Excerpt from Records of the School of Mines and of Science Applied to the Arts, Vol. 1: Inaugural and Introductory Lectures to the Courses for the Session 1851-2

We propose to instruct by means of our collections, our laboratories, our mining record office, our lectures, and the Geological Survey - thus teaching as well in the field as in this building, and so that the pupils can become practically acquainted with mining in our various mineral districts, be able to study geology, and those of its applications requiring it, on the ground itself, and so unite, in a manner not hitherto attempted, and yet in one for which our opportunities amply provide, a sound combination of science and practice; a com bination also kept steadily in view in our laboratories, and in all branches of the instruction upon which it is now purposed to enter.
