The large number of thestudents graduate at the commencementexercises in June. Students may enfrthis institution very profitably *at thelopening of the quarter, either in Janti-'ary. March or June.

Since this school is in session forty-eight weeks each year, the buildings:land equipment are used practically thejwhole time The session of forty-eightweeks is divided into four quarters of!about equal length. Three quarters.!mailing thirty-six weeks, or nine schoolmonths, count as one regular session in;this institution as in other institutionsin Virginia.

Old students whosometimes teach before finishing thecourse and teachers who are already inthe teaching force of the State, enterat the beginning of each of the fourquarters.The winter quarter, which opens Jan-'

uary 5, promises to he very aatisfac- jlory. The personnel of the .student!body of the present session has beenof a very high order. Kvery interestand enterprise. of the institutionflourished during the first quarter.
