For Undergraduates.

Course B1: General Geology.—Three lectures and six laboratory
hours per week throughout the session. A general discussion of
dynamical, structural, physiographical, and historical geology with
practical work in the laboratory and excursions in the field. As
full an exposition of the fundamental principles of geology will be
given as the time will allow. (B. A. or B. S. credit, 6 session-hours.)
Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 9-10. Laboratory, Monday, Wednesday,
Friday, 3-5. Adjunct Professor Grasty.

Course B2: General Physical Geology.—A course of three (3)
lectures per week and nine (9) additional hours per week for laboratory
and field work, and private study, throughout the year. The
divisions of Dynamical, Structural, and Physiographical Geology
are covered in considerable detail. Especial emphasis is given the
rock-forming minerals and rocks, building stone, and ores. Special
course for students in Engineering. (B. A. or B. S. credit, 6 session-hours.)

Course B3: Mineralogy.—Three hours of lectures and six laboratory
hours, throughout the year. This course is for beginners, and

it serves both as a general course in the subject, and as an introduction
of more advanced work. Especial attention is given to
Crystallography, Physical and Chemical Mineralogy, and Descriptive
Mineralogy. The second portion of the course will be devoted to
Descriptive Mineralogy, including a study of the classification, properties,
modes of formation, association and occurrence, and uses of
minerals. (B. A. or B. S. credit, 6 session-hours.) Hours by appointment.
Adjunct Professor Grasty.

Term Course: Second Term: Determinative Mineralogy.—A
practical study of mineral species by means of blow-pipe analysis.
The object of this course is to gain familiarity with the common
minerals and facility in their identification. Six hours laboratory
work per week, winter term. Hours by appointment. Mr. Taber.

A laboratory fee of three dollars is required.
