Among the first suggestions that President McVey made to the faculty upon assuming the duties of office was one looking toward the establishment by the institution of a high grade periodical, scientific and literary in character, that should serve both as a medium of exchange between this institution and others and also a channel through which the members of the instructional force might give to the public some of the results of their investigations, their discoveries and their matured thought. The matter was most carefully considered and resulted in a recommendation to the board of trustees that such action be taken. The trustees acted favorably and the Quarterly Journal was established, the first number bearing the date, October, 1910. The publication has met with much local favor and received a warm welcome from the scholarly world.

EARLY HISTORY OF NORTH DAKOTA
The grouping of colleges, departments and courses having a common purpose, a notice of which first appeared in the catalogue issued in 1910, has served to unify and strengthen much that would otherwise be less efficient in a general uni- versity plan. The Division of Medicine, which has included the College of Medicine, established in 1905, and the Public Health Laboratory, established in 1907, was increased by the addition of a course for the training of nurses, under an efficient director. Similarly, the two colleges of Mining Engineering and Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, with the Course in Civil Engineering, were first grouped under the Division of Engineering. By a recent action of the present Board of Regents, all the engineering work of the University has been brought under one head. Dean E. J. Babcock will have direction of the College of Engi- neering. The Division of Education included the Teachers College and the Model High School. Teachers College, established in 1905, is the development of the old normal college which dated from the establishment of the university in 1883, while the Model High School is the old preparatory department retained as a lab- oratory for Teachers College. In 1911 the name "Teachers College" was changed to "School of Education," in conformity to the re-organization which makes it practically a professional school.
The Law School, established in 1889, is rapidly becoming a very potent factor in the development of the institution, and of the state itself as well. The entrance requirements have been gradually raised and the course of instruction enlarged and enriched until, beginnig with 1909-1910, a full three years professional course, resting upon graduation from a four year high school course, was required for the law degree. Beginning with 1917, two years of college work will be a pre- requisite for entrance.
The influence of a body of mature graduates, such as the Law School has been sending out, has been out of all proportion to their numbers; and, in view of the fact that a relatively large portion of the state is still receiving the perma- nent and stable elements of its population, especially of the professional and busi- ness class, the importance of the Law School as a formative influence in our new state can hardly be overestimated.
The student body, likewise, is becoming better organized. The Women's League, organized in 1906, and the Men's Union, in 1910, have already done good service and give promise of great usefulness in the years to come. The Men's Union was last year combined, by student vote, with the Y. M. C. A. The arrangement, though temporary, may become a permanent one ultimately. The new gymnasium, opened in 1908, gives ample accommodation for in-door sports and training for out-door events. In 1910 the trustees purchased the twenty acres on the east side of the campus, and here there has been prepared a permanent athletic field, large enough to accommodate the growing student body for many years to come.
For many years a summer school has been maintained at the university, mainly for the preparation of teachers for the rural schools. In this work the State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the county superintendents of nearby counties co-operated, the university merely furnishing the buildings and general equipment. There seemed, however, to be a growing demand for opportunities to do more advanced work which was met by establishing, in 1910, a university summer session. This extension of university work has been so well received that practically the entire equipment of the university is now available for use through-
575
EARLY HISTORY OF NORTH DAKOTA
out the year. The enrollment of the summer session has steadily increased. This is but one of the many things that the present management is doing to make the insti- tution serve the state in every possible way. It is but one indication that we have caught the spirit of service so clearly in evidence throughout the length and breadth of the land.
Another feature of university work that has been pushed very vigorously dur- ing the past few years is that of the library. The regular library staff consists of five members with a number of student assistants. The card catalogue titles now number about 100,000, and, in addition to making it as useful as possible to students and members of the faculty on the grounds, every effort is being put forth to make it available to those outside of the university. This is done by the preparation of a list of subjects for debates and accompanying bibliographies for the high schools, by the loaning of such books as are needed for work in corre- spondence courses or the study of any special subject by local clubs or literary organizations, and by securing for temporary use in the university library by special loans such books as are to be found only in the larger libraries of the coun- try. In this way the university has become a reference library and center of gen- eral information along literary lines for a circle of readers as wide as the state.
With the opening of the Public Health Laboratory on July 1, 1907, the univer- sity entered upon a new field of public service, that of the prolongation of the hu- man life, the prevention of disease, and the co-operation with all the regular agen- cies of society in the improvement of public health. So efficient has this work of the university proved to be, that two branch laboratories were established in 1910, at Minot and Bismarck. Among the many problems considered, two of immediate and vital importance to the citizens of the state continue to be the subject of re- search at the Public Health Laboratory, the purification of the water supply for city populations, and a sanitary method of sewage disposal adapted to climate of ex- tremes, such as is experienced in our state. Important reports covering valuable investigations have already been made and there are still others soon to appear, of equal importance. Other problems of public health have been dealt with effectively by the laboratory. Dr. L. D. Bristol has for the past two years carried on the work which was so well begun by Dr. G. F. Ruediger.
The most important single university exercise of the week is Convocation, which has developed out of the daily morning chapel exercises of early years. Convocation is the weekly gathering of faculty, students and townspeople at the Gymnasium to hear some lecturer of note, or some local speaker, on a topic of general interest. Within the last two years it has become specially significant as furnishing one of the principal means for the transmission to the general university body of the current thought in the larger world outside their immediate circle.
Among all the numerous means for securing a wider scope for university activity, none are more significant than those grouped under the Extension Divi- sion, created in 1910. President McVey developed the two most important fea- tures of this department as a means of meeting a growing need throughout the state, and also to utilize more effectively our accumulated resources, which were at the disposal of the public whenever the adequate means should be provided for their distribution. Correspondence courses and extension lectures are proving as in other institutions, the best means for reaching the larger university body throughout the state. Much remains to be done in perfecting the machinery of
576
EARLY HISTORY OF NORTH DAKOTA
this department. President McVey has helped to pioneer the movement through its initial stages, and, as the lecturer most widely in demand, has disseminated the ideas of university service among all classes and in every part of the state. The division was for two years in charge of Mr. J. J. Pettijohn. Dr. F. C. English was director during the year 1914-15. At the beginning of the school year 1915-16, the division was reorganized and the work placed under two bureaus, the Bureau of Educational Co-operation and the Bureau of Public Information, a secretary being placed in charge of each bureau. The Bureau of Public Information rep- resents a new phase of extension service in North Dakota in its work of publicity and the general spread of public information along various lines. The Bureau of Educational Co-operation carries on the older branches of the extension service, the correspondence Study Courses, and the university lecture and lyceum courses.
No summary of the university's work is in any way complete without a word as to President McVey and his administration. Since he came to the university, there has been a noticeable awakening in all lines of university service. The stand- ards of scholarship have been raised. The Extension Division is but one manifes- tation of the new conception of the State University, the institution which really stands for state-wide service and which is not simply a "Campus school." For the acceptance of this large idea in education as a working thing in North Dakota, Dr. McVey is very largely responsible. The president has won for the university a very important place in the hearts of North Dakota people. Through a number of the university's achievements, he has increased the interest of educators in the University of North Dakota, which, catching the best inspiration in college circles, has yet found for itself rather unique fields of service.
