Excerpt from Schedule of Dissertations of Approved Candidates for Advanced Degrees With Major and Minor Subjects If the student wishes to qualify for a degree and designates a major and a minor subject of interest, the department in which he wishes to major becomes his adviser. This department is held responsible for arrangement and approval of his schedule, for noting his undergraduate qualifications, for observing the character of his work as he progresses in his major and minor courses, and for conferring with him from time to time with ref erence to specialization and research. When the department is assured that the student has made a satisfactory beginning in the investigation of a problem that he is qualified to pursue and announces the subject of his thesis to the Graduate Council, the approval of such notice makes the student an approved candidate for a degree.
