The courses offered by the department of Greek fall into two classes: (a) Those in which a knowledge of the Greek language is required, including the course for beginners in Greek (A-B); (b) those for which a knowledge of Greek is not necessary. The latter, in the year 1915-16, are: 46, Greek Life from the Monuments; 49, Centers of Greek Life; 141, Greek Epic; 150, Life and Letters in the Seventh and Sixth Centuries before Christ; 155, Greek Drama.

Teacher's Certificates.-Students will be recommended for teacher's certificates who have completed with credit 24 units of Greek chosen from those courses in which a knowledge of the language is required. Course 3A-3B must be included in this number, but courses A-B, C-D, and matriculation subjects 8 and 9 may not be so included.

Students who are preparing for major work in Greek will find it to their advantage to acquire a reading knowledge of French and German, and to take as much work in Latin and ancient history as may be possible.
