A WORD TO STATE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS. THE COLLEGE COURSE. While wo have a strong four years' Col lege Course, a fact not generally understood, yet we cannot expect gradu ates and undergraduates from tho State and other institutions to give us their support in this department to the exclusion of their own institutions. But we are ambitious to win your good opinion for those particular de partments found with us and not found in tho college or university of your choice. You will want many of your friends in the future to attend ycur college and complete a course, but either because they cannot or will not take a college course you fail. On the other hand, thoy may be deter mined to take special work in some institution. Right here we are am bitious to convince you that the Lincoln Normal University can take these young people and do better by them than any other institution in Ne braska. WHY? Because, Wo have from from 2 to 8 tlmos as muoh money invested. Became, Our equipments are suporior. Became, Our courses of study in each department are muoh stronger. Became, We do not allow our students to get false' notions of an edu cation by reason of completing these shorter courses. COURSES TO CHOOSE FROM. The Teachers' or Professional Course It takes as long with us to get the diploma from this course as it does at any other private normal to get their teachers' diploma and the so-called 11. S. and B. A. degrees all com bined. You will aoo at once that our teachers are not skipped and skimmed through a short, pedagogical course. The Conservatory of Mmic In this department we give a most com plete musical education. Director Oldham is a leader in his profession. The Commercial Course Students entering this course find that it is not equalled in Nebraska. The ability of the instructors, the course of study and the equipments all lead. Shorthand and Typewritiny We can repeat here what is yaid for the work above. Kinderyarten'No, we cannot turn out a kindergartener in a term or two. But if the students complete the course they are strong strong in practice, strong in philosophy. Pen Art and Fine ArtVfe are peculiarly fortunate in this work. We have an arlist at its head. Students can enter these courses at any time. Will you call at the In stitution and investigate the above statements? Having satisfied yourself you would be better able to advise your friends.
