THE LICK OBSERVATORY. | 15 |
| of the University are not given for mere faithfulness in the performance of allotted tasks, but that "power to do original work" (as exhibited in a thesis to be submitted before final examination, and in other ways) must be shown. |
|
Special students are received (usually during the favorable observing weather, June to November), and every facility consistent with the scientific work of the establishment will be given to them. They will be required to follow out some line of work, to the satisfaction of the Director, and they will usually be assigned as assistants to some of the astronomers. |

HEARST FELLOWSHIPS IN ASTRONOMY. |
|
Mrs. Phebe Hearst has provided a fund to be used in aid of scientific work at the Lick Observatory. A portion of this fund may be set aside for the purpose of defraying a part of the expenses of such advanced students as may be appointed to be Hearst Fellows in Astronomy by the Board of Regents on the recommendation of the President of the University and of the Director of the Observatory. Such recommendations will not be made except of students who have already made decided progress in their work; and candidates for the higher degrees of the University will be preferred, in general. |
|
QUARTERS FOR STUDENTS. |
|
Comfortable quarters (unfurnished) are allotted to all students at the Observatory. A kitchen and dining-room (partly furnished) are also provided for the common use of students, who must make their own arrangements for board and service. The cost per month to each student need not exceed $30. No charges or fees of any sort for instruction are required from students in the University. All injuries to instruments or apparatus must be made good at the student's expense, and students are expected to provide the larger part of the chemicals used in their practice of photography. Each student should bring with him the furniture of his bed, etc., and should also provide himself with text-books. |
