A draft, dated February 1880, for the course catalog for the Vrije Universiteit (dedicated on October 20, 1880). The catalog lists the courses to be offered in the departments of theology, law, and letters. The catalog assumes seven professorships in theology and four each in law and letters. This item is reproduced as appendix 2. The original is located in the Archives of the Directors of the Vrije Universiteit (AVU) as incoming correspondence, no. 4.

The Vrije Universiteit opened in 1880 with three professors in the theology faculty (A. Kuyper, F.L. Rutgers, and Ph.J. Hoedemaker), one (extraordinary) professor in the law faculty (D.P.D. Fabius), and three professors in the faculty of arts and sciences (A. Kuyper, F.W.J. Dilloo, and [from 1881] J. Woltjer). Eight students of theology were enrolled during the academic year of 1880/1881. In the academic year of 1881/1882, there were seven theology students and two law students. Today, the Vrije Universiteit numbers twelve faculties and approximately 19,000 students.
