SPECIAL LECTURES.

From time to time during the term lectures will be delivered before the school by eminent judges and lawyers.

THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF LAWS.

The degree of Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) is conferred by the University upon candidates who have completed courses 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, and have passed all examinations with credit. Two years of residence are ordinarily required of all students who desire to offer themselves as candidates for the degree. Every candidate must submit a thesis on some subject selected by the senior Professor of Law. Applicants for the degree of Bachelor of Laws must be twenty years of age, and must have completed an academic course equivalent to that of the Freshman and Sophomore years in the College.

MOOT COURT.

The Moot Court is an important factor in legal educational methods; it familiarizes the student with the practical side of law. It is the purpose of the University Court to acquaint the student with the legal details so necessary to be acquired yet so difficult of access. Regular sessions are held, and every student in the Law School has a frequent opportunity for practice. The work is thorough and is carried on from the inception of the suit to the final judgment in the Appellate Court. The Court is held every Saturday night.

Where full tuition, $37.50, is paid, students may also take the elementary course if it is desired.

ADMISSION AND REGISTRATION.

Candidates for admission into the Law School should present themselves on the same day and at the same hour with candidates for admission into the College, either in September or January. Candidates for admission and students already members of the school are expected to register according to the regulations on page 58. The session of the Law School is of the same length with the College year. All members of the Law School enjoy the same privileges with other students in the University.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL OF LAW.

During the summer two classes in law are conducted by the professors of this department. The text-books used are the same with those required in course 2, prescribed by the Supreme Court. The summer session begins on the ninth day of June and ends on the Friday before the last Monday in August. The fee for admission into either class is thirty dollars for tuition and three dollars for registration: for admission into both classes, fifty dollars for tuition and three dollars for registration. The tuition is $30 for both courses to students who have attended the regular session for two terms and to licensed attorneys desiring to review the course. All fees are payable in advance.

FOUNDATION.

Instruction in medicine is given in two distinct schools, one situated at the seat of the University, the other in the city of Raleigh. The department at Chapel Hill furnishes thoroughly good instruction in the fundamental branches of Medicine-those branches which constitute the scientific basis of the actual practice of medicine and surgery, which should be taught in the first two years of the medical curriculum. The school possesses exceptional advantages for this work. There is an adequate corps of trained and faithful instructors; there are good laboratories for the various branches of study; the students live in the environment of a University, and enjoy all the advantages it gives to young men; above all, the classes are necessarily small, so that the methods of instruction demanded by modern educational ideals are carried on with comparative ease. Moreover all the laboratories of the academic department are open to medical students as well as the courses of instruction offered by the departments of Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

The School has received the endorsement of the State Medical Society. No student who has successfully completed the course has been rejected by the State Board of Medical Examiners, a statement which gains force from the fact that the majority of the subjects upon which that Board conducts examinations are completed by students during their attendance upon this School. The School was founded in 1890; in 1898 it was admitted to membership in the Association of American Medical Colleges; recently it has been incorporated as an integral part of the University on the same footing with the graduate and the other professional schools.

The instruction of the third and fourth years is conducted at Raleigh with all the hospital and clinical advantages of a city. This school is intended to receive the student after the completion of the course at Chapel Hill in the more fundamental elements of scientific medical education.

The course is then continued for two years in an environment suited to thorough instruction in the branches necessary to the completion of the course for a degree.

THE DEPARTMENT AT CHAPEL HILL.

THE GENERAL PLAN OF INSTRUCTION.

For the course of instruction provided by the Medical School all those advantages are claimed which are derived from good equipment and small classes. Each student has the opportunity of seeing the various demonstrations and experiments, and receives direct personal instruction. The course extends over a period of two college years, and its successful com pletion entitles students to entrance into the third year of high-grade colleges.

In the arrangement of the courses of study the attempt is made to follow what would seem to be their natural sequence. In the first year the student devotes most of his time to anatomical and chemical studies. The study of Gross and Microscopic Anatomy proceed side by side. In the spring, by which time the student has obtained sufficent knowledge of Chemistry and Anatomy, the study of Physiology is begun. In the second year the study of Anatomy and Physiology is continued. The work in Chemistry is laboratory in character, is devoted to Qualitative Analysis, Physiological Chemistry and Toxicology, and continues throughout the year. Pathology is taken up at the beginning of this year, and continued for nine months. Materia Medica is begun in the spring term, after the course in Physiology has been completed. In this year also the class practices the exercises of Minor Surgery.

It is yet necessary to continue courses in Physics and General Chemistry for the benefit of those students who have not had the advantages of adequate instruction in those subjects; but all are advised to pursue these courses before entering the Medical School. Students who have had
