HYGIENE.
Adjunct Professor Davis.
In this course the chemical and bacterial contamination of food, water, air, and
soil first engages the attention of the student. With this preparation he takes
up the natural history of contagious and infectious diseases, their modes of propagation
and methods of prevention. Instruction is also given in the proper location
and construction of habitations, hospitals, school-houses, etc., with especial
reference to modern methods of heating, ventilating, and draining. Notice is
taken of the special relations involved in Military and Naval Hygiene.
