Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the President and Treasurer to the Trustees: With Accompanying Documents for the Year Ending, June 30, 1923 To the Trustees: The Annual Report prescribed by the Statutes of the University is submitted herewith, together with the reports of the chief administrative officers. The statements of fact and the several recommendations contained in these reports are earnestly commended to the attention of the Trustees and their appropriate committees, and also to that wider public which it is the constant purpose of Columbia University to serve. Columbia University is its own most severe critic. It has resisted the vice, or the virtue, of complacency, and constantly examines and re-examines its own organization and activities with a view to their betterment. During the past year no part of the University has escaped this searching of the spirit. The Faculty of Columbia College has been studying how best to establish and introduce a course introductory to the study of the natural and experimental sciences to parallel the course introductory to the study of contemporary civilization established four years ago. The Faculty of Applied Science has had under earnest consideration the question of the adequacy and wisdom of its present program of study and of the existing high standard required for admission to its rolls.
