The University Attendance

The University calendar, just being published, gives the number of students in the University at 2,420, an increase of of 263 over last year. The increase has been largely in the literary department, which this year has 168 more students on its roll than it had last year. The medical department has not fallen off in attendance although the course has been extended to four years, which of course will reduce the attendance from what it would have been had the old requirements for graduation been retained. But it must necessarily raise the grade of the graduates to whom problems of life and death will be intrusted. The senior class in the law department is only seven smaller than the junior class was last year, and it is by far the largest ever graduated here. The attendance on the homeopathie department is stationary. Below is given a table showing the comparative attendance this year and last in the various departments.
