As such, it serves the need of college graduates who desire a broader and more thorough knowledge of the scholarship and research in a particular field. Many academic departments of the University have a long history of providing formal graduate study. The first master's degree was awarded in 1875. For many years graduate degree programs were under the direction of a University Committee on Graduate Study. The Graduate College was formally established with a full-time dean in 1952. Since that time it has served to provide graduate study opportunities in academic fields in which the University resources have made sound programs possible. The Graduate College is the fastest growing college in the University of Vermont. In 1953, following its formal establishment by the trustees, 46 master's degrees were awarded. In 1975, 319 master's degrees and 37 Doctor of Philosophy degrees were awarded. The Graduate College cur­ rently enrolls over 800 students pursuing advanced degrees with about 200 pursuing the Doctorate. Scholarships, fellowships, assistantships, and special loan programs are available in limited numbers for students who have achieved a good academic record in their undergraduate and graduate programs. With the excellent facilities, library holdings and laboratories, combined with its reasonable size, the Graduate College of the University of Vermont offers unique programs of high quality graduate study. • ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT The University" was founded in 1791, taking its place among the hand­ ful of colleges founded in this country in the eighteenth century for the higher education of young colonials and Americans of the first post-revolu­ tionary generation. The University was the fifth New England college chartered, the second established by a state to grant the bachelor's degree, and the twentieth in the nation to do so. Though it has enjoyed a long tradition which has seen it receive 5 THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT substantial private support, University development has been closely identified with that of the State since 1791, when Vermont's founding General Assembly granted a charter to the University and set aside about 29,000 acres throughout the State with the intent that rents from this land would support the new educational institution. That same Vermont General Assembly established that the by-laws of the University should give no preference to any religious sect or de­ nomination or discriminate against any, making the University of Ver­ mont the first in this country and possibly the first in history to go on public record as supporting freedom of religion upon its campus. The University consists of the College of Arts and Sciences, the Col­ lege of Agriculture, the College of Engineering, Mathematics and Business Administration, the College of Education and Social Services, the College of Medicine, the Graduate College, the School of Allied Health Sciences, the School of Nursing, the School of Home Economics, the School of Natural Resources, and Continuing Education. The present physical plant is valued at more than $55,000,000, a major share made possible through the interest and support of alumni and private philanthropy. The University Libraries The main Library, dedicated in 1961, is named to honor the late Guy W. Bailey, thirteenth president of the University. It holds the largest book collection in Vermont, and acquires regularly the major periodicals, scholarly journals and indexing and abstracting services. The University collections also include books in medicine and health- related sciences, and a strong collection in medical periodical literature, maintained in the Dana Medical Library of the Division of Health Sciences. The Bailey Library is a depository for United States and Canadian government publications, and acquires newspapers, pamphlets, maps, and materials in microfilm. The Special Collections Department includes books and manuscripts from the library of George P. Marsh, a significant Mase- field poetry collection, and its Wilbur Collection is rich in books and manuscripts of those associated with the State, including Ira Allen, Henry Stevens, Dorothy Canfield, Vermont Governors and members of the State Congressional delegation. The Physics and Chemistry Library is located in the Clinton D. Cook Physical Sciences building. The University Archives in the Waterman Building contain the per­ manent official records of the University. 6 THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT The Robert Hull Fleming Museum The Museum is a notable University collection of Western and non-Western art, a center for research and museological studies as well as a place for aesthetic exploration. The Reed Collection of Plains Indian Art and the Schnackenberg Collection of 19 th- and 20th-century American Art, for examples, are outstanding and of particular interest to students of American art and history. Exhibits are frequently rotated to serve class and seminar needs. Two galleries are given to changing exhibitions on special topics. These are frequently augmented by lectures, gallery talks, and films. Besides facilities to support the schol­ arly use of the collections, the Museum also houses class and seminar rooms for Art History and the Art Department slide library of 40,000 slides. The Academic Computing Center The Academic Computing Center was organized in 1960 to provide computing facilities for the campus com­ munity. The Center (Xerox Sigma 6) services the computation needs of the varied research projects on campus; its facilities are also used as an integral part of many graduate and undergraduate courses. The staff of the Computing Center is available at all times to anyone who requires assistance with the use of the machines, or the programming of them. A large up-to-date program library is maintained by the Center for use by University personnel. The George Bishop Lane Artists Series The George Bishop Lane Artists Series is one of the largest collegiate artists series in the country. It was inaugurated in 1955 by a gift of over $300,000 from the late Mrs. Lane, in honor of her husband, George Bishop Lane of the Class of 1883. The Lane Series makes it possible for the University to bring annually to the campus and the community a continuing program of some 34 out­ standing musical, theatrical, dance and other artistic productions for a moderate admission fee. The Series is planned and produced by a student- faculty committee, with townspeople serving with student and faculty members on an advisory committee. In addition to a major series of concerts, the Lane Series also sponsors a Chamber Arts Series in the spring semester, a Summer Series, youth concerts and special events, and concerts in several towns outside of Burlington, notably in Springfield.
