The philosophical department would extend its influence and inform the students far better of its work if a pamphlet describing the courses could be published. Several of the departments notably the more popular, have shown commendable interest in this particular in past years and their success speaks well for the custom. At present a student can only gain a more intimate knowledge of the philosophical course at the expense of considerable time and trouble. A pamphlet similar to that issued by the Natural History department, for example, could not fail to interest many in a department which is at present somewhat exclusive. A concise explanation of the purposed work of each course would lay more stress on the work of the department as a whole than can at present be expected.
