The James Rosenberg Memorial Scholarship.-For 1924-25, $600. In 1919 the Regents of the University of California accepted the gift of a fund from Linda and Joseph Rosenberg for the establishment of the James Rosenberg Memorial Scholarship, in memory of their son, James Rosenberg, which shall be awarded annually, beginning in 1919, for a period of twenty years to a student in graduate status in the Department of Agriculture, who in the judgment of that department and the President of the University is thoroughly qualified to carry on a line of research that will contribute to the welfare of the farmers of the State of California. The income from the fund establishing this scholarship over and above the $600 allowed for the scholarship is to be permitted to accumulate until the sum of $2500 is reached. This sum is then to constitute an endowment of an annual James Rosenberg Memorial Scholarship.

The Horatio Stebbins Scholarship.-For 1924-25, $450. With a fund of $4000 donated to the Regents of the University of California by an anonymous donor there has been established the Horatio Stebbins Scholarship. This scholarship is open only to women students at the University of California. While it is primarily intended only for undergraduate students it may be awarded to graduate students.

The Bertha Henicke Taussig Memorial Scholarship.-For 1924–25, $1000. With funds received from the trustees of the late Hugo A. Taussig there has been established by the Regents of the University of California the Bertha Henicke Taussig Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship is open to women students in art, architecture, or literature. In the discretion of the President of the University the scholarship may be awarded either as a resident scholarship or as a traveling scholarship. For the year 1924-25 this scholarship will be a traveling scholarship.

The University Fellowships.—For 1924–25, ten at $600 each. For several years the Regents of the University of California have appropriated, from the general funds of the University, amounts sufficient to maintain several University Fellowships. For the year 1924-25 there will be ten such fellowships at $600. These fellowships are open to graduate students only, who have given evidence of ability to carry on research in some one or more of the academic departments of the University. They are not open to graduate students in the professional curricula of the University who are not engaged in research work.

The Mary J. Watson Scholarship.-For 1924-25, $125. With a gift received from Dr. Mary J. Watson the Regents of the University of California have established the Mary J. Watson Scholarship Fund. The income from this fund is to be awarded as a scholarship to a student who comes from the City of Sacramento and is receiving instruction in homeopathy in the University of California Medical School.

The Whiting Fellowships.—For 1924-25, two at $750 each. A bequest of $20,000, now amounting to $25,000, was made to the University in 1895

by the will of Harold Whiting, formerly Associate Professor of Physics in the University of California. With this fund the Regents of the University of California have established the Whiting Fellowship Fund. The net income from this sum is expended under the joint direction of the President and the Professor in charge of the Department of Physics of the University. Since 1897 the income has been used annually with some exceptions to maintain one or more fellowships of the annual value of $750 each. The Whiting Fellows have usually studied at Berkeley but in some instances study abroad may be permitted.

C. Open only to Graduate and Undergraduate Students from Utah:

The Willard D. Thompson Memorial Scholarships.—For 1924–25, five at $600 each. Under the will of the late Jennie D. Thompson the Regents of the University of California received a bequest which was established as an endowment fund known as the Willard D. Thompson Memorial Fund. The purpose of this fund is to provide an income for the maintenance of scholarships for the higher education at this University of worthy young men and women, residents of Utah, who shall have completed at least a four years' course at some high school of recognized standing. Of the five scholarships provided for the year 1924-25 some will be awarded to graduate students.

D. Honorary Traveling Fellowships:

Honorary traveling fellowships may be awarded at any time to distinguished graduate students in any department. Such honorary traveling fellowships do not carry any stipend but entitle the holder to official credentials from the University which may be of assistance in the pursuit of studies and special inquiries in other states and in foreign lands. Applications should be addressed to the Dean of the Graduate Division.

E. Alumni Association Scholarships:

The San Francisco Alumni Assocations of Harvard and Yale Universities, of Radcliffe College, and of other institutions maintain scholarships at their Alma Maters for California students. Applications for one of these scholarships should be addressed directly to the proper alumni association.

The holder of a Native Sons Fellowship in Pacific Coast History, a Whiting Fellowship in Physics, the Martin Kellogg Fellowship in Astronomy, the Bertha Henicke Taussig Memorial Scholarship, the Professor F. V. Paget Scholarship, or the LeConte Memorial Fellowship may be appointed to study at the University of California, or at any other university, as may be determined by the committee in charge of the appointment.

Awards of graduate scholarships and fellowships, excepting the Pixley, Heller, Sanborn, and Watson, are made solely for attested merit in scholarship and upon demonstrated ability to do graduate or research work, and not upon the basis of financial need. Applications should be accompanied wherever possible by exhibits of work published or under way, and by full information regarding the academic record set forth upon the application blank. Letters of recommendation from instructors in support of the application should be addressed to the Dean of the Graduate Division, and preferably should not accompany the candidate's application.

F. Teaching Fellowships or Assistantships:

Teaching Fellowships or Assistantships will be available in many departments, each yielding from $600 to $900 per annum. Appointees devote about one-half of their time to teaching duties and the rest of their time to graduate work. Applications for these appointments should be addressed to the President of the University, through the head of the department concerned.

STATEMENT OF CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION, CANDIDACY, AND DEGREES IN THE GRADUATE DIVISION

GRADUATE COURSES

Advanced instruction, leading to certificates and to the several degrees of Master of Science, Master of Arts, Graduate in Architecture, Doctor of Education, Graduate in Public Health, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, Metallurgical Engineer, Mining Engineer, Juris Doctor, Doctor of Medicine, and Doctor of Philosophy, is offered. by the University of California to graduates of any recognized college or university.

A graduate course is a highly advanced course in a field of study that has been intensively pursued in the upper division requiring an attitude of critical analysis or of research on the part of instructors and students, or an advanced specialized course which normally should not be included in an undergraduate major. Graduate courses may be conducted: (1) as lecture courses for the presentation of subjects requiring organization by the instructor of the material from original sources, or (2) as seminars for the critical study of an organized field of knowledge through reports presented by students or instructors, or (3) as research by individual students under the direction of instructors.

Although graduate work is designated as course work and as in the case of lower division and upper division courses credit values are assigned on its completion it should be recognized that its main purpose is not so much to impart information as to promote mastery of a subject through the student's initiative and to develop a spirit of originality and independence in research under the guidance of instructors. The accumulation of the necessary credits and the satisfaction of prescribed residence may therefore not suffice to meet the requirements for higher academic degrees, if the candidate in the judgment of his instructors or of his sub-committee has not attained a satisfactory scholarly background in his chosen field or fails to prove his ability for research. For this reason promising graduate students are accorded considerable liberty in the pursuit of their work in so far as enrollment in courses is considered, provided however the minimum enrollment to establish residence is met. counteract the prevailing tendency for the accumulation of credits by sacrificing thoroughness in scholarship and high attainment which can be accomplished only through intensive application, the University restricts the number of units in which a student may enroll. Graduate

To

students in the regular sessions taking only upper division courses are limited to a programme of 16 units. Graduate students taking only graduate courses are limited to a programme of 12 units. Graduate students taking a programme of upper division and graduate courses are limited to a total made up in the proper proportion of 12 and 16, e.g., 6 graduate and 8 upper division = 14. Teaching fellows and assistants and others employed approximately on half time are limited to two thirds of the foregoing totals. Graduate students engaged on full time in other occupations are limited to 4 units of graduate or 6 units of upper division courses.

An excess of 1 unit will be allowed provided the study-list contains no 1-unit courses, and an excess of not more than 3 units if the excess is due to lower division work.

Study-lists exceeding the foregoing limits will not be accepted but may be accompanied, without prejudice, by the usual "Petition for Change in Study-List." In all cases the petition should fully state the reasons for the proposed exception. Such petitions may be filed at any date prior to a final date announced each semester by the Recorder of the Faculties.

Courses in the 200 series should be chosen only by prospective candidates for a master's degree (after the completion of an upper division major of at least 12 units of fundamental advanced upper division work) and by candidates for a doctor's degree. Graduate courses completed before attaining a bachelor's degree will not be accepted in partial fulfillment of minimum requirements in the 200 series for a master's degree. Many upper division courses serve the purpose of extending and confirming the scholarly background of a graduate student in his chosen field and these should be pursued before enrollment in graduate courses. The fact that a student holds a bachelor's degree does not in itself entitle him to enroll in 200 courses; neither is a graduate student required to confine the selection of courses to the 200 series.

As a condition for enrollment in a graduate course the student must submit to the instructor in charge of the course satisfactory evidence of preparation for the work proposed; adequate preparation will consist normally of the completion of at least 12 units of upper division work basic to the subject of the graduate course, irrespective of the department in which such basic work may have been completed.

The admission of undergraduates to graduate courses is limited to seniors who have an average scholarship grade of B in the basic courses; the study-lists limits in such cases are the limits imposed by the rules of the Graduate Division. (See above.)

Courses in the 300 and 400 series are regarded as non-academic or vocational courses, especially designed to meet the requirements for certificates, and as such they do not fall in the class of academic, upper
