PART OF G. A. c. CURRICULUM
Same Requirements for Study "s III
Agricultural Course

For more than two years the au-
thorities of the Colorado Asricui-
tural college have been considering
the matter of establishing a tul'
course in forestry. During tha'
time two short courses in forestr!
have been held at the college IN the
winter season. In each case these
courses were an unqualified success
both in attendance and interest
There has, however, been increasing
demand for technical forestry
course similar to those offered IN
some of the eastern schools Such u
course has now been outlined ana
will be ready for beginning students
at the opening of the present iall
term, September 10.
The entrance requirements are
the same as for the regular four
wear courses in other lines. The
technical work begins in the fali
term of the junior year. Ihe pro
fession of forestry demands training
in wide range of subjects. Many
of these are subjects such as are
taugh in technical agricultural
course. In fact forestry may be
properly considered as special
branch of agriculture in which trees
form the only crop. Ii is proper,
therefore, that forestry be made one
of the principal courses in an agri-
cultural college.
This course in forestry is planned
with especial reference to conditions
in the western irrigated sections of
our country in which the problems
are somewhat peculiar to such re-
gions. Sufficient time is given TO
the study of English. modern Ian
guages and history to place students
on a par with those in other courses.
The mathematics includes algebra
trigonometry and surveying with
special reference to the requirements
of practical forestry. In addition
some work is given in map making.
drawing, and extensive
training in botany, physics, and
together with fundamen-
tai work in meteorology, geology.
zoology and entomology. lnterna-
tional law, political economy, and
U. S. constitution are included in
the course.
