We have received the new cata-
logue of the Tulane University
of Louisiana. in New Orleans, Just
issued from the University
Press.
| An examination of its contents
show that the year just closed has
been one of the most notable and
successful in the development OF
/ the University. The teaching
force and the attendance have
been the largest in all her history
being S6 teachers and 1922 stu
pents. The opening of the donis
itories during the year has filled
long needed want, and makes il
now possible for student to at-
tend the University at the minis
mum cost. 1t is estimated that
1915 will pay the expenses Of a
scholarship student in the acade-
mic department for a session, and
the Bureau of Self-Help will do
all in its power to assist students
OF limited means to help pay their
way through. There are large
number Of scholarships open to
Louisiana boys, and it is the de-
cIared policy Of University that in
the academic colleges, no boy if
properly prepared for college work
will be turned away from jnabil-
ity to pay tuition We note that
the attendance of students from
! the country parishes is steadily
increasing. We call attention OF
our readers to the advertisement of
the University in another column.
