REPORT ON THE LABORATORIES OF GEOLOGY AND 



GEOGRAPHY. 



By Professors Shaler, Davis, Jackson, and Ward. 



As no Report has been made to the Faculty of the Museum since 

 the year 1897-98, the following Report covers the work for the 

 years 1898-99 and 1899-1900. The table shows the number of 

 students enrolled in the courses given in the Museum for the two 

 academic years covered by this report. Professor Shaler's elemen- 

 tary course (Geol. 4) is not included in the table : no lecture room 

 in the Museum being large enough to accommodate the many 

 students (over 400) enrolled in the course, the lectures are held 

 in Sanders Theatre. 



During the year 1898-99 five courses were given to students 

 of Radcliffe College, attended by 52 students ; and during the 



year 1899-1900 eight courses were 

 attended by 36 students of Rad- 

 cliffe. 



Professor Shaler has given or 

 taken part in ten courses during 

 each of the past two years. These 

 courses were attended by a total of 

 488 students in 1898-99. Other 

 courses of a geological nature were 

 given by Mr. Woodworth and Dr. 

 Jaggar. Mr. Woodworth was 

 placed in general charge of the 

 courses in geological field work 

 for the year 1898-99. Fifteen 

 students were enrolled in these 

 courses under various instructors, 

 including Professors Shaler and Smyth, Dr. Jaggar and Mr. 

 Woodworth. Messrs. Burr and Burke made a careful study of 



Courses.
