THE SUMMER QUARTER.

The Summer Quarter is an integral part of the University year. Courses
in the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as the Department of Education,
are the same in character and in 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. Sixty-three session-hours of undergraduate
courses, taken in conformity with the requirements published herewith, are
required for the Bachelor's degree. Those who contemplate completing
their degree requirements in the Summer Quarter should keep clearly in
mind, in estimating the time that will be required, that the normal amount
of credit which may be taken in one Summer Quarter is six session-hours.

Candidates for a degree who desire credit for work done at other colleges
must satisfy the entrance requirements for regular students and must,
in addition, file with the Dean of the Summer Quarter a certificate covering
the courses for which college credit is desired. This certificate must be acceptable
both to the Dean of the Summer Quarter and to the Dean of the
Department in which the degrees will be obtained. The certificate must
bear the official signature of the head of the candidate's college and must
specify the character and content of the courses passed by the candidate
and must give his grade. In every case the candidate must spend at least
three full Summer Quarters at the University in order to meet the residence
requirements.

The Master's degree may be obtained by properly qualified persons in
three Summer Quarters. In no case is this degree to be conferred upon any
person who has not attended and done graduate work three full Summer
Quarters or the equivalent time in the regular session of the University and
the Summer Quarter.

On account of the increasing demand for graduate work in the Summer
Quarter, the number of graduate courses will be enlarged in 1923.

All persons who are looking forward ultimately to taking a degree
through summer work are urgently requested to file with the Dean of the
Summer Quarter an official statement of their entrance requirements and
work for which college credit is desired. Blanks for this purpose will be
mailed upon application.
