Incidental Expenses Incidental expenses vary according to the habits of the students and the amount of money at their command. It is the earnest wish of the faculty that all pupils, whether of large or limited means, cultivate habits of economy, and we earnestly beg our patrons to restrict personal expendi- tures, while their daughters are with us, to actual require- ments, which will be found very moderate, indeed. All pocket-money must be deposited in the students' office, and the pupils 'send to their parents or guardians monthly state- ments of their incidental expenses. We desire that these accounts be carefully examined by the parents, and that we be notified if there should be cause for dissatisfaction, or if the pupil seems disposed to expend more than the stipulated amount. No pupil will be allowed to overdraw her deposit. When parents wish to have their daughters sent home, they must give timely notice, settle all accounts, and supply means to defray expenses. Pupils are not allowed to have accounts in South Bend. Should it be necessary at any time for them to go to the city, they must be accompanied by a chaperon at student's expense. Dentistry, etc., must, as far as possible, be attended to before the opening of school, as all such matters divert the mind from the work to which students should come prepared to give their undivided attention. 20

Positively no money or other articles shall be furnished to any student by the Treasurer unless an equivalent 'sum has been placed in the office. Parents and guardians must see the reasonableness of this rule and should, therefore, either supply their daughters with all necessary articles of clothing, etc., or deposit in advance with the Treasurer funds sufficient to cover cost of same. All unnecessary damage to furniture or breakage in laboratories, will be charged to the student. All communications of advice, inquiry or business must be Sent to THE PRESIDENT ST.

Course of Studies The curriculum of studies provides for a thorough training in the various branches required for a liberal edu- cation, beginning with elementary work and passing by degrees to the studies of the advanced courses. It is a decided advantage that pupils entering the Pre- paratory Course at St. Mary's may, without' change of schools, pass on to graduation in the Academic and Col- legiate Courses. A continuous and systematic training in all that pertains to a well-rounded education is thus secured. The cramming process is avoided, and pupils are afforded the time and opportunity necessary for well-ordered mental, moral and physical development. PREPARATORY COURSE In this course pupils remain until they are well grounded in the essentials of English Grammar, Geography, Arithmetic, United States History, Civil Government, Phys- iology, Etymology, Composition and Letter Writing. Course of Studies, page 26. ACADEIVIIC COURSE . The Academic Course, corresponding to the standard high school course, embraces a period of four years, and furnishes a preparation for admission to the Collegiate Courses. Certificate from the.Academy admits to the State Universities. Graduates of High Schools that are fully accredited to the State Universities will be admitted without examination to the Freshman Year of any Course for which they are prepared, provided their records of class standing and laboratory work, which must be presented, are satisfac- tory. 21
