B. Courses for Teachers 
These courses have been accepted by the Board of Education of 
New York City for “in-service credit,” one credit being granted 
for each 15 hours (with the exception of “ B8, Plant Culture’). 
Through an agreement with Long Island University, undergradu- 
ate credit for certain courses will be allowed toward fulfilling the 
requirements for a university degree, provided the admission re- 
quirements at the University and the laboratory requirements at the 
Botanic Garden have been fulfilled. Such courses are starred (*). 
By special arrangement with the institution concerned, these credits 
have also been used as undergraduate credits in other colleges and 
universities. Nature materials used in the courses, and plants 
raised, become the property of the student. 
Members of the Garden are entitled to a 50 per cent. discount 
from the regular fee for all “B” courses; of other persons 
the indicated fee is required. [Long Island University students 
desirous of electing any of these or of the “A” courses should 
notify Dean Tristram W. Metcalfe or Dr. Ralph H. Cheney, who 
will give the candidate a card entitling him to admission to the 
course. The student should present this card at the beginning of 
the first session of the course.
