Assistant Professor SMITH and Mr. YOUNG. ADVANCED GENERAL BIOLOGY.—For those who have taken a year's work in either botany or zoology, a single term of general biology is offered and especially recommended. It is intended to review, systematize, extend, and unify the student's knowledge of the phenomena and laws of life and of the relations of plant and animal, of living and non-living matter, and of biology to the other sciences. It will be taught as a seminary subject, with occasional lectures and assigned readings. It is primarily a junior or senior study. / / . ; daily; 6 and 7; (5). Professors BURRILL and FORBES. Required: A major course in Botany or Zoology. BOTANY 1.

The course extends thro igh the year, but the work of each semester may be credited separately under the designations of 3a and 3b.
