Prospectus.


St. Ignatius College was erected in 1869 for the higher education of the Catholic youth of Chicago and vicinity. It is conducted by Fathers of the Society of Jesus. A charter was granted to the Institution by the Legislature of the State of Illinois, June 30th, 1870, with power to confer the usual degrees in the various faculties of a University.


The studies pursued in the College comprise the Doctrines and Evidences of the Catholic Religion, Logic, Metaphysics, Ethics, Astron- omy, Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, Mathematics, Rhetoric, Composition, Elocution, History, Geography, Book-keeping, Arithmetic, the Latin, Greek, English, German and French Languages and Literature.


The College is intended for day scholars only. The Collegiate year is divided into two terms, the first beginning on the first Monday of September, the second on the first Monday of February. Students, how- ever. are received at any time during the year. At the close of each term the several classes are subjected to a thorough examination in the branches studied during the previous half year. The Annual Commencement is held on the last Wednesday in June, when degrees are conferred and premiums awarded.


On completing the studies of the Collegiate Department, those who prove deserving of the distinction receive the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Subsequently, by devoting one year more to the study of Philosophy, or two years to any of the learned professions, they may obtain the degree of Master of Arts, if the Board of Managers be satisfied with their pro- ficiency and moral conduct.


Several times during the year, in the presence of the Faculty and students, badges of distinction for proficiency, and testimonials of good conduct and diligence, are bestowed upon the most deserving.


10


CATALOGUE OF ST. IGNATIUS COLLEGE.


When a pupil presents himself for admission he is examined by the Prefect of Studies and placed in the class for which his previous attain- ments have qualified him. If he comes from another Institution he is required to bring satisfactory testimonials.


Students may be promoted during the year, when, by successful efforts, they have fitted themselves for a higher class, and such promo- tion is held to be equivalent to the honors of the previous class.


Bulletins are sent every second month to the parents or guardians to inform them of the deportment, diligence, proficiency and attendance of their sons or wards.


The hours of attendance are from 8.30 A. M. to 3 P. M., with recesses at convenient times, and an intermission of an hour at noon. Pupils arriving at the College before 8.30 o'clock devote the interval to private study.


The Catholic students are carefully instructed in the doctrines and practices of their holy religion, and the most solicitous attention is paid to the morals of all. Whilst upon the College premises, the pupils are constantly under the watchful care of one or more of the Prefects or Professors.


Though the government of the Institution is mild rather than severe, yet, for the maintaining of order and discipline, without which good results are not attainable, strict obedience, assiduous application and blameless conduct are required of every student. Any serious neglect of these essential points renders the offender liable to effective correction and even to dismission.


As the progress of the students greatly depends on their regular attendance at school, they should never be kept from their respective classes, except for grave reasons; and their private studies, to which two or three hours ought to be devoted daily at home, should be watched over by parents or guardians with great solicitude .* In case of absence, a satisfactory note from the parents or guardians is invariably required. Too frequent absence, except in case of sickness, is sufficient cause for dismission.


Due notice should be given when a student is to be withdrawn from the Institution.


* Special attention is called to this point, and parents are requested to co-operate with the Professors, not only by showing that they appreciate the efforts of their children, but also by encouraging them in every manner possible,

Course of Instruction.


THE CLASSICAL COURSE.


The Classical Course is designed to impart a thorough liberal educa- tion. In the accomplishment of this purpose the ancient classics hold the first place as the most efficient instrument of mental discipline. Besides Latin, Greek and English, the Course embraces Religious Instruc- tion, Mental and Moral Philosophy, Astronomy and Mathematics, History, Literature, the Natural Sciences-in a word, all the usual branches of a complete education. It has been found by long experience that this is the only Course which fully develops all the faculties, forms a correct taste, teaches the student how to use all his powers to the best advantage, and prepares him to excel in any pursuit, whether professional or commercial.


The Course is divided into two departments, Collegiate and Academic.
