The fees are:-For matriculation, five dollars; for instruction, for the first three years, two hundred dollars for each year (if in two payments, at the first, one hundred and twenty dollars; at the second, eighty dollars); for a half-year alone, one hundred and twenty dollars; for the full year, to all students entitled to be classified as fourth-year students and who have been regular members of the School for three full years, one hundred dollars (if in two payments, at the first, sixty dollars; at the second, forty dollars); for graduation, thirty dollars.* During the first year there are the following additional expenses: two dollars for each of the three parts required for dissection; two dollars for laboratory materials in Histology; three dollars for physiological material; and a maximum of ten dollars a year for chemical material, in addition to the charge for breakage of glass apparatus. Students are required to deposit with the Bursar† six dollars to cover Anatomy charges, two dollars for Histology, and twenty dollars for Chemistry and Physiology. The balances of these deposits are returnable at the end of the year. In the fourth year a charge of three dollars is made for material used in the course in Operative Surgery. A deposit of two dollars with the Dean will entitle a student to the use of a locker in the School building. A student who wishes to rent a microscope of the School can do so upon payment of three to six dollars a half-year.

Not later than October 10 in each academic year, any student may pay to the Bursar the sum of four dollars for the maintenance of the Stillman Infirmary; and, on the order of a physician, every student who has taken advantage of this opportunity will be given, in case of sickness, in return for the fee, a bed in a ward, board, and ordinary nursing for a period not exceeding two weeks in any one academic year.

Payment of Fees.

Each first-year student is required to pay to the Bursar punctually at the beginning of the academic year, without the presentation of a bill, the sum of one hundred and fifty-three dollars; each student entitled to be classified as a fourth-year student, who has been a regular member of the School for three full years, is required to pay to the Bursar, in like manner, the sum of sixty dollars. or sixty-three dollars, if he takes the course in Operative Surgery; and all other students are required to pay, in the same manner, the sum of one hundred and twenty dollars. The remainder of the tuition fee forty dollars for each student entitled to be classified as a fourth-year student who paid sixty dollars for the first * Students entering the School after the academic year 1902-03 shall pay a fee of $200 for the fourth year and be exempt from a graduation fee.

The Bursar's office is in Dane Hall, Harvard Sq., Cambridge. Hours 9-1.

half-year, and eighty dollars each for all other students, must be paid to the Bursar on or before January 31. The graduation fee must be paid at least one day before Commencement, or, in the case of those who take the degree in the middle of the year, at least one day before the day upon which the Corporation is to meet for the purpose of voting the degrees. No degree can be conferred until all dues to the University have been discharged. Each student whose dues remain unpaid on the day fixed for their payment is required at once to cease attending lectures and using laboratories or making use of any other privileges as a student until his financial relations with the University have been arranged satisfactorily to the Bursar. Failure to comply with this rule is deemed cause for final separation from the University.

Every student is required to file with the Bursar on his entrance to the School a bond of fifty dollars, executed by two sufficient bondsmen (one of whom must be a citizen of the United States), or to deposit fifty dollars in money, to cover the loss or injury of any property belonging to the University, or for which it is responsible. Blank forms of bonds may be obtained from the Secretary of the Faculty or from the Bursar. No officer or student of the University is accepted as a bondsman. Students will be held responsible for the payment of fees until they have notified the Dean, in writing, of their intention to withdraw from the School.

Whenever a student is obliged to withdraw from the School before the last four weeks of a half-year for no misdemeanor, but for good and sufficient reason, to be determined in all cases by the Administrative Board, it shall be recommended that he be entitled to a remission of three-fourths of the amount due for that portion of the time during which he receives no instruction. This remission will date from the reception by the Dean of a written notice of the student's withdrawal from the School. No degree will be conferred till all dues to the School are discharged. The student's general expenses may be reduced, in accordance with his means, to the standard which prevails in other cities. A list of boarding places at various prices can be obtained at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association, corner of Berkeley and Boylston Streets, and the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Union, No. 48 Boylston Street, Boston.

A special pamphlet, containing many important details concerning the School, is published each year, and may be had on application to the Dean of the School, or at the Publication Office, No. 2 University Hall, Cambridge.

For any information about the School, not contained in the Catalogue or special pamphlet, address Dr. WILLIAM L. RICHARDSON, Dean, Harvard Medical School, No. 688 Boylston Street, Boston, Mass.

OFFICE HOURS OF THE DEAN, TUESDAY AND FRIDAY, 12.15 тo 1 P.M.; OF THE SECRETARY, MONDAY AND THURSDAY, 12 to 1 p.m.

THE DENTAL SCHOOL.

The Harvard Dental School was instituted by vote of the President and Fellows of Harvard College, July 17, 1867. Dr. NATHAN COOLEY KEEP had in 1865, in his annual address before the Massachusetts Dental Society, of which he was then President, suggested the need of a Dental School in connection with Harvard University; and the movement which resulted in the establishment of the School thus took its beginning. The first session of the School opened on the first Wednesday in November, 1867, and continued until the following March. The first examination of candidates for the degree of the School was held March 6, 1869.

The School is now established in convenient quarters, formerly occupied by the Medical School, in North Grove Street, Boston.

Instruction in this School is given throughout the academic year, by lectures, recitations, clinical teaching, and practical exercises, uniformly distributed. An examination for admission was first required in 1885-86. The programme of instruction is progressive, and occupies three years, its extension to three years having taken place in 1890.

The studies of the first year are pursued in connection with the classes in the Harvard Medical School, the student receiving instruction by the same professors at the same time and place with the medical students, and at the end of the year passing with them the examinations.

The degree of DOCTOR OF Dental Medicine is given, on recommendation by the Faculty of Medicine, on the completion of the three years' course. The degree is given in two grades (see p. 648).

It is the object of the Faculty to present a complete course of instruction in the theory and practice of Dentistry; and for this purpose a wellappointed laboratory and infirmary are provided, and such arrangements made as insure an ample supply of patients. Clinical instruction is given by the professors and other instructors; and, under the direction of demonstrators, patients are assigned to the students, insuring to all opportunity of operating at the chair, and becoming by actual practice familiar with all the operations demanded of the dentist.

The Infirmary remains open, and clinical instructors and a demonstrator are in attendance, daily, throughout the academic year, offering to students excellent facilities for acquiring practical knowledge and manipulative dexterity.

Students have access to the hospitals of the city, and to the dissectingroom and museum of the Medical School. Students in regular standing in any one department of the University are admitted free to the instruction and the examinations given in any other department, with the exception of

exercises carried on in the special laboratories. But no student whose tuition fee for the year amounts to less than $150 is admitted to exercises given in any department other than that in which he is enrolled, except by special permission of the Dean of the department in which the instruction is given, after being duly accredited thereto by the Dean of the department of which the student is a member.

ADMISSION TO THE DENTAL SCHOOL.

All candidates for admission holding a degree in letters, science, or medicine, from a recognized college or scientific school, or who have passed an examination for admission to Harvard College or to any other reputable college of letters or to the Lawrence Scientific School, or furnish evidence of having had equivalent training, are admitted without examination. All other candidates must pass an examination.

All candidates, whether presenting a degree or not, are required to satisfy the Faculty that they have had a course in Theoretical and Descriptive (Inorganic) Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis sufficient to fit them to pursue the courses in Chemistry given at the School, or, failing in this, to pass an examination in General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis. Students who are unable to fulfil either of these requirements may enter conditioned in Chemistry. An opportunity for making up this condition will be furnished during the first half of the first year.

*

A deposit of five dollars will be required to meet charges for supplies and broken apparatus. Fee, $20, payable in advance.

*The summer course in General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis given in July at the Dental School is adapted to students about to enter this School. A deposit of five dollars is required to meet charges for supplies and broken apparatus. Fee, $25, payable in advance.

The entrance and first-year examinations will be allowed to foreign students who have passed equivalent examinations abroad, upon presentation of proper certificates from the examining boards vouching for the facts.

A certificate of having passed the examination for admission will admit a person to this school only as long as the entrance requirements remain the same.

Students who have had a preliminary training equivalent to the requirements for admission to this School, and who began their professional studies in other recognized Dental or Medical Schools, may be admitted to advanced standing; but all persons who apply for admission to the advanced classes must furnish a satisfactory certificate of time spent in dental or medical studies, and must pass examinations in the branches already pursued by the class to which they seek admittance, or furnish evidence of having passed equivalent examinations.

Graduates of recognized dental schools and reputable practitioners of dentistry who have never received a degree will be admitted without examination to the courses in Operative and Mechanical Dentistry, but attendance on such courses does not entitle a student to examination for the degree. A certificate of attendance will be furnished when desired.

EXAMINATIONS FOR ADMISSION.

Candidates for admission to the Dental School will take the examinations at the times and places designated for the examinations for admission to Harvard College and the Lawrence Scientific School (see pp. 347-349).

GENERAL REGULATIONS.

Registration Blanks.

Any one expecting to take admission examinations should register for such examinations on a form which may be obtained from the Dean of the Harvard Dental School. The Registration Blanks of all candidates who wish to take examinations in June should be properly filled and in the hands of the Dean by June 10; those of candidates who wish to take examinations in September, by September 10.

Good English.

Clear and idiomatic English is expected in all examination papers and note-books written by candidates for admission. Teachers are requested to insist on good English, not only in translations, but in every exercise in which the pupil has occasion to write or to speak English.
