PEDAGOGY The work of the department of pedagogy is designed for those who desire a more thorough and philosophic knowledge of the principles and practice of teaching than can be gained from the other means of professional preparation furnished by the state. It seeks to give a comprehensive insight into school education, its phases, and problems; and thus to be of special service to those who may hold positions in school work. The course is elastic, and, in so far as possible, will be adjusted to suit the needs of the students who take the work. PHILOSOPHY The work in this department includes history of philosophy, metaphysics, ethics, and logic, and is so arranged that the student may take a continuous course for either one or two years. The courses are planned to meet the needs of those who make philosophy their specialty, and also of those who desire an acquaintance with the subject as a means of general culture. It is the constant aim to emphasize the meaning and interest of philosophy and the relations of its problems to the life of man. PHYSICAL TRAINING The work of this department is offered to all students in the University. Consequently the department properly belongs in all the colleges. A full description of its aim and scope is given farther on.
