The list has my approval and is as follows:

ANNUAL REPORT OP THE DEAN OP THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE.

CHICAGO, I I I . , June 11,1900. To the President and the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois: Numbers, The past year has been the most prosperous in the history of the College of Medicine. There were in attendance 579 students of medicine, as against 445 students of medicine and 69 temporary students of dental surgery the year before. Students, The relations between the men and women of the class were less discordant than during the previous year. Five men were suspended for misconduct and one woman was privately expelled for serious offenses. The relations between the men of the class and the young women of the West Division High School are extremely unwholesome. , It is hoped that they will be permanently disrupted before the close of another year. Faculty. For a year and a half or more there has been discord in the faculty, owing in large measure to intolerance on the part of some colleagues to the new methods of administration. These troubles are now happily and, I believe, permanently cured, and the faculty organization is stronger than ever before, not only in respect to unity of purpose, but also in regard to professional standing and efficiency. For a year past the faculty has been engaged with a project of reorganization of its own body'and of the curriculum of the College. The faculty list recommended below represents months of study and effort, and includes many changes. The resignation of several old teachers, the transposition of others, and the nomination of many new teachers will be noted, as well as some additions to the curriculum and some •changes in the naming of chairs.
