XVI.— IMPERIAL STUDIES LECTURES. 



Over and above the lectures referred to in the previous section, which coiue under 

 the category of Popular Lectures, the attention of the Council has been directed to 

 the work being done by the Imperial Studies Committee appointed over two years ago 

 by the University of London, of which Lord Milner is chairman. This committee 

 was formed with the view of co-ordinating and focussing such parts of the teaching 

 of the University as bear directly or indirectly upon the study of the Empire and 

 cognate problems. But this Imperial Studies movement is designed to be carried 

 much further afield into the various University centres of the United Kingdom, and 

 the Council of the Institute recognising the importance of the effort, and the promise 

 of fruitful results in the future, has decided to associate the Institute with it by 

 formulating a scheme of academic lectures, the organiser of which will be Dr. A. P. 

 Newton, the Secretary of th^ Imperial Studies Committee. Active steps have been 

 taken to form a panel of lecturers of high repute, and to arrange for the delivery by 

 them this Autumn of courses of lectures dealing with imperial subjects in a scientific 

 spirit at various university centres. ^
