ample. It is believed, too, that students will receive much instruc
tion, as well as enjoyment and benefit, from the close personal
intercourse which it is an object to the School to cultivate between
graduates and the members of the philosophical faculty. Students
taking the graduate courses are in this way very effectively trained
for the work of teaching ; and it may be mentioned that most of the
men who have completed their courses, have received appointments
as instructors or professors of philosophy in different parts of the
country.
Bracketed courses are not given in 1899-1900.
The courses in philosophy are designed for sophomores, juniors,

This course is intended as a general introduction to the study of
Philosophy through its central disciplines. The course, or its equiva
lent, is required of all those who propose to take work in Philosophy
during
their junior and senior year.
In the fall term the class meets for lectures on Psychology by Pro
fessor Titchener, whose aim is at once to give an outline of what is
established in the subject, and to remove obstacles from the path of
beginners in mental science. Students who intend to enter upon
this course are advised to take work in Physiology during their
freshman year. The lectures will be supplemented by experimental
illustrations, and Titchener's Outline of Psychology used as a text
book in the course.
