II. HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE

INSTITUTION.

Purdue University originated in an Act of Congress approved July 2, 1862, appropriating public lands to the various states for the purpose of aiding in the maintenance of colleges for instruction in science and technology.

The State of Indiana accepted the provisions of the Act of Congress by an Act of Legislature approved March 6, 1865, thus providing for the establishment and maintenance of the institution. Notable donations have been accepted in the same faith from citizens of Tippecanoe County, John Purdue, Martin L. Pierce, Eliza Fowler, and James M. Fowler; also from Amos Heavilon of Clinton County.

Subsequent Acts of Congress for the further endowment of the institution have been formally accepted by the Legislature of the State, which has also fixed the name and location of the University.

From the first, the institution has been under the control of trustees appointed either by the Legislature or the Governor. These trustees are responsible for all official acts, are subject to removal, and are in the strictest sense trustees of the State's interests.

The property of the institution is held in the name of the State and cannot be disposed of without legislation.

The plan and purpose of the University are-to provide liberal instruction in those arts and sciences relating to the various industries and professions, and to conduct investigations and disseminate information concerning the principles and applications of agricultural science.

The scope and work of the University are fixed by law as set forth in the five Acts of Congress relating to the establishment and endowment of the institution, which have been accepted by the State of Indiana-as follows:

The Act approved in 1862, appropriating lands, states that

"The leading objects shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the legislatures of the states may respectively prescribe, in order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life."

The Act approved in 1887, appropriates $15,000 annually for the Experiment Station, and states that—
