The announcements of courses for 1897-98 in all the departments are now posted in the south entry of University. Including those which have already been announced, over eighteen entirely new courses and half-courses are to be given next year. A number of others have been very much changed and a few courses given hitherto are to be omitted. Among the most important of the new courses are: French 7 and 7, two half-courses on Victor Hugo and the Romanticist movement, to be given by Assistant Professor de Sumichrast; German 5a, a half-course on the literature of the nineteenth century, to be given by Dr. Nichols; History 16, a course on the constitutional and political history of Germany (1356-1897), to be given by Professor Hart; three new courses in the architectural department, in drawing, in building construction, and in practice in modelling; two new half courses in geology, one in meteorology, the other in elementary Physiography; Philosophy 8, a half course on Kant, to be given by Professor James; and Hygiene 10, a half course on general hygiene to be given by Assistant Professor Fitz. In place of his half course on the Social and Political Tendencies in German Literature, Professor Francke is to give two half courses, on the German Romantic Movement from Tieck to Heine, and on the German Drama since 1848. Philosophy I is to be given in the future as two whole courses. One will be Philosophy 1a, Logic, the first half-year, by Professor Palmer; Psychology, the second half-year, by Professor Munsterberg. The other will be Philosophy 1b, History of Philosophy, by Professor Royce. Both courses are to be thrown open to Freshmen. Professor Norton will give the whole of Fine Arts 3.
