ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS, COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY. On motion of Miss Watson, the following statement of entrance requirements for the College of Dentistry was approved:

An applicant for admission to the College of Dentistry must be at least eighteen years of age. Women are admitted on the same conditions and under the same terms as men. For admission to the College of Dentistry a candidate must present a certificate of graduation from an accredited high school, or an equivalent; which equivalent is interpreted to mean fifteen (15) units of preparatory work in an accredited high school or academy or a state normal school. No "conditions" can be permitted; the full 15 units must be offered. The foregoing, requirement may be satisfied either (a) by certificate, or (b) by examination. (a) Entrance credits will be accepted by certificate from the following sources: (1) From high schools and academies in the State of Illinois which are accredited to the University of Illinois. (2) From the State normal schools of Illinois and other normal schools having equal requirements for graduation. (3) From schools accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. (4) From schools accredited to the State universities which are included in the membership of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. (5) From schools approved by the New England College Entrance Certificate Board. (b) Entrance credits may be made by examination: (1) In the examination conducted by the Registrar of the University of Illinois, at the University in Urbana in January, July, and September of each year. (2) In the examination conducted by the Registrar of the University of Illinois at the College of .Dentistry in September of each year. (3) In the examinations conducted in June of each year by the College Entrance Examination Board. (4) In the examination conducted by the Regents of the University of the state of New York/ For further information in regard to these examinations see the Annual Register of the University of Illinois, 1912-13, pages 79, 80, 85-87. Applications for admission coming from institutions of higher learning, whether candidates for the freshman class or for advanced standing, must present entrance credentials or pass entrance examinations as indicated above. The College of Dentistry will receive no student who is not present within ten days after the opening day of the session in each year, or in case of necessary delay by reason of illness, properly certified by the attending physician, within thirty days after the opening day. RESIGNATION OF T H E SECRETARY.

The secretary presented his resignation:

October 4, 1913. To the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois: I hereby submit my resignation as Secretary of the Board of Trustees, with the earnest request that this resignation be accepted a t this meeting. I beg leave to suggest that it be accepted to take effect at the close of the next regular meeting of the board, i. e., the quarterly meeting of December 9, 1913. This will allow for the appointment of a committee to nominate my successor and for his election on December 9. In this way there will be no interruption in the performance of the duties of the office. My reason for asking to be relieved of the secretaryship is that the registrarship as now constituted at the University of Illinois demands the full time and strength of one man. There is no other university at all comparable in size with the University of Illinois in which the registrar is the secretary of the trustees. There is, in fact, so far as I know, but one other comparable institution in which the registrarship itself is as highly centralized or has as much Work assigned to it.
