Sir: The liberal arts curricula in the colleges and the universities of the United States have undergone significant changes in recent years. To some extent, these changes have been accentuated by the recent war. At the same time greater attention has been given to the relationships between secondary schools and higher institutions, particularly with respect to college entrance requirements. In order, to facilitate the work of college educators and admin- istrators in formulating curricula leading to the cultural bachelors' degrees, and in making readjustments in college entrance require- ments when necessary, I recommend the publication of the bulletin entitled "Requirements for the Bachelor's Degree," by Dr. Walton C. John, Specialist in charge of Land-Grant College Statistics in the Bureau of Education. Respectfully submitted. P. P. Claxton, Commissioner. The Secretary of the Interior. REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. INTRODUCTION. The following study is based on the analysis of the requirements for the bachelor's degree of 101 universities and colleges in the United States, including Hawaii and Porto Kico. The first chapter contains a brief resume of the history of entrance and college gradu- ation requirements for the bachelor's degree with special reference to the subjects required and the order of their appearance in the curricula. Data and method. — ^The fundamental data have been gathered from the university and college catalogues for the year 1916-17. The catalogue requirements were summarized on preliminary tables. From these summaries have been prepared a series of graphic tables which describe the entrance and the coUege graduation require- ments of each institution; each type of cultural bachelor's degree has been considered. Appendix B shows in graphic form the different entrance and graduation requirements each, for four years, in terms of units, semester hours, and the corresponding percentages of the pre- scribed and elective subjects. The percentages of the prescribed and elective subjects are considered from the standpoint of eight years also. The study of these graphs makes possible a rapid comparison of the salient features of the various bachelor's degrees of the same institution or of different institutions. The various tables and graphs scattered throughout the text are founded on the graphs in Appendix B. Physical training and military drill are not included in the com- parative tables or graphs as relatively few institutions of our list give college credit in these subjects. Method of treating the averages. — ^The tables which give the aver- age requirements for the prescribed subjects are especially designed to show the tendencies for each degree. The general average which is found at the bottom of the table is not an average of the averages but a true average. Thus it is possible to make accurate compari- sons between the tendencies of different degrees and the general average. The negative instances are not counted in the averages of the prescribed subjects, as the result would give a number difficult of direct comparison with individual standards in any given subject. 1 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. Tlie 'problem. — It is the purpose of this study to show the char- acteristic tendencies of both entrance and graduation requirements in the 101 universities and colleges which compose our list. An at- tempt has been made to point out the relations of all the prescribed requirements to the entire period of eight years. The second, third, and fourth chapters contain summaries and conclusions based upon the general discussion. The fourth chapter emphasizes the importance of considering the bachelor's degree course from the standpoint of a single unit of seven or eight years, the general argument bearing on this c^uestion being considered in the closing section on the unification of the bachelor's degree course. lAst of universities and colleges included in this study.

(a) COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. COLONIAL PERIOD. Latin and Greek. — The history of college entrance requirements in the United States begins in 1642, when Harvard College published the following announcement: When any scholar is able to read Tully or such like classical Latin Author extem- pore, and make and speak true Latin in verse and prose (suo (ut aiunt) Marte), without any assistance whatever and decline perfectly the paridigms of nouns and verbs in ye Greek tongue, then may hee bee admitted into ye College, nor shall any claim admission before such qualifications. The foregoing is a translation from the Latin of a part of the college statutes. In the College of William and Mary, Latin and Greek were the only subjects required for entrance at the beginning of its career in 1693, although no definite statement of the requirements is given. As early as 1720, Yale College made the following announcement: Such as are admitted Students into ye Collegiate School shall in their examination in order thereiinto be found expert in both ye Latine and Greek grammars, as also skilful in construing and grammatically resohdng both Latine and Greek authors and in making good and true latin. As time progressed some difficulty was found at Harvard in keeping up that part of the requirement which obliged the candidates to speak Latin. In 1734 this obstacle was removed, and in 1790 the word "translate" was substituted for the word "construe." Yale followed suit in 1795. Arithmetic. — In 1745,, Yale College added common arithmetic to the entrance requirements. At the same time the moral character of the candidates was not overlooked, as is shown by the following : "And shall bring sufficient testimony of his blameless and inoffensive life." Princeton, in 1746, based the entrance standards on the same grounds as those of Harvard and Yale, but did not include arithme- tic until 1760. This subject, however, seems to have dropped out until 1813 when the student was supposed to know the subject as far as the rule of three. 5 6 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. Columbia College, which, began as King's College in 1754, pre- scribed Latin, Greek, and arithmetic for entrance. Both Brown and Williams had essentially the same requirements. Entrance examinations (oral). — During the colonial period most students prepared for college at the Latin-grammar schools which were closely related to the colleges. The examinations were oral and not so strict as might have been expected. THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. Geography. — In 1807, geography and arithmetic were added to the usual requirements at Harvard College, and there is evidence of greater care in stating the terms of admission. The amount of work in each subject was more clearly indicated. Neither was quality overlooked when we find within small compass such expressions as these: ''Thoroughly acquainted with the grammar of the Greek;" "properly construe and parse," etc.; "be well instructed in the following rules of arithmetic;" "have well studied a compendium of geography." Geography found a place as an entrance requirement before 1830 in Princeton, Columbia, Yale, and other colleges. English grammar. — The next preparatory subject introduced was English grammar. Princeton led out with this subject in 1819, being followed by Yale in 1822, Columbia in 1860, and by Harvard in 1866. Algebra and geom,etry. — Harvard was the first college to extend the entrance requirement in mathematics beyond arithmetic. In 1820 elementary algebra was added as far as geometrical progressions. Algebra was prescribed for entrance by Columbia in 1821, by Yale in 1847, and by Princeton in 1848. In 1844 Harvard added geometry and additional topics in algebra. Between 1856 and 1870 geometry was added to the entrance requirements by Yale, Princeton, Michi- gan, and Columbia. History; physical geography. — History was required for entrance by Harvard and Michigan in 1847; by Cornell in 1868. Physical geography was found in the requirements for Harvard and Michigan in 1870. THE MODERN PERIOD. Modern languages. — Harvard College was the first to make French an entrance requirement for the regular college course, although in the early part of the nineteenth century Columbia College had recognized this language as a prerequisite to its courses in science. By 1875, both French and German had equal recognition as entrance subjects at Harvard. Yale added French in 1885, Columbia in 1891, Princeton in 1893, and Cornell in 1897. English composition and rhetoric. — English composition was in- cluded in the entrance requirements of Princeton in 1870, The HISTORICAL SKETCH. / colleges next to add this subject were Harvard in 1874, Michigan in 1878, Columbia and Cornell in 1882, and Yale in 1894. Rhetoric had l3een required by the University of Michigan from 1874 to 1878, while Princeton added the latter subject in 1884. Sciences. — Although Harvard and Michigan had already intro- duced physical geography in 1870, Syracuse University was the first to prescribe natural philosophy. Natural science was added to the requirements by Harvard in 1876, Cornell followed with physi- ology in 1877, and Michigan included natural science and botany in 1890. It is apparent that the order of importance of prescribed entrance subjects has been completely reversed in recent years. Until a few years ago Latin and Greek had always occupied first place, but since 1885 English has gained the ascendancy. Starting out with simple grammar the subject has been developed so as to include composition, rhetoric, and a broad range of study in the best of both English and American literatures. Latin and Greek still have a place in college entrance requirements, but they are seldom required unless it be in combination with modern languages. The present tendency is to consider all languages under one general group; the privilege is then given to the student to make suitable electives in harmony with the specific purpose of the college course. Mathematics is the only entrance subject that in the long run of years has maintained its place. Next to English it appears most frequently on the list of prescribed subjects. Science and history are well established, although they are con- sidered as electives by nearly one-half of the institutions of our list. The most recent development is the growing recognition of a large group of vocational subjects which conimand within certain limits equal credit with the literary subjects. (b) COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS. COLONIAL PERIOD. The establishment of Harvard College on the banks of the Charles in 1636 is the outstanding event in the history of higher education in the United States. As the mother of American colleges and uni- versities. Harvard College has been inseparably connected with the developments of collegiate education that have taken place during the past three centuries. Compared with the present standards of graduation the following requirements, taken from the laws of Dunster (1642), seem very simple indeed: Every scholar that on proof is found able to translate the original of the Old and New Testament into the Latin tongue, and to resolve them logically, and shall be imbued with the beginnings of natural and moral philosophy, withal being of honest life and conversation, and at any public act hath the approbation of the overseers and master of 8 REQITIEEMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. the college, may I^e invested with Ms first degree; but no one will expect this degree unless he shall have passed four years in college and has roaintained therein a blame- less life and has sedulously observed all public exercises. The first year shall teach rhetoric, second and third year dialectics, and the fourth year shall add philosophy * * *. In this course of four years each one shall dis- pute twice in his public schools and' shall respond twice in his own class; which if he performs, and is found worthy after the regular examination, he shall become an A. B.' William and Mary College was founded in 1693, at Williamsburg^ Va., by James Blair, who modeled the curriculum somewhat on the plan of the University of Edinburgh. The principal subjects of study were the classics, Hebrew, philosophy, arithmetic, geography, and anatomy, Yale was established at New Haven, Conn., in 1701. The subjects prescribed for the A. B. degree at that institution were the classics including Tully and Vergil, also logic, physics, Greek, New Testam*ent, and Hebrew. Disputations were held two or three times a week. Princeton College received its charter in 1745 and closely followed the programs of Harvard and Yale. The University of Pennsylvania was a direct offshoot from the College, Academy, and Charitable School of Philadelphia. Franklin was the father of this school and he bore testimony in his early day to the uselessness of Latin and Greek in the educational requirements of the schools. To him foreign lan- guages were but the tools of knowledge, and if the vernacular gave all necessary information, other tools were needless. The course of study at the Philadelphia school was unusually strong in science, and contrary to the desires of the founder, it was equally strong in the classics. Columbia University, founded as King's College in 1754, enlarged the college curriculum and laid the foundation for a very broad course of study. The following summary of college requirements announced by the president in the year 1754 is of special interest: The college aims to instruct and perfect — In the learned languages ; In the art of reasoning correctly; In writing correctly and speaking eloquently; In the arts of numbering and measuring; In surveying and na\'igation : In geography and history ; In husbandry, commerce, and government; In knowledge of all nature in the heavens above us and in the air, water, and earth around us and the various kinds of meteors, stones, mines, and minerals, plants, and animals ; In everything useful for the comfort, the convenience, and elegance of life in the chief manufactures. To lead them [pupils] from the study of nature to the knowledge of themselves and of the God of nature, and their duty to Him, themselves, and one another; And everytliing that can contribute to their true happiness, both here and hereafter.^ 1 Administration of the College Curriculum, by Foster, p. 11. 2 History of Education in the United States, Dexter. HISTORICAL SKETCH. 9 THE REVOLUTIONARY PERIOD, AND FRENCH INFLUENCES (1780 TO 1840). About the time of the Revolutionary War when the influences which gave birth to the Nation were at their height in this country, several important State-supported colleges were founded. These reflected to a considerable extent the French practices of organiza- tion, especially in the States of New York, Georgia, Michigan, Wis- consin, Louisiana, California, and Maryland. The colleges were, in most instances, the centers of the several State systems of education. To a certain extent the elective system, as we now understand it, was attributed to French influences. Jeffer- son in reorganizing education in Virginia showed the result of his contact with the newer ideas which have made a lasting impression on higher education in this country. The curriculum of the Univer- sity of Virginia, as adopted in 1824, is, doubtless, next to the founding of Harvard College, the most significant event in the history of Ameri- can college education. George Ticknor, who was called to the chair of languages at Harvard College in 1817, urged radical changes in the administration of the curriculum on accepting his post, and he sponsored not only the elective system but urged the organization of departments with separate heads. About the middle of the nineteenth century President Wayland, of Brown University, was successful in broadening the scope of the college curriculum. He stood also for a better quality of instruction. Meanwhile the sciences, chemistry in particular, were finding a permanent place in college requirements, having appeared first at Yale and Harvard shortly after the year 1800. Mathematics was being developed under the influence of the great French mathe- maticians. Political economy was first taught at Harvard in, 1820, and Yale, Columbia, Dartmouth, Princeton, and Williams all added this subject within 15 years. The first chair of history was founded by William and Mary in 1822 and Harvard foUowed suit in 1839. While French had been a side issue in some of the colleges, Bowdoin established a chair of modern languages, under H. W. Longfellow, in 1825. In the same year German was added to the course at Harvard. It was also taught at the University of Virginia. THE CIVIL WAR. The Civil War gave a setback to several of the old State institu- tions which had arisen under the national movement. But at the same time a very important movement in higher education was launched by Senator Morrill, of Vermont, who was father of the principal enabling acts of the land-grant coUeges.^ ' These colleges 1 Jonathan B. Turner, of Jacksonville, IlL, also took an active part in the development of this legislation. 10 KEQUIREMENTS FOE THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. were not only to give a liberal education in the arts and sciences, but were especially devoted to developing agricultural and engineering education of a high order. The States were not slow in complying with the conditions of the Morrill and subsequent acts, so to-day we find 68 land-grant colleges in successful operation all over the United States. GERMAN INFLUENCE. The influence of the German universities on a small group of prominent American thinkei's and educators before the outbreak of the Civil War led to the further development of the principle of freedom of election of college studies. President Eliot, of Harvard, in the year 1869, led out in this movement which has with little re- sistance spread over the United States. Some reaction to extreme views on this question has been manifest, the present tendency being to safeguard the student's work by a more restricted plan of election which will insure the most profitable combination of studies. ler II. COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. DEFINITION AND FUNCTION. College entrance requirements cover conditions of age, physical fitness, moral integrity, and intellectual attainment. In our list, 24 State schools (45 per cent) and 8 of the endowed schools (16 per cent) specify the minimum age limits for entrance as follo"^s: State Institutions: Fifte&n years-^JJuiveTsity oi Alahama.; sixteen years — Univer- sity of Arizona, University of California, University of Colorado, Delaware College, University of Florida, University of Idaho, University of Illinois, State University of Iowa, Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College, University of Maine, University of Michigan, University of Mississippi, Univer- sity of Montana, Rutgers College (N. J.), Cornell University (N. Y.), University of Oklahoma, University of South Carolina, University of Tennessee, University of Texas, University of Virginia, College of "William and Mary (Va.), University of Ver- mont and State Agricultural College, West Virginia University. Endowed Institutions: Fifteen years — Randolph-Macon College (Va.); sixteen years — Colgate University (N. Y.), Leland Stanford Junior University (Calif.), Univer- sity of the South (Tenn.), Vanderbilt University (Tenn.), Union University (N. Y.), Tulane University of Louisiana; seventeen years — Catholic University of America (D. C). Certificates of moral character or honorable dismissal are, accord- ing to the catalogues, required by 23 State (44.9 per cent) and 29 endowed institutions (58 per cent). Approximately one-half of the institutions neither specify the age limits for entrance nor require any formal statement respecting the moral integrity of the entrant. This may be explained by the fact that the majority of students come from accredited high schools. Graduation from these schools implies that the age and moral char- acter of the student are satisfactory until shown to the contrary. A century ago there was evidently more reason for publishing these requirements than to-day, as most of the candidates for college were much younger and were looking forward to the ministry as a profession. The physical condition of the student is inquired into by a number of institutions. Arizona and California definitely require a physical examination for entrance, also Columbia, Goucher, Leland Stan- ford, Smith, Wellesley, and Wells. The question of physical exami- 169494°— 20 2 11 12 REQUIEEMEISrTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. nation, however, is generally considered a part of the prescribed college work in physical training rather than of entrance require- ments.^ The University of Arizona requires that — All new students at the time of registration shall su1)mit a statement signed by a repu- table physician, certifying to the good health or to such disability as will in any way affect the student's university work or Ms membersliip in the university.^ Tiie Universit}' of California states that "Applicants must also appear before the university medical exammers and pass a satisfac- tory physical examination, to the end that the health of the univer- sity community may be safeguarded."^ The study of the statistics of the infirmary of the University of California shows the scope of the medical examinations of entrants, both men and women. It is evident that these examinations are of great importance both to the student and to the university. (See Appendix A, p. 249.) The University of Texas requires a certificate of vaccination for entrance. "Each applicant for admission must present a certificate, signed hj a physician, that he has had smallpox or has been success- full}^ vaccinated."* Goucher College requires "a physician's certificate that their health is not such as to interfere with their college work."^ Leland Stanford University announces that — Every student upon entering the university is rec^uired to report for a brief exami- nation. General health and vaccination are the important factors in the examination. Any condition which may place a limitation on the amount or kind or work planned by the student may be discussed with him or made the subject of a report to his major department or to the committee on registration. Witliin three weeks after the day of registration eveiy student must file with the committee on public health a certificate, signed by the vaccinator, who must be a duly licensed and practicing physician, giving exact dates of vaccination, and showing either successful vaccination within seven yeara, or unsuccessful \-accination twice within the past twelve months. Noncompliance with these requirements will result in a fine of $2 after three weeks, and an additional fine of $4 after five weeks, and cancellation of registration after seven weeks from the day of registration.^ Smith College says: All candidates are expected to present satisfactory testimonials regarding their moral character and -physical fitness for a college course. The college reserves the light at any time to cancel the registration of a student who in maturity of character or in physical strength -seems unequal to the demands of college life.' ' See Appendix A for the discussion ofrequirements in physical training. 2 University of Arizona Record, 1915-16, p. 49. ' University of Calif.

COLLEGE EFTEANCE EEQUIEEMEHTS. 13 Columbia College, in addition to other requii'ements, demands that ''a certificate of health must be presented."^ Wellesley College makes the following requirement: A statement from the applicant's physician to the effect that she is organically sound and in good health, together with a certificate of successful vaccination within five years, must be filed mth the board of admission before June 1 of the year in which admission is sought. No candidate can be regarded as finally accepted until she has been given a thorough physical examination by the college medical staff. The college reserves the right to reject any candidate if the results of this examination, in the opinion of the medical staff, justify such action; or to accept the candidate only on the understanding that she will take five years to complete the course.^ A report of the physical director states that before this ruling was made — there were at least 50 girls in the entering class of 450 who were in very bad condi- tion — a number of serious cases of heart disease among them. After the requirement was made the number was materially lessened . If the physician's certificate states conditions that are suspicious, we take the matter up and may prevent a girl from coming.^ In Wells College ^'a medical examination blank is sent to each new student. It must be filled out by the family physician and presented- by the student herself to the director of physical education directly after entering college."^ INTELLECTUAL REQUIREMENTS. The intellectual prescriptions are usually satisfied by the com- pletion of a recognized course of secondary school subjects. Many institutions further satisfy themselves as to the quality as well as the quantity of work done by the candidate, in order to eliminate those who wiU not receive benefit or be of benefit to the coUege. METHOD OF ENTRANCE. The means of satisfying the entrance requirements on the academic side announced by the schools in our list are as follows: 1. Examination of the student in all the specified entrance sub- jects at the college or university itself. 2. Examination in the specified entrance requirements elsewhere than the college or university, under the direction of an approved examining board such as the college entrance examination board, and the New York State Board of Regents. 3. The presentation of certificates from properly accredited second- ary schools, such as are approved or accredited by the North Cen- tral Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and other similar accrediting organizations. 1 Columbia College Announcement, 1916-17, p. 10. 2 Wellesley College Bulletin, 1916-17, p. 27. 3 Record Aids in College Management by Allen, p. 10. 'Wells College Bulletin, 1916-17 ^p. 75. 14 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. 4. Part certitication and part examination. 5. Presentation of diploma from a standard normal school. 6. Presentation of diploma from an approved high school. 7. Presentation of a State teacher's certificate of the proper grade. 8. Comprehensive examinations. "The essential featm'e of the plan is that it combines the certificate and examination methods of admission. The candidate presents a certificate from the secondary- school testifying to the quantity of work covered. The college takes a sample of the quality by examining him in four subjects. The examination is designed to test the candidate's general knowledge of a given subject and his intellectual power, not to ascertain whether he has mastered a prescribed book or course." ^ 9. Under special circumstances an entrant of sufficient age and experience may be allowed to do regular college work on probation. If successful, he may be allowed to graduate. Harvard University- permits such students to proceed in the regular college studies but instead of giving the degree of bachelor of arts, grants the special degree of associate in arts. Such graduates may, if properly pre- pared, obtain the master's degree in one year. With the exception of Leland Stanford, which announces that no examinations for entrance are conducted at the university, all the schools on our list conduct extrance examinations of their own. Only 10 State schools announce that they accept the examinations of the college entrance examination board: California, Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Rutgers, Ohio State, Pennsylvania State College, and Vermont; but the endowed schools take much greater advantage of these examinations, there being only 15 insti- tutions wliich do not announce them. These schools are as follows: Beloit, Baker, Carleton, Colorado, De Pauw, Earlham, Grinnell, Muhlenburg, Oberlin, Randolph-Macon, Trinity, Tulane, Vander- bilt, Washington (St Louis), and Washington and Lee. Six State schools and 16 endowed schools announce that they accept, subject to certain limitations, the certificates of the New York State Board of Regents. They are Georgia, Illinois, Cornell, New York, Rutgers, and Ohio State; and Amherst, Browii, Colgate, Columbia, Dartmouth, Hamilton, New York, Pennsylvania, Smith, Syracuse, Tufts, Union, Vassar, Wells, Wesleyan, and Williams. The certificates of accredited, approved, or commissioned second- ary schools are accepted by ^11 institutions, both State and endowed, with the exception of Bryn Mawr, Columbia, Harvard, Haverford, and Yale. Iowa, Haverford, and Tufts announce the plan of part certification and part examination. iKeport of the Commissioner of Education, 1916, p. 130. COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. 15 Taking the catalogues of 1916-17 as a basis, no State institution has announced the adoption of the "comprehensive plan of exami- nation," but 10 endowed schools have made provision for this type of entrance examination. These institutions are Columbia, Goucher, Harvard, Haverford, Princeton, Smith, Vassar, Wellesley, Wells, and Yale. Nine State schools accept the graduates of standard normal schools, either from within or without the State. The schools accepting appropriate normal school diplomas for entrance, including advanced standing, are: Arizona, California, Georgia, Illinois, Min- nesota, Missouri, Ohio State, Texas, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The acceptance of the diplomas of approved normal schools is not mentioned by the endowed colleges, with the exception of Teachers College, George Washington University. Three State institutions, California, Indiana, and Louisiana, admit certain students on the presentation of an appropriate State certificate; the only endowed school off ering this plan is De Pauw University, THE ENTRANCE UNIT. The following definition of a "unit" is subscribed to by both the State institutions and the endowed institutions under discussion: A unit represents a year's study in any subject in a secondary school, constituting approximately a.quarter of a full year's work. This statement is designed to afford a sta^ndard of measurement for the work done in secondary schools. It takes the four-year high school course as a basis and assumes that the length of the school year is from 36 to 40 weeks, that a period is from 40 to 60 minutes in length, and that the study is pursued for four or five periods a week; but under ordinary circumstances, a satisfactory year's work can not be accomplished in less than 120 sixty-minute hours or their equivalent. Schools organized on a differ- ent basis can nevertheless estimate their work in terms of this unit.^ Two hom's of manual training or laboratory work are generally assumed to be equiva- lent to one horn' of classroom work.^ Two institutions, Indiana and DePauw Universities, recognize a year of 32 weeks. De Pauw gives extra credit for the year of 36 weeks. Other names and values of tlie "unit." — The following terms — ■ "credit," "semester unit," and "point," — are used by several State institutions instead of unit to signify the basic term of entrance credit. 1 . In the University of Arizona a credit is equivalent to the standard unit as defined above. 1 CoDege Entrance Requirements, by Clarence D. Kingsley. Bulletin, United States Bureau of Educa- tion, 1913. 16 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. 2. In the University of California unit is used, but is equivalent to only one-third of the standard unit. 3. In Rutgers College a point means the same as ''unit." 4. In the University of Nebraska a point is equivalent to a half unit. 5. In the State College of Washington a credit means a half unit. Four endowed schools — ^Amherst, Bryn Mawr, Muhlenburg, and WeUesley — use point instead of unit. In each case a point is equiva- lent to the standard unit. CONDITIONAL ENTRANCE. The following summary shows how conditional entrance is treated by the institutions in question: SUMMARY. State Institutions: Fifteen units required, 1 unit conditioned — Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, North Dakota, Miami, Oklahoma, Washington State College, and Wyoming; 14 rinits required, 2 units conditioned — Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, William and Mary; 15 units required, 2 units conditioned — Arizona, Howard, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, Nebraska, Rutgers, New Mexico, Ohio State, Utah, and West Virginia; 16 units required, 2 units conditioned — Florida, Georgia; scJiools tvhich per- mit conditions but do not definitely state the number — California, Indiana, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Oregon, and Vermont; schools which definitely prohibit conditioned entrance— Illinois. Endowed Instttutions: Fcnirteen units required, 1 unit conditioned — Trinity College; 14^ units required, 1 unit conditioned — Hamilton; 15 units required, 1 unit conditioned — Baker, Colorado College, Grinnell, Northwestern, Oberlin, Syracuse, Washington (St. Louis); 14 units required, 2 units conditioned — Randolph-Macon, University of the South, Vanderbilt; 15 units required, 2 units conditioned — Pitts- burg, Tulane, Washington and Lee; 14 units required, 2\ units conditioned — Amherst; 14h units required, 2\ units conditioned — Dartmouth; 15 units required, 3 units condi- tioned — ^Wellesley; 20 units required, 5 units conditioned — Bryn Mawr; schools which permit conditions but do not definitely state the number — Columbia, Harvard, Haver- ford, Princeton, Western Reserve; schools which definitely prohibit conditional entrance — Chicago, Leland Stanford. According to the summary it is evident that 2 units is the more common allowance for conditioned entrance. The lowest entrance requirements, if conditions are accepted, are found at Amherst, 14 — 2^, or Hi units; Dartmouth, 141 — 2^, or 12 units; also a large group of institutions of the South — Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, William and Mary, Randolph- Macon, University of the South, Vanderbilt, besides Delaware and WeUesley— reduce their entrance requirements to 12 units by means of conditions. The practice of giving conditional admittance on 10 units no longer exists in any school contained in om* list COLLEGE EISTTEANCE EEQUIEEMENTS. 17 ALLOWANCE FOR QUALITY IN ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. Colgate University, which normally requii^es 15 units for admis- sion, |)rovides that '^an average of 85 per cent or more during the preparatory course may count as 1 unit, making only 14 units required." ^ ALLOWANCE FOR QUANTITY IN ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. De Pauw University ^ announces that 16 units of admission is based on a minimum of a unit of 32 weeks to a school year. If a preparatory school offers a unit of 36 weeks, 1 unit of the 16 required is dropped from the electives. TYPES OF ENTRANCE UNITS (PRESCRIBED). The prescribed units may be classified as follows: (a) Specific course; (b) subject (course unspecified); (c) degree group, core group. The specific course type of unit is represented by any single pre- scribed subject, as English composition or algebra. These subjects usually admit of no substitutions within the groups to which they belong. The subject requirement may be represented hj foreign language, science, or social science. Here the group idea is more dominant than any specific course \\dthin the group. First-year Spanish may be equivalent to first-year French or to first-year Latin as a pre- scribed unit in foreign language. American history, ancient history, civics, azicl even eiem.entary economics may be options in the group subject called social science. . By the degree group is meant a group of subjects prescribed for entrance to a course leading to a specific degree. Thus, the Uni- versity of Arizona ^ requires for entrance to the A. B. curriculum 3 units each of English, mathematics, a.nd Latin, but for entrance to the B. S. curriculum 3 units each of only English and mathe- matics. In Delaware Coliege '^ the entrance group for the A. B. includes with other subjects Greek or Latin and a modern language, but in the B. S. group Greek and Latin are omitted. The core group is essentially the same as the degree group, but all core groups prepare for a single degree, or for the corresponding college core group requirements of a single degree. For example, in Trinity College the group which leads to course A of the college requirement includes English, Latin, and Greek, history, and mathe- matics, while the group leading to com-se B permits the substitution of Latin by French and German. There is also a greater freedom of election in the entrance group leading to course B. 1 Catalogue of Colgate University, 1916-17. ^ Catalogue of tlie University of Arizona, 1916-17.. « Catalogue of De Pauw University, 1916-17. < Catalogue of Delaware College, 1916-17. 18 EEQUIKEMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR 's DEGREE. THE PRESCRIBED ENTRANCE SUBJECTS— NUMBER AND NAMES. The institutions under discussion prescribe, in general, six subjects or group subjects, namely, English, foreign language, mathematics science, social science (history, civics, etc.), and industries. The latter subject is required for entrance by the University of Porto Rico only, leaving five subjects and their groups to show the scope of prescribed work in the United States proper. The following summaries and observations, based upon the maxi- mum and minimum tables, give the number of units prescribed in each subject according to the type of bachelor's degree sought. The percentage of time required for each subject compared mth the total number of entrance units prescribed is also given. Table 1. — Entrance requirements in English for the bachelor's degree.

The ac- companying table shows that for the A. B. degree, 14 of the 42 State schools (33.33 per cent) and 26 of the 46 endowed schools (56.5 per cent) prescribed ancient language (Latin and Greek) singly or in combination with foreign or modern language. Latin alone is a requirement in 4 State and 5 endowed schools, as follows: Ala- bama, 4 units; Florida, 2 units; Pennsylvania State College, 4 units; William and Mary, 3 units; Bowdoin, 3 units; Dartmouth, 4 units; University of the South, 4 units; Tulane, 3 units; Wellesley, 4 units. Greek is not prescribed alone but is usually combined or optional with Latin or a modern language, Greek is required for the A. B, degree, in combination or as an option, in 5 State and 18 endowed schools. The usual requirements in Greek are 2 or 3 units. The combination of Latin with a foreign or modern language is found in over twice as many schools as Latin; this combination is 1 2 different courses. OOLiLEGE EISTTEANCE EEQUIEEMENTS. 29 witli one exception the only one required for tlie B. S., Ph. B., and Litt. B. degrees in the schools prescribing ancient language. It will be observed that of the nine institutions prescribing Latin only, five are southern and four are from New England, or from the East, and of the entire group only fiv« institutions are from the central or western parts of the United States.

S. degree, but is required by all other institutions. Mathematics is not prescribed by Mississippi or Arkansas for the bachelor's degree in education, neither is it prescribed by Chicago or Columbia of the endowed schools. Mathematics is not required by Chicago for the Ph. B. degree, but is required for entrance to the Ph. B. and Litt. B. course in all other cases. Next to English mathematics is the most generally prescribed entrance subject, but the standard is more variable.

That is true for the A. B. and B. S. degrees. For the B. Ed. degree, however, the endowed schools are more flexible than the State schools in this respect.

B. courses nearly one- third of the 50 State universities require 14 units, while only 4 of the 50 endowed schools require this number. On the other hand, nearly one- third of the 50 endowed schools prescribe 14^ units while only two State institutions make a similar requirement. The tendencies shown for the A. B. degree are correspondingly true for the B. S. degree of State and endowed schools. While 14 units are required for entrance by nearly a fourth of the State schools for the degrees in education, yet 15 units is the domi- nant requirement in both State and endowed schools. The Ph. B. and Litt. B. degrees show little deviation from 14| or 15 units. Table 17. — Total entrance requirements. Degree. A. B. (State) A. B. (endowed)-.. B.S. (State) B. S. (endowed) B.Ed. (State) B. Ed.

THE ELECTIVES OF COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. ■ Types of elective units . — Entrance electives may be classified as follows: (a) Free electives; (h) semielectives or restricted electives; and (c) group, or degree electives. The free electives are usually chosen without serious restrictions from an approved list of secondary school subjects. Some guidance in making the electives may be expected from the professor or the department to which the subject" belongs in order to insure proper distribution and concentration. The semielective is chosen from a more limited number of subjects, usually two or three. In this discussion the term ''optional" refers to a choice between two or more courses of the same type or group, as between French and German or American history and civil gov- ernment, while the semielective refers to a choice between entirely different subjects, as between language and science or English and mathematics. The latter type of elective serves the purpose of distribution and concentration with respect to different college curricula. The following institutions offer semielectives as part of the entrance requirements: Idaho, Indiana, Rutgers (N. J.), Baker, Brown, Carleton, Columbia, Haverford, Leland Stanford, Tulane, Vanderbilt, and Vassar. Semielectives {State institutions). — 1. The University of Idaho states that " additional academic units must be added to any of the above — i. e., English, foreign language, history, science, mathe- matics — except English, so as to afford at least one subject besides English, which totals 3 units." (Concentration.) ^ 2. The University of Indiana prescribes "two additional units to be chosen from the above-mentioned subjects." (English, foreign language, history, science, mathematics.) (Concentration.) 3. Rutgers College (N. J.) allows the student to substitute one unit of science for one of the two i)rescribed units of history. (Dis- tribution.) ^ Semielectives {endowed institutions) . — 1 . Baker University requires a semielective to be chosen from groups 1 to 5 to the extent of three units. (Concentration.) 2. Brown University requires four units to be chosen from chem- istry, physics, or languages other than English. This is only for the B. S. degree. (Concentration, primarily.) 3. Carleton CoUege states that "two series of two imits each to the extent of four units must be added from the following groups of subjects: Foreign languages, history, and social sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics." (Concentration.) > Tho terms concentration or distribution indicate the function of the semielective. COLLEGE EIvTTEAFCE EEQUIREMEI^TS. 59 4. Columbia University adds two units of intermediate or advanced subjects from group 1 of the elective subjects (seven subjects). (Concentration.) 5. Haverford College requires one language out of tbe four units of free electives. (Concentration.) 6. Leland Stanford combines 12 units of semielectives and free electives, as follows: No prescription other than English is made. Candidates desiring to study mathe- matics must obviously offer such elementary mathematics as is not taught by the univeraity, and engineering students are expected to offer also solid geometry and trigonometry. Candidates desiring to study Latin should offer at least two entrance units in that subject. (Distribution or concentration.) 7. Tulane University of Louisiana preparatory to the A. B, course has for semielective units " either Greek, history, or science to the extent of two units in addition to three prescribed subjects." (Con- centration or distribution.) 8. Vanderbilt University requires a semielective for the B. S. course to the extent of two ujiits chosen from history or science. (Distribution.) 9. Vassar College requires from, one to two units selected from a third foreign language, or a science, or American history. (Concen- tration.) Tlie group systems of the elective units. — The growth of subject matter in the last 25 years has made the administration of the sec- ondary school curricula more complicated and unwieldly. It has been found convenient, in view of the numerous subjects which com- mand secondary school credit, to divide these subjects into groups, the more common ones beingEnglish, foreign language, mathematics, science, and history. In some cases the prescribed units are con- sidered as one group and the electives the other group. Some of the smaller institutions where the list of entrance subjects is lunited also use the group system, while ui certain large institutions the long list of electives is not organized into groups. Tlie group system and entrance electives. — Ten State and nine endowed institutions have the electives of the entrance require- ments divided into groups. In addition to these three State schools combine the prescribed and elective subjects into groups, the pre- scribed subjects forming one group and the electives two or more groups. Three endowed schools include the prescribed subjects with the electives in the group system. The degree or core groups, which usually contain both prescribed and elective subjects, are found in 13 State institutions and 22 endowed schools. 169494°— 20 5 60 REQUIEEMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR 's DEGREE.

Other group arrangements. — The vocational subjects farm a dis- tinct group in four of the institutions whose elective groups are not more than three in number. Tlie vocational group is not found where there are four or more elective groups. Five institutions combine the prescribed and elective subjects into group organizations. The tendency is to group as follows: A prescribed subject group of literary subjects, an elective group of literary subjects, and an elective group of nonhterary or vocational subjects. Hamilton College and Wellesley College have elective groups of special interest. Credit allowed for vocational electives. — Vocational subjects are elective except in the University of Porto Rico, where 2 units in in- dustrial subjects is prescribed. The following summ^ary shows the number of units which may be elected in vocational subjects in 19 State and 2 endowed colleges: Amount of credit. I-^Wtution. „So'j3.

Not many decades have passed since the studies offered by publio and private high schools were so few that little or no election was possible. Today the number of subjects offered by many high schools reaches at least 60. The college list of accepted entrance subjects has also greatly increased, owing in part to the influence of the secondary schools and in part to the college curricula. The number of acceptable imits listed by universities and colleges of the United States varies approximately from 25 to 50. One of the most complete and repre- sentative lists of accepted entrance subjects is that of the University of Pennsylvania. A glance at the list of 49 preparatory studies shows the need of the methods of selection and control, such as divid- ing the entrance subjects into prescribed subjects, semielectives, group electives, and free electives.

The selection of one or more of the following subjects — English^ foreign language, history, science, and mathematics — as the pre- scribed entrance subjects is the first step in distribution. These subjects are also the basis of the articulation of entrance and gradua- tion requirements. 68 requiremejStts for the bachelor's degree. According to Table 18^ we find the following distribution of pre- scribed subjects: For the A. B. degree. prescribes 1 subject. 5 prescribe 2 subjects. 6 prescribe 3 subjects. 17 prescribe 4 subjects. 20 prescribe 5 subjects. 1 prescribes 6 subjects. 1 prescribes 1 subject. 4 prescribe 2 subjects. I prescribes 3 subjects. 4 prescribe 4 subjects. II prescribe 5 subjects. 1 prescribes 6 subjects. 1 prescribes 1 subject. 2 prescribe 2 subjects. 6 prescribe 3 subjects. 9 prescribe 4 subjects. 12 prescribe 5 subjects. 1 prescribes 4 subjects. STATE. 1 prescribes 4 subjects. ENDOWED. 2 prescribe 1 subject. prescribes 2 subjects. 16 presqribe 3 subjects. 19 prescribe 4 subjects. 12 prescribe 5 subjects. For the B. S. degree. ENDOWED. 1 prescribes 1 subject. prescribes 2 subjects. 8 prescribe 3 subjects. 9 prescribe 4 subjects. 10 prescribe 5 subjects. For the B. Ed. degree. ENDOWED. 2 prescribe 1 subject: prescribes 2 subjects. 2 prescribe 3 subjects. 1 prescribes 4 subjects. 1 prescribes 5 subjects. For the Ph. B. degree. ENDOWED. 1 prescribes 3 subjects. 2 prescribe 4 subjects. 2 prescribe 5 subjects. For the Litt. B. degree. ENDOWED. 1 prescribes 3 subjects. The average number of prescribed entrance subjects for the A. B. degree for all State universities is approximately 4.04; for the en- dowed schools, 3.70. This indicates that the State schools control distribution through the prescribed subjects to a greater extent than do the endowed schools. The average number of prescribed entrance subjects for the B. S. degree for all State uinversities is approximately 4.04, and for the endowed schools, exactly 4. The tendency to a wider distribution is slightly greater in the State schools. COLLEGE ENTRANCE EEQUIREMENTS. '69 The average number of prescribed entrance subjects for the Ph. B. degree for the 5 endowed schools is 3.80, or less than the 4 prescribed subjects of the State school. For the Litt. B. degree, the State schools prescribe four subjects;/ the endowed schools, 3. The average number of prescribed subjects for the degree in edu- cation in State schools is 3.96 subjects, while in the endowed schools it is only 2.83 subjects. DISTRIBUTION AS DETERMINED BY THE SEMIELECTIVE SUBJECTS. Semielective subjects may count for distribution as well as for concentration. State schools. — At Rutgers College, the permission to "substitute 1 unit of science for 1 of the 2 prescribed units of history," increases the distribution of prescribed subjects from four to five subjects. Endowed schools.— Bi^owii University, which requires English, foreign language, history, and mathematics, increases tha number of four distribution subjects to five if one of the scientific subjects is chosen by requiring the choice of 4 units, to be chosen from, chem- istry, physics; or language other than English. Carleton College increases the distribution of the three entrance subjects, English, foreign languages, and mathematics, to either 4 or 5, because "two series of 2 units each to the extent of 4 units, must be added from the foUowmg group of subjects: Foreign lan- guage, history, and social sciences, natural sciences, and mathe- matics." Columbia University increases the distribution of the three entrance subjects, English, foreign language, and mathematics to either four or five subjects, by adding 2 units of intermediate or advanced sub- jects from group 1 of the elective subjects (seven subjects). Leland Stanford- increases the norm.al distribution of the one sub- ject, English, to two or three subjects, if either mathematics or Latin are to be studied in college, in which case these subjects must be^ taken as preparatory v/ork. Tulane, which has 3 distribution subjects, English, foreign lan- guage, and mathematics, increases distribution to either four or five subjects in connection with the A. B. course. "Either Greek, history, or science to the extent of 2 units" must be added to the 3 prescribed units. Vanderbilt adds an additional distribution entrance subject for the B. S. course, by requiring 2 units of either history or science. This makes a total of four subjects in either case. Vassar increases the normal distribution of four entrance subjects to 5, by requirmg "1 or 2 units selected from a third foreign language or a science or American history." The distribution, however, is not increased, if the additional modern language is elected. 70 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR 's DEGREE. DISTRIBUTION AS DETERMINED BY GROUP ELECTIVES. The group systems give opportunity for further distribution than is indicated by the prescribed entrance studies, the semielectives, or both. For instance, the prescribed entrance distribution group of Michigan may be increased, if the student elects a vocational subject from group 2. If he elects history from group 1, the distri- bution subjects will be increased to five. The same method of adding distribution subjects for entrance holds equally true for Tufts, Mississippi, Columbia, Wellesley, Iowa, South Dakota, Chicago, Illmois, New Hampshire (B. S.), Beloit, Grinnell, and Hamilton. DISTRIBUTION AS DETERMINED BY FREE ELECTIVES ONLY. Inasmuch as only 23 out of the 101 institutions utilize the group system in any of its forms in determining the character of entrance subjects, it is evident that the remaining 78 institutions, most of which offer free electives in the entrance subjects, give some oppor- tunity for further distribution than is indicated by the prescribed distribution subjects. However, the subjects elected may either m- crease distribution or may strengthen by further concentration one of the original prescribed subjects. DISTRIBUTION AS DETERMINED BY MORE THAN TWO AGENCIES. Few institutions utilize more than two agencies of distribution. A typical example is that of Teachers College, Columbia University, which increases the distribution made by the three prescribed sub- jects, by the addition of two semielectives and group electives. CONCENTRATION LN COLLEGE ENTRANCE SUBJECTS. The quantity of units required in any given subject may be pre- scribed by different methods. In schools where all subjects are pre- scribed and there are no electives, the concentration in any subject is fixed. The only examples of this type are Bryn Mawr College and the Catholic University, with respect to the A. B. course; and Rutgers College with respect to the B. S. com^se. In colleges where electives are permitted, concentration may be obtained through the semielectives. In Baker University concentra- tion in any of the five prescribed subjects may be increased from 1 to 3 units. In Brown University additional concentration in English, foreign languages, or mathematics must be gamed by means of 2 imits of "intermediate or advanced subjects from group 1 of the elective sub- jects" (seven subjects). In Haverford College with four prescribed subjects, further concen- tration from 1 to 2 units may be made in language or history. Fur- COLLEGE EHTEAlSrCE KEQUIEEMENTS. 71 ther concentration may also be obtained from the group subjects in Columbia University. In all other colleges, additional concentra- tion m any entrance subject is made through the free electives. Amount and average of concentration in prescribed entrance require- ments. — The amount of concentration in each prescribed entrance subject is found in the minimum and maximum tables and the sum- maries of these tables in the previous section on ''The prescribed entrance subjects." SUMMARY OF CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLEGE ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. 1. Minimum age limit. — The minimum age limit for entrance to the colleges of liberal arts is as follows : In 1 State school and 1 endowed, 15 years; in 24 State schools and 6 endowed, 16 years; in 1 endowed school, 17 years. One-half of the State schools publish a minimum age limit, while only one-seventh of the endowed schools mention it. As far as published data show, 16 years is the more common mini- mum age limit for entrance to liberal arts colleges. 2. Moral cTiaracter. — Twenty-three State and 29 endowed insti- tutions require the presentation of a statement, or a certificate of approval regarding the entrant's moral character, or a certificate of honorable dismissal. 3. Physical condition. — Four State and six endowed schools make definite prescriptions respecting the physical fitness of the candidate for entrance. The endowed schools include four women's colleges — Goucher, Smith, Wells, and Wellesley. 4. MetJiod of entrance. — Fifty out of the 51 State schools and 49 out of the endowed schools admit on examination at the college. Eleven out of the 51 State schools and 35 out of the 50 endowed schools an- nounce the acceptance of the C. E. E. B. examinations. Five out of the 51 State schools and 16 out of the 50 endowed schools announce the acceptance of the New York State Board of Regent's examina- tions. Fifty-one out of the 51 State schools and 45 out of the 50 en- dowed schools accept certificates of accredited secondary schools. One State school and 2 endowed schools announce the plan of part certification and comprehensive examinations. Ten endowed schools have adopted the plan of certification and comprehensive examina- tions. Eight out of the 51 State schools accept the graduates of approved normal schools. At least 3 out of 51 State schools and 1 out of the 50 endowed schools accept appropriate State teachers' certificates. 5. Definition and nomenclature of unit of credit. — Only 5 of the 51 State and 22 of the 50 endowed colleges clearly define the word "unit." 72 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. 6. Entrance with conditions. — ^Thirteen State and 26 endowed schools do not make any statement in regard to conditioned entrance. Eight State and five endowed schools admit conditioned students without specifying the exact number of miits which may be short in credit. Seven State and nine endowed schools permit 1 unit of conditioned work. Twenty-five State and five endowed schools permit entrance condi- tions to the extent of 2 units. Two endowed schools permit entrance conditions to the extent of 2 1 units. One endowed school permits entrance conditions to the extent of 3 units. One endowed school permits entrance conditions to the extent of 5 imits (Bryn Mawr 20-5). The prescribed eiitrance subjects compared as to number of units. — Tlie subjects which are more uniform respecting the number of units re- quired are English and mathematics. The tendency m mathematics is for 2 units in the State schools and 2h units in the endowed. Science and history (social science) vary but little from 1 unit, although they are not required by more than one-half as many schools as is English. Foreign language varies the most as to the number of units required. Latin is prescribed for entrance by 8.17 per cent of the State schools and by 10 per cent of the endowed schools. Ancient language is pre- scribed singly and in combination with other languages for the A. B. degree by 33 per cent of the State schools and 56 per cent of the endowed. AVERAGES. The highest general average in any prescribed subject is in foreign language — 3.73 units. The minimum average requirement is that of the B. S. degree (State) — 2.41, and the maximumi, not countmg the 6 units of the Ph. B. (endowed), is 4.86 units A. B. degree (endowed). The next in order is English- — 2.83 units. The minimum average requirement is that of the A. B. and B. S. degrees, 2,95 units; the miiximum being 3 units — B. Ed. endowed schools. Following English is mathematics — 2.50 units. The minirciima average requirement is 2.17 units, and the maximum, 2.66 units — Ph. B. endowed schools. Social science is the next, with 1.20 units. The minimum being 1 miit — B. Ed. and Litt. B. endowed, the maximum is found in the B. S. (State schools) — 1.37 units. Science varies but little from social science, 1.19 units; the maxi- m:um is 1.12 units— A. B. (State), and the maximum for the B. S. (endowed) is 1.30 units. This does not include the average for the Ph. B. (endowed) — 1^ units. COLLEGE ENTRANCE EEQUIEEMENTS. 73 TTie total ])rescribed entrance requirements. — Considering the general averages of the different degrees, we find a reasonable degree of uni- formity in the number of prescribed entrance units. There is a devia- tion from the general average of 9.95 units by the A. B. (State) to the extent of minus 0.93; for the A. B. (endowed), plus 0.82; for the B. S. (State), minus 2.12; for the B, S. (endoVv^ed), minus 0.51 for the B. Ed. (State), minus 1.05; for the B. Ed. (endowed), minus 3.70; for the Ph. B. (endowed), plus 1.96. The divergencies of importance are those of the B. Ed. endowed and Ph. B. endowed. The other instances are individual and are not brought into comparison. The total elective entrance requirements. — ^The same tendencies to a reasonable uniformity are shown in the average total number of elective units. The use and characteristics of entrance electives. — Three State and jiine endowed institutions offer semielectives as a part of the entrance requirements. The functions of the semielectives m the aforemen- tioned groups are for concentration only in the three State schools and three of the endowed, for either distribution or concentration in two endowed schools, and for distribution in one endowed school. The use and characteristics of group electives. — Nme State and nine endowed take advantage of the group system to facilitate further distribution or concentration. Two institutions have 2 elective groups; 4 have 3 elective groups; 3 have 4 elective groups; 2 have 5 elective groups; and 1 has 1 elective group. The degree groups. — Five State and 12 endowed schools have elective degree entrance groups for the A. B. and B. S. degrees. Five endowed schools have similar groups for the A. B., B. S., and Ph. B. degrees. One endowed school has groups for the A. B., Litt. B., and B. S. degrees. One endowed school has groups for the A. B., B. S., Ph. B., and L. H. B. Three State and one endowed list distinct entrance groups for the bachelor's degree in education. Three State and two endowed institutions provide from two to three distinct entrance core groups which admit to the one de- gree — A. B. Vocational electives for entrance. — One State school allows 2 voca- tional elective units; 6 allow 3; 11 allow 4; 2 endowed schools allow 4; and 1 State school allows 6. Total requirements. — The principal deviations from the average total entrance requirements (14.86 units) are those of the Ph. B., en- dowed, which exceeds the average by 1.15 units, and the Litt. B. 74 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. endowed, which exceeds it by 1.64. The present tendency of total entrance requirements is toward 15 units. There is a general tendency in entrance requirements to prescribe two-thirds of the work and permit the election of one-third. The following is a summary of tendencies in distribution of pre- scribed subjects for entrance: Thirty-eight out of 48 State schools require from 4 to 6 entrance subjects for the A. B. degree. Thirty- one out of 49 endowed schools require from 4 to 5 entrance subjects for the A. B. degree. Sixteen out of 22 State schools require from 4 to 6 entrance subjects for the B. S. degree. Nineteen out of 27 endowed schools require from 4 to 5 entrance subjects for the B. S. degree. One State school requires 4 subjects for entrance to the Ph. B. course. Four out of 5 endowed schools require from 4 to 5 subjects for entrance to the Ph. B. course. One State school requires 4 subjects for entrance to the Litt. B. course. One endowed school requires 3 subjects for entrance to the Litt. B. course. Twenty-one out of 30 State schools prescribe from 4 to 5 subjects for entrance to bachelor's courses in education. Two out of 6 endowed schools pre- scribe from 4 to 5 subjects for entrance to bachelor's courses in education. Summing up the cases for all degrees we have: Seventy-seven out of 102, or about 75 per cent, of State-school degree courses require for entrance from 4 to 6 prescribed subjects. Fifty-seven out of 88, or about 64 per cent, of endowed-schooT degree courses require for entrance from 4 to 5 prescribed subjects. One hundred and thirty- four out of 190, or about 70 per cent, of degree courses require for entrance from 4 to 5 prescribed subjects. This shows that a large majority of all the schools (70 per cent) require from 4 to 5 (or 6)^ subjects for the prescribed entrance require- ments, and that the State schools exceed the endowed schools by 11 per cent in maintaining these numbers of distribution subjects. The average number of subjects required for entrance varies as follows : Table 19. — Average number of subjects required for entrance. A. B. B. S. Ph. B. Litt. B. B.Ed. State 4.04 3.70 4.04 4.00 4.00 3.80 4 3 3.96 2.83 The State schools show for all degrees a greater average number of prescribed distribution subjects than the endowed schools. 1 Porto Kico. COLLEGE ENTKAFCE EEQUIREMENTS. 75 LACK OF UNIFORMITY IN THE COMBINATION OF PRESCRIBED ENTRANCE SUBJECTS. A. B. degree. — Two out of 6 State schools and 2 out of 16 endowed institutions substitute history for language where the others pre- scribe Enghsh; foreign language, and mathematics. Three out of 17 State schools differ in regard to the regular group of four subjects — English, foreign language, history, and mathe- matics. Two institutions — Illinois and Michigan — substitute science for history, while South Carolina drops language for science. B. S. degree. — Two out of seven endowed schools vary from the regular combination of three subjects — English, foreign language, and mathematics. Pittsburgh substitutes history for language, while Columbia requires in place of the latter subject, science. The combination, English, history, science, and matliematics is found in three institutions. At the University of Virginia this is changed to English, foreign language, science, and mathematics. Of the nine endowed schools prescribing four subjects, Muhlenburg and New York favor science rather than language. The hacJielor's degree in education. — Two of the six State schools pre- scribing three subjects vary from the others as follows: Utah sub- stitutes history for language, and Arkansas substitutes science for mathematics. The latter instance is the only example of mathe- matics being excluded from the prescribed subjects for entrance to any degree course with the exception of the following schools, Hawaii, Mississippi, Chicago, and Columbia, which prescribe one subject only. Of the endowed schools prescribing three subjects, Pittsburgh differs from George Washington by substituting history for language. Two of the nine State schools prescribing four subjects do not follow the regular order. Michigan requires science instead of his- tory; South Carolina prescribes science instead of language. The following is a summary of substitutions from the regular order ^ of subjects: 1. State schools. — Language is displaced by history in 3 instances, A. B. degree; and by history 2 instances, B. Ed. degree; total, 5 instances. Science displaces history in 2 instances, A. B. degree; language, 1 instance, A. B. degree; 4 instances, B. S. degree; mathematics, 1 instance, B. S. degree; history, 1 instance, B. Ed. degree; language, 1 instance, B. Ed. degree. Total: Science displaces the afore- mentioned subjects 10 times. 2. Endowed schools. — History displaces foreign language in 2 instances, A. B. degree; 1 instance, B. S. degree; 1 instance, B. Ed. 1 By regular order we mean English, language, history, science, mathematics, or as given in Table 18. 169494°— 20 6 76 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. degree. Science displaces loreign language 1 instance, B. S. degree. Total: Language is displaced by history and science 5 times. The preceding summary shows that the type of degree has rela- tively little influence on the distribution of the entrance subjects. The most noticeable and natural difference is found in th8 B. S. en- trance requirements of State schools where science displaces foreign language in four instances. The State institutions are inclined to offer a greater distribution of prescribed subjects than the endowed institutions, but the endowed schools demand greater concentration especially in foreign language and mathematics. On the whole, the standards for the Ph. B. and Litt. B. degrees are higher than for the average A. B. degree, but it is also true in the few schools granting these degrees, that their requirements for the A. B. and B. S. are equally high. SUGGESTIONS. The following suggestions may be derived from this chapter: 1. The publication of the minimum age limit should be omitted from the entrance requirements inasmuch as the principal reason for it no longer exists. 2. The physical fitness of the student should be considered in the prescribed entrance requirements. Secondary schools should insure as far as possible the physical as well as the mental fitness of all their students, and especially those who are preparing for college. 3. As the large majority of colleges and universities now use the term '' unit " as the basic term for measuring entrance credits, it seems desirable that all other institutions should fall in line and use the same term. 4. A definite statement respecting the rules of the college governing conditions and their absolution should be published. Chapter III. COLLEGE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE CULTURAL DEGREES IN COLLEGES OF LIBERAL ARTS. The following first degrees are granted by the institutions included in this discussion: Bachelor of arts, bachelor of science, bachelor of philosophy, and bachelor of literature, or of humane letters. Bache- lor's degrees in education are also included, but other technical or vocational first degrees are omitted in this study.

The institutions listed below allow advanced standing to graduates of recognized State normal colleges who have fully satisfied the COLLEGE GRADUATION EEQUIREMEFTS. 79 college entrance requirements. The tendency is not to specify the exact amount of credit which may be accepted toward the college degree, but rather to treat normal-school credits on their merits. It may be said in general of State-supported institutions that normal-school credits of collegiate character from State normal schools may be applied toward any collegiate degree for which such credits are usually counted in liberal arts colleges. There is a tendency, however, to limit the amount of normal school credit to be applied on the college bachelor's curriculum in education to about two years — from 48 to 60 semester hours. The University of Missouri, however, admits to its graduate schools the graduates of the four-year collegiate curricula of the State teachers' colleges of that State. The following is a partial list of institutions granting advanced standing to normal-school students: University of Alabama, Uni- versity of Arizona, University of California, University of Colorado, University of Idaho, University of Kansas, State University of Louisiana, University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, Univer- sity of Missouri, University of North Dakota, Ohio State University, University of Oklahoma, University of Texas, University of Wis- consin, Leland Stanford, Jr., University, Teachers' CoUege, George Washington University, Teachers' College, Columbia University, and New York University School of Pedagogy.

The number of the schools granting the A. B. and B. S. degrees is not quite so large as that of the pre- ceding group. Kelatively few institutions grant more than two cul- tural degrees. An examination of the catalogues from the years 1885 to 1890 of the schools granting the A. B. only shows that many of these granted from two to four cultural degrees. A partial list is here given : Two degrees. — State institutions: 1. Illinois, A. B. and B. L. Endowed institu- tions: i. Colorado, A. B. and Ph. B.; 2. Oberlin, A. B. and Pli. B.; 3. Wellesley, A.

VALUE AND NOMENCLATURE OF UNIT OF MEASUREMENT OF COLLEGE REQUIREMENTS. According to Table 20, there is a lack of uniformity in the length of the college unit of measuring credit. There is also considerable difference in the nomenclature of these units. The unit most fre- quently employed is the semester hour which is used by 43 of the State schools and 28 of the endowed, although only 28 of the State schools and 20 of the endowed schools call it "semester hour." The other terms used by the State institutions are "unit," "term hour," "credit," "credit hour," and "session hour." Among the endowed institutions are found the following terms: "Half credit," "point," " credit hour," "unit," "credit," and "course." The remaining 8 of the State schools and 17 of the 21 remaining endowed schools use the "year hour" and all but two of them call it by this name. The two exceptions use the term "unit. " Two other endowed schools reckon the college year by use of the term "course." Another institution uses the terms "major" and " minor." The "major" is a unit 12 weeks long with 4 or 5 recitations weekly. The "minor" is only 6 weeks in length. Length of courses for the bachelor's degree. — The college courses lead- ing to the different bachelor's degrees are four years in length, although m^any institutions permit students of ability to reduce this period to 82 REQUIREMENTS FOE THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. three and one-half or even three j^ears. The reduction in time is usually allowed for by giving credit for a surplus of secondary school work of the requisite grade, by the acceptance of credits gained in summer schools, or by increasing the weekly and annual quota of required hours. The length of the school year varies from eight to nine months, although there is considerable difference in the amount of time granted for vacations, mid-year, and final examinations as well as for com- mencement. A further study of this question would doubtless show that the actual number of teaching days for the bachelor's degree varies considerably in the different universities and colleges in this country. Minimum residence. — Twenty-four State and 26 endowed institu- tions of our list announce a minimum period of residence for obtain- ing the bachelor's degree. Nine State and eight endowed institutions require a minimum resi- dence of one year, no other restrictions being stated. Tlie institu- tions are: Alabama, Illinois, Iowa, Nevada, North Dakota, Miami, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, Brown, Colorado CoUege, George Washing- ton, Grinnell, Leland Stanford, Muhlenburg, University of the South, Swarthmore, and Vassar. Carleton requires one year's residence, which must include the last semester. Ohio and Wyoming require two semesters; De Pauw re- quires one year, subject to vote. The senior year is required by five State and six endowed schools (Arkansas, Missouri, New Mexico, ConieU (N. Y.), Ohio State, and Colgate, Goucher, Johns Hop- Idns, Smith, Washington (St. Louis), and WeUs) but the number of hours are not specified. Two State and two endowed schools pre- scribe the number of hours of senior residence: Iowa, Kansas, and Oberlin, 30 semester hours; Pennsylvania, 24 semester hours. Ten State and four endowed institutions require a definite number of hours of residence without stating the year; they are as foUows: Arizona, 20 semester hours; California, South Dakota, and Columbia, 24 semester hours; Utah, 25 semester hours; Vanderbdt, 28 semester hours; Colorado, Michigan, Nebraska, West Virginia, Bowdoin, and Western Reserve, 30 semester hours; Mississippi, 32 semester hours; Washington State College, 36 semester hours. Maximum, residence for the hachelor^s degree. — Only one institution, Columbia University, limits the time beyond which the bachelor's degree may not be granted, the limit being six years. Credit j or quality. — ^Eleven institutions of our list grant credit for quality of scholarship by increasing or decreasing the number of hours required for graduation according to the number of scholar- ship points obtained. These institutions are Michigan, Missouri, COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS. 83 New Mexico, Oklahoma, Beloit, Columbia, Dartmouth, Johns Hop- kins, Swarthmore, Vanderbilt, and Williams. Schemes for giving credit for quality. — ^The University of Missouri announces the following : " Students making a grade of 'E' will be allowed 30 per cent additional credit; those making a grade of 'S' will he allowed 15 per cent additional credit; those mak- ing a grade of ' I ' will have 15 per cent deducted from their credit. " At the University of New Mexico the number of credit hours required for all di- plomas and degrees conferred by the university is based upon average work which is designated M. For every 15 credit hours of S (superior) work the amount required for graduation is diminished by two credit hours; for every 15 credit hours of G (good) work the amount required for graduation is diminished by one credit hour; for every 15 credit hours cf W (weak) work the amount required for graduation is in- creased by one credit hour. Beloit College uses the following plan : AA, work of extraordinary quality, one credit for each hour completed; A, excel- lent work, eight-tenths of a credit for each hour; B, good work, five-tenths of a credit for each hour; C, fair work, two-tenths of a credit for each hour; F, failure, with privi- lege of reexamination; FF, failure, without privilege of reexamination. A plus or a minus accompanying a grade adds or subtracts one-tenth of a credit for each hour. Sixteen hours and four and one-half credits for the freshman and sophomore years. Fifteen hours and five credits for the junior and senior years. Johns Hopkins University states : A student may offer 119 "points" for graduation instead of 125; in case a student has an average of not less than 9 for the work of his third year, and has not received a mark as low as 7 for any of his courses since admission to the university, he need offer only 119 points for graduation. Other schemes designed to encourage a high quality of work are the following : ^ Kentucky — -120 hours and 120 'points. — ^A equals 3 points, B equals 2 points, C equals 1 point, D equals O point, E equals failure. Michigan — 120 hours and 120 points. — A equals 3 points, B equals 2 points, C equals 1 point, D equals O point, E equals O hours and O points. OMahoma—124 hours and not less than 174 points. — A or A minus equals 3 points, B or B minus equals 2 points, C equals 1 point, D equals 1 hour and O point. Minnesota — 120 hours and 120 honor points. — A equals 3 points, B equals 2 points, C equals 1 point. Swarthmore — 124 hours and 124 points. — A equals 3 points, B equals 2 points, C equals 1 point, D equals O point but is a pass. Vanderbilt — 64 quantity hours and 60 quality hours. — A equals 3 points, B equals 2 points, C equals 1 point, D equals O point. Dartmouth (1918) — 122 semester hours and 220 points. — A equals 4 points, B equals 3 points, C equals 2 points, D equals 1 point. 1 Each hour of credit is Valued in points. 84 REQUIRElVIEiSrTS FOE THE BACHELOR 's DEGREE. TYPES OF PRESCRIBED SUBJECTS— COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS. The types of prescribed subjects for college gi'aduation require- ments may be classified under the same heads as those of the prescribed entrance units as follows: (a) Specific subject; (b) subject (course imspecified) ; (c) core group, degree group. The specific subject type comprehends any single prescribed sub- ject, as freshman rhetoric, college algebra, or plane trigonometry, subjects for which no substitution may be made in any definite degree course. The subject type with course unspecified comprehends foreign language, science, or social science, the group subject standing out more prominently than any single subject of its group. In the degree group the prescribed subjects definitely characterize a specific degree as shown in the degree groups of the Universities of Alabama, Arizona, Illinois, Bowdoin, Lafayette, and the Catholic University, and others. The core group is the same as the degree group but the prescribed subjects which characterize the group lead to the same degree. For example, at the University of North Carolina group 1 includes the following prescribed subjects: English, mathematics, Greek and Latin, and French or German ; group 3 includes English, mathematics, French and German, science and history. But both groups lead to one degree — the bachelor of arts. Other examples may be found in the curricula of the following schools : George Washington, Johns Hopkins, Triuity, and Tulane of Louisana. NUMBER AND NAMES OF SUBJECTS PRESCRIBED FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. In the chapter on entrance requirements it was found that a total of 5 subjects is prescribed for entrance to college by the institutions under discussion (not including Porto Rico), though not all these sub- jects are necessarily prescribed by any one institution. In the colleges we find that not only English, foreign language, mathematics, science, and social science are required, but also philosophy and psychology, Bible, education, hygiene, public speak- ing, art, drafting, drawing, mechanics, matriculation or freshmen lectures, bibliography, and Ubrary methods, making a total of 12 subjects. Physical training and military science are excluded in this discussion. COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMElsTTS. 85 Table 21. — Distribiition of prescribed s^ibjects according to the different degrees.

According to Table 22, English is a prescribed subject for the bach- elor's degree m all State and endowed schools irnder discussion with the following exceptions: Cornell, Leland Stanford, Harvard, and Yale. Cornell prescribes English and history to the extent of 6, semester hours, but "each 6 hours may be, be entirely in one divi-J COLLEGE GRADUATIOlSr REQUIREMENTS. 89 sion (for example, English 6 hours) or partly in one and partly in another (for example English 3, and history 3)."^ English may be omitted at Leland Stanford University if the stu- dent can meet certam standards, as indicated by the following: A. Elementary composition. A one-semester course required of all first-year under- graduates except those who show themselves entitled to exemption.^ All first-year undergraduates (including special students, and students coming from other institutions with less than 20 units of advanced credit) will be required to satisfy the university standard in English composition. This may be done by passing a special matriculation test given during matriculation week. The examination will test the candidate's abiHty to write exercises not only free from marked deficiencies in spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and paragraphing, but also of his abihty to think consecittively on a simple subject. * * * A student who passes this test may be exempted from composition work in the university, or may enter Course 2 in the department of English . A student who does not pass will he required to register in English A at once. Some students whose work shows exceptional promise of maturity may be assigned to English 2 instead.^ In the Yale College announcement we find the f oUowmg statement : A student entering the freshman class must choose five of the following subjects: Latin, Greek, French, German, English, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and history. The only restrictions on the choice are these: (1) The student must take either French or German, but may not take both; (2) he must take either mathematics, physics, or chemistry, but may not take both physics and chemistry. In a similar way English may be omitted during the sophomore year. A student at Harvard University "who passes the examination in English A satisfactorily before entering college need not take English while in college."^ ! Table 22 also shows the different requirements in college English according to the different degrees, beginning with the institution with the minimum requirement and concluding with the maximum. The ratio of the prescribed work in English to the total graduation require- ments is given in per cent, the total graduation requirements occupy- ing the first column of each table.

Yeomans. 90 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR S DEGREE. Table 23 shows that the average college requirements m English for the A. B. degree in the State schools is a little over half of a semes- ter hour below that of the endowed schools. The B. S. and B. Ed. of the endowed schools fall about one semester below the general average. The B. Ed. is high, but no degree reaches the general aver- age of 14 semester hours of the Ph. B. degree of the endowed schools. The Ph. B. State, and the Litt. B. both State and endowed are not included as they are represented by one institution respectively. There are two modes for English as is shown bv the accompanying Graph 9. The followmg summary of the cases for these modes shows the general tendency in the number of units prescribed. Summary of mode. Degree. A. B. (State) A. B. (endowed). . B.S. (State) B. ,S. (endowed)... B.Ed. (State) B. Ed. (endowed). Ph. B. (State) Ph. B. (endowed). Litt. B. (State).... Litt. B. (endowed) Total Primary mode^ 6 semester hours. Secondary mode — 12 semester hours. Number of cases. 190 Accordingly in 73 out of 196 cases (38.26 per cent) the primary mode for English is 6 semester hours; in 44 out of 196 cases (22.4 per cent) the secondary mode is 12 semester hours. A comparison of these tables with those of English of the entrance requirements, shows that the college standards are far less uniform as to the quan- tity prescribed.

Foreign language is prescribed for the A, B. degree by all the State schools except Arkansas, Michigan, Nebraska, Wyoming, Colo- rado, and Minnesota. Of the endowed institutions all prescribe it except Leland Stanford, Yale, Western Reserve, and Wellesley. (See Table 24.) For the B. S. degree foreign language may be omitted in Michigan, Nebraska, New Hampshire, and m the University of Chicago. For the bachelor's degree in education foreign language is not prescribed in Arkansas, Michigan, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyo- ming, Minnesota, Washington, and Oregon. Chicago does not pre- scribe it for either the degree in education or the Ph. B. degree. It is required in all other schools for both the Ph. B. and Litt. B. degrees. Table 25. — Foreign language.

The B. S. degree both of State and endowed schools shows a tend- ency to lower standards in language requirements. This observa- tion is also true for the B. Ed. degrees. The variation in standards of quantity of prescribed foreign lan- guage is perhaps greater than any other study prescribed. There are 14 different standards in foreign language for the A. B. degree in the State schools and 18 in those which are endowed. The mode — 12 semester hours, including both State and endowed schools — repre- sents from one-fourth to nearly two-fifths of all the instances. It is also noticeable that there is an increase in the number of frequencies when the standard is 6 or a multiple of 6. There are, of course, exceptions to this. For the B. S. degree the mode 12 represents from one-third to one- half of the instances in the State and in the endowed schools. For the B. Ed. degrees the frequencies are more widely distrib- uted, the central tendency not being so strong. The requirements for the Ph. B. degree of endowed schools show a very high standard in language, being about double that of the average tendency of other degrees. Thfe requirements in language for the Litt. B. degree are lower than the average. Foreign L sn^usge A. B. Stare A. B. Endoive-cf B.S. Sfs/e- r 1^ i E niiiii.i .1 .

Either an option of Latin or Greek, or both Latin and Greek, are required for the A. B. degree in 13 of the 43 State schools (30.2 per cent) and in 25 of the 46 endowed schools (54.3 per cent) of our list; Latin and Greek considered as a single subject are not prescribed by any of the schools under discussion for the A. B. degree. According to Table 26, Latui and Greek are prescribed together or as options by two State and eight endowed schools. The number of schools prescribing both Latin and foreign language, ancient and and foreign language, or ancient and modern language are six in each case. The only combination which is prescribed for the B. S., Ph. B., and Litt. B. degrees is the Latin and foreign language combination, although one school combines both Greek and Latin with foreign or modem languages. Greek is prescribed in combination or as an ojDtion for the A. B. degree by 10 State and 22 endowed schools. The number of semester hours required in ancient language alone or in combination with foreign language varies from 6 to 28 semester hours. University of Chicago excepted. The tendency is, however, to prescribe two years in these subjects. Of the 13 States and 25 endowed schools mentioned, 13 are in the south and south central part of the United States, IS are in the east and New England, while 7 are in the middle and far west.

(Including history, economics, and political science.) Social science is required for the A. B. degree by 27 of the 49 State schools and 20 of the 50 endowed institutions, according to Table 31. It is also prescribed for the B. S. degree by 10 of the 23 State schools and 10 of the 27 endowed institutions. Sixteen of the 30 State and 5 of the 6 endowed institutions prescribe it for the B. Ed. degree. Social science is not required for the Ph. B. at the Univei"sity of Vermont, nor by the University of Chicago or Hamilton College. Rutgers prescribes social science for the Litt. B. degree, but Princeton does not. Table 32. — Social Science. [Semester hours.] Degree. Mini- mum. Maxi- mum. Average. Per cent. Me- dian. Per cent. Mode. Per cent. A. B.

(State) (12. 12) General average - 1 10.40 8.04 i Table 32 shows that social science is not required for the B. S. degree to the extent that it is for the A. B. degree. The requirements for the B. Ed. degree are less than for the A. B. degree. With the exception of the A. B. degree, the endowed schools require con- siderably less social science than the State schools. The high average for the A. B. degree of endowed schools is largely due to the excessive requirements of a few institutions, otherwise there would be more harmony between the average and the median and mode. The average requirements m social science for the Ph. B. degree of the endowed schools are considerably above the general average for this subject. GrajDh 13 and the Frequency Distribution Summary show that the modes for the A. B. and B. S. degrees of endowed schools are much larger and characteristic than those of the State schools. While the mode for the B. Ed. degree of State schools is 6 semester hours yet it lacks weight due to the importance of the number of frequencies of the 12 semester hours requirement. The mode has little significance for the B. Ed. of endowed schools. A mode does not exist for the Litt. B. degree or the Ph. B. degree.

Table 34 shows that philosophy and psychology have a more nearly uniform average throughout for the different degrees than many other subjects. The requirements of the endowed schools exceed those of the State schools in philosophy and psychology, for the A. B. degree and the B. Ed. degree. For the B. S. degree, the State institutions average a little more than the endowed schools. For the Ph. B. degree the requirements are double that of the gen- eral average requirement. The mode is characteristic for each degree except in the case of the B. S. degree and B. Ed. of the State schools which show impor- tant frequencies almost equivalent to the mode. (See Graph 14.) On the whole, the prevailing standard in these subjects is 6 semester hours, the exceptions being relatively few.

B. For the B. S. degree the following schools prescribe Bible or religion: Haveriord, University of the South, Randolph-Macon, Hamilton, Cathohc University, Lafayette, and Muhlenberg. Bible is required for the Litt. B. degree at Rutgers and for the Ph. B. at Hamilton, Cathohc University, Lafayette, and Muhlenberg. On the whole the requirements for Bible are rather low, fully half of the schools requirmg less than one year's work. The lowest prescription is 2 semester hours which is given by Rutgers, Beloit, and Western Reserve. Haverford and Swarthmore require 3 semes- ter hours while the University of the South, Goucher, Oberlin, and Wells prescribe 4 semester hours. The maximum requirement is made by Muhlenberg with 14 semester hours or 10 per cent of the entire college course. (See Graph 15.)

According to Table 36, education is a prescribed college subject for the A, B. degree at the Pennsylvania State College and the Cath- olic University (school of philosophy). The latter institution requires education for the Ph. B. degree also. For the bachelor's degree in education all of the 30 State schools and 5 of the 6 endowed schools include education in the list of pre- scribed studies. Johns Hopkins University and Goucher College do not list education among the prescribed subjects, but include it under the free electives as follows: ''But at least a minimum of 24 points (semester hours) must be completed in the college course for teachers." 128 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE.

Twenty- two State and 25 endowed institutions have definite major and minor requirements for the A. B. degree. The total amount of the major and minors varies from 18 to 84 semester hours, the former amount being required by Mississippi and the latter by Minnesota. Table 40 shows approximately the distribution of the majors and minors besides giving the number of semester hours required in each. It is evident that the average total major and minor requirements for the A. B. (State) exceed those of the A. B. (endowed), the B. S. (State), the B. Ed. (State and endowed). The B, S. (endowed) requires the highest number, nearly 3 semester hours more than for the A. B. (State). The relation between the major and the corre- sponding minors shows a general tendency to have the sum of the minor requirements equal to those of the major. It might be expected that concentration obtained through the major and minors for the B. Ed. degree, both State and endowed, would be less, inasmuch as education, the usual major, is included in the prescribed subjects. But if we compare the average amount pre- scribed for the different degrees it is evident that there is little dif- ference to be found in the relative concentration gained by the cor- responding majors and minors, with the exception of the B. Ed. (endowed) which shows a large decrease in major and minor concen- tration which is partly offset by the increase of prescribed subjects. The strongest combination is the B. S. (endowed) with the average of 5.45 prescribed subjects plus an average of 42.8 semester hours of major and minor subjects. 136 REQUIREMENTS FOE THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE.

The averages for the A. B, (endowed), B. S. (State), and B. S. (endowed) are somewhat higher than the general average of 51.83 semester hours, while the average for the B. Ed. (State) is over 8 semester hours higher. The prescribed professional studies in education for the B. Ed. degree, especially of the endowed schools, greatly increase the average of prescribed work. Likewise the requirements of the small group of schools granting the Ph. B. degree show an exceptionally high average of prescribed work. The average for the A. B. (State) is, on the other hand, 13 semester hours less than the average for the A. B. (endowed), or about 8 per cent of the total college requirements. The most flexible course is that of the A, B, degree of the State schools. Less flexibility appears as the m.ore rigid requirements of the B. Ed. (endowed) and the Ph. B. (endowed) are approached.- According. to Graph 17 there is no frequency that exceeds 3 for the A. B. (State), none that exceed 4 for the A. B. (endowed), and, with the exception of the B. S. (State), none that exceed 2. The extreme differences of standards are manifestly apparent. 142 KEQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE.

COMPARISON OF THE NUMBER OF HOURS IN PRESCRIBED COLLEGE SUBJECTS. (General averages only.) The order of subjects with respect to the average number of g.e- mester hours required in college, all bachelor's degrees being consid- ered, is as follows : Education, 22.25 semester hours; foreign language, 16.82; science, 13.49; social science, 10.40; English, 9.63; mathematics, 7.61; phi- losophy and psychology, 7.23; and Bible, 6.34 semester hours. According to the different degrees, the order in semester hours is as follows •} A. B. (State). — Foreign language, 15.19; science, 11.48; social science, 10.55; English, 9.02; mathematics and philosophy and psy- chology, 7 semester hours each. A. B. {endowed). — Foreign language, 20.66; social science, 12,14; science, 11.44; English, 9.65; philosophy and psychology, 7. 56; mathematics, 6.94; Bible, 6 semester hours. Social science takes second place in the A. B. (endowed) and third in the A. B. (State). Mathematics drops behind philosophy and psychology in the A. B. (endowed). B. 8. (State). — Science, 22.38; language, 12.09; social science, 9.70; English, 9.65; mathematics, 8.93; and philosophy and psychology, 8 semester hours, B. S. (endowed). — Science, 18. 15; language, 15.62; English, 8.77; mathematics, 8.56; (Bible, 7.16); social science, 6.81; philosophy and psychology, 5.92 semester hours. English changes places with social science, being given more promi- nence in the endowed schools. Bible stands ahead of social science, but in view of the few instances it has little significance in that respect. B. Ed. (^toife).— Education, 22.75; language, 13.04; science, 10.82; social science, 9,87; English, 9.24; mathematics, 7.09; philosophy and psychology, 5.80 semester hours. B. Ed. (endowed). — Education, 31.50; language, 14.85; science, 10.66; mathematics, 10; English, 8.33; philosophy and psychology 8; social science, 7.60 semester hours. Social science is more promi- nent in the State schools, English and mathematics are more promi- nent in the endowed, Pli. B. (State). — Language, 12; English, 10; mathematics, 8 se- mester hours. PJi.B. (endowed). — Language, 27; philosophy and psychology, 15; social science, 14.25; English, 14; science, 11; mathematics, 7 se- mester hours. 1 These figures, which are based on Table 44, should not be interpreted too literally. The order given is a probable order. COLLEGE GEADUATIOE- REQUIREMENTS. 145 The State school shows less prescribed distribution. Litt.B. (State). — Social science, 16; philosophy and psychology, 12; English, language, mathematics, science, 8; Bible, 2 semester hours. Litt. B. {endowed). — Language, 14; science, 10; philosophy and psychology, 6; English, 4 semester hours. MINIMUM, AVERAGE, AND MAXIMUM REQUIREMENTS (ACCORDING TO TABLE 43). The minimum requirement in English, according to the averages of the different degrees (Table 43) is 4 semester hours Litt. B. (endowed), the general average 9.63 semester hours, the maximum 14 semester hours, Ph. B, (endowed). The minimum requirement in foreign language is 8 semester hours Litt. B. (State), the general average, 16.82; the maximum, 27 semester hours Ph. B. (endowed). The minimum requirement in mathematics is 6.94 semester hours, A. B. (endowed); the average 7.61 semester hours; the maximum, 8.93, B. S. (State). The minimum requirement in science is 8 semester hours Litt. B. (State and endowed); the average, 13.49 semester hours ; the maxi- mum 22.38 semester hours B. S. (State). The minimum requirement in social science is 6.81 semester hours B. S. (endowed); the average, 10.40, and the maximum, 14.25, (Ph. B. endowed), the latter being closely followed by 12.14 semester hours A. B. (endowed). The minimum requirement in philosophy and psychology is 5.80 B. Ed. (State); the average is 7.23 and the maximum 15 semester hours Ph. B. (endowed). The minimum requirement in Bible or religion is 2 semester hours, Litt. B. (State), the average 6.34, and the maximum 9 semester hours, Ph. B. (endowed). The mmimum requirement in education is 6 semester hours Ph. B. (endowed), the average 22.25, and the maximum 31.50, B. Ed. (endowed) .

The total graduation requirements in semester hours for the dif- ferent bachelor's degrees exhibit a considerable lack of uniformity. The requirements vary from 107 to 173 semester hours (physical training and military science not being included). (See Table 47.) The schools requiring less than 120 semester hours (physical train- ing, etc., excluded) are as follows: For the A. B. degree, Maine, 107 semester hours (plus 18 semester hours physical training or military science or both); California, 117 (plus 7 semester hours military science); for the B. S. degree, Vassar, 111 semester hours ; Wells, 115; Oberlin and Wellesley, 118 semester hours. The highest requirements, or above 130 semester hours, are found to be as follows for the A. B. degree: Rutgers, Pennsylvania State College, 132 semester hours; Louisiana, 136 semester hours; South Carolina, 138 semester hours; and the State College of Washington, 150 semester hours, which is the highest total requirement of the State schools; also Colgate and University of the South, 136 semester hours; Union, 138; Muhlenberg, 140 semester hours; the Catholic University with curricula carrying 152, 154, 162, to 172 semester hours. For the B. S. degree. New Hampshire and Vermont, 132 semester hours; Rutgers, 135; South Carolina, 138; and State College of Wash- ington, 150 semester hours; also Lafayette, 134 semester hours; Colgate and University of the South, 136 semester hours; Union, 138 semester hours; Muhlenberg, 140; Tulane, 142; and Catholic Univer- sity, 173 semester hours. For the B. Ed. degree, Georgia and Kansas, 132 semester hours; Louisiana, 136 semester hours; and South Carolina, 138 semester hours; also Tulane, 132 semester hours for the educational degree. Rutgers requires 132 semester hours for the Litt. B. degree, 138, 140, and 152 semester hours being required for the Ph. B. degree by Urdony Muhlenberg, and Catholic University.

(132) (126) The most noticeable deviations from the general average of total requirements according to Table 48 is that of the A. B. degree of the State schools, which is 2.50 semester hours less than the general aver- age, 125.25 semester hours. The requirements for the Ph. B. of both State and endowed schools are almost 7 semester hours higher than the general average requirements. The medians and modes for the different degrees show gre^t uniformity if the Ph. B. and Litt. B. degrees are eliminated. Graph 19 indicates the predominance of the 120 semester hour requirement. The next in order is 128 semester hours, which is characteristic for all degrees with the exception of the B. Ed. (State), B. Ed. (endowed), and the Ph. B. (endowed).

THE ELECTIVES OF COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS. TYPES OF ELECTIVES. The hundreds of subjects that are available for election in most universities and colleges may be organized and classified as follows: (a) Semielectives, or restricted electives, those chosen from a limited number of subjects under definite restrictions. (5) Group electives, or degree electives, those which are specifi- cally limited to definite general group subjects. (c) The major, or the major and minor electives. < {d) The freshman, or sophomore, or junior, or senior electives. ifi) Advised electives. (/) The free electives. This classification is more extensive than that of the elective sys- tem of the entrance requirements. The larger numbers of subjects included in the different curricula and the need of means of adminis- 158 EEQUIREMEN'TS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. tering the curricula in a coherent and yet well-distributed manner are responsible for the different methods of control that have been established. Personal needs, professional specialization, and departmental re- quirements are served through the different types of elective con- trol. TJie semielectives (or restricted electives). — The subjects listed as the semielectives of the entrance requirements seldom exceed three or four subjects.

Note. — "In special cases the choice of two ancient and two modern foreign lan- guages is permitted. If two foreign languages are chosen, one of them must be a lan- guage presented for admission for college." THE GROUP SYSTEM AND THE COLLEGE CURRICULUM. The majority of the colleges under discussion organize theu' cur- ricula into group systems. Twelve of the 50 State schools and 11 of the 50 endowed schools have specific group systems — namely, Indi- ana, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania State College, Porto Rico, Tennessee, Utah, State College of Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, also Amherst, Bowdoin, Colorado, Haver- ford, Leland Stanford, Northwestern, Oberlin, Tufts, Vassar, Wash- ington (St. Louis), and Wellesley. 1 Freshman year. 2 Sophomore year. COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS. 161 There are four distinct types of group systems in use in the col- leges under discussion, but there is little uniformity to be found in the details of these groups, even when the groups are of the same general type. ° • TYPES OF GROUPS. 1. The deijartmental group. — The department is the basis of the group, the total number of groups being approximately the number of departments, or in some cases related departments. 2. The general group. — ^This group is formed by dividing the cur- riculum into three or four general groups each of which is composed of one or more departmental groups. 3. The degree course groups. — ^These are prescribed groups leading to one degree. 4. The freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior groups. — These are elective groups which are required or available in either the freshman, or sophomore, or the junior, or senior years. 5. Groups of a special type.—See the University of Colorado, and the Colleges of William and Mary, Bryn Mawr, and .Williams. THE FUNCTIONS OF THE GROUP SYSTEM. In addition to forming the basis of a general organization of the curriculum, the group system functions in the following ways : 1. It may be the basis of the major and minor subjects. (See the University of Missouri.) 2. It may be the basis of semielectives. (See Smith College.) 3. It n^ay be the basis of distribution or concentration, or both. This is true for nearly all of the group systems. (See Distribution of prescribed college subjects, p. 177; and Distribution and concentra- tion, etc., p. 180.) Institutions with departmental groups.

RULES FOR THE CHOICE OF ELECTIVE STUDIES. (For the class of 1920, the class of 1921, and previous classes,) I. Every student is required to select his courses under the guidance of an adviser associated with a standing committee of nine, the committee on the choice of electives, of which the president is chairman. At or before the beginning of the freshman year he must meet his adviser to discuss the studies of the first year. At the end of his first year in college he is required to present to his adviser a plan of study for the remainder of his college course; this plan must conform to the general principles laid down in the following rules. II. Every student shall take at least six of his courses in some one department, or in one of the recognized fields for distinction. In the latter case four must be in one department. Only two of the six may be courses open to freshmen or distinctly elementary in character. III. For purposes of distribution all the courses open to undergraduates shall be divided among the following four general groups. Every student shall distribute at least six of his courses among the three general groups in which his chief work does not lie, and he shall take in each group not less than three in any two groups. The groups are: 1. Language, literature, fine arts, music. Departments: Semitic languages and history, Indie philology, the classics, English, Germanic languages and literatures, French and other romance languages and literatures, comparatiAe literature, the fine arts, music; also courses in Slavic languages. 2. Natural sciences. Departments: Physics, chemistry, engineering sciences, botany, zoology, geology and geography, mineralogy and petrography; also courses in astronomy, in hygiene and sanitation, and in the history of science. 3. History, political and social sciences. Departments: History, ^vernment, economics, education, anthropology. 4. Philosophy and mathematics. Departments: Philosophy and psychology, social ethics, mathematics; also certain philosophical courses outside of the department of philosophy and psychology. IV. Prescribed work shall not count either for concentration or distribution. V. A student may not count a course ])oth for concentration and distribution. VI. In administering these rules the committee, in accordance with the instructions of the faculty, makes exceptions freely in the case of earnest students who desire to change at a later time the plans made in their freshman year, and liberal allowances for earnest students who show that their courses are well distributed, even though they may not conform exactly to the rules laid down for distribution. In making exceptions to the rules, a student's previous training and outside reading are taken into account. (For the class of 1922 and subsequent classes.) II. Concentration. Every student shall take at least six courses in one of the recognized fields of distinction. At least four courses must be in one department. The other two may be either in that department or in related subjects approved by the committee. Only two of the six may be courses regularly open to freshmen or distinctly elementary in character. Except in the natural sciences and in mathe- matics, every student must at the close of his college course take an examination on his field of concentration. Until he passes this examination he will not be recom- mended for his degree. COLLEGE GEADUATION REQUIREMENTS. 163 III. Distribution. Every student shall take for distribution four courses to be selected as follows: A course in literature, a course in history, a course in science, and a course in mathematics or philosophy. If a course in any of these subjects is included in his field of concentration, the student must substitute for it any course outside of his field of concentration. IV. Military science will not count as a field for concentration. Students taking the whole military science programme will thereby satisfy the rules for distribution. V. Prescribed work (English A, English D, German A, French A) shall not count for either concentration or distribution. VI. A student may not count a course both for concentration and distribution SCHOOLS WITH ELECTIVE DEGREE GROUPS. This list does not include those schools which prescribe one or more special degree courses unless there are for each degree two or more prescribed groups. Johns Hopkins, which is credited as being the founder of the group system, has prepared 10 definite schedules leading to the A. B. degree each of which is in practical harmony with the general plan of study. These groups are listed as Illustrative Combinations outlining "certain combinations of courses which satisfy the requirements for the degree of bachelor of arts and which have been approved by the Board of Collegiate Studies. Other combinations are of course possible." In each case the major subject is given its place in the course. The combi- nations outlined are: A. Latin or Greek being the major; B. English being the major; C. French, Spanish or Italian being the major; D. German being the major; E. History being the major; F. Political economy being the major; G. Mathematics or physics being the major; H. Biology being the major; I. Chemistry being the m:ajor; J, Geology being the major. Two complete combinations are here given: A. Latin or Greek being the major. First year: English composition 1. French or German elements. Latin 1. Greek 1. Physical exercise. Second year: German or French elements. English literature. Latin 2. Greek 2. History 1. Public speaking. Third year: Latin 3. Greek 3. Philosophy. • Science and laboratory. Elective. Fourth year: Latin 4. Greek 4. Comparative philology. Two electives. 164 REQUIEEMEFTS FOR THE BACHELOR S DEGREE. E. History being the major. Third Year: History 2 or 3. Philosophy. Political economy 2. One science elective. One elective.

Public speaking. • In Group A the amount prescribed in ancient and modern lan- guage is about 60 semester hours, or 50 per cent of the entire course. In Group E about 42 semester hours, or 35 per cent, is required in history and political science. The George Washington University has 5 general groups leading to the cultural A, B. degree. In Group I, Latin, 25 per cent of the entire course, or 30 semester hours, are required in foreign language, but 12 semester hours of these must be in Latin. In Group II, modern language, 20 per cent of the entire course, or 24 semester hours, are required in modern language. In Group III, natural science, 15 per cent of the entire course, or 18 semester hours, are prescribed in science. In Group IV, political and social sciences, 25 per cent of the entire course, or 30 semester hours, are required in social science. The fifth group is premedical, with 50 per cent prescribed in science. The University of California has 2 plans leading to the cultural A. B. degree. Plan A has 10.25 per cent, or 12 semester hours, in language, while in Plan B the same amount is required in science. The University of North Carolina has three groups leading to the cultural A. B. degree. In Group I, 23 per cent is prescribed in ancient language; in Group 11, 22 per cent in ancient and modern language; in Group III, 10 per cent is required in science. The Catholic University characterizes the different groups of the School of Letters as follows: 1. Classical, 54 semester hours ancient language (35.5 per cent of total). 2. Latm-historical, 48 semester hours language, 24 semester hours social science (47 per cent of total). 3. Modern language, 42 semester hours (25.58 per cent of total). A comparison of the per cent of credit requhed in the typical subjects just given with the percentages of credit required in the COLLEGE GRADUATION EEQUIEEMENTS. 165 major subjects as shown in Table 39, page 133, makes it clear that there are no essential differences in the amounts prescribed, the prin- ciple of concentration being served in both cases. A study of the groups given above shows that they are carrying on the functions of many of the different degree courses, such as the B. S., B. L., Ph. B. In a previous section attention was called to the fact that from 20 to 30 years ago the tendency was to grant several cultural bachelor's degrees. The tendency on the part of colleges, today, is to grant but one cultural degree, the A. B., the approach to this degree being made by one or more prescribed groups. SCHOOLS WITH YEAR GROUPS (FRESHMAN, SOPHOMORE, ETC.). The University of Georgia has junior and senior elective groups from which courses are chosen in sequence to the extent of one-half of the college course. The Idaho State University has prescribed freshman and sopho- more groups, the junior and senior years being open to free electives. The University of Nevada has a special list of electives, which is open to freshman and sophomores. Beloit College has two general groups; that of the sophomore year with three subgroups, and that of the junior and senior years with three subgroups. These are related with respect to sequence and distribution. SCHOOLS WITH ELECTIVE GROUPS OF A SPECIAL TYPE. The following schools, the University of Colorado, the Colleges of William and Mary, Bryn Mawr, and Williams, have developed weU-organized group systems which are worthy of special mention. The system in vogue at Colorado State University is based on four general divisions: Letters, sciences, philosophy, history and econom- ics. Under each of these divisions are grouped from 6 to 14 majors and their corresponding minors, as follows. (Single example only, under each division is given.) Division of Letters: Group (a) major, Latin; minors J^^^®^- l-European history. Division of Sciences: Group (g) major, mathematics; minors < Y^ics. (.Astronomy. Division of Philosophy: Group (n) major, philosophy; minors \ ^'^^ ^ ^°^' IBiology. Division of History and Economics: Group (q) major, history; miiiors /Economics. ISociology. 166 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. At least 50 hours must he taken in some scheduled group, including at least 5 hours in each minor; thus emphasizing concentration as well as some degree of distribution. Bryn Mawi' lists 63 definite major course groups. Groups 1 to 20 being the possible combinations of any language with any language; group 22 is ancient history with Greek; group 23 is ancient history with Latin; and so on. Here as in the University of Colorado the majors are definitely outlined ond ready to be combined with the prescribed courses. The group system of the College of William and Mary is unique in that there are two general groups, the first or lower group comprising to a great extent the introductory courses such as are usually num- bered 1 and 2. The upper group comprises all courses not in the lower group. The basis of the Williams College group system is the 5 groups of the entrance requirements; this enables a more perfect articulation of courses to be made by those students whose work is not of the usual type. The relationships of the different courses are worked out to the smallest detail, as is shown in the accompanying chart. REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION. Candidates for admission to tlie freshman class must present satisfactory qualifica- tions in one of the following groups of subjects, the work covered by the subjects being given in detail in the pages following. Students admitted in any of the five admission groups are candidates for the degree of bachelor of arts. The notation used agrees with that of the College Entrance Examination Board.

The following exhibit of studies indicates the courses of instruction that are offered to freshmen. The studies of the freshman year are prescribed, except that there is an option between French and German for students in Admission Group I. The amounts of French and German which students entering by the various admis- sion groups must have completed before graduation are as follows: Admission Group I, French 1-2, or German 1-2; Admission Group II, French 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 and German 1-2; Admission Group III, French 1-2 and German 1-2, 3-4, and 5-G; Ad- mission Group IV, French 1-2 and 3-4 and German 1-2; Admission Group V, French 1-2 and German 1-2 and 3-4.

The distribution of prescribed subjects in the college is, on the whole, more extensive than for the entrance requirements. Pre- scribed distribution is made from 5 subjects in the entrance require- ments and from 13 subjects in the college requirements, excluding physical training, etc. The greatest number of subjects prescribed by any college is nine and the lowest is one. 1. FOR THE A. B. DEGREE. The following table shows the distribution of college subjects: 10 require two subjects. 8 require three subjects. 12 require four subjects. 11 requii-e five subjects. 5 require six subjects. 1 requires seven subjects. 2 require eight subjects. ENDOWED. 1 requires one subject. 7 require two subjects. 6 require three subjects. 12 require four subjects. 6 require five subjects. 19 require six subjects. 3 require seven subjects. 1 requires eight subjects. 1 requires nine subjects. The mode for the State schools js four subjects; for the endowed, six subjects. In the group prescribing four subjects, the mode (five institutions) is the following combination: English, language, social science, and science. But the largest number of combinations of prescribed subjects is that where five subjects are required, there 178 KEQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. being eight institutions which require English, language, history, science, and mathematics. The subjects are the same for the endowed school group requiring six subjects, the sixth subject being philosophy and psychology. Nine institutions prescribe this particular combination. The following is the average number of subjects prescribed for the A. B, degree: Average — A. B. (State), 4.6; A. B. (endowed), 5.0. General average, 4.85. 2. FOR THE B. S.

The mode for the State schools is four subjects and the character- istic group — English, language, science, and mathematics; for the endowed schools the mode is six subjects, and the characteristic group — English, language, history, science, mathematics, philosophy and psychology. The following is the average number of subjects prescribed for the B. S. degree: Average — B. S. (State), 4.10; B. S. (endowed), 5.45. General average, 4.75. 3. FOR THE B. ED. DEGREE.

ENDOWED. requires one subject. 1 requires one subject. 3 require two subjects. 1 requires four subjects. 4 require three subjects. 3 require six subjects. 5 require four subjects. 8 require five subjects. 7 require six subjects. 4 require seven subjects. The mode for the B. Ed. degree in the State schools is five sub- jects, but there is no characteristic group. The largest character- istic group is found in the schools requiring six subjects, the latter being English, language, history and social science, science, mathe- matics, and education. The distribution of prescribed subjects for the bachelor's degrees is education show less uniformity as to number and to the subjects required than any other degree comparable. COLLEGE GRADUATION KEQUIEEMEINTS. 179 This lack of uniformity is evident in the schools requiring from three to six subjects, and is shown especially in the following sub- jects: History and social science, science, mathematics, and philoso- phy. With respect to the State schools the requirement in Enghsh, language, and education is- nearly uniform, English and education being prescribed in every curriculum and language in two-thirds of all the curricula. History or social science, science, and philosophy and psychology are required in about one-half of the courses and mathematics in one-third of the courses. In the endowed schools, mathematics is prescribed by one school only — Tulane, of Louisiana. Philosophy and psychology are re- quired by two schools only — George Washington and Pittsburgh. Johns Hopkins-Goucher omits education from the list of pre- scribed studies, but it is provided for in the electives, 24 S. H. being- required. The following is the average number of subjects prescribed for the B. Ed. degree: Average— B. Ed. (State), 4.77; B. Ed. (endowed), 5.43. General average, 4.90. 4. FOR THE PH. B. AND LITT. B. DEGREES. With the exception of Chicago, the number of prescribed subjects is high, being from four to eight for the Ph. B., and five to eight for the Litt. B. History is not required for the Ph. B. and Litt. B. degrees by Chicago, Rutgers, Hamilton, or Princeton. Science is not required by Rutgers or Chicago. Mathematics is not required by Chicago or Brown; philosophy is omitted by Chicago, Union, and Lafayette. Bible is required by Lafayette, Hamilton, Muhlenberg, and Catholic, but is not required by Vermont, Rutgers, or Princeton for these degrees. Education is required by the Catholic University for the Ph. B. degree, while art and drafting are required for the Ph. B. by Rutgers. Ph. B. degree. STATE. 1 institution requires 4 subjects. ENDOWED. 1 requires 1 subject. 2 require 5 subjects. 2 require 6 subjects. 1 requires 7 subjects. 1 requires 8 subjects. The foUowmg table gives the average number of prescribed subjects for the Ph. B. and Litt. B. decrees: Degree. Ph. B. (State) Ph. B . (endowed) Litt. B. (State) Litt. B. (endowed).... Note.— Numbers in parenthesis represent one institution only, 180 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. The tendency in the Ph. B. degree is toward a large prescribed list of subjects. For the Litt. B. degree one institution requires eight subjects while the others require five. THE GENERAL TENDENCY IN DISTRIBUTION. The general tendency with respect to the distribution of prescribed subjects is to require five or six subjects according to the followmg comparative table of averages: Degree. State. Endowed. General average. A.B 4.60 4.01 4.77 (4. 00) (8. 00) 5.00 5.46 5.43 5.43 (5.00) 4 85 B. S 4 75 B.F.d Ph.B 4.90 5 25 Litt. li 6 50 With the exception of the Litt. B. degree, there is a tendency to a larger number of prescribed subjects in the endowed schools as compared with those of the State. DISTRIBUTION AND CONCENTRATION OF PRESCRIBED COLLEGE SUB- JECTS IN RELATION TO THE SEMIELECTIVES, MAJOR, MAJOR AND MINORS, AND GROUP ELECTIVES. The analysis of all the semielectives of the institutions on our list shows that the semielectives may coimt for distribution as well as for concentration. Ten State and two endowed schools increase distribution by means of one semielective, seven State and one endowed by two semi- electives, one endowed by. three semielectives, and one State and one endowed by four semielectives. Three State and four endowed gain either distribution or concen- tration by means of one semielective, one State and three endowed by two semielectives, and one endowed school by three semielectives. Three State and two endowed schools increase concentration in the prescribed subjects by means of one semielective, three endowed schools by two semielectives, two endowed schools hj three semi- electives, and one State school by four semielectives. The following table shows the frequency of the different distributive combmations. The first column of figures gives the number of pre- scribed subjects — the fuiidamental statement of distribution or con- centration, the second column of figures gives the number of semi- electives required, the third column tells whether the semielective is for distribution, for concentration, or both.

It is evident that where there is a smaller number of prescribed subjects the semielectives comit for distribution; where there is a greater number of prescribed subjects the semielectives count chiefly for concentration. Between these extremes the semielec- tives couat for either distribution or concentration, or both, THE FUNCTION OF THE MAJOS. The tendency of tlae major is toward concentration in nearly all instances. This is evident fr©m a study of the major options for the A. B. degree of the following schools: Florida; Delaware, Virgmia, Alabama, Arizona, California, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, South Carolina, Princeton, Tulane, Beloit, Swaii^hmorei, Brown, WesLeyan, D-e Pimw, Oberlin, Harvai'd, vand LdLand Stanford; and for the B. Ed. degree, Alabama, Iowa, and tlohns Hopkins-Goueher. The element of distribution appears definitely in combination with concentration in the. majors of the following schools: Oregon, Wisconsin, Iowa, Montana, Maine, Utah, Pemisylvania, and Colum- bia. THE FUNCTION OF THE MAJOR AND MIN0SS- The function of the major and minors is obviously for distribution as well as for concentration in all schools, although either character- istic may predominate. THE FUNCTIONS OF THE GKOUPS (A. B. AND B. S. DEGREES). In 15 State and 9 endowed schools the elective group systems are administered either for distribution or concentration; in 9 State and 5 endowed schools the elective groups are i^rimarily for distribution; 182 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. in 6 State and 6 endowed schools the primary function of the elective group is for concentration. SUMMARY OF CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIRE- MENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. TYPES OF CULTURAL FIRST DEGREES. Four cultural first degrees are granted by the institutions of our list, the A. B., B. S., Ph. B., and Litt. B. or L. H. B. The schools of education grant a first degree in education, but the nomenclature varies considerably in the different schools. The A. B. degree is granted by all but two of the .51 State schools and by all of the 50 endowed schools of our list; the B. S. degree by 23 State and 28 endowed schools; the Ph. B. by 1 State and 7 en- dowed schools; the Litt. B. by 1 State and 1 endowed school; the B. Ed. degree by 31 State and 6 endowed schools. Both the A. B. and B. S. degrees are given by 21 State and 28 endowed schools; the A. B., B. S., and Ph. B. by 1 State and 6 en- dowed schools; the A. B., B. S., and Litt. B. by 1 State school and 1 endowed. The A. B., B. S., Ph. B., and L. H. B., by 1 endowed school. VALUE AND NOMENCLATURE OF COLLEGE UNIT OF CREDIT. Two terms for measuring college credit are in general use, namely: the semester hour and the year hour. The former term is used by 43 State and 29 endowed schools of our list, or by 84.3 per cent, and 58 per cent of the respective totals. With respect to the nomen- clature, "semester hour" is used by 28 State and 20 endowed schools. The other names given are "unit," "term-hour," "credit," "hour unit," "credit hour," and "session hour." All schools using" the year hour credit designate it "year hour" with the exception of three endowed schools, two of which use the word "unit," while one uses "point." Other exceptions to the aforementioned terms are "course" and "major." NUMBER OF SEMESTER HOURS REQUIRED FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE (PHYSICAL TRAINING, ETC., EXCLUDED). The average number of semester hours required for each type of bachelor's decree is as follows: A. B. (State) 122.75 A. B. (endowed) -. 126.62 B. S. (State) 126.18 B. S. (endowed) 124.02 B. Ed. (State) 123.93 B. Ed. (endowed) 124.00 Ph. B. (State) (126.00)i Ph. B. (endowed) 132.00 Litt. B. (State) (132.00)i Litt. B. (endowed) (126.00)i ^ One instance only. COLLEGE GEADUATION EEQUIEEMENTS. 183 TIME REQUIRED TO OBTAIN A BACHELOR'S DEGREE. The usual time required to obtain a bachelor's degree is 4 years, though in many institutions the time may be shortened to Si or 3 years. Columbia College limits the time for obtaining an A. B. degree to 6 years. CREDIT FOR QUALITY. At the time of this writing four State and seven endowed schools recognized ''credit for quality" in estimating graduation credits, MINIMUM RESIDENCE. The tendency is to require at least one year of residence in order to obtain the bachelor's degree. The number of hours may vary from 20 to 36 semester hours as far as published records show. The senior year is required by relatively few schools. SUBJECTS PRESCRIBED IN THE COLLEGES OF LIBERAL ARTS. The subjects prescribed for the A. B. degree (State) are chosen from a list of 13 subjects; for the A. B. (endowed) from 12; for the B. S. (State) from 8; for the B. S. (endowed) from 12; for the B. Ed. (State), 10; for the B. Ed. (endowed), 10; for the Ph. B. (State), 4; for the Ph. B. (endowed), 9; for the Litt. B. (State), 6; for the Litt. B. (endowed), 5. The more commonly prescribed college subjects aside from the fundamental English, foreign language, social science, science, and mathematics, are philosophy and psychology, Bible, and education. PRESCRIBED COLLEGE SUBJECTS. English is characterized as to number of semester hours prescribed by one uniform standard. Foreign language is characterized by great differences in the number of semester hours prescribed; Latin is not prescribed singly as a foreign language requirement, but in com- bination or in alternation with other languages. Mathematics is not prescribed for the A. B. degree by three-fifths of the State schools nor by two-fifths of the endowed schools. It is prescribed for the B. S. degree by over three-fifths of the State schools and by nearly six-sevenths of the endowed schools. Only one-third of the State schools and one-sixth of the endowed schools prescribe mathematics for the B. Ed. degree. On the whole the tendencies in mathematics are more uniform than those of foreign language. Both science and social science show great diversity of standards if the total number of cases are considered; the extremes are not as great, however, as in foreign language. 184 REQUIREaiElSTTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. Philosophy and psychology are requu'ed for the A. B. degree by one-fourth of the State schools and by over two-fifths of the endowed schools. The standards as to the number of semester hours pre- scribed tend to be more uniform. Bible occupies a comparatively insignificant place in the liberal arts' college curriculum. Education is required for the degree in education by all State and endovv^ed schools. The standards vary greatly in this subject, the mode, 24 semester hours, being rather small. The endowed schools prescribe more education than the State schools. The miscellaneous prescribed subjects are hygiene, public speak- ing, art, drawing or drafting, mechanics, bibhography, library meth- ods, and matriculation lectures. The number of hours prescribed in these subjects is very small. The major subject is a requirement for the A. B. degree m 18 State and 12 endowed schools. The average number of hours for a major is 25 semester hours in State schools and 23.2 semester hiours in the endowed. The major and minors are utihzed by nearly one-half of both State and endowed schools, the average total (major and minors) for the A. B. is 40 semester hom's. The total prescribed and total elective requirements show an astonishing diversity of standards, the difference between the extremes for the A. B. (State) being 90 semester hom-s, for the A. B. (endowed) 124 semester hours; corresponding differences are also found in the total elective requirements. TOTAX, COLLEGE KEQUIREMENTS. A certaui uniformity in the total coUege requirements is evident from the table of averages, medians, and modes; nevertheless outside of this central group numerous standards exist which are extreme. The differences between extremes for the A. B. (State) is 43 semester hours, and for the A. B. (endowed) 61 semester hours. These dif- ferences amount to from one-third to one-half of the 4-year period if we take 120 semester hours as the standard course. ELECTIVES OF COLLEGE REQUIREMENTS SEMIELECTIVES. Sixteen State and 10 endowed schools require 1 semielective ; 8 State and 7 endowed schools require 2 semielectives to be chosen; 3 State and 4 endowed schools require 3 semielectives to be chosen. GROUP SYSTEMS. Nine State and 4 endowed schools have departmental group sys- tems with 6 to 21 departmental groups. Twenty-two State and 19 endowed schools have general group systems composed of one or more departments. COLLEGE GRADUATION EEQUIEEMENTS. 185 Six institutions offer elective degree groups (four State and tliree endowed) . Four institutions, one State and three endowed, have group sys- tems of a special type. DISTRIBUTION OF PRESCRIBED COIXEGE SUBJECTS. The following series shows the relation of the distribution of certain characteristic subjects with respect to the A. B. and B. S. degrees: About 87.5 per cent of the B. S. (State) courses include science. About 66.6 per cent of the A. B. (State) courses mclude science. Fully 66.6 per cent of the B. S. (endowed) courses include science. Nearly 66.6 per cent of the A. B. (endowed) courses mclude science. About 73.4 per cent of the B. S. (State) courses include mathe- matics. About 40 per cent of the A. B. (State) courses include mathematics. About 85 per cent of the B. S. (endowed) courses include mathe- matics. About 70 per cent of the A. B. (endowed) courses include mathe- matics. About 88 per cent of the B. S. (State) courses include foreign lan- guage. About 88 per cent of the A. B. (State) courses include foreign lan- guage. About 96 per cent of the B. S. (endowed) courses include foreign language. About 90 per cent of the A. B. (endowed) courses include foreign language. The general tendency is to prescribe from four to five subjects for the different bachelor's degrees. ENTRANCE AND COLLEGE GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS COMPARED. The entrance requirements are in aU cases more uniformly standard- ized than the college graduation requirements. As to the total prescribed work, the general average for the en- trance requirements is 68.02 per cent of the 4 years, w^hile the general average of the college is only 40.77 per eent of the 4 years of college requirements. This shows that the prescribed entrance require- ments average about 27 per cent more than those of the college. The distribution is essentially the same as to the numher and the subjects prescribed in both entrance and college requirements. The precedmg summary shows the following tendencies: Nearly 55 per cent of the higher institutions of our list grant but one cul- tural degree, namely, bachelor oi arts. The endowed institutions do not reach quite the same figure. There are but 44 per cent of the latter which grant only the bachelor of arts degree. 186 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. Approximately 40 per cent limit the cultural degrees to two, namely, the A. B. and B. S. degrees. The "credit for quality" plan of giving academic credits for grad- uation is in use by only 10 per cent of the institutions of our list. There is a tendency on the part of State higher institutions to prescribe four subjects, English, language, social science, and mathe- matics; on the part of the endowed institutions the tendency is toward five subjects, the fifth subject being philosophy or psychology, singly or in combination. About 10 per cent of both State and endowed institutions prescribe for the A. B. degree only one or two subjects, while about 5 per cent prescribe three subjects. Analysis of the method of distribution and concentration of pre- scribed college subjects shows that this distribution is determined by the prescribed subjects. Concentration is largely determined by the semielective, the major, or major and minor. The data show clearly that the prescribed requirements for the bachelor of arts degree in the institutions of our list contain few, if any, fixed standards of quantity except in those of the total gradua- tion requirements, which are at least 120 semester hours in the majority of instances. Aside from this, the quantitative standards in the different subjects and in the prescribed and elective require- ments are about as nimierous as the institutions themselves. SUGGESTIONS. 1. The nomenclature of the first degree offered by schools of educa- tion deserves the consideration of educators, inasmuch as the regular four-year curricula in the 56 colleges and schools of education of our list lead to at least six different degrees, all signifying similar curri- cula or courses of study. These degrees are: Bachelor of arts, bach- elor of science, bachelor of arts in education, bachelor of science in education, and bachelor of pedagogy. All the aforementioned de- grees are granted at the end of four-year curricula, but the degree of bachelor of pedagogy sometimes signifies the degree given at the end of a three-year normal course. In view of the general harmony in the aim and content of the curricula leading to the bachelor's degrees in the schools of education, it would seem advisable that the proper authorities encourage the adoption of a standard nomenclature for the educational bachelor's degree. 2. The growing tendency on the part of State and endowed higher institutions to use the semester hour as the basis of credit would seem to indicate the desirability of further uniformity in the same direction. Colleges and universities should avoid, if possible, the use of ambiguous statements, such as "credit," "point," etc., when referring to the semester hour. COLLEGE GRADUATION EEQUIREMEFTS. 187 3. In view of the growing importance of systematic education and cultural training of college students in physical culture and personal hy- giene and in view of the fact that this work is prescribed in some form or other by the majority of the institutions of our list, it would seem desirable that the work in these subjects be standardized in such a way as to be worthy of regular college credit. It is confusing in com- paring the total requirements of the different colleges and universi- ties to find that the larger total graduation requirements of one in- stitution includes the prescribed work in physical training, military science, etc., while in the smaller total graduation requirements the prescribed physical training is not listed. 4. The extreme differences in the total prescribed requirements for the A. B. and B. S. degrees give evidence of the variety of stand- ards which are presented by the institutions of our list. The question naturally arises: May there not be considerable difference in the quality of instruction when in one institution the average number of semester hours required per week is only 28, while in others it mounts up to 35 and even 43 ? With such extremes in quantitative standards, it may be expected that the qualitative standards will vary to a considerable degree. The indications are that the time has come for a more careful standardization of the semester hour credit from the standpoint of equality. 169494°— 20 13 Chapter IV. THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE COURSE— A UNIT OF EIGHT YEARS. In Chapters II and III the bachelor's degree has been considered from the standpomts of both the entrance and the college graduation requirements. In this chapter the bachelor's degree is considered as a unit of eight years instead of 2 units of four years each. Tables 51 to 70 show the relation of each subject to the eight-year period of both entrance and college work. Table 71 shows the relations of each subject both singly and in combination, which are prescribed both for entrance and college. The purpose of these tables is to point out a possible basis for the improvement of articulation between the secondary schools and the colleges, and also to indicate to what extent continuity exists in the individual or the several prescribed subjects during the entire eight- year period. In view of the fact that the curricula of both high school and the college have been organized largely from independent and perhaps antagonistic viewpoints, there appears in many institutions un- necessary duplication of work caused by a failure to conceive of the high school and college curricula in relation to a single purpose. On the other hand there are those institutions whose collegiate curricula show coherent relationsliip with those of the secondary schools.

That the requirements of the State schools for the B. S. and B. Ed. should be more than the requirements of the correspond- ing courses of the endowed schools is not what might be expected. The requhements of the Ph. B. (endowed) are the highest of all. It may also be noted that the highest joint requirement in English is that of Miami University, which prescribes 23.33 per cent for the B. Ed. degree. Graph 20 clearly points out a mode in English of from 10 to 15 per cent of the eight-year period for all of the degrees concerned. f/7p//S/? A.B.Sfak A.B.fndd BJ.Sf^fe RSI/?dl^ 8.fd.Sfd/e B.£d.

In the previous section consideration has been given to each prescribed subject from the' standpoint of the eight-year period. The accompanying table shows the subjects which are prescribed both for entrance and for college. It is evident from a study of this table that a large group of institutions prescribe the same sub- jects both for entrance and for college, the total amount varying from 29.19 per cent to 79.60 per cent of the entire eight-year period.

The column to the right gives the total number of institutions which grant the degrees indicated on the left-hand column. If we consider 194 the approximate total number in curricuJa, we find that English is prescribed both for entrance and for college in 96.9 per cent of this number, foreign language in 78.3 per cent, mathematics in 56.4 per cent, science in 28.2 per cent, and social science in 37.1 per cent. If we consider the 194 curricula in toto, we find that 60.3 per cent of aU the work is prescribed both for entrance and college. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION. The averages of the different prescribed subjects, considered from the standpoint of the eight-year period, vary from 75 per cent to 27.59 per cent, the degrees being considered separately. The general averages of the different prescribed subjects vary from 2.29 per cent to 17.26 per cent. The general average of the total of prescribed subjects in the 101 institutions for the eight-year period is 53.05 per cent; of the total elective subjects, 46.77 per cent. One subject is prescribed for the A. B. degree from 8.31 per cent to 25.58 per cent of the eight-year period (11 institutions). Two subjects are prescribed for the A. B. degree from 21.66 per cent to 49.56 per cent of the eight-year period (15 institutions). Three subjects are prescribed for the A. B. degree from 29.19 per cent to 68.58 per cent of the eight-year period (35 institutions). Four subjects are prescribed for the A. B. degree from 34.78 per cent to 79.60 per cent of the eight-year period (29 institutions). Five subjects are prescribed for the A. B. degree from 46.37 per cent to 77.54 per cent of the eight-year period (eight institutions). The data above show the possibility of continuous work in the subjects prescribed both for entrance and for college work. 240 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. THE UNIFICATION OF THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE COURSE. It is evident from the foregoing chapters that the standards of entrance and graduation requirements for the bachelor's degree are extremely variable. This variability is so noticeable in the gradua- tion requirements that it is difficult to determine whether there is in many instances a clear concept of what the bachelor's course ought to be. In the early history of the Nation, when higher education was largely under church control, the chief aim of the college was the education of the clergy. But to-day the aims of the liberal-arts col- leges may be classified under three groups, judged by the statements made by the colleges of our list. Although we can not expect to find in college catalogues the full elaboration of aims or purposes as might be expected in a textbook on education, yet it is interesting to find that 42 of the 51 State schools and 33 of the 50 endowed schools under discussion give fairly clear statements of the pm'pose of the coUege course. The largest group is that of 11 State and 6 endowed schools, vv^hich holds that the aim of the liberal-arts course is to give a broad foundation in liberal culture, to give opportunity for special- ization as a preparation for the professions both learned and tech- nical. The second group, comprising 4 State and 9 endowed schools, holds that the aim is to develop sound scholarship, mental discipline, and general culture. The third group, comprising 12 endowed schools, stresses the importance of religious and moral aims in addi- tion to scholarly attainments. With respect to the bachelor in edu- cation, there is more definiteness of aim, as the curricula are decidedly professional. THE FIRST STEP IN THE UNIFICATION OF THE HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE CURRICULA. When at last the regime of prescribed studies broke down for both entrance and coUege requirements, a more effective articulation was developed between the entrance and college programs of study. The adoption of the elective system in the entrance recphements was the first step in brmging into coherent relation the two great agencies of higher education. But now the articulation between high school and coUege has reached a state where there exists little opportunity for further advance in that respect. In many institutions flexibility has reached its limits; unrestricted entrance to college may now be gained by the presentation of a certificate from any first-class high school. But this flexibihty in the high-school curricula has been paralleled to a certain extent by the rapid expansion of the free elec- tive system in the college. Thus an undue flexibility has developed which has taken nearly all backbone out of higher education in many institutions.^ ' The plan of comprehensive examinations, adopted by several of the leading colleges of the East, should be a partial remedy for the weaknesses caused by undue flexibility in the entrance requirements. THE BACHELOK's DEGREE COURSE, ' 241 THE SECOND STEP IN UNIFICATION. The next step in unification is the providing of a. groundwork of studies which will weld the systems of secondary and college educa- tion into a whole without losing the benefits of the elective system. Such a plan must provide a broad distribution of fundamental cul- tural, and tool subjects from the definite standpoint of a seven or eight-year course. An excellent distribution now exists in the ma- jority of schools both for the entrance and college requirements, although in some cases it may be possible for students to specialize too early at the expense of a broad foundation in liberal culture. The tables on page 230, etc., show the possibihty of a more unified bachelor's course on the basis of four or five of the fundamental subjects which are prescribed both for entrance and for the college. English, lan- guage, mathematics, history (social science), and science are pre- scribed both for entrance and graduation by nearly 40 per cent of the institutions listed, the amount of the joint prescription varying from 34 to 79 per cent of the eight-year period. About 75 per cent of these colleges control the prescribed work in at least three fundamental subjects, such as English, language, and mathematics, from 27 to 79 per cent of the eight-year period. In over 90 per cent of the 101 colleges of our list the average total requirements of subjects pre- scribed jointly cover over 60 per cent of the eight-year period. This unity, as far as prescribed subjects are concerned, gives a true basis for continuity in the different subjects, although in some instances needless duplication results. With this evidence of the actual con- trol by the college of the combined curricula, it is clear that it lies within the power of the college to further determine such distribution and concentration of studies over the eight-year period that will insure a thorough as well as a broad scholarship. In order that this result may be accomplished, both educator and student should con- ceive of the college course as a single unit of seven or eight years. Within this period the candidate for the bachelor's degree should be permitted to elect, preferably at the beginning of the eleventh grade, a fundamental distribution group of a minimum of four or a maximum of six subjects. Students electing the sequences recommended by the college would be counted and graded as regular candidates for the A. B. degree, while those who follow the usual high school pro- gram would plan their work in harmony with the general or voca- tional aims of the high school. If a student should enter high school, not desiring to become a candidate for the A. B. degree, and should change his mind in the twelfth grade, he would then be obliged to complete the necessary sequences in order to be in line for the A. B. degree. While some loss of time might be entailed, yet the student would not have to lose more than was necessary to give himself 242 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. a mastery in those fundamentals deemed essential by tlie college. A similar delay is often experienced by the candidate for the M. A. degree who finds that he has not given enough time to his major subject during the four years of undergraduate work to insure gradu- ation in one year after receiving the A. B. degree. In such cases the candidate must spend a half year or more in supplementing his major work. The sequences determined by the college are to be as free as pos- sible from gaps in order that continuity and concentration be insured. Useless duplication of subjects should be avoided. A final examina- tion covering the entire ground of each sequence might well be re- quired of all A. B. candidates in addition to the usual term or annual examinations. No great difference exists between the plan suggested and the customary plan of the major and minor option. At least one major sequence six or seven years in length should be required. A second sequence five or six years in length would support the first. These sequences should be the basis of professional specialization. Two tool sequences from three to four years in length ought to begin early in the course so that they might be of help to the student in his major studies. From the standpoint of distribution the sequences chosen should lead to a broad foundation in liberal culture, while from the stand- point of concentration they should lead to scholarship and profes- sional attainments. Suitable sequences may be determined for those who expect to be ministers, literary workers, teachers, lawyers, doctors, agricul- turalists, engineers, commercial leaders, social workers, home econ- omists, and the like. If such sequences be properly developed there will also be opportunity in each case to develop the motor side of higher education, an element often neglected in the nonprofessional courses of liberal arts colleges. The knowledge gained ' by the student in college should have some practical tests and applications in real life before graduation day, in order that he may not be thrown into the whirlpool of the world's activities with theories and visions only. The entrance of the professional aim into the courses would tend to invigorate the entire program by giving each student im- portant incentives based on real interest in the work at hand. The difference between the vigor and tone of the work of the liberal arts colleges and the professional schools, such as law and medicine, is very noticeable. The addition of a lawful stimulus due to profes- sional interest should be a powerful element in making for discipline and first-class scholarship. While independent and reflective scholar- ship must be safeguarded from the mere routine of professionalism, there is great need of more continuous and purposeful effort on the part of the students of liberal arts colleges THE bachelor's DEGREE COURSE. 243 PRESENT TENDENCIES TOWARD A UNIFIED EIGHT-YEAR COURSE. For a number of years several universities and colleges of higli standing have taken the initiative in outlining a part of the bachelor's degree course in terms of the entire period (eight years). ^ Ohio State Univei'sity and Ohio University make the following require- ments : In high school and college together the student must secure credit in at least two languages other than English. For those who enter with 6 units in language other than English, the college requirement is 8 hours; for those with 5 units, 12 hours; for those with 3 units, 20 hours; for those with 10 units, 24 hours; for those with 1 unit, 28 hours; for those with no units, 32 hours. Natural science, social science, and math- ematics are also dealt with from the standpoint of the 8-year period. (The high school unit equals 4 semester hours.) The University of California offers a unified course through its combined high school and junior college requirements. The University of Pittsburg makes the following requii-ements : Eighteen credits (secondary and college included) must be taken in each of the distribution fields exclusive of specifically required subjects ; courses in English 1 and 2 are counted in satisfaction of major requirement. Likewise 18 credits (semester horns) in some foreign language (courses taken in secondary schools to be included), or 12 such credits for those who offer 12 credits in Latin or Greek ; and 12 in some other foreign language. (The high school unit equals 6 semester hours. ) Other definite requirements are made for both the A. B. and B. S. degrees on the basis of both secondary and college work. Vanderbilt University states that the required subjects of the freshman year are grouped with special reference to the continuation of the leading subjects offered for admission. Teachers College, George Washington University, permits the substitution of college electives in place of foreign language, history, and biology, which are a part of the list of prescribed subjects, "to the extent that approved secondary school work has been done in them." But "the foreign language requirement must fall in one language, while in history it is required that a sm'vey of the world's history be obtained.'" Beloit College requires that "where 4 units of foreign language have been presented for entrance, the student must complete 12 hours of foreign language work of college grade; where 2 units have been presented, he must complete 18 hours; where no foreign language has been presented, he must complete 20 hours. Any student pre- senting less than 2 units of foreign language at entrance shall be required to complete 132 hours for graduation " (8 hours more than the usual requirement). Carleton College requires that students must complete for the A. B. degree six years in foreign language in secondary school and college, of which two years must be in Latin and two years must be taken in college. The requirements for the B. S. degree are stated in a similar manner, but only four years are required, and Latin is not specified. The University of Chicago has developed the idea of continuation to a marked degree. "The attention of students is drawn to the fact, as explained below, that certain subjects are required which may be taken either in the high school or in the college. It is urgently recommended that as many as possible be taken diuing the high-school course. Students who are preparing for a professional degree or for specialized work will materially increase the opportunity for freedom of election by adopting the following suggestions for their high-school work: "A student is advised to take throughout his last year of high school some subject other than English which will form the basis of the continuation group of his first 244 REQUIREMENTS FOE THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. year in collie. Proper subjects for this continuation group are history, Greek, Latin, French, German, mathematics, physics, chemistry, physiograph;/, and biology. This study may form a part of the principal or the secondary group." The college requirements are built upon these continuation groups in such an maner as to obtain adequate distribution and concentration. Harvard University obtains continuity and concentration to a considerable extent by stressing the entrance requirements in English, French, and German. Students who pass the special examinations in these subjects on entering college are able to pursue their elective subjects with greater freedom. The examples just cited show a growing recognition of the unity of the bachelor's degree course. With few exceptions, however, foreign language is the only subject that has definite recognition. When approved sequences in English, mathematics, science, social science, and vocational subjects are also prepared, it will be possible to unify the college course to a much greater extent throughout the entire eight-year period. Such sequences in fundamental and tool subjects would tend to bring an essential unity into the bachelor's degree course over the entire country. UNIFICATION IN RELATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF COLLEGES. The institutions under discussion may be divided into three general groups with respect to the program of unification of the bachelor's degree course. Unification may be readily obtained in colleges which have one or two prescribed subjects by utilizing a plan similar to that of the University of Chicago, but the sequences should be carefully deter- mined from the standpoint of the eight years and mth the different professional aims in view. Unification may be further obtained in institutions which require defuiite degree or core groups by readjusting the groups in harmony with the approved sequences. Each group would then have a profes- sional or vocational objective. While there is no objection to the building of a group around a specific major subject, yet in the new groups the aim should be that each should have a definite vocational or professional aim in addition to the elements of discipline and culture. Unification may be obtained in the group of institutions on our list which now prescribe jointly over 50 per cent of the eight-year's work, by a shght readjustment of the present sequences and by requiring as far as possible in each sequence a continuous series of courses free from needless gaps or reduplications. In the smaller colleges there would, of course, be more difficulty in administering so many difl^erent kinds of sequences. Each institution should select the sequences which are adapted to its particular character. THE bachelor's DEGREE COURSE. 245 THE AIM OF THE A. B. DEGREE. Up to the present time the aim of the A. B. course has been to produce either educated speciahstS; or men who have gained general abiUties due to a strong mental discipline, although each college may differ slightly in the understanding and in the ijiterpretation of these purposes. The first aim is criticized because it makes the student strong at one point only — his speciality. He is in danger of becoming merely an educated "hewer of wood and drawer of water" and as President Wilson has said, "the man of special skill may be changed into an unskilled laborer over night." "Men with mere technical knowledge will be mere servants perpetually and may at any time become useless servants, their skill gone out of use and fashion." The other aim is criticized in that it fails to encourage a definite purpose in life; while the mind has received a broad culture through study of ideals, and through discipline by rigorous methods of study, it lacks the important view points and peculiar discipline obtained by contact with more material reality. Men whose faculties have been awakened and released need an opportunity to apply, along practical lines, and under guidance, some of the acquired generalized experience. While there may be some who do not find the dominant interest of their lives during the period of college life, yet every encouragement should be offered that will help in finding it. But how. may these diffi.culties be overcome? First, by insisting on a broad, liberal foundation of study for the specialist; second, by improving the character of the special or major sequences so that broken and slipshod work will be impossible. Many of the valuable disciplinary and cultural values which have seemed the exclusive property of the long sequences in ancient languages and mathematics are to-day being found in modern languages, science, and social science, and there is important discipline in vocational studies if properly taught. Dr. Nathaniel Butler has pointed out that one of the most important disciplines boys and young mien of to-day lack is that gained by doing chores. Many of our most fam.ous classical scholars were farm boys, and some may ask whether the analysis of cause and effect in feeding calves and in milking cows at 4 a. m. and in plan- ning the sowing and harvesting of crops, has not played an equally important part in connection with literary training in maldng strong and able men. The present substitute for chores may be found perhaps in the scientific vocational preparation of the student both in high school and college. In view of the impending changes in the life of the Nation which may result from the war, one thing is very evidont-r-the need of a type of higher education that will quickly and thoroughly prepare 246 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE. sound leaders who can meet the increasing calls in the higher voca- tions of life. Added national and international responsibilities which are now pressing with a heavy weight on the American people, call for young men and women whose training is of the highest from a moral standpoint. A more thorough mastery of the social sciences and of law will be necessary in order that democracy may continue in triumphant growth. A deeper knowledge and appreciation of the language, literature, and culture of the nations which are our neighbors on this hemisphere should be taught before we can fully obtain the harmonious relations which are now of greater importance than ever. In a word the A. B. degree curriculum should aim to bring its subject matter, culture, and disciplines into the closest contact with real life. REFERENCES. HIGHER EDUCATION. 1.

A comparison of this table with the table of the examination of the entrants at the University of California shows the importance of the work of the college depai'tments of physical training.
