This society is being backed by Dr. Wood, Director of the County Hospital, as well as having the support of other prominent physicians in the city. Dr. Wood ls extending rather unusual privileges to members of the society in allowing them to visit the different departments of the county hospital in order that the atuden'3 may study present conditions and methods and thus gain first hanJ knowledge of the subject, announces Gurholt.
Pre-Medical work constitutes more than simply carrying a few courses, Gurholt pointed out, as It is really a period of prellmin ary ti billing for actual profession (Continued on Page Three)

New Degree Rule Goes Into Effect
Graduation Before Completion of Requirements No Longer Possible.
Graduation before completion of requirements, a practice which has heretofore made it necessary for students to receive their degrees lu June before finishing the work in summer school has been discontinued by the university scholarship committee. Those who received their degrees last June, It was announced yesterday by Theron Clark, registrar, are the last to enjoy the privilege.
This year, no name will appear on the graduating list unless that student has met all his requirements before the list Is prepared. Notices of this change were made during the last semeste. of last year in order to give students time to plan their schedules so that all requirements could be met during the regular session.
Any student will be entitled to receive a certificate of completion at the close of any session In which he completes the work for a degree and the certificate of completion will authorise the student to use the degree from that date. The diploma form will not be Issued unUl the next Commencement Day.
The scholarship committee was forced to take this step because several students took advantage of the rule and did not complete their requirements as had been specified.
Students are urged to check their requirement lists to be sure that every course requirement has been met.
