That after July 1,1907, these rules shall apply only to books received bygift or exchange on or after June 1, 1907 ; all otherbooks covered by this report being thereafter regardedas the property of the General Library as a library ofreference and circulation, and to be acquired by anydepartmental library only by exchange or purchase.(4) No portion of this report shall be understood toapply to books belonging by purchase or assignment toa departmental library, whether now on the shelves ofsuch library, or deposited with the General Library forstorage.John M.

This would make the probation lista suspension list in the case of those whose work for thequarter continued to be unsatisfactory.)L(,2) It is recommended that a limitation of the numberof merely passing marks accepted for a degree be adoptedas an educational principle.(This would involve a modification of the presentmarking system. A number of devices have been suggested. Among these the following may be given as anillustration :a) Let each course be valued by a single letter, A, B,C, D, or E.b) To each one of these marks let there be attached"honor credits." Thus, A would have three honor credits,B one and one-half, C one-half, and D no honor credit.c) Let each course marked D or above count also fora single "pass credit."d) Require for graduation thirty-six pass plus thirty-six honor credits.e) Students who are candidates for scholarships, remission of tuition, etc., might be placed on a preferredlist determined by their number of honor credits.)3) It is recommended that the system of notifyingstudents of poor work be so modified as to include:a) The present periodic reports upon those studentswho are candidates for public appearance.b) Reports from instructors as occasion may ariseconcerning students doing conspicuously poor work whowould thereupon be considered by the Deans for inclusionin the probation list.(It is further suggested that the eligibility rules berevised in such a way as to recognize different classes ofeligibility and to attach reasonable conditions to each.)(4) It is recommended that examination questions inall courses be sent to the Examiner and placed on filewhere they will be open to the inspection of all membersof the faculty.(5) It is recommended that each instructor berequested to fill out a blank describing the methodswhich he employs in conducting his course and thatthese blanks be filed in a place accessible to all membersof the faculty.(The object of (4) and (5) above is to secure publicityand also to interchange suggestions as to methods ofinstruction.)The Committee recognizes the fact that most ofthese recommendations affect the whole undergraduate4 THE RECORDER'S MONTHLY REPORTsystem and in offering these suggestions it assumes thatif adopted they will be referred to the various bodieshaving jurisdiction.The Board of Physical Culture and Athletics :November 10. — Adoption of the followingreport of a committee on the Constitution ofthe Board of Physical Culture and Athletics:This Board by virtue of its double — extra and intraUniversity — function is one of the most important of theadministrative bodies. In view of the great importance of the questions that it is called upon to considerand to pass upon it is very essential that its constitutionshall be carefully guarded.The following points seem to be essential :(i) It should be composed of members of the facultyonly.a) No other Board of the University has studentmembers.b) Sometimes the business before the Board is of sucha nature that it should be transacted in executive session.(2) It is recommended to the Board of Trustees thatUniversity Statute XVII be amended by striking out thewords, "four representatives elected annually by thestudents," and inserting, "one representative of thealumni of the University, nominated annually underregulations prescribed by the Board of Physical Cultureand Athletics, shall be a member of the Board."Eri B. Hulbert,C. D. Buck,Joseph E. Raycroft,Committee.This recommendation has been adopted bythe Board of Trustees.December 8. — Voted the following recommendation :The Chicago Alumni Club of the University ofChicago shall be permitted to present the names ofthree alumni, one of whom is to be chosen by the President of the University, for nomination to the Boardof Trustees as a member of the Board of PhysicalCulture and Athletics, with all the privileges accordedto other members, until September 30, 1907, pendingaction of the Alumni Association at its annual meetingin June; 1907.The Board of University Relations:December 6. — Adoption of the followingresolutions : Resolved: That in the opinion of the Board ofUniversity Relations,(i) The endowment of another body to do the workoriginally contemplated in the plan of College Affiliationsmakes it superfluous for the University of Chicago toattempt the same work.(2) Since the University has no endowment to support the organization necessary to make the affiliatedarrangement effective, and presuposed in the originalplan, further efforts on the part of the University torealize the plan are not only superfluous but impracticable.(3) The original plan contemplated affiliation with alarge number of colleges and its implications cannotbe realized unless it is extended to include many colleges.(4) It is unfortunate in many ways for the University to be in relations with four colleges which createmisunderstandings about the policy of the Universitytoward all other colleges.(5) In accordance wth the right reserved by theUniversity the affiliated relation with Des MoinesCollege, Kalamazoo College, Butler College, and JohnB. Stetson University should be annulled.(6) That in the case of each of these colleges theUniversity should pledge the following:a) All students who were enrolled in classes of thecollege grade not later than October, 1906, shall beeligible to free tuition at the University of Chicago forone quarter after receiving the Bachelor's degree, provided that they applied for that privilege during thetwelve months immediately following their graduation;b) To the students designated in the previous clausewho take advantage of that privilege, and complete thework of one quarter at Chicago in accordance withpresent regulations, the University will give its Bachelor'sdegree as heretofore;c) The University will, until Oct. i, 1910, continueto grant free tuition in its graduate schools to membersof the faculties of said colleges ;d) The University will, until Oct. 1, 1910, continue tofurnish the libraries of said colleges with free copiesof the official publications to which they were entitledunder the affiliation agreement ;e) The University will, until Oct. 1, 19 10, continue toallow said colleges to designate holders of the samenumber of graduate scholarships which were at theirdisposal under the affiliated agreement.(7) The University should no longer confer itsBachelor's degree in any instance without the minimumresidence of one quarter:(8) The said colleges should be requested to omitfrom future publications all reference to affiliation withthe University of Chicago.THERecorder's Quarterly reportTO THE FACULTIES AND THE CONGREGATIONOFSCbe SRntoerattp of CbttapFOUNDED BY JOHN D. ROCKEFELLERPUBLISHED BY AUTHORITYWINTER AND SPRING QUARTERS, 1907REPORT OF ACTIONS OF UNIVERSITY RULING BODIES(CONFIDENTIAL)The Uniyersity Senate :January 5. — Approval of the action of theBoard of University Relations recommendingthe annulment of affiliated relations with ButlerCollege, Kalamazoo College, Des Moines College, and John B. Stetson University; with reference of this action, together with all considerations bearing upon it, to the Board of Trustees.January 31. — Acceptance of the followingreport on the Organization of the School ofEducation :PREAMBLEPURPOSE AND IDEA OF THE SCHOOLI. The purpose and idea of the School of Education shouldbe twofold.(1) Research in Education, with a suitable laboratory,i. e., elementary, secondary, and college work.(2) Professional: the preparation of superintendents,principals, and teachers, especially teachers in secondaryand elementary schools. This implies preparation for theteaching of boys and girls as well as a knowledge of subject-matter. The work of the School must then include studyof the developing mind and body, study of the purpose andmeaning of education, knowledge of subject-matter, andlastly the laboratory facilities for dealing in both experimentaland practical manner with the material in all these aspects,i. e., elementary and secondary schools. The idea of theschool thus involves both graduate and undergraduate work.II. This idea requires, (i) the unity in point of view gainedby organization as a school, (2) the closest relation to thevarious departments engaged in investigation and representation of subject matter.III. The internal organization should co-ordinate theundergraduate and the graduate work in education. Theprofessional work needs the standpoint of research; theresearch work needs the laboratory, i. e., the professional school. The organization should both give room forinitiative and expansion, and insure unity and efficiency.The relation of the elementary and secondary schools tothe college and graduate work should be that of laboratories.They should as to numbers be kept within limits which willbest serve the educational end, and should not be treatedprimarily as means of support.CONSPECTUS OF RECOMMENDATIONSThe following recommendations aim to carry out the abovepurpose through a Faculty having both autonomy and closerelationship with the Faculties of Arts, Literature, andScience, and further through a Head or Director who shouldaid in educational co-ordination as well as secure administrative unity. They fall under five heads :I. Departments and Faculties to be in direct charge of thevarious divisions of the School.II. The Departments of the School to be brought intoclose relation to the corresponding Departments of Arts,Literature, and Science.III. The graduate work to be directed by an organizationwhich is at the same time a Department in the GraduateSchools of Arts, Literature, and Science, and a committeeon graduate work in the School of Education.IV. The management and direction of the High andElementary Schools to be effected by the co-operation ofFaculty, Deans of these several Schools, and a Head orDirector representing the interests of the School as a wholein both professional and research aspects.V.

The quar ter may thus end as early as December 18 or as late as December 24. When it ends on December 18, January 1 fallson Friday, so that work does not actually begin in the Winter Quarter until Monday, January 4— a Christmas vacationof 16 days. On the other hand, the quarter may close December 24 and the Winter Quarter begin Monday, January 3— a vacation of nine days. The first vacation is much longerthan is necessary, an# it must be inconvenient for studentswho live at some distance to be unable to leave for homeuntil late in the afternoon of the day before Christmas, asis the case in the second example above given. The totallength of the quarter under the present arrangement variesfrom n to 12 weeks.In place of this it is proposed that the Autumn Quartershall begin on October 1, except when this day falls on Sunday, when it shall begin October 2. The quarter shall endon December 23, except that when this day falls on Saturdayor Sunday, it ends the preceding Friday; and when December 23 falls on Monday it ends the preceding Saturday. Thislatter clause prevents a single examination day from goingover the week. At present the Convocation always falls onthe last Tuesday of the quarter. This seems unimportantas compared with equalizing the length of the quarter, andit is proposed that it always fall upon the day (not Saturdayor Sunday) next preceding the quarterly examinations, whichoccur upon the last three days of the quarter. This willenable students to attend before their examinations as atpresent. In four of the seven possible cases the quarterends Tuesday to Friday, December 23. In two cases itends Friday, December 21 or 22, and once Saturday, December 21. By this arrangement the actual number of daysin the quarter varies from 82 to 84, and the number of working days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and ThanksgivingDay) is exactly 59 for every possible combination. This is afull 1 2 -weeks quarter. The Christmas vacation followingvaries from 9 to 11 days, but never exceeds the latternumber.WINTER QUARTERUnder the present arrangement the Winter Quarter beginsJanuary 2 and closes the Friday next preceding March 25.When January 2 falls on Saturday or Sunday it is suggestedthat the quarter be made to begin on the following Monday.When the first day of the Autumn Quarter falls on Saturdaythe day may be usefully employed in registration, but theregistrations for the Winter Quarter are substantially allcompleted some weeks before, so that the result of havingthe quarter nominally begin on Saturday is that almost noone appears until the following Monday, and the University preacher on the intervening Sunday has a very slimaudience. The present date of closing the quarter is retained,as a variation in the length of the Winter Quarter is necessary to give proper length to the Spring Quarter and assurethe Spring Quarter's ending on Friday. The length of the"quarter under this arrangement will vary from 75 to 82 days,and the actual number of working days (Saturdays, Sundays, and Washington's Birthday excluded) will be 54 to 59.6 THE RECORDER'S QUARTERLY REPORTThe Convocation will always occur on the last Tuesday ofthe quarter, and all examinations on the three followingdays.SPRING QUARTERUnder the present rules* the Spring Quarter begins April iand may be either 10 or 1 1 weeks long. The Winter Quartermay close as early as March 18, and in the year when thisoccurs, the Easter vacation is 14 days Bng, which is more thanis necessary. It is proposed therefore that the Spring Quartershall begin on the second Monday following the end of theWinter Quarter, which would give a uniform Easter vacationnine days in length and covering the working days of but asingle week. When the Winter Quarter ended on March18 the Spring Quarter would begin March 28, and as yearby year the Winter Quarter ends later up to March 24, theSpring Quarter likewise begins later up to April 3. TheQuarter shall end on the Friday between June 10 and 16which makes its length exactly 11 weeks, or (excludingSaturdays, Sundays, and Memorial Day) 54 working days.This length is uniform for every year, instead of a possiblevariation of a week as under the present arrangement.SUMMER QUARTERThe Summer Quarter shall begin, as now, on the Saturdayfollowing the end of the Spring Quarter, and shall continue11 weeks. This brings its conclusion on the Saturday falling between August 27 and September 2 inclusive. If Convocation is held Saturday morning at the end of the SummerQuarter the examinations can be more readily held preceding the Convocation. The actual number of working dayswould be 54, as in the Spring Quarter.It is believed that the above suggested arrangement willeffect an average saving of 9 to 10 days, besides equalizingthe working time of the various quarters. The AutumnQuarter will always have 59 working days, the WinterQuarter 54 to 59, and the Spring and Summer Quarters54 working days each. Schedules illustrating the operations of these changes for every possible combination onthe calendar are appended, as are suggestions for the precisewording of the amendments to the University Regulationsnecessary to give effect to this legislation. [Schedulesomitted.]Proposed amendment to the University Regulations,Article V. — Amend Sec. I to read:The academic year is divided into four quarters. TheSummer Quarter is divided into two terms. The year beginswith the first day of the Summer Quarter. The AutumnQuarter begins on October 1, except when this day falls onSunday, when it begins on October 2; and it ends December 23, except that when this day falls on Saturday orSunday it ends the preceding Friday; and when December 2^ falls on Monday it ends the preceding Saturday.The Winter Quarter begins January 2, except when this dayfalls on Saturday or Sunday, when it begins the Mondayfollowing; and it ends on the Friday falling betweenMarch 18 and. March 24 inclusive. The Spring Quarterbegins on the Monday falling between March 28 andApril 3 inclusive; and ends on the Friday falling betweenJune 10 and 16 inclusive. The Summer Quarter beginsthe day following the end of the Spring Quarter and ends on the Saturday falling between August 27 and September 2 inclusive.Amend Sec. II to read:A Convocation is held upon the day (not Saturday orSunday) next preceding the quarterly examinations in theAutumn, Winter, and Spring Quarters, and upon the lastday of the Summer Quarter.Amend Sec. IV to read :In the Autumn, Winter, and Spring Quarters the quarterlyexaminations are held upon the last three days of the quarter.In the Summer Quarter, term examinations on the last dayof the first term and the next to the last day of the secondterm may be substituted for the quarterly examinations.Otherwise, the latter are given during the two days preceding Convocation.Amend Sec. IX to read:Official University holidays are observed on Lincoln'sBirthday, Washington's Birthday Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Thanksgiving Day.June i.-r-Adoption of the following regulations governing Eligibility for Public Appearance:Public appearance is defined as participation in any intercollegiate contest; or participation (1) in an oratprical, dramatic, or musical exhibition, (2) in the official managementof any other exhibition, or (3) in official service on any publication under the University name in connection with whichadmission or subscription fees are charged.To be eligible for public appearance in a given Quarter astudent:1.

Astudent of more than twelve months' standing who does notsatisfy this requirement of full work in the past but whosecredit since his matriculation averages two Majors- for eachQuarter of residence, and who has no conditions or failurescharged against him, is eligible for public appearance, provided that he is doing full work (i. e., three Majors) inthe Quarter in which such appearance is made.4. Shall sustain his current work at a satisfactory gradeto be determined as follows: At the end of the fourth weekreports shall be made to the Deans by Instructors, of studentsbelow passing grade. If a student be reported in two ormore courses he shall thereupon becoi&e ineligible for thesucceeding period of four weeks. At the end of the eighthweek a second report shall be made to the Deans by instructors. A student reported at this time as below grade in twoor more courses, or who is reported for the second time in anysingle course, is ineligible for public appearance during theremainder of the Quarter.THE RECORDER'S QUARTERLY REPORT 75, It is understood that nothing in the foregoing shall beinterpreted or administered in a way to controvert any intercollegiate agreement now in force.The General Faculty :January ig. — Voted, the appointment of thesecommittees: (1) To consider and propose suchchanges in the statutes of the University asmay be desirable properly to relate the functionsof the General Faculty to those of other rulingbodies of the University — Messrs. J. M. Coulter,J. P. Hall, J. L. Laughlin, Shailer Mathews,Paul Shorey, Julius Stieglitz, Committee.(2) To report upon the^ advisability of substituting entrance examinations in place of thepresent system of certificates. — Messrs. F. W.Shepardson, G. E. Vincent, H. J. Davenport,F. F. Abbott, Julius Stieglitz, J. P. Goode, andMrs. Edith F. Flint, Committee.The United Faculty of Arts, Literature, and Science :January 26. — Acceptance of the followingreport on Master's Degrees:The committee appointed to report on the requirements forMaster's degrees recommends the following requirementsin place of those now in force :a) At least three quarters' residence at -the University.b) At least 8 majors of graduate work., These 8 majorsneed not be all in one department, but must be selectedaccording to some rational plan, approved by the Deans ofthe Graduate Schools at least six months before the degreeis conferred. The individual courses must receive theapproval of the heads of the departments concerned.c) A satisfactory dissertation on a subject approved byone of the departments in which the work is done. In exceptional cases the deans, upon the recommendation of thedepartments concerned, may accept an additional majorin lieu of the dissertation required.d) A satisfactory examination on the work taken for thedegree.(To be substituted for all that appears in the Register,1905-6, from a), column 2, p. 64, to 8, column 1, p. 65,except A (3), commencing at the bottom of p. 64).In response to a request of the faculty for a definition ofthe Master's degree, the committee submits the following:The Master's degree is a degree given for a year of graduate work of creditable grade, pursued according to someconsistent plan, and with a definite end in view.Rollin D. Salisbury,Frank Bigelow Tarbell,James Hayden Tufts,Committee. The Board of the Senior Colleges :April 20. — Acceptance of a report from theCommittee on Curriculum on the question ofCredit in the Senior Colleges for Courses in theCollege of Education:'The committee recommend that as soon as the courses inthe College of Education are definitely divided into SeniorCollege courses and Junior College courses, in order thatthe same courses may not be prescribed as requirementsfor both the General Course B (Senior College Students)and Course A (students from whom only a high-school courseis required), the fpUowing recommendations from the Facultyof the College of Education shall go into effect:III. The Faculty of the College of Education recommendsto the Board of the Senior Colleges that in the administrationof the present regulation nine majors of professional work inthe College of Education may be credited toward the Bachelor's degree in the Colleges of Arts, Literature, and Science,the following ruling be observed :a) In the case of students who have enrolled for Ed. B.and followed the regular course for that degree, any ninemajors of Senior College courses may be so counted.b) In the case of students registered in the Colleges ofArts, Literature, and Science who desire to take isolatedcourses (majors or minors) in the College of Education, eachrequest for academic credit for such isolated courses must beconsidered by itself, and be decided by the character of thespecial course taken, as determined by the Dean of theCollege of Education, the Head of the Department offeringthe course (or the Head of the nearest allied department),and the Dean of the Senior Colleges.The reason for this distinction exists in the fact that inthe former case subjects such as the arts, are pursued aspart of a general course and with a theoretical backgroundin general educational doctrine as well as in the specific subject, while in the latter case (i. e., students of Arts, Literature,and Science) this would not be the case, and hence the theorywould need to be secured in the specific course.James Hayden Tufts,Edwin O. Jordan,Ernst Freund,Francis W. Shepardson,Julius Stieglitz,Committee.The United Faculty of the Junior Colleges :February 4. — Acceptance of the followingreport from the Deans :In accordance with the instructions of the Faculty to reporton some principle for administering free tuitions to students,the Deans make the following recommendations :That all honor scholarships be granted for a year,but made revocable at the end of any quarter, and that failureto maintain an average scholarship of B shall result in such8 THE RECORDER'S QUARTERLY REPORTrevocation. That all other aid to students be granted for aquarter only, with the implied understanding that it will becontinued through three quarters if the work is satisfactory.The failure to maintain an average grade of C in any onequarter shall result in canceling further aid. It is furtherrecommended that discretion be vested in the Deans torequire in the case of certain students of the second class ahigher grade than C.Note. — The deans would respectfully point out that casesare often so complicated that it is difficult to apply any fixedprinciple. The above recommendations are designed to setlimits within which a certain amount of discretion ought tobe employed.It was voted that the principles embodied in this reportbe accepted, but that discretion be granted to the Deansin the application of them, with the understanding that theywill report cases settled outside of these limits to the Faculty.The Board of Student Organizations, Publications,and Exhibitions :January 12. — Voted, that the editorial boardof the Daily Maroon be placed under the rulesfor public appearance.April 27. — Approval of a proposition to issuea weekly paper during the Summer Quarter only.May 25. — Approval of the Constitution ofthe Daily Maroon.
