Wright, M.D. The thirty-fifth Session of the INIedical Faculty of the McGill University, will be opened on Monday, 4th November, 1867 ; and be continued during the sis months following. McGill University having been included among the Universities recognized by the Medical Council of Great Britain and Ireland, its degree has accordingly been registered by that Council, thereby placing the graduates of this University upon the same footing, and investing them with the same privileues as Physicians or Surgeons in the Old Country. The class tickets for the various courses are accepted as qualifying candidates for examination before the Universities and Colleges of Great Britain and Ireland, and also before the Medical Boards of the Army and Navy. To meet the circumstances of General Practitioners in British North America, where there is no division of the profession into Physicians and Surgeons exclusively, the degree awarded upon gra- duation is that of " Doctor of Medicine and Master Jn Surgery." This designation is also appropriate, from agreeing with the general nature and equable character of the previous curriculund demanded — of the candidates for this double rank, as is fully specified hereafter. The degree is received by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Lower Canada, and by the Council of Medical education and Registra- tion of Upper Canada. To intending students desirous of information upon the best man- ner of pursuing their studies, the following suggestions are made by the Faculty : (1.) Exclusively of general education, professional reading for some time previously to matriculation is advised as a preparation, whereby familiarity with technical terms will be gained, and an insight obtained into the subject to be brought under notice during lectures. (2.) Though three years constitute the shortest time required for College attendance, yet the student is at liberty to extend this as much further as he pleases the addition of a year, or even two, is ; considered to be a great benefit, for it obviates the crowding of branches within too brief a term, and permits of a more extensive attainment of the topics they embrace. (3.) Attention is recommended to be given during the first Session to the primary branches entirely; during the second Session an increase is proper, and two of the final courses may be profitably conjoined with such of the antecedent as are required; while during the remaining period further advance is to be made by completing the curriculum required of the candidate for graduation. Clinical courses should not be taken out during the first Session. Matriculation is necessary every Session ; it is required upon en- trance or as nearly afterwards as possible, and always before any class tickets are procured. The llcgister is closed annually in the month of December. Class tickets are payable in advance, and if not taken out within the prescribed period of the current session, will not be granted after its expiration. The ample and varied means which are placed at the disposal of the student by tliis .school, in its spacious accommodations and abun- dant provisions, together with the large liospitals in connection with it, are briefly referred to in the following pages.
