COLLEGE OF OTTAWA.
The College of Ottuwa, under tlie direction of (he Obljito
Futhers of Mary Immaculate, in situated in one ol" the most
lieaithy localities of the city. Its position unites all the
benetitfl of country atmosphere, and aspect with the con-
veniences ol" city life. Its l)ui!din<,'s are spacious, and well
calculated to insure the health, and ijeneral well-being of the
students.
The grounds are enclosed, and well shaded, and aftbrd evcvy
desirable facility for youthful exercise and amusement. All
the attractions of the recreation-room; the gymnasium; and
tlie ball court are provided.
The-country Iiouso of tlio College occupies a beautiful site
on the banks of the Ilideau. It is surrounded by extensive
])lay-grounds, which otter special attractions to the students
•luring the holidays.
Together with these advantages so conducive to the preser-
vation of health, the daily attendance of a competent doctor
and surgeon is procured for the College. In case of illness,
the students are confided to the care of the Sisters of Charity,
who are in charge of the Infirmai-y.
The observance of discipline and good order, being indis-
jiensable to insure the success of the students in their studies,
exact observance of the rules of the College is enforced.
Moral influence is had recourse to cs])ecially, as an incentive
to the <luties prescribed.
Serious infringement of discipline, habitual profanity of
language, and the introduction of irreligious or otherwise
pernicious works are causes of expulsion.

The progranimo of Htudios in the college CMniiirises thi'ce
courses.
l8t. — Commercial Course.
2nd. — Civil Kngineering Course.
31x1. — Classical Coui-sc.
No student is admitted to any one of these courses hefore
having given pi-oof, h}' a satisfactory examination, ofi'oinpetent
preparation to warrant his advancini; to such advantageously.
The subject matter of those examinali(tns is expressed in
the programme respectively for each course.
The (.'ommercial Course is so arranfjed as to enahle students
to embrace either or lx)th of the remaining and sujterior
courses. But those who desire t(» bring their studies to a
close at this ep(K'h, have already accpiircd such an oducation
us may betit theni to embrace many slates in lili,' wluili do not
recjuire the more advanced studies.
8lndonts who have followeil theCouj'si' of(!ivil i'^ngineering,
and passed therein a satisfactoiy examinati(»n, ivci'ive a certi-
ficate in attestation of the branches studied, and of the success
by which their talent and application have been rewarded.
The college of Ottawa being 1)3- Act of Legislature, bearing
date 15th of August, 1800, endowed with University powers,
confers the degress of '• IJachelor of Arts," and "Master of
Arts," on such students as have successfully followed the pic-
8cribod classical course.
In oitler to receive the degree of " Bachelor of Arts,"
Mtudents must undergo two oral, and two written examina-
tions — one of each at the end of their first five years — up »n
all the subject matter of their Classical Course, and again at
the close of their seventh year upon l*hil(»opliy. Mathematics,
and the hiirhor sciences.

Two years ufterwai-ds, any such stiulent wishing to obtain
the de^i<ree of" Master of Arts," may, hy writing, make known
his intention to the President of the College, who will exact a
sufficient test of ability to warrant his conferring the desired
favor.
Particular attention is paid to religious instruction. Care is
taken to form in the minds of the students throughout their
entire course, such high and becoming notions of their holy
I'aith, as may befit them to become good Christian members of
wociety. Explanations of the Catechism, and discourses o tho
principal m^-steries of religion, form the staple of the insti-nc-
tion imparted.
The annual vacation begins on the last Wednesday of Juno,
and ends on the 1st September. There being no recess at
Christmas or Easter, students jnay not then be withdrawn
from their studies.
