SECOND YEAR.

Anatomy 3.—Four hours weekly through the first and second terms. This
course is the continuation of Anatomy 1, and consists of the systematic
study of topographic anatomy, with the aid of cross sections of the human
body, special dissections, and wet preparations; with a review of the whole
body in relation to the needs of the student in general medicine and surgery.
At the end of this course a practical examination is given, covering the
work of Anatomy 1, 2 and 3. Dr. Bean, Dr. Speidel and Dr. Hoover.

Physiology.—Lectures, recitations, and demonstrations, six hours weekly
during the first and second terms; four hours weekly during the third term;
laboratory work, six hours weekly during the first term, two hours weekly during
the second term.
The physiology of muscle and nerve; blood and
lymph; the circulation; respiration; secretion; digestion and nutrition, and
the central nervous system. The work of the laboratory closely follows
the lectures as an integral part of the study of each subject. Open only
to students who have obtained grades of seventy per cent in Histology
and Biochemistry. The satisfactory completion of the laboratory work
of this course is necessary for admission to Pharmacology. Dr. Hough
and Mr. Strang.

Bacteriology and Pathology.Twelve hours weekly throughout the session
and two additional hours a week in the third term.
The work in pathology
is open only to students who have obtained a record of passed in Histology.
Bacteriology and pathology are taught in a combined course. Emphasis is
laid upon the medical and public health aspects of bacteriology. Autopsies
and the study of gross and microscopic specimens supply the practical
work accompanying the systematic study of pathology. Opportunity is
given selected students for advanced work. Dr. Marshall and Dr.
Reynolds.

Pharmacology.—Lectures, recitations and demonstrations five hours
weekly and laboratory work six hours weekly, during the third term.
The
physical and chemical characteristics and the mode of action of representative
drugs and other chemic agents are dealt with in both didactic and
practical exercises. Special attention is given to analysing and interpreting
the results obtained in the laboratory. An average grade of seventy
per cent on the first two terms of Physiology together with the satisfactory
completion of the laboratory work of Physiology is required for
admission to the course. Dr. Waddell, assisted by Mr. Wood and Mr. Ottenheimer.

Clinical Diagnosis.—Six hours weekly during the second and third terms.
During the session 1920-21, this course is given both to second and third
year students. Dr. Bray.

Journals.—In connection with the work in Physiology, Bacteriology
and Pathology, the second-year students meet with their instructors for
one hour each week from the first of December to the end of the session
for reports and discussion of the current literature of the above sciences.
Three reports are made at each meeting by the students.

Physical Diagnosis.Four hours weekly during the third term. Instruction
is given in the principles and methods of physical examination. Attention
is especially given to study of the normal subject. Dr. Flippin.
