204 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF COURSES 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 as possible, the different methods of obtaining physiological data. Winter and spring terms, full study. Associate 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 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 general physiology of muscle, and the special anatomy and physiology of the ner- vous system. Fall, winter, and spring terms, full study. Associate 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 has 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. Associate 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, special emphasis is laid upon those facts that serve as a basis for practical hygiene. Fall term, full study. Associate Professor SUMMERS. Required: Chemistry 1. POLITICAL SCIENCE 1. POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS.—Comparative study of modern political systems, their historical development and practical operation.
