MANY OTHER SPLENDID SCHOOLS | The triteness of a truism s in statement that the University of braska is a great institution. But eve Ne- the | Nebraskan is glad to make this statement | and to repeat it and reiterate it The University of Nebraska forty-five years old, yet it ranks with much venerable institutions as the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. Tts grounds are fully as large as the Pennsylvania institution, its instructors are of as high standing, Its courses are {fully as complete. Its location is far Dbetter, its grounds more beautiful The number of students in the Nebraska fnstitution 1s now about equal to the mumber attending the university founded by B. Franklin. Nebraska's university, Ihoreover, has greater liberty than Penn- gylvania's, for in the latter most of the jourses are open only to men. At Ne- Draska all courses are open just as freely o women as to men and there is prac- tically no tuition fee to pay. The University of Nebraska started n 1870, giving & few courses in the clas- kics and the liberal arts. It has gone on from that until today it teaches all the Belences as well, and all the professions except theoloxy. is only Many Bulldings. ‘The material—brick and mortar #tone and wood equipment of this great Institution—is imposing in ftself the outward sign of the academic worth and the proof of a usefulness in the field and | of education that has been demonstrated | throughout the ycars of its existence, On its spaclous campus, loceicd ia the beart of the city of Lincoln, are seven- teen large and imposing bulldings—most of them In good repair—clustered closely ogether on & plot of ground four blocks area, which at this time of the year a veritable labyrinth of mottled flower- s, shrubs, lawns and trees. At the state farm are ten equally com- prodious and serviceable structures sit- pated on 820 acres of ground that with pxtensive oultivation is rapidly becoming phe garden epet of the state. In these bufldings are ibraries, laboratories and museums— verything that is needed to educate 4,000 tudents a year. To meet the university's urgent demand lor more room to accommodate its n- reasing number of students. the legisla- ure has authorized a three-quarter-mil y for six years, which has previded In 11 $2,000,000 for university improvement, tn.l which is now avallable for the uni- ersity’s use, Still Greater Growth, In view of what the University of Ne- mmkn now is, as seen by thd spectator 0 spends only a few hours within its tes, the spectacle of how great an in-!| titution it will be when $2,000,000 have een spent In enlarging its equipment and creasing its usefulness for the people f the state almost stifles the imagina- jon, Internally the university gives every pyidence of progress. It Is doing better ork every year. It Is constantly raising té educational standards, and the fact at it 18 doing so is recognized by com- éting universities of standing and repute, quirements for admission into the uni- ersity are higher than ever before; re- Direments for graduation, still higher. umbered among its faculty are men of écognized ability as teachers and not few who have a national reputation as :uthorlllu in their several lines; such emelnent scholars and men of science as n L. A. Sherman, the late Dean arles Bessey, and Dean O. V. P. Stout; d such noted jurists as Dean W. @& Tastings of the college of law, and Dr. win Maxey, a well known authority po international law.

The attention of the technical world ‘waa recently attracted to the University pf Nebraska by the addition to its equip- jment of one of the largest and most up- to-date engineering laboratories in the Wwest. The latest improgement is o beau- tiful and spacious bullding to be oceu- pled exclusively by the polotical sclence and law departments. The University of Nebraska not only furnishes instruction to those who come to its doors seeking it, but it_also ex- tends the advantage of higher education to those who cannot afford the time and ex- pense of years in college. Through cor respondence study, public lectures, hign school debates and the publication of pamphlets devoted to general information and welfare the university prepares many persons at home for lives of greater use- fulness.

SCH OWN D BY WOMAN. One of Nebraska's Oldest Business Colleges Conducted by Falr Sex. A young woman is the owner and man- | ager of one of the most successful busi- ness schools fn the country, the Van | Sant school, located on ths second floor of the Wead building, Fighteenth and Farna ots. It has a day school for women young and an evening school for young men and women Miss Tone C. Duffy is this young wo- man. Sho is herself 1 graduate of the school, finishing her course there in 1899, | Following her graduation she bLecame local office of a typewriter company. | Her abllity raised her quickly to the posi- | tion of assistant manager, a place which she held for several years until she found still larger flelds for her ability and energy. As a pupil Miss Duffy observed the methods of the Van sant school; as an employer of stenngraphers, she meas- ured the proficlency of its griduates; and as a director of a clerical employment bureau, she learned in what high regard the school and its graduates wore held by business men. Therafore, when Mr. Van Sant offered his school for sale in 1910, Misg Duffy wns & ready purchaser and becamo sole owner and nanager. “If this school were conducted purely | as a normaj training school,” said Miss| Dutfy, “we could place all cur ;radiates in good positions as teachers of stenog raphy, so well are they grounded, “A sclontific business .raining brings | double opportunities and doubly certain | results to teachers. "‘he teacher is as- of employment and satisfactory | salary either as teacher or stenographer. It is a well-known fact that competent business school teachers draw much larg- er salarles than those pald in puSlic school work." A beautiful {llustrated booklet about the school has been published for the information of prospective students. Tt is printed on fine coated paper and pro- fusely {llustrated, having pictures of A. C, Van Sant, the founder, Miss Duffy, the owner and a number of the teachers as well as various charming scenes from the school rooms. The frontisplece shows & view of the streets from the school showing the court house grounds and view down J"arnam street, Tho book is well written, beautifully printed and has a handsome embossed cover. 1t contains all information about the school, prices, history, methods, ete.
