THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON INTRODUCTION HISTORICAL SKETCH The University of Oregon was established by act of the StatP. Legislature October 19, 1872, and located at Eugene. Deady Hall, the first University building, was erected by the citizens of Lane County, and presented to the Board of Regents in July, 1876. In September of the same ye:1,r, the University opened itR doors for the reception of students. The fir st class was grac1- uated in June, 1878. The preamble of the act of October 21, 1876, entitlerl. , "An act to provide for the support and government of the University of Oregon," is as follows: "WHEREAS, by an Act of the Legislative Assembly, approved October 19, 1872, it was provided that, in order to devote to the purposes of education the seventy-two sections of land donated to the State for the use and support of a State University by the Act of Congress of February 14, 1859, a State University, having for its design to provide instruction and complete educa­ tion in all the departments of science, literature, professional pursuits and general education, be created and permanently located at Eugene ; provided, that the Union University Asso­ ciation of Eugene should, on or before January 1, 1874, secure a site for the same at or in the vicinity of Eugene, and erect thereon and furnish a building of not less value than fifty thousand dollars, for the use of said University, on a plan to be approved, and after the erection of the same, to be adopted , b y the board of commissioners for the sale and management of the school and university lands, and for the investment of the funds arising therefrom; and "WHEREAS, said University Association of Eugene, having duly provided a site for said University, and erected thereon, on a plan first approved by said board of commissioners, a building for the use thereof, as provided in said Act of October 19, 1872, which site and building was by said board of commissioners, in July, 1876, duly accepted, and has since been duly conveyed by said University Association to the board of directors of said University; and '.'WI-J:E REAS, the directors of tbe University aforesaid did , in pursuance of an Act of October 19, 1872, on August 9, 1876, elect and appoint a president and two professors of said University and also a principal and assistant teacher of the preparatory HISTORICAL SKETCH 25 department therein, and did also 'fix the salaries of said presi­ dent, professors and teachers and prescribe the tenure of their offices, the beginning and end of the school year of said Uni­ versity, the studies to be pursued thereat, the admi.ssion fees and rates of tuition, together with the qualifications for admis­ sion therein'; therefore, "Be it enacted by the Legislative Assembly of the State of Oregon: "That the interest which may hereafter accrue on the fund arising from the sale of the University lands aforesaid, is hereby set apart and perpetually appropriated to the maintenance, use and support of the 'University of Oregon'." The equipment of the University was at first very small, and the courses of instruction were limited practically to literary lines. The University grew rapidly, and the demand for a broader curriculum was met by the addition of engineering, scientific and technical courses. The Law School was established in 1884, and the Medical School in 1887. More recently the schools of Education, Architecture, Commerce and Journalism have been added. With the growth and development of the State, the University has increased in numbers and financial resources. Buildings have been erected, riew departments added, and a large equipment installed. During the early years of the institution, the only high schools in the State were located in two or three of the larger cities, and it was necessary for the University to offer preparatory courses in order that students graduating from the schools in smaller towns might continue their work by coming directly to the University. As the high school system of the State developed, it became possible to discontinue the first year of the academy course; a little later the second year was dropped; and finally in 1904, the academy was entirely abolished. A similar growth may be seen in the evolution of the present course of study. When the University first opened its doors in 1876, the ~ork of the' different courses was practically ~Jl required. After a few years, options were allowed in the choice of language groups, and substitutions were permitted for some of the technical requirements. Later a great number of possible combinations of required courses were offered, with a few elective hours. Then came the group system with the work for 26 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON the first two years required, and the greater portion of the last two years elective except for a major elective requirement. Finally, during the year 1904-05, the University adopted prar:­ tically a free elective system of undergraduate study, with a major requirement not to exceed one-third of the one hundred and twenty semester hours necessary for graduation. The only specific requirements, besides the m;ajor, are twelve semester hours of gymnasium work, two year-courses in som,e language other than English, and the attainment of a reasonable proti ciency in English composition. It is found that by means of the . major requirement, the University is able to give a wise direc­ tion to the student's chosen line of work. On the other hand, the limit placed on the amount of required work encourages the enlargement of the student's field of study, and makes possible a broad, general culture. A noteworthy enlargement of the functions of the University is the Correspondence and Extension departments, which bring the resources of the University within the reach of those who are unable to attend the regularly organized classes on the . campus, and further provide lectures for such communities as desire too avail themselves· of the opportunity. THE UNIVERSITY AND THE ST A TE The aim of the University of Oregon in its relation to the educational system of the State is two-fold: First, to supple­ ment the work of the high schools with a four years' university course Second, to encourage graduate study. As an organic part of the State's public school system, the University sustains a relation to the high schools similar to that sustained by the high schools to the grammar grades. As those who have passed through the grammar grades may continue their studies in the high schools, so those who, have completed the full high school course may advance to the opportunities offered by the Univer­ sity. In a word, the University ( exclusive of the Graduate School) embraces the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and six­ teenth grades of the public school system. It completes the work begun in the gram.mar schools and continued in the high schools. GOVERNMENT 27 While the University furnishes instruction in the various branches requisite for a liberal education, and in the technical branches of architecture, commerce, education, journalism, law, medicine and music, it also aims to encourage research work in its departments, and to offer to those who have completed college courses at the University or elsewhere an opportunity to do graduate work along general or special lines. In addition to its work as a part of the public school system, the University attempts to aid in the State's development by gathering exact and detailed information concerning its indus­ trial resources, and by investigating, through its several depart­ ments, such civic and industrial problems as are of special interest to the people of the State. Thoroughly in sympathy with the modern tendency toward the socialization of public education, it is the policy of the University to extend its activities to the service of the State fa every way in . which they ma_y be of value. GOVERNMENT The government of the institution rests upon the inherent obligations of students to the University and to the State. The University is maintained at the public expense for the public good. Those who participate in its benefits are expected, as a matter of honor, not only to fulfill the obligations of loyal members of the institution, of the community, and of the com­ monwealth, but actively to aid in promoting intellectual and moral interests. Every student owes to the public a full equiv­ alent for the expenditure in his behalf, in the form of superior usefulness to it, both while in the institution and afterwards. St~dents, therefore, cannot claim any exewption from the duties ,of good citizens and loyal members of the community and of the University; on the contrary, they are under peculiar obli­ gations loyally to fulfill every duty. As members of the insti­ tution, they are held responsible for regular attendance and the proper perforilljance of their duties. As members of the com­ munity, students are amenable to the law; and, if guilty of its infraction, are liable to a termination of their relations with 28 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON the University. The University recognizes its civic relati0ns and rests its administration upon civic obligations. LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENT The University of Oregon is located at Eugene, in Lane County, at the head of the Willamette Valley. Eugene is 123 miles south of Portland, with which it is convenently connected by the Southern Pacific, Oregon Electric, and the Portland, Eugene and Eastern railroads. Eugene is a prosperous com­ munity of 12,000 inhabitants. Its well-paved streets and street railway systems, its many fine public buildings and its attractive residence districts combine to produce an effect of municipal well-being. Eugene's effective public school system is givi:m higher excellence by the completion of a new high school build­ ing, representing the most approved type of structure of its Glass. The municipal water supply-always a vital considen­ tion-is unexceptionally good. Copious, cold and pure, the water is subjected to twenty tests each· week in the laboratories of the University-a final safeguard against dangerous bacterial co1;1- tamination. The cultural and moral tone of Eugene is high, and the community is unusually free from corrupting influences. The setting of Eugene is wonderfully picturesque, and pre­ sents the widest possible scenic diversity. The highly developed farms near by give way to wooded hills, and these, in turn, to the majestic crests of the Cascade and Coast ranges of moun­ tains. The mountain streams of this region-especially the McKenzie-are justly famous for their trout fishing. No less excellent is the hunting: Pheasant, quail, duck, deer and other game are abundant. These attractions, with the compelling beauty and rugged grandeur of the natural scenery, bring annu­ ally to Eugene and nearby resorts great numbers of sportsmen, t olirists and vacation seeking folk. The climate is delightfully equable, without extremes of either heat or cold and without ,;udden changes, cyclones, or destructive storms of any nature. BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS The University grounds are situated about one mile south­ east of the center of the Gity. Electric cars pass the campns BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS every few minutes, giving easy communication with the businese section and other parts of the city. The campus contains 80 acres of land, about evenly divided into two sections by East Thirteenth street. On the north campus are located the ol<;lE>r University buildings; on the south cam.pus the new administra ­ tion building, the girls' dormitories, the president's dwelling, and the athletic field. The buildings are situated on a natural rise of ground overlooking the city . . Native and exotic trees and shrubs are interspersed here and there with rose hedges and flower gardens. The whole is a beautifully kept lawn, with attractive walks and drives, and is one of the beauty spots of the State. The Willamette River flows along its northern border and the snow-covered Three Sisters and peaks of the Coa:-t Range are in full view. The following buildings are located in the University grounds· DEADY HALL, a four-story building, was presented to the State by the citizens of Lane County, and was named in honor of Matthew P. Deady, the first president of the Board of Regents. It contains the Botanical, Zoological and Physical laboratorieR, imd the department of Romance Languages. VILLARD HALL, erected in 1885, was named in honor of Henry Villard, the builder of the Northern Pacific Railroad, the greatest individual donor to the University's endowment. It is an im­ posing cemented brick building, and contains the departments of English and Latin, and the General Assembly Hall of the University. McCLURE HALL was built in 1900, and houses the departments of Chemistry and Psychology, and the School of Journalism. Tt has three floors, with laboratory facilities for 200 students at a time in Chemistry, 50 students in Psychology, and 50 in Journalism. The laboratories in Psychology occupy the north half of the second floor, while the psychological lecture room is located in the south half. The University printing plant is located in the basement. COMMERCE HALL, erected in 1901, is devoted entirely to the work of the School of Commerce. I• •.) 30 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON ARCHITECTURE HALL, erected in 1914, is a duplicate of Com­ merce HaU in general appearance, and is devited to the use of the School of Architecture. Both Commerce Hall and Architec­ tur~ Hall are two-story brick buildings. THE GIRLS' GYMNASIUM is a brick building well fitted with suitable apparatus for the use of the women of the University. The first floor contains the main hall, a room 45x70 feet, and the director's office. The basement is completely fitted wit!: shower baths, steel lockers, and dressing . rooms. FRIENDLY HALL, the men's dormitory, erected in 1893, with additions completed in 1903 and 1914, is a three-story brick building, equipped with electric lights, steam heat, hot and cold baths, well-furnished parlors and every convenience for the comfort of its occupants. For full information concerning rates and accommodations, see department of catalog, "Student Ex­ penses." LIBRARY HALL, built in 1907, is a two-story and basement building of · pressed brick. On account of the rapid growth ·0f the library, a new fireproof stack room, of steel - and concrete construction, was added in 1914. The library is located south of Deady Hall near Thirteenth street. The first floor contains the general reading room and a general reference room. MARY SPILLER HALL, erected in 1907, will accommodate about twenty girls. It is a two-story and basement building, modern in all respects, well heated and lighted and comfortably ap­ rointed. For full information regarding the cost of board anil room and of accommodations, see department of catalog, "Stu­ dent Expenses." Musrn HALL was completed in February, 1909. It is a two­ story building, located on University avenue, directly east of Architecture Hall. THE MEN'S GYMNASIUM. The gymnasium for men is large and well arranged. It is fitted completely' with all modern con­ veniences, the best apparatus, an indoor running track a swim-. ming pool, shower baths, lockers, etc. BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS 31 The athletic field has a four-lap track surrounding a well­ constructed football field. The grandstand and the bleachers will seat 9,500 people. At the southeast corner of the campus a level tract of 35 acres has been purchased as a site for a new athletic field, and the work of improving it will begin this spring. JOHNSON HALL, erected in 1915, is a two-story and basement building of fireproof construction. The administration offices of the University occupy the entire second floor. The first flonr contains the Condon Geological Collection and Guild Hall. Guild. Hall, with a seating capacity of 200, is fully appointed for student plays and for the work of the department of public speaking. The Dean of Liberal Arts and the Dean of Women also have offices on this floor. The departments of Mathematics, Public Speaking and Geology occupy the basement. EDUCATION HALL was completed in 1916. It is a three-story brick building, 80 feet by 120 feet in dimension, and contains all the departments of the School of Education, including the practice high school, the offices of the School of Extension Study, and tho Law School. THE GIRLS' DORMITORY. An appropriation of $50,000 has been made by the Legislature for the purpose of erecting a girls' dormitory. The building should be ready for occupancy some­ time during the school year 1917-18. THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY STAFF M. H. DOUGLASS, M.A., Librarian. BEATRICE J. BARKER, Ph. B., Head Catalogun.

The University Library is a well-selected and rapidly-growing collection of books now numbering about 70,000 volumes. I Since 1908, the regular annual appropriation for books and periodicals and for binding has been $10,000, tho in 1911, 1912 and l!l14, because of unusual demands in other directions, the full amount was not available. In 1916 a special appropriation of $5,000 was made for books on law and architecture to help meet the needs of the comparatively new schools of law and architecture. The Library is supplied with the best general and special reference books; the files of the principal American and English :Periodicals of general interest, and with many of the most useful sets of periodicals of special and scientific interest, both Amer­ ican and foreign. • Nearly 500 periodicals are currently received, 'besides many of the daily and weekly newspapers of the State. The Library is a depository for the public documents pub­ lished by the United States Government. The annual appropriation for books is sufficient to provirle for the books most needed for use in connection with the courses given and for general reference work. It also makes possible the acquisition each year of a few of the larger and more expensive sets needed for the more advanced University work. The Library is open daily, except Sunday, from 7: 45 A. M. to 10 P. M., except that on Saturdays it is closed at 6. Books, other than reference books and those especially reserved for use ~3!17 5 THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 33 in the Library, may be drawn for a period of one month, and at the expiration of that time renewed if there is no other demand for them. All persons connected with the University have the privilege of drawing books, and the use of the Library for reference purposes is extended to the general public as well. Books that can be spared from the University are also loarn~d to other libraries, to superintendents and principals of Oregon schools, ap.d to individual citizens of the State. During the year 1916, 783 packages, containing 2,417 items, were sent by mail to out-of-town patrons. The original part of the present Library building was erected in 1907. Its ground dimensions are 80 bv 60 feet. and it includes two stories above a high basement, the construction material being of pressed brick and stone and the interior wood finish the Oregon fir. It includes a general reading, reference and periodical room, cataloging rooms, librarian's office, a newspaper room, an unpacking room, storage space for duplicates, and besides eight rooms now being used for recitation or seminar purposes. The stack room, erected in 1914, has. an ultimate book capacity of from 125,000 to 150,000 volumes on five floors, tho three stories only of the stacks have as yet been installed. THE UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS The University museums are three in number, as follows: THE CONDON GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM The geological collections occupy quarters in the new Admin­ istration Building and comprise the Condon Geological Museum. For a more complete statement about the Museum and descrip­ tion of the collections, see Bulletin No. 3, Vo_l. I (New Series), University of Oregon Publications. Copies may be obtained from the Registrar. (1) The Condon cabinet consists of many thousand speci­ mens, and represents the life work of the late Dr. Thomas Condon. The cabinet is especially rich in vertebrate fossils from the John Day Valley, and contains in addition inany invertebrates and paleo-botanical specimens. This cabinet is perhaps the finest collection of paleontological specimens in the Pacific Northwest. ( 2) A display collection of minerals. This is a growing col­ lection of especially fine minerals. (3) A type collection of minerals. A collection of about 1,500 min eral specimens representative of the ordinary occurrence of the different minerals. ( 4) A collection of Oregon economic minerals. ( 5) A type collection of rocks, etc. This contains, besides the United States Geological Survey educational series of rocks, a collection from type localities in the Lake Superior iron-bearing and copper-bearing districts illustrating some of the oldest for­ mations on the continent; also a collection of typical specimens from the Philippine Islands. Besides these are many isolated specimens from various and remote parts of the world. (6) The H. A. M. Lawrie Loan collection of Krantz rocks and Wilke minerals, containing over 500 European rock types and about the same number of superb minerals from all parts of the world. ( 7) An ethnological collection of tools and implements used by early man. THE UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS 35 In the collection is also a cast of the Willamette meteorite, the gift of Mr. D. A. Patullo, of Portland. The original meteorite was found 2 ½ miles west of Oregon City. Its dimensions are: Extreme length, 10 feet 3 ½ inches; breadth, 7 feet; height, 4 feet; estimated weight, 12 to 15 tons. It is now in the American Museum of Natural History, New York city. The museum, through Dr. E. 0. Hovey, is said to have paid $20,000 for this meteorite. BOTANICAL The botanical museum consists of the following: (1) The Howell collection, consisting of 10,000 specimens, collected for the most part in Oregon, many of which are type specimens; (2) the Leiberg collection, presented to the University by Mr. John B. Leiberg in 1908, consisting .of 15,000 sheets of specimens, collected principally from Oregon, Washington and Idaho, but including also some from, other states. The specimens are for the most part duplicates of others deposited in the National Herbarium at Washington by Mr. Leiberg for the Government while he was in its em.ploy, and are extremely valuable; (3) the Cusick collection, consisting of 7,000 specimens of Oregon and other flora; and the Edmund P. Sheldon collection, recently acquired by donation. These collections are being constantly added to by gift and exchange. All specimens not already classi­ fied are being classified and arranged in cases as rapidly a.i;; possible. 36 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON ZOOLOGICAL MUSEUM The Zoological Museum is located on the _third floor of Deady Hall, where ample room is given for the exhibition cases. It contains a fine series of mounted and unmounted birds and mammals, to illustrate diffi.erent groups; a collection of Oregon reptiles, made by Mr. J. R. Wetherbee; a series of fish, mostly salmonidae from the Columbia River, donated . by the United States Government; a collection of food fishes of the Oregon Coast, made by Mr. B. J . Bretherton, of Newport, Oregon, and presented to the University. It is further supplied with an excellent series of invertebrate animals, models of types from France and Germany. To thiq may be added casts of brains and head formations of various races, and a particularly fine series of wax models made from drawing£ by His in Zeigler's ' laboratory at Freiburg, illustrating different stages in the development of the human embryo and that of the chick; also a similar series showing the devlopment of amphioxus, different forms of segmentation, etc. THE UNIVERSITY LABORATORIES GEOLOGY Mineralogy. The laboratory is equipped for work in descrip­ tive and determinative mineralogy and crystallography, and contains the following mineral collections: ( 1) A display set of minerals. ( 2) The Wilke collection of world minerals, loaned by H. 1\1. f,awrie. ( 3) A labeled set of working material. ( 4) An unlabeled working set, together with a quantity of unlabeled working material. (5) A ~et of Penfield's Wooden Crystal Models. Petrology. A working collection of hand specimens of rock is examdned and identified by each student. The department also maintains apparatus for grinding thin sections of rock1-, and is equipped with petrographical microscopes and the Krantz ·,collection of rocks and thin sections. Physiography. Equipment for making relief maps has been added, as well as numerous charts and models for the illustra­ tion of physical features. Paleontology. The laboratory is especially well equipped for -studying the paleontology of Oregon, and is rapidly adding a comprehensive working collection of the fossils of all geologic :ages. Economic Geology. The department is well equipped with minerals and ores for introductory work in this subject. A completE1 equipment for field geology has been added, including transits, plane tables, hypsometers, compasses, levels, etc., for instruction in every phase of topo,graphical and geological mapping. CHEMISTRY • The chemical laboratories are located in McClure Hall. Al! of the first floor and portions of the basement and second floor­ are devoted to chemistry. In the basement is the beginner'3 1aboratory, which will acmommodate 100 students. The desks are provided with water, gas and electricity. On one side is 38 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON a bank of · hoods with very efficient draught. The hoods are $Upplied with water, gas, waste and hydrogen sulphide connec­ tions. Immediately adjacent to this laboratory is a dark room, also the departmental office. On the first floor is the laboratory for analytical chemistry with 64 lockers, equipped in all respects as the one just described with the addition of an electrically heated drying oven and steam bath. Opening from this room are the instructor's office and private laboratory. Adjoining the analytical laboratory is the general supply room. Across the hall is the lecture room, a comfortable room with inclined floor, having a seating capacity of about 120. Here also are cases containing a collection of organic and inorganic chemical specimens for illustrating the class work. Back of the lecture room is a private laboratory. On the third floor is loca,ted the organic laboratory; also the work shop. Distilled water is supplied to all laboratories thru block tin pipes. Alternating and direct current is available at all hour3; the latter being supplied by a motor-generator set installed in the building. Heavy and inflammable chemicals are stored in an annex adjacent to the main building. The effort is made to keep the store room supplied with apparatus and chemicals to meet the requirements of the usual laboratory courses as well as to provide facilities for original investigation. A few reference books and periodicals belonging to the department are kept in the main office, and students are encouraged to make free use of these facilities. The bulk of tl1e chemical periodicals and treatises , however, are to be found in the University library. PSYCHOLOGY The Psychological laboratory is now well equipped for prac­ tice or advanced work. It consists of a suite of nine rooms, in addition to the lecture rooni, in McClure Hall. All of the rooms are connected by an intercommunicating system of wires and speaking tubes, so that isolation of students for delicate work if, easily accomplished; and all are supplied with gas, compressed THE UNIVERSITY LABORATORIES 39 air and power circuits. One of the rooms is commodious enough for seminary and small class purposes, and another can he readily made absolutely dark for adaptation purposes. The laboratory has a considerable store of the more simple apparatus and some of the more complex pieces. Each year additions are made of the best modern construction. For demonstrational work in connection with the course in general psychology, experimental psychology, and mental hygiene and for laboratory practice the equipment of apparatus is already good, making it J)ossible to illustrate and reproduce the principal methods of experimental study of the sensations, attention, emotional expres­ ~ion, fatigue, reaction times, etc. PHYSICS The physical laboratories, located on the first and second floors of Deady Hall, have been recently remodelled for tl18 special use of the department. The laboratories for elementary and general work on the second floor furnish accommodations for workers in large sections. They include special dark rooms for photometry and photography. The equipment is very com­ plete, including among others apparatus for the study of accel­ e_rated motion, of harmonic motion, and of central forces; ther­ mometers of a wide range of sensi,tiveness, calorimeters for precision work, combustion calorimeters, and the Puluj apparatus for determining the mechanical . equivalent of heat; lenses, laboratory telescopes, photographic cameras, spectroscopes, spec­ trometers, and an unusual collection of prisms and diffraction gratings, photometers, polarimeters, a Michelson interferometer, galvanometers, resistance boxes, ammeters and voltmeters, and a large electro-magnet. This equipment is supplemented by the collection of lecture-room apparatus, which is especially rich in the departments of light, electricity and magnetism. There is also a very complete collection of apparatus for elementary work, available to those who are preparing to teach in the high schools. The special laboratories for advanced work are located on the first floor, and are provided with concrete piers for apparatus requiring unusual stability, and with storage battery, 110-volt .. .. . - -- .......... ····-·-~- - .. ------ 40 UNIVERSITY OF OREGON direct current, and alternating current of several potentials, and a system ·of distributing circuits. The special electrical labora­ tory has a notable equipment for electrical measurements, in­ cluding resistances, standard capacities and inductances, poten­ tiometers, and galvanometers from the Leeds & Northrup Co.; ammeters and voltmeters from the Americ:1n Instrument Co., from the Keystone Electrical Instrument Co., and from tl1e Weston Electrical Instrument Co.; wattmeters and dynamo­ meters, a standard ohm by Otto Wolf, Weston Standard -cells , including some which have been compared with those of the National Bureau of Standards, precision photometers , standard­ ized incandescent lamps, and the usual accessories of switches, commutators and electric motors. A high potential storage bat ­ tery of 4,000 volts, high potential transformers and other· equip­ ment furnish opportunity for experimental work with electric waves and wireless telegraphy. The department is provided with X-ray tubes , electrometers and other equipment for the. study of r-adio activity. A large dark room on this floor is available for this work and for precision photometry. BOTANY The Botanical department occupies the fourth floor of Deady Hall. The laboratory .for the general botany classes has th e regular equipment of work tables, lockers , and compound micro­ scopes, as well as provision for the displaying of stereopticon illustrations and charts. Thi·s, as are all the other rooms. is furnished with gas and lighted with electricity. The depart­ ment possesses a fine series of botanical models of flower type,; ;ind insectivorous plants . The supply of preserved material is constantly being added to and is fairly representative of the various plant groups. Each student is expected to provide him­ &elf with dissecting set and drawing material , but the laboratory is prepared to furnish the necessary microscopical slides, reagents and glassware. The collections of Mr. Howell, Mr. Leiberg, Mr. Cusick and Mr. Sheldon are available for students of systematic bot:rny. Facilities are provided for the study of preservation of loc:1I material and for cataloging of plants sent from various parts 'fHE UNIVERSITY LABORATORIES 41 of the State, and the department will be glad to name any speci­ men that may be sent to the herbarium for determination. The Bacteriological laboratory is well equipped for work, with its gas-fitted work tables and lockers combined, its autoclave, steam and hot-air sterilizers, incubator, hot water heater and compound microscopes with oil-immersion lenses. ZOOLOGY The laboratories of the Zoology department occupy the third floor of Deady Hall. A large, roomy laboratory with north exposure is provided for the work in General Zoology. Each student has:t the use of a compound microscope and is provided with a locker for instruments and note books. Another large laboratory, also on the north side of th•::> 1:iuilding, is used for Histology and Embryology. The apparatns and fittings in this room have been selected with the idea of making the w'ork of each student as independent as possible. Each student is provided with a locker containing all n ec:s::;ary reagents and stains for making microscopic slides. The paraffin ovens are so arranged that each student has his own com.part ment, thus allowing experiments and special work to be carried on without interference. The laboratory is supplied with a large number of microscopic slides to supplement the work of the student and to illustrate special methods. The equipment for work in Embryology is very complete. Besides a good collection of chick and pig embryos, the labora­ tory has a number of models illustrating the development of echinoderms, amphioxus, the frog, chick, pig and man. On the south side of the third floor is the Anatomy laboratory. It is well provided with a large amount of working material for dissection, as well as a good series of skulls and skeletons illustrative of the various classes of vertebrates. Work in Human Osteology is· provided for by a number o~ human skulls and skeletons, both articulated and disarticulated. The Physiology laboratory, also on the south side, is well supplied with electrical connections, digestive ovens and water baths. There is also good equipment for experiments on muscle, nervous tissue, circulation and respiration, by which many of the laws of physiology can be worked out.

EXCEHS MATRICULATION CREDIT Students who bring from accredited preparatory school~ credits in excess of the 1 equirements for matriculation mur-;t pass an examination at the University in the subjects covered by such credits before these may be counted as cancelin~ • o,ny part of the 1?.4 semester hours required for graduation, but i.n no case shall the amount of college credit so allowed exceed 60 per cent of the number of hours such su oject or subject3 . covered in the preparatory school. The preparatory subjects in which advanced credits may be so earned are as follows; Latin,---Ge-r-ma-n,------Pr-e-n-eh,---Greek, Higher Algebra, and Trigon­ ometry. All examinations for such credit must be taken before the student has earned 60 semester hours of credit in the University. EXAMINATION IN ENGLISH Every studen,t upon entering the lower di1vision of tlle University shall take a three:hour examination in written or oral English. Upon the basis of this examination, the upper third of the students shall be excused from required work in Freshman Composition; the remaining two-thirds must complete the prescri.bed course in English Composition, given three times a week thruout the first semester. At the end of the first ADMISSION TO THE UNIVERSITY 45 semester, the upper half of the remainder shall be excused from further work in Freshman Composition, and the lower half _must (·omplete the prescribed course in English Composition, given three timies a week thruout the second semester. No student will be passed whose work shows serious defects fa spelling, punctuation, grammar, and structure of sentences .and paragraphs, or who presents illegible or untidy manuscript. As preparation for satisfactory work in the University con­ stant and regular practice in writing is earnestly recommended. 1.'hruout the four years of the high school course the student. ~hould write exercises and revise them after correction by the teacher, so as to secure accuracy and self-reliance. The subjects upon which the student writes should be drawn from both literature and daily life and experience, and some degree of ~-bility should be secured in each of the types of discourse; description, narration, exposition, and argument. The funda­ mental principles of grammar should be mastered in theory and in practice. Such principles of rhetoric as are adapted to the student's practical use should be emphasized; principles tlrnt make his speech and writing definite and effective, such as good usage in choice of words, correct sentential structure alld para­ graphing, and outlining of thought. METHODS OF ADMISSION There are two ways of entrance to the University: First, by recommendation from accredited schools without examina­ tion; second, by examination. All students from schools not accredited to the University are subject to examination at' the University. ACCREDITED HIGH SCHOOLS It is the policy of the University to adjust its standard of entrance requirements so as to be in close touch with the schools of the State that do earnest work. and at the same time to protect the scholarship of the University. The State high school course is the basis of the requirements for entrance to the University, and the adoption of the State course at once simplifies the passage of students from high UNIVERSITY OF OREGON schools into the University. Only graduates of high schools having at least two teachers giving full time to high school work and which meet the requirements of standardization ()f the State Board of Education are admitted to the University without examination. The following is the list of schools so standardized for 1916-17: Airli<, Albany Alsea.
