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 entrance requirements as prescribed by
the American Medical Association, and for credit toward undergraduate
and graduate degrees.
Pre-medical students must take Courses S B 1-I, S B 1-II, and S 7 or
Lecture of S B 1-III, in order to meet their full entrance requirements.
These four courses are equivalent to three terms' work of Biology B 1,
regular session.
Note.—Students are advised to complete the entire three terms of Biology B 1 in
the quarter.
Biology S B 1-I. Botany.—Both Terms. Lecture 8:30; Laboratory
9:30 to 11:30; B. L. 3. Credit when taken with Biology S 7, 2 session-hours.
Laboratory fee $5.00. First Term, Mr. Kepner, Mr.
Zirkle, and Mr. Hopkins. Second Term, Mr. Speidel, Mr. Zirkle,
and Mr. Hopkins.
Deals with the structure of plants and their vital phenomena. Introduction to the
systematic study of ferns and flowering plants. No text. Biology S B 1-I and S 7
are equivalent to one term's work in Biology B 1 regular session.
Biology S B 1-II. Zoölogy.—Both Terms. Lecture 2:30; Laboratory
3:30 to 5:30; B. L. 3. Credit, when taken with Biology S 7, 2 session-hours.
Laboratory fee $5.00. First Term, Mr. Kepner, Mr.
Zirkle and Mr. Hopkins. Second Term, Mr. Speidel, Mr. Zirkle
and Mr. Hopkins.
Deals with the structure of animals and their vital phenomena. No text-book. Biology
S B 1-II and S 7 are equivalent to one term's work in Biology B 1 regular session.
Biology S B 1-III. Experimental Biology.—Both Terms. Lecture
10:30; Laboratory 8:30-10:30; B. L. 3. Credit when taken with
Biology S 7, 2 session-hours. Laboratory fee $5.00. 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 S B 1-I and S B 1-II. Biology S B 1-III
and S 7, equivalent to one term's work in Biology B 1, regular session.
Biology S 7. Biological Seminar.—Both Terms, 11:30; B. L. 3. Fee
$5.00 for those not registered in S B 1-I, S B 1-II, S B 1-III, or
S B 3-I. First Term, Mr. Kepner and Mr. Zirkle. Second Term,
Mr. Speidel and Mr. Zirkle.
Biology S B 3-I. Vertebrate Anatomy.—Second Term. Lecture 11:30;
Laboratory 8:30-10:30. B. L. 17. Laboratory fee $5.00. Mr. Speidel.
Credit, two session-hours with Biology S 7.
Biology S 9. Human Physiology.—Both Terms. Lecture 12:30 B. L.
3. Credit, one session-hour. Mr. Hopkins.
The fundamentals of Human Physiology will be dealt with and the practical and
pedagogical aspects of the subject will be considered. The lectures will be supplemented
by demonstrations, reference work and text-book assignments.
Biology S C 1-I. Protozoölogy.—*(1925) Whole Quarter. Lecture
9:30; Laboratory 10:30-12:30; B. L. 3. Credit, one-half C-course.
Laboratory fee $10.00. Special fee $5.00. Mr. Reynolds.
This course deals with the morphology, physiology, and genetics of protozoa. The
a parasitic mode of existence. In discussing the latter their life-histories, methods
of getting from one host to another and the effects produced will be dwelt upon. At
least one hour per week will be devoted to a discussion of scientific papers. Human
Protozoölogy by Hegner and Taliaferro will be used as a guide.
Biology S C 1-II. Helminthology.—*(1926) Whole Quarter. Lecture
9:30; Laboratory 10:30-12:30; B. L. 3. Credit, one-half C-course.
Laboratory fee $10.00. Special fee $5.00. Mr. Reynolds.
Some time will be devoted to the study of free-living helminths but most of the
work will be concerned with forms parasitic on man and the lower vertebrates.
The worms will be divided into flukes, tape-worms and thread-worms and discussed
in the order named. Special emphasis will be placed on their methods of getting
from one host to another and effects produced. Scientific papers will be read and
discussed by the students at regular intervals.
*Note.—These courses alternate with each other, Protozoölogy being given during
odd years and Helminthology during even years.
Biology S C 12. Research.—Whole Quarter. Hours by appointment.
B. L. 3. Credit, an entire C-course when paper has been accepted
for publication. Laboratory fee $10.00. Special fee $5.00. Mr.
Reynolds.
Six session-hours in Biology prerequisite.
Each student will be assigned a problem and required to turn out some work for
publication.
Note.—But one C-course may be taken during a Quarter.
