PROGRAMS OF STUDY PUBLISHED

The College has printed for distribution among the undergraduates a twenty-page pamphlet outlining some sixteen different courses of study. The title of the pamphlet, "Programs of Study Suggested for the Assistance of Undergraduates Planning to Teach in Secondary Schools, or to Pursue the Study of Divinity, Law, Medicine, Engineering, or Business Administration", defines its scope. All too frequently the student who is intending to enter professional work or to do graduate study, led away by the allurements of the very free elective system in vogue, discovers too late that he has omitted some necessary course from his preparation. This pamphlet, which is the result of long and careful investigation by a committee of the faculty appointed for that purpose, should prove of great assistance to the undergraduate who desires to fit himself for a particular vocation.

These programs are intended to be advisory only and not to hamper unduly the student's free choice of electives. Moreover, they are very elastic; they do not list courses to the full number of the student's available hours, but leave him free to supplement his work along whatever lines he desires. They further indicate, by a careful grouping, three grades within the studies advised: first, courses in the subject in which the student plans to specialize and other courses with direct bearing upon this subject; second, courses of secondary bearing; and third, courses of indirect bearing or cultural courses.
