Whether you ' re hunting a few credits just to fill in the required lab credits or whether you ' re a future Mayo surgeon, more than likely you can find suitable accommodations in the Biology depart- ment — anyway over 1,300 did this year. Almost any hour of the day or night you may hear Dr. Hoy ' s methodical lecture in the big amphitheater room of LeConte, or hear Dr. Penny talking down his pipestem concerning some of the intricacies of local fauna or flora. If you ' re serious enough, you may take a major in Biology, a double major in Biology or Chemistry or any one of the three-legged courses mapped out for pre-meds. Most of them now take their degree as DOGFISH AND TWO HOURS . ■ : ■

The University offers to proven candidates through its nine schools, and twenty-three depart- ments, a wide choice of courses and degrees — some twenty-three degrees and six certificates being in the curriculum. One may secure anything from a certificate in physical education, to the newly established (here) Ph.D. degree, depending completely upon the individual ' s initiative, in- terest, patience or real desire. All this and much more is available for the wide- awake student. No school allows more unencum- bered existence to its students, the feeling being that unwise restriction and forced choices only breed later downfalls, and a feeling that anything goes, if uncaught and unpunished. One may study much and gain the real goal of an education or one may frolic for a semester or two and join the hundreds who in the past have chosen the same route . . . out ahead of schedule without a degree or its important counterpart, an education. Here you may choose the course of well- rounded development and serious training of the mind, and you will find no more interested people in your efforts than the faculty, which through the SAMUEL C.

If you ' re in one of any of the other pre-class , pre-dental, nursing, or technician, you will find some of the most thorough and beneficial courses on the campus in the department which houses itself on the third floor of LeConte behind the myriads of showcases, color diagrams, and odors of formaldehyde.
