University statute of 1884 and the organization of educational daily routine at the Kazan University at the turn of 19th and 20th centuries

Abstract

The article considers the influence of the University Statute of 1884 on the organization of everyday learning at Kazan University in the late 19th – early 20th centuries. The Statute of 1884 and additional acts to it required university teachers to coordinate with the Ministry of Public Education all issues related to the educational process, up to the distribution of classrooms. However, complex bureaucratic approval procedures, coupled with the specific conditions for the existence of a given institution of higher education, often led to a violation of the daily routine of classes. At the beginning of the XXth century this led to the return of some norms of the organization of everyday learning during the period of the Statute of 1863, although the charter of 1884 was not officially repealed.
