ILocatioii. Carleton College is situated at Northfield, Minnesota, on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and tbe Minneapolis & St. Louis Railways, seventy- live miles from the southern boundary of the State, and about forty miles south of St. Paul and Minneapolis. The town has a population of about three thousand people; is pleasantly located, and exceptionally healthy, and combines the activity and good order of a small city, with tbe freedom and sociability of quiet village life—conditions highly favorable not only to study, but to social and general culture. Ten passenger trains per day, making convenient connections with intersecting roads, afford excellent facilities for transit to or from any part of the State. The college grounds embrace more than twenty-five acres within the city limits, and command a fine view of the Cannon River Valley and the surrounding country.

©Etstn aiitr iGljatactec. The first trustees were nominated by the State Association of Congre­ gational Churches at its annual meeting in 1866. They organized at once, adopted articles of incorporation and became a self-perpetuating body en­ tirely free from ecclesiastical control, and possessed of all the legal rights belonging to such corporation. A preparatory school was opened in Sep­ tember, 1867. The first regular college class was tormcd three years later, and graduated in 1874. Every year has witnessed a steady advance in the num­ ber of instructors, in the various facilities for complete collegiate instruc­ tion, and in public confidence and reputation. It is the aim of the college to provide an education liberal arid thor­ ough, embracing not only mental discipline, but moral culture and the devel­ opment of a symmetrical Christian character. It is not sectarian or denom­ inational in any of its methods or influences, but is thoroughly Christian and distinctly and earnestly evangelical. There are four departments—the Collegiate, the Preparatory, the Eng­ lish Academy, and the Musical-r-all of which are open, on equal terms, to students of either sex, irrespective of race, nationality or denominational preferences. Each student studies in his own room, or in study rooms designated for that purpose, and meets with his class for public recitations. No provision is made for those who have not sufficient maturity and self-control to study profitably under these circumstances. The standard of scholarship is that of the best eastern colleges.

iSnbfjUimmt. GENERAL ENDOWMENTS.—The first large donation to the College was from Mr. William Carlelon of Chariestown, Mass., in the sum of fiftythou ­ sand dollars. This has been devoted by the Trustees to the General F.n- dowment Fund, and, with other gifts, of earlier and later date, forms ihe main trust fund of the institution. All undesignated gifts are placed to the credit of this fund, which, for many years to come, will need to be aug­ mented. The gift from Miss Susan Willis, afterward Mrs. Carleton, is appropri­ ately recognized by naming the main college building "Willis Hall." JOHN CHANDLKR WILLIAMS FOUNDATION.—This fund, intended for the endowment of the chair of Mental and Moral Philosophy, is in memory of John Chandler Williams, one of the early settlers of Chicago, III. Dr. Edward H. Williams, of Philadelphia, in 1883, gave to the College the sum of twelve thousand dollars, to meet the expense of erecting the science building. The gift is a memorial of his son, William Williams, de­ ceased, in memory of whom the building is named "Williams Hall." Endowment for the Library, for Prizes and for Beneficiary Aid, will be specified under those heads.

(Courses of J&ttrtrg. Three Collegiate Courses, of four years each, are provided. The Classical Course embraces the usual four years of classical study and requires three years of preparatory work. The Literary Course occupies the same time as the Classical, and dif­ fers from it only in substituting literary and scientific studies for Greek. The Scientific Course, omitting all Greek, and all but the preparatory Latin, gives greater prominence to the study of the physical sciences. The Englisli Academy Course, not Collegiate, extending over lour years, is arranged for those whose time or means will not allow them to se­ cure a thorough collegiate education. A certificate is given to those who complete this course; but they are not regarded as college graduates, or as entitled to a degree. Carleton College.

While every student is advised to enter upon some regular course, he is not required to do this, but may select from the different courses such branches as are regularly, taught, due regard being paid to his present at­ tainments, and to the length of time to be spent in study. An eclectic course, covering a wide range of study, may thus be pursued; but degrees and certificates are conferred only upon those who satisfactorily complete one of the prescribed courses of study.

SfUipifBiteB for .atnmssum.

PREPARATORY AND ENGLISH ACADEMY DEPARTMENTS. Those entering the English Academy or the Preparatory Department must pass examination in Arithmetic and English Grammar, or present sat­ isfactory evidence of their proficiency in those studies ; but no other exam­ ination is required, and only such advancement as will enable them to pur­ sue their studies with profit. The studies of the first term in each course are given on pages 22 and 24 respectively. Students under fifteen years of age will not be admitted except by special arrangement.

COLLEGIATE DEPARTMENT. Except in the cases hereafter specified, candidates for admission to the Collegiate Department must pass written examinations in the following studies, attaining a grade of 7 on a scale of 10:

L. COURSE. LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC COURSES. English Grammar. English Grammar. Physical Geography. Physical Geography. Elements of Physics. Elements of Physics. Arithmetic. Arithmetic.

Ancient History. Greek Composition, 25 sections. Mediaeval History. Anabasis, three Books. Modern History. Iliad, two Books. Elementary Rhetoric. Hist, of the English Language, 237 pp. Anatomy and Physiology. Elementary Astronomy. Students are not required to take a special examination for entrance to College upon any study in which they have a grade of S.5 from our Prepar­ atory Department, or an equivalent grade from some other institution. Cer­ tificates of examination from the State High School Board, or from ap­ proved high schools, will be accepted. Students holding diplomas of high schools which are ranked by the State Board as of the "first class" will be admitted to the Freshman class without further examination on any subjects included in the regular course of study of such schools. Candidates for admission to the Collegiate Department, if from other colleges, must bring testimonials of unexceptionable standing. To enter an advanced class, the student must be prepared for examination on what the class has completed when he enters it. As the classification is made on the first day of the term, and work is begun immediately, it is greatly to the advantage of all students to be pres­ ent at that time, and especially so at the beginning of the college year, when the regular classes in Greek and Modern Languages are formed.

&|je department of ^i)iloso]ifjg. The course in philosophy is pursued by the Senior class throughout the year, and includes the study of psychology, ethics, the history of phil­ osophy, and Christian Evidences. Through the use of appropriate text books, lectures and class room discussions, the aim is to give the student a practical and thorough understanding of the operations of the human mind, and to cultivate in him such habits of sound thinking as shall insure the greatest efficiency in the details of his secular and religious life. The course includes special attention to the basis of our belief in God, as prelim­ inary to the study of ethics in the third term of the year, in which term also the internal and historical evidences for Christianity are considered. By means of weekly recitations and lectures throughout the College Course, the student becomes acquainted with the history and text of the Bible.

Cfje Entailment of piston; ana political £citnu. The History of the United States since 1750 is studied in outline one term during the first preparatory year. A course in the outlines of General History is begun in the third term of the middle preparatory year and car­ ried through three terms. Abundant library references are given, the more prominent characters and topics are fully discussed, aud the attempt is made so to present the subjects that the progress of civilization, in its causes Carleton College. and its results, shall be comprehended by the students. This general work is supplemented—in Ancient History in connection with the study of the Greek and Roman Classics; in Mediaeval and Modern History by the spec­ ial study of the development and history of England. English History to 1688 is studied by all Freshmen during their second term. The principal topics are the rise of parliamentary institutions, the growth and decline of absolute royal power, and the struggles through which the supremacy of the' people was attained. The close connection be­ tween English and American institutions and history is carefully noted. In connection with the Latin of the junior spring two hours a week are in to the study of the development of the Roman Constitution, All the Seniors study the Political and Constitutional History of the United States during the last term of the year. No text book is used, but the students are directed to the sources of information in the library, and the ics assigned for each day are discussed with the instructor during the recitation hour. The course covers the time from 1783 to 1850, special at­ tention being paid to the forces that gave shape and direction to our govern­ ment, to the earlier parly struggles, and to the history of slavery as a factor in American politics. In Political Science the following courses are given: to Preparatory students—Civil Government, including the elementary principles of Law, one term; to Seniors—Constitutional Law (forty hours); Political Economy (fifty hours). Discussions and lectures accompany the recitations, and spec­ ial topics are assigned for full investigation and report to the class. The aim is to secure on the part of each student a thorough acquaintance with the fundamental principles of these subjects, that he may be prepared to form well defined and sound opinions for himself, and be a safe guide to the opinions of others.

Cfje ^Department of ©rcefe. The degree of A. B. has come to represent a definite training and cul­ ture, and so has a well-recognized signification which we would preserve. Accordingly the study of Greek is required of all students in the Classical Course, but is omitted entirely from our Literary and Scientific courses of study. There is a daily recitation in Greek during seven preparatory and six Collegiate terms, except that it is optional with Qualitative Chemistry, one term of Sophomore year, and gives place to Bible Study once a week dur­ ing one term of the Junior year. In the Preparatory Department, the study of the Grammar is completed, and special pains is taken by translation both from Greek into English, and Car le 107i College. from English into Greek, to give the student a complete mastery of forms, an interest in tracing English derivations from the Greek, a general knowl­ edge of syntax and idioms, and a considerable vocabulary. During this time we read four books of the Anabasis and three of the Iliad. These ends are not entirely abandoned when the student enters the Collegiate Department, but the study of Greek Prose Composition closes with the first term of the Freshman year, and the analytic study of words becomes less and less, while greater prominence is given to more rapid reading, translation at sight, the Homeric Question and Mythology, as the student reads more largely from the writings of Homer and the historians, tn the Sophomore and junior years, one term is given to the Oratory, one to the Tragedy and one to the Philosophy of the Greeks. The authors read the present year are Demosthenes, Sophocles and Plato. It is the especial aim in this latter study to place ourselves in the midst of that illustrious era of the past; to apprehend the style and logic of those masters of language; to enjoy their literature, to learn their laws and institutions, and to grasp the spirit and aims of Athenian life in its golden age. The system of pronunciation in use is the Continental.

arte JBenartmcnt of iLate'n. The preparatory work in Latin is designed to give thorough drill in the grammar of the language and training in translation by the use of the works of Cjesar, Cicero and Virgil. Translation of English prose into Latin is also continued through the whole Preparatory Course, In the Freshman year the essays of Cicero de Seneclute and de Amicitia are read, and in connection with these English derivatives from the Latin are studied. Selections from Livy are also read and accompanied by les­ sons in Roman History. In the winter term of the Sophomore year Tacitus'sGermania and Agricola (elective with Mechanics) are read, In the spring term of the same year selections from Juvenal's Satires are read and a study is made of the man­ ners and customs of Roman life. In the fall term of the Junior year, the Odes of Horace, selections from his Satires and Epistles, and the Ars Poetica are read. The Horatian Meters are studied in connection. In the spring term of this year Cicero de Natura Deoruin is read, and also Select Letters of Pliny (at sight). Ten terms of preparatory study are given to the Latin Language and Literature, and six terms of college study in the Classical and Literary Courses. In the Scientific Course the study in Latin is confined to the len terms of the preparatory years. Carleton College. 33

Reading at sight is taken up as early as is practicable, and continued in connection with the assigned lessons through most of the course. The aim is to impart such a mastery of the structure of the language as shall form a key to the study of other languages, both ancient and modern, to cultivate the power to discriminate fine shades of thought, and to express the same in fitting language; to bring the student into familiar acquaintance 1 some of the masterpieces of the world's literature,, and to give him an inside view of the life and thought of the ancient Roman civilization. The Roman system of pronunciation is employed.

EtjE Department of <£iig(isf). Instruction in Rhetoric and English Composition, as in other branches, embraces an elementary course for ^Preparatory and English students, and advanced course for those in the Collegiate department, and includes ;t-book study, lectures and practical exercises. Lessons, lectures and exercises in Elocution are given, embracing in­ struction in Vocal Gymnastics, Voice and Articulation, and Expression. A limited number of private lessons are given to those who can take them to advantage. Excepting private lessons, all instruction in this department is gratuitous. The students meet regularly for public exercises, consisting of debates, recitations, declamations and orations, under the direction of the teachers in charge of this department. The public rhetorical exercises of the Collegiate Division are held in the chapel, and are attended by all the students. A course in Elementary English Literature is given, consisting of the outline study of English Literature from Chaucer to Milton, and of the crit- study of Chaucer, Spencer, Shakespeare, Bacon and Milton. The His­ tory of the English Language is studied during one term. The study of Anglo-Saxon is pursued during one term by students in the Literary Course. The more extended course in Literature is designed to give a knowledge of the origin, development and present condition of English, American and Continental Literature, an acquaintance with literary master-pieces, and to cultivate the taste and the power of critical analysis. A text-book is used as a basis for the historical study, but most of the work is done by the study of the authors themselves, and hy the elaboration of topics by use of the college library. FIRST TERM.—Welsh's Development of English Literature, Analytic Study of Chaucer, Spencer, Elizabethan Dramatists, Bacon, Milton, Dry- den and Pope. Carleton College.

SECOND TERM.—Outline of English Prose Literature from the time of Pope. The New Poetry. English and American authors of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries. The course in general literature is designed to give a general view o Continental Literature, and especially a knowledge of Greek Literature tt those who have not studied Greek. General outline views of Latin, French and German Literature are given, and the master-pieces of Greek, Italian and Spanish Literature are critically studied by means of translations,

2T{)e B&pai'tment of ffioljcni ^Languages. The course in modern languages is designed to meet the practical wants of the students by securing fluency and correctness in speaking French and German, as the foundation for a thorough scientific knowla of these languages. A combination of the natural and scientific methods is used. French and German are made from the beginning to the end of the course the sole medium of class teaching, no English being spoken in the class-room, and no French or German lexicons being used. Grammar is introduced alter the first few lessons, rules and principles being given by the students in French or German. Accuracy is promoted by frequent composition of sentences and ess and by the recitation of poems .and anecdotes. Practice in speaking the language is also secured at the French German tables at the Boarding Hall.

Zp J3 enactments of (ttljemistrg, ^Si'Bfcs anS iHiiiecalogij. The Scientific Department, always a prominent one in the College, is now more complete in its organization and appointment than ever before. Williams Hall, erected especially for its use, contains a large laboratory, with all necessary modern appliances for chemical experiments and analy­ sis, chemical and physical lepture rooms, special rooms for balances, photo­ graphic work, apparatus, etc., and the rooms in which the cabinet is for the isent accommodated. The study of Chemistry is begun in the Freshman year and consists of the treatment of the elements of matter and of the laws of chemical com­ bination through the use of text book, lectures, and especially of the well- equipped chemical laboratory. Practical work in the laboratory is well cal­ culated to develop in the student habits of accurate and careful observation, and a practical skill in the use of apparatus. In the Sophomore year a thorough course in qualitative analysis is given, and a good foundation is laid for the further study of quantitative analysis, theoretical and practical photography, assaying, etc., for which ample facilities are furnished. The course in Physics includes the treatment, mathematically and ex­ perimentally, by means of lectures, recitations and illustrative apparatus, of subjects of molecular physics, mechanics, hydrostatics, pneumatics, acoustics, heat, optics, electricity and magnetism. The course in Mineralogy has in view the practical study of the struct- ; of crystals and the laws of their formation, and the study of the physi- 1 and chemical properties of minerals, with their determination by means of the blow-pipe. The cabinets of the College and the neighboring coun­ try furnish good opportunities for the practical study of this branch of physi­ cal science.

Cije Bcpartnunts of Biologji ant) ideology. The course in Biology begins in the fall of the Freshman year and is pursued during five terms in the Scientific course. The work of the first term is to give clear ideas regarding the fundamental properties of matter and of energy, and to apply these facts in a careful study of a representa­ tive animal and plant. The student is acquainted during this study with the use of the microscope and the preparation of objects for examina'tion. During the following winter, scientific students have a course in Human Anatomy and Physiology of sufficient scope and thoroughness to give a clear understanding of the laws of health and to serve as a basis for further study. Carleton College.

In the spring term, General Biology is resumed, and a full typical series of animals and plants is studied. This affords further practice in manipulation and gives a basis for later study of classification. In the spring term of the Sophomore year, a course in Botany is gi to all Collegiate students. After sufficient study of the gross anatomy of the flowering plants to familiarize the student with the terms used in flower analysis, the essential features of plant structure are carefully presented. Each primary group of plants is then taken up and illustrated. Zoology is offered in the fall term of the Junior year. The facts re­ garding animal structures already presented in General Biology and Hu­ man Anatomy are reviewed. Classification is then illustrated from the col­ lections, and tbe facts are enforced by a series of determinative analyses made by the student. In all the biological studies constant laboratory practice is given. Every effort is made to bring the facts at first hand to the student, and wherever possible the student prepares his own illustrative material. Geology is taught in all courses in the spring term of the Junior y A general view of the subject is given, with lectures upon topics of special importance. All the field work possible is done, and the students are en­ couraged to give time to it by the requirement of a collection of lithological and fossil specimens. The Biological Laboratory is thoroughly equipped for practical work in Zoology and Botany. Twenty-eight compound and fifteen dissecting micro scopes are in use. Each student is provided with a complete set of dissect' ing instruments, and the necessary reagents for the preparation of material for microscopical examination. One of the best modern section instruments has recently been added to the outfit. The library has received several im­ portant additions, and now contains many of the best Morphological and Systematic works. During the year the collections pertaining to these departments have been greatly increased by the acquirement of the collections of the late Prof. S. H. Trowbridge, of Glasgow, Mo. This collection", while covering the whole field of Biology and Geology, is especially rich in fossils. These are from all horizons and form a very complete typical series of American forms. Taken with the W. H. Dunning cabinet of fossils and the Ward series of casts, it affords ample materia! for illustration of Geology. The room hitherto occupied by the Library has been fitted up with cases for the reception of the collections. The whole museum has been re­ arranged and labeled, making an attractive and instructive display. Carleton College.

Cije Uepaimunt of i&atijnnatics ant) astironomj). The new Observatory will be completed and occupied in June, 1887. The building is 100 ft. by 80 ft. and it will afford superior advantages for both elementary and advanced study of Astronomy. The Repsold Meridian Circle is being mounted, and it is expected that a new Equatorial telescope of 16 inches clear aperture jjnd 21 feet focal length will soon be in place in the large observing-room of the new building. Two revolving domes of I, respectively 17 ft. and 30 ft. in diameter, made by Messrs. Warner Swasey, Cleveland, Ohio, are models of convenience and superior mechanism- During the past year, classes from neighboring schools and other visit- s in considerable numbers have been admitted as freely as circumstances mid permit; though the increase of regular work makes it important that ch visits should be previously arranged for, by correspondence or other-

INSTRUMENTS. The following instruments are in use: A Clark equatorial telescope, focal length \o}i feet, aperture "&% inches; a portable equatorial telescope, made by John Byrne, New York, aperture 4.3 inches; a Howard sidereal k; a Howard mean time clock; a Bond sidereal chronometer; a Fauth transit instrument, with telescope of 3 inches aperture; a Clark chrono­ graph; a fine spectroscope, with diffraction grating; meteorological appa- s, and a complete set of Johnson's large astronomical maps. Various other instruments needed will soon be added to the equipment. The Observatory is in telegraphic connection with Washington, and is placed on the list of the Smithsonian Institution for communication of astro- lical discoveries. Its exact geographical position is Lat. 44°, 27' 4o.77'/; Long. 1 hr., 4min., 23.8 sec. west of Washington. MATHEMATICAL LIBRARY. There is already a library of 1,300 volumes to aid in special study in mathematics and astronomy. It consists of standard works from the Bryant collection, with additional purchases, and the published observations and reports of the Washington and all other leading observatories. Mr. T. ight Townsend, of Pittsburgh, Pa., has loaned to the Observatory his library of rare and valuable works upon mathematics and kindred topics. TIME SIGNALS. The time of the Observatory is the standard for this State and parts of 'hose adjoining, and is given to the railroad companies at 10 o'clock A. M. nnd 9 o'clock p. M. daily by telegraph. These signals extend over a wide 1 traversed by about nine thousand miles of wire, simultaneously oper­ ating hundreds of sounders in the stores of jewelers and in telegraph offices. Carleton College.

Through local clocks these signals control electrical clocks and drop time- balls for railway and city uses wherever desired in any part of the north­ western time system belonging to Carleton College.

ADVANCED COURSE IN MATHEMATICS AND ASTRONOMY. In erecting an Astronomical Observatory the object was threefold; i. To give instruction for undergraduate students. 2. To offer opportunities fur a complete course of study in theoretical and practical astronomy. 3. To aid in original investigation. Our present facilities enable us to offer advanced students a special course of study in pure mathematics and practical astronomy. The follow­ ing is an outline statement of authors and topics : IN PURE MATHEMATICS.—Chauvenet's Plane and Spherical Trigonom­ etry; Howison's Analytical Geometry; Frost's Solid Geometry, including that of three dimensions; Olney's or Loomis's Calculus complete, with ad­ ditional reading from Price or Bertrand. Also an outline of Determinants, as introductory to Modern Algebra and Modern Geometry. ASTRONOMY.—A knowledge of Physics, French and German will be necessary to make the course complete. IN PHYSICAL ASTRONOMY.—Newcomb, Lockyer, Chambers, Proctor and Grant are important works. IN SPHERICAL AND THEORETICAL ASTRONOMY.—Loomis, Chauvi (two vols.), Bnmnow (French Ed.), Watson, Gauss, Oppolzer, are among the leading authors. Many special topics, treated only in the periodicals of the library and the publications of the Coast Survey will also be studied, few students are already pursuing the earlier part of this course. THE " SIDEREAL MESSENGER," a monthly review of Astronomy, is published by the Director of the Observatory, giving the latest news of tronomical discoveries, and discussions by leading astronomers in both Europe and America, upon topics of current interest in this department of science. It is entirely self-sustaining.

Minnesota ESUcatiitr a no Signal JDn'uier. The Director of the Observatory is also director of the Minnesota Weather and Signal Service, whose central station is in the Chamber of Com­ merce, St. Paul. The service has 60 flag and instrument stations in Minnesota and adjoining states, to which daily weather predictions are sent by tele­ graph by tbe generous co-operation of the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Mani­ toba, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, the Minneapolis & St. Louis Minnesota & Northwestern, and the Northern Pacific railway companies. Carleton College.

The last named company has ordered the signal service over all its line to the Pacific Ocean. Arrangemenls are being perfected to make the Minne­ sota Signal Service the source of daily weather predictions and the means of distributing the same to the entire Northwest. •

5T§e Bepavtmnit of ftlusir. A separate building is devoted to the exclusive use of this department under the direction of the teachers of Music. Instruction is given upon the piano nnd the pipe and reed organs; also in theory and in the cultivation of voice, chorus singing and notation. In each branch of musical study a systematic course will be pursued, the time required for the completion of ich will depend upon the ability of the pupil. All students completing the course in Theory and one other of the above named branches of music, are awarded diplomas by the College, provided they have presented to the Director satisfactory evidence of a good English education. To students taking but one branch or pursuing an elective course of study, a certificate of proficiency, showing their degree of attainment, will be given; but no diploma will he awarded unless the stu­ dent has been at least one year under the direction of the teachers of this department. THEORY. The course of study in Theory requires two years. FIRST TERM.—Keys, Scales and Signatures; intervals; study of tri- s; simple part writing begun.

The technical study of the above works will be supplemented by the study of sonatas, salon pieces, etc., by the best composers for the develop­ ment of musical taste and expression. PIPE ORGAN. Before entering upon the Study of this instrument the student should have at least one year's instruction on the piano, and should have a t ough knowledge of the rudiments of music. The course of instruction given on the pipe organ is as follows : Whiting's First Six Months on the Organ; Pedal Technics by Thayer and Volckmar; Ritter's Organ School; Rink's First and Second Books, Op. 55; Pedal Phrasing Studies by Buck; Rink's Third and Fourth Books; Fugues, Sonatas, Voluntaries and Organ Pieces by Bach, MendelsS' Hesse, Merkel, Volckmar, Ritter, Buck, Guilmant, Rheinberger and others. A large and exceptionally fine pipe organ of three manuals and thirty- eight stops has recently been placed in the Congregational church, to w music pupils may have access for lessons and practice.

CABINET OR REED ORGAN. Instruction is given on the cabinet or reed organ in technical execution, in playing church music, short voluntaries and all exercises intended to lit persons fully for the various uses of the instrument. An organ of twoi uals, two and a half octaves, with pedals and twenty stops, is at the posal of the students for practice and instruction. Instruction is also given upon the violin and the violoncello.

In Choral Singing two classes are formed, one for instruction in nota­ tion and sight reading, and one composed of the best musical talent in the college and city for tbe study of choruses of the great masters, for concerts and other public purposes. The terms for instruction in the various branches of music will be found under " Expenses," on pages 46 and 47. Payment must be made in advance ; and only in cases of severe illness of more than two weeks' duration cafi any deduction be made for absence from lessons. In such cases the Department will share the loss equally with the student. Students are expected to enter at the beginning of the term. Those entering during the first half of the term will pay full tuition; those enter­ ing during the last half, half tuition. Students will not be received for less than a term or the unexpired portion of the term. Students will take part in the weekly rehearsals, as they are qualified, and perform such pieces as may be assigned by their teachers, for the pur­ pose of giving them ease and self-control in public.

%i\ Instruction. Increasing attention is paid to this department, as an important branch of education. A room in Willis Hall is provided for its use, and competent instruction is given in painting, both in oil and water colors, and in pencil, charcoal and crayon drawing. Object drawing and drawing from the anti­ que is taught; and painting from nature is made a specialty by the more advanced pupils during the season of the year suitable to the work. During commencement week, some of the work done by pupils will be on exhibition. Carleton College.

anije a.i'l)cari>. The Library, including the Observatory Library of mathematics and astronomy, numbers 7,700 volumes. "The Heywood Library Fund," of $2,500, founded in honor of Joseph Lee Heywood, who, when treasurer of the College in September, 1876, suffered a violent death at the hands of bank robbers rather than be­ tray his trust; "The Charles Miner Boswell Memorial Library Fund," of $1,000, founded by Charles Boswell, Esq., of West Hartford, Conn., with nearly an equal amount contributed by the late Hon. S. N. Stockwell, of Boston, and others, are gifts the interest of which is expended in the pur­ chase of books.

The following prizes have been founded by friends of the College : THE PLYMOUTH PRIZES—Named from Plymouth Church, Minneapolis, offer the income from 5775, conditioned thus: "To be divided into two equal parts, to be awarded annAally, one-half in the Junior and one-half in the Freshman class, as prizes to such members of these classes as shall write, and in public debate deliver, tbe best arguments upon an appointed question; reference being had in the a ward both to the manner and the matter." In 1886 the awards were as follows: Junior Class—Laura Willard, of Chicago, 111., and Henry K. Wingate, of Minneapolis. Freshman Class—Frederick R. Clow and George H. Alden, both of Northfield. THE ATKINS PRIZE—Founded by Miss Harriet L. Atkins, of Beloit, Wis., offers annually the income from eighty dollars to that member of the Fresh­ man class who has passed the best examination for admission to the College. The prize was awarded in September, 18S6, to Frederick L. Kendall, of Dunstable, Mass. THE REEVE PRIZE—Founded in memory of Miss Minnie A. Reeve, late of Minneapolis, provides that the income from ,-5200 be given to that student who, not having been absent more than a half-term during the year, and being perfect in deportment, ranks highest ^scholarship at the close of the College year, The award in [886 was to Annie G. Allen, of Red Wing. THE FUND OF THE CLASS or '85—Consists of $200, the income from which is annually divided into two equal parts, to be given as a prize for the best declamation and the best essay by members of the Senior Preparatory class; the contestants being the four who rank highest as speakers and the Carleton College. four who rank highest as writers during the fall and winter terms preceding the contest. The award in 1886 was to Samuel H. Furber, of Cottage Grove, for the best declamation, and Marshall D. Snedicor, of Ithaca, Mich., for the

The following beneficiary funds have been established, the income from which is expended under the direction of the Faculty, in aid of deserving students; The "Boswell Scholarship Fund," of gio.ooo, founded by Charles Bos­ well, Esq., of West Hartford, Conn. The "Lydia M. Jewett Scholarship Fund," of ^4,000. especially for the benefit of the daughters of clergymen, preference being given to the daugh­ ters of Home Missionaries. The "John Scholarship Fund," of g 1,000, for the benefit of students preparing for the ministry. The "Jane S. Herring Scholarship Fund," of between 3700 and jSSoo, designed to aid in the education of young ladies; also another small fund for the same purpose. Other small amounts have been received for similar purposes. These gifts have been made very useful, and it is hoped that they will be contin­ ued. They are not designed to furnish entire support to any, but to aid those who are most deserving, and who are willing to help themselves. With the assistance thus received, no such student in ordinary good health need fail in his efforts to secure an education. The American College and Education Society aids worthy and perse­ vering young.men who are preparing for the ministry, to an amount not ex­ ceeding gioo per year. Applications for this aid should be made to the President of the College.

ISraminatioiis nut Begiees. The last days of each term are devoted to examinations. The attend­ ance of committees chosen annually by the Board of Trustees and the State Association is expected; and friends in general are cordially invited. Upon those completing the Classical, the Literary, or the Scientific course of study, are conferred respectively the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Literature, or Bachelor of Science. To those completing the English Academy Course, certificates are given. Graduates from the Clas- 44 Carleton College, sical, Literary or Scientific Course, who have taken a three years' course in some theological, medical, law, or other professional school, or have pursued an equivalent amount of study, and passed a satisfactory examination, may upon application receive the degree of Master of Arts, Master of Literature, or Master of Science.

Enteral Kegiilatiems. But few specific rules are announced, as all are expected to be exem­ plary in manners and morals, and each student is placed largely upon his own honor and personal responsibility. This is not designed to be a "re­ form school," and the attendance of those students only is desired who will make faithful use of the educational opportunities afforded. Those who are unwilling to do this, whose spirit is found to be antagonistic to the methods and work of the institution, or who fall below grade in scholarship, will dropped, whenever the general welfare may seem to require it, even though there may be no offense meriting suspension or expulsion. A student can enter at any time, but it is exceedingly desirable that all be present promptly at the beginning of each term, and remain until its close. Absence during term time, especially from examinations, is permit­ ted only for very urgent reasons. Strict observance of study-hours, and punctual attendance on all prescribed exercises, are required. Students regularly attend devotional exercises in the chapel, and public worship on the Sabbath at such church as they may designate. Intemperance, profanity, the use of tobacco in any form, playing at cards or billiards, and whatever hinders the highest mental or moral cul­ ture, or violates the courtesy due to fellow-students or instructors, are pro­ hibited. No one is allowed to visit the room of a student of the other sex, and all Sabbath and evening association between the sexes, except by special per­ mission, is prohibited. A record of the scholarship and deportment of each student is kept, and reported to parents or guardians at the close of each term. If such reports are not received within ten days of the close of tbe term, we should be glad to be informed of the fact.

Stuaents' j* one ties. Only those Societies are allowed whose Constitution and By-La* received the approval of the Faculty. Carleton College. 45

The Students' Christian Association was organized in 1874, to promote the religious welfare of the Institution. In 1879 the organization was so modified as to conform to that of the Young Men's Christian Association, and enable it to receive members not connected with the College. Its work, hoivever, continued to be largely sustained by the students. One daily and four weekly prayer meetings have been held under its direction ; and a pub­ lic reading room, formerly maintained by an independent organization, has been under its care. The enlargement of its membership, and of its field of usefulness has now made a division expedient, and a College Branch has been funned as a distinct organization. During the past year a Young Women's Christian Association has been organized on a similar basis. A Missionary Society, an auxiliary of the Woman's Board of Missions for the Interior, is sustained by the young ladies, and holds monthly meet­ ings for the study and. discussion of missionary subjects. Three Literary Societies, two composed of gentlemen and one of ladies, are maintained, affording their members valuable opportunities for improve­ ment in writing and extemporaneous speaking. Recitations, readings, de­ bates, criticisms, essays, orations and music occupy the regular weekly meetings; and occasionally public entertainments aud exhibitions are held in the College Chapel. Two of the societies have libraries numbering sev­ eral hundred volumes. The Naturalists' Club is an organization of students interested in Natu­ ral History. It purposes to explore the locality of Northfield for interesting specimens and dispose of the duplicates by exchange.

ilatncs' SEcnai'tiiiEiit. Ladies from abroad, excepting those who board themselves or live with near relatives, reside with their teachers at Gridley Hall, a building exclu­ sively appropriated to their use; but both sexes meet in all general exercises, are instructed in the same classes, enjoy the same privileges and may take the same degrees. The supervision of the Ladies' Department is committed to the Precept­ ress, who seeks to direct the formation of personal habits and deportment, and, by instruction, counsel, and wholesome regulations, to promote the physical, mental and moral welfare of those under her care. Parents are invited to make freely to her such communications as may be of service to her in this work, and thus aid her in securing the highest interests of their daughters. Carleton College.

43oatrj(ng B enactment. The Boarding Department, and the domestic affairs of the College fam­ ily at Gridley Hall are committed to the direction of the Matron, under the general supervision of the Executive Committee. It is designed so far as possible, to secure for every young lady entering the family the influence and privileges of a Christian home. All the lady teachers reside there, and hoard at the same table with the students. Gentlemen students who prefer to do so, may also take their meals at Gridley Hall. It is not designed to make the Boarding Department a source of profit to the College, but to fur­ nish to teachers and students good and acceptable board at the lowest prac­ ticable rate. Board bills are payable four weeks in advance.

OUTFIT. The rooms in Gridley Hall are furnished with chairs, tables, washstands, bureaus, lamps, mattresses, pillows, bedsteads and inside blinds, and are heated by steam. 863?" Bedding and carpet, if desired, must be supplied by the occupant. Boarders cannot be received before the Monday preceding the first day of each term.

,£elf=5iiRport. While no pledge is made to furnish manual labor to students, aid will gladly be given in finding employment in the city.
