The School of Mines has its foundation in a grant of 40,000 acres of land set aside for the purpose by _, an act of Congress at the time North Dakota was admitted to the Union. “™ Well Trained Men Needed. The wonderful development of the resources of this country has made the mining industry second only to that of agriculture. It is easily seen that the successful development of such resources requires special training in engineering, mining, metallurgy, chemistry, geology and other kindred sciences. With this in view the courses in the School of Mines have been arranged so as to give a thorough technical education to those desiring to become mining engineers, metallurgists, and superintendents of industries, and so as to produce men capable of developing the resources of the state. Advantages. The School of Mines is supplied with crushers, pulverizers, clay, coal and ore working machinery, re- ducing furnaces, assay furnaces and other apparatus necessary for an extended course in mining, metallurgy, etc. Students in mining engineering, have by special arrangement, the additional advantage of the instruction, shops and fine epuipment of the mechanical engineering department.

Acct., Princepal. ‘ O you want to learn to do business in a business-like way? Do you wish to fit yourself to be an expert stenog- rapher, typewriter, book- keeper or accountant?

The demands of a business life are every day becoming more ex- acting. - To succeed, a A VIEW IN THE LIBRARY. Rake aig Septem iene gt needs preparation. To meet this demand a great many private commercial schools have sprung up. But lately many of the leading colleges have been establishing departments of commerce.

URPOSE of the School. As the name indicates, the Pre- paratory Department prepares for the colleges, It is maintained for the benefit of those who have no High School privi- leges at home.

To enter, you will have to pass ex- aminations in Arithmetic, Grammar, Ge- ography, U.S. History, Physiology and THE COTTAGE—YOUNG WOMEN’S DORMITORY. Civics, unless you have certificates from the High School Board in these subjects. < Time Required. The course in this department requires three full years for its completion. This is a year longer than some (so-called) preparatory courses; but this is because the course is up to the eastern standard, while the short-cut courses are not, as is evident from the very fact that they require a shorter time. Expense. In all the departments, except Law, the tuition is free; room rent, including heat and light, hot and cold water, is seventy-five cents per week; table board, $2.75 per week. How could it be less? For further information, send for catalogue.

That will no longer be necessary. The opportunity is now offered at home. The expense will be DAVIS HALL—YUUNG WOMEN’S DORMITORY. only a small fraction of what it would be at the great eastern technical schools; but it will be the aim to make the course just as thorough and valuable.

Anyone who has completed Arithmetic, Grammar, Geography, U. S. History, Physiology and Civics can enter the Preparatory, Normal or Commercial Departments by presenting High School Certificates in these subjects, a second grade teacher’s certificate, or by passing an entrance examination. Anyone who has completed a course equivalent to ‘that offered by a first-class State High School can enter any of the College departments. Anyone who has partially completed a High School course will be given due credit for what be has done, and assigned to his proper place. 600 LO Bee ae enter? You canenter at any time; but to enter any class after the work is well begun involves a student in many embar- rassments. A hard student can often make Hp ihe, work she las lost, A STUDY IN BUDGE HALL. but it is always difficult. Therefore, if possible, plan to enter at the beginning of the year or term. For late registration, an extra fee of one dollar is charged. The regular enrollment for the fall term takes place September 23, 1902. 4. Can T choose my own studies and take just what [ wish? Yes—that is, you can do so with a few limitations. If you wish to take a full course in any department, certain studies are prescribed, though in every department there is considerable opportunity for choice. If, however, you wish to take a special course purstiing studies along some particular line, you may do so, taking any work for which you are prepared. For example, if you wish to take up Stenography and Typewriting, but don’t care for Commercial Arithmetic or Bookkeeping, you may do so. Of course you ought to take a complete course in the department in which you enroll; but if you cannot do this, you are allowed to take what you feel you need most. iy, AW heat cs fue nished tn the Dormitory rooms?

The young people at the University PARLOR INDAVIS HALL. . have avery pleasant time. Every week there is a reception in the large parlor in Davis Hall. There are also occasional gatherings of a more formal character, sometimes in Davis Hall, sometimes in the Armory. There are occasional lectures by prominent speakers. The literary societies give open entertainments. The different classes have their annual banquets. During every winter there are entertainments of a high character in the City of Grand Forks. Altogether there is abundant opportunity for a pleasant and profitable social life. 7. Religious life at the University. Naturally the University cannot be sectarian; but the faculty is made up entirely of Christian men and women. There isa Young Men’s Christian Association, and a Young Woman’s Christian Association. A religious service is held in the college chapel every morning, and a longer one in the parlor every Sunday evening. Besides these, a prayer meeting is held in one building or the other almost every night during the college year. . The University om- nibuses run into town every Sunday to accom- modate those desiring to attend church in the city. All the Grand Forks churches and pastors take a warm interest in the Universityandthe students. No one can say that the religious element is not encour- aged at the State Uni- versity. ro Physical train- e oe Posts B ing at the University. The young men _ have A ROOM IN DAVIS HALL. military drill two times a week through the preparatory course and through the first years of the college course. The work is directed by an army officer, who is a graduate of West Point. The young women are instructed in physical culture three times a week by a specially trained teacher. They use the drill hall in the Armory, and have ample room for carefully selected and vanes ESE In addition to the regular drills, base ball, foot ball, basket ball, and tennis, and in ws winter, safe skating rinks, made by flooding portions of the campus, afford excellent opportunities for vigorous outdoor exercise. The attitude of the University is favorable to the use and control of athletics. She pele in athletics used, not abused. She knows that vigorous, clean sport contributes to healthy bodies and minds, and there- fore is a large factor in developing high types of morality among her youth.
