ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT.
II. Elementary Courses open to Freshmen and Sophomores
in Arts and Sciences.
6. For Freshmen who enter the University on the minor require
ments in mathematics (plane geometry and elementary algebra).
This course is substantially equivalent to the major entrance require
ments in mathematics, and it is sufficient for elementary work in
physics. Two sections, M. , W. , F., at 8, White 21, Professor Jones ;
Assistant Professor Tanner-
White 18 A,
{a) Fall term, Solid Geometry.
{b) Winter term, Advanced Algebra.
Plane Trigonometry.
{c) Spring term,
7. For Freshmen who enter on the major requirements (solid
geometry, advanced algebra, and plane and spherical trigonometry).
Supplementary to those requirements and necessary to further elective
work in mathematics. T., Th at , 8, White 21, Professor Jones.
{a) Fall term, Solid Geometry.
{b) Winter term, Advanced Algebra.
Plane and Spherical Trigonometry.
{c) Spring term,
8. For Freshmen who enter on the minor requirements. Equiva
lent to courses 6 and 7 combined. Daily, ex. Sat., at 9. White 21.
Professor Jones.
{a) Fall term, Solid Geometry.
{b) Winter term, Advanced Algebra.
Plane and Spherical Trigonometry.
{c) Spring term,
9. Problems in Geometry, Algebra, and Trigonometry. Sup
plementary to courses 7 and 8, and may be taken at the same time with
either of those courses. This course is for the benefit of those stu
dents, particularly freshmen, who, being interested in mathematical
studies, wish to a lay good foundation for the higher work that fol
lows. The problems in geometry occupy the fall term ; those in alge
bra the winter term ; and those in trigonometry the spring term. Two
hours. Sat. 8-10. White 21. Professor Jones.
10. Analytic Geometry and Calculus. For sophomores who
have had courses 7 or 8, but may be taken by freshmen who are well
qualified, at the same time with course 7. M., W. , F., at 8. White
18. Assistant Professor McMahon.
11. Differential Equations. An Elementary Course arranged for
students in engineering and in physics, and for those who intend to
study advanced mathematics. The course is devoted, mainly to the
solution of the simpler ordinary and partial differential equations. An
elementary
knowledge of the integral calculus is a prerequisite for
entrance on this course. Murray's Differential Equations is used as
a text book. Two hours. Dr. Murray.
