GENERAL INFORMATION.

EXAMINATIONS.

The classes in both Schools are examined at the close of each term. These examinations are partly oral and partly written, and have an important bearing upon the standing of the student in his class.

Unexpected examinations at irregular intervals are held at the discretion of each instructor. The object of these examinations is to cultivate the habit of considering the relations of each day's work to what has been done before, and to stimulate effort on the part of each student to gain a comprehensive knowledge of the subjects studied.

At the end of the first and third terms, the examinations of the classes of the Scientific School are held in the presence of the Board of Visitors, who then make their semiannual visits to the institution.

At the end of the third term, each member of the Graduating Class of the Scientific School is required to present a thesis on some scientific subject, a copy of which is written out upon paper suitable for binding and deposited in the College Library.

The final examination of the Graduating Classes is held four weeks before Commencement, from which time they are subject to such duties as are required for their preparation for Commencement.

Students who receive conditions at the June Examina

tions must report at College prepared to be examined upon the whole of each of the subjects on which they have conditions, at 10 A. M. on the Tuesday before College opens, in September.

GRADUATION.

To all members of the Graduating Class of the Classical School, in full standing, the Trustees grant diplomas conferring the Academic degree of Bachelor of Arts.

To all members of the Graduating Class of the Scientific School, in full standing, the Trustees grant diplomas conferring the Academic degree of Bachelor of Science.

To students, in either School, who have satisfactorily pursued special courses of study, a certificate is granted stating the studies pursued and the attainments made.

CLASS HONORS.

The following regulations have been adopted by the Board of Trustees regarding the graduating exercises at Commencement:

1. There shall be three scholarship honors in each section of the Graduating Class, awarded to those students who shall stand first, second and third respectively, in all the required studies of the Classical or Scientific curriculum, provided that in each individual case the student so standing shall rank among the first four in the major subject or subjects of his elective course. A failure on the part of any candidate to fulfill this condition will render the student standing next in grade of general scholarship
