The object of this school is to impart such theoretical and practical knowledge of Chemistry as will enable the student to apply successfully the principles of the science to any of the related arts, and tofithim for the more difficult but not less attractive field of original research. Each student who takes a complete course in this School is expected, in connection with other studies, to work two hours daily in the laboratory, five days in the week, during four years, beginning with the second term of the first year. Students who pursue Chemistry only as apart of other courses, will find it to their advantage to work at least two consecutive hours daily during such time as their speciality may require.
