TABLE 7.-STATISTICS OF ENDOWED ACADEMIES, SEMINARIES, AND OTHER PRIVATE SECONDARY SCHOOLS FOR 1888-89-Continued. DIVISION C.-Private schools for both sexes.-PART II-Continued. CHAPTER XXVIII. SUPERIOR AND PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTION. I.-COLLEGES FOR WOMEN. The separation of this class of institutions into two divisions has been found to work quite successfully. It is hoped that a greater number of institutions will gradually raise their standards sufficiently to be included in Division A of Table 2. The only one that has been added to this division since the publication of the Report for 1887-88 is Mount Holyoke Seminary and College, South Hadley, Mass., which has lately been granted a charter, and now possesses full collegiate powers. The number of institutions included in Table 2 is 198, which is 9 less than were reported in 1887-88. This decrease in numbers is due, very likely, to failure on the part of these institutions to report their statistics. Tables 1 and 2 present the summarized and detailed statistics of these institutions, 1070 TABLE 1.-Summary of statistics of institutions for the higher instruction of women for 1888-89.
