~No graduate degrees are offered in pathology. Students in other de- partments should consult their departmental advisers about the accept- ability of the courses as minor work.

31.1. GENERAL AND SPECIALPATHOLOGY. Various phases of general and special pathology are presented by lectures, demonstrations, discussions, and laboratory work. Both the gross and the microscopic lesions characteristic of various diseases are studied and correlated. The class attends and may assist with post-mortem examinations performed during the year. Seven- teen hours of lectures and laboratory work a week during the fall quarter, and ten hours of lectures and laboratory work a week during the winter quarter of the second year.
