Miscellaneous Information RULES FOR UNDERGRADUATES The rules governing the conduct and management of undergraduate students arc published by the University and may be had at the time of registration or by asking for a copy at any of the University offices. Students will do well to familiarize themselves with these rules. MILITARY DRILL The University being one of the "Land Grant'' colleges is required to give regular instruction in Military Science. All able bodied male students under twenty-live years of age and citizens of the United States must take Military drill during their freshman and sophomore years. Students twenty-five years of age when they enter the University, students who are not citizens of the United States, those who enter with junior standing, and those physically unfit, are excused from this requirement. All other students must at the time of registration make a deposit of $16.20 for the uniform of cadet gray required, and register for the course in Military. Students not feeling able to buy a new uniform will find opportunity to pick up second hand uniforms in good condition. These must be approved by the Military office before they can be received, and it is usually well for the new student not to pay too generous a price. During the early history of the University students were required to drill during their entire connection with the instit ion, from the time they entered the academy until ti end I the enior year.
