PH.D. IN HISTORY The UM has inaugurated a new graduate
INAUGURATED HERE program leading to the Doctor of Philos-
ophy degree in history in selected fields in the area of Latin America, effective this semester.
Major dissertation fields are: the Caribbean and Central America; Social and Intellectual History; Inter-American Relations, particularly in Cuba and the Andean countries; and South American republics.
Supporting fields of study in United States History are: Diplomatic, Social-Intellectual, New South-Urban Black, and Twentieth Century Political; in European history: Diplomatic and Political since 1789, Modern Britain, Modern Russia, Intellectual, Ancient (Greek and Roman), and Modern Near East. The history of East Asia may also be chosen as a supporting field.
While the student must demonstrate general competency in the field of Latin America, he must also show specific ability in five fields. Of these only two may be in the dissertation area. The other three may be chosen from the supporting fields, although one of the three may be taken in a department other than history.
Dr. Raymond G. O'Connor, chairman of the UM history department, noted that in addition to meeting the requirements listed in the UM Graduate School Bulletin, Ph.D. candidates must also establish competency in Spanish or Portugese and one other language.
DRAMA DEPARTMENT Seven plays will be presented this season SCHEDULES SEVEN by the UM drama department — six at the
Ring Theatre and one at the Coconut Grove Playhouse. George Farquhar's “The Beaux Stratagem“ opens Wednesday October 13 and will run Wednesday through Saturday nights through October 30.
