PREPARATORY SCHOOL By years, the work is as follows:

First Year

Preparatory Latin Book, Viri Romae, Arrowsmith and Whicher's Latin Readings.

Second Year

Caesar, Sallust, Cicero

Third Year

Cicero, Vergil.

PHYSICS

This study is so presented as to cultivate habits of careful observation, and to develop in the student the ability to reach general conclusions inductively by means of exact experiment. In all laboratory work the student is required to keep a notebook containing a complete record of experiments performed. The work is begun in the winter term. PHYSIOLOGY In this subject the book used is illustrated by the use of charts, skeleton, and manikin, and by a series of laboratory experiments.

ZOOLOGY

Through the study of typical animals the subject is so presented as to lead the student to a knowledge of methods of scientific classification in the natural sciences, and to prepare for the more advanced work of the University.

REGULATIONS Reports regarding all non-resident and minor students (and, upon request, regarding any others) are sent to parents or guardians as- soon as students are settled in their work, and reports regarding all students are sent at the close of each term. The calendar of the Preparatory School is the same as that of the University. For information concerning fees and expenses, see page
