EXAMINATIONS FOR GRADUATION.
The examinations for graduation are held in the last month of the
session. They are conducted in each school by the Professor thereof,
in the presence of two other Professors, forming with him the committee
of examination for the school.
The candidates for graduation are subjected to searching interrogations
on the details and niceties as well as on the leading principles of the subject,
and they are expected to be accurately versed in all the topics
treated of in the lectures and correlative text,
These examinations are chiefly carried on in writing; but in some of
the schools they are partly oral.
As a proper acquaintance with the English language is indispensable
to the attainment of any of the honors of the Institution, all candidates
for graduation are required to exhibit in their examination due qualifications
in this respect.
