Excerpt from Minutes of the Sixty-Fifth Session, North Indiana Annual Conference, M: Methodist Episcopal Church Northwestern, the largest University of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and one of the six largest in the country, is one of the few that recognize their church connection. The University places character building before utilitarianism, and while in sympathy with all advances in education, holds to conservative ideals that characterize the older colleges of the country. Location means much to the University. Evanston, twelve miles from Chicago, and free of saloons and factories, is an ideal college town. The court, clinic, and hospital facilities afforded by Chicago guarantee the professional departments an efficiency that cannot be excelled. An endowment and property of $8,000,000 enable the University to offer superior equipment. The University maintains a College of Liberal Arts, Schools of Medicine, Law, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Music, and Academies at Evanston, Elgin and Onarga. A School of Engineering will be established. Garrett Biblical Institute and the Cumnock School of Oratory are in close co-operation. Address inquiries to the President's Secretary, 87 Lake Street, Chicago.
