and the book of Daniel are s tudi ed. I", the Sophomore, Matthew and
Joh n's Gospels, and the Epis tles to the Romans, Galatians and Hebrews.
The teaching is by lectures, embracing critical examination of the text, the
discussion of the chronology, history, poetry, prophecy and morality of the
Bible. the classes at regular times being required to ask and answer such
questions as will assure a proper understanding of the study.
In the Senior year, lectures are delivered on the evidences of Christianity,
which embrace not only the general questions of New Testament truth, but
also the discussion of so-called " modern scepticism" resting, or supposed
to rest, upon modern science. This course of lectures, as we1l, indeed, as
the whole Biblical course, will be fou nd specially beneficial to tilOse young
men who intend to enter the ministry, as also to those who have already
done so, but have not fully acquainted themselves with these subjects.

: ORDER. !
i , ,
•
1. IN CHAPEL.

in the Chapel, which he will be expected to keep for the term. Perfect
decorum, and entire abstinence from whispering, reading, and all overt

tion to the recitation are here required .

as to character and conduct, will be necessary conditions of a continued
connection with the Univers ity .
VI. ASSOCIATION OF THE SEXES .
As pleasure should ever be subordinate to duty, it is expected that only
very limited time will be spent by the ladies and gentlemen in social inter·
course. It is believed, however, that with only the res trictions demanded
by propriety, the association of the sexes in the collegiate career will greatly
promote the social, 1110ral and intellectual culture of each.
VII. CHURCH .
Each student will be required to attend church at leas t once each L ord's
d ay.
COLLEGE EXAM INATIONS.
I. DAILY CLASS.

best judgment of the Profe ssor in charge. Cardul attention will be given

objects of. the recitation will be to tes t the student's preparation, and to de
velop his logical ability and capacity ror expression.
II . TERM .

pursued during the term . These examinations will be enti re ly written, or
partly written and partly o ral, a the Faculty may determine. They will
always be open ror the attendan ce of vis itors ; the aim, however, will not
be to make them a source o r entertainment to vi sitors , but a rigid test of the
student's knowledge.
III. S E NIOR.

weeks before Commencement Day .

U I VERSITY LI BRA RY A D READl G-ROOM.
The Univers ity Library is but in its infan cy, but contains about 1500
volumes-many of them quite costly and rare-of the representative and,
intrinsically, 1110St valuable books in each of the great departments of liter
ature and science. I n science, only the l:lle~ l and bes t hrwe been chosen,
the rapidly progressive character of some of the scien ces having rendered
many book s, valuable twenty-five years since, now almost obsolete. I n lit
erature, those authors whom the verdict of ages has npproved are well rep
resented. Students will find the hest cyclopedias, lexicons and maps, a
weJl as manual s of special sciences, on the shelves. The scientific books are,
many of them, exhaustive, and fully sufficient for the demand s of nny special
or post-graduate course.
THE READING-ROOM .
The best weeklies, monthlies and quarterlies of Engl :md, France, Ger.
many and America come regularly to the table of the Reading-room al
tached to th e Library . These, together with the books of the Library, are
daily accessible, for reading and reference, to all the students of the I nstitu
tion.
A yearly appropriation, for furnishing the Library with exhaustive works
of reference in the various branches taught in the University, will be made.

COURSES OF STUDY.
By inspecting the foregoi ng curri culum, it will be seen that three care
fully prepared CGu rses of s tudy have been laid down for the Universi ty stu
dents, and a curricu lum of three courses also added, which see next page,
for Preparatory s tudents. \While it is not the intenti on of the In stitu tion
long to maintain courses of Preparatory study, but gradually work up to,
and ult im ately receive on ly such s tudents as are ready to enter th e F reshman
class, for the pr.esent, and at least unti l those already in the Preparatory
course have reached the Freshman year, the present arrangement has been
made.
Students entering the University will select one of the three courses laid
down, and in no case will a change be allowed duri ng term time, nor will
any irregularity in classifica ti on be allowed, except in those cases where th e
age or hea1th of the student may make it IHoper for the Pres ident to adv ise
a " Special Course. "

BUTLER UNIVERSiTY.
The Medical College of Indiana Is a comblDatlon of Ihe Indiana Medical College and the College of Phy
sicians and Surgeons of Indiana, formed in accordance with the generally
expressed wi sh of the medical profession of the State, and is now
The Medical Department of Butler University.
ANNOUNCEM E NT F O R 1879-80.
BUILDING.
The University has dedicated the large building 10 the north-eastern part
or the city, formerly occupied by her literary and scientific schools, to Jaw
and medicine. It can not be occupied (or the present, however, as there is
an existing lease held by the school board of the city of Indianapolis.
Until this lease expires, the lectures will be given in the commodious , building formerly occupied by the College of Physicians and urgeons, cor-
ner Pennsylvania and Market street s.
COURSE OF INSTRUCTION . •
The teaching will be didactic and clinical. Recognizing the success that
has re~ulted from the union of clinical and didactic teaching, the policy of
the school will be to combine these two methods of instruction so that each
may be given the utmost practical efficiency.
The obvious advantage of a graded course of instruction as exhibited in
literary and other scientific institutions will lead to the general adoption of
such a course at no distant day. Although the Trustees do not deem it ad·
visable to enter upon this plan at the present, they will favor it in every prac·
ticable way, and expect soon to advance the standard of professional qualifi.
cation by requiring, on the part of those desiring to matriculate, preliminary
examinations. COURSE OF LECTURES.
The regular term will begin October 1st, 1879, and close about the 1st
of March , 1880.
