XIII. PERSONAL HYGIENE FOR THE SOLDIER.

—No Fee.

This course will be offered by the Medical Faculty
and will be given one hour a week during the fall term.

In addition to these new courses the Committee believes
that the following existing courses in the University
will prove both interesting and valuable for students contemplating
Federal service.

1. INTERNATIONAL LAW AND DIPLOMACY.

The nature, sources, development, and rules of international
law (with a consideration of the problems of the European
War), the causes of war, peace projects of the past, arbitral
machinery, problems of the future, and the foregoing policy of
the United States. —Adjunct Professor Rogers and Mr. Dingledine.

2. ENGINEERING GEOLOGY.

A course of three lectures a week and three hours for
private study. Special emphasis is given to the study of
common rock-forming minerals and rocks, building stones and
ores. The divisions of dynamical, structural and physiographical
geology are covered in considerable detail, and the practical
applications of the topics treated to engineering work are
pointed out. (Fall, Winter, Spring Terms). —Professor
Watson.

3. PLANE SURVEYING.

—Fee $10.00

Lectures on the theory, uses and adjustments of the Compass
level, Transit and Stadia, the Computations of Surveying;
the methods and proper conduct of Farm, City, Topographic
and Hydrographic surveys. Practical class exercises
illustrating the subject matter of the lectures are assigned.

With this lecture course goes a practical course in field
surveys.

Special emphasis will be laid on practical work in taking
topography and contour mapping. This course comprises
three lectures per week during the spring term and six hours
per week in the field during the same term.—Professor Newcomb.

4. TOPOGRAPHICAL DRAWING.

—Fee $ 3.50

In this course the conventional methods of making topographical
maps are carefully taught. Each student is required
to become reasonably proficient in the preparation
of such maps. Particular attention is paid to the study of
contour plans and the solution of problems based on them.
(Spring term) —Professor Newcomb.

5. MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS.

Four hours of drill and one hour of lectures weekly
throughout the entire session. — Colonel Cole.
