THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE

The University OF Oregon was es-
tablished by an act of the state Leg
islature October 10. 1879, and To-
Gated at Eugene. Deadly Hall, the
first university building. was erected
by the citizens of Lane county, and
presented to the Board OF Regents In
July, 1876. In September of the
same year, the university opened its
doors for the reception of students.
The first class was graduated in
June. 1878.
The equipment Of the university
was at first very small. and the
courses of instruction we're limited
practically TO literary lines. The uni
versity grew rapidly. and the de-
mand for a broader curriculum was
met by the addition OF engineering,
scientific. and technical courses. The
Law School was established in 1884,
and the Medical School In 1887.
With the growth and development OF
the bldlts lut university hao -
creased in numbers and financial re-
sources. Buildings have been erect
ed, new departments added. and a
large equipment installed.
The most important single gift to
the university was that OF $4,000
made by Henry Willard in 1855 for
general endowment.
During the early years OF the In
stltution, the only high schools In
the state were located In two or
three OF the larger citiees, and Il
was necessary for the university TO
offer academic courses IN order that
students graduating from the schools
in smaller towns might continue
their wsrk by coming directly TO tine
university. AS the high school sys-
tenn OF the state developed. Il became
possible 20 discontinue the nrst
year of the academy course; a little
later the second year was dropped;
and finally in 1904 the academy was
entirely abolished.
The government OF the institution
rests uoon the inherent obligations
OF students TO the university and TO

en- certificates to that effect which
will be honored in any Oregon stat =
Normal school in lieu of the work
prescribed in pedagogy in the fresh
man year. A detailed outline of the
work to be attempted in the observa-
tion work also in the problems to be
solved is worked out in the coruss.
The teachers training course is
designed to be of assistance to high
school students who intend to teach
but feel that they cannot afford to
leave home to fit themselves for that
work. Superintendent Ackerman Is
of the opinion that many students
who take this course will become SO
interested in It that they will event
ually take up more advanced work
in one of the regular normal schools.
Another feature Of the course Is
that hereafter the schools of the
state will be classified according to
the courses adopted and the number
of teachers devoting the whole Of
their time to teaching high school
subjects, "a high school of the first
class being one having one or more
four-year courses and at least three
teachers devoting the whole of their
time to high school work; a high
school OF the second class being one
having one or more three-year
courses and at least two teachers de-
voting the whole of their time to
high school work; high school If
the third class being one having one
or more two-year courses and az
least one teacher devoting the whole
OF her time to high school work. and
a high school of the fourth class be-
ing one have one-year course and
one teacher devoting the whole OF
her time to high school work.
The courses of study both for the
elementary and high schools to-
gether with the suggestions to
teachers cannot help being source
of much benefit to teachers, school
officers and patrons.

success and that all OF its provisions
are practicable. Statistics seem TO
bear out these reports. Average
daily attendance for the school year
1907-190S shows an increase OF
1872 over the previous year. This
large showing may be partly due to
a more accurate method OF secur.
ing the school statistics. The new
law requires the teachers TO report
TO the county superintendent at tho
end of each school month. Upon
the reports of the teachers tho coun-
