48 Illinois Industrial University. MISCELLANY. DRAWING. Complete Courses in Geometrical and Projection, Architectural Engineering, Mechanical and Free-hand Drawing are given. FREEHAND DRAWING is given by personal instruction in the execution, with pencil and crayon, of " studies " by celebrated French and German artists, and in drawing from plaster models and other objects. The selections are made from a large and valuable stock purchased in Europe. Painting in Oil and Water colors will be provided for. MUSIC. Instruction is provided for on the Piano and Organ. This is charged for at the rate of $10 for term of 20 lessons; and if a University instrument is used for practicing, the charge per term for such use is $2 for each hour daily practice. The class meets weekly for public practice, and at the end of the term they are examined in public and marked, as in the other classes. EXAMINATIONS. Frequent examinations will be held to test progress in study, and to determine each student's fitness to remain in his classes. The University insists on thoroughness in its own proper studies. Regular examinations of all the classes are made at the close of each term. A record is kept of the standing of each student, and from this his final certificate of graduation is made up. CERTIFICATES. Under the law, any one who remains a year at the University, and maintains a satisfactory standing in his studies and in character, is entitled, on leaving the University, to a certificate of studies and standing. The full certificate of the University will be given to those only who have satisfactorily completed a four years' course in some one of the colleges. Each certificate will state the college and course pursued, the actual studies taken, and the number of terms, with standing in each marked on a scale of 100. Hence, each diploma will have just so much value as the student shall have given it, by a more or less thorough mastery of his studies.
