An original, uncopied, laboratory note book, containing any comments and corrections that may have been made by the instructor, must be presented by the candidate at the time of the examination. (1 unit).

BOTANY

19. It is recommended that this include elementary work in the structure and physiology of seed plants together with an introduction to their classification, i. e., such work as is outlined in Leavitt's Outlines of Botany or Bergen's Foundations of Botany. Work on the lower groups of plants and histological studies, if undertaken at all, should be secondary. Individual laboratory work by the student is essential. Records of laboratory work with accurate drawings and precise description should be handed in at the time of the examination. (1⁄2 or I unit).

ZOOLOGY

20. Biology of animals, including structure, habits and life history of types of the great groups such as the following:-Ameba, paramecium, sponge, hydra, starfish, earthworm, crayfish, insect, clam, fish, frog, turtle, bird, cat. Course should consist of laboratory study of most of above, with note books containing original drawings, supplemented by mastery of a standard text-book such as Kellogg or Hunter. The note books and drawings should be submitted at the time of the examination. (1⁄2 or I unit).

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE

21. The elements of human Physiology and Hygiene, the equivalent of Martin's Human Body (briefer course), or Huxley's Elements of Physiology. It is very desirable that in addition to textbook work there should be laboratory exercises, as dissections of animals and organs, use of models, charts, etc. Some study of tissues by the aid of the microscope is also valuable. Precise notes should be taken and accurate sketches made of objects observed in the laboratory work. These notes and sketches should be presented at the time of examination. (2 or 1 unit).

PHYSIOGRAPHY

22. The elements of Physiography or Physical Geography, equivalent to Davis' Physical Geography or Fairbanks' Practical Physiography. In addition to text-book study, it is extremely desirable that there be considerable observation of natural scenery and phenomena, as well as inquiry into the probable causes which have produced them. Precise notes of these observations should be taken, illustrated by accurate maps and sketches. (1⁄2 or I unit).

FREE-HAND DRAWING

23. The candidate should be able to sketch free-hand, with fair accuracy, simple geometrical figures and their combinations; he should be able to sketch from the object, with reasonable facility and correctness, geometrical models, simple objects or parts of machines; he should be able to sketch from the copy, either enlarging or reducing, simple objects or plain details of machinery. Correctness of proportion, accuracy in the relations of parts of figures and neatness in the execution of the work should be secured. A fair knowledge of perspective and the application of light and shade in free-hand sketching is necessary.

At least twenty drawings representing a year's work in the preparatory school should be submitted for the lowest requirement in this subject, and each drawing should bear the certificate of the instructor in charge of the work. (2 unit).

MECHANICAL DRAWING

24. The candidate should have a knowledge of the proper methods of using the T-square, triangles, and other drawing instruments, with special reference to their use in drawing parallel lines, erecting perpendiculars, and in drawing arcs of circles and irregular

curves.

The plates presented should include examples of geometric constructions, orthographic projection, isometric projection and working drawings of simple objects. It is not desirable that all plates be inked. (1⁄2 or I unit).

SHOPWORK

25. The candidate should present evidence of sufficient training to enable him to execute a piece of work with skill, accuracy and

neatness in each of the branches offered for admission; he should be acquainted with the materials used in the various classes of work and should understand the physical properties of these materials; he should have a good working knowledge of the tools and machines of the different branches of shopwork and should understand their care and operation. It is especially necessary that the candidate should have a thorough understanding of the process used and the principles involved in all of the work that he does.

In woodworking, forge work and foundry work one year's time is required in preparation for each subject, and in machine shopwork two years' time is required.

A detailed statement of the work done must be presented signed by the school instructor or shop superintendent. (1⁄2 or I unit).

CIVICS

26. The candidate is expected to have an accurate knowledge of local and state government and a general knowledge of the national government. Emphasis is placed on government proper rather than governmental policies such as tariff, railroad regulation and the like.

Fiske's Civil Government in the United States and Forman's Advanced Civics are suitable text-books. Hart's Actual Government and Johnson's History of American Politics are good reference books.

A brief course in Civics may be combined with United States History to make up a unit. (1 unit).

STENOGRAPHY

27. Speed and accuracy are the tests of the candidate's preparation in this topic. The Isaac Pitman system is preferred. A speed of sixty words per minute is required. (1⁄2 unit).

COMMERCIAL SUBJECTS

28. A limited amount of credit is allowed, in certain cases, for high school courses in commercial subjects. (2 or I unit).

AGRICULTURE

29. For secondary school agriculture, as taught in schools approved by the Faculty of its College of Agriculture, credit to the ex

tent of two units will be allowed, provided that one of these units shall be in subjects which essentially are applied Botany or applied Zoology. (2 to 2 units).

HOME ECONOMICS

30. A limited amount of credit is allowed in certain cases for courses in secondary school Home Economics. (1⁄2 or I unit).

SPECIAL STUDENTS

Persons of suitable age and attainment, by special permission of the Faculty and by the payment of specified fees, may pursue certain studies in connection with the regular college classes without becoming matriculate members of the University. It should be understood clearly, however, that this privilege is not intended for students who are unable to pursue one of the regular curricula, but for those whose previous study and attainments enable them to pursue with profit a special course of study in a particular department. They will be registered and enrolled in the same manner as regular students, and from the time of their admission will be entitled to the privileges and subject to all the regulations of the University. Credit for courses completed as a special student will not be counted toward a degree unless the regular entrance requirements of the University have been satisfied.

Such students, when first enrolled, pay a Registration Fee of five dollars ($5.00). The charge for a course for three or more credit hours is ten dollars ($10.00) per half year, while courses of less than three credit hours are five dollars ($5.00) per half year. The usual laboratory and breakage fees are charged. Special students are not eligible to hold University scholarships.

ADMISSION TO ADVANCED STANDING

Candidates for advanced standing must meet the regular entrance requirements of this University, and also must pass examinations in such studies already pursued by the class they wish to enter as are deemed necessary to determine their fitness to continue therein. In case of failure to pass examinations, candidates will be expected to drop back one year in standing. Candidates coming from another university or college of recognized standing will be accepted

without examination by transfer of credits. A certified statement of entrance and college work must be presented together with a letter of honorable dismissal.

THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION

1. Applicants who have fulfilled any of the following conditions will be admitted without examinations:

a.

Those who have received a baccalaureate degree from any college or university which maintains a satisfactory academic standard, provided laboratory courses in General and Organic Chemistry, Physics, and Biology have been completed.

b. Those who have completed satisfactorily two years, aggregating at least 60 semester hours, in any college or university which maintains a satisfactory academic standard, provided the courses completed include the prescribed work in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English, and an advanced course in French or German.

No student having conditions in secondary or college work will be admitted to the College of Medicine.

COMBINATION OF ACADEMIC AND MEDICAL CURRICULA

It is strongly recommended that students who intend to take the degree of Doctor of Medicine should first complete one of the regular four-year courses in the College of Arts and Sciences. For those who find it necessary to shorten their preparation, the University provides a combination course of seven years which leads to the two degrees. See pages 168-169.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS FROM OTHER MEDICAL COLLEGES

The same standard of preliminary education will be required of students coming from other medical colleges as is required of students entering this College.

Students desiring advanced standing are subject to the same rules, in regard to advancement in course, as students who have attended this College. No applicant for advanced standing will be enrolled under more favorable conditions than would obtain were he to continue at the institution from which he seeks to transfer.
