c. Three concerts by the Albemarle Choral Club.
History and Environment.—The work offered re-establishes the instruction
outlined in the first curriculum of the University, 1818, the earliest
proposal for instruction in art, architecture, and music in any American university.
An unrivalled background is provided for it by the buildings and environment
of Charlottesville; the University group, with its old buildings specially
designed to furnish examples of the various orders "as specimens
for the architectural lecturer," its new buildings designed by Stanford
White; the works of sculpture by Houdon, Ezekiel, Bitter, Borglum, Keck,
the University with part of the income of the McIntire fund.
Equipment.—The School of Fine Arts has its headquarters in the
building at the south end of West Range, which has been specially adapted
to its use. It comprises a lecture, concert, and exhibition hall, architectural
draughting rooms, dark rooms and offices. A large studio for
freehand drawing and painting is located in Cabell Hall. For concerts
requiring large seating capacity Cabell Hall itself is available, and also the
new classic open-air amphitheatre given to the University by Paul Goodloe
McIntire, of the Class of 1879.
Since the foundation of the School the University has already acquired
the nucleus of an important collection of works of art, to supplement
the considerable number of fine portraits and other paintings in its
possession. As a gift from Hon. John Barton Payne it has received a
large collection of etchings, engravings and lithographs, including numerous
and important examples of the work of Rembrandt, Whistler, Haden,
Turner, Legros, Zorn and other masters, and admirably illustrating the
history and processes of the graphic arts. An important canvas ascribed
to Rubens has just been presented by John Armstrong Chaloner, Esq.
For the current work in Art and Architecture there is generous provision
of casts, books, photographs and lantern slides. The casts include
geometrical models, motives of ornamentation, architectural elements,
elements of the figure, and a number of full figures from the antique,
as well as fine modern figures. Beside the books on the history of
art and on construction kept at the University Library, an exceptional
departmental collection of works valuable for reference in
architectural design and detailing, is housed in direct connection with the
draughting rooms. Among the numerous important sets of folios are the
Grands Prix de Rome, Médailles des Concours d'architecture, Monuments
antiques, Fragments antiques, Edifices de Rome moderne, The Georgian
Period, Work of McKim, Mead, and White, etc., etc. These are supplemented
by some three thousand photographs, and by a collection of
five thousand lantern slides, as well as by a number of envoi drawings by
former holders of the Roman Prize and the Rotch Travelling Scholarship.
For Music, the school has two concert grand pianos for its use in the
classroom and for ensemble recitals, a double bass and kettle drums for
the use of students in the orchestra, lantern slides illustrating ancient
instruments and a comprehensive library of chamber music, orchestral
scores and parts, operas, and piano classics, as well as books of reference
on musical subjects and collateral reading, which latter are kept in the
University Library.
There are also available for the Music Department a two-manual
Skinner organ in Cabell Hall and a new three-manual Moeller organ in
connection with the McIntire amphitheatre.

of twenty-six inches aperture. The instrument and building are the gift
of the late Leander J. McCormick, Esq., of Chicago. The telescope is fitted
with micrometer, photometer, and plate-holder for stellar photography.
The computing rooms adjoining contain clocks, chronograph, machines for
measuring astronomical photographs and spectrograms, and an excellent
working library. In a smaller building are a three-inch transit and a six-inch
equatorial. A temporary students' observatory, erected in the rear
of Dawson's Row, is intended primarily for the use of students in Astronomy
B1.

Advanced Courses: Seminars will be offered in the different branches
of Chemistry to students applying for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.
The courses will be offered only as occasion demands, and the subjects
treated will vary. These courses will be designated as "D" courses, but
owing to the flexibility which it is desired to secure in the subject matter,
no definite statement of them will be made except that special phases
of physical, inorganic, and analytical chemistry will be treated, including
such subjects as radio-chemistry, the chemistry of the rare elements,
colloid and surface chemistry, etc. Research work looking toward a thesis
will accompany these courses.
The Chemical Journal Club will meet once a week (hour to be arranged)
for the critical review and discussion of various topics of interest
in current chemical literature and of such chemical researches as are in
progress in the University. All members of the teaching staff and advanced
students in chemistry are expected to participate in these meetings
and to take part in the discussions. The privileges of the club are
extended to all members of the University and others who are interested
in the progress of Chemistry.
The Chemical Laboratory, recently completed, is of brick, fire-proof
construction, and the three floors afford 30,000 square feet of space. The
seven larger laboratories will accommodate 625 students, and, in addition
to these, there are smaller laboratories for the use of instructors and advanced
students. There are also rooms for assay furnaces, gas and water
analysis, photography, etc. The building is supplied throughout with water,
gas and electricity. A commodious working library is available for the
students, containing about 4,000 books directly related to chemistry, and
complete files of the more important chemical journals.

Latin D: Latin C1 or C2 prerequisite.—A three-year course for those
who desire to specialize in classical philology, especially those who choose
Latin as their major for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. If the candidate's
major be Latin, a respectable familiarity with Greek is required.
If the candidate's major be Romanic, the technical Greek requirement is
waived as far as practically possible, and he is guided into the history of
the Roman popular vernacular and into an acquaintance with the authors
illustrating the Vulgar Latin in literature. It is the aim of this course to
prepare the candidate to investigate independently the sources of our
knowledge of the language, monuments (literary and objective), and life
of the Romans. The following is, therefore, an outline of the course: I.
In Language: Elements of comparative grammar; introduction to Latin
historical grammar; systematic grammar; reading of epigraphic and literary
monuments illustrating the history of the Latin Language. II. In
the Literary and Objective Monuments of the Romans: Reading of authors
in groups systematically planned to illustrate the literary life of
the Romans; history and interpretation of texts; elements of palaeography,
epigraphy, numismatics, topography and remains. III. In Roman
Life: Constructive study of Roman culture-history; reading of authors
illustrating the development of Roman civilization; study of modern authorities
in Roman culture-history.—Hours by appointment. Professor
FitzHugh, Adjunct Professor McLemore.
