ANTHROPOLOGY Professors: A. L. KROEBER, P. RADIN. Facilities.-Anthropology and related subjects are well represented in the University Library, which contains probably the largest assemblage of anthropological books and journals in the western half of the country. While not exhaustive, the materials are present for an intensive study of almost any field. The equipment is increasing, and provision can be made for special additions in almost any line of anthropological study. Some of the very notable material in the Library of Pacific Coast History (Bancroft Collection) is of an ethnological nature, and offers an unsurpassed field for original work. The department possesses a full equipment of anthropological apparatus-psychological, phonetic, photographic, anthropometric-now available for field work, besides five thousand unpublished photographic negatives and nearly two thousand original phonograph records of Indian music and speech. It is possible for students to combine library and museum study by making use of certain selected collections kept in the building on the University campus known as the Berkeley division of the Museum, or the larger collections in San Francisco. Work at either center is counted as residence at the University. As regards facilities for field work in anthropology, the University occupies a unique position. Many living tribes as well as ancient sites are readily accessible from the University, and Indians are frequent visitors at the Museum. Advanced students have frequently been provided in the past with opportunities for direct enthnographical, linguistic, and archaeological experience in the field. Research. For research in ethnography, material culture, or archaeology, the extensive collections of the University's Anthropological Museum are available and convenient. The administration of the Museum is in the hands of the department and every facility can be given for the prosecution of studies. The Museum itself is the largest, in anthropology, west of Chicago, and one of the six largest in America. While temporarily lodged in a three-story building at the Affiliated Colleges in San Francisco, the collections are in large part on display and in a favorable situation for study-in many ways rather more conveniently arranged, in fact, than if they were on permanent exhibition or in storage. The most noteworthy assemblages in the Museum are in the line of Egyptian, Classical, and Peruvian antiquities, and the ethnography of the California Indians. From other regions there are less extensive collections, and almost every part of the world has some representation. Publications. The results of the work done in the department have been embodied in a series of publications (University of California Publications in American Archaeology and Ethnology), of which fourteen volumes have been issued, while others are in preparation. These volumes consist in part of work done by graduate students. Higher Degrees.-The work which has fallen under the supervision of the department embraces such a wide variety of topics that it is almost impossible to specify any particular preparation as being most useful. For the physical side of anthropology, training in palaeontology, zoology, and comparative anatomy is most essential For work in linguistics or cultural anthropology, appropriate subjects will suggest themselves. Students who plan to become candidates for higher degrees should consult with the department regarding their proposed plans of work. 145. Ethnology of Mexico and Central America. 199A-199B.

CUMMINGS, W. C. PERRY. Instructor: R. W. JEANS. Lecturer: W. E. LELAND. Facilities.-The School of Architecture offers opportunities for graduate work in planning and composition, advanced design, research work, and professional practice and business relations. Students may do thesis work for a master's degree, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, or for the degree of Graduate in Architecture, as their preparation may qualify them for such study. There is in the Architecture Building a reference library of over eight hundred and fifty volumes, accessible to the students at all times. Preliminary Requirements.-The following is a list of the subjects which should be completed before full graduate standing in the school can be attained: I. Matriculation under group II; II. In the lower division; English, Latin, history, modern foreign languages as required by the college chosen for junior certificate; mathematics 3A-3B, 4A-4B; drawing, 2A-2в; graphic art 14A-14B; physics 1A1B; civil engineering 8B; and architecture 5A-5B, 11, 12A-12B, 13A-13B. III. In the Junior and the Senior years: (a) Architecture 5c-5D, 12A12B, 13A, 14A-14B, 101A-101B, 105c-105D, 106A-106в; Civil Engineering 117, 118A-118B, 127; Drawing, 105, 110. (b) Architecture 5E-5F, 12A12B, 14A-14B, 102A-102в, 105E-105F, 106c-106D, 108A-108B; Civil Engineering 107E-107F, 108F, 115. Graduate in Architecture. In addition to full graduate standing in the School of Architecture, the following courses must be completed in order to meet the requirements for the degree of Graduate in Architecture: Architecture 203A-203B, 204, 206E-206F, 299A-299B, 209A-209в, 216; Civil Engineering 1E, 116. The above program normally requires two years of study. However, only one year in residence as a graduate student is required, provided that the complete curriculum as outlined may be completed in this period of time. Graduate Courses.-The 'special graduate courses given, including research work for the master's degree, are Architecture 203A-203в, 206E206F, and 299A-299в. The prerequisites to these courses are Architecture 102 and 106. ASTRONOMY BERKELEY ASTRONOMICAL DEPARTMENT (STUDENTS' OBSERVATORY, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA) Professors: A. O. LEUSCHNER, Director of the Students' Observatory, R. T. CRAWFORD, S. EINARSSON, W. F. MEYER. Facilities. The equipment of the observatory consists of the following instruments: An eight-inch reflector suitable for visual and photographic observations, gift of the Hon. Wm. M. Pierson; a six-inch refractor with position micrometer; a five-inch refractor, gift of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Oelrichs; a six-inch photographic telescope and a five-inch photographic telescope with a three-inch guiding telescope, all equatorially mounted with driving clocks; a three-inch equatorial without driving clock; a Bamberg prismatic transit with self-registering micrometer; a three-inch Davidson combination transit-and-zenith telescope; a twoinch transit; a two-inch altazimuth instrument; two surveyor's transits with solar attachments; spectroscopes; a Pickering photometer; a Repsold engine for measuring astronomical photographs; a Gaertner microscope for measuring spectrograms; electro-chronographs; a Harkness spherometer; a level-trier; six sextants; three chronometers, a Riefler Sidereal clock; a Howard Mean Time clock; and all necessary electric connections for recording time and determining longitude by the telegraphic method. The University Library and the library of the Students' Observatory contain an excellent collection of standard and current works in all branches of astronomy, including complete sets of most of the astronomical periodicals and publications of learned societies Research. The principal researches of the Berkeley Astronomical Department at the present time are in celestial mechanics, with special reference to the numerical accuracy of the various methods of determining disturbed and undisturbed orbits. The equipment permits of practically all classes of astronomical observations not requiring especially powerful telescopes. Every graduate student is expected to participate in the calculation of one or more preliminary orbits of newly discovered asteroids, comets, or satellites. The department makes it a practice to provide orbits and ephemerides for all new or returned comets. A computing bureau for the investigation of the perturbations of the minor planets discovered by Watson has been maintained under the direction of Professor Leusch |
