courses as are necessary to complete the above requirement for the first and
second sessions.

baccalaureate degree, 15 session-hours may be elected from any courses in the
academic schools for which the candidate has adequate preparation.

(3) Major-Electives.—The remaining 12 session-hours required for either
degree, shall be known as Major-Electives. The Major-Electives shall include at
least one C course (which must require two B courses as a prerequisite) and
must all be offered from some one of the following Major-Groups of related
subjects, except that when the Major Group is Group III, the candidate may
offer in lieu of a C course, any 6-hour B course, in this Group, for admission to
which another 6-hour B course in the Group is prerequisite.

The Major-Electives must all be completed in this College or in some professional
department of this University.

of the professional departments of Engineering or Education may be substituted

which must be completed in one of the professional departments of this University,
cannot be begun by the candidate until he has spent at least two sessions of
nine months each in successful work in this College, and has at least 45 session-hours
to his credit.
