Show o. o PREPARATORY AmonS Among tile the the new new pl plans ns nsf f for forthe i- i the ie University two at at least will be warmly a gp approved r ved by the students Ofte o of these is is the raising of the entrance Vrej requirements to the University the other is IS the plan for the o gradual s D 1 df f a ll Je preparatory ra ory in ins t f action With reference to the the first of these plans the Catalogue states state After 1907 no student will be admitted to full standing in the University who has not completed the equivalent of a high school course of four years The student must show evidence of this this either i by passing entrance examinations or by presenting certificates properly signed by responsible high school authorities This work must include r four years of English one year of algebra i. i e. e Algebra a plane geometry complete and one year of history ancient or mediaeval or general or English or American and the aggregate of nine units chosen from among the studies usually taught in high schools The term unit as here used means the equivalent of one subject pursued for one year of approximately nine months with four or five recitations recitations recitations of forty-five forty minutes each per week A subject pursued for only a year half-year or for a whole year year with fewer than the equivalent of four recitations per week is rated at but a half unit Not fewer than two of the nine elective units should be offered in Latin German or French and one extra unit half-unit in algebra i. i e. e Algebra b otherwise b-otherwise otherwise a candidate candidate can can- for the degree of Bachelor of Arts must take these subjects in college A student who enters any of the engineering courses in addition to the English history algebra and geometry above indicated must present as part of the nine units an extra unit half-unit in algebra i. i e. e ev Algebra b a unit half-unit in solid geometry a unit half-unit in plane trigonometry trigonometry trigonometry trigo trigo- and o one e unit in elementary physics The remaining six and V one-half one units may may be chosen at the will of the student except that the choice should include at least two years of some foreign language language- preferably German A student who enters the medical course in addition to the English English Eng Eng- lish hi history tory algebra and above indicated ge geometry metry must present two years 1 i. i e. e two hyo units units of foreign language lang one of which preferably both must be in m Latin and two years i i. i e. e two units of science made i up from chemistry physics zoology botany physiology etc The remaining remaining remaining re- re five units may be chosen at the will of the student V ELECTIVE SUBJECTS The subjects

subjects other than those here named credit may be given provided evidence is furnished that it has been well done If one year only in any language is offered at entrance the student student student stu stu- dent must continue the study of that language for at least one year in college With respect to the elimination of preparatory work the preparatory preparatory preparatory prepa prepa- pamphlet makes the following general statement Though the University no longer attempts to give a complete high school course it still offers considerable instruction of preparatory grade This instruction is designed deigned for students from high schools which do donot donot donot not as yet give a complete high school course and for others who have not fully met the entrance requirements to the University The University desires to encourage the establishment of high schools in all parts of the state and to do all in its power to foister them after they are established Its policy therefore is to urge students students students stu stu- dents to remain in their local high hig-h school until they have completed its course At the same time the University is unwilling that any break shall exist between the work of the high schools of the state and that of the University High school students who are ambitious n to secure a college education should not be held back through lack of ready opportunity to obtain complete preparation It is to supply such opportunity and thus to make sure that its own collegiate work shall t be properly recruited that the University still offers instruction of preparatory preparatory preparatory pre pre- grade In accordance with this policy the following requirements for admission admission ad ad- mission to preparatory instruction are in effect FIRST YEAR Beginning with 1907 no students are admitted to the instruction of first year high school grade except holders of the normal scholarships These students must according to law be graduates graduates graduates grad grad- o oi of the district schools SECOND YEAR In 1907 only those students will be to lo lothe the instruction of second year high school grade who register as normal normal nor nor- mal students and who have completed English a aJ Algebra a and the equivalent of two units of other high school work Beginning with 1908 only holders of normal scholarships who have completed one year of high school work will be admit admitted ed to the instruction of second year high school grade THIRD AND FOURTH YEARS Until further notice any st student dent who has completed not less than two years of high hig-h school work will bel bd admitted to instruction of preparatory grade in the University This d f. f work must include English a and b Algebra a a and enough other subs sub sub- s j to to make five units History and plane geometry will be accepted I I I I lr I as units I t LF L' F 7 1 j |
