Excerpt from Some Problems of the Graduate School: An Informal Report to the Faculty Students who have already completed at least a full year of gradu ate work for an advanced degree, either in this University or in some other institution whose graduate work is acceptable, may receive residence credit for work thus authorized. But no candidate for the Doctor's degree will receive credit for more than two terms of resi dence during any twelve consecutive months. In explanation of this legislation, it may be pointed out that it requires that the teacher who undertakes the direction of such studies shall personally assume responsibility for their supervision. Asfor the time he is to stand in loco universitatis, he is asked to'present to the General Committee a statement of the amount and character of the supervision which he is prepared to give, and to state the approximate dates during which it is proposed to carry on the work. And, secondly, this privilege is limited to students who have already spent a full year in graduate work as candidates for an advanced degree. The object of this latter paragraph, as I understand it, is to ensure that those to whom this privilege is to be given are prop erly qualified to take advantage of its provisions. There may be exceptional cases, but usually a student in the first year of graduate work requires the regular instruction to be derived from formal classes before he is in a position to work in an independent way. For the more advanced student, on the other hand, the opportunity of working uninterruptedly under the immediate supervision of a member of his Special Committee may be the most valuable kind of graduate work.
