BIOLOGY

These courses have been so organized as to meet the needs of teachers
who are working in secondary schools, to enable pre-medical 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 sB1-II, sB1-III, and s7 or lecture
of sB1-I, in order to meet their full entrance requirements.

Courses sB1-I, sB1-II, sB1-III and s7 are equivalent to three terms'
work of Biology B1, regular session.

A minimum of 6 session-hours in Biology is required as a prerequisite to all
C courses.

Note.—Students are advised to complete the entire three terms of Biology B1
in the Quarter.

Biology sB1-I: Experimental Biology: Second Term. Lecture 8:30;
Laboratory 9:30 to 11:30; B. L. 2. Credit, when taken with Biology s7, 2
session-hours. Laboratory fee, $5.00.

Mr. Betts.

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 premedical
student's work in Courses sB1-II and sB1-III. Biology sB1-I and s7 may be
substituted for the first term's work in Biology B1, regular session.

Biology sB1-II: Botany: First term. Lecture 8:30; Laboratory 9:30
to 11:30; B. L. 12. Credit when taken with Biology s7, 2 session-hours.

study of ferns and flowering plants. No text. Biology sB1-II and s7 may be substituted
for the second term's work in Biology B1, regular session.

Biology sB1-III: Zoölogy: Both Terms. Lecture 2:30; Laboratory
3:30 to 5:30; B. L. 3. Credit, when taken with Biology s7, 2 session-hours.
Laboratory fee, $5.00.

Mr. Gilbert.

Deals with the structure of animals and their vital phenomena. No text-book. Biology
sB1-III and s7 may be substituted for the third term's work in Biology B1, regular session.

Biology s7: Biological Seminar: Both Terms. 11:30; B. L. 3. Fee,
$5.00 for those not registered in sB1-I, sB1-II, or sB1-III.

fee, $10.00 for the quarter. Special fee, $5.00. Credit, 4 session-hours.

Mr. MacFall.

Beginning with the lower forms, this course consists of a comparative study of the
morphology of all the chordates, up to and including the mammals. Work in the laboratory

This course includes a study of the development of the vertebrate embryo, with special
reference to the chick and pig, with a close correlation and study of the body tissues and
organs. Work in the laboratory includes a study of the living embryo, prepared specimens,
demonstrations and drawings, in preparation for weekly quizzes.
