64 COLLEGE OF LETTERS AND SCIENCE

ing along the lines of soil chemistry and physiological chemistry may be
obtained by election of courses in these subjects along with the required
studies of the general course.

REQUIREMENTS. Students having the entrance requirements prescribed
for the College of Letters and Science may be admitted to this course. It
will be observed from the outline of the curriculum below that the work of
the freshman year is identical in each of the four fields of study, and in all
of them a year each of general inorganic, analytical, organic, and physical
chemistry is required. The course in English is the composition course
required of all freshmen in the University. The equivalent of at least
courses 2a and 2b in German and courses la and 1b in French is required
for graduation from the Course in Chemistry, but preparatory work in
these languages may satisfy the graduation requirement in part. A stu-
dent entering with preparation in but one of these languages will naturally
continue work in it during the freshman year.

In each of the courses, 130 credits and an equal number of grade-
points are required for graduation. Students will frequently find it desir-
able to absolve a part of the requirements during one or more summer
sessions. The work of the senior year includes the writing of a thesis,
embodying the results of a detailed experimental investigation.

Each year at least one opportunity for an extended industrial trip will
be offered. The Middle West has become an important center of chemical
industries, and nearly all of the more important of them may be seen in
operation here. It is expected that the students taking the Course in Chem-
istry will avail themselves fully of these opportunities to visit representa-
tive industrial plants. At least one such trip must be taken during the
course. While it is not specifically required for graduation, students are
urged to devote at least one of their summer vacation periods to practical
chemical work in some chemical industry.
