dc.description.transcriptionAnn Arbor, Mich. Nov. 11/94/ Dear Papa:- I like the plan you have adopted in reference to P.G. work, and your scheme for Pedagogy seems to be quite complete. I think of nothing to add to it. As to the work in Mathematics, I hardly see what courses can be offered that can be pursued in absentia. The Calculus we have here is a much more complete work than the one you use and might well be made a P.G. course. If I were planning the work, would also include Differential Equations, Higher Plane Curves, Solid Analytic, Higher Mechanics, and Summary courses in Algebra and Geometry. Of course work of this kind can hardly be done without the constant aid of a teacher. I wrote Uncle Ran in reference to my work here to see if it would be accepted for A.M. – If I should stay to the summer school and finish the work required for my A.B. they will not confer the degree until ’96, tho I would not have to come back. We had a lecture last night by Bro. Willett and it was fine, - he is always an interesting speaker. Also had an excellent sermon this morning by Bro. Newnan of Detroit – one of the most powerful sermons I ever listened to.- You will be surprised to know that I have gotten into the bad(?) habit lately of getting up at 5 o’clock a.m. to study. Really almost a revolution, isn’t it? Feel that I will like it, if ever I get use to it. Have heretofore been sitting up until 11 or 12 and getting up at 7. Am now retiring at 10 and getting up at 5. Don’t know just how long I can keep it up. Sister wrote me some time ago that Mr. Wade would be in school here this year. Is he here? I have never been able to find him. He has not been around to church yet. Love to all. Addison Clark Jr.
