B. A. COURSE.
Students who desire to enter this must possess an accurate knowledge of
the elements of English grammar, and some familiarity with the rudiments of
the language studied, or in lieu thereof a careful training in Latin. They will
study the grammar of the language, and will be practiced in pronunciation, on
which special stress will be laid, and in translation, supplemented by weekly
written exercises, copious parallel reading, and a course in the history and the
literature of the language. The amount of parallel reading to be done is definite,
and is assigned at the beginning of the session. Special attention is paid
to reading at sight.
