This institution is established in accordance with an Act of Congress, making a grant of land as an endowment for its benefit, and in accord- ance with an Act of the General Assembly of this State, carrying out the object of said grant. According to the language of the grant, u tlie leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, in order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life;’ 5 or, changing the order of statement, the chief aim of the University is, “the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life;” and in order to this end, the University is “ to teach such branches of learn- ing as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, without exclud- ing other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics.” The military tactics are required, and the scientific and classical studies are permitted. Such, at least, we believe, is the common construction of those clauses, though the language may not unreasonably be under- stood to imply that the latter studies shall not be excluded from the course. The aim of the University is to comply strictly with the Acts of Congress and the General Assembly of this State in providing for and establishing it. It proposes, thererfore — 1st. To impart a knowledge of science and its application to the arts of life. 2d. To afford to students, such as may desire it, the benefits of daily manual labor. This labor is to some degree remunerative. But its remunerative character is not so much intended to lessen the expenses of students as for educational uses, as it is planned and varied for the illustration of the principles of science. The preservation of health, 12 ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY. and of a taste for the pursuits of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, are two other important objects. 3d. To prosecute experiments for the promotion of Agriculture and Horticulture. 4th. To provide the means of instruction in military science ; and to this end skilled instructors and suitable military implements will be secured and obtained as soon as practicable. 5th. To afford the means of a general and thorough education not inferior to those afforded to all classes in the best of colleges. LOCATION. The Arkansas Industrial University is pleasantly located within the corporate limits of the town of Fayetteville, Washington county. This location is thought to be unsurpassed by any other locality in the State in salubrity of climate, beauty of surrounding scenery, fertility of soil, variety and perfection of agricultural and horticultural productions and the morality and intelligence of its people. BUILDINGS, &e. • The buildings now in use are comfortable and convenient. They are well furnished, and could be made to accommodate three hundred students. The contract has been let and work commenced on the permanent building, which is a brick edifice, five stories high, 214 feet in length, with a depth in the wings of 122 feet. It contains five large halls for library, cabinets and museums ; thirty class rooms, and several large halls for literary societies, etc. The building will be completed by September, 1875. TERMS AND VACATIONS. The Academical Year of the University, with its several departments, is divided into three terms, which are denominated Autumn, Winter and Spring ; and the year will begin with the opening of the Autumn term. The Autumn term will continue fourteen weeks, the Winter and Spring terms will continue thirteen weeks each, and there will be one long vacation, commencing at the close of the Spring term and continu- ing to the opening of the Autumn term, including the whole of August and the greater parts of July and September; and two short vacations of one week each, one at the close of the Autumn term and the other at the close of the Winter term. ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY. 13 CALENDAR FOR 1873-74. The Autumn term will commence on the 22d of September, 1873, and close on the 19th of December, 1873. The Winter term will com- mence on the 29th of December, 1873, and close on the 27th of March, 1874. The Spring term will commence on the 6th of April, 1874, and close on the 3d of July, 1874. PROPERTY AND FUNDS. The property of the University consists of the proceeds of the muni- ficent grant of land by Congress; the bonds of Washington county and town of Fayetteville; the appropriations made by the State, and the University Farm and lands, amounting in all to $355,000 in value. EXPERIMENTAL FARM. An experimental farm, of excellent character, has been provided, immediately contiguous to the University, for agricultural and horticul- tural purposes. The labor system will be voluntary, and students will not labor exceeding three hours per day, Saturdays excepted. Com- pensation for labor will be from five to fifteen cents per hour, according to ability. The present crop, including the orchard and garden, and all mechan- ical and other work, has been done exclusively by the students, under the supervision of the faculty. To such as were painstaking and skillful, this labor was remunerative to such a degree as to enable many to pay their way wholly, or in part, by it; but in this, as in all other duties, the student is made to feel that his success depends upon his own thrift and industry. BENEFICIARIES. It is provided in Section 18, of the Act of the General Assembly establishing the University, that the Board of Trustees shall have power to “prescribe the grade and number of honorary scholarships, and prescribe the rules by which scholars, who are to be admitted free, shall be elected equally from the various parts of the State.” They have, therefore, made provisions for two hundred and thirty-seven bene- ficiaries, who will be entitled to four years free tuition, and who are apportioned among the several counties according to their respective populations by the United States census of 1870, which apportionment is as follows: 14 ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY Counties. beneficiaries.

The beneficiaries will be appointed as follows: By the Governor of the State, ten, not to exceed two in any one county; by the Superin- tendent of Public Instruction, five, not to exceed one in any one county, provided, he shall not be entitled to make any appointments by virtue of his being ex-officio member of the Board of Trustees ; by each member of the Board of Trustees, four, to be selected from his district. The County Superintendents of Public Instruction are authorized to appoint the residue of beneficiaries from their respective counties, pro- vided no appointment shall be made in any county exceeding its quota, as above. The Governor of the State, Superintendent of Public Instruction, and members of the Board of Trustees should complete their appoint- ments, and notify the County Superintendents of Public Instruction thereof twenty days before the opening of the Autumn term of each year. The County Superintendents should complete their appointments by the opening of the Autumn term. Persons entitled to make appointments will prepare duplicate notifications of appointments, one of which will be forwarded to the President of the University, and one to the Secretary of the Board of Trustees. And, in case the appointee fails to appear at the University within twenty days after the commence- ment of the Autumn term (except in case of sickness), he will be regarded as having declined his appointment ; in which case it will be ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY. 15 the duty of the President of the Faculty to notify the person making such appointment, who will make another appointment, as soon there- after as possible ; and such other appointee will be required to appear at the University on the first day of the next term. The President of the Faculty shall continue to notify appointing officers, till their respective number of appointees make their appearance at the University. TUITION. Beneficiaries and Normal students, upon entering the University, will pay a matriculation fee of $5. This entitles them to free tuition for four years if Beneficiaries, and three if Normal students. Students other than Beneficiaries and Normal students, whether residents or non-residents of the State, will be charged $10 tuition per term in the Collegiate, and $7 per term in the Preparatory Department. MILITARY DEPARTMENT. Provisions have been made for instruction in military science and tactics ; and all able bodied male students will be required to drill twice a week. It is expected that an officer of the United States Army will take charge of this department the coming year. A uniform has been prescribed for the male students, which will consist of a suit of cadet gray mixed cloth, of the same color and quality as that worn at West Point, and manufactured by the same establishment, and a cap of dark blue cloth, ornamented with the initials A. I. U. and surrounded by a silver wreath in front. This uniform will not be required to be worn the coming year, with the exception of the cap. Arrangements will be made by which students can obtain the uniform cap on their arrival at the University, at or near cost ; and also the entire suit, if desired. flfj J|»fll!lj|. CRA-SSIUA-L course.

By the Act of the General Assembly, carrying into effect the Act of Congress making the grant for the Industrial University, it was provided that there should be a Normal Department therein. A Normal Depart- ment has been therefore established in, or in connection with the University. This Department is now fully in operation, and is designed to furnish a thorough course of instruction to all those who desire to engage in the profession of teaching in the public schools. The courses of study and training in this Department are separate and distinct from the University courses, the great aim being the educa- tion of teachers. QUALIFICATIONS FOR ADMISSION. Applicants for admission must be of good moral character, and must, if males, be sixteen, if females fourteen years of age ; also, they must pass a satisfactory examination in the common English branches. Applicants who, upon examination by the faculty, are found not qualified to enter the Normal Department, may be placed in the Pre- paratory Department ; and upon their entering into a written obligation to take a Normal course with a view of qualifying themselves as teachers, after the completion of their preparatory course, their tuition shall be free. Those who may not be able, in the opinion of the faculty, to prepare themselves for the Normal Department by one year’s study in the Preparatory Department, shall not be entitled to free tuition therein. TRAINING SCHOOL. A Training School has been established in the Preparatory Depart- ment, where students in the Normal Department will be required to put in practice the theories taught them, under the direct supervision of a training instructor. 24 ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY, COURSE OF STUDY- first YEAR.

In view of the fact that the educational facilities in this State have been and are, with the exception of a few favored localities, such that young persons, desirous of a collegiate or normal education, have been and are unable properly and sufficiently to prepare themselves to enter the Industrial University or Normal School therein, there has been established, in connection with the University and Normal School, a Preparatory Department. This is intended to be auxiliary to the higher departments, and especially to prepare pupils who may enter it for those departments. This Department is under the general supervision of the Faculty of the University and Normal Department. Beneficiaries, who, upon an examination by the faculty, may be found not qualified to enter the Industrial University, may be placed in the Preparatory Department, as beneficiaries ; but the time spent by them in this depart- ment will be deducted from the four years’ free tuition to which they are entitled in the University by virtue of their appointments.

Many letters have been received asking how far a student can pay his way by labor — what our labor system is — what is the design of the Normal Department — what is the price of board, tuition, books, etc. An attempt has been made to answer these inquiries in this circular, 1 and one will be sent in reply to such letters hereafter, unless a written answer seems to be required. Board, in private families in Fayetteville, can be had for $100 to $120 per year. A beneficiary or Normal student pays $5 matriculation fee. After this his tuition is free. All others pay $20 to $30 per year for tuition. $10 to $20 per year will be needed for books and stationery. The books used in the University can be bought in Fayetteville at publishers’ prices. Students should bring with them such books as they have, for reference. Students can wear such clothing here as they have been accustomed to at home. Cleanliness, neatness and comfort only will be required. While it is true that several students have paid their way while in school by labor, it is not a safe dependence. It has been done by the closest economy and the most determined thrift. The energy and economy necessary to carry such through their course j should be used in the first place in providing a small amount of money to start with. An unlimited amount of remunerative labor cannot t be promised, though as much as possible will be provided for such students as have a mind to use it to accomplish the two ends for which it is furnished. The Normal Department is designed solely for the education of teachers ; either those who have begun to teach, or young persons who desire to begin to fit themselves for teaching. No one has a right to free tuition in this department, who does not, in good faith and with proper motives, intend to make teaching his profession. It is admitted that a doctor or lawyer should have some training or preparation to be successful in his profession, and schools for this 34 ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY. purpose have been established. Thoughtful parents are beginning to feel that teachers also need preparation for their work, and they are demanding men and women of the best talents and character and the highest culture, as the teachers of their children. It is to meet and encourage this want that the Normal Department is established. DISCIPLINE. If our students are to become valued and noble citizens, they need to learn self-government and to conform their conduct to the laws of their country and to the usages of good society, more than they need to learn science. Students must not expect to be governed, but to govern them- selves . It is no part of the duty of the faculty to act the part of policemen or spies upon the conduct of students. With the instructions they receive, those who care and try can be gentlemen. Those who do not care nor try need not come, for they will not be permitted to remain as students. It will not be enough for a student to order his conduct well during school days and while upon the college premises. The every day life of the student must give evidence of growth in manly virtue and scholarly attainments. The widest personal freedom will be accorded to every one to do all that is good and right, and the fullest opportunity and the most abundant material possible will be furnished for this right doing, but whatever is unmanly and lowers one s self-respect will not be tolerated. Loitering in the streets and shops, the contracting of debts, and the spending of money foolishly, the use of profane, indecent or ungentle- manly language, all forms of dissipation, the spending of time in any place or in any company whose influence does not lead to a higher and better life, are some of the things which must be avoided by students. In short, we expect every student to see to it that every act of his does honor to himself and to the University ; to let his highest ambition and aim be to accomplish some noble purpose, both while a student and through life. Absolute promptness in attendance and in the performance of all duties will be required, not more for the good of the School than for its value to the student, as a habit. Besides the regular work of the day, two to three hours of study, at night, will be required of adult students, in good health. Students should enter at the beginning of the year (Sept. 22), but ARKANSAS INDUSTRIAL UNIVERSITY. 35 if this is impossible, they should enter at the beginning of some term, as classes cannot be formed during term time. All students will be required to enter upon some regular course of study, and they will not be permitted to depart from that course, except for good reasons. Absence, except for unavoidable causes, or leaving without the consent of the faculty, will forfeit the student’s membership. LITERARY SOCIETY. There is one Literary Society, the “ Clariosophic,” established, which is sustained with great interest, and furnishes valuable aid in the intellectual training of the student. LIBRARY. The University Library, though at this time small, comprises some valuable works. Valuable additions will be made from time to time. All students have free access to this Library free of charge. MUSIC. Special instruction in Vocal and Instrumental Music will be given, two lessons a week, by W. D. C. Botefuhr, Professor of Music, to such students as may desire it. Tuition, fifteen dollars per term. CONTRIBUTIONS are solicited for our Library, Reading Room, Laboratory and Museum. Any book, paper or manuscript of historical or other value. Any piece of Chemical, Philosophical or Mechanical apparatus. Any ores, crystals, precious or valuable stones, vegetable or animal fossils, or any other thing that will be a source of information to our students, will be thankfully received. We hereby designate and request County Superintendents of Public Schools, to take charge of and forward to the University, by students or others who may be coming, any of the above named donations.
