PROFESSIONAL COLLEGES ADDED


three years of this School of Pharmacy, and for other evi-
dences of your splendid co-operation.
 "Just now we are in a stage of transition from a small col-
lege into a large university. We have made wonderful prog-
ress in these eighteen years. I think I may modestly say that
I do not know of any institution that has made the same prog-
ress as the University in the same time. The state, as you
know, is just now shaking off her swaddling clothes, and has
not been able to give all that the university needs for its more
rapid and larger development. We must have adequate facil-
ities if we are to go unhampered and unimpeded and the thing
we need right now is an adequate chemistry and pharmacy
building. I am asking you to continue your assistance until
the state is able to give us what we need."
 The total enrollment of the College of Pharmacy during
the last year of Dr. Murphree's administration was 62, with
10 applicants for degrees, eight of which will be for the de-
gree of Pharmaceutical Chemist, one for Graduate in Pharm-
acy and one for the B. S. in Pharmacy degree. There were
enrolled in the department of chemistry 691.
 "Since the Florida State Board is now requiring a di-
ploma from an accredited school or college of pharmacy to be
presented by each applicant for the state examination, it is
quite likely that the attendance in this college will increase to
a considerable extent for the next few years," Dean Leigh
said.
 A medicinal plant garden is being operated in connection
with the College of Pharmacy, comprising a ten-acre tract in
which is being grown both native and imported medicinal
plants, primarily for the purpose of serving as a teaching
adjunct.
