Honors in Physics.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

I. Second-year Honors in Physics are awarded on two conditions. The first condition is distinguished excellence in the work of the following courses: Required Physics and Chemistry, Physics B, Physics 2, and either one other course in Physics or Mathematics 2. The second condition is passing with distinction a special examination in the Principals of Physics, the Absolute System of Physical Measurement, and the Elementary Principles of Plane Trigonometry and Analytic Geometry. Course B may be omitted by those who have passed satisfactorily the Elective Admission Examination in Physics.

For Honors at Graduation in Physics, the candidate must have received Second-Year Honors in Physics, must in addition have taken three advanced courses in Physics, and one other advanced course, either in Physics or in Mathematics (not counted for Honors in Mathematics) and must also present a satisfactory thesis; but it is essential that the candidate shall have taken courses 4, 5 and 6 in Physics, and course 2 in Mathematics.

II. In 1886, candidates for Second-Year Honors in Physics, who have already taken the equivalent of the courses now required for Second Year Honors, may register their names at the Dean's office as late as the third day of June. The special examination will be held near the end of the Academic Year.
