The purpose of the lectureship was stated by the founder to be the education of young men "to the belief that success in business is more profitable and more lasting if conducted upon a high ethical plane, and that true success lies in developing character, rather than in heaping up gold." The lecture does not form a part of the regular courses of instruction.

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION

The Extension Division, as at present constituted, was organized in August, 1913. Its general purpose is to provide instruction for those who cannot attend the University, and to distribute throughout the State the knowledge that will be most valuable in increasing the industrial efficiency of the people and in promoting their enjoyment of life; in a word to extend, so far as practicable, the usefulness of the University. The work of this Division covers two general fields of activity, instruction and public service, and is carried on through five Bureaus. These Bureaus and the kind of work in which each is engaged are shown in the following outline of the plan upon which the Division is organized.

1. The Bureau of Class Instruction organizes and conducts classes in cities and towns wherever a sufficient number of people can be secured who wish to study the same subject. Instruction is offered in the languages, literature, public speaking, mathematics, political science, business branches, economics, engineering, and other subjects.

2. The Bureau of Correspondence Instruction offers instruction by mail in the languages, in literature, mathematics, music, drawing, education, political science, engineering, anthropology, geography, stenography and typewriting, etc., etc. Courses may begin at any time.

3. The Bureau of Lectures provides lectures singly or in series of six to twelve for any committee, club, organization, or community in the State that will make the necessary arrangements for their delivery.

II. PUBLIC SERVICE

1. The Bureau of Public Discusion promotes and directs interest in the study and the discussion of public questions by assisting in the organization of "Debating Clubs" and "Discussion Centers; " by suggesting subjects for the programmes of "Literary Societies;" by publishing bulletins of value to students of oral English; by co-operating with the libraries of the State in recommending material for study; and by conducting the "INTERSCHOLASTIC PUBLIC SPEAKING LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA"a State high school organization.

2. The Bureau of Information and Municipal Reference is a clearing house for inquiries and information concerning municipal government and administration. It collects from books, public documents, etc., and from experts in administration, finance, public health, engineering and allied subjects, the knowledge requisite to the solution of municipal problems and distributes the same throughout the State. It is allied with the League of California Municipalities and in conjunction with it provides for municipal exhibits. It also answers all inquiries, of whatever nature, addressed to it or referred for answer by the various departments of the University, or by individuals of the faculty.

Complete information with regard to University Extension, including methods of organizing classes and lecture centers, fees, and the granting of credit towards a university degree, will be sent on application to the University Extension Division, University of California, Berkeley.

APPOINTMENT REGISTRY

In January, 1898, the Regents of the University established, in the President's Office, a Registry for teachers and others who desire the cooperation of the University in securing employment. The aim is to obtain complete information in regard to all University candidates for the teaching profession or for other callings. A Secretary is in charge of the lists of applicants, which include the names of many who have already won success in their professions, or in the business world. The Secretary secures evidence in regard to the scholarship, experience, and personal qualifications of each candidate, and on the basis of this information the President answers inquiries from appointing authorities.

The purpose is to secure such information as will enable the President to name the best available person for a given position. The practice of giving written recommendations to students, to be used at their own discretion, has been discontinued. Reports from instructors are filed in the President's Office. Copies of these reports will be mailed to school officers, or to professional or business men, at their request, or at the request of the student concerned. But the President reserves the right of refusing to extend the co-operation of the University to students when they apply for positions for which they are manifestly unfit. Official recommendations for positions are made only on request of those in authority. Letters requesting such recommendation should state explicitly the subjects to be taught, or the work to be done, the salary paid per year, and the time when the engagement begins. Prompt answer will be made to such letters throughout the summer vacation as well as during the university year. The Secretary will consult any member of the Faculty whose advice is especially desired. There are no fees for the services of this office.

Communications should be addressed to the Appointment Secretary, University of California, Berkeley.

SUMMER SESSION

The Summer Session of six weeks is designed for teachers and other persons who are unable to attend the University during the fall and spring sessions. There are at present no formal entrance requirements, except that applicants must be persons of good moral character and must be considered by the Faculty to be of sufficient maturity and intelligence to profit by attendance upon the exercises of the session. The courses of instruction are mainly of university grade, and credit toward university degrees may be given to attendants who comply with such conditions of work and examinations as may be imposed by the instructors in charge.

The tuition fee is fifteen dollars, regardless of the number of courses taken.

An Announcement of the Summer Session is issued in March of each year and may be obtained by addressing the Recorder of the Faculties, Berkeley, California.

The Summer Session of 1915 began June 21 and ended July 31.

The Summer Session of 1916 will begin June 26 and end August 5.
