FINAL EXAMINATIONS IN MATHEMATICS All candidates for a bachelor's degree whose major subject is mathematics will be expected to pass a general examination in that subject in lieu of the examinations of the special courses of their final half-year. The examination will be partly written and partly oral, and will include the following subjects: 1. Geometry of the plane and of space, both analytic and projective. 2. The differential and integral calculus, including the elements of differential equations. 3. Algebra: theory of algebraic equations. Students who wish to offer mathematics as a major subject must obtain permission from the department. They should elect courses 5, 6, 8, and 9 in the lower division, and must include courses 109, 111, 112, 114, and 119. Physics 105 may be included. The department will recommend for honors at graduation students whose work in the upper division courses and in the final examination has been of distinguished excellence. In residence first half-year only; 2, second half-year only. Teacher's Recommendation.-Candidates for the teacher's recommendation are strongly recommended to elect courses 101A-101B, 102A-102B, or course 218A-218B. Course 6 will be required of all candidates for the certificate. The department will exact a practical test of the candidate's ability to present a clear and interesting exposition of subjects taught in the high school. Candidates who have not already passed the final examination in mathematics described above must pass that examination before being recommended for the teacher's certificate, unless they have passed with at least second grade courses 101A-101B, 102A-102B. The University library contains an excellent collection of standard and current works in all branches of mathematics, including complete sets of nearly all the mathematical periodicals and the publications of learned societies. The department has also a good collection of geometrical models. LOWER DIVISION COURSES B. Solid and Spherical Geometry. Assistant Professor McDONALD. 2 hrs, either half-year. Tu Th, 9.
