LOCATION St. John's College is situated on a campus of thirty acres in the city of Annapolis. This beautiful town, so rich in tradition and in stately pre-Revolutionary buildings, is unique in America for the way in which it has preserved the flavor of American Colonial culture. Built at the mouth of the Severn River, a mile from Chesapeake Bay, the capital of Maryland and the site of the United States Naval Academy, it is within an hour's ride of Wash­ ington or Baltimore. Both of these cities offer many educational resources to the student at St. John's. The departments of the National Government, the museums, the libraries and the art gal-

Amount of Work Permitted. A Freshman may carry a maximum of 17 year-hours of work in addition to Physical Training. In pre-medical work, however, a Freshm.an may carry a program of 19 year-hours in addition to Physical Training. Upper-classmen may carry a maximum program of 22 year-hours, provided he has maintained an average of C in the preceding half-year. Amount of Work Required. No student may carry a program of less than 12 year-hours. In addition to these 12 hours, each student must take Physical Training unless he already has acquired credit for the required two years. Examinations. Informal hour-examinations are held in all courses in both the first and second half-years, in November and in March, covering the work of approximately the first seven weeks of the half-year. Reports. Reports are sent to each student, to his parents, and to his adviser after each grade period, that is, after the November hour­ examinations, after the Mid-year examinations, after the March hour-examinations, and at the end of the year.
