VIII.—ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY AND SURGERY.

Professor Warner.—In Anatomy, the lectures are delivered from
Subjects, with which the school is regularly supplied. The text-book is
Horner's Special Anatomy. In Surgery, the text-book is Cooper's First
Lines. In Physiology the text-book is Dunglison's Human Physiology.
This and the two preceding schools constitute the Medical Department of
the University; and the candidates for the degree of "Doctor of Medicine,"
must pass examination in them all. An extensive Museum is attached to
this department. It possesses one advantage, at least, over the other Medical
Schools in the United States, in having a session of more than ten
months,
instead of one of about four.

A full course of lectures in the Medical Department of this University,
is considered as equivalent to a full course in both the Philadelphia and
Baltimore Schools: so that a student with a certificate from this University
of having attended a full course of lectures here, is entitled to stand for
graduation at either of the above named schools, after having attended all
the lectures there delivered for one session only.
