There will be a re-union and opening exercises at 8 o'clock p. m. of that day at the College, 187 Second Avenue. Commencement will take place Thursday evening, March 20th, 1873. Examinations for matriculation will be conducted by the Facidty during the first week of attendance, and for advanced standing at the close of each session. The final examination for the degree of those approved by the Faculty will be con- ducted by the Board of Censors two weeks prior to commence- ment. The Dispensary attached to the College is open daily for the treatment of patients, and students are thus afforded the oppor- tunity of constantly observing and treating cases under the supervision of the Clinical Professor. The Hospital in the College Building affords every facility foi the study of obstetrical cases, and of chronic as well as acute diseases of women and children. "Without this actual observa- tion at the bedside of the patient, the study of disease from books would be of comparatively little value. The large Hospitals and Dispensaries of the city are also open to the stude#ts of this College, as well as the lectures of the Faculty. One of the most significant facts of this age is the spontaneous and universal movement of women towards a higher intellectual development — a movement not confined to our own country nor even to enlightened Europe, but which is extending to those be- nighted regions where the sex is kept in seclusion and in abject submission to man. A recent letter from England, says : " The late Sir James Simpson stood by the side of Professors Masson, Fawcett, Bal- four, Guthrie, Oliver, Marshall, and all the leading men of the leading I nivor>il ies of Kiimpe in favor of the complete equal- ity of the sexes in medical education." Whatever may he thought of the medical profession for wo- V men in Christian countries, there can be no doubt that it will be the most powerful auxiliary in the great missionary field of the world. Dr. Humphrey of the American Mission in India, aided by Hindoos of high rank, has established a school of medicine for women, and native Christian women completed their first year of study with such credit that they were put in charge of the female wards of the government hospitals and a grant was made by the government to aid in the erection of buildings for a new college. The General Assembly of the re-united Presbyterian Church, held in Philadelphia in May, 1870, passed resolutions in favor of increasing the staff of women as missionaries in those countries where the higher classes can only be reached by their own sex, and recommending the seeking out and commissioning those who, being otherwise fitted for the work, should be qualified to practice medicine.. We are happy in being able to join in giving testimony to the kindness shown our students in the public Hospitals, so well ex- pressed by the valedictorian of the last graduating class : " In our attendance upon clinics at the Hospitals and Dispen- saries of this city and Brooklyn, we cannot speak in too high praise of the uniformly kind and gentlemanly treatment we have received at the hands of the attending physicians and surgeons — Allopathic and Homoeopathic — and from the young gentlemen- students whom we met at those places. Such conduct was not passed by unnoticed or unappreciated. Those visits will be classed among the many pleasant reminiscences of our student life." The great discoveries and advances in every department of physical science within the last few years, require a correspond- ing advance in the standard of medical education; and, since the profession has been entered by women, it is of the highest im- portance that they should enjoy every posssible advantage in pursuing it. In accordance with this idea, the Faculty of the New York Medical College for Women, in common with other medical instructors, have decided that a more extended period of study and attendance upon lectures should be required, and they have divided and graded the studies as follows : 8 COURSE OF STUDY. First Year. — The first year will be devoted to Anatomy, (with much attention to demonstration,) Chemistry, Physiology, and Materia Medica. Junior Year. — The second year will be given to Anatomy, Materia Medica, Theory and Practice and Diseases of Women, and Chemistry (if not completed). Senior Year. — Surgery, Obstetrics, Medical Jurisprudence, practice under the supervision of the professor, with oral and written discussions of medical themes. In addition to didactic teaching, the students will hold recitations and quizzes at least twice every week. Dissections are required in the first and second, but not in the third year. Advanced pupils will be permitted to diagnose pathological . conditions, and treat cases of disease before the class in the pres- ence of a professor. The Supplementary or Spring Term will give opportunity for extra attention to practice, and such special subjects as Ophthal- motology, Obstetrical Surgery, Auscultation, Microscopic Exam- inations, etc. CLINICAL LECTURERS.
