Rev. R. G. McNiece. [Sept 30, 1895]* <br><br> to have him outline a policy to begin with; also outline a series of annexes or departments such as School of Mines, Medicine, Law and Theology. In that way you will be the first probably to occupy the ground. There is no reason why these departments should not commence as soon as there are any pupils. Yourself, Dr. Wishard, Mr. McClain, and brother Arnold could arrange a series of lectures and carry on a theological class. Several of your lawers probably could be secured to give their services for the carrying on of a law class. The same could be done with your leading physicians. The advertising and prominence it gives them will be compensation for their time. This course has been persued in scores of our larger cities. <br><br> Very respectfully yours, <br> Sheldon Jackson** <br> General Agent of Education. <br><br><br> * Brackets are in original document. <br> ** Signature is handwritten in cursive. <br><br>
