SUGGESTIONS AS TO CHOICE OF COURSES Students wishing to take major courses in several natural science subjects, with the intention of graduating in natural science without a thesis, should take the required subjects of the freshman year together with zoology 2; may follow this in the second year with botany 1, German, physics, and military, each throughout the year; may select for the junior year mineralogy 1, to be followed by geology 1, bacteriology or elementary entomology, embryology, general biology, German, minor physiology, and rhetoric 2, finishing geology 1 in the fall term of the senior year, and completing their course by selecting studies amounting to eight elective credits from the remaining subjects open to them. Numerous variations of this course may readily be arranged to the same general effect. Those wishing to concentrate their major work in zoology only, should take courses 1, 4, and 5 in zoology, beginning with the second term of the freshman year; minor courses in physiology, physics, and botany, in the second year; mineralogy 1 and geology 4 in the third year; and anthropology 1, and thesis investigation during the senior year. For a zoological course with principal reference to entomology, zoology 2 may be taken instead of 1, and followed by courses 6 and 7, with the omission of course 4 from the above list. The student desiring to specialize in physiology should take zoology 3 and follow it with all the physiology offered, except course 4. His work may be otherwise like that suggested above for-the zoological specialist. A special course in botany may be made up on lines sim-
