Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

At a Meeting of the President ami Frlloirs of Yale College, Sept. 11, 1827, the following 7csoh(tivn was passed :T hat His Excellency Governor Tomlinson, Rev. President Day, Rev. Dr. Chapin, Hon. Noyes Darling, and Rev. A bel Mc Evven, be a committee to inquire into the expediency ot so altering the regular course of instruction in this college, as to leave out of said course the study of the dead languages, substituting other studies therefor; and either requiring a competent knowledge of said languages, as a condition of admittance into the college, or providing instruction in the same, for such as shall choose to study them after admittance ;and that the said committee be requested to report at the next annual meeting of this corporation. This committee, at their first meeting in A pril, 1828, after taking into consideration the ca ereferred to them, requested the Faculty of the college to express their views on the subject of the resolution. The expediency of retaining the ancient languages, as an essential part of our course of instruction, is so obviously connected with the object and plan of education in the college, that justice could not be done to the particular subject of inquiry in the resolution, without a brief statement of the nature and arrangement of the various branches of the whole system. The report of the faculty was accordingly made out in two parts; one containing a summary view of the plan of education in the college; tlie other, an inoniry into the expediency of insisting on the study of the ancient languages.
