Before the close of the sophomore year, each student will be given a list of a dozen or more important books to read and digest during the last two summers of registration. In the course of the senior year, the department will test the student's knowledge of these books, by conferences, or examination, or other means yet to be decided on. * See footnote 1 on preceding page. * Six of the ten hours of English electives must be in courses restricted to advanced undergraduates.
