In the City of New York Columbia University includes both a college and a university in the strict sense of the words. The college is Columbia College, founded in 1754 as King's College. The university consists of the Faculties of Law, Medicine, Philosophy, Political Science, Pure Science, and Applied Science. The point of contact between the college and the university is the senior year of the college, during which year students in the college pursue their studies, with the consent of the college faculty, under one or more of the faculties of the university. Barnard College, a college for women, is financially a separate corporation; but, educationally, is a part of the system of Columbia University. Teachers College, a professional school for teachers, is also, financially, a separate corporation; and also, educationally, a part of the system of Columbia University. Each college and school is under the charge of its own faculty, except that the Schools of Mines, Chemistry, Engineering, and Architecture are all under the charge of the Faculty of Applied Science. For the care and advancement of the general interests of the university educational system, as a whole, a Council has been established, which is representative of all the corporations concerned. I. THE COLLEGES Columbia College offers for men a course of four years, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Candidates for admission to the college must be at least fifteen years of age, and pass an examination on prescribed subjects, the particulars concerning which may be found in the annual Circular of Information. Barnard College, founded in 1889, offers for women a course of four years, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Candidates for admission to the college must be at least fifteen years of age, and pass an examination on prescribed subjects, the particulars concerning which may be found in the annual Circular of Information. II. THE UNIVERSITY In a technical sense, the Faculties of Law, Medicine, Philosophy, Political Science, Pure Science, and Applied Science, taken together, constitute the university. These faculties offer advanced courses of study and investigation, respectively, in (a) private or munici pal law, (b) medicine, (c) philosophy, philology, and letters, (d) history, economics, and public law, (e) mathematics and natural science, and (f) applied science. Courses of study under all of these faculties are open to members of the senior class in Columbia College. Certain courses under the non-professional faculties are open to women who have taken the first degree. These courses lead, through the Bachelor's degree, to the university degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy. The degree of Master of Laws is also conferred for advanced work in law done under the Faculties of Law and Political Science together. III. THE PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS The Faculties of Law, Medicine, and Applied Science conduct respectively the professional schools of Law, Medicine, and Mines, Chemistry, Engineering, and Architecture, to which students are admitted as candidates for pro fessional degrees on terms prescribed by the faculties concerned. The faculty of Teachers College conducts professional courses for teachers that lead to a diploma of the university. 1. The SCHOOL OF LAW, established in 1858, offers a course of three years, in the principles and practice of private and public law, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Laws. 2. The COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS, founded in 1807, offers a course of four years, in the principles and practice of medicine and surgery, leading to the degree of Doctor of Medicine. 3. The SCHOOL OF MINES, established in 1864, offers courses of study, each of four years, leading to a professional degree, in mining, engineering, and in metallurgy. 4. The SCHOOLS OF CHEMISTRY, ENGINEERING, AND ARCHITECTURE, set off from the School of Mines in 1896, offer, respectively, courses of study, each of four years, leading to an appropriate professional degree, in analytical and applied chemistry, in civil, sanitary, electrical, and mechanical engineering; and in architecture. 5. TEACHERS COLLEGE, founded in 1888 and chartered in 1889, was included in the university in 1898. It offers the following course of study: (a) graduate courses leading to the Master's and Doctor's diplomas in the several departments of the College; (b) professional courses, each of two years, leading to the Bachelor's diploma for Secondary Teaching, Elementary Teaching, Kindergarten, Domestic Art, Domestic Science, Fine Arts, Music, and Manual Training; (c) a collegiate course of two years, which, if followed by a two-year professional course, leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science. Certain of its courses may be taken, without extra charge, by students of the university in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, and Doctor of Philosophy.

NOTES ON CHILD STUDY By EDWARD L. THORNDIKE, Ph. D., Adjunct Professor of Psychology, Teachers College, Columbia University. vii+157 p. $1.00. These Notes are intended to supply students of the mental and physical development of children with a convenient and concise account of those facts which are practically important in connection with school work. These Notes might properly be made a part of the work of a course in genetic psychology or general methods of teaching, or used as a reference book by students of either psychology or education. The volume constitutes a scientific and convenient account of the established results of the recent studies of childhood. VOL. IX NO. 1. THE MENTAL LIFE OF THE MONKEYS By EDWARD L. THORNDIKE, Ph. D., Adjunct Professor of Psychology, Teachers College, Columbia University. iv+57 p. 50 cents. In this monograph the author describes experiments on monkeys made in continuation of his investigations on animal intelligence, published as Vol. IV., No. 3 of this series. Like the lower mammals, monkeys do not learn by making inferences by imitation or by being shown how to do things. They, however, surpass dogs and cats and approach men in their focalized vision, in their motor equipment, in their fund of inherited nervous connections, in their constant activity, and in the complexity and delicacy of the associations they form. VOL. IX, NO. 2. THE CORRELATION OF MENTAL AND PHYSICAL TESTS. By CLARK WISSLER, Ph. D., Sometime Assistant in Psychology, Columbia University. iv+62 p. 50 cents. This number, accepted as a thesis for the degree of doctor of philosophy by the Faculty of Philosophy, describes the tests made on Freshmen entering Columbia and Barnard Colleges and on the same students as Seniors. The different tests, mental and physical, are correlated with each other and with the class standing of the student: for example, inquiry is made as to whether a student with a good memory is more likely than others to have a large head, to be quick in movement, or to stand high in his class work.
