to imparting instruction [handwritten proofreader's mark: strikethrough "to"] every thing belonging to its department.

acter, being, however, absolutely required.

Each school shall be divided into sections of as many students as
may be conveniently or efficiently instructed, and no more. The
classing of the students into sections shall be regulated or fixed by
their attainments, to be determined by examination on their applica-
tion for admission. But they may be transferred from section to
section, up or down, according to the degree of proficiency they
shall from time to time exhibit.

In the instruction of these sections the Professor-in-Chief shall be
aided by as many assistant Professors as shall be necessary, who
shall be under his direction and control, and shall aid him in the
government and discipline of the students of his school while in their
section or lecture rooms.

The Professor-in-Chief shall be provided with a house, and paid a
salary of $3,000, by the University. This amount may be increased
from their school tickets to a sum not exceeding $5000. They shall
vacate their offices at the expiration of five years, but they may be
reelected at the pleasure of the Board of Trustees.
