. I. ORGANIZATION. I For purposes of tactical instruction, the students will be organized into a battalion of two or more companies, designated Companies "A,,,. "B,'' "C," &c., Corps of Cadets of St. John's College. The Staff will consist of an Adjutant, a Quarter-Master, a SergeantMajor, and a Quartermaster Sergeant. Each Company will have the following Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers : One Captain, two Lieutenants, one First Sergeant, four Duty Sergeants, four Corporals. There will also be one Musician with each Company. The Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers will be selected by the Commandant of Cadets, with the approval of the Principal, for their soldierly bearing and attention to and knowledge of military duty. As a rule, these appointments will be made according to classes. III. THEORETICi\-L INSTRUCTION. This will comprise recitation,;, in Infantry and Artillery Tactics, portions of •U. S. Army Regulations and Military Law, to which will be added a course of Lectures on Military Subje_cts, including : ist. Strategy, under wh_ich ii? considered Organizations of Armies, Preparations for War and Operations of War. · 2nd. Grand Tactics, treatin~ of the Tactics of Marches, ManeuvreMarches, Combats, Battles, Pursuits and Retreats. 3rd. Minor Tactics. CONCERNING UNIFORM AND RRGULATIONS. \ The uniform is required to be wnrn on all drills, parades, and other military duties, and all College students are required to provide themselves with it. To insure uniformity in material and pattern, it is advisable that all uniforms bemade under a contract which the College authorities have entered into with Messrs. Oehm & Co., Baltimore, Md., for furnishing· the same. The uniform of the Corps of Cadets, which is a modification of that worn at the U. S. Military Academy, West Point, N. Y., will be as follows: Dress coat and trousers of grey, the prices of the suit range from $18 to $20, according to size of cadet. · Fatigue blouse (which can be worn with trousers, as above) cost. $10.25. Short trousers for young boys $2.50. Forage cap of dark blue cloth, with ornaments, consisting of gold embroidered wreath on dark blue ground encircling the letters "S. J .. C.," in old English characters. Price $2.00. The purchase of the fatigue blouse is optional, but it is suggested to parents that by providing their sons with both dress and fatigue suits. the necessity of providing every day or school suits is obviated. The uniform is very substantiai and wears satisfactorily. The dress uniform may also be worn, on occasions; as an evening dress suit. I ,., 'ii :· �_.------------------------------1Ii I,. ! I I 'I f'' Ii !' 11, I ii:' 36 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. No uniform will be accepted until after having been inspected by the Principal or Instructor. Chevrons for Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers will be of gold iace on black ground. All Cadets who have served one year in the Corps are permitted to wear upon their sleeves below the elbow, a diagonal half chevron of gold lace, and an additional half chevron above and parallel to the first, for each subsequent year of service. Competitive drills and target practice are held at the close of the session. The best drilled Company is distinguished as the "Color" Company, and the colors are borne by that Company in Battalion formation. Badges of honor are awarded to the best drilled cadets and prizes are offered for the best score at rifle practice. The honors of the Battalion were carried c.ff June, 1891, by Company "A," to which the custody of the colors was assigned. The following Cadets were reported last year to the Adjutant-General for proficiency: Osborne I. Yellott, W. Oscar Hurst, F. E. Daniels. i i i t I I• I' . -- CIRCULAR OF .ST.

At a final settlement, at the close of the year, the unexpended balance, of any, will he refunded. ~q.';:6%~.~- BOARDING. The two College dormitories, Pinkney and Humphreys' Hall, as well as the recitation building McDowell Hall, have been provided each with a separate steam heating apparatus of the most approved sort. These have been thoroughly tested during the severe weather of past winters and found entirely sa~isfactory. The lodging rooms have also been recently renovated, papered and painted, and other improvements made conducing to the health and comfort of students. Students may board in the College boarding house, known as the Colleg:e Commons, in private families or in clubs, but are not allowed to board at, or frequent Hotels or other .public houses where intoxicating liquor..; are sold. The Boarding Department of the College in all its branches is under the supervision of the Principal. 'fhe boarding houses will be closed during the Christmas and Summer vacations. THE COLLEGE COMMONS. I .11 i. i i. ,. T)lis Department is managed by an Alumnus of the College of experience in such matters, under the supervision of the Principal, and is conducted on a most liberal scale. The board provided is of superior quality, proper variety and liberal in quantity. The regular charge in the College Common includ1ng room-rent, able-board, attendance of servants, heating, lighting arid washing, is $200 per annum. Students boar<ling in the Commons therefore pay ~n full for the items above mentioned, with tuition charge added, per annum, as follows : In the Collegiate Department ........................ ·...... . :1];275 00 In the First Preparatory Class .............................. · 260 00 In the Second Preparatory Class .... ~ ......................• 250 00 In the.

Students obtaining such scholarships pay for board, heating, light, &c., including washing, from $2.75 to $3.64 per week. CO-OPERA.TIVE BOARDING. A co-operative boarding club was organized at the beginning of the Session 'Si-'88 for the purpose of placing the advantages of the College within the reach of stude 11ts of limiter! means. It has been carried on successfully during the year under the supervision of the Principal of the College. It now numbers twenty-eight members. The club is managed by a commissary, who collects from its members their shares of its m·onthly Pxpenses, pays the bills and receives for his ~ervices a small payment from each member of the club. The commissary is al ways in such cases a student and students work their way through colleges as commissaries. Under this svstem at the close of each month, an inventory is taken all accounts ar~ settlPd and the expenses are divided among the mtJmbers of the club. An auditing committee is then appointed each month by the club, to examine the books of the commissary and to report to the club. Each member must advance $10.00 at the commencement of each month, and at the close nrnst pay the balance due, as no deficit is allowed to run into the following month. The cost of hE>ating l1y steam must also be paid in advance to the Treasurer of the College a1"<·urding to assessment at the beginning of each term. During the session 1889·'90 the total expenses of the member~ of the dub for board, heat, light, compe11sation of commissary and care of rooms have varied from $3.89 in lV.iarch, to $2.85 per week in May. The average cost bas been $3.38 per week. ·washing has been $1.50 per month.

The law requires that the candidates shall produce before the Board of School Co111missioners satisfactory evidence of their moral character, and of their inability or the inability of their p:.irents or guardian.;;, to pay the regular College charges. A blank form cir certi_ficate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the several School Boards for the use of the appointees to the said schola,r.ships. These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue .students of the College for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To ·obtain a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by ti.1e Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested :to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The Faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one ~·ear in cas'il of worthy students. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide their own text books. There are known to be at this date (June 10, 1892), four vacancies in these scholarships, yiz · one each from the counties of St. Mary's .Somerset, Talbot and Garrett. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint those candidates who are not less than sixteen years of age, and are most advanced in thei'r studies. It. is desired that all applicants hereafter should be preparl:ld, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR TUITION ONLY. The law of the State of Maryland (Act of 18fl2) granting an additional appropriation to the College, provides for the education of twenty-six State Students, in addition to the foregoing, free of expenses for -tuition. These scholarships will be distributed among the counties of Maryland in order of priority of application.

The boys, who come from a distance, may board in Humphreys~ Hall, which is reserved exclusively for their use, or, if preferred, mayobtain board with private families in town, approved by the authori-ties of the College, or in clubs, managed by the students' of the Col-lege, whereby the cost of boardfng is materially decreased. The rooms in Humphreys' Hall are large and commodious, and are· lighted by electricity and heated by steam. ··As a rule, one room is: occupied by two students, but a room can be secured for a single occupant by an extra payment for room rent. ADMISSION TO THE SCHOOL. No boy will be ·received into the Preparatory School under twelve years of age, and candidates for admission into the lowest class must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education, viz : English Grammar, _Arithmetic, Spelling, Reading and Geograp~y. A boy, upon entering the Preparatory School, must ta~e all ~he studies of the class to which·he is assigned, the only exception bemg that of Latin in the lowest class ; and any boy who shall fail to obtain a gen �52 CIRCULAR OF ST ••JOHN'S COLLEGE.

The Society of Alumni holds its- annual me!hing' on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its mem'Jers. All former studants who have completed their collegiate education (whether gradnatE\S or not) at St. John's College, and left ii~ good shncling, are considered members of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in hi~tory of the State. The following are the officers for tke present year ' · J. SH4Ah' S·rocKETT, '44, P1·esident. DR. R. H.

The boys, who board in the College Hall, are under the direct supervis10n of three Instructors, whose rooms are in the same building. A matron, who also ha!'- apartments in the Hall, looks after and attends to ,their personal wants. They study their lessons under the supervision of an Instruc.tor in one of the College class-rooms from 7.30 until 9.30 ·p. m., every evening, and are required to retire for the night at IO p. m., at which hour all lights in their rooms must be extinguished. No ho.)' is allowed to leave the College grounds at any time, unless he shall have obtained special permission from the Principal to do so. The use of tobacco in any sh-ape or form is strictly forbidden, and violation of this mle will render a boy liable to i!USpPnsion. :MILITARY DRILL. A local association has also be{!n formed at New York, to which all graduates, alumni and friends of St. J<..hn's College living in or near that city arne1igible. The officers are: Philip R. Voorhees, '55, President; Somerville P. Tuck, '62, VicePresident; Elon S. Hobbs, '82,' Secreta1·y; Herbert Noble, '89, Tna8'urer. The boys, who are ohl en•m~lt, are permitt~d to drill with the College Battalion and are required to weitr the l)rescribed uniform. The younger boys are drilled in a squad by themselves. 'rhey are required to wear the unifurm of fatigue blouse and short pants. (~ee page 35.) · GY:MNASil:-M. An excellent gym~iasium furnishes all the requisites for physical training. The boys are instructed three times a week in dumb-bell ·exercises and club swinging D.)' a competent director, who is always lJres'ent, and is careful to ~ee that no hazardous gymi.rnstic exercises .are attempted by them .. LITERARY SOCIETY. By permission of the Faculty a room has been assigned for the use of the Preparatory School, in which the boys meet once a week and pursue a series of readings, recitations and debates, after the model of the older literary societies, conducted by the students of the College. The Principal-and Instructors of the School afford such help ·as may be. derived from their suggestions and critidsms, but the society is managed by an executive ·committee, elected by the boys themselves from among their own number.
