Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cornell University: First General Announcement Principles, as thought out by Economists, Statesmen and Historians, will be constantly applied to what has been actually wrought out in society. The trustees will endeavor, in questions of Political Economy, upon which good and able men differ, to have both sides ably presented and discussed. No attempt will be made, however, to proselyte students to any peculiar or partisan views. II. Division Of Science, Literature, And The Arts In General. 1.First General Course, or "Modern Course." This will extend through four years. To Modern Languages, which have become so indispensable in a good education, will be mainly assigned the place and labor usually given to Ancient Languages. The course will be suited to the needs of students, so far as possible, by the allowance of options between studies in the latter years of the course, on a plan somewhat similar to that lately adopted at Harvard University. 2. "Modern Course Abridged." This course will extend through three years. This, as well as the abridged courses which follow, are intended to meet the needs of those students who have not time for a full general course. It will give the main studies of the extended course, the subordinate studies being omitted so as to decrease the time one year. 3. Second General Course, or "Combined Course." This course will extend through four years. In this the languages studied will be Latin and German, the remainder of the course being essentially the same as the "General Course."
