Examinations are held periodically during the session, by the Faculty. In addition to the periodical examinations above referred to, the Junior students are examined at the close of the term in all the branches taught, and if they obtain the requisite credits at this and at the other examinations, are admitted to the Senior class at the next term. Juniors who fail in more than two branches at the final examinations are required to remain another year in the Junior class. First-course students from other pharmaceutical colleges, who desire to enter the Senior class of this college, must produce sufficient evidence of their fitness; otherwise they will be required to pass the Junior examination, as a condition of admission. The Senior students are examined at the end of the session for the degree of Graduate in Pharmacy, in chemical synthesis and analysis, toxicology, botany, vegetable histology, materia medica, physiology, the chemical and microscopical characters of drugs, the uses and doses of drugs, theoretical and practical pharmacy, and the translation of recipes from Latin into English and from English into Latin. The Post-Graduate students are examined at the end of the term for the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy, in Analytical Chemistry, the Separation of Alkaloids and Active Principles, Histology of Medicinal Substances, and the Microscopical Examination of Drugs and Chemicals. They are also required to present a thesis showing original investigation in some of these lines. REG.-25 CONDITIONS OF GRADUATION. The degree of Graduate in Pharmacy is conferred upon students who complete the course of study satisfactorily, and comply with the conditions enumerated below. Candidates for the degree of Graduate in Pharmacy must be of good moral character; must have attained the age of twenty-one years; must have attended two full courses in each of the branches of this college, or one course (the Senior) in this, after a course in some other recognized pharmaceutical college; and must have had four years' experience in a pharmacy where prescriptions are compounded. No special examination will be held for candidates for the degree, but only an examination at the end of the regular course. Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy must have completed satisfactorily three terms in some college of pharmacy of good standing, the last term being in this college. Candidates must be recommended jointly by the Faculty and the Board of Directors to the Regents of the University of California, by whom the degree is conferred. CERTIFICATES OF PROFICIENCY. Certificates of proficiency will be issued to those students who have passed satisfactorily in all of the branches in which they were examined; also to special students who pass satisfactorily in their special subjects; also to those candidates who pass successfully in all branches, but are debarred from receiving their diplomas by lack of required experience, or by being under twenty-one years of age. No certificate of Proficiency in Pharmacy will be issued unless the student has satisfactorily passed in all the branches. No Certificate of Proficiency in any subject will be issued unless the applicant has attained as high a percentage of credits in such subject as is required in the general average. EXPENSES. *Entrance Examination, not refunded in any case... $ 5.00 Junior Course (all tuition fees included).. 100.00 100.00 Post-Graduate Course...... 100.00 Chemical Laboratory (when taken separately) 25.00 25.00 25.00 15.00 20.00 *Those who present satisfactory credentials do not pay this fee. Each student is required to deposit with the Dean the sum of fifteen dollars each term for the Breakage and Damage Fund. Five dollars of this amount will be retained for wear and tear, and the unexpended portion of the remainder will be refunded at the close of the session. The Fees must be paid to the Dean by each student, in person, in advance, and not later than thirty days from the opening of the term. Students who do not intend to pursue Pharmacy as a vocation are admitted to any of the courses they may desire to attend by paying the fee of the chair or chairs of instruction which they wish to take. BOARD AND LODGING. Good board and lodging can be obtained in San Francisco for from $16.00 to $30.00 a month. Single furnished rooms may be had, without board, for from $5.00 to $10.00 a month, and restaurants abound in which good meals may be had for from 15 cents to 40 cents each. EMPLOYMENT. Students frequently find temporary employment in retail drug stores, and in wholesale and manufacturing establishments. The remuneration is small, but many of the students prefer to do some practical work in pharmacy to supplement the instruction received in college. The Dean will register the names of students who desire situations, and all the officers of the college will use their influence to find employment for them. |
