DEGREES

Every undergraduate student who intends to become a candidate for a degree must file with the Recorder of the Faculties a detailed schedule of studies offered for the degree sought. This schedule must be filed by regular students at least six calendar months, by all other students at least one full academic year, before the date proposed for graduation, and must be approved by the committee on graduation of the college in which the student is enrolled.

Of the one hundred and twenty-four (or more) units required for the bachelor's degree, at least twenty-four units must have been completed at this University in resident courses of instruction taken during the final or senior year.

Courses not required by the curriculum for graduation may be dropped from the record of any student on formal petition to the Faculty concerned.

All the graduates of any one calendar year-January 1 to December 31-shall be ranked as belonging to the so-called class of that year.

RESIDENCE

Residence at the University is residence in its vicinity and attendance upon such of its exercises as are appointed for the student. In this sense, residence at Mount Hamilton is residence at the University for such students as have been appointed to work at the Lick Observatory, residence at La Jolla is residence at the University for such students as have been appointed to work in the Marine Biological Laboratory, and residence at Davis is residence for such students as have been appointed to work at the University Farm. In the graduate school, residence at any place, or in any field, which may be designated by the proper faculty as suitable for the work of a candidate for one of the advanced degrees, is regarded as residence at the University.

GENERAL INFORMATION

DEANS OF THE COLLEGES

The duties of the Deans of the several colleges at Berkeley are as follows:

1. To issue excuses for brief absence to students enrolled in their respective colleges in all cases in which the absence shall exceed one day. For single absences instructors shall have power to excuse.

2. To answer inquiries from students of their respective colleges, or from their parents or guardians, as to the rules and regulations of the

University; and to give information or explanation to students and others who may be in doubt as to the requirements or methods of procedure.

3. To act as advisors of students in their respective colleges, or to designate advisors for them from their respective faculties.

THE DEAN OF THE UNDERGRADUATE DIVISION

The Dean of the Undergraduate Division assists the President of the University and the faculties of the academic colleges in matters pertaining to the general and personal interests of undergraduates.

THE DEAN OF WOMEN

The Dean of Women assists the President of the University and the faculties of the academic colleges in matters pertaining to the general and personal interests of the women students of the University.

LIVING ACCOMMODATIONS

The Cost of Board and Lodging (1) in boarding houses in or near Berkeley is $35 to $50 a month; (2) in fraternities and clubs from $35 to $45 a month. (3) For students living in housekeeping rooms and "boarding themselves" the expenses may be reduced as low as $20 to $25 a month, but this plan of living is not generally recommended. (4) The hours of recitation are such that students may commute from their homes in Oakland and San Frnacisco. (5) Families or groups of mature students who wish to rent furnished houses or apartments should apply to the local real estate agents. Rents near the campus for housing eight or more persons range from $65 up, unfurnished. A two-room furnished apartment, with bath and kitchenette, janitor service, heat and house laundry rents from $50 up. (A list of real estate agents will be supplied on request.)

The University has no dormitories. Lists of boarding places approved by the University authorities are published at the opening of every session, one list for men and another for women. No freshman woman is permitted to complete her registration unless her boarding place is first approved by the Dean of Women.

Lists of approved boarding places and further advice concerning living accommodations may be obtained at the office of the Dean of Women, 205 California Hall, and at the office of the Dean of the Undergraduate Division, 207 California Hall.

EMPLOYMENT

Opportunities for Self-Support.-Men students desiring employment should apply for information at the Employment Bureau, room 103, California Hall.

The Employment Bureau acts only as an agent for the purpose of bringing together employers and students desiring work. It does not undertake to make arrangements with respect to remuneration.

Women students desiring employment should apply at the office of the Dean of Women, 205 California Hall, 9 a.m.-12 m. daily. Board and lodging can often be obtained in exchange for three or four hours of household work daily. Opportunities also exist for obtaining employment, on an hourly basis, in the following fields: typewriting and stenography, clerical work, tutoring, telephone service, housework, care of children, general manual labor, etc. A student qualified to do draughting,computing and other technical work can occasionally find employment on a more remunerative basis than in these fields.

Self-supporting students are respected. With reasonable diligence a student can devote from twelve to twenty-five hours per week to outside work without seriously interfering with college work of from twelve to sixteen units (involving thirty-six to forty-eight hours per week). It should always be borne in mind, however, by students seeking employment that not every kind nor every amount of outside work is entirely compatible with the student's main purpose at the University, namely, his education. Only in rare instances can a student be entirely selfsupporting.

The Young Men's Christian Association acts as a bureau of information concerning boarding places and opportunities for remunerative employment.

Applicants for employment in teaching or tutoring should apply at the office of the Appointment Secretary, 102 California Hall. These agencies, however, can do little for students who are not actually on the ground to negotiate for themselves. It is usually so difficult for a stranger to secure remunerative employment from the start that, in general, no one should come to Berkeley expecting to become selfsupporting through the university course, without having on hand at the beginning sufficient funds to cover the expenses of the first half-year.

EXPENSES OF STUDENTS

For cost of board and lodging, see above.

Tuition in the academic colleges at Berkeley and tuition at the Lick Observatory is free to residents of the state. Non-residents of California are charged a tuition fee of ten dollars each half-year. Tuition in the Medical School and in the College of Dentistry, both for residents and

non-residents, is $150 a year. Students in Public Health, Curricula A and B, are subject to a fee of $150 for the year spent in the Medical School; students in Curriculum C are subject to the fee of $75 during the halfyear in the Medical School (second half-year of the fifth year). The following incidental expenses are to be met:

Gymnasium and Infirmary Fees.-The gymnasium fee is $2 per halfyear, and the infirmary fee is $3 per half-year; both are payable by every student, graduate or undergraduate, before his study-card is filed. These fees entitle students to gymnasium and hospital privileges, and are not remitted, in whole or in part, for those who may not desire to make use of these privileges. Gymnasium privileges comprise, besides the use of the gymnasium, tennis courts, swimming pool, baths, lockers, washrooms, etc. The infirmary fee entitles students, in case of illness, to hospital care (cost of surgical operations not included) or dispensary treatment. Onehalf of the amount of these fees is returned to students who leave the University during the first half-year before September 1, or during the second half-year before February 1.

A law library fee of $12.50 per half-year is payable at the time of registration by every student registering in more than one professional course in law.

Laboratory Fees. In the laboratories a charge is made for materials actually used. This charge, for students in the elementary laboratories, amounts to from $5 to $30 per annum.

Military Uniforms.-Every able-bodied male undergraduate in freshman or sophomore standing is required to take military exercise in the University. The student is required to deposit with the Comptroller immediately after admission a sum sufficient to cover the cost of the uniform (about $28). This deposit is refunded when the uniform is returned in good condition without loss of any of its parts.

Other expenses are: Gymnasium outfit for men, about $4; for women, about $8; books and stationery, from $15 to $25 per annum. All students are eligible to membership in the Associated Students of the University of California. The cost of a membership card is about $5 per year. The card entitles the holder to participation in the affairs of the Associated Students; a free subscription to the Daily Californian; free admission to all athletic contests held on the campus under the jurisdiction of the Associated Students with the exception of final intercollegiate contests, and membership in the Associated Students' Store with the privilege of rebates on all purchases.

The ordinary yearly expenses of a student in the academic departments, including personal expenses, would probably be at least $650.
