Description
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the University<br/><br/>After fifteen years' service, Dr. Nutt resigned June 30, 187 5. During his administration many important changes were made, but in most cases they originated with, and their details were worked out by, the Board of Trustees. In September, 187 5, Dr. Lemuel Moss, who had a few months before resigned the presidency of the old-chicago University, was elected Presi dent, and at once assumed, under favorable auspices, the duties Of the office. In the next year the relation between the Indiana Medical College and the University was terminated, and in 187 7 the Law School was discontinued after an honorable existence of thirty  five years. Inasmuch as tuition was free, according to a ruling of the Board, the funds of the Uni versity did not justify so large an expenditure of money as was needed to maintain these schools with high standards. The administration of Dr. Moss saw a further expansion of the college course. The course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science had existed as early as 1854; in 1867 this course was enlarged. In 1878 an additional course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Letters was introduced, which permitted the substitution of French or German in place of the Greek in the classical course.
