BIOLOGY

These courses have been so constructed as to meet the needs of
teachers who are working in secondary schools, and to enable premedical
students to fulfill the medical entrance requirements as prescribed
by the American Medical Association, and for credit toward
undergraduate and graduate degrees.

Pre-medical students must take Courses 4, 5 and 6 in order to
meet their full entrance requirements. These three courses are
equivalent to two terms work of Biology B1, regular session.

Biology 4. Botany.—Both Terms. Lecture 8:30; Laboratory 9:30 to
11:30; B. L. 1. Credit, when taken with Biology 6, 2 session-hours.
Laboratory fee for teachers $1.00, for others $5.00. Mr. Kepner
and Mr. Zirkle. Second Term, Mr. Speidel and Mr. Zirkle.

Deals with the structures of plants and their vital phenomena. Introduction to
the systematic study of ferns and flowering plants. No text. Biology 4 and 6 are
equivalent to one term's work in Biology B1 regular session.

Biology 5. Zoölogy.—Both Terms. Lecture 2:30; Laboratory 3:30
to 5:30; B. L. 1. Credit, when taken with Biology 6, 2 session-hours.
Laboratory fee for teachers $1.00, for others $5.00. Mr.
Kepner and Mr. Zirkle. Second Term, Mr. Speidel and Mr. Zirkle.

Deals with the structure of animals and their vital phenomena. No text-book.
Biology 5 and 6 are equivalent to one term's work in Biology B1, regular session.

Biology 6. Experimental Biology.—Both Terms. 11:30; B. L. 1.
Laboratory fee $5.00 to those not registered in Biology 4 or 5.
Mr. Kepner and Mr. Zirkle. Second Term, Mr. Speidel and Mr.
Zirkle.

A presentation of experimental work on the physiology of plants and animals.
The work of this course will be suggestive and helpful to teachers and supplements
the pre-medical student's work in Courses 4 and 5. This course has no credit
value unless taken with Biology 4 or 5.

—Second Term—Mr. Speidel.

Course based upon Peabody and Hunt's Elementary Biology, the text-book that the
State Department will require to be taught in all rural and small town high schools.
Demonstrations and text-book work. This course has no credit value unless taken
with Biology 4 or 5. Students taking this course will do the laboratory work with
Biology 6 and in addition take assigned reading from the text.
