I40 UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS. systematic study of the differences, so far as they are of physiological import, between the anatomy of man and of the type mammal there studied; a more detailed study of the facts and methods of mammalian histology; and finally, with as much fullness as the time will permit, a study of the special physiology of man. In the laboratory work the topics are selected to illustrate so far aspossible the different methods of obtaining physiological data. Winter and spring terms, full study. Assistant Professor SUMMERS. Required: Chemistry 4; Zoology 3*. 2. Advanced Physiology.—The first term is devoted to a study of the physiology of foods, digestion, and excretion, illustrating the application of chemical principles and methods to physiological research. The second term is given to a study of the blood, the circulation, and the respiration. This involves principally the application of physical methods, and practice in the use of instruments of precision. The third term is occupied with a study of the muscular and nervous systems. Fall, winter, and spring terms, full study. Assistant Professor SUMMERS. Required: Physiology 1; Physics 1. 3. Investigation and Thesis.—An opportunity for original investigation, upon which may be founded the graduating thesis, is offered to students in their senior year. While the instructor will have a general supervision of this work, it is expected that the student will at all times take the initiative, seeking only such information and advice as he would ask of any co-worker in his department of science. Winter and spring terms, full study. Assistant Professor SUMMERS. Required: Physiology 1, 2. 4. Minor Course.—This course is planned for literary students and for students of natural science specializing in other lines. While some attention is paid to all the important processes of the body, especial emphasis is laid upon those facts that serve as a basis for practical hygiene. Fall term, full study. Assistant Professor SUMMERS. Required: Chemistry 1. POLITICAL SCIENCE. 1. Political Science.—This is a short course in comparative constitutional law and administration, based on the second volume of Bruges' Political Science and Constitutional Law. Spring term, full study. Professor KINLEY. *In 1894-95 a special course in general and vertebrate zoology will be given, which will take the place, so far as the requirement for Physiology 1 is concerned, of Zoology 3, for those students who have not had the latter.
