In economic geology the manuals of Kemp and Tarr are used as texts. In paleontology Nicholson, Bernard, and Zittel are used for descriptions of the larger groups, Miller for general distribution, and the various state surveys for species. / . ; daily; 6 and 7; (5).

Professor ROLFE and Mr. HUBBARD.

Required: Mineralogy 1.

2. INVESTIGATIONS AND THESIS.—For students who select a geo-

logical thesis, guidance and facilities will be offered for individual investigations in the field and laboratory. / . and II.; daily; 3 and 4; (5 each semester). Professor ROLFE. Required: Geology 1.

3. GENERAL GEOLOGY, MINOR COURSE.—This course includes a

selection of such geological facts and theories as should be known to every intelligent person, with such discussion of them as the time will permit. The subjects treated will be fully illustrated. One hour each day will be devoted to laboratory work, and this time will be about equally1 divided between the study of minerals, rocks, and fossils. The instruction will be by texts and lectures, using Le Conte's Elements of Geology as the basis for the class-room work, and a specially prepared guide for the laboratory. / / . ; daily; 6 and 7; (5).

Professor ROLFE and Mr. HUBBARD.

NOTE.—Geology la, b, c. d may be taken, instead of the minor, by those who have had Mineralogy 1.
