Autumn, Winter, Spring. Rich, Terry DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS G. Alexander, J. Atkins, R. A. Clarke, *H. P. Huish, E. S. Murphy, L. E. Rich, M. L. Stevenson, W. Z. Terry General Prerequisites: Each course in college mathematics requires a knowledge of mathematical principles and an understanding of the content of courses previously studied. It is important that the student complete all prerequisite courses in mathematics. Whenever a low grade in a mathematics course is received or the substance of the course forgotten, the student should repeat the particular course. To determine a student's mathematical background and his possibility of success in further mathematics courses, a special examination may be required by the Department. Departmental Major: A student pursuing a major in Mathematics will be required to complete the "Graduation Requirements" as specified on pages 30-33 and should include Mathematics 4, 10, 7, 8, 9, and Physics 4, 5, 6. Teaching Major: It is recommended that a student pursuing a teaching major in Mathematics complete the courses specified for the "Departmental Major" and consult the Department of Education for additional courses prescribed by that department. 1. Intermediate Algebra. A course designed for the general student as well as for the science student. It deals with the fundamental algebraic operations, special products and factoring, fractions, linear *On leave 1955-56 |
