 Criuty College, Harttord. 
 
 ¢ 
 
 TRINITY COLLEGE recognizes the Christian religion as 
 the true basis of a right education. 
 
 Her first care is, therefore, to provide for the instruc- 
 
 tion and training of her students in the knowledge, the 
 faith, and the practice of Christianity. By reference to 
 the prescribed course of study, it will be seen that this 
 work constitutes an integral and continuous portion of 
 her system of instruction. 
 . Her next care is to provide for what is regarded as 
 the special and appropriate business of a College Educa- 
 tion, a thorough Classical and Mathematical discipline, 
 together with a right apprehension and a practical mas- 
 tery of the English Language and Literature. 
 
 Full courses of Instruction are also given in the prin- 
 cipal Modern Languages—so useful in business and 
 society, so rich in literary treasures, and so conducive to 
 the expansion and cultivation of the mind;—while a 
 liberal share of attention is appropriated to the leading 
 departments of positive and practical knowledge; His- 
 tory, Taste and Criticism; Law, Philosophy, Science 
 and Art. 
 
 Thus the College aims to make her students good 
 Christians, good scholars, good citizens and good men. 
 
 Trinity College is a College of the Episcopal Church ; 
 but she welcomes to her bosom students of other Chris- 
 tian denominations. She respects their faith and their 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 6 
 
 feelings, and, while her own religious instruction, im- 
 parted in the spirit and under the forms of the Church, 
 is simply and positively Christian, she allows all her stu- 
 dents to attend Public Worship where their parents may 
 desire, and to enjoy the spiritual guidance of their own 
 religious teachers. 
 
 Trinity College is not a Theological Institution, nor 
 does it even comprehend any Theological department, 
 but is simply, a proper Christian College. Its name is 
 designed to attest forever the faith of its founders, and 
 their zeal for the perpetual glory and honor of the ONE 
 HoLy AND UNDIVIDED TRINITY. 
 
 To this brief statement must be added some account 
 of the internal organization and condition of the 
 College. 
 
 The Senatus ACADEMICUS consists of two houses, 
 known as the CorporaTION and the House or Convo- 
 CATION. 
 
 The CorporaTION, on which the other house is 
 wholly dependent, and to which, by law, belongs the 
 supreme control of the college, consists of not more 
 than twenty-four trustees, resident within the State of 
 Connecticut; the Chancellor and President of the 
 College being ex offictis members, and the Chancellor 
 being ez officio President of the same. They have 
 authority to fill their own vacancies; to appoint to 
 offices and professorships; to direct and manage the 
 funds for the good of the College; and in general, to 
 exercise the powers of a Collegiate Society, according 
 to the provisions of the charter. 
 
7 
 
 The House or Convocation consists of the Fellows 
 and Professors of Trinity College, with all persons who 
 have received any academic degree whatever in the 
 same, except such as may lawfully be deprived of their 
 privileges. 
 
 Its business is such as may from time to time be 
 delegated by the Corporation, from which it derives its 
 existence; and is, at present, limited to consulting and 
 advising for the good of the College; nominating the 
 Junior Fellows, and all candidates for admission ad 
 eundem; making laws for its own regulation; propos- 
 ing plans, measures or counsel to the Corporation; and 
 to instituting, endowing and naming, with concurrence 
 of the same, professorships, scholarships, prizes, medals, 
 and the like. 
 
 The CHANCELLOR is the Bishop of the Diocese of 
 Connecticut, and is also the Visitor of the College. 
 
 The PrestpENT. This officer, as his title imports, 
 is the resident head and Rector of the College, and 
 with the Proctors, who are the two senior Professors, 
 the Executive of all laws for the discipline of under- 
 eraduates. 
 
 The Fettows. There are six Fellows appointed by 
 the Corporation alone; and six Junior Fellows, who 
 must be Masters of Arts, appointed by the Corporation 
 on nomination of Convocation; and these together 
 make the Board of Fellows. To this Board the Cor- 
 poration commits the superintendence of the strictly 
 academical business of the College; of the course of 
 study and examinations; of the College laws; of col- 
 legiate dress, and the like; and also certain powers and 
 privileges in recommending for degrees. Hach Fellow 
 and Junior Fellow is elected for three years; but there 
 _is no emolument connected with the office, besides a 
 
 
 
8 
 
 provision for necessary expenses incurred in its dis- 
 charge. The Fellows, therefore, under existing laws, 
 are not ordinarily resident. 
 
 The DEAN oF Convocation presides in that House, 
 and is elected by the same biennially. 
 
 The Proressors hold their appointments from the 
 Corporation, and by lectures and otherwise, instruct in 
 their several departments. With the President and 
 Tutors, they also form a board of government and 
 control ever the under-graduates. . 
 
 Tutors and Lecturers are appointed from time to 
 time by the Corporation, to assist the Professors in the 
 several departments of instruction. Private Tutors 
 have no recognized character as officers of the College. 
 
 ScHOLARSHIPS. These are permanent endowments, 
 held by certain under-graduates according to the terms 
 of their foundation, and paying stipends of different 
 amounts to their incumbents. 
 
 Hats. There are three buildings belonging to the 
 College, which, in 1845, received the names of the first 
 three Bishops of the Diocese. SraBury HALL, erected 
 in 1825, contains the Chapel and the Library, Cabinet, 
 and other public chambers. Jarvis HALL, erected in 
 the same year, and BrowNeELL HALL, erected in 1845, 
 contain rooms for the officers and students; and a wing 
 of each is the residence of a professor and his family. 
 
 The GROUNDS, on which the Halls are erected, are 
 an area of fourteen acres, laid out with walks, and 
 ornamented with shade-trees and shrubbery. The 
 site is elevated, overlooking on one side the city of 
 Hartford, within the limits of which the grounds are 
 situated, and on the other the Little River, (a branch 
 of the Connecticut,) which forms their western bound- 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 9 
 
 ary. ‘The river is suitable for boating and for exercise 
 in swimming. 
 
 THe Liprary, CABINET AND APPARATUS. There are 
 about six thousand volumes in the Library in Seabury 
 Hall; in which are also the portraits of several officers 
 and benefactors of the College. Two Funds have been 
 recently established for the increase of the Library; the 
 Elton Fund of 5,000 dollars, the gift of John P. Elton, 
 Hsq., of Waterbury; and éhe Sheffield Fund, consisting 
 of 5,000 dollars in the stock of the New Haven and 
 Northampton Railroad Company, the gift of Joseph E. 
 Sheffield, Esq., of New Haven. There are two libraries 
 belonging to the societies of under-graduates, containing 
 an aggregate of six thousand volumes. The cabinet is 
 an extensive collection of minerals and geological speci- 
 mens, to which has lately been added an extensive 
 collection of shells. <A valuable philosophical apparatus 
 is distributed through the lecture rooms of the several 
 Professors requiring its aid in their instructions. The 
 Chemical Department has just been thoroughly reor- 
 ganized, the Laboratory remodelled, and the apparatus 
 greatly enlarged by extensive purchases in Europe. 
 
 Terms. There are three terms in the year, of from 
 twelve to fourteen weeks each; during which every 
 under-graduate is required to be resident, unless under 
 special dispensation from the President. 
 
 EXAMINATIONS. These are held at the end of each 
 term, in presence of examiners appointed by the Fellows, 
 from their own number or otherwise; and every under- 
 graduate is required to be present and sustain his pre- 
 scribed examinations at such times, unless a special 
 examination is allowed for sufficient causes. 
 
 Vacations. The Christmas vacation istwo weeks 
 from the Thursday preceding Christmas day. The 
 
 2 
 
 
 
10 
 
 Easter vacation is three weeks from the close of Lent 
 term. The Midsummer vacation is eight weeks from 
 Commencement day. | 
 
 Exurpitions. Junior exhibition occurs at the close 
 of Lent term; exhibitions of the literary societies, at 
 such times as are deemed most convenient. 
 
 CoMMENCEMENT. The third Thursday in July is 
 Commencement day. On the day preceding, the Cor- 
 poration and House of Convocation assemble, and an 
 address and poem are publicly pronounced before the 
 latter. On this day all applications for admissions 
 ad eundem come before Convocation; and the annual 
 elections of Fellows and Junior Fellows are usually 
 held on this day, or on the morning following. On 
 Commencement day, candidates for degrees perform 
 appointed exercises in public; and all degrees are con- 
 ferred and announced with prescribed forms. 
 
 Decrees. The corporation is authorized by its char- 
 ter to confer degrees in the arts, and in the faculties of 
 Law, Medicine and Divinity. Nominations for degrees 
 may come from the Fellows and Professors, or from the 
 House of Convocation; but the candidates are admitted 
 only by vote of the Corporation, and all degrees are 
 publicly conferred in its name, by the President. 
 
 Degrees in the faculties of Divinity and Law are con- 
 ferred, at present, either in course, honoris causa, or on 
 admission ad eundem. For the degree of Bachelor of 
 Arts, the candidate must have sustained all his exami- 
 nations, and paid all fees and charges; and must be 
 nominated to the Corporation by the Fellows and the 
 Faculty of Arts. To proceed Master of Arts, a like 
 nomination is requisite at a period of not less than 
 three years after commencing Bachelor. Masters may 
 proceed Bachelors in either of the Faculties, at the end 
 
 ¢ 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 11 
 
 of seven years, upon the certificate of the Board of Fel- 
 lows, grounded on examination and the recommenda- 
 tion of the Chancellor and the President of the College. 
 Bachelors in either of the Faculties may proceed Doc- 
 tors in the same, at the expiration of three years, on 
 the recommendation of the Chancellor, accompanied 
 with a certificate of examiners, and a satisfactory thesis 
 composed by the candidate. Degrees honoris causé ap- 
 pertain to the Corporation only. 
 
 Applications for degrees in course are required, by 
 statute, to be made to the President of the College, 
 during Lent Term. They cannot be received after the 
 Senior Examination in Trinity Term.

 REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION. 
 
 CANDIDATES for admission to the Freshman Class will 
 be examined in the following studies. 
 
 Klements of Ancient History and Geography, Arith- 
 metic, Algebra to Quadratic Equations, and two Books 
 in Plane Geometry. | 
 
 Latin Grammar, the structure and scanning of Hex- 
 ameter Verse, twelve chapters in Arnold’s Prose Com- 
 position, Sallust, Cicero’s Select Orations, the Eclogues 
 of Virgil, one Book of the Georgics, and six Books of 
 the Aineid. 
 
 Greek Grammar and writing Greek with the accents, 
 Jacob’s, Colton’s, or Felton’s Greek Reader entire, and

 The Latin Grammar of Andrews and Stoddard, the 
 Greek Grammar of Sophocles, and Arnold’s First Greek 
 Book are recommended as Elementary Books. 
 
 Instead of any of the text books above enumerated, 
 others equivalent will be received. The Examination

 Candidates for an advanced standing, must sustain a 
 further examination on those studies which have been 
 read by the class they propose to enter. 
 
 No student can be admitted to the Freshman Class 
 before he has completed his fifteenth year. 
 
 All candidates for admission must present satisfactory 
 testimonials of good moral character; and those who 
 are from other Colleges must produce certificates of 
 dismission in good standing.

 UNIVERSE Y STUDENTS. 
 
 Provision has been made in the College Statutes, that 
 those students who desire to omit certain of the studies 
 prescribed for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, may be 
 permitted to recite with the regular classes, in such 
 studies as, upon examination, they shall be found qual- 
 ified to pursue. They are expected to attend at least 
 three recitations or lectures daily. They are subject to 
 the same rules and enjoy the same privileges as the reg- 
 ular students; and, on leaving, are entitled to a certificate 
 from the President, stating the time they were members 
 of College, and the studies pursued during that time. 
 
 In certain cases, the degree of Bachelor of Science 
 may be conferred.

 GOVERNMENT AND DISCIPLINE. 
 
 The Goverment is administered by the President and 
 Professors. It is designed,to be mild and paternal—ap- 
 pealing to the better feelings of the heart, and aiming 
 to prevent, rather than punish misconduct. Punish- 
 ments involving public disgrace are resorted to with 
 reluctance. Ifa student does not conduct himself to 
 the satisfaction of the Faculty, his parent or guardian 
 will be promptly informed of it, and if it is judged 
 necessary, requested to remove him from the Institution, 
 In cases where dispatch is important, the delinquent 
 will be privately dismissed. 
 
 An accurate daily account of the proficiencies of 
 every student, and also of his delinquencies,—if any 
 occur,—is kept; an abstract of which is transmitted to 
 his parent or guardian at the close of each term. 
 
 PUBLIC WORSHIP. 
 
 Prayers are attended every morning and evening in 
 the College Chapel, when all the students are required 
 to be present. They are also required to attend public 
 worship on the Lord’s Day, either in the Chapel, or at 
 such places as their parents or guardians may desire. 
 
 EXPENSES. 
 
 For tuition, $13 per term; for room rent, $4.50 per 
 term; for the use of the Library, for sweeping rooms, 
 ringing the bell, fuel for recitation rooms, and printing, 
 $4 per term; all payable in advance. Besides the 
 above, there will be occasional assessments for damages, 
 extra printing, or other common expenses. 
 
 Students admitted to an advanced standing, unless 
 from other Colleges, are required to pay $10 for each 
 

 
 37 
 
 year of such advancement; and, for a shorter time than 
 one year, in proportion. 
 
 The students reside in the College, and provide for 
 themselves bed and bedding, furniture for their rooms, 
 fuel, candles, stationery and washing. Books and furn- 
 iture may be sold, when the student has no further use 
 for them, at a moderate reduction from the original cost. 
 
 No Commons are established, as it is preferred that 
 the students should board in private families, in the 
 neighborhood of the College. Good board can now be 
 procured for from $2.00 to $3.00 per week. 
 
 Provision has been made, by special benefactions, for 
 remitting their tuition to all indigent students who are 
 communicants in the Protestant Episcopal Church. 
 The necessary College expenses of such, exclusive of 
 personal expenses, for clothing, fuel, furniture, &c., are 
 as follows: 
 
 
 
 Board, : : ’ . $100.00 per year. 
 Room rent, ‘ ; 13,00, Ay 8 
 Use of Library, eet ee Print- 
 ing, &c., , : ; 12.00 
 Assessment for public ghescnen Xe., 4.50 
 TOtArS : . $130.00 
 
 To prevent extravagant or improper expenditures, it 
 is recommended that all funds designed for the use of 
 students should be placed in the hands of the College 
 Bursar, who superintends their expenses with a parental 
 discretion. The present Bursar is A. JAcKSON, M. A., 
 Professor of Moral and Intellectual Philosophy.

 Tus Society was organized in the year following the 
 foundation of the College. 
 
 The Constitution was framed by a committee consist- 
 ing of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Brownell, Professor G. W. 
 Doane, (now Bishop of New Jersey,) and others. 
 
 At the weekly meetings each member takes part ‘in 
 the exercises, consisting of Declamation, Composition 
 and Extemporaneous Debate. 
 
 The Library, which is constantly increasing, contains 
 at present about four thousand volumes, and is rich in 
 the Classics, works on Theology, Law, Poetry, Belles 
 Lettres, and the Standard Literature of the day. 
 
 The officers for the present (Lent) term, are 
 
 President, EK. J. Purpy. Vice-President, J. Huec. 
 Censor, G. S. Mautory. 1st Councillor, O. K. Gorpon. 
 2d Councillor, H. K. Leaver. Secretary, G. R. HAtL-

 Honorary members, together with a history of the Soci- 
 ety, and a classification of the books in the Library, may 
 be obtained by addressing the Librarian. 
 
 
 
Che Marthenon, 
 
 Tus Society was formed in 1827, by nineteen mem- 
 bers from the Athenaeum; among whom were Park 
 Benjamin, Esq., and the Rev. Caleb 8. Ives, late Mission- 
 ary to Texas. 
 
 From the time of its foundation the Society has stead- 
 ily advanced, both in numbers and in spirit. In the 
 Weekly Meetings all Members take part in the Exercises, 
 which consist of Orations, Declamations, Compositions, 
 Forensic Discussions and Extemporaneous Debates. The 
 Library now contains upwards of two thousand and 
 eight hundred volumes, and is also supplied with the 
 leading Reviews and Periodicals of the day. 
 ~ Public Exhibitions are occasionally held, which have 
 reflected credit upon the Society, and have served to 
 stimulate the members to renewed exertions. 
 
 Upon the whole the Parthenon was never in a more 
 flourishing condition than at present; her Sons aiming 
 more and more to realize their motto— 
 
 ‘¢POSSUNT QUIA POSSE VIDENTUR.”’
