Abstract
THE University Commissioners have published for information certain draft statutes that they are considering on the question of faculty organisation in the University of Cambridge. Among many points of interest to those who may be concerned in administering the new scheme, and to those who will have to live and work under it, a few may be mentioned in a brief preliminary survey. Two schools are created for the scientific studies: the School of the Physical Sciences including the faculties of engineering, mathematics and physics, and chemistry, and the School of the Biological Sciences including the departments of anatomy, botany, genetics, geology, parasitology and zoology, which form one faculty, and the departments of biochemistry, experimental psychology, pathology and physiology, which form a second biological faculty. The remaining faculties, which are not purely literary or belonging to the fine arts, are economics and politics, moral science, agriculture, archaeology and anthropology, geography and medicine.
