Three Philosophy courses are holding the usual section meetings but are dispensing with lectures. In these, reading assignments corresponding to from one to two weeks work are given the students in addition to their usual amount of weekly reading.

The following is a detailed list of those courses which observe the Reading Period yet continue meetings: Botany 2, 3, 7, 10, (laboratory work only continues): Chemistry 3a, 5, 6, 10, 12, 13, 21 (laboratory work continues): English 62 (a few meetings for presentation of reports): Geography 14 some conferences): History of Religions 4 (occasional meetings): Meteorology 3 (no lectures, but laboratory work and one meeting a week to continue): Mineralogy 8 (laboratory work continues): Paleontology 1 (one laboratory section at least): Philosophy A, B. 1a (no lectures, sections to continue): Zoology 5, 17 (laboratory work continues).
