Female Collegiate Institute.
This branch of Lawrence University is under the management of the same Corporate Board as the other departments, The young Ladies occupy a separate building, a little remote from the College, and are at all times under the immediate supervision of the Principal and Precep- tress, aided by competent and faithful assistants. The course of study has been arranged with reference to a thorough and systematic mental training. Rare facilities are also afforded for those who wish to pursue Music and the Ornamental branches, though those are not required for graduation.
The following Classical Course of Study will, in addition to the time necessary for a preparation, require a period of four years for its completion.
Ladies who choose can pursue the regular Classical Course for Gentlemen and graduate with the same honors.
An Elective Course may also be taken, made up of such studies as may be preferred, provided the applicant possesses the requisite abilities for the Class which she proposes to enter.
Classes in Ancient Languages, Mathematics and the Natural and Moral Sciences, are, for the most part, under the instruction of the College Professors.

.:
Books of Reference in the Department of Classics.
Zumpt's Latin Grammar. Kuhner's large Greek Grammar, Andrews' Latin Lexicon, Liddell & Scott's Greek Lexicon, Anthon's or Smith's Classical Dictionary, Manual of Classic- al Literature, Crusius' Homeric Lexicon, Sophocles' Greek Verbs, Munk's Greek and Roman Metres, Long's or Findlay's . Classical Atlas, Anthon's Manuals of Grecian and Roman An- tiquities, Dwight's Grecian and Roman Mythology, Ramshorn's Latin Synonyms, Histories of Greece and Rome.
Students in this Department are required in their daily re- citations carefully to construe and analyze Greek and Latin sentences, to point out the various relations and dependencies of words, and to apply the corresponding rules of Syntax. Thorough drilling in these particulars is deemed more impor- tant, both as it regards the student's mental discipline, and his acquaintance with the languages read, than the reading of any prescribed number of pages.
Another exercise of great importance is frequently required of students in this Department, which is : to trace Greek and Latin roots through their various English derivatives and com- ponnds, and to point out the process by which the present pop- ular meaning of such words has been deduced from the primary signification of the original. By these exercises, a more thor- ough acquaintance with English Etymology is obtained, and the student is also introduced to the important science of Compara- tive Philology.
All the exercises noticed in the above remarks, receive spe- cial attention in the Preparatory, as well as in the Collegiate Classes.
In the earlier parts of the course in Latin and Greek, almost
14
LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY.
constant use is made of the blackboard for exhibiting the forms of words, and rendering the student familiar with them.
The writing of translations from English into Greek and Lat- in, with special attention to peculiarities of idiom, is made an important exercise during the greater part of the course. Lit- eral translations-compared frequently with approved English modes of expression -- are usually insisted upon, as affording the most satisfactory test of the student's reliance upon his own ef- forts ; as leading him most directly to a critical appreciation of the peculiarities in idiom and style, of the classical languages; as enabling him most clearly to perceive the force and beauty of expression which characterize those languages; and as in- troducing him, more than any other method, to an acquaintance with the general philosophy of language.
We have no fear that this method, taken as it is in connec- tion with frequent composition and other rhetorical exercises in English, will exert any injurious influence upon the student's use of his vernacular tongue. On the contrary, it is, we be- lieve, best calculated to improve the English style in copious- ness, strength and finish.
