The Chemical Journal Club will meet once a week (hour to be arranged)
for the critical review and discussion of various topics of interest in current
chemical literature and of such chemical researches as are in progress in the
University. All members of the teaching staff and advanced students in chemistry
are expected to participate in these meetings and to take part in the discussions.

The Organic Colloquium will meet bi-weekly (hours to be arranged).
Recent papers of interest to organic chemists will be presented. Graduate
students specializing in Organic Chemistry are expected to support the
meetings. Undergraduates and others interested are invited to attend and
participate in the discussions.

The Chemical Laboratory, recently completed, is of brick, fire-proof construction,
and the three floors afford 45,000 square feet of space. The seven
larger laboratories will accommodate 575 students, and in addition to these
there are numerous smaller laboratories for the use of the staff and advanced


201

Page 201
students. There are also rooms for various special purposes, including three
dark rooms. The equipment is satisfactory for purposes of both instruction
and research. The laboratory maintains a working library containing about
5,000 volumes directly relating to chemistry, as well as complete files of the
important periodicals. A gift to the School of Chemistry from Mrs. Hamilton
Barksdale in memory of her husband, and from Delaware alumni and
friends of the University, provides an annual income sufficient for the adequate
maintenance of the library.

Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy: In addition to
fulfilling the regular University requirements for the Degree of Doctor of
Philosophy, candidates for this degree who select chemistry as their Major
Subject must give evidence of thorough training in inorganic, organic, analytical,
and physical chemistry, by passing written qualifying examinations in
these subjects; these examinations to be passed not later than October 15th of the
session in which it is expected that the degree will be conferred.

Fellowships: There are available each session a number of Service Fellowships
in Chemistry, each with an honorarium of $650, and exemption
from tuition. These fellowships present the opportunity for graduate study
and research in Chemistry, accompanied by a limited amount of instructional
work. Holders of the fellowships will be expected to devote not more
than fifteen hours a week to instruction, leaving ample time for research and
work toward a graduate degree. On reappointment the required amount of
instructional work may be reduced. The fellowships are open to men who
have received a bachelor's degree from a college or university of recognized
standing, and who have received thorough undergraduate training in chemistry
and physics. Preference will be given to applicants who have studied
calculus, German, and French

In addition to the Service Fellowships, a number of advanced Fellowships,
requiring no instructional work, are also available to students who have
already had graduate training in chemistry in this University or elsewhere.

Applications for Fellowships should be made before March 1, on forms
obtainable from the Secretary of the Chemistry Faculty.

The Master's Degree.—A varying number of Romance group courses,
ranging from six to ten hours a week throughout the year, a final oral examination,
and a thesis are prescribed for the master's degree. A candidate of average
ability and good training may absolve the requisite number of courses within
one year after the baccalaureate degree. The final oral examination, however,
embraces questions asked and answered in two Romanic languages; and the
candidate whose collegiate work represents one Romanic language only will find
it difficult to acquire in one year the supplementary language and absolve other
requirements. Further, the thesis must incorporate the results (elementary, at
least) of original investigation on the part of the candidate; and unless he already
have at the outset, or find very quickly, a promising subject of investigation, nine
months will prove insufficient for the work.

The Doctorate.—A varying number of Romance group courses, ranging
from fifteen to twenty, distributed over a period of three years after the baccalaureate
degree, are prescribed for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in
Romanic Languages. The final oral examination embraces questions asked and
answered in French, Spanish, and Italian. The scope and character of original
investigation presented by the candidate's dissertation must satisfy the Romanic
Faculty as a whole. To facilitate the acquisition of a speaking knowledge of the
third, or supplementary, Romanic language, candidates are granted the privilege
of optional attendance on any French, Spanish, or Italian course in the College.

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 and Dr. Speidel.

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


250

Page 250
the more important regions are studied with the aid of the microscope. Fresh
brains and series of sections of the cord and brain are thoroughly used. A
reconstruction of the central nervous system showing the more important pathways
is prepared by each student.

BACTERIOLOGY AND PREVENTIVE MEDICINE

Bacteriology C1: Biology B1 prerequisite.—Lectures, conferences and
laboratory work 12 hours weekly during the third term.
The object of this course
is to acquaint the student with the microörganisms which are of importance to
man and his environment, the methods used in their study and identification. The
fundamentals of infection and immunity are taught. The student learns the common
procedures used in the diagnosis and treatment of infectious disease. So far as
practicable the material studied is obtained from the environment, from the body
surfaces and excretions of normal individuals, and from the body surfaces, excretions,
secretions and exudates of the persons with various common pathological
conditions. The student is thus introduced to the etiology of infectious disease
and some of the factors involved in resistance. Through a consideration of
selected bacteriologic and immunologic studies the basis is laid for the later
study of epidemiology and preventive medicine.

Dr. Maxcy and Dr. Derrick.

Preventive Medicine and Epidemiology C1: Biology B1 prerequisite.—2
hours weekly during the first two terms.
—The primary object of this course is to
interest the student in the practice of preventive medicine. By lectures, clinics
and demonstrations the epidemiology of each of the common communicable diseases
is presented. The student is encouraged to consider these diseases not solely from
the point of view of diagnosis and treatment in the individual case, but to understand
the environmental factors and biologic conditions which are responsible for
its maintenance and propagation in nature, and the possibilities of control or
prevention, through the efforts of the private physician or the functioning of
organized public health agencies.

Dr. Maxcy and Dr. McQuade.


251

Page 251

Immunology D1: Bacteriology C1 prerequisite.—This course is designed to
amplify the introduction to immunology given in the regular course in Bacteriology
during the first year. During the third and fourth years the student has become
acquainted with clinical medicine. It is desirable to review the factors concerned
in resistance to infection and the scientific background for the treatment of infectious
diseases. By means of conferences and laboratory assignments the student is given
an opportunity to perform and observe some of the characteristic phenomena in
test tube and in the experimental animal. Special attention is given to those
biologic reactions which are of value in the diagnosis or treatment of disease such
as the Wassermann reaction, the Kahn reaction, agglutination technique, standardization
of antitoxic sera, etc.

Dr. Maxcy.

BIOCHEMISTRY

Biochemistry C1: Chemistry B3 prerequisite.—Lectures and laboratory 9
hours weekly during the second and third terms.

PHYSIOLOGY

Physiology C1: Histology C1 and Biochemistry C1 prerequisite.—Lectures,
recitations, and demonstrations, 5 hours weekly during the first term and 4 hours
during the second term; laboratory work, 7 hours weekly during the first term,
3 hours weekly during the second term.
In the lecture course attention is drawn
to the fundamental branches of the subject, and the more difficult aspects are
thoroughly discussed. Recent important physiological contributions are evaluated,
and the student is directed further to consult various monographs and original
papers.

The laboratory work consists of preliminary elemental experiments on the
neuromuscular system, followed by intensive courses in mammalian and in human
physiology. The latter are designed particularly to train students to observe and
record, and to interpret and make deductions from their results. Suggestive outlines
only are provided for the experimental studies. The course is particularly devised
to stimulate and correlate the student's consideration of the activities of the
organism as a whole. Emphasis is given to those branches of physiology which
should prove valuable in later work in medicine.

Dr. Britton, Dr. Corey and Mr. Silvette.

Physiology D1: Physiology C1 prerequisite.—Application of physiology to
medicine. Session 1934-35.

Dr. Britton.

Physiology D2: Physiology C1 prerequisite.—The function of the alimentary
tract and related organs. Session 1933-34.

Physiology D3: Embryology C1 and Physiology C1 prerequisites.—Physiology
of the fetus. Session 1934-35.

Dr. Corey.

Physiology D4: Physiology C1 prerequisite.—Comparative physiology of
the internal secretions. Session 1933-34.

Dr. Corey.

The above D courses require 6 hours weekly during the third term.

Physiology D5: Physiology C1 prerequisite.—Original investigation. Opportunity
is afforded a limited number of qualified students to undertake investigative
work at any time throughout the year in physiology or nearly related sciences

Dr. Britton, Dr. Corey and Mr. Silvette.

PATHOLOGY

Pathology C1: Anatomy C1 and Physiology C1 prerequisite.—8 hours
weekly during the first term; 11 hours weekly during the second term, and 9 hours
weekly during the third term.
By a systematic series of lectures, combined with
demonstrations of both gross and microscopic preparations, the various morbid
conditions of the body are presented. In the laboratory, under supervision, the
student personally examines all of the gross material and devotes considerable time
to the study of the loan-collection of slides with which he is provided.

In addition to this systematic portion of the course an attempt is made to
acquaint the students with fresh tissues and disease as seen at the autopsy table.
With this end in view the class is divided into small groups of students each of
which assists at a limited number of autopsies. Fresh tissues are demonstrated
during class hours and, whenever possible, autopsies are performed before the entire
class.

Dr. Cash, Dr. Scherer, Dr. Meriwether and Dr. Derrick.

Pathology D1: Pathology C1 prerequisite.—An elective course in pathology
is offered to all students of the fourth-year medical class 2 hours weekly throughout
the session.
The nature of his course will vary according to the number of
students who apply for it. Regardless of the manner in which the course is conducted,
its general purpose is to afford the student, who has already had considerable
training in clinical medicine, a systematic review of the anatomical
changes occurring in the commonly encountered diseases. The current pathological
material is demonstrated to this group of students throughout the year.

A limited number of students, who seem properly qualified, may undertake
the study of special problems in which they may be interested. Hours by special
arrangement.

Dr. Cash and Dr. Scherer.

PHARMACOLOGY

Pharmacology C1: Physiology C1 prerequisite.—Lectures, recitations and
demonstrations 4 hours weekly and laboratory work 9 hours weekly, during the
second term.
The physical and chemical characteristics and the mode of action
of representative drugs and other chemic agents are dealt with both in didactic
and practical exercises. Special attention is given to analysing and interpreting
the results obtained in the laboratory.

Dr. J. A. Waddell, Mr. Moir and Assistants.

Pharmacology D1: The biological significance and pharmacological action
of the compounds of certain metallic elements, particular attention being
given to Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, and Cu. Session 1931-32.

Pharmacology D2: The influence of chemical structure on pharmacological
action, the significance of the presence and position in the molecule
of alkyl, hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino radicles being investigated. Session
1932-33.

Pharmacology D3: The standardization of drugs, embracing a study of
the most representative methods, chemical and biological. Session 1933-34.

in the out-patient department. The importance, etiology, prophylaxis, pathology,
clinical history, diagnosis and treatment of syphilis are discussed. After review of
the anatomic and histologic structure and physiology of the skin the diseases commonly
met with are discussed. The main object in this course is not to train
specialists but to give all the students basic information regarding the diagnosis
and treatment of the common skin diseases and syphilis. The relationship of
these to other branches of medicine is emphasized.

Dr. Smith and Dr. Brumfield.

Dermatology C2: Dermatology C1 prerequisite.—1 ward round weekly
for one trimester.
Cases of syphilis and skin diseases requiring special study or
