152 ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT.
21. Organic Chemistry. Laboratory work. Three hours.
Courses 20 and 21 are required of all students specializing in chem
istry ; but course 20 may be taken separately by others, by special
permission granted in each case. These courses are open only to
those who have had courses 1,3, and 4, or 2, 5, and 6.
The lectures and recitations serve as an introduction to the general
subject of the chemistry of the compounds of carbon. In the labora
tory
the student prepares a large number of typical compounds of
carbon, and familiarizes himself with their properties and reactions.
Assistant Professor Orndorff and Mr. TEEPLE.
21a. Elementary Organic Chemistry. Lectures and recitations.
Fall term. M., W., F., 12. This course is intended only for medical
and veterinary students, and is preparatory to course 45. Assistant
Professor Orndorff.
22. Special Chapters in Organic Chemistry. Lectures. T.,
Th., 9, Ch. L. R. 1. This course is open only to those who have
completed courses 20 and 21. In this course especial attention is
given to certain important chapters of organic chemistry, for which
an elementary knowledge of the subject is necessary. Frequent
references are made to the original literature, and an attempt is made
-to acquaint the student with the classical researches of organic chem
istry. Assistant Professor Orndorff.
23. Advanced Organic Chemistry. Laboratory work. The course
in the preparation of organic compounds is here continued. These
preparations being more difficult require more experience and skill
on the part of the student. The original literature is consulted, and
the student is finally required to repeat some extended and important
piece of work and to compare his results with those published, before
taking up
original work in this field. Assistant Professor Orndorff.
24a. The Coal Tar Dyestuffs.. Lectures. Fall and Winter.
S., 12, Ch. L. R. 1.
The coal tar dyestuffs have become so important, from both a theo
retical and a practical standpoint, as to justify their consideration in
a separate course of lectures. The methods of making the dyestuffs,
their properties, constitution and relations to each other are discussed,
the treatment being scientific,

rather than technical. Assistant
24b. Stereochemistry. Lectures. Spring. S., 12., Ch. L. R. 1.
The stereochemistry of the compounds of carbon and nitrogen
form the subject of this course of lectures. The necessity for consid
ering
the space relations of the atoms in certain classes of physical
isomers is shown and the close agreement of the facts and theory is
brought out. Assistant Professor Orndorff.
