MUSEUM OF COMPARATIVE ZOOLOGY. 11 



Upon recommendation of the Division of Biology, Dr. Charles 

 W. Prentiss was reappointed to a Parker Fellowship for the year 

 1902-03. His first year abroad was spent at Freiburg i. Br. and 

 at the Naples Zoological Station, where he was the occupant of the 

 Smithsonian Table for a number of months. 



The Virginia Barret Gibbs Scholarship for 1901-02 was held 

 by Mr. W. Martin Smallwood. Eleven persons, instructors and 

 advanced students, have been carrying on studies at the Labora- 

 tory of the U. S. Fish Commission at Wood's Hole during the 

 summer of 1902. Of these, eight have received aid from the Hum- 

 boldt Fund. 



The meetings of the Zoological Club were held on Thursdav 

 afternoons throughout the year. 



The transference of the instruction in Geology to the new 

 southwest corner of the University Museum has made it possible 

 to assign to the Department of Zoology several additional rooms, 

 which, with the alterations and renovation of present quarters, 

 will give the department much better facilities for instruction, 

 and especially ample space for research students.
