versity course in oral or written composition other than the course described above, except that foreign students may be permitted to elect a course especially designed for them. (4) Intrants who fail to present themselves for the examination at the time appointed will be charged a fee of two dollars when they enter the examination for the first time. (5) For students who enter with advanced standing subject A is a requirement for junior standing. To those who pass with grade 3 English 1A is prescribed. The examination will be composed, set, and judged under the direction of the Committee on subject A, and its requirements and penalties will be enforced by the deans and other proper authorities of the several colleges, including the study-lists committees. Subject B.*—(a) For the junior certificate. The junior certificate will be granted only to such candidates as shall demonstrate their ability to read intelligently a piece of ordinary prose in French, German, Greek, Italian, Latin, or Spanish, and to render it into good English. Students should concentrate on one foreign language (the one needed in future work) and should make use of this language as soon as possible. This requirement, like subject A, is not to be satisfied by the mere completion of courses or units; it may be satisfied only by passing an examination set by a university committee. This requirement is known as "Subject B." Students who have entered the University from institutions in a foreign country, in which the language of instruction is other than English, may, at the discretion of the Committee on Credentials, be permitted to substitute for the regular examination in Subject B an examination which shall consist of translation into the language in which their preparatory training has been received of a passage of English or a passage of French, German, Greek, Italian, Latin, or Spanish. (b) For Honors. Each department is authorized to require of students who wish to be candidates for honors in that department, in addition to the prerequisites for specific courses, a reading knowledge of one of the foreign languages mentioned in the preceding paragraph. Individual instructors may make such further language requirements for specific courses as they deem wise, but such requirements shall be explicitly stated in the Announcement of Courses. All matriculation deficiencies must be removed before the student leaves the lower division. Students who do not take military science, physical education, or hygiene must make up the deficiency in hours in other departments of study. The requirements for the junior certificate in the College of Letters and Science may be summarized as follows: By authority of the Academic Senate, Subject B has been rescinded as a degree requirement for students in attendance during the period of the war. SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR THE JUNIOR CERTIFICATE, INCLUDING REQUIREMENTS FOR MATRICULATION Units of Credit. In this table the normal amount of work represented both by preparatory or high school subjects, and by the University courses, is specified quantitatively. In the University a unit signifies one hour per week of recitation or lecture, with preparation therefor, during one half-year. A course of study taken in the preparatory school for one year at five periods per week is valued at 3 units. Work in laboratory or field, or other work not requiring out-of-class preparation, is estimated at lower rate than recitations and lectures. [The requirements are stated in "units"; see above for explanation.] Any one, or any combination, of the following: or Advanced 6 UNITS FOR JUNIOR CERTIFICATE, INCLUDING MATRICULATION* 109) *Due to the establishment at the University of a unit of the Students' Army Training Corps, the curricula announced in this Circular of Information (and in particular the statements concerning prescribed work in military science and tactics) `are subject to revision for the year 1918-19. FOOTNOTES TO TABLE 1. Matriculation.-The candidate for admission must have chosen his 45 units in such a way as to have a total of 12 units of subjects designated as "advanced," including one of the following sciences, if taken with laboratory work, in the third or fourth year of the high school course: physics, chemistry, botany, zoology, physiology. Students who enter the University without the required work in science may remove this deficiency only by taking additional work in science after admission; a matriculation deficiency in chemistry or physics can be made up in the University only during the summer session. The preparatory subjects listed as "advanced" are 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 (excluding the sciences of the first and second years of the high school), 13b, 14, 15a3, 15a*, 15b3, 15b*, 15c3, 15c*. Of foreign language (Greek, Latin, German, etc.) the student must have credit for 12 units, unless he has credit also for intermediate or advanced mathematics or surplus advanced science, in which case not to exceed 6 units of such work in science or mathematics or a combination of the two may be substituted for an equal amount of foreign language. Applicants who expect to take up courses of study presupposing a knowledge of the elements of physics or chemistry, with laboratory practice (matriculation subjects 11, 12b), should take this work either during the high school course or during the university summer sessions. No equivalent for this work is offered during the regular sessions of the University. Applicants for courses of study requiring matriculation Latin, subject 6, should notice that the University does not offer instruction in this subject in any session. See Recommendations for the Various Curricula, under Admission Requirements, above. 2. Mathematics, Plan A.-The requirements in mathematics and logic are as follows: A total of 12 units in mathematics, or in mathematics and logic, with the following restrictions: there must be a minimum of 6 units of mathematics for matriculation (subjects 2, 3); those who enter the University with but 6 units of mathematics must complete the required 12 units by taking either 6 units in mathematics alone, or 6 units in logic alone; those who bring more than 6 and less than 12 units of mathematics for matriculation may complete the required 12 units either in mathematies, or in logic, or in a combination of the two. For students who in any half-year complete a five-unit lower division course in mathematics, the prescription in mathematics is reduced by one (1) unit for each five-unit course so taken. 3. Mathematics, Plan B.-Students in this group must have credit for 12 units in mathematics, without alternative for any part thereof. For students who in any half-year complete a five-unit lower division course in mathematics, the prescription in mathematics is reduced by one (1) unit for each five-unit course so taken. 4. Prescribed Natural Science.-The prescribed work in science taken in college must be chosen from the following fundamental courses. Laboratory courses are indicated by an asterisk (*) following the number of the course: Agricultural Chemistry 1, 2*. Astronomy 1, 1-2*, 2A-2E*, 5, 11. Botany, 1A-1B, 2*, 3*. Chemistry 1A-1B*, 5* or 6A*-6B*, 8, 9*. Entomology, 1, 3 or 4*. Genetics 1*. Geography 1c, 2c*, lc-2c*. Geology 1A, 1B, 6. Mineralogy 1A, 1в*, 2A, 2B*. Palaeontology 1, 2*. Bacteriology 1*. Physics 1A-1в*, 1AB*, 2A-2B, 2C-2D*, 3A-3в*, 18*. Physiology 1*, 2*. Soils 2. Zoology 1A*, 1в*, 10. Students in the College of Letters and Science who pursue the regular technical Course in Architecture may substitute Drawing 3A, 3B, 3C, 6 units, for an equivalent number of units of science in fulfillmen, of junior certificate reqirements. All references in these notes to specific courses of instruction apply to the courses as designated in the Announcement of Courses for 1918-19. 5. Prescribed Foreign Language. For students who in any half-year complete a five-unit lower division course in foreign language, the prescription in foreign language is reduced by one (1) unit for each five-unit course so taken. Curricula in Public Health.-There are three curricula (see above, under Admission Requirements; see also the curricula in detail, published elsewhere in this bulletin). It will be necessary for candidates for the degree of Graduate in Public Health to select their studies in the lower division (freshman-sophomore years) in such a way as to satisfy the prerequisites for the curriculum selected. Pre-Medical Requirements. For statement of matriculation requirements in the Medical School, see under Medical School in later pages of this circular. Students in the Technical Course in Architecture must complete all the requirements for the junior certificate in the College of Letters and Science, including among the prescribed or the elective studies: mathematics, 24 units; physics, 9 units; drawing, 16 units; civil engineering, 2 units; architecture, 9 units. The work in mathematics, physics, civil engineering and six units of the work in drawing is identical with the work in these subjects in the colleges of engineering. Home Economics. Students who intend to do advanced work in Household Art should have completed the requirements for the junior certificate in the College of Letters and Science, including matriculation subjects 18c and 18e or their equivalents, and botany and chemistry, Graphic Art 6, History 1A-1B, Economics 1A-1B. Courses recommended: Household Art 1A-1B, Chemistry 1A-1B, Graphic Art 7 and 14A-14B, Architecture 5, Political Science 1A, 1B, Drawing 9. Students who intend to specialize in house furnishing should take in addition Drawing CD; Drawing 3A, 3B, and 3c are recommended. Students who intend to specialize in the scientific study of textiles should take Chemistry 1A-1B. To enter on advanced work in Household Science the student' should have completed the requirements for the junior certificate in the College of Letters and Science, including matriculation subject 18d, Chemistry 1A-1B, 5, 8; Economics 1A-1B. Physiology 1, and Bacteriology 1 are strongly recommended. A suggested schedule of lower division work for either branch may be obtained at the office of the Recorder of the Faculties. UPPER DIVISION Students will not be registered in the upper division until all matriculation and lower division requirements have been completed. The minimum requirements for graduation which must be satisfied by all students during their residence in the upper division are as follows: 1. Except as provided below, the work of the upper division must be extended over a period of not less than two years' residence. Two summer sessions are equivalent in point of residence to one half-year. Study-list limits per half-year in the upper division, 12-16 units; summer session, 4-6 units. 2. The amount of work done by each student must be sufficient, when added to that already completed by him in the lower division, to amount to 124 units.‡ This rule may, in exceptional cases, be set aside; but only on condition that the student devote more than four years to the completion of the undergraduate curriculum. The requirement of two years of residence in the upper division does not apply to students who receive honors at graduation. Except that students in the School of Jurisprudence may offer the first year of the professional course, 26 units in lieu of all senior requirements in the College of Letters and Science, thus qualifying for A. B. on a schedule of 120 units. |
