REPORT ON THE DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND 



GEOGRAPHY. 



By J. B. Woodworth. 



Professor Daly served as Chairman of the Department until 

 July 1st, when the writer assumed charge. 



Except in the geographical section, the personnel of the Depart- 

 ment was the same as last year. The professorship in physiog- 

 raphy has not been rilled. Mr. N. E. A. Hinds was appointed 

 instructor in elementary geology and physiography, and Mr. T. H. 

 Clark instructor in geology. Thus, for the first time in many 

 years, the Department has had the advantage of having some of 

 its instruction given by experienced men of grade intermediate be- 

 tween that of a professor and that of an assistant. Professor 

 Graton was absent during the first half-year, his courses being 

 efficiently conducted by Dr. A. Wandke. Mr. F. G. Clapp gener- 

 ously gave his services as lecturer on oil geology. 



Foxcroft House was fitted up for the use of the section of eco- 

 nomic geology, the transfer from Pierce Hall being necessitated by 

 the reoccupation of the hall by the Engineering School. 



The number of enrollments of students in each course is given 

 in the following table.
