RESERVE OFFICERS' TRAINING CORPS COURSES The courses in infantry, coast artillery, air service, and ordnance training are those prescribed by the War Department for corresponding units of the senior division of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps. The United States furnishes arms, equipment, uniforms, and some textbooks for the use of students belonging to such units. The University being responsible for textbooks and uniforms furnished by the United States requires the student enrolled in basic courses to deposit with the Comptroller $15, the cost of the textbooks and uniform issued him. (At the Branch of the College of Agriculture at Davis, this deposit is $20.) This deposit must be made before the student files his study-list; the deposit is refunded at the close of the academic year or upon the student's withdrawal, provided the student then returns in good condition all articles issued him. An amount necessary to replace articles not returned by the student will be retained by the Comptroller. Students who enroll in the advanced course in the Infantry, Coast Artillery and Air Service Units are required to deposit with the Comptroller $38 to cover the cost of uniform ($36) and textbooks ($2). At the end of the first year of the advanced course $30 is refunded and the uniform becomes the property of the student; on completing the second year the remaining $6 is refunded. The textbook deposit, less an amount necessary to replace articles not returned, will be refunded upon completion of the course. The courses in medico-military science and tactics are those prescribed for the Medical Corps Unit. The uniform and textbook deposit is not required of members of the Medical Corps and Ordnance Units. The primary object of establishing units of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps is to qualify students for appointment in the Officers' Reserve Corps of the United States Army. Students who complete the advanced course, and who participate in such summer camps as the Secretary of War may prescribe, are eligible upon graduation for appointment and commission by the President in the Officers' Reserve Corps, which is intended to furnish a great part of the commissioned personnel for the temporary forces which this nation will require in time of emergency. Students in the infantry, coast artillery and air service units who complete the advanced course are also eligible to be commissioned by the Governor of the State of California in the University Cadets. All courses are given at Berkeley, except as otherwise indicated. These courses are open only to able-bodied male students who are citizens of the United States.

Pending action on his petition the student will enroll in the courses prescribed for his year and enter upon the work of such courses.
