Science.

Science A. Physical Geography:—The entrance requirements in
Physical Geography include such elementary knowledge of the following
topics, as would be obtained from the study of a text-book
like Maury's "Physical Geography" or Tarr's "Elementary Physical
Geography." The earth as a planet; planetary movements; magnetism
of the earth; internal heat of the earth; volcanoes; earthquakes;
arrangement of land masses; forms of land; relief forms of the continents;
islands; properties of water; waters of the land; drainage;
continental drainage; the sea; the oceans; waves and tides; currents
of the sea; physical properties of the atmosphere; climate; winds
and circulation of the air; storms; moisture of the air; hail; snow and
glaciers; electrical and optical phenomena of the atmosphere; relations
between plants and animals; range of plants and animals;
man, including range of human habitation, division into races, conditions
favorable to civilization, and man's influence on physical
geography; influence of physical geography on the industries of
countries. (One unit.)

Science B. Inorganic Chemistry:—The candidate for entrance
credit in Chemistry should have studied, under a competent teacher,
such a course in the elements of inorganic chemistry as can be covered
in three meetings a week during a nine-months' school year, and
in addition thereto should have worked in the laboratory about one
hundred hours, or enough time to perform intelligently the usual experiments
given in a High School laboratory course. The ground
covered by Remsen's "Introduction to the Study of Chemistry" is the
accepted standard. The student's autograph laboratory notes must
be submitted with the examination paper or entrance certificate.
(One unit.)

Science C. Experimental Physics:—A course of one full year,
covering the topics of Mechanics, Sound, Light, Heat, Electricity,
and Magnetism. The work should include (a) lecture-table demonstrations

by the teacher, with appropriate yet simple apparatus; (b)
text-book work, in which the pupil solves numerical problems; and
(c) laboratory exercises by the pupil—all three embodying fundamental
principles of the subject. In the laboratory work at least
thirty exercises should be performed; the following distribution is
advised: In Mechanics, 14; in Sound, 1; in Light, 5; in Heat, 3; in
Electricity and Magnetism, 7. The pupil's note-book of written reports
on these experiments should be submitted with indication of
acceptance on the part of the teacher. Any one of the standard texts
and laboratory manuals may be followed. (One unit.)

Science D. Botany and Zoölogy:—The entrance examinations in
these two subjects, which together count as a single unit, presuppose
such sound elementary knowledge of the structure and functions of
plants and animals, respectively, and of their classifications, as may
reasonably be regarded as representing a half year's work, in each
case, upon plants or animals with the aid of such a text-book on the
one hand, as Coulter's "Plant Structure," and on the other by Jordan
and Kellogg's "Animal Forms;" or other books of similar grade
and character. (One unit.)

In each case the candidate will be required to submit (with his
certificate of preparation or his written examination) his own laboratory
notes and drawings as an evidence of the amount and character
of the direct personal work done by him upon the plants or the
animals, which he has studied.
