HUMANISTIC STUDIES.

Students, who have enjoyed the benefits of sound preliminary
training in good high schools, are advised in all cases to enrich and
liberalize their professional course by the introduction of humanistic
studies.

Under the elective system of this University it is easy to plan a
schedule of work for a well prepared matriculate, which will at the
end of six years give him in addition to his professional degree the
general culture degree of Bachelor of Science or of Bachelor of Arts.
The additional courses required are two languages (elected from
French, German, and Latin), one historical science (History, or
Economics), English Literature, or Biblical History and Literature,
and one philosophical science (Logic, or Ethics, or Psychology).

The following is a sample schedule leading at the end of six years
to the two degrees of B. S. and C. E.
