...value of summer training of some sort can not be doubted; it is proved by the graduates of college corps now in the service.

The student in the select course of the scientific school may substitute the R. O. T. C. course for a large part of his work and receive his Ph.B. degree at the end of three years. The Sheffield man taking an engineering or chemical course in college will pursue his technical studies during the R. O. T. C. course and thus prepare for a commission in the Engineers' Reserve Corps...
