Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the President of Bowdoin College: For the Academic Year 1893-94 Yet, to make this increased room effective, we must have an amount of apparatus far beyond what we have now. We need this added apparatus, not to introduce new and special courses, but to teach in the best manner the courses we now Offer. Careful estimates show that, in order to bring our instruction in science up to the demands Of modern scientific training, and to make it in any degree commensurate with the splendid facilities which the Searles Science Building affords, we need, at the least, for physical apparatus, for chemical apparatus, and for biological apparatus or to equip these departments for the suitable occupa tion of the building, and the effective prosecution Of their work. More than this sum could be profitably used; to enter the building with less would be a great mistake. The adequate equipment of either or all Of these departments is especially commended as a most welcome centennial gift to the college.
