pencils, though not required, will be found helpful in making clear 

 interpretations. The descriptions should be made out in accord- 

 ance with the following scheme : 



Descriptions for Laboratory Reports. 



1. Name of the specimen. 



2. Names of its principal parts. 



3-4. Constituent elements or tissues of each of the main parts and 

 the relation of the parts to one another. 



5. Structures present in the specimen, but not recognized. 



6. Distribution in the body. 



7. Function of the organ and of its principal divisions. 



RECITATIONS. 



There will be a weekly recitation, or quiz, covering the ground 

 of the lectures and the laboratory work. Its purpose is not only that 

 of a weekly examination, but it is also intended to unify the work 

 of the week, bring out the important features and clear up difficult 

 points. Weekly references to the text-book covering the matter for 

 which the student is held responsible will be posted, and under 

 Points for Quiz are given the most important features of the work, 

 which the student will be expected to know. In the weekly exer- 

 cises following, these are left blank and should be filled out from the 

 bulletins posted. 



EXAMINATIONS. 



There will be a written examination at the end of each term, 

 covering the lectures and the laboratory work. In addition there 

 will be a laboratory examination to test the students' ability to recog- 

 nize the different tissues and organs. In the laboratory examina- 

 tion at the end of the fall term, he will be required to recognize the 

 different tissues in the preparations given him. At the end of the 

 winter term, the identification of organs will be expected of him. 

 In addition, at intervals during the year, especially in the last half 

 of the winter term, unlabeled slides will be assigned for study and 

 report. Also unknown tissues may be given from which prepara- 

 tions are to be made and reported on subsequently as called for. 

 These two methods will help the student in the recognition of the 

 different organs and tissues, and also prepare him for the laboratory 

 examinations.
