CHOICE OF STUDIES. CHOICE OF STUDIES.

97

From the outset the University has permitted great freedom in the selection of studies. It is, however, necessarily required: that the student shall be thoroughly prepared to enter and to keep pace with the classes in the chosen studies, and that he shall take these studies in the terms in which they are taught. Candidates for a degree must take the course of study prescribed for that degree. But in the Colleges of Agriculture, Natural Science, and Literature and Science other University drawing will be accepted for an equivalent amount of free-hand drawing. Each student is expected to have three distinct studies, affording three class exercises each day. On special request, the Faculty may allow less or more. No change in studies may be made after the beginning of a term without permission of the Faculty. Due care will be taken to prevent, as far as possible, all abuse of the liberty of choice. Studants failing to pass satisfactory examinations in their chosen studies will not be permitted to remain and take other studies without a vote of the Faculty.

REQUIRED STUDIES.

To secure the diffusion of the sciences relating to the great industsies, the state legislature, in 1873, prescribed that each student should be taught some of those sciences. The Trustees accordingly require that each student shall take, each term, one study at least from the following list:

Agricultural Chemistry. Agricultural Engineering and Architecture. Analytical Mechanics. Anatomy and Physiology. Animal Husbandry. Architectural Drawing and Designing. Astronomy. Botany. Bridges. Chemistry. Dynamics. Electric Machinery. Elements of Agriculture. Elements of Horticulture, Entomology. Esthetics of Architecture. Estimates. Free-Hand Drawing. Geodesy. Geology. Graphical Statics. Heat Engines. History of Agriculture. History of Architecture. Hydraulic Engines and Wind Wheels. Hydraulics. Landscape Gardening. Logic. Machine Drawing. Masonry Construction. Mathematics.
