AIMS AND SCOPE The College of Literature and Arts includes those branches usually comprised in a department of philosophy and arts, with the exception of the natural sciences. The aim of the college is a double one : to furnish a liberal education, and to afford the largest opportunity for specialization in literary and philosophical subjects. It is believed that this double purpose can be best accomplished by a judicious combination of disciplinary and information studies, which, while so directing the work of the student as to secure the desired mental training, shall also allow him large liberty of choice both in his main lines of work and in subjects auxiliary thereto. In accordance with this general plan, it is provided that students may graduate either under the general course system or under the specialized course, or group, system. A general course is one in which less than three years' work in any one line is required for graduation, and in which no thesis is-required. A specialized, or group, course is one containing at least two years of major work in a single subject preceding the senior year, followed by an additional year of major work in that subject, and the writing of an acceptable thesis. No student may be enrolled in a specialized course without the permission of the head of the department in which he wishes to do his principal work, and each student who wishes to be so enrolled must specify the course he desires to enter not later than the beginning of his junior year.
