on offering her resignation in May. As Miss Sarah Lawrence

her resignation and are glad to have her assurance that her
interest in the College will continue.
Among the important
subjects engaging the attention of the trustees has been that of
tenure of membership. As the time approached when the
Board was faced with the necessity of losing members if the
twelve-year limitation of tenure were enforced, the advisability
of lengthening the term of service came up for consideration.
Discussion of the matter extended over the greater part of the
year and finally resulted in a change in by-laws by which a
member may be elected for a third term of six years, making

has already m.ade many friends among her colleagues and in the
student body. Her last publication. Seven Psychologies, has
been very favorably received.
On the recommendation of the Academic Council, the trustees
approved a change in the admission requirements, a change
which offers more flexibility in Latin and mathematics. A full
statement will be found in the Appendix. These changes were
the subject of discussion with Smith and Mount Holyoke and in
part with Bryn Mawr and Vassar. Various plans were submitted to some fifty secondary schools, both public and private.
Although the plans adopted by Mount Holyoke, Smith, and
Wellesley were not identical, the differences were not such as to
embarrass the secondary schools. These plans go into effect for
the students entering in September 1935.
A list of gifts and bequests will be found as usual in the Appendix.
In these days when there are so many requests from
students for financial aid, the bequest of ^1,000 from Mary
Frazer Smith to establish a scholarship is especially timely.

the good offices of Professor Bosano, the collection was presented
in person by His Excellency Augusto Russo, the Italian Ambassador, and it was received by the President of the College
and by the President of the Circolo, Miss Marjory Best, who
thanked him in a charming speech given in Italian. This was
one of the delightful occasions of the year at which there were
gathered in Tower Court living room, to do honor to his Excellency, various distinguished guests from Boston and Cambridge as well as members of the foreign language departments
of the College and the students of the Italian department.
The College has received from a group of Boston friends a

The work of the Administrative Board, of the Student Records
Committee, and of the Committee on Curriculum and Instruction has been carried on as usual with the discussion of various
problems connected with the interpretation and administration
of faculty legislation.
A number of minor changes in this legislation were recommended to the Academic Council in the course
of the year, and voted by the Council.
The review given in the
spring of 1935 by the Committee on Curriculum and Instruction
to the plans of departments for courses to be given in the following year took rather more time than that usually allowed by the
Committee for this task, because several departments presented
plans worked out to meet new problems, or plans involving some
new handling of an old problem. Thus, the plans presented by
the departments of Latin and mathematics were made out with
a reference to changed entrance requirements in Latin and
mathematics; and the plans of the Department of Speech involved new provisions for exempting freshmen with good speaking voices from the required work in Speech, and a re-scheduling

the
new plans adopted mark any
radical departure
from estab-
lished policy.
One point about student activities and student interests seems
worth recording at this time, although its application is not
specifically to the current year but more generally to present day
conditions at the College. This point is that although Wellesley
College does not give academic credit, as do some of the newer
and more "progressive"
institutions, for such extra-curricular
activities as those of the choir, orchestra,
dramatic association,
departmental clubs, the Shakespeare Society, the debating
society, etc., etc., yet there is a widespread, energetic, and varied

made
clear to any one whose attention is called to the crowded "social
schedule" for the year, and especially to that for the second
semester when the many and various projects undertaken earlier
in the year are worked out and ready for some sort of public
presentation. The practical problem involved in limiting in
the interests of the students' health and academic work the
number of out-of-class activities and events is one that has to
be met anew each year by faculty, students, and members of the
—
—
administrative
staff.
But the
fact that student interest ex-
presses itself so variously and, on the whole, so vigorously in
extra-curricular activities that are intellectually and aesthetically
worth while, and that often reflect very clearly classroom training and stimulus, is itself a healthy and encouraging sign.
During the year 1934-35, 318 courses were actually given by
the various departments, aggregating 659>^ hours per week, not
including hours duplicated because of additional sections of the
same course. These 318 courses include only one course given
by the Department of Hygiene, namely the lecture course prescribed for freshmen.
A list of these courses by departments
with the figures showing enrollment by courses is given in the
Statistics of

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
To
the President of Wellesley College:
In spite of the fact that the year was one of continual readjustment, owing to the unusual amount of illness of members of the

Associate Librarians, the cooperation of the staff, together with
employment of a substitute assistant, enabled the library to

(Epistole) of Pope Pius II, Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini, published
at Nuremberg in 1496, adds another to our rare editions of works
of this author.
Of quite different interest is the work entitled
America Libera by Alfieri, five odes written in 1781 and 1788.
Another Petrarch, an edition of 1586 with Velutello's commentary, was acquired from Professor Palmer's library.
Besides these gifts there were added an early but inexpensive
edition of Bartolomeo da San Concordio's Ammaestramenti
Antichi, 1585, interesting to us because we own a fifteenth century manuscript of this work; and two Italian romances to add
to our unusual collection: Palmerino d^inghilterra, 2 v., 1555 and
1582 (we formerly had but one volume) and // Fidamante, Poema
Eroico by Curtio Gonzaga.
In the purchase of these volumes,
none of them expensive, the judgment of the present Curator of
the Collection was confirmed by Miss Margaret Jackson, the
former Curator, whose knowledge of the period of Italian literature covered by the Collection, and of the Collection itself Is of
great value.
Exhibitions during the year centered in these accessions;
"Five hundred years of Petrarch" showing editions from the
fifteenth to the twentieth century, and others showing, not only
the year's gifts and purchases, but other books or manuscripts

Many more adjustments in the work of the staff were necessary during the year than usual, owing to illness. Mrs. Hattox
was absent the entire year for this reason, and Miss Charlotte
Schultz, a graduate of the class of 1934, who had had considerable
library experience, came on short notice to take her place and
was with us during the year. She was a pleasant addition to the
staff as well as an excellent assistant at the desk and elsewhere.
Miss Lathrope, the Assistant Cataloguer, was also absent a large
part of the year owing to illness, and her place necessarily remained unfilled. The Catalogue Department suffered from
both these absences as Mrs. Hattox, in addition to desk attendance, assists in making cards for the catalogue.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF THE

the non-teaching field and an increase in salaries, from the range
3600-34000 in 1933-34, to 3728-35000 in 1934-35.
Taking the class of 1935 as a special group, the tendency is
still marked away from teaching and toward business (24 have
teaching positions; 73 non-teaching). Economic necessity has
emphasized a tendency which had been showing itself before the
depression.

for gaining first-hand information about a vocation.
In the individual conferences with the students, the Bureau
has had the help of the Dean of the College, who interviewed the
sophomores in Pomeroy and Tower Court, in all about 65. All
others were carried on by the Director and the Associate in the
Bureau. In the case of the seniors, conferences were held with
the class, in connection with registration, of which 89% availed
themselves. The Appointment Secretary also spends a considerable part of her time in conferences with undergraduates
and alumnae.

Bernreuter Personality Inventory and the Allport and Vernon
Study of Values. The Consultant in Psychology will undertake
again, as two years ago, to have the Personality Inventory
scored in her classes as practical work.
It was found that the
expense of having the scoring done by paid workers was so great
that it seemed somewhat out of proportion to the test's usefulness.
On the other hand, the Inventory shows interesting
possibilities, and it is hoped that the Psychology department
may give us the results reasonably soon. The Consultant has
been carrying on an investigation of "lateral dominance" in
students in which she has made use of the scores of the Bernreuter Personality Inventory given to 1938 by the Personnel
Bureau. The study is still in progress.
Other tests were offered during the year to the other classes,
namely, a Social Intelligence Test, a Clerical Test, and a Teaching Aptitude Test. As in former years, the Bureau directed the
Medical Aptitude Test of the Association of American Medical
Colleges and the Law Capacity Examination.

REPORT
OF THE
TREASURER
JAMES DEAN
1934-1935
To THE Trustees
of Wellesley College:
The Treasurer submits the following report
of the financial operations of the
College for the year ended June 30, 1935.
James Dean,
Treasurer.
To THE Trustees
of Wellesley College:
A
review of the year 1934-35 shows the period to be one of quiet achievement
with few, if any, financial high Hghts. Legacies and gifts received through the
year amounted to 3241,114. Continued economy with, however, no reduction
in staff or decrease in salaries enabled the College to maintain its usual activities
along customary lines and to close the year with a small surplus.
Plant. The main addition to our plant is the new Chemistry-Physics-Psychology Building. Although not the last of the Semi-Centennial objectives,
this construction marks the completion of the major portion of the Semi-Centennial building program.
Planned and executed with minute care, the libraries,
lecture-rooms, and laboratories of this new science hall offer rare opportunities for
study, research, and service. The old Chemistry Building, erected 1894 as a
"temporary" structure and the old Alpha Kappa Chi House, used these many
years by the Department of Philosophy and Psychology, will now disappear from
the campus. The reserve fund for depreciation, in addition to various minor
items, has made possible much-needed improvements in plumbing, heating, and
refrigeration in Simpson Infirmary, and in the Hazard Quadrangle renewal of
one more stack of bath-rooms and replacement of all refrigeration. The increase
in value of movable equipment results from bringing book figures into agreement
with an actual, conservatively-valued inventory taken, as usual, at the end of a
five-year period.
Funds and Investments. That portion of legacies and gifts added to funds
amounted to ^221, 723. The largest gift was an anonymous fund of 3124,500
subject to annuities, but ultimately entirely unrestricted as to use.
We are
again deeply indebted to Miss Jessie Munger '86 for her additional gift of 375,000 to replace a part of the reserved unrestricted funds used in the erection of
Munger Hall. Profit on the sale of securities covered the loss for the previous
year on such sales and established a credit balance of 335,002 in the investment
reserve fund.
There has been some change in the relative proportion of investments, an increase in stocks of 4.25 per cent, with a corresponding decrease in all
of the other classes of investments.
On June 30, 1935, the conservative market
value of investments was 8.37 per cent below book value, a gain of 1.9 per cent
over figures of the previous year.
now
Income and Expenditures. The increase in income came primarily from
increase in student registration which was larger than for two years, and which
showed a gain of 2.39 per cent over that of 1933-34. The allocation of 3500 for
tuition and 3500 for board and room caused a decrease in income from dormitories with a corresponding increase in receipts from tuition.
The total gross income increased from that of the previous year by 2.41 per cent, while the gross
distribution increased by 2.56 per cent.
There was also a slight gain in income
from investments and from miscellaneous items.
in income from different sources is interesting.

31,832,254 100.00
Although using a lower rate, we increased the reserve for depreciation, and reduced to 323,000 the amount of endowment funds invested in dormitories.
The fact that, in these chaotic days, the College has been enabled to proceed
quietly, and with a measure of success, is in itself a tribute to the careful guidance
of those who lead and the cheerful compliance of those who follow.
Respectfully submitted,
Evelyn A. A^unrge,
Assistant Treasurer.
