THE UNIVERSITY

INSTRUCTION FOR ADVANCED AND GRADUATE STUDENTS
BY THE TWO FACULTIES.

BOSTON UNIVERSITY

T

HE name and location of Boston University predetermined its character. Established in the heart of the literary metropolis of America, it could meet the just expectations of the public only by organising as a metropolitan university of the most advanced and comprehensive type. Its founders believed, with rare earnestness, that the highest of all educational ideals are the distinctively Christian, and that the distinctively Christian ideals, instead of isolating individuals or segregating classes, associate men and women in school, as in home and state and church. Accordingly they had the honor of organising the first university ever planned from the start and throughout with no individual disabilities or class discriminations on the ground of race, nationality, sex, or other heredity. As an expression of their faith, they gave to it at the start more than one and a half millions of dollars. They at once instituted a reform in professional training.

The University was the first in the United States to present in Theology, Law and Medicine uniform graded courses of instruction covering three scholastic years, and to require in each the full three years of study. It was also the first to establish a four-years' course in Medicine, and to reinstate the long-lost baccalaureate degrees in Medicine and Surgery. Its advanced standards and broad principles soon gave it a larger number of students in its three professional schools than were found in any other American university. They also attracted wide attention and interest in Europe. The National University at Athens and the Royal University at Rome, both newly reorganised on exceptionally liberal bases, entered into special agreements with the Boston institution for mutual co-operation. In this way the University gave an important impulse to the movement which later resulted in the establishment of an American School of Archæology in Athens, and, later still, one in Rome. See Thirteenth Annnal Report of the University, pp. 5-17.

More than four thousand have already been graduated at the University, and among their names may be found those of eminent senators, governors, bishops and judges; metropolitan pastors, lawyers and physicians; editors and authors; founders of missions, college professors and presidents of universities, American and foreign. At the time of the annexation of the Hawaiian Republic four Boston University graduates were in the Islands, and of these one was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, another a Judge in the Supreme Court, the third the Deputy Attorney-General of the Republic, and the Fourth its Chief Marshal. Shortly after, another, residing in China, was called to the presidency of the Imperial University of Nankin. At the same date, as before and since, the gracious lady presiding in the American Legation in Berlin, Germany, was another graduate, the first American woman that ever won the rank of a Doctor of Philosophy.

Not an honorary degree has ever been conferred by the University. Persons desiring further information as to its history and its metropolitan advantages are invited to address

UFTS College is one of the larger collegiate institutions and is distinguished for the broadness of the opportunities its courses afford for general and technical education. It received its name in honor of the donor of its site, Charles Tufts, but others aided generously in its founding and subsequent endowment. The scope of the College was broadened by the addition of scientific courses, technical and professional schools, and in 1892 the College was opened, in all its departments, to women on the same terms as to men. The College is governed by a Board of Trustees and a Board of Overseers.
