7. Thesis Investigation.—Candidates for graduation in the College of Science who select a zoological subject as a thesis are required to spend at least two hours a day for the winter and spring terms of their senior year in making an independent investigation of some selected zoological subject. While this work is done under the general supervision of an instructor, it is in its methods and responsibilities essentially original work. Winter and spring terms, full

study. Professor FORBES.

Required: Zoology 1, 2 and 4; or 3 and 5. 8. General Zoology, Minor Course.—For the benefit of students of natural science specializing in some other direction, as well as for literary students desiring some general knowledge of zoology, a course of a single term is offered which contains enough laboratory and descriptive work to give a practical idea of the method of zoological science, and a sufficient number of lectures, with study of text, to cover the general subject in a cursory manner. Principal attention is paid to the Protozoa, to insects, and to birds. Winter term, full study. Mr. SMITH.
