pursue advanced study and research for not less than six terms,<br />
or approximately two years (counting each summer <strong>of</strong> field work<br />
as a term), before they will be recommended by the Division <strong>of</strong><br />
Geology and Paleontology for the final examination for the Doctor's<br />
degree.<br />
IX. GRADUATE LIFE<br />
The Atheneum, now under construction, will be readj for occupancy<br />
in September, 1930. (See page 60.) It will afford opportunity<br />
for contact between the Associates <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Institute</strong>, distinguished<br />
foreign visitors, and members <strong>of</strong> the staffs and<br />
graduate students at the three adj acent institutions, the Mount<br />
Wilson observatory, the Huntington Library, and the <strong>California</strong><br />
<strong>Institute</strong>. It will also provide living quarters for a limited number<br />
<strong>of</strong> men associated with the foregoing institutions.<br />
X. FELLOWSHIPS AND ASSISTANTSHIPS<br />
The <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers a number <strong>of</strong> Fellowships and Assistantships,<br />
carrying salaries ranging from $500 to $1,000 for ten<br />
months' service. (The tuition <strong>of</strong> such fellows and assistants is<br />
$180 until admitted to candidacy for the Doctor's degree, when<br />
it becomes $90.)<br />
The primary object <strong>of</strong> these appointments is to give a group<br />
<strong>of</strong> well-qualified men a training in research which will prepare<br />
them for university teaching and research and for the many<br />
important positions in scientific and industrial research laboratories<br />
and in development departments <strong>of</strong> American industries.<br />
Teaching fellows will devote not more than fifteen hours a<br />
week to instruction <strong>of</strong> a character that will afford them useful<br />
experience. This time includes that required in preparation and<br />
in marking note-books and papers, as well as that spent in classroom<br />
and laboratory. Of the remaining time at least one-half<br />
must be devoted to research; and the obligation to prosecute this<br />
earnestly is regarded as no less binding than that <strong>of</strong> showing<br />
proper interest in teaching. Advanced courses <strong>of</strong> study may also<br />
be pursued as far as time permits.<br />
Teaching Fellows and Assistants must obtain permission from
