malian anatomy, but is otherwise essentially a research course for 5. ELEMENTARY ENTOMOLOGY.-(See Entomology 1.) 8. THESIS INVESTIGATION.-Candidates for graduation who select a zoological subject as a thesis are required to spend three hours a day during their senior year in making a detailed investigation of the selected topics. While this work is done under the general supervision of an instructor, it is in its methods and responsibilities essentially original work. I., II.; arrange time; (5). Professor FORBES and Assistant Professor SMITH. Required: Two years in zoological courses, including one semester of Zoology 4. 9. TEACHER'S COURSE IN ZOOLOGY.-Offered especially to prospective teachers of zoology in high schools. Includes work in the field, laboratory and library, the management of excursions, the collection and preparation of material, the selection, assignment, and management of subjects for individual study, and the determination and study of the animal forms of a restricted locality. High school courses of zoological study will be collected, compared, and criticised, and methods of management and instruction in secondary schools will be compared and discussed with reference to general pedagogical theory and to the special ends of the teacher of zoology. II.; 6, 7; (3). Professor FORBES. Required: Zoology 1, also Zoology 2, or Entomology 2 or 3. 10. INTRODUCTORY ZOOLOGY.-This is a field, laboratory, and lecture course, mainly on the morphology, physiology, and oecology of type forms, and on the more obvious features of sytology and development. The work leads to an acquaintance with the simpler generalizations of zoological theory, and is intended especially as a preparation for courses 1 and 2. Students who present an entrance credit in zoology or biology may take as a fractional course those parts of this work not covered in their previous study. I.; 1, 2; (5). Assistant Professor SMITH and Mr. MCCLellan. II. GENERAL ZOOLOGY.-This course is especially designed for students in the College of Literature and Arts who do not intend taking more than one year's work in zoology. The chief aim will be to give such important facts and generalizations as can be made intelligible in a brief course. The laboratory work will be planned to serve as a partial basis for lectures and reference reading on facts and theories of organic evolution with the related topics of variation and heredity. This course is not adapted to serve as an introductory course in zoology nor as a preparation for teaching. I., II.; M., W.; 6, 7; (2). Assistant Professor SMITH and Mr. MCCLELLAN. Required: At least one year of University work. 12. STATISTICAL ZOOLOGY.-This course is offered for student; taking Mathematics 26. It includes lectures and reference reading on the application of statistical methods to biological problems. The history of the development of this mode of biological investigation, the nature of the problems to which it is applicable and some of the results already obtained in the study of variations, heredity, distribution and phylogeny are among the topics considered. Students taking this course, together with Mathematics 26b, ordinarily use for the problems of the latter course, zoological data that have been obtained either by their own observations or from other sources. If desired the combined credits of this course and Mathematics 26 may be counted as 5 credits either in zoology or in mathematics II.; F.; 7; (1 or 5). Assistant Professor SMITH. Required: Mathematics 2, 4, 6, 8a, and at least ten hours of University work in Zoology or in Zoology and Entomology. COURSES FOR GRADUATES. IOI. PLANKTON ZOOLOGY.-Instruction and practice will be given in modern methods of studying minute forms of aquatic life with the aid of a plankton apparatus and laboratory equipment. This work includes both a qualitative and a quantitative investigation of the minute zoological contents of a selected body of water, carried on systematically through a considerable period, and the generalization of the results of such study by the methods peculiar to the planktologist. 102. FRESH-WATER ICHTHYOLOGY.-The large collections of fishes belonging to the University and the State Laboratory of Natural History, together with the ichthyological library of the latter, are open to students who wish to become acquainted with the ichthyology of a fresh-water situation. Both qualitative and quantitative studies of the fishes of a selected body of water are made, and papers written presenting the results of personal studies in this field. 103. FRESH-WATER AND TERRESTRIAL ANNELIDS.-This is an application of the methods of the zoological laboratory to the study of the annelid worms of the land and the inland waters of North America. The description of genera and species, practice in drawing for publication, and experimental work on the physiology and oecology of selected forms will be included in this course. DEGREES BACHELORS' DEGREES The usual bachelors' degrees are conferred upon those who satisfactorily complete the courses of study described under the different colleges and schools. A candidate for a bachelor's degree must pass in the subjects marked prescribed in his chosen course, and must conform to the directions given in connection with that course in regard to electives. In the College of Literature and Arts, of Science, and of Agriculture, credit for 130 hours is required for graduation. In the College of Engineering, in the College of Law, and in the Schools of Music and Library Science the candidate must complete the course of study as laid down. The number of hours required includes five in military drill and tactics, and two in physical training, for men, and three in physical training for women. Men excused from the military requirements, and women who do not take courses in physical training, must elect in lieu thereof an equivalent number of hours in other subjects. In all cases in which a thesis is required,* the subject must be announced not later than the first Monday in November, and the completed thesis must be submitted to the dean of the proper college by June 1st. The work must be done under the direction of the professor in whose department the subject naturally belongs, and must be in the line of the course of study for which a degree is expected. The thesis must be presented upon regulation paper, and will be deposited in the library of the University. I. The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred on those who complete a course in the College of Literature and Arts, or of Science. 2. The degree of Bachelor of Science is conferred on those who complete a course in the College of Engineering, or of Agriculture. This degree may be conferred on a graduate of the College of Science on recommendation of the Faculty, as announced on p. 103. The name of the course is inserted in the diploma. 3. The degree of Bachelor of Laws is conferred on those who complete the course in the College of Law. 4. The degree of Doctor of Medicine is conferred on those who complete the course in the College of Medicine. 5. The degree of Bachelor of Library Science is conferred on those who complete the course in the School of Library Science. 6. The degree of Bachelor of Music is conferred on those who complete one of the courses in the School of Music. 7. The degree of Graduate in Pharmacy is conferred on those who complete the course in the School of Phar macy. 8. The degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery is conferred on those who complete the course in the School of Dentistry. ADVANCED DEGREES No degrees are given for study in absentia, except that graduates of this University, who become members of the Graduate School and reside elsewhere, may receive a master's degree upon the completion of their courses of study within not less than three years of the date of registration. Advanced degrees are conferred by the Trustees of the University only upon recommendation of the Senate, based upon information furnished by the Council of Administra |
