PRE-MED. Young Florence Nightingales follow the hrst bent of their fan- cies in this undergraduate medical school. If their ardor is not damp- ened by endless hours in the lab- oratory and they complete the course satisfactorily, then the privilege of entering any Class A Medical School is theirs, for this course has been approved by the American Medical Association. In addition to the regular pre- scribed subjects for the A.B. course, students are required to carry advanced courses in Chem- istry, Biology, Physics, and Math- ematics and possess a reading knowledge of French and German. All this and four years more en- titles the aspirant to dressing in white, perfumed with ether, and carrying one of those mysterious, little, black bags.

Spanish The degree of Bachelor of Arcs is conferred upon candidates pur- suing varied curricula. Those with the romantic or poetic spirit delve deeplv into English or other lan- guages, while more determined economists major History. Scientists, with a view to bet- tering humanity from the gene to the system, study Biology, Chem- istry, Physics, and Mathematics; and, social workers, with titanic ambitions to reform society, ana- lyze social cases, work in the set- tlement districts, and offer their efforts to the masses of the world. Add to a specialized pursuit of these courses, three years of sur- vey of Literature, and four of Religious and Philosophic Cours- es, the requirements for a white hound hood.

For those desirous of a com- mercial living, the Secretarial Department prepares amanuenses for all professional and business men and gives courses for those of pedagogical aspirations. A fanciful office replete with all essentials puts these embryo sec- retaries in the mood for coping with all the appendages of a busi- ness house. Secretarial students spend three years learning the gays and kays of Shorthand so that 160 word speed is a common thing among Regisites. Religion, Scripture, Logic, Philosophy, Psychology, Ethics, and English are prescribed courses; and Economics, Com- mercial Law, Accounts, and Bus- iness Organization are added to make candidates equipped to man- age the vicissitudes of business. At the conclusion, the degree con- ferred is a Bachelor of Science in Commerce.
