to include only such institutions as come within classes A and B as defined by the rules of this University.) "For admission to the four-year course as a regular student, an applicant must be matriculated and have 30 hours' credit in a college of this University; or its equivalent from another college or university,, to be determined in the same manner as provided for admission to the three-year course. "Students from other institutions who may fall short not to exceed five hours of credit by transfer may be admitted to the three-year curriculum as conditioned students; such conditions to he made up before the beginning of the student's second year in the college." The requirement proposed above for admission to the three-year curriculum does not differ in any material way from the present requirement for admission to the College of Law as it has been interpreted and administered, except in permitting conditions up to five hours in the case of students from other institutions. The requirement for admission to the four-year curriculum is, of course, new, this curriculum having been authorized by the Board of Trustees at the meeting of June 7, 1917. At the meeting af Jnne 4, 1917) the Senate voted also to recommend to the Board of Trustees that the following be substituted for the statement of electives in the College of Law op,en to students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, as given in the last paragraph on page 119 and the first two paragraphs, on page 120 of the "Annual Register" for 1916^17: "A student in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, who earns at least 30 hours in this, College, may take and count towards the A.B. degree not to exceed, 30. ho^rs of work in the College of Law, provided that not less than two courses amounting to at least five hours are taken per semester, under the advice; of the Dean of the College of Law as to the courses to be taken.
