THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 333184A ASTOR, LENOX AND TILDEN FOUNDATIONS Tufts College. ELMER H. CAPEN, D. D., President. R 1927 L The COLLEGE is situated on a beautiful eminence four miles from Boston, combining the advantages of country and city. It offers to the student in all its departments the best methods or instruction, and the various facilities requisite for a thorough education, at a very moderate cost. It was the first New England college to accept advanced French or German as equivalent for Greek in a course leading to the degree of A.B., and to offer the student so entering a full course in the Greek language. A new departure is the award of the bachelor's degree as the basis of attainment instead of the number of years spent in college. Great freedom of election is permitted in the new courses, which provide both for general culture and for specialization in a chosen subject and its related studies. REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION.

The rulers of the country, newly come into power, were casting about with energy, seeking where they might legislate into the rights and alter the constitution, and even the public documents, of the established church. First came the suppression of ten Irish bishoprics, in defiance of church opinion, and in open contempt of the protests of clergy and laymen alike. This was the culminating governmental outrage that began in the days of the Reform Bill. But the church had been gradually declining for a hundred years. In January of 1833, Arnold, of Oxford, said: "The church has been for one hundred. years without any government, and in such a stormy season it will not go on much longer without a rudder."
