30 University of Illinois. Colleges from the older institutions of this country. It embraces four Colleges, which are subdivided into Schools. A School is understood to embrace the course of instruction needful for some one profession or vocation. Schools that are cognate in character and studies, are grouped in the same College. The following are the Colleges and Schools : I. COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE. II. COLLEGE-OF ENGINEERING. School of Mechanical Engineering. School of Architecture. School of Civil and Mining Engineering. III. IV. COLLEGE OF NATURAL SCIENCE. School of Natural History. School of Chemistry. COLLEGE OF LITERATURE AND SCIENCE. School of English and Modern Languages. School of Ancient Languages. V. ADDITIONAL SCHOOLS. School of Art and Design. School of Military Science. Vocal and Instrumental Music are also taught, but not as parts of any regular course. CHOICE OF STUDIES. From the outset, the University has permitted great freedom in the selection of studies. It is, however, necessarily required : that the student shall be thoroughly prepared to enter and to keep pace with the classes in the chosen studies, and that he shall take these studies in the terms in which they are taught. Candidates for a degree must take the course of study prescribed for that degree. Each student is expected to have three distinct studies, affording three class exercises each day. On special request, the Faculty may allow less or more. No change in studies may be made after the beginning of a term without permission of the Faculty.
