Determinative Mineralogy.—A short course dealing with theelements of crystallography is given, together with the physical andchemical characteristics of minerals, especially of the rock-makingminerals composing our soils. Laboratory work in blowpipe analysisand physical determination of minerals follows the crystallography. Subjects* I. Geology.—Two recitation credits per week, second term.
