Constitutional Law and Government, and Anglo-Saxon.
The degree of Graduate in a school embraces, in the schools
of Ancient Languages, the Latin and Greek Languages; in the
school of Modern Languages, any two of the languages taught
therein, except Anglo-Saxon; in that of Mathematics, all the
studies of the school, except the Mixed Mathematics; in that of
Natural Philosophy the same, omitting Geology and Mineral gy:

degree of Graduate is also conferred in each of the Modern
Languages separately, and in the Mixed Mathematics.
None are admitted to these degrees who fail to give satisfactory
evidence of their attainments at the public examinations and
the examinations for graduation.
