COURSES IN THE ACADEMIC SCHOOLS WHICH ARE OPEN TO
COLLEGE STUDENTS AS ELECTIVES FOR THE
FIRST DEGREE IN ARTS.
A brief summary is here presented of the courses open to election by
candidates for the baccalaureate degree under the preceding group system
and as electives at large: in addition candidates may offer as electives
at large any of the graduate courses open to candidates for the degree of
Master of Arts, a summary of which, with a schedule of lecture and
examination hours is given on page 124: provided that in each case the
undergraduate course or courses prerequisite for the subject in question
have been completed. A description of each of these courses will be
found in the statements of the Academic Schools upon subsequent pages
(125-159). Where a course is stated to be prerequisite to a second course,
the latter may be taken parallel with the former if, in the judgment of
the professor concerned, the circumstances justify such a privilege.
