The work of the College of Religious and Social Science is on the same plane as that of the other undergraduate Colleges of the University. The entrance requirements are equivalent, and the amount of work required for a Bachelor's degree (four years) is the same. In accordance with the general organization of the University, the first two years of the College of Religious and Social Science constitute the Junior College, on the completion of which a certificate and the title of Associate are given and the student enters the Senior College. In each College eighteen Majors are required. The curriculum of the School is arranged, as far as II. possible, to accommodate the different classes of students who may be enrolled in its courses. The main difference lies between students who are planning to enter the ministry and those who are intending to enter general religious or philanthropic work. As will appear below, the student makes his selection between the two general curricula in accordance with the general field of work for which he is preparing. In connection with the Social Science Center at the University College, lectures will be given by specialists in social work. Credit will be given in accordance with the University regulations governing such work. ADMISSION Admission to the College of Religious and Social Science as a regular student requires the completion of four years' preparatory work in a secondary school (high school or academy), of high grade. For required subjects see page 59 of this Register. The courses offered in the College are also open to unclassified students-that is, undergraduate students rot seeking a degree—who are not less than twenty-one years of age, and who satisfy the Dean and the instructor concerned as to their fitness for the work and who give sufficient reason for not entering as regular students. For the detailed description of these required and recommended courses, see the curricula of the various Departments in Part III of this Register.

INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT For several years the University of Chicago has offered courses suitable for students who were preparing to undertake medical work, and also in several of the subjects usually included in the first two years of a medical college curriculum. In 1899 provision was made for courses in Practical Anatomy, and under the arrangement of affiliation with Rush Medical College, the University offered, during the session of 1899-1900, courses corresponding to all of the work of the Freshman year of that institution. Since June 19, 1901, the University offers instruction in all of the subjects of the first two years of the medical curriculum; namely, in Anatomy, both gross and microscopic, Neurology, Embryology, Physiology, Physiological Chemistry, Inorganic, Organic, and Analytical Chemistry, Toxicology, Pathology, Bacteriology, and Pharmacology. The student who has completed this work will be prepared to enter directly upon the clinical work, that is to say, the work of the third and fourth years of the medical school. All of the work of the first two years of Rush Medical College is offered at the University only. Students taking this work at the University will matriculate and register as students of Rush Medical College and likewise as students of the University. There will be no extra fee for such registration at the College. Students are admitted to the medical course who comply with the requirements for admission to the Junior Colleges of the University of Chicago, corresponding to the requirements for admission to the Freshman year of an institution of equal rank, and have had, in addition, two years (eighteen Majors) of college work. This preparation should include a thorough course in Mathematics, in German or French, and in the sciences of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Attention is called to the fact that courses are offered in the Departments of Arts, Literature, and Science of the University, in all the branches of a liberal education, and a medical student may take work in these branches by attendance during additional Quarters or to a limited extent by extra work during his attendance upon the medical course. Students desiring to take work of this character should consult with the Dean of Medical Students. Students having completed not less than eighteen Majors of University work, corresponding to the Freshman and Sophomore years of a high-grade university or college, and having acquired a good knowledge of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, and a reading knowledge of French or German, will be allowed to elect their work in the medical branches, subject to the restrictions imposed and to the approval of the Dean. (See p. 113.) Students of this class who have not completed the work for the Bachelor's degree may apply their credits in medical courses as Senior College electives for a Bachelor's degree. (See pp. 108, 113, 114, 116.) Not only is the medical work elective for students who are thus prepared, but the courses are so arranged that their attention may be concentrated upon a single subject, or upon allied subjects. The teaching of the fundamental medical branches in an institution of general learning is believed to constitute a distinct step in advance in medical education. The student pursuing these studies in the atmosphere of an institution devoted to purely scientific work, under the instruction of men whose time is wholly devoted to teaching and investigation along their respective lines cannot but gain a broader and more thorough conception of these sciences. Such a training will not only afford a better preparation for the clinical courses of the medical college and for the practice of medicine and surgery, but will also enable the student to follow more easily in paths along which medical advances promise to be made, and to apply these new discoveries in his daily work. LABORATORIES, EQUIPMENT, AND LIBRARIES The medical instruction is given in the Anatomical, Physiological, and Zoological Laboratories, and in Kent Chemical Laboratory. For a description of these laboratories and their equipment, and for information concerning the General Library and the Departmental Libraries, see General Index of this Register. ADMISSION TO THE MEDICAL COURSE Students are admitted to the medical course either as (1) Medical Students, or (2) Undergraduate Students (candidates for a Bachelor's degree, S.B., A.B., or Ph.B.). (3) Graduates of the University of Chicago, or of other universities or colleges of good standing, are admitted to the medical course as medical students; they are allowed all the privileges of the members of the Graduate Schools of the University. (4) In addition to students in regular standing, provision is made for the admission to the University of undergraduate students not seeking degrees. Such students are known as Unclassified Students. They may register for medical subjects, but they are not candidates for the M.D. degree until they have fulfilled the requirements for admission. |
