GROSS ANATOMY AND ANTHROPOLOGY

Anatomy C1: Biology B1 prerequisite.—19 hours weekly during the first
term and 12 hours weekly during the second term.
This course begins with
a systematic study of the bones, on the completion of which a part is assigned
to each student for dissection and study. On the completion of this course each
student has dissected a lateral half of the body. The student obtains his knowledge
at first hand and by his own personal efforts.

Dr. Bean, Dr. Speidel and Assistants.

Anatomy C2: Biology B1 prerequisite.—6 hours weekly during the second
term.
This course consists of a laboratory study of the anatomy of the central
nervous system carried out in considerable detail. The gross anatomy of the
spinal cord and brain is first considered, on the completion of which sections of
the more important regions are studied with the aid of the microscope. Fresh

is prepared by each student.

Dr. Speidel.

term.
Topographic and applied anatomy.
