APPLIED MATHEMATICS

The following courses in Applied Mathematics will be offered if there
is sufficient demand for them. Those who are interested in these courses
should communicate with the Dean of the Summer Quarter at the earliest
possible date. As soon as sufficient applications are received definite announcements
will be made as to which courses will be given. The tuition
fee is determined largely by the number enrolled in the course. It is usually
approximately $25.00 per course. Payment of this fee and $5.00 registration
fee entitles the student to take one additional summer school course without
extra cost.

Mr. Miller.

Composition and resolution of forces; friction; problems in equilibrium; rectilinear
motion, circular motion, projectile motion. Solution of problems in mechanics by graphical
