University of Virginia Library

M. A. COURSE.

In this course there will be occasional lectures, but in general the exercises
of the class will be conducted by questions, conversation and conference.
Readings will be assigned, independent investigation insisted upon, and
written reports required from time to time. The students will be encouraged
to form their own judgments and to express them orally or in writing. References
for each author, period, or subject studied will be given, and the free
use of the library in this and all courses is cordially recommended.
