From the oak which Sir Walter planted thus, three centuries ago, sprang Harvard College, the oldest institution of learning in America. The university of to-day includes the college of the older days, and eight schools: the Graduate School, the Lawrence Scientific School, the School of Law, of Medicine, of Divinity, of Dentistry, of Veterinary Medicine, and that of Agriculture and Horticulture, in which, during the academic year 1895-96, instruction is given to three thousand six hundred students by three hundred and sixty-six teachers.
