It will be generally necessary to follow the above, but other arrangements consistent with sequences of course may be made in special cases. DESCRIPTION OF DEPARTMENTS

CHEMISTRY

The chemical offerings include courses of instruction in general elementary, inorganic, organic, physical and theoretical chemistry, and several lines of qualitative and quantitative analysis. [See under Chemistry, in DESCRIPTION OF

COURSES.]

The first term is devoted to the consideration of the fundamental principles of chemistry, the purpose being to afford as thorough an introduction to chemical science as is practicable in the time allotted. In succeeding courses the work becomes more special in character, but the required chemical subjects constitute a backbone of scientific preparation which provides opportunity for a thorough grounding in the principles and laws of chemistry; while, by proper selection from the numerous electives, one may specialize along any of the lines of analytical or applied chemistry, or pharmacy, or may further develop his knowledge of pure chemistry. In order that an acquaintance with chemical literature may be had, and to keep pace with the advances in chemistry, students of the third and fourth years are required to take part in the chemical seminary in which the work con-
