ANNOUNCEMENT OF COURSES.
MATHEMATICS.
The work in this department is planned to meet the needs of
two classes of students— those who will use the various subjects
in after life and those who will not. For those who are to be
accountants, engineers, scientists and architects, the elementary
branches are supplanted by rigid courses in Geometry, Trig¬
onometry, Higher Algebra, and the principles of Calculus and
Analytics.
The subjects are considered with special reference to those
theorems and formulas which will serve the student in his chosen
work. A more exhaustive study of the higher branches is reserved
for those who from a natural disposition cr from a determination
to teach Mathematics, may elect further work to broaden their
view and to give them a sure grasp upon the subject.
For that large class of students who are not to make Mathemat¬
ics a specialty, the subjects are prescribed with reference to devel¬
oping the power of clear, connected, logical thought.
To this class Mathematics is purely a drill in reasoning, and is
the laboratory for the theories in logic.
The work begins properly in the Preparatory Department, ex¬
tending through three years, and is followed by one year in the
Normal Department. With the second year class, Algebra is be¬
gun, and the essentials are finished in two years, leaving the
higher work for the Fourth Normal and Freshman years. The
fourth-year Normal Class begins Plane Geometry in the Fall
Term and covers the subject by the end of the Winter Term. The
Spring Term is given to the study of Constructions and practical
applications. Solid Geometry and Conic Sections follow in the
Freshman year, leaving Analytics, Calculus and other branches to
the Sophomore, Junior and Senior years, as elected.
The work is facilitated by a careful selection of models and
texts, and the standard of scholarship is raised whenever possible.
The department aims at three results: Good language, concise
statement, and logical thought.
56 Agricultural and Mechanical College.
NATURAL AND F HYSICAL SCIENCE.
The aim and purpose of the work in the Scientific Department
is to give the student a useful and practical knowledge of the
branches taught, as well as a knowledge of the higher and more
advancedph ases of the subjects—first, to prepare the student for
practical, everyday life; secondly, to give him an inspiration for
the higher and professional life.
ASTRONOMY.
The elements of Desciiptive Astronomy are studied in the fall
and winter terms of the Senior college year. The work comprises
the practical features of the subject, with observations and lec¬
tures. Reference book, Young.
PHYSICS.
The elements of Physics are begun by the third-year Normal
Class, and are pursued during the fall and winter terms. Labora¬
tory practice, daily recitations, and lectures comprise the work.
Appropriate apparatus is used for experimenting. Reference
books: Avery, Apphton and Gage.
General Physics is studied in the Junior College year. It em¬
braces experiments, lectures and recitations. Mechanics, Sound
and Optic, one term; Heat, Magnetism and Electricity, one term.
Reference books: Gage, Ames.
CHEMISTRY.
Inorganic Chemistry.—The elements of Inorganic Chemistry
are taken up during the fall term of the fourth Normal year, and
continued during two terms. The work consists of lectures, reci¬
tations, and laboratory practice. Reference books: Yago, Wil¬
liams, Pemcen, Shepherd.
Qualitative Analysis.—This embraces experiments illustrating
the preparations and properties of a number of elements and com¬
pounds, systematic analysis of unknowns, simple and complex
substances.
The elements of Inorganic and Organic Chemistry are taken up
more extensively in the Freshman year of the college course. Ref"
erence books: Storr, Lindsay and Remsen.
Agricultural and Mechanical College. 57
GEOLOGY.
The elements of Botany are taken up in the third Normal year,
and continued one term. The work consists of field work, lec¬
tures, and recitations. Reference books: Dana, Steele, LaConte.
More advanced work is taken up in the Junior year.
BIOLOGY.
The elements of Botany are taken up in the third Normal year.
The work comprises lectures, field work and plant analysis. Her¬
bariums of plants are made by members of the class.
Advanced work is taken up in the Freshman year, embracing
structural Botany, with a study of the morphology of certain types
of the Cryptograms. Reference books : Gray, Bergen, Bessy, and
Baily.
The elements of Zoology are taken up in the first Normal year.
The work partakes of the form of nature study, and a careful
examination is made of the forms from life. Systematic Zoology,
Histology and Anatomy comprise the work of the Junior year.
EQUIPMENT.
The Chemical, Physical and Biological Laboratories are equipped
with apparatus and supplies for practice and special study.
ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE.
An attempt has been made to offer an especially strong course
in English Literature and Language. Four years' preparatory
work in technical Grammar is provided in the English Primary
and Preparatory Schools.
In the first Normal year the work in technical English Grammar
is completed, the study continuing throughout the year.
In the second Normal year Rhetoric is begun, also the study of
Elementary Classics. Very little actual study is done here as to
style, composition, devices, characteristics, etc., the object being
to familiarize the students with what is best in the English lan¬
guage not beyond their grasp in theme or treatment.
Themes are given, and work net exceeding a paragraph is done
daily. The paragraph is studied, since it embodies all the princi-
58
Ac.ki cultural and Mechanical College.
pies of longer compositions. Lectures are given on this work,
and the theoretical work given previously in Rhetoric is impressed
by this daily practice.
In the fourth Normal year a systematic study of English Litera¬
ture is begun. In the desire to avoid the study of literary biog¬
raphy simply, certain authors are studied as types of their age.
Contemporary authors are briefly studied in connection with these.
The student finishes the Normal course with a good idea of what
is best in English Literature—a love for good reading and a prac¬
tical knowledge of good writing.
SECTION OF LIBRARY.
In the Freshman college year a comprehensive and critical study
of Literature is entered upon. The structure of the paragraph,
with regard to unity, mass and coherence, is considered. Themes
are written developing these adjuncts to gocd English.
In the Sophomore year the work is devoted to style and form
with regard to clearness, force and elegance. Authors—particu¬
larly Macauley, Carlyle and De Quincey—a^e critically studied
with these points in view.
Agricultural and Mechanical College.
59
Tn the Junior college year courses are offered on the development
of the English novel, the Renaissance, and Elizabethan literature.
These courses are offered alternate y^ars.
The Senior college class has courses in the study of Old Eng¬
lish, Chaucer, Poets of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
—to occur alternate years. The whole course is designed to pre¬
pare students to enjoy and appreciate anything in the whole range
of English Literature.
LATIN.
The study of the Latin larguage is hegi n in the second year
of the Normal course, and is continued through the Sophomore
year of the College, giving the student who completes the College
course the advantage of five years', and to the one finishing the
Normal that of three years' study of Latin.
The first year of the course is divided into primary work and
elementary composition, laying the foundation for the work of the
succeeding years.
The second year (which is the third year of the Normal course)
comprises the study of Caesar's Helvetian War, attention being
given also to syntax, and to the review of declensions and conju¬
gations.
In the fourth Normal year the fir^t term's work includes trans¬
lations from Gellius, making the student acquainted with Roman
tradition. Syntactical forms, such as occur in the reading, are
taken up and discussed. The second and third terms of this year
are devoted to the study of Cicero's Orations against Catiline, to¬
gether with the history of the conspiracy of Cataline, the life and
political career of Cicero and some of his contemporaries.
The first term of the Freshman year is occupied with the read¬
ing of the "yEneid" of Virgil and a study of Meter and Roman
Mythology. Cicero's Essay on "Old Age" comprises the second
term's work, in which a close study is made of the line of argu¬
ment throughout this discourse, and the plan upon which it is
written. Inthe third term, in connection with the Odes of Hor¬
ace, a study is made of Roman Literature, especially that of the
Augustian Age.
60
Agricultural and Mechanical College,
In the Sophomore year the study of Latin is confined to the his¬
torical works of Livy and Taci.us, the former covering the first
and second terms; the latter, the third.
These studies are supplemented by reference to other writers of
Roman history.
Aside from the fact that students may desire to pursue higher
work in the study of the Latin language, there may be others who
desire a broadening of the intellect by a continued study of Latin,
SECTION OF DINING ROOM.
and yet others of whom a rigid course in the Department of Sci¬
ence demands such a knowledge. It is the plan of the course
above described to accommodate all these.
PEDAGOGY.
One of the aims of the Institution is to make the students feel,
as soon as they begin work in the Normal Course, the need of
work along professional lines.
Agricultural and Mechanical College. 61
The spirit of every Xormal student should be not only that of
an earnest seeker after knowledge, but also that of an inquirer as
how best to impart knowledge to children.
When teachers and students are imbued with this spirit, the
Normal work will become distinctively professional.
For this purpose pedagogy will be taught through three years
of the course, beginning with the second-year Normal.
In addition to this special course, the teachers of the Institution
will make all recitations model ones, paying attention to all the
underlying principles of pedagogy. Students will have practical
work in the Training School under experienced critic teachers.
Students will not be graduated from this course until they show
some proficiency in thA art of teaching.
The course is open to graduates from other institutions.

GENERAL INFORMATION.
HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL, LOCATION, BUILDINGS,
ETC.
This Institution was organized in May, 1875. At that time it
had an annual appropriation of only one thousand dollars, and a
Faculty of two teachers. The attendance was about sixty pupils.
In 1878 the annual appropriation was doubled, the teaching
force was increased, and the Institution began to flourish and at¬
tract general attention for the great good it was doing in prepar¬
ing teachers for their responsible profession.
In 1882, through self-denial on the part of the Principal and his
corps of teachers, strict economy in expending the annual appro¬
priations, by aid of the Peabody and Slater Funds, and individual
donations from friends of the school, a lot was purchased in one
of the most desirable locations in Huntsville, and buildings were
erected for school purposes. In order to accomplish this the
teachers taught for less t1^an half salaries. The document which
they drew up and signed, donating their salaries to the State for
the benefit of the race, is a part of the records of the school, and
a witness of their own devotion and consecration to t>ie education
of the Negro. This property was deeded to the State of Ala¬
bama, in trust for Negro education. From this time the school
has had a marvelous growth.
About this time industrial work was begun in connection with
the literary work. A sewing room was equipped, where the girls
were taught plain and fancy sewing, cutting and fitting; the boys
received instruction in printing, carpentering, mattress making,
and gardening. From the printing office was issued a weekly
paper—"The Normal Index." The boys in the carpenter shop
made all the furniture used in the school.
The school continued in this way until 1885, when the Legisla¬
ture of Alabama, seeing the gocd being done and the
grand results being obtained from such limited resources, in¬
creased the annual appropriation to four thousand dollars, and
made it the industrial school for the Negroes of Alabama. On
68

this appropriation the school has grown, gradually enlarging in
usefulness and increasing in facilities. Its graduates are in great
demand all over the country.
In 1891 the Legislature of Alabama made this school the ben¬
eficiary of the fund granted by Act of Congress, approved on Au¬
gust 30, 1890, "to the more complete endowment and support of
the colleges for the benefit of agriculture and mechanic arts."
After this congressional appropriation the commissioners of
the school thought it best to sell the valuable property in Hunts-
ville, and invest the proceeds in land farther removed from the
VIEW OF RECEPTION ROOM.
town, where there would be more and better opportunities to de¬
velop the industries of the sc' o~;l. Accordingly, an Act was passed
by the Legislature of Alabama authorizing the sale of the prop¬
erty, and the Ccmm'ssioners then purchased one hundred and
eighty-two acres of land This properly is situated on the Merid-
ianville Pike, about four miles north of Huntsville, and at a point
where the Southern Railway and the Nashville, Chattanooga and
St. Louis Railway run parallel, only a short distance apart, mak¬
ing this location unsurpassed as to accessibility.
Agricultural and Mechanical College;. 69
Having- all the requisites for the site of a great educational in¬
stitution, the place seems to have been especially designed by na¬
ture for that purpose. It is situated on an elevation about five
hundred feet above the city of Huntsville, beyond the reach of
lurking malaria and contagious diseases—cool and pleasant in
summer and temperate in winter. It has two spring's which fur-
ni.-h pure water; two bored wells, ami waterworks of its own,
bringing abundant supply from the famous Huntsville Big
Spring.
CLASS IN MECHANICAL DRAWING.
At the time of the purchase of the new location, there were
standing one dwelling house of eight rooms, a commodious barn,
and several outhouses and cabins. The main dwelling, a typical
Southern one, is rich in historic lore. It was-at one time a famous
inn, and near by was an equally famous race course, in: that day
known for miles and miles around. It was "Green Bottom Inn,"
or "Connelly's Race Track." Gen. Andrew Jackson and his
friends have lodged and eaten here, and watched the trials in the
speed ring.
70
Agricultural and Mechanical College.
Since the purchase there have been erected seven large and
beautiful buildings, half a dozen small ones, besides a new barn
and a dairy, and several of the old buildings have been renovated.
POST OFFICE.
A post office has been established on the Elora Branch of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway, at the school, and
the station has been named "Normal, Alabama," in honor of the
school. A waiting room and other buildings have been erected.
NORMAL STATION—Eloka Branch N. C. & St. l. Railway.
"Fearns" is the name of the station on the Southern Railway,
situated also on the A. and M. College grounds.
Normal does registry and money order business, and has an
express office. Always buy orders on Normal, and not Hunts-
ville. The A. and LI. College is a United States Weather Signal
Station.
ADMISSION.
To be admitted into the College and Normal Departments, pu¬
pils must present satisfactory evidence of good moral character,
and must not be less than fifteen years of age. Younger persons of
good moral character are received into the Normal Preparatory.
The Model School admits a very limited number of children of any

age. Experience shows that the Model School is not only benefi¬
cial as a means for Normal students to gain practical knowledge
of the profession, but it is a nursery, bringing into the Normal
Preparatory better trained pupils than are often found in that de¬
partment, except through such influences. All Normal students
are required to sign an obligation to teach two years in the State
schools, as soon as they become qualified to do so, provided they
receive pay for their services. This obligation is restricted to
those students who pursue only the regular professional course,
according to the public school laws of Alabama.
DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES.
Dilopmas are granted to students who complete the Normal
Course, provided such students attend the Institution nine months
in the Senior Normal year.
The degree courses are Scientific, Agricultural, and Mechan¬
ical. The degrees of B. S. (Bachelor of Science), B. A. S.,(Bach¬
elor of Agricultural Science), and B. M. S.,(Bachelor of Mechan"
ical Science) are conferred on all graduates of the College De¬
partment, according to the course completed. The degree of M. S.
(Master of Science), M. A. S. (Master of Agricultural Science),
or M. M. S. (Master of Mechanical Science) will be conferred
upon graduates of the College Department on condition that the
applicant shall have wTorked three years at his chosen profession,
or shall have done some special research work, or shall have com¬
pleted the Post-graduate course, as put down in the Catalogue of
the school. Honorary degrees of M. A., M. S., M. M. S., M. A.
S., and Ph. D. may be conferred upon persons who, by special re¬
search or investigation, have made some contribution to knowl¬
edge, or "have been on special service in education or in the profes¬
sions, arts, or sciences.
I THE LABORATORY.
Considerable philosophical, chemical, and biological apparatus
has been added to the Laboratory. It is sufficient for ordinary
work, and is being increased as the interests of the Institution de¬
mand.
LIBRARY AND READING ROOM.
The school has a very good library of choice books, and the
best magazines and journals of the country are found in the read-
ino- room, which is open to students. The different industrial de-

partments are supplied with ample and suitable reference books
and text books. The literary and scientific departments are well
provided with cyclopedias and other reference books, to all of
which the students have access.
SOCIETIES AND RELIGIOUS INFLUENCES.
The Institution is strictly undenominational, as all religious
faiths are represtnted in the Faculty and among- the students.
But the Christian influence and sentiment are fixed, and form the
basis of our excellent discipline. The Christian Endeavor Soci¬
ety, Social Purity Society, Young Men's Christian Association,
CLASS IN COOKING.
Young Women's Christian Association, and Bible Bands, Hay-
good Temperance Club, Phyllis Wheatley Literary Club, Peabody
Literary Club, Frederick Douglass Debating Club, and class or¬
ganizations constitute the societies in the Institution. Preaching
in the chapel every Sunday morning, Sunday School in the even¬
ing, and Wednesday evening prayer meeting are the main fea¬
tures of worship.
METHODS.
"It is cruel, as well as stupid, to attempt to scold a child into
learning a lesson. It weakens all the forces that need to be strong.
74-
Agricultural and Mechanical College.
Put the mind in its best, and not in its worst, mood, when you
want anything from it." Instruction is thorough in all the de¬
partments of the school. Only experienced teachers, whose hearts
are in the great work, are sought.
HOME INFLUENCES.
People cannot rise above their homes. That the homes of our
people need elevation is clear to all. Therefore, this Institution

throws around its students such influence as will contribute to this
great need. This is an indispensable part of their education.
OUR GRADUATES.
The graduates of this school are in great demand. All of them
are giving satisfaction in their respective fields of labor, both as
principals and assistant teachers. They are strong advocates of
temperance and moral reforms among our people. More than six
hundred of our graduates and undergraduates are at work in the

schools ot the South, and many times this number are successfully
engaged in the industrial pursuits of life. Some are in charge of
important industries.
LECTURES ON TEACHING.
A Spring Course of Lectures is given every year, beginning on
May i. These lectures are of the highest order and embrace every
phase of work of teachers, from the time of preparation for the
profession to the close of the teacher's career. These lectures are
helpful to all teachers, young and old.

INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT.
THE ADI OF THIS DEPARTMENT.
The aim of the Institution is to give both practical and theoret¬
ical "instruction in Agriculture, the Mechanic Arts, the English
Language, and various branches of Mathematical, Physical, Na¬
tural, and Economic Science, with special reference to their appli¬
cation in the industries of life," thus giving to the State an intel¬
ligent, industrious citizen, with proper ideas of life and the rela¬
tions of education and labor. The object is to have the student
begin practical life right in the school room, receiving here some
useful trade or profession, or laying the foundation for the same.
The results of ihe efforts of this Institution in this direction, in
past years, planly indicate the correctness of its methods. The
head, the heart, and the hand are harmoniously and conjointly de¬
veloped and trained.
Further, the aim is to turn all labor, and all articles produced
by labor, to advantage and utility. Therefore, all of the indus¬
trial departments contribute in some way to the equipment of the
Institution, and are, in mo^t cases, a source of income to the stu¬
dent as well as a means of instruction.

or unkind remarks of each other, or who allow disorder and dis¬
obedience to go unchecked in their presence, are unworthy of their
