SECOND YEAR.

Anatomy 3.—Ten hours weekly through the first and second terms. This
course is the continuation of Anatomy 1, and consists of the systematic
dissection and study, by essentially the same methods, of the parts not
studied during the first year. In addition, a course is given in topographic
anatomy, with the aid of cross sections of the human body. At the end of
this course a practical examination is given, covering the work of Anatomy
1, 2 and 3. Dr. Bean and Dr. Baker.

Physiology.—Four hours' work weekly of lectures, recitations and demonstrations
throughout the year. Six hours weekly of laboratory work in the
first and second terms. The physiology of muscle and nerve; blood and
lymph; the circulation; respiration; secretion; digestion and nutrition, and
the central nervous system. The work of the laboratory closely follows the
lectures as an integral part of the study of each subject. Open only to
students who have obtained a grade of seventy per cent in Histology and
in Biochemistry. The satisfactory completion of the laboratory work of
this course is necessary for admission to Pharmacology. Dr. Hough.

Bacteriology and Pathology.—Twelve hours weekly throughout the session
and two additional hours a week in the third term. The work in pathology
is open only to students who have obtained a record of passed in Histology.
Bacteriology and pathology are taught in a combined course. Emphasis is
laid upon the medical and public health aspects of bacteriology. Autopsies
and the study of gross and microscopic specimens supply the practical
work accompanying the systematic study of pathology. Opportunity is
given selected students for advanced work. Dr. Marshall.

Pharmacology.—Five hours of lectures, recitations and demonstrations and
six hours of laboratory work during the third term. In this course a study is
made of the chemical characteristics and physiological action of representative
drugs from the different pharmacological groups. An average grade
of seventy per cent on the first two terms of Physiology together with the
satisfactory completion of the laboratory work of Physiology is required for
admission to the course. Dr. Waddell, assisted by Mr. Fox and Mr. Vonderlehr.

Journals.—In connection with the work in Physiology, Bacteriology
and Pathology, the second-year students meet with their instructors for
one hour each week from the first of December to the end of the session
for reports and discussion of the current literature of the above sciences.
Three reports are made at each meeting by the students.

Physical Diagnosis.—Four hours weekly during the third term. Instruction
is given in the principles and methods of physical examination. Attention
is especially given to study of the normal subject. Dr. Flippin and Dr.
Magruder.
