Cornell University Summer School.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

During the past summer, courses of instruction were offered by professors and instructors of Cornell University in Greek, Latin, French, German, English, Philosophy, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Drawing, and Physical Training.

In all there were a hundred and fifteen in attendance, representing twenty two states and territories, Canada, and Japan; and of these far the greater part were teachers and advanced students. The private venture, begun so auspiciously, has now taken a more permanent form, and the school has been made an integral part of the University.

The list of courses offered for the summer of 1893 is greatly increased, and among the additions to the corps of instructors of last summer are Professors Wheeler and Bristol and Dr. Laird in Greek, Professor Bennet in Latin, Professor Smith in Elocution and Oratory, Professor Tichener in Psychology. Professor Williams in Pedagogy, Professor Wilcox and Dr. Hull in Social and Economic Science, Professor MacMahon in Mathematics, and Professor Hitchcock in Physical Training.

Summer courses in the school of Law will also be offered this year for the first time, instruction being given by the entire faculty of the school.
