COURSES OF INSTRUCTION 
Courses for adults and children are classified in the following 
pages as follows: 
For members and the general public: 
Victory garden courses (“V” courses, p. 215) 
Regular courses (“A” courses, p. 219) 
For teachers (““B” courses, p. 226) 
For children (“C” courses, p. 229) 
For special groups (“D” courses, p. 230) 
Investigation (“IE” courses, p. 231) 
Any course may be withdrawn when less than ten persons apply 
for registration, and no course will be given for less than six 
persons. 
Registration.—Because of the limited space available in the 
instructional greenhouses, and for other reasons, the number of 
persons that can be registered in many of the courses must be 
limited. Those who desire to attend any course are urged to send 
in their applications, with entrance fees, to the Secretary, Brooklyn 
Botanic Garden, several days in advance of the first meeting. This 
avoids delay at the beginning of the first session, ensures a place 
beige 
— 
1e course, and enables the instructor to provide adequate mate- 
rial for the class. 
Persons are requested not to register in any course unless they 
are reasonably confident that they can attend the sessions regularly 
and throughout. This is especially important where the number is 
limited ; for it is obvious that those who register and do not attend 
may deprive someone else of the privilege of attending. 
V and A Courses.—Although these courses are designed 
primarily for Members of the Botanic Garden, they are open (un- 
less otherwise specified) to any one who has a general interest in 
plants. Teachers are welcome. Starred courses (*) are open 
also for credit to students of Long Island University, and are de- 
scribed in the current Long [sland University catalog. In harmony 
with an agreement entered into in the spring of 1935, the Botanic 
Garden, upon recommendation of the Chairman of the Biology 
Department of Long Island University, offers a course scholarship 
to one student of the University. A similar arrangement has been 
made with Brooklyn College. (Cf. p. 219, foot-note. )
