tical economics, music and physical culture. The first-year

indicated by the names of the respective departments. The
diploma of the college will be conferred only upon those who
complete one or more courses in one or more of the depart-

CLASSIFICATION.
THE CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS who enter the college will
be determined by the entrance examinations conducted by the
faculty. Graduates of reputable high schools will be admitted
to the junior class at present without examination. Students
who lack proficiency in one or more subjects in any given class,
may, at the discretion of the faculty, be admitted to such class,
subject to the condition of making up back work.
ADVANCED STUDENTS who have had work elsewhere equivalent to
that required in any of the subjects of the courses of the college
will be given due credit for the same, thus enabling them to
complete a course in less time than is indicated above. Gradu-
ates of high schools should be able to complete the work in two
years.
OPPORTUNITY FOR SPECIAL COURSES, not leading to a diploma
of graduation, will be afforded to a limited number of students
who show ability to carry on the work they propose to under-
take. Those who satisfactorily complete such partial courses
will be given certificates of proficiency in the subjects covered.
