ing and a paper, which was something like the modern undergraduate term paper”. said Doctor Blackman. “Three years ago we had to write while the master degree was granulated ‘incursus’, a former of three years, in which the person conferred had a chance to acquire a year of study.” When students went north while in his work.”

School Grew Slowly
When Doctor Blackman took charge of the Graduate School, 14 student were carrled. The school grew slowly, as it was retarded by several influences. First, the extension on the university to new fields, which prevented the appropriation of self-professed students, took over second, the instructors were overburdened with undergraduate work, and had no time for the graduate work and third, the fact that the Gradient School was a young institution worked against it. Fewer graduate students concentrated here than in other schools. In spite of these disruptions, there was a growing European war, where nearly all the graduate students went into some form of the service.
After the war, the school picked up and had a larger enrollment than ever before. At the time of the resignation of Doctor BLOCK in 1922.
the enrollment had increased from o 375. This year it is expected exceed 700.
