PH. D. COURSE.

This is designed for students who wish to make a special study of the
literature or the philology of the language. Only those who have completed
the lower courses are admitted to it. The work will be adapted to the
aims of the student, but in all cases the study of Gothic, Old High German
and Middle High German will be required. Applicants for the degree of
Ph. D. will be required to prepare a dissertation showing original research.
Three hours a week.

at the beginning of the year.
