Abstract
CAMBRIDGE.—The General Board of Studies, in its annual report to the Senate, reviews the work done and progress made in the experimental departments of the University during the academic year, 1914–15. A large proportion of the scientific staff and some forty of the laboratory assistants are absent on military service; this, together with the enlistment of most of the students of military age, has led to a diminution of the usual output of original experimental investigation. A large amount of experimental work has been done gratuitously for a number of Government departments in connection with problems arising out of the war, and certain of the laboratories have been able to offer such facilities to professors of Belgian universities as have enabled them to continue the instruction of their pupils in this country.
