CATALOG 1952-1953 HOUSING All communications or inquiries concerning housing, applications, deposit fees, and rent payments in University Housing facilities should be sent to the Director of Housing, University of Florida, Gainesville. A student may make his own arrangements direct with the property-owner for off-campus accommodations in private housing. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE Student Employment.-The faculty of the College of Law recommends that stu- dents refrain from taking part-time employment during the first two semesters of study except in cases of absolute necessity. Consult the University Catalog for information concerning part-time employment at the University. Scholarships.-No scholarship funds are available exclusively for law students. Con- sult the University Catalog for information as to scholarship funds which may be made available to law students. Loan Funds.-The Senior Law Loan Fund, available to needy seniors in the College of Law, was established by the Law Class of 1938 and has been increased by subsequent gifts. Applications should be made to the Dean of the'College of Law. Consult the University Catalog for information as to other loan funds which may be made available to law students. SUMMER SESSION The College of Law conducts a summer session for students who have had one or more semesters of law study. Beginning students are not admitted to the summer ses- sion. Detailed information as to dates and courses is given in the Bulletin of the Sum- mer Session which is usually published in April. The faculty of the College of Law feels that continuous law study throughout the year is undesirable except in cases where it is essential that a student accelerate his work, and therefore strongly urges students who have been in continuous attendance for two or more semesters not to attend the summer session. REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES All degrees are conferred by the Board of Control at regular commencement exer- cises. All candidates for degrees are required to be present at commencement exercises (Baccalaureate Sermon and Commencement Convocation). A student who fails to at- tend without being excused by the Board of Control will not have his degree conferred until he makes another application and complies with this requirement. The Faculty of the College of Law will recommend for the degree of Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) candidates who have complied with the following requirements: 1. Completion, with a passing grade of courses totalling at least 85 credits, of which at least 55 must have been completed in this College.
