The above plan of studies is intended for such young men as intend to take a degree. They will be admitted to such classes as they shall be prepared to enter, and shall receive a diploma, if on examination at the end of the course they shall be deemed by the Faculty worthy of such distinction. Should any prefer an irregular course, they can join the several classes in those particular studies which they may desire to pro. secute. While this plan will be in the main followed, such changes will be made in it as the tastes and abilities of the classes may dictate. Each student is expected to have three studies, and to recite daily in each. Generally, it is inexpedient for students to have more than four studies.
