Book excerpt: Excerpt from President's Annual Report for the Year 1893-1894 Prof. James Seth, of Brown University, Doctor of Science. Harry C. Davis, Doctor of Humane Letters. The operations of the Graduate School have justified all the hopes under which it was originated and organized. The stu dents have prosecuted their advanced studies under the direction of learned professors, and all candidates for degrees have been subjected to the strictest scrutiny. The condition of residence in Washington has been made obligatory in all cases, that the contact between the mind of the teacher and of the scholar may be so close and constant as to assure thoroughness of direction and accuracy of study at all points. In advanced study and in original research it is all-important that the directive, the regu lative, and the corrective power of the superior instructor should be perpetually at the student's command, in order to assure the best possible results, and there is no inspiration like that which comes from the living mind of great teachers in quickening touch with receptive intellects. No degree has been conferred except on evidence authenticated by careful examinations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
