The members present were Messrs. Bennett, Bullard, Cobb, Harker, McKay, McLean, and Shawhan; absent, Governor Fifer, and Messrs. Clemens, Edwards, Haskell, and Millard. The minutes of the last meeting were corrected and approved. The Kegent then presented his report, as follows: REGENT'S REPORT. To the Trustees of the University of Illinois. GENTLEMEN: I t is again permitted to report t h a t the year drawing to its close may he considered t h e most prosperous in the history of t h e University. The attendance has heen large, the order commendable. T h e influence of t h e large senior class has been wholesome and helpful. Thanks in a large measure are due to Professor Burrill for t h e prompt and kind manner in which he took upon himself the burdens laid upon him in the absence of the Regent, and for the careful and efficient discharge thereof. I n this, as could have been predicted, he had t h e cordial aid of the whole Faculty. The condition of the University in all its departments, on the return of t h e Begent, was most gratifying. The number of the graduating class, 44, has not heretofore been surpassed. Two are candidates for advanced degrees. Two take degrees in two courses, a thing which has not hitherto occurred. Seven only take certificates; this indicates t h a t the action of the Trustees, which will not recognize this form of graduation after next year, was but following t h e trend of affairs already operative. Twelve received the Governor's commissions in the Illinois National Guard as diplomas in t h e military department. D E G R E E S , CERTIFICATES A N D COMMISSIONS.
