PHYSIOLOGY.

Professor Barringer.

The study of Physiology is not begun until the second year, at
which time the student having completed the courses in Chemistry,
Anatomy, and Histology, is well prepared to appreciate the broader
principles of this subject. The work of the school is designed with
reference to its practical bearings, especially on the subsequent
studies of Pathology and Therapeutics.

While only the usual amount of time is given to the general functions,
to the study of the nervous system an amount of time is allotted
fully commensurate with its importance to the practitioner. In the
later study of the functions of the eye, and the ear, an attention
to detail is required which it is believed gives an excellent preparation
for subsequent specialism in this line.
