...improvements in methods of instruction in any courses not exclusively "lecture" courses, which will add variety and interest to the work of the students, are to be welcomed. The instructor in Greek I. has adopted a plan which, although not differing materially from similar methods tried in other courses, furnishes an excellent illustration of the sort of work which, if more extensively adopted by other instructors, and introduced as a part of the regular work of the course, and marked as such, might do away with a considerable part of the evils of the present system of examinations.

Columbia thus declares co-education out of the question. But by mentioning lack of funds as the only objection to the plan for establishing an auxiliary school or "Annex" under the instruction...
