Mr. SCanlOn Now a Ph. D.

At a recent meeting of the board
ofdirectors of the Illinois Wesleyan
University a degree of Doctor of
Philosophy was conferred upon
Rev. ID. III. Scanlon, of the Berry
vile Presbyterian Church.
Mr.. Scanlon has been engaged in
a regular course of study under
that University for the past four
yearsand is the fourth Presbyterian
minister to complete that work
there in the last decade. DR.. Beatty
President of Kentucky Theological
Seminary, DIR. Wells, OF Whining
ton. n. c., and DR.. Walthall, of
Richmond, were the others.
MIR. Scanlon has carried on his
church work here without break,
and at the same time has kept
abreast with every examination in
the course he pursued. There
were over 1900 residents students
at this University working along
similar lines.
Why could not the University
of Virginia, like this University
and Chicago University, carry on
such courses in nonresident work
for the sons Of the Old Dominion.
Cornell and Harvard are introduc-
ing this nonresident postgraduate
work, and we in the Southland
should do like wise, thereby encour-
aging our young men to become
specialists in special lines of work.
