DEGREES.
The degree of Doctor of Medicine is conferred upon such students as
prove their fitness for the same by rigid and searching examination. It
has ever been the policy of the Institution to make its honors testimonials
of merit, and not certificates of attendance on a prescribed
course of instruction. In accordance with this policy, the degree of
Doctor of Medicine may be conferred on a first-course student if found
worthy of it. Not only is it within reach of the intelligent, diligent and
persevering to graduate in one session of nine months, but in point of
fact many do thus graduate.
