19f1. Farm Mechanics, Farm Architecture and Farm Management. (1

units.)

A half-year course of five periods per week or the equivalent to be devoted to such portions of the requirement for 19f as are adapted to any school where a full year course may not be given. This course may be arranged to extend throughout the year with work equivalent to at least two and one-half periods each week.

Explanatory Note-The total number of units offered by a school giving all the full length courses would be 15, that is 19a (3) + 19b (11⁄2) + 19c (3) 19d (1%) + 19e (3) + 19f (3). It is not likely that many schools will offer all these and many will probably prefer to offer halfyear instead of year courses in certain subjects as listed above.

The total amount of credit that may be used toward university matricu lation is now 9 units.

20a. Economic Geography. (11⁄2 units.)

Five periods a week for one half-year.

Economic geography should be considered as an aspect of general geography, rather than as a distinct branch of the science. It should be based on the general principles of mathematical, physical and biogeography. While including a study of countries, products, trade routes, etc., the chief emphasis of the course should be placed on the relations which exist between the fundamental principles of geography and the economic interests of man.

206. Commercial and Industrial History. (3 units.)

This subject should comprise, in broad outline, the development of commercial and industrial activities in the western world. lt should discuss such subjects as the economic inheritance from Rome and the East; the gradual renewal of trading activity after the Teutonic invasions; the revival of commerce under Arab influence; the growth from village to town economy; the Renaissance in Italy and the commercial supremacy of the city republics; the Age of Discovery and the development of economic "nationalities;" the industrial revolution and the conception of international division of labor; modern international trade and its significance, etc. Emphasis should be laid on the interaction of political and economic factors in the growth of Western civilization; on the evolution and decay of economic institutions'; and on "movements" rather than the facts of any particular period.

20c. Bookkeeping. (3 units.)

A knowledge of the principles of double entry bookkeeping, based on five double periods weekly for one year, or its equivalent.

20d. Stenography and Typewriting. (3 or 6 units.)

Not more than one-fourth of the accredited work is to be typewriting

For 3 units credit, the student should be able to take stenographic dictation at the rate of 75 words per minute. For 6 units, the rate is

125 words per minute.

The student must also have ability to transcribe notes satisfactorily on the typewriter.

21. Music. (3 to 9 units.)

21a. Sight-singing and Dictation; Symbols and Terminology of Musical Notation. (3 units.)

1. Ability to read, without hesitation, at sight, in good rhythm, a given simple melody in any commonly used key (major or minor) containing occasional notes out of the scale, but no very remote modulations, i.e., not beyond dominant or subdominant or relative major or minor.

2. Ability to write in musical notation (G and F clefs) marking proper meter (2, 3, or 4) any simple melody when played or sung at dictation. Familiarity with the three primary triads is useful, but not required.

Suspension and retardation. Modulation (simple). Anticipation and embellishment.

For students who continue the study of music in the University credit for subject 21b should be preceded or accompanied by credit in subject 21a.

21c. Instrumental or Vocal Technique. (3 units.)

1. Ability to perform with satisfactory technique and intelligent interpretation one or more numbers in one of the following sections: (a) Pianoforte: Bach, "Well-Tempered Clavichord," Prelude or Fugue; 2 and 3 part Inventions; Mozart or Beethoven, a sonata; Chopin, study, nocturne or prelude of moderate difficulty.

METHODS OF ADMISSION

1. ADMISSION BY EXAMINATION

Times and Places of Examination

Matriculation examinations are held in August and in January of each year; but the examinations in January are primarily for the purpose of enabling students in the University to remove matriculation deficiencies. Applicants for admission who present certificates from their teachers that they are prepared in the subjects they offer will be admitted to the January examinations. Such certificates must be filed with the Recorder of the Faculties before the examinations.

No person save a registered student of the University will be allowed to take any matriculation examination without having first filed an application for admission.

A circular regarding the matriculation examinations may be obtained by addressing the Recorder of the Faculties.

College Entrance Examination Board

Certificates of successful examinations before the College Entrance Examination Board will be accepted in lieu of matriculation examinations conducted by the University of California in all of the preparatory subjects, but at present the Board holds no examination covering the ground of English 14b.

The entrance examinations of the College Entrance Examination Board are usually held during the third week in June-1916, June 12-17.

All applications for examination must be addressed to the Secretary of the College Entrance Examination Board, Postoffice Sub-station 84, New York, N. Y., and must be made upon a blank form to be obtained from the Secretary of the Board upon application.

Applications for examination at points in the United States east of the Mississippi River, also at Minneapolis, St. Louis, and other points on the Mississippi River, must be received by the Secretary of the Board at least two weeks in advance of the examinations; applications for examination elsewhere in the United States or in Canada must be received at least three weeks in advance of the examinations; and applications for examinations outside of the United States and Canada must be received at least five weeks in advance of the examinations.

Applications received later than the dates named will be accepted when it is possible to arrange for the examination of the candidates concerned, but only upon the payment of $5 in addition to the usual fee.

The examination fee is $5 for all candidates examined at points in the United States and Canada and $15 for all candidates examined outside the United States and Canada. The fee (which cannot be accepted in advance of the application) should be remitted by postal order, express order, or draft on New York to the order of the College Entrance Exami. nation Board.

A list of the places at which examinations are held by the Board is published about May 1. Requests that the examinations be held at particular points, to receive proper consideration, should be transmitted to the Secretary of the Board not later than February 1.

Points on the Pacific Coast at which examinations are usually held are as follows: Berkeley, Los Angeles, Nordhoff, Stanford University, Portland, Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma.

Dividing of Matriculation Examinations

An applicant for admission may, if he prefers, take his matriculation examinations in two parts-(a) preliminary, (b) final-but not more than two. The preliminary examination may be taken either in August or January. The final examination must be taken not later than eighteen months after the preliminary examination. The applicant may divide his examinations in any way that he prefers, provided that he passes the required 45 units during the two examination periods taken together. Applicants who are twenty-one years of age or who have been graduated from four-year courses in high schools or other secondary schools are not subject to the above limitations as to the division of examinations, but they may take their examinations at such times as they prefer until all the required examinations shall have been passed. For the purpose of division between two series of examinations, the examinations given in June by the College Entrance Examination Board and those in August given by the University in the same year may count as one series, the applicant, at his option, taking a part in June and a part in August.

2. ADMISSION FROM ACCREDITED SCHOOLS IN CALIFORNIA Admission from accredited schools is regulated by the following Order of the Regents, passed March 4, 1884, and amended September 10, 1895, and January 10, 1905:

"Upon the request of the principal of any public or private school in California whose course of study embraces, in kind and extent, the subjects required for admission to any college of the University at Berkeley, a committee of the Academic Senate will visit such school and report upon the quality of the instruction there given. If the report
