III.—EXAMINATIONS FOR GRADUATION.

These are partly oral and partly in writing, and are conducted
by the Professor of the school, in the presence of two other Professors,
forming with him the committee of examination of the
school. Here the student is subjected to searching interrogations
upon the details and niceties, as well as the leading principles of
the subject, and he is expected to be accurately versed in all the
topics treated of in the lectures and the correlative texts.

As a due acquaintance with our own language is made indispensable
to the attainment of even the inferior honors of the
University, all candidates for degrees are subjected to an examination,
in order to test their qualifications in this respect.
