lectures, the latter in this college. They must have studied medicine three years, under the direction of a regular physician or surgeon, and have attained the age of twentyone years.

Each candidate is required to write a thesis on some subject connected with medicine, and to deposit it, together with his graduation fee, with the Dean of the Faculty, one month before the close of the session. Full certificates of

the time of study, of age, and of moral character, must also be furnished. They must also pass a satisfactory examination before the Medical Faculty and Board of Medical Examiners appointed by the state medical society.

Two full courses of lectures are absolutely required, and no period of practice will be taken as an equivalent for

one course.

To prevent any misunderstanding with regard to the requirements for graduation, the Faculty desire to state that the only courses of lectures recognized, are those taken at medical colleges recognized by the American Medical Association. The tickets, and diplomas of eclectic, homœopathic, or botanic colleges, or colleges devoted to any special system of medicine, are considered irregular, and will not be recognized under any circumstances. Certificates from instructors, who practice any peculiar system of medicine, or who advertise, or violate in any way the code of ethics adopted by the profession, will not be received, under any circumstances, even if the instructors be regular graduates in medicine.

Graduates of other regular colleges, who desire a degree from this institution, must pass a satisfactory examination in the branches of Medicine, Surgery, and Obstetrics; and if they be graduates of more than three years' standing, they must exhibit a certificate of membership in some medical society entitled to representation in the American Medical Association. They will be required to pay the matriculation and the graduation fee. No thesis is required.

Prizes are offered each year by various professors, for

competition by the students attending the regular course(See prizes, on a subsequent page.)

Fees, for matriculation, payable each term, $5; for the the full course of lectures, $70; for graduation, $25; for the preliminary course, $30. Materials for dissection furnished at cost.

Students who have already attended two full courses of lectures in other regular schools, are admitted on paying the matriculation fee and $25.

Students who have attended two full courses in this school, or who, having attended one full course in some regularly established medical school, and one full course in this school, are admitted to a third course of lectures on paying the matriculation fee only.

Graduates of this school are admitted without fee. Graduates of other regular schools, and theological students, are admitted on general ticket, by paying the matriculation fee.

Further information concerning the school may be obtained from Dr. A. P. Grinnell, Dean of the Faculty, Burlington, Vt.

The Medical Department of Yale College gives instruction at the college building during the winter and summer terms. The winter term commences on the third Thursday of October, and closes on the third Thursday of February. During this term the instruction consists of public lectures, with daily examinations and medical and surgical clinics.

In the spring term, instruction is given by recitations and lectures. In this term the students are classified, so that those who are just entering upon the study are taught during their first year only the more elementary branches ; while the studies of the second year include the more practical branches; a third year being devoted to reviewing the studies of the entire course, with the addition of such collateral branches and advanced courses of reading as the necessities or attainments of individual pupils may require. Two or more recitations will be held daily for each class.

Students are allowed to visit the State Hospital, to which large additions have recently been made, and attend the practice of the surgeons and physicians. A surgical clinic is held at the college every Wednesday at 12 M., and a medical clinic every Friday at 12 M. Medical and surgical clinics are also held at the hospital every week during the lecture course.

The museum contains a large collection of natural and morbid specimens, numerous casts, plates, and models of elegant execution, and an extensive cabinet of materia medica, all of which are made practically useful in illustrating the subjects taught. The libraries of the university and the cabinets of mineralogy and natural history are also open for the use of students.

New Haven offers special advantages to medical students for the study of zoology, comparative anatomy, botany, and other branches, under distinguished teachers, in connection with the Sheffield Scientific School.

Requirements for Graduation. Every candidate for a degree is required to possess, in addition to a good English education, a competent knowledge of the Latin language and of the principles of natural philosophy; to present to the Dean, two weeks before examination, a thesis, written by himself, upon some medical subject; to present a satisfactory certificate that he is twenty-one years of age, and possesses a good moral character. He must have attended two full courses of public lectures, at least, one of which must have been in this institution. He must present a satisfactory certificate from a respectable and regular practitioner of medicine that he has attended to the study of physic and surgery for three years, including the time spent in attendance upon medical lectures. The spring course is counted as part of the time required for medical study; but it does not count as one of the courses of public lectures required for graduation. In case he is a graduate of college his diploma is received as equivalent to a certificate of medical study for one year.

The committee of examination consists of the Faculty, and an equal number of the members of the Connecticut Medical Society, appointed by the President and Fellows of the same; and the President of the society is ex officio President of the Committee. The examinations are conducted in writing.

Two examinations for degrees are held annually: one at the close of the winter term, and the other on the Tuesday before Commencement, at the close of the spring

term.

Fees (always required in advance), for matriculation, paid annually, $5; course of lectures in winter term, $10; for the spring term, $60; contingent expenses of laboratory, spring term, $10; demonstrator's ticket, $5; graduation fee, $25.

Those who have attended two full courses of lectures in this institution, and those who have attended one full course of lectures in this institution and a full course in a similar medical college, are entitled to the lectures of any future winter term on the payment of five dollars for incidental expenses. Those who have attended two full courses in any other accredited medical college, may receive all the tickets for the winter term, including matriculation, for $50.

Other information regarding the institution may be obtained from the Dean, Dr. C. A. Lindsley, 132 Olive Street, New Haven.
