Course in Forestry 



Candidates for the master's degree in forestry are expected in) 

 their last year's work to pass such courses as they may elect with an 

 average standing or grade of B. 



In the past a number of forestry students after four years of 

 college attendance as undergraduates have gone into forestry work 

 either in government or private service for a year before taking the 

 final graduate year. This has proved of such great advantage in 

 broadening the students' horizon and preparing them for a better 

 understanding of the more technical phases of the profession that 

 its encouragement has become an established policy. In the near 

 future it is contemplated making such a year of practical field work 

 between the fourth and fifth college years in forestry a required part 

 of the course. 



Every student is strongly urged to work at some phase of for- 

 estry or allied line during every summer vacation. This will pre- 

 pare him for a better understanding of the more technical work by 

 first seeing its application in the field.
