Course A is designed for students who desire to begin the study of Greek after entering the University. Course B is provided for students who have credit for Matriculation Subject only. Courses 2 and 1A (or 1) constitute the regular Freshman work in Greek and are prescribed for the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Course 1 is also elective when taken in addition to other work in Greek, to students who wish to devote more than one half-year to Homer. In this course the most important parts of the Iliad and the Odyssey are read in two successive years.

The courses marked "advanced" are open to graduates and undergraduates who have completed courses 1A (or 1), 2 and 7A, together with the special prerequisites named under the several courses.

Teachers' Certificates. Students will be recommended for teachers' certificates who, at graduation, or after, shall have completed with credit Course 6в in addition to twenty-one units of University work in Greek. Graduate students will be recommended on proof of having creditably completed work equivalent to that required of undergraduates.

This course covers the same ground as Matriculation Subject 9, and is provided for students who have completed only Course 8. It may be counted for prescribed or free elective work, in all colleges, subject to their regulations. Students who take this course in their Freshman year should take Courses 2 and la (or 1) in their Sophomore year. It is not impossible for such

students to do advanced work in Greek and even to receive a teachers' certificate at graduation.
