The final announcement of courses of instruction for next year has been published and may be obtained today at University 2. This announcement is as full and exact as it can now be made. Some changes may later be found necessary; some courses may be dropped because they are not taken by a sufficient number of students or for other reasons and some additional courses may be provided, but such changes are not likely to be numerous. One feature of the new announcement is the calendar for next year, which is here published for the first time.
A number of changes in courses have been made since the appearance of the provisional announcement two months ago. In the department of the Classics Professor Gulick will give Greek 8, while Mr. J. A. K. Thomson will take his place in giving Greek 7. Mr. Thomson will also give Greek 6, in place of Professor Post, who will take one of the sections in Latin B. Professor E. K. Rand will give Latin 3. Mr. Thomson will also take the place of Professor Rand in Latin 7 and of Professor Gulick in Classical Philosophy 27, which will be made a half-course in the first half-year. Classical Philosophy 22 and 32 will be withdrawn. Latin 15, 11, and 12 will be placed in examination groups II, V, and XIII, respectively. The following examination groups are announced for the courses in Classical Philology: Course 43, XII; course 44, III; course 27, II; course 24, IV; course 67, XII; course 61, VII; course 34, XI; course 49, II; course 76, V.
Changes in English Department.
In the English Department, courses 32 and 25b are both divided into two half-courses, given in the first and second half-years respectively. Professor Lake will give English 35a, while Professor Ropes will give English 35b. English 11b, Milton, will not be omitted, as previously announced, but will be given by Professor K. G. T. Webster.
Prof. Francke May Retire.
Many changes will be necessitated in the German Department in case of the retirement of Professor Francke. As it is probable that Professor Francke will at least not continue all his courses next year, his name has been left out of the pamphlet, though most of the courses have been announced unchanged. The only other important change in this department is the modification of German 2c, making the course follow courses 2a and 2b, instead of being parallel to them. It will hereafter be known as German 5. German 28 has been made a half-course in the first half-year.
In the French Department the only changes are due to the return from France of Mr. Mercier. He will give French 4 and 5, as well as assisting in other courses.
In the Fine Arts, course 1b hf. will be omitted on account of the absence of Mr. Mower. Other instructors will also take the place of Mr. Mower in Fine Arts 1a, 2a, 2b, and 2c.
In the second group there will be very few changes. History of Science 2hf. will be a new course given by Dr. Sarton. Professor H. N. Davis will take entire charge of Physics 8b hf. Astronomy 2b hf. will be transferred to the first half-year. Chemistry 23 hf., Fire Assaying, will take the place of Chemistry 21 hf., which will be withdrawn. Geography 3 and 11 will be withdrawn.
New Courses in History.
In the third group History 60, the history of Argentina and Chile, will be a new course, given by Dr. Klein. History 56 and 57 will be given in the first and second half-years, respectively. History A4 will be withdrawn. Government 24 and 27, by Professor Dupriez of the University of Louvain, will be withdrawn, and in their place Professor Dupriez will give a series of new courses on the Government and Administration of Switzerland, European Electoral Systems, Centralized Administration, and the Budget System of Great Britain. These courses will be known as Government 25, 29, 26, and 28. Government 6a hf. will be transferred to the group open to undergraduates and graduates and will be given by Mr. Laski. Economics 17 will be made a full course. Social Ethics 20c will be withdrawn.
In the department of education great changes will be necessary on account of the departure of Professor Ernest C. Moore. The courses which he was to give are Education 1, 5, 10 and 20e. It has not yet been announced who will take his place. Education 7 will be transferred to the first half-year, while Education 4 will be moved back to the second half-year. The former be given by Dr. J. M. Brewer.
Chicagonian Exchange Professor.
In the fourth group a number of changes will be made. The Department of Philosophy will be strengthened by the presence of Professor Addison W. Moore of the University of Chicago. He will give Philosophy B and Philosophy 18c, a new course on the Pragmatic Movement in Philosophy. Philosophy 12a hf. will be omitted, and Dr. Fuller will give Philosophy 12 and Philosophy 14b, the latter being transferred to the second half-year. Philosophy 19b and 20b will each be divided into two half-courses. Philosophy 20g will be withdrawn. Numerous changes will also be made in instructors and examination groups in the Mathematics Department.
