The re culrenients tor. entrance- were much ; the same as they are now in English and mathematics, but they; were added to in requiring am amount of Greek and j Latin that made the listening stu dents gasp with astonishment. The I total of the two Included several ot tho classics, of those two languages. p la those days, people did not ask ' of what use was . a college education of the subjects taught, but they thought of an ed nested main j as one who could reel off line upon line of the dead lan guage poetry or other divisions of ! literature. 1 I i Fence About Campus The university in the early days j had a high , board fence about the campus. ' The women of jthe college went to what was known as "Women's -college" which was : located north of Court! streets northwest of the capitol building. There were but 22 students in the . university but the academy and those 22 totalled over 350 students who nearly filled the chapel in the seats of that time, i Chapel services were always the! same unless an extraordinary person such , as a missionary from India or China came and then he or she was persuaded to make a few remarks. Otherwise chapel services consisted ot per haps a hymn, ia prayer, another hymn, a chapter from the Bible read by the , president and un- Arbuthnot and C. G. Rue. Committee appointments 'for the; council were: Judiciary, E. W. Garver, Dr. C. R. Wilson, C. A. Reynolds; finance committee, J. F. Conrad, E. W.
