THE SUMMER QUARTER 
FOR 1914 
The Calendar for 1914.—It is expected that the Summer Quarter will begin 
Monday, June 15, and end Friday, August 28, the Autumn Convocation being held 
on uae afternoon of that day. For further particulars see bulletin which will appear 
in March. 
Limitation of Work, etc.—The student is limited to three minor courses for 
each term, or to three major courses for both terms. In special cases permission 
may be obtained from the deans to pursue an additional course, for which, in the 
case of undergraduate students, a supplementary fee must be paid. Graduate 
and Law students are given larger privileges, and students in the College of Edu- 
cation may add one of the arts without additional fee. 
College Study.—The Summer Quarter is an integral part of the college year. 
Courses taken may be counted toward the Bachelor’s degree as in any other quarter. 
The Summer Quarter may thus be used to supplement work in the other three 
quarters, and so reduce the ordinary four years’ course to three; it may replace 
one of the other quarters taken as vacation; or a sufficient number of summer 
quarters may satisfy all the requirements for the degree. Members of the regular 
teaching staff in every department are in residence. Required courses are regularly 
given, and elective courses are repeated more or less frequently, according to demand. 
Graduate Study.—College professors and school teachers, clergymen, and mem- 
bers of other professions, holding Bachelor’s degrees from accepted colleges, may 
avail themselves of the facilities of the University to pursue advanced studies under 
the guidance of research professors in all the chief departments of investigation. 
Biblical and Theological Study.—The Divinity School offers to professors of 
theology, to theological students, to ministers, to religious workers, and to others 
interested in biblical and theological study, introductory and advanced courses in 
all its departments. 
_ Professional Courses in Law.—Students beginning the study of law, those 
in the midst of their professional studies at Chicago or elsewhere, and practicing 
lawyers are offered work of a thorough and systematic character. 
Courses in Medicine.—College Seniors planning to study medicine, students 
in medical schools, and practitioners will find the summer course in medicine admir- 
ably adapted to their needs. The Summer Quarter is of especial value to students 
who need to review and to make up work. 
Educational Principles and Methods.—The courses of all departments have 
a bearing upon the work of teaching, but the courses of the College of Education 
are peculiarly adapted to the professional needs of teachers, in both primary and 
secondary schools. The work in the various shops affords unusually complete 
instruction in the industrial arts and crafts. 
Public Lectures.—A series of public lectures, concerts, and other forms of 
entertainment is scheduled throughout the Summer Quarter, and affords oppor- 
tunity to students to hear speakers of eminence and artists of distinction. 
Chicago in Summer.—An agreeable summer temperature, spacious parks, 
notable libraries and museums, great industrial plants, typical foreign colonies, a 
number of Settlements, and other significant social institutions make Chicago a 
peculiarly appropriate center for study and investigation.
