Abstract
THE annual meeting of the Court of the University of Liverpool was held on November 27, the Chancellor (the Earl of Derby) presiding. Lord Derby paid a high tribute to the work of the University throughout a difficult year in which the University, buildings suffered considerably by enemy action. He recorded with pleasure, however, that the loss of life was fortunately slight, and that despite all difficulties, study has been maintained on a high standard. Sixty–five members of the teaching staff are now serving with the Forces or in Government Departments; the Senior Training Corps is strong; and the Air Squadron has grown considerably. The work of the Women's Training Corps has prospered, and the basic training in social service is well advanced. Thanks to the generosity and friendship of the City Council, the University is now receiving an annual grant which has reached the total of £25,000. By the generosity of Messrs. J. Bibby and Sons, the University has now been able to establish in Wirral a Veterinary Field Station under Prof. J. G. Wright.
