ent
of university extension was organized; lecture courses, especially on
history and literature, were delivered in 1906-1907 at fifteen extension
"centres," at most of which classes of study were formed. Annexes to the
university, but having no corporate connexion with it, are the Berkeley
Bible Seminary (Disciples of Christ), the Pacific Theological Seminary
(Congregational), the Pacific Coast Baptist Seminary and a Unitarian
school.

The growth of the university has been extremely rapid. From 1890 to 1900
the number of students increased fourfold. In the latter year the
university of California was second to Harvard only in the number of
academic graduate and undergraduate students, and fifth among the
educational institutions of the country in total enrolment. In July 1907
there were 519 officers in the faculties and 2987 students, of whom 226
were in the professional schools in San Francisco. In addition there
were 707 students in the 1906 summer session, the total for 1906-1907
thus being 3684; of this number 1506 were women. The university
conferred 482 degrees in 1907, 546 in 1906, 470 in 1905. The affairs of
the university are administered by a board of twenty-three regents,
seven state officials and heads of educational institutions, being
members _ex officio_, and sixteen other members being appointed by the
governor and senate of the state; its instruction is governed by the
faculties of the different colleges, and an academic senate in which
these are joined. The gross income from all sources for 1905-1906 was
$1,564,190, of which about $800,000 was income from investments, state
and government grants, fees, &c., and the remainder was gifts and
endowments. There is a permanent endowment of more than $3,000,000,
partly from munificent private gifts, especially from Mrs Hearst and
from Miss Cora Jean Flood. The financial support of the state has always
been generous. No tuition fee is charged in the academic colleges to
students resident in the state, and only $10.00 annually to students
from without the state. The university maintains about 90 undergraduate
scholarships, and 10 graduate scholarships and fellowships. All
able-bodied male students are required to take the courses in military
science, under instruction by an officer of the United States army
detailed for the purpose. Physical culture and hygiene are prescribed
for all men and women. A state law forbids the sale of liquor within one
mile of the
