THEOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT.
THE THEOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT is designed primarily to prepare young men for the Christian ministry. But since some who are qualifying themselves for chairs of instruction, or for Sabbath School or lay missionary work, desire the advantages of theological study, such persons also are received to its classes on the same general terms as others.
The conditions of admission to this Department are hopeful piety and a Col- legiate education, or its equivalent. Applicants are expected to bring a certificate of membership in some evangelical church. Students from other Theological Seminaries are admitted ad eundem on presenting a regular dismission; and persons may be admitted to advanced standing in any of the classes on satisfac- tory examination in the studies already pursued.
The Terms and Vacations are the same in all Departments of the Institution, and will be found in the Calendar.
Students in Theology incur no expense for tuition, for the use of the library, or of public rooms, or for any incidental purposes. Other expenses will vary according to the personal habits and tastes of each Student.
Aid is afforded by the American and the Ohio Education Societies to such Students as are preparing for the ministry. The Seminary has also a special fund for the aid of Students, from which several may receive a partial support.
The Preparatory Department furnishes opportunity for teaching, at reasonable compensation. Assistance may also be derived to some extent from the supply of vacant pulpits in the vicinity. With reasonable prudence and economy, any Student may pursue his course without serious interruption or embarrassment.
The Regular Course in this Seminary occupies three years, and the subjects of instruction are distributed as follows :
JUNIOR YEAR.
Hebrew-Elements and Exegesis ; Greek Harmony of the Gospels ; Natural Theology ; History ; Homiletics ; Elocution ; especial prominence being given to the departments of Greek and Hebrew Exegesis.
MIDDLE YEAR.
Revealed Theology ; Homiletics ; History ; Exegesis of Selections from the New Testa- ment with Lectures in Biblical Theology ; Exegesis of Selections from the Old Testament with Lectures on the Messianic Prophecies and Biblical Introduction ; Elocution ; especial prominence being given to the department of Systematic Theology.
55
OBERLIN COLLEGE.
SENIOR YEAR.
History and Positive Institutions ; Homiletics and Pastoral Theology ; Exegesis of Selections from the New Testament with Lectures; Exegesis of Selections from the Old Testament with Lectures ; Elocution ; especial prominence being given to the departments of Homiletics and History.
LECTURES.
Special courses of Lectures are provided for upon Prophecy. Modern Scepti- elsin, and Church Polity.
RHETORICAL EXERCISES, consisting of the reading of original essays, the delivery of original addresses, written and unwritten, and the extemporaneous discussion of questions, occur weekly, in which the members of all the classes participate in succession. Special prominence is given to extemporaneous speaking, or the delivery of thoughts prepared but not written and committed to memory. In addition to this, the several classes receive special training in Elocution, including lessons in the Development of the Voice and in expression.
SPECIAL COURSES.
These are designed for such as have not had the advantage of a classical education, and for good reasons cannot acquire it, and yet are plainly called to the work of the ministry. For this class of Students, various as they always will be in the character of their previous preparation, it is evident that no single course can be definitely shaped. Each candidate for this department of study Is examined with reference to his past acquisitions and present needs, and such a course is prescribed as best meets his particular case. Branches which he needs to pursue, belonging to the College courses, he is permitted to pursue with College classes and under the care of the College Professors. Every recitation room in the entire Institution is open, without charge for tuition, to such Students, and any branch of study in which they need instruction may be pursued-not by themselves with occasional assistance from a Professor, but In stimulating contact with large and enthusiastic classes. Thus they have the best possible advantages without adding to the burdens of the Theological Faculty. They may profitably attend all the lectures of the Seminary except those in Hebrew and Greek Exegesis. Those whose previous education qualifies them to pursue with profit and success the Regular Course, with the above exception, after devoting three full years to Theological Studies, will be permitted to graduate with the Students of the Regular Course. While pursuing their studies they will be regarded as members of the classes with which they meet in the Lecture Room, being designated only by the separate position of their names In the annual catalogue. Those who pursue two full years of Theological study will be entitled to a certificate which designates them as Special Course Graduates.

The members of this Department are subject to the same regu- lations as the students in the College. It is especially designed to prepare students for the College or Scientific Department ; but it is also adapted to meet the wants of those who require a good English education, for teaching Common Schools, or for general business. All the branches are taught in this Depart- ment, usually taught in High Schools and Academies. No students are admitted who have not advanced as far as Fractions in Arithmetic.
The Senior Preparatory Class is taught by members of the Faculty; the other classes by teachers selected from the Theological and higher College Classes.
A large portion of the Preparatory students are school teachers, or preparing to teach. The average age of the students in the Department is between nineteen and twenty years.
CLASSICAL COURSE.
To enter on this course, students will be examined in English Grammar through Syntax, Arithmetic through Percentage, and the Elements of Geogra- phy. Candidates for a higher standing will be examined in the studies previously pursued by the class to which they desire admission.
