SCIENTIFIC COURSE/
CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION.
The conditions of admission are the same as for the Classical!
Course, except that Latin is not required, although a sufficient
knowledge of the construction to read easy Latin Prose is earnestly
recommended. It is also very desirable that all applicants for admission should have had at least one year's instruction in Free-hand
Linear Drawing.
COURSE OF STUDY.
There are no Elective Studies in the first two years of this course..
In the Junior and Senior years students may elect either all ChemiWhile
cal or all Engineering studies, or from both departments.
full courses in professional studies are thus provided for, it will be
seen that care has been taken to secure general culture.^ and not tomake of students of this course merely chemists or engineers.

The department is also open to those students of maturer age
whose time is limited, and who wish to prepare themselves for
positions requiring a knowledge of Chemistry.

these advantages are persons of limited means, and as the College
cannot fail to be greatly benefitted by bringing into it a class of stu-
dents whose earnestness and devotion to their work will exercise a
powerful influence for good upon their fellow students, the Endowment Committee has admitted a number at the rate of ^i^o a year.
The Managers believe that the College will be the gainer in every
sense by continuing to pursue this liberal policy.
That we may be
able to extend this privilege to a larger number of teachers, we
earnestly hope that we shall soon have a large accession to our
Endowment Fund. In no other way can Friends do more at this
time to advance the cause of solid, practical education.
In the Normal course, lectures will be given on the Theorv and
Practice of Teaching, and students will be furnished an opportunity
to obtain practical experience in their work under the immediate and
constant direction of competent and experienced Professors.
For
this purpose the classes of the Preparatory School will be used
as Practice Classes.
In these the instruction given is so constantly
under the direction of skilled Professors that while the voung
teachers are acquiring valuable experience the children are more
thoroughly trained and taught.
The rooms de\'oted to the use of the Practice Classes ha\e been
refurnished and carpeted, that the quiet and order may be readily
secured which is so essential to the success of teachers in their
earlier experience.
As thoroughness is aimed at, and large experience in the actual work of teaching is to be gi\'en, the number
admitted to the Normal class will be limited to forty.
It is proposed to give the following Diploma and Certificates
The Normal Diploma is given only to students who are
graduates of Swarthmore College, and who have had three years'
instruction and practice in the Normal department or the full equivThe last year of the course, at least, must have

been taken at Swarthmore.
Students receiving the Diploma must
also have shown an especial aptness to teach and power to govern.
The First Certificate is gi\en to students who have completed,
creditably, at least one year's study in either the Sophomore, Junior
or Senior class, and have had two years' training in a Normal course,
the last of which must ha\e been at Swarthmore ; and whose aptness to teach and power to govern ha\e been clearly shown by
experience in the class-room.

will much more than compensate for the time required by the

With few exceptions the departments are under the management

been kept informed of the character of the work done, which continues to be increasingly satisfactory, not only to the Managers, but

Our Library has been steadily increased by the addition of such
works as have been especially needed for reference in the different
departments of instruction, and by thus adding works as their need
is felt, and as fast as they are needed, it is becoming a Library of
great practical value to the College.
No new buildings have been erected upon the College grounds
during the past year, but an impetus has been given to improvement
in the immediate neighborhood by the erection of several houses on
the adjoining property, among which are those of our Superintendent
and of our Professor of Civil Engineering.
By a change in the
direction of the road in front of the College, a great improvement
will be made in the appearance of the grounds.

he remembered by those of the Stockholders who were
of the College, that it was
a leading idea of its founders that it should be not merely an Institution for the intellectual training of the young, but also a cultivated
home, where they would be surrounded by the highest social, moral
and religious influences, which, in a good measure, should
compensate for the loss sustained in leaving the care of their
parents.
The Managers feel* that the authorities at the College, to
whom they have entrusted its immediate care, have been impressed
with the necessity of securing this desirable end, and tha.t their
attention has been increasingly directed to its importance year by
year.
To co-education, as a part of this social system, and as the
settled and satisfactory policy of the College, we largely attribute

the successful results attained.
It is earnestly hoped that all who are interested in the welfare of
the College, or of our Religious Society under whose care it is
placed by the Charter, will visit it frequently, thus keeping familiar
with its practical working, and see for themselves the good which,
through the moral and religious influence of its home life, as well as
by means of its intellectual culture, it is doing for the rising generation of Friends, and of others entrusted to our care.
The attention of the Stockholders is called to the new catalogue
of the College, which will be ready in a (ew days.
It embraces the
various improvements referred to in the courses of study, and in
other respects.
This catalogue will be mailed to all Stockholders
whose addresses are in the possession of the College authorities.
Since our last report, a legacy of five thousand dollars has been
received from the executors of Anson Lapham.
The Board has heretofore reported the condition of the treasury
on the first of the Twelfth month, which necessarily included the
largest amount of thq. receipts for the current school year, and
embraced only three months' expenses.
The annexed Treasurer's account includes only the receipts and
expenses for the scholastic year, ending Eighth month ist, 1878, and
is more fully itemized than usual.
It will give a better idea of the
financial working of the College, and enable an intelligent comparison to be made with future years.
