Professor Nelson.
Journal Club: The staff, assistants, graduate and advanced students meet
on stated evenings during the session for the discussion of current investigations
in stratigraphy, economic geology, mineralogy, petrology, and paleontology. During
the year several visiting geologists discuss current problems at the Club, and
such meetings are open to the public.
The Lewis Brooks Museum contains collections illustrating the main subdivisions
of natural history. Each of the collections is arranged so as to exemplify
the principles of the science, and at the same time offers a large variety
of subjects for advanced study. In geology the specimens show the different
kinds of rocks, classified according to mineral character and the formations in
which they occur. The collections of fossils, plaster casts, maps, etc., are exceptionally
fine, and illustrate historical geology. In mineralogy, the principles of
the science are made plain by well-chosen suits of specimens, models of crystals,
etc. The general collection of minerals contains all the important species, and
many of the rarer ones, in good specimens. In addition to the above, a beginning
has been made of a collection to illustrate the geology and mineralogy of the
State of Virginia, and this is being increased as rapidly as 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.

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 (general) 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 palæography, epigraphy, numismatics, and
