UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE

REVISED COURSE OF STUDY ADOPTED AUGUST 16, 1899 Students desire instruction in agriculture with one of two definite objects in mind : 1. To secure a liberal education along agricultural lines through a course of study leading to graduation. 2. To take instruction in certain subjects for the sake of technical knowledge and skill without reference to graduation. To meet the needs of both classes of students the following courses are offered. Each subject is briefly outlined to show its general character, and is followed by a notation of the length of time and of the nature of preparation necessary for its pursuit. The liberal range of subjects affords wide elective privileges to those expecting to graduate and also permits the special student to follow out his chosen subjects at considerable length. Every subject is open to any student whose preparation is sufficient to enable him to pursue the study with profit. Subjects marked thus * require at least regular admission to the University or its equivalent.
