Show BEGINNING II AT'.IWERSITY The State Unlverslty-at Salt Lake City begins Its session this week. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, September Sep-tember 14th, 15th, and ICth, were registration days. Instruction begins Monday, September lSth. The prospects for the year are unusually un-usually bright. Last year tho Institution Insti-tution registered 900 students, 700 of collego graTIe and 200 of preparatory grade. Preparatory students will hot Increase, since the preparatory department, de-partment, now a secondary training school, is open only to holders of normal nor-mal scholarships. College students aro likely to lncrcaso fully 200, or even more, bringing the number of college studonts up to a total of nearly near-ly one thousand. These students distribute themselves them-selves fairly equally among tho schools of the unlverslt'. Students who wish a general training, fitting them for any occupation and for any occupation and for useful citizenship, enter the School of Arts and Sciences. Associated with this school is a department de-partment of law and a school of medicine, medi-cine, each providing two years of pre fesslonnl work and each drawing a larger and larger number of the young nion of Utah who look forward to law and medicine as a prqfesslon. The School of Mines gives courses In tho various kinds of engineering demanded demand-ed by the various industries of tho state. In the Normal School students are prepared for the position of teaching In both the high schools and the elementary schools of tho state. The Secondary Training school open onlv to holders of nor-i nor-i mal scholarships, gives high school iHf iiMhn nil i il 1 1 BMmfiirTrgritatir training which fits students for ad- 1 mission to enter anv fof the other I schools of the Institution ( Tho relative hard times throughout through-out tho state has Increased very greatly tho number of students v.ho need to earn all or a part of their expenses. Unlvorslty authorities aro making overy effort to secure om-ploypnent om-ploypnent for such studento and with such buccoss that they are prepared to say that no student who has ambition, am-bition, energy, nnd courage need deny himself the advantage of an education educa-tion on account of lack of funds. Tho University, as old practically as the state, has adapted Itself admirably ad-mirably to the Increasing educational demands of the state. It Is now a modern American university, supplying supply-ing the higher educational needs of a modern American commonwealth, and recognized everywhere as a standard stan-dard American university. nn |
