University of Chicago Department of Social Science
 Listed and Cross-listed Courses Taught by Instructors in Other Departments, 1893–1930

The information in this table was build up through content analysis of course descriptions published in the University of Chicago's Annual Register. As with other tables in this series, "Department of Social Science" is used as a convenient name for the administrative unit that included Sociology, Anthropology and Sanitary Science. As far as this table is concerned, the last inclusion of Anthropology and Sanitary Science has little effect. During the reporting period, no courses of the type documented in the table were listed in the series of documents reviewed.

This table collects together two types of course taught by instructors from outside the department: "Listed courses" refers to courses included in the numbered listing of courses offered by the Department with no indication that the course is being taught outside of the department, other than the name of the instructor associated with the course. "Cross-listed courses" refers to courses included in the numbered listing of courses by the Department, identified as being taught in another department by addition of its alternative course listing in the other department. 

One entry in the table provides a good example. In 1914,  Professor Hoben from the Department of Education taught "Moral Education and Juvenile Delinquency." The course appeared twice in "the Department's" listings for that year (see Annual Register (1913-14): 161, 165), first cross listed among "Intermediate Courses", then listed among the "Graduate Courses" in the "Social Technology" area.
