Credit by examination. Provision will be made for the satisfaction of requirements (b) to (e) inclusive by examination in lieu of the completion of the usual course requirements. Applicants for such examination must give notice of their intention to the Recorder of the Faculties and secure the authorization of the Executive Committee of the College of Letters and Science by written petition. Such authorization will not be given if the preparation for the examination was based on course instruction received at the University of California.

Honorable mention with the junior certificate. Honorable mention will be granted with the junior certificate to students who attain at least second grade in 45 units. A student who gains honorable mention is thereby considered eligible for the honors-status in the upper division.

UPPER DIVISION

In and after August 1921 except as noted above under Lower Division, only those students who have been granted the junior certificate, signifying their completion of lower division requirements, will be registered in the upper division.

The degree of Bachelor of Arts will be granted upon the following conditions:

(1) At least 54 units of college work must be completed after the receipt of the junior certificate.

(2) At least 36 units of work done in the upper division must be in upper division or graduate courses in the following departments:

[blocks in formation]
[blocks in formation]

(3) At least 12 of the upper division units required must be taken in a single department exclusive of courses in Library Science, Agriculture, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Mining, Civil Engineering, and Irrigation. (However, candidates for A.B. to be conferred not later than May 1921, may present 12 units of work in Library Science in satisfaction of this requirement.)

(4) The total number of units of college courses in the lower and upper divisions offered for the degree must be at least 120.

Study-list limits in the upper division are 12 to 16 units per half-year, including credit for work taken to make up deficiencies.

Undergraduate Majors. A student who desires to devote special attention to the work of a particular department during his undergraduate period, or to prepare himself for effective graduate work in such department is advised to elect a major in that department. A major consists of a substantial group of co-ordinated upper division courses taken under the advice of the department of the student's choice. Such department is known as the student's major department. Honors at graduation are given only to students who have given evidence of superior scholarship in the work of their major subject.

Candidates for honors at graduation may be required by their major department to take as much as 24 units, instead of 12, in upper division courses of that department.

Preparation for Master's Degree. Students who intend to proceed to the master's degree may find that the 12-unit minimum of upper division Courses is not sufficient to enable them to secure the master's degree in one year.

CANDIDACY FOR HONORS

The attention of juniors and seniors is called to the fact that the only requirement for registration as honors students is the formal approval of the department of their choice. Serious students who have done reasonably well in the lower division are strongly recommended to avail themselves of the advantages which they can derive as honors

students from the personal guidance and supervision of the members of the department in which they choose to do their major work. In the College of Letters and Science, juniors and seniors who wish to register as honors-students use a special form of study-list which may be obtained at the time of registration.

Any student who is approved by his major department as a member of the honors group will, so long as he remains in the honors group, report at the beginning of each half-year to the department of his major work. The department will advise him in the choice of his studies and will specifically approve all courses taken in the department of the student's major.

After the first half of the junior year the Committee on Candidates for Honors, will, upon the recommendation of the several departments, decide what students shall remain in the honors group, and what students shall be promoted to the honors group. In determining these matters, the committee will consider not only the student's work in the department of his major but his entire record.

The several departments have full freedom in determining the most efficacious methods for the training of candidates for honors; but no student will be required to take more than 24 units of upper division work in the department of his major. Departments may offer special honors courses in reading and research, with credit to be determined by the instructors in charge, according to the performance of the individual student, subject to such general restrictions as may be imposed by the department and by the Committee on Courses of Instruction. The work of the student in such an honors course may consist of additional work in connection with regular courses of instruction, or may be independent of such courses.

It will be quite possible, though perhaps not often desirable, for a student who is enrolled as a candidate for honors in one department to be transferred to another. In order to make such a change, it will be necessary for him to secure the consent of the department to which he desires to be transferred. If, therefore, at the beginning of his junior year, a student who is eligible for candidacy has not yet finally determined upon his major subject, he should enroll with the department to which he is most inclined at the time, understanding that at the beginning of any subsequent term he may make a change in accordance with the conditions just stated.

Before Commencement, a department satisfies itself by means of a general final examination, or in such other manner as it may deem best, of the fitness of each candidate for honors at graduation. Candidates who, in the judgment of their departments, display marked superiority in their major subject, receive the special distinction of highest honors. The list of students upon whom honors and highest honors are conferred,
