College of Physicians and Surgeons.

The College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York, which has lately been heavily endowed by the Vanderbilts, and thus rendered much more efficient in almost all its departments, has for a long while been an adjunct of Columbia College. It has just become a regular department of Columbia and is now managed on the same basis as the other parts of the University. President Low's policy has always been to have the management of all the departments unified, and this is a step in that direction. All departments of science and art are now, with the addition of the medical department, represented in the university management. A theological branch is all that is now needed to make a complete university of Columbia College.
