SUMMER QUARTER

The Summer Quarter is an integral part of the University year. Courses
in the College of Arts and Sciences are the same in character and credit value
as in any other Quarter of the University. Degrees are conferred upon men
and women upon exactly the same terms for work done in the Summer Quarter
when the degree requirements are fully met.

The normal amount of work which a student may take for college credit
each term is three courses aggregating three session-hours. A student may
take four session-hours, provided (a) he has passed in the regular session at
the college last attended courses aggregating fifteen session-hours or (b) is in
his graduating year and needs four session-hours for his degree.

In the Summer Quarter for 1928 the following courses were offered giving
college credit: Art, 4; Astronomy, 1; Biblical Literature, 3; Biology, 5; Chemistry,
10; Economics, 11; Education, 25; English, 15; German, 3; Greek, 3;
History, 8; Latin, 9; Mathematics, 10; Philosophy, 6; Psychology, 3; Physics, 3;
Government, 3; French, 6; Spanish, 6; Sociology, 7. Approximately the same
courses will be offered for 1929. Full details regarding these and other courses
in the Summer Quarter may be found in the Summer Quarter Catalogue.

The Summer Quarter consists of two terms each year. In 1929 the first
term begins on June 17th and closes on July 27th, with lectures five times a
week; the second term begins on July 29th and closes on August 30th, with
lectures six times a week.
