PHYSICS 277 



Both at the Sorbonne and at the College de France 

 the laboratory equipment is remarkably complete and 



quite available. 



Other Universities. But the opportunities which 

 France offers for higher work in Physics are not limited 



to Paris. 



Along the western portion of the country lie the well 

 known Universities of Rennes, Poitiers, and Bordeaux. 

 At the first named institution, LE Roux offers ^ distin- 

 guished courses in Mechanics, pure and applied; at 

 POITIERS, one finds GARBE and TURPAIN, in Physics. 

 DUHEM, whom the world has just lost, has made Bor- 

 deaux a familiar name in Physics everywhere. Here 

 H. BENARD offers opportunities in general physics. 



Among the many charms of Southern France are 

 always to be included the three renowned universities 

 at Toulouse, Montpellier, and Marseille. BOUASSE and 

 COSSERAT, in Physics and Astronomy respectively, are 

 among the leading men on the staff at Toulouse. MESLIN 

 is in charge of Physics at MontpeUier. Some American 

 students, whose work is now well known, have already 

 enjoyed the privileges of study at the city of Marseille, 

 at once so ancient and so very modern. Here will be 

 found a distinguished trio of productive scholars in L. 

 HOULLEVIQUE, C. FAERY, and H. BUISSON. It is doubt- 

 ful if better opportunities for research in Spectroscopy 

 are to be found in any other place. 



At Lyon, a little farther north, yet s.till in the southern 

 half of France, the student of Physics will find unusual 

 opportunities with the well known investigator, Georges 



GOUY. 



The above mentioned are but a portion of the facilities, 

 intellectual and material, to which France generously 

 opens wide the door.
