AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE
The purpose which has prevailed at .Agnes Scott since its
foundation has been to ofEer the very best educational advan-
tages under positive Christian influences the training and
furnishing of the mind in a modern, well-equipped college,
and at the same time the formation and development of
Christian character and ideal. Along with these ends, it is
constantly sought to cultivate true womanliness, a womanli-
ness which combines strength with gentleness and refinement.
It is thus the aim of the College to send out educated Chris-
tian women to be a power in blessing the world and glorifying
God.
The College was founded by Presbyterians, and hence its
moral standards and religious life conform as nearly as pos-
sible to those which obtain in that church. Special care,
however, is taken not to interfere in any way with the relig-
ious views or preferences of students from families belonging
to other denominations, or to no denomination, all of whom
are welcome.
The College offers only the B.A. degree. There are, how-
ever, optional courses leading to this degree, thus giving the
opportunity for each student to elect a course most in accord
with her special talent and plans.
14 Agnes Scott College

Latin, Mathematics, French, German, Greek, Physics, Chem-
istry.
3. Two elective units from among the following subjects :
French, German, Greek, History, Botany, Zoology, Physiol-
ogy, Physiography.
It is understood that in choosing the elective units no re-
quired unit may be counted also as an elective unit, and also
that elective units may be counted only once.
The fourth unit in Latin and in Mathematics will be ac-
cepted for entrance only by examination, when the student
does not continue these subjects in College.
Both Physics and Chemistry when not offered for entrance
must be taken in College, and when both are offered for en-
trance, an advanced course in one or the other must be taken
in College.
The entrance requirement work in French, German, and
Greek may be done in College after entrance but will not
count toward the degree.
For convenience of reference the subjects that are to be used
in making up the entrance requirements may be grouped in
tabular form as given below, the figure following each sub-
ject in parentheses being the value of that subject in units.

DESCRIPTION OF ENTRANCE SUBJECTS
ENGLISH
English, three "units. The College entrance requirements
of the New England, Middle, and Southern States Associa-
tions of Colleges and Preparatory Schools constitute the en-
trance work in English.
The requirement in English has two branches, Ehetoric and
English Literature. The study of English should be con-
tinuous throughout four years of the high-school course.
I Khetorio and Composition, one unit and a half. It
is hoped that at least one-half of the high-school course in
English will be devoted to the work in Composition and
Rhetoric, either as a separate study or in connection with the
work in literature, as it is a prime essential to success in any
branch of collegiate work that the student be able to express
herself, both orally and in writing, with correctness and clear-
ness. The subjects for examination in Composition will be
taken from the English Literature required for 1911-12.
The form of the examination will usually be the writing of
several paragraphs on each of several topics to be chosen by
the candidate from a number set before her in the examina-
tion paper in English Literature. The treatment of these
topics is designed to test the student's power of clear and ac-
curate expression, and will call for only a general knowledge
of the books.
To meet this requirement in Composition :
1. There should be practice in writing, the equivalent of
at least one theme a week during the four years of her pre-
Admission of Students 17
paratory course. She must be able to spell, capitalize, and
punctuate correctly ; no candidate will be accepted whose work
is notably deficient in this respect. She must also have a
practical knowledge of English Grammar.
2. There should be a systematic study of Ehetoric. Par-
ticular attention should be given to the structure of the sen-
tence, paragraph, and whole composition.
The following books are recommended for study in prepara-
tion: In Ehetoric, Herrick and Damon's Composition and
Ehetoric ; Scott and Denny's Composition-Ehetoric ; Genung's
Outlines of Ehetoric; Hill's Foundations of Ehetoric; Brook
and Hubbard's Ehetoric; Webster's English Composition and
Literature.

pides.
Study and Practice. This part of the examination pre-
supposes the thorough study of each of the works named
below. The examination will be upon subject-matter, form,
and structure. This requirement means that the student
should have been trained to use simple forms of narration,
Admission op Students 19
description, exposition, and argument in her own composition.
In addition, the candidate may be required to answer ques-
tions involving the essentials of English grammar, and ques-
tions on the leading facts in those periods of English literary

Johnson or Carlyle's Essay on Burns.
As additional evidence of preparation the candidate may
present an exercise book, properly certified by her instructor,
containing compositions or other written work.
It is taken for granted that the candidate will have learned
by heart passages from all the poems she has read,

The reading in addition of at least 150 pages of prose from
carefully graduated texts. This requirement includes careful
drill in pronunciation and in reading German aloud; the in-
flection of articles, nouns, adjectives, pronouns, weak verbs

common prepositions, with the principles of syntax and word-
order; the memorizing of idioms of daily life and of simple
German poems; conversation; oral narrative; reading at

Admission of Students 25
Goethe and Schiller, and the more difficult conversation
idioms.
Note. If the third unit of the major requirement is of-
fered in addition to the full entrance requirement in other
subjects, it may be counted toward the degree. It is under-
stood, however, that this third unit includes five recitations
a week for one year. Students presenting the major require-
ment will be admitted only by examination, which will in-
clude a test in conversation, since it is essential that students
of this grade be able to follow and to take part with com-
parative ease in a recitation conducted in German.
Third Language Requirement (admitting to second
semester of Elementary German), one unit. Thomas's Prac-
tical German Grammar to Demonstratives, page 101. At

given below. Each should represent the work of one year
and should include a large amount of individual laboratory
work. This laboratory work should be directed by a com-
petent instructor and records made in a note-book, while
in the field or laboratory. The note-book, endorsed by the
instructor who supervised the work, must be presented before
the student can be admitted to examinations, or accepted on
certificate.
1. Physics. The amount of work required is repre-
sented by such texts as Gage, Millikan and Gale, or Hoadley.
The laboratory work must include, at least, thirty-five se-
lected exercises. One unit.
2. Chemistry. This course covers General Inorganic
Chemistry, embracing a study of non-metals and metals.
Eemsen, Williams, McPherson and Henderson are accepta-
ble texts. One unit.
3. Botany, This course should include the study of the
general laws of plant physiology, the fundamental principles
of plant morphology, the classification of the phanerogams,
and an investigation of the typical plants of the chief divi-
sions of the plant kingdom. The laboratory work must
occupy at least half of the time devoted to the study. The
work may be founded on such texts as Coulter, Bergen, Stev-
ens, or Leavitt. One unit.
4. Zoology. Eighteen types representing the principal
divisions of the animal kingdom should be studied and tlie
Admission of Students 29
study of the living animal should always precede dissection.
The course embraces both Invertebrate and Vertebrate forms.
Such texts as Davenport, or Herrick are recommended. One
unit.
5. Physiography. This course embraces: The princi-
ples of Physiography as given in such texts as Davis, or Tarr,
field work through the course, the interpretation and use of
topographic maps and weather maps. One unit.
For the year 1912-13 the student will be permitted to ofEer
one-half unit in any of the following subjects. Each sub-
ject must be studied for five recitation periods per week for
eighteen weeks. The laboratory work is not so extended
as in the full units, but should represent at least one-third
of the time given to the study.
1. Botany. The course may be based in Bergen's Ele-
ments of Botany, or Coulter's Plant Eelations and should
include simpler experiments in seed germination and plant
anatomy and an herbarium of twelve or more plants should be
presented. One-half unit.
2. Physical Geogeaphy. The subject should be studied
with the aid of the best texts, as Gilbert and Brigham's,
Tarr's, Davis's. One-half unit.
3. Physiology. A course based upon Martin's Human
Body, or Foster and Shore. One-half unit.
ADMISSION OF CANDIDATES FOR THE DEGREE
All candidates for the degree must enter either by certifi-
cate or by examination. If the candidate seeks admission to
the Freshman class she must meet all entrance requirements
(p. 14) in order to be admitted without condition; or by
30 Agnes Scott College
passing on certain subjects she may be admitted with condi-
tions (see p. 36). For admission to advanced standing, see
page 31.
ADMISSION OF IRREGULAR STUDENTS
Candidates for admission who do not wish to pursue a
course of study leading to the degree are admitted by exami-
nation or by certificate. These students must offer for en-
trance twelve units chosen from the following list, the num-
ber after each subject indicating the maximum number of
units that may be offered in that subject : English 3, Latin 4,
Mathematics 4, Greek 3, German 3, French 3, History 2y2,
Science 3. Of the twelve units required, five must be chosen
as follows: three in English and two in Mathematics. In
these five units, not more than one condition (see Condi-
tional subjects, page 36) will be allowed.
Irregular students are required to take a minimum of fif-
teen hours of recitation per week, which may include Music
and Art.
Should they desire later to arrange their courses for the
degree, credit will be given them for work already done in
the College, but they must meet all of the entrance require-
ments of degree students.
ADMISSION OF SPECIAL STUDENTS
Candidates who have completed their collegiate education,
or who have some years prior to their application finished
their preparation for college and have been prevented from
continuing their education, are admitted without examination
to pursue studies not included among the entrance subjects.
Admission" of Students 31
Such students must be at least twenty years of age and must
show special fitness for the departments they desire to enter.
This arrangement for special students is designed specially
for teachers who desire to continue their studies in a college
well equipped with libraries and laboratories. These students
will not be permitted to change to the degree course unless
they meet the entrance requirements of degree students.
ADMISSION TO ADVANCED STANDING
A candidate may be admitted to any of the higher classes
on the following conditions:
1. That she stand examination on all the subjects em-
braced in the course of the B.A. degree below the class for
which she applies. Credit will be given for any subject on
which candidate passes satisfactory examination, but applica-
tion for examination for advanced standing in any subject
must be made within two weeks of "entrance.
2. When she comes from another institution of recognized
standing and desires to enter by certificate, she must present
detailed statement of work done, and, at the discretion of
the professor at the head of each department, may receive
credit for such work. Certificates must be presented from
the instructors in each department of the college from which
she comes, showing amount, character of the work, and time
given to it. Laboratory and note-books must accompany cer-
tificates of work done in Sciences and History.
3. The B.A. degree will not be conferred on any student
who has not done fifteen hours of work in residence for one
complete session immediately preceding graduation.
32 Agnes Scott College
4. In every case the applicant must present certificate
signed by the president of the institution she last attended
showing that she has been honorably dismissed.
ADMISSION BY CERTIFICATE
Agnes Scott seeks the support, cooperation, and sympathy
of all worthy secondary schools, recognizing as the surest
basis for advancing the educational interests of the South
the perfect coordination of the college with the preparatory
school.
The following conditions governing the certificate privilege
should be carefully noted:
1. The privilege is granted to schools only, and not to
private instructors.
2. It is granted only on trial, and may be withdrawn at
any time if the work of the school is found to be unsatisfac-
tory. Accredited schools are requested to send their cata-
logues and circulars of information to the College each year.
Changes in faculty or in methods of instruction may neces-
sitate the withdrawal of the privilege altogether or in part,
until such changes shall have been shown to be advantageous.
3. In every instance the privilege is granted only in so
far as the duly signed certificate (made out on a blank fur-
nished by the College) shows the entrance work to have been
done satisfactorily, and the applicant to be able, in the prin-
cipal's opinion, to undertake college work with a reasonable
prospect of success.
4. Certificates will not be accepted for parts of a subject
completed by the applicant before entering the certifying
school ; nor for any work done on an entrance subject during
Admission of Students 33
vacation; nor for any work done in less time than that
specified as necessary under Description of Entrance Subjects
(see page 14).
5. A certificate, in order to be valid, must be presented
within twelve months after the time of the applicant's gradu-
ation from the certifying school.
Subject to these conditions, the following classes of schools
are considered eligible for admission to the accredited list :
1. Schools which have sent to the College students, who,
having entered upon examination, have shown by their first
year's work that their preparation has been thorough and
their training consistent with the best methods.
2. Schools which have made formal application to the
Committee on Accredited Schools for admission to the list
(upon blanks furnished by the College for the purpose) and
which have been examined by the Committee and approved
as to faculty, courses, methods, and equipment.
3. Schools which have been examined by any of the insti-
tutions belonging to the Association of Colleges and Pre-
paratory Schools of the Southern States and admitted to their
accredited list.
ADMISSION BY EXAMINATION
Examinations for admission are given in May and in
September. The examinations in May may be taken at the
time of the final examinations in the various preparatory
schools and the high schools of the South. The Association
of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Southern States
has instituted a system of uniform entrance examinations
which is designed to facilitate the admission of students. The
34 Agnes Scott College
examination questions are prepared by committees from the
faculties of the colleges and schools and are to be set in place
of the final examinations in May on the dates assigned. It
is desired to stimulate the secondary schools, by setting uni-
form standards for them and by encouraging them to work
together. In order to make this system effective it is neces-
sary for all the schools to give the final examinations at the
same time.
Not all of the "Entrance Subjects" will be required of
any student for entrance. Those that are required and those
that are elective are designated both for candidates for the
degree and for irregular students. (See page 30.) The
scope of the work required in these entrance subjects accords
with the requirements for admission prescribed by the Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Southern
States.
THE EXAMINATIONS OFFERED IN MAY
These are the uniform entrance examinations prepared and
offered under the auspices of the Association of Colleges and
Preparatory Schools of the Southern States. The College
will furnish sets of the questions (1) to teachers not con-
nected with accredited schools, (2) to accredited schools, and
(3) to other preparatory schools or high schools which may
have students preparing for Agnes Scott, It is recommended
that these examinations be set on the dates assigned as the
regular final examinations. The examination papers with
pledge attached and endorsed by the principal should be
mailed to the President,
These examinations will be held also at the College on the
respective dates named by the Association.
Admission of Students 35
THE EXAMINATIONS OFFERED IN SEPTEMBER

CONDITIONED STUDENTS
In some cases students who have not had all the prepara-
tory work necessary for entrance may be "conditioned" in
36 Agnes Scott College
those subjects in which, the deficiency exists, and may remove
these conditions by work done after entering College.
Students entering for the degree course will at present be
allowed conditions in three of the fifteen units required for
entrance, provided the condition in any subject (except the
entrance work in French, German, or Greek, when it is done
in College) shall not mean a whole year's work, and provided
also that not more than two of the conditions are included in
the nine units required in English, Mathematics and Latin.
All conditions must be removed before the student enters
on the work of the Junior year.
Irregular students will be allowed conditions in three of
the twelve units required for entrance, provided the condition
in any subject (except entrance French, German, or Greek,
when done in College) shall not mean a whole year's work,
and provided also that not more than one condition is in-
cluded in the five units required in English and Mathematics.
An irregular student who enters with conditions must remove
at least two before the beginning of the second year in college,
and the remaining one by the beginning of her third year.
CLASSIFICATION
The classification of all first-year students is in the hands
of the Committee on Admission. The classification of all
students after the first year is arranged by the Committee on
Electives. After a course has been agreed on between stu-
dent and committee, no change will be allowed except by
the joint approval of the Committee and of the professors
whose departments would be involved in the proposed
change.
Admission of Students 37
The Committees will consider reasons for a change of
course on the part of a student, especially where these rea-
sons are concerned with the student's health. The best in-
terest of the student is in every case the determining factor.
New students must be definitely classified within two
weeks after entrance.
38 Agnes Scott College
DEGREE AND CERTIFICATES
BACHELOR'S DEGREE
The College will confer the Bachelor of Arts Degree upon
any student who satisfactorily completes the requirements
as given on pages 39-41, These requirements, embracing
sixty hours of recitation, can not be taken in less than four
years by students who enter the Freshman class without con-
dition. Students will not be permitted to take more than
seventeen hours of recitation during one session.
The curriculum is based upon the principle that a college
degree should stand for broad and thorough attainments in
education. The B.A. course, therefore, is partly prescribed
and partly elective, and the electives are given under restric-
tions that will insure a broad and liberal course of study for
each year.
The degree will not be conferred upon any student who has
taken less than one session of resident work.
CERTIFICATES
A Certificate of Proficiency will be given to any student
who completes satisfactorily the certificate course in any
subject, and in addition presents by April 2d, just preceding
the completion of the course, a thesis of not less than two
thousand words, prepared under the direction of the professor
of the department.
CUREICULUM 39
CURRICULUM
THE GROUP SYSTEM
A fundamental principle of the curriculum is that of the
group system, which comes into operation in the choice of
elective courses. There are three groups :
I. The Language Literature Group.
II. The History Philosophy Group.
III. The Science Mathematics Group.
All the work of the Freshman year is required, but there
are four optional groups of studies which Freshmen may take,
as indicated below, the choice of the group to be taken being
determined partly by the student's preference and partly by
her preparatory work.
Sophomores must take prescribed courses in Bible, Biol-
ogy, and Language, as indicated below, in groups correspond-
ing to the groups of the Freshman year.
There is a required course in Bible for Juniors, and there
are required courses in Philosophy for Juniors and Seniors.
The student must choose elective courses sufficient to make
with her required courses sixty hours of work extending
through an entire year. Semester hours count as half-hours
in the sixty hour requirement for the degree.
The following rules govern the choice of elective courses :
1. All elective courses after the Freshman year must be
chosen with the advice and consent of the Committee on
Electives.
40 Agnes Scott College
2. A candidate for the degree must show that she has
completed a major of at least nine hours in English, French,
German, Latin, History, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or
Mathematics; and three minors of six hours each, one in a
modem language and one in each of the two groups other
than that in which the major is taken. Courses that con-
stitute major and minor work are designated by heads of
departments with advice of the Committee on Electives, and
are indicated in the descriptions of the courses of instruc-
tion.
3. Majors must be agreed upon by students by the begin-
ning of the Junior year, and all elective courses must be
definitely determined upon by the beginning of the Senior
year.
4. Not more than six hours may be taken in one depart-
ment in any semester.
5. Students offering for entrance two languages other
than Latin, must continue one of these two languages in the
Freshman year. Students offering for entrance Latin and
only one other language must continue that other language
in the Freshman year. This rule comes into operation in
the choice of the group of studies to be taken in the Fresh-
man year.
6. A second language must be continued in College
through course 2, and if a third language offered for entrance
is taken in college it must be continued through course 1.
7. One year of a foreign language may be counted in
making up the requirements for the degree only when that
language is the fourth language that the student has taken.
CUREICULUM 41
A lecture course in personal Hygiene, one hour a week
for the first semester, is required of all first-year students,
but does not count in the sixty hours required for the degree.
Every candidate for graduation must not only have com-
pleted the requisite number of hours, but also have attained
a grade as high as "C^' on twenty hours (four being in the
Senior year) and a grade as high as "D" on ten hours (three
being in the Senior year), and a grade as high as "E" on
all the remaining hours required for the degree.

The Hygiene exercises aim to bring about increased bodily
vigor, and the healthy development of the individual.
The Aesthetic element is introduced by means of rhythmical
exercises, to gain bodily discipline, muscular coordination,
and to develop grace and the sense of rhythm.
The Corrective exercises aim to overcome bad habits of pos-
ture, and to improve the carriage of the individual.
The Eecreative element is introduced through games and
folk games.
Every student is given a careful physical examination, both
by the resident physician and the physical director before
entering this department. Where serious physical defects are
found, the matter is referred to the parents, and, with their
approval, arrangements will be made for special corrective
gymnastics for which there is an extra charge.

GENERAL INFORMATiON
LOCATION
The College is located in the town of Decatur, which is on
the Georgia railroad, six miles east of Atlanta. It is con-
nected with the city by two electric lines and steam cars.
The elevation of the town is 1,050 feet, the water freestone,
and the climate free from extremes of heat or cold.
HEALTH
All the natural conditions of good health are found here,
but since no locality, even under the best circumstances, is
exempt from sickness, Agnes Scott has made every prepara-
tion to prevent it and also to treat it if it comes.
The resident physician lectures' to the student body on per-
sonal and sanitary hygiene, and uses every means known to
preventive medicine to ward off sickness. If sickness occurs
she is here on the grounds to render skilled attention. A
trained nurse, a graduate of one of the best hospitals, and
with much experience, has charge of the Infirmary under the
resident physician, and gives her entire time to looking after
those who need her care. No charge is made for use of In-
firmary, nor for services of the nurse in ordinary cases. All
medicines must be paid for.
In cases of protracted sickness or contagious diseases parents
must provide a nurse at their own expense.

This is a new residence hall, completed in 1911, 170x50 feet
and three stories high. It is built of faced brick and trim-
med with Indiana limestone. It contains thirty-eight double
rooms and fifteen single rooms. A wide veranda extends
along the entire front. The building faces West, thus insur-
ing that every room will get sunlight during the day. The
ventilation, lighting, heating and plumbing are in accordance
with best modern methods.
This building is the gift of Mr. S. M. Inman of Atlanta
and is a memorial of his deceased wife, Mrs. Jennie D. Inman.
THE WHITE HOUSE
This is a two-story frame building with wide verandas on
three sides. It is equipped with every modern convenience,
steam heat, electric lights, sanitary plumbing, and hot and
cold water. It contains twelve bed-rooms, all on the second
floor. The first floor has been rearranged and refitted to pro-
vide a commodious and beautiful dining-room for the resi-
dents of Inman Hall.
THE CARNEGIE LIBRARY
This building, completed in 1911, is the gift of Mr. An-
drew Carnegie. It is a two-story structure seventy-two feet
in length by fifty feet in width, constructed of faced brick
with massive trimmings of Indiana limestone. Besides a lofty
and spacious reading-room, librarian's offices and special study
rooms, it has stack space for twenty thousand volumes. It
is heated by steam and lighted by electricity.
General Information 91
The College Library, occupying the new Carnegie building,
consists of about five thousand carefully selected volumes,
exclusive of pamphlets, etc. The most approved card index
system of cataloguing and the services of a trained librarian
render all books easily available to students. The reading-
rooms are supplied with the leading magazines, scientific,
literary and educational, and with journals of music and art.
In addition to the general library, mention should be made
of the Scientific library in Lowry Hall, and of the excellent
collections belonging to the two literary societies.
The library is destined to grow rapidly in the future as it
has been placed upon separate endowment foundation.
LOWRY HALL
This building, completed in 1911, is built of brick and trim-
med with Indiana limestone. It is 100x50 feet, and includ-
ing the basement is four stories high. It has steam heat, elec-
tric lights, and hot and cold water. An adequate gas plant
supplies the laboratories with heat. It has been planned
with special reference to providing lecture rooms, store rooms,
and laboratories for Chemistry, Physics, Geology, and Biol-
ogy. On the left side of the main entrance is a bronze tablet
with this inscription:
"This Science Hall is perpetually endowed by Eobert J.
and Emma C. Lowry in Memory of their Son William Mark-
ham Lowry, Anno Domini, 1910."
The Biological Laboratory contains two laboratories, a lec-
ture room, a professor's office and library, a vivarium, a photo-
graphic room, a storage room and a museum. The work of
instruction and research commands the aid of suitable ap-
paratus, such as microscopes, microtomes, ovens, baths, charts,
and illustrative collections.
92 Agnes Scott College
The chemical Laboratory is well supplied with chemicals
and chemical apparatus and the laboratories have every
modern convenience that could be desired. Besides a large
basement, there are five commodious laboratories, a lecture
room, a research laboratory, a professor's office, a library,
three storage rooms and two balance rooms.
The Geological department has the use of a lecture room
and laboratory, and a museum is being equipped and already
a considerable number of fossils and mineralogical specimens
are on hand. This museum is of great value and interest to
the students in geology.
The Physics Laboratory contains a large lecture room, a
professor's office and reference library, a dark room, two
large laboratories, and two store rooms. The equipment has
been largely increased during the past year and new apparatus
will be added before the beginning of next session.
THE GYMNASIUM
This is a three-story brick building. The gymnasium
proper with shower baths and lockers occupies the entire
ground floor. The second and third stories are occupied as
study hall and recitation rooms by the Academy. The build-
ing is heated throughout by steam, and supplied with hot and
cold water.
THE ALUMNAE INFIRMARY
This is a well-built two-story frame house, located south
of Lowry Hall. The building has been arranged so that it is
admirably adapted to its purpose.
A bathroom with hot and cold water, and with sanitary
plumbing is conveniently located on each floor. The build-
ing is lighted by electricity, and electric call-bells connect
Geneeal Infoemation 93
each room with the nurse's room. The rooms are large, well-
heated and lighted.
In recognition of their generosity and affectionate interest
in their Alma Mater, the Trustees have named the building
The Alumnse Infirmary. Sickness may occur anywhere, and
parents will doubtless appreciate the importance of the In-
firmary.
THE LAUNDRY
The steam laundry on the campus is amply equipped and
handles all the laundry of the college community.
THE POWER HOUSE
The College has a power house on the campus and thus
controls its own sources of heating and lighting.
SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES
SCHOLARSHIPS
The W. a. Mooee Scholaeship Fund. Under the will
of the late William A. Moore, a Euling Elder of the First
Presbyterian Church, of Atlanta, the College received, in
1892, a legacy of $5,000.
The will of Mr. Moore provides that "this sum shall be
held as a permanent fund or endowment for the education at
this College of worthy girls of Presbyterian parents who are
unable to provide a collegiate education for their daughters,"
the same to be permanently invested, and only the interest
used.
Scholarships under this fund are annually awarded as di-
rected in Mr. Moore's will.
The Alumnae Scholaeship. The Alumnne have caught
the spirit of helpfulness which characterizes their Alma Mater
94 Agnes Scott College

as the "Alumna Scholarship." The annual income from this
endowment is $60.00.
Mr. W. a. Speer, of Atlanta, has given $500.00 to the
general endowment fund as a memorial to his mother, Mrs.
Aurelia E. Speer.

is for two occupants, there is no extra charge, but for a single
room an extra charge of $25.00 is made for the year.
No student will be received for less than a full term, or
the portion of the term remaining after entrance. The pro-
fessors are engaged and all arrangements made Ifor the
scholastic year, and the College obligates itself to furnish the
advantages thus provided, for the session. The entering of
a student is a corresponding obligation on the part of the
patron to continue her to the end of the session. In the event
of withdrawal on account of sicTcness the amount paid for
board and laundry in advance of date of leaving will be re-
funded, lut not amount paid for tuition.
Students who register for any Special and afterward decide
to discontinue it, must give notice to the bookkeeper of such
discontinuance within thirty days from date of registration.
Written permission must be secured from the Dean before
a student can drop any Special.
All letters on business or concerning the general manage-
ment of the College, or concerning any matter affecting the
welfare or interest of students should be addressed to the
President.

98 Agnes Scott College
no deduction for any cause will be allowed students
withdrawing after the beginning of the fourth
QUARTER.
All drafts, cheeks and money orders should be made pay-
able to Agnes Scott College. If remittance is by local check,
add twenty-j&ve cents for exchange.
It is recommended that a deposit of $10.00 be made with
the bookkeeper to pay for books and stationery. These are
sold at the College at city prices for cash. Patrons must not
ask to have them charged and put on their bills, as no ac-
counts are opened on our books for charges of this kind.
It is hoped that parents will make only moderate allowance
to their daughters for spending money. When money is de-
posited with the treasurer for students it is paid out on their
checks, and no other account is kept by the College except
cancelled checks.
The College will not advance money to students.
The College exercises every precaution to protect property
of students, but will not be responsible for losses of any kind.
For the accommodation of students and teachers the Col-
lege receives packages for them, and the utmost care is taken
to have these packages properly delivered to the owners, but
the College will not be responsible for any losses that may
occur.

same family, a discount of five per cent, is allowed on total
bills, except laboratory fees. When a student takes two
musics or music and art, and the literary course, a discount

rangement with the President.
No reduction will he made for holidays. Students not re-
turning after Christmas will he charged to end of term.
Students remaining during Christmas holidays will be
charged $6.00 per week for board.
FURNITURE
The College supplies the students' rooms with bedstead,
bureau, wardrobe, washstand, chairs, mattress, pillows and
crockery. Each student should bring with her sheets,
blankets, counterpanes, pillow-cases (35x22), towels, napkins,
napkin-ring, teaspoon, and any articles, as rugs, curtains, etc.,
of use or ornament desired for her room. The bedclothing
should be the size used for double or three-quarter beds.
100 Agnes Scott College
All articles, including trunks, must be plainly and durably
marked with the name of the owner. Failure to comply with

STUDENT AND ALUMNAE ORGANIZATIONS
STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION
This organization, based upon a charter granted by the
Faculty, has for its purpose the ordering and control of the
dormitory life and of most other matters not strictly aca-
demic. Its membership includes all the students. The most
gratifying results have continually followed the increase of
opportunity and of responsibility thus given to the students,
especially in the development of self-restraint, consideration
for the majority, and the true cooperative spirit.
YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
The object of the Young Women's Christian Association
is to develop spiritual life among the students. This organi-
zation works in various ways to promote right living, and is
a prominent factor for good in the College.
LITERARY SOCIETIES
Two literary societies contribute much to the social life and
literary attainment of the students, and are valuable as a
means of cultivating ease of manner and expression, of fos-
tering a taste for good literature, and of developing social and
literary gifts.
The Mnemosynean Society was organized in October, 1891,
and the Propylean in May, 1897.
Geneeal Information 101
These societies have beautiful and attractive halls in the
College. They meet every two weeks, and their programs con-
sist of readings, recitations, essays, debates, and music.
The societies are using their funds year by year in build-
ing up excellent libraries for the benefit of their members.
ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
Athletic sports, not including the regular g^^mnastic classes,
are managed by the Athletic Association. Inter-class basket-
ball is the leading sport in the fall and winter months, while
the annual tennis tournament is the spring event. The new
athletic field recently acquired by the College affords excel-
lent opportunities for outdoor basket-ball, tennis, and field
hockey. This field, situated conveniently to the gymnasium,
has been graded and put into good condition. It is to be
surrounded by a privet hedge, which will enhance its beauty
and at the same time insure privacy.
ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION
During the Commencement of 1895 the Agnes Scott
Alumnae Association was organized. The object of the Asso-
ciation is to strengthen the interest of those who have been
connected with the school, in each other and in the College,
to place them in a helpful relation toward it, and to arouse
and quicken the interest in Christian education.
President, Miss Mildred Thomson.
Vice-President, Miss Flora Crowe.
Secretary, Miss Euth Marion.
Treasurer, Miss Eusha Wesley.
102 Agnes Scott College
STUDENT PUBLICATIONS
The students issue the following publications:
The Auroea. This is a monthly magazine devoted to the
development of literary effort among the students.
The Silhoutte. This is the Annual published by the
student body. It is intended to give in humorous and artistic
vein, a record of the student life for the current year.
RELIGIOUS LIFE
Every effort is made to promote earnest and pronounced
religious life in the College. Students are requested to se-
lect the church they desire to make their church home as
soon as practicable after arrival. Ordinarily this must be
the church of their parents. They are expected to attend
this church on Sunday morning. Attendance on daily morn-
ing prayers is required.
All resident students are enrolled in the Sabbath-school
conducted in the College by resident professors, and the great
mass of them attend regularly.
The Young Women's Christian Association holds a service
in the chapel every Sunday evening and also conducts mis-
sion study classes. Evening praj'-ers are conducted in the
chapel daily. The students have prayer-meetings of their
own. Besides there is a regular midweek prayer-meeting
conducted by visiting ministers.
SOCIAL LIFE
In various ways the social life of the College is brightened
and made happy. The two literary societies do much to
cultivate the social side by receptions, music, addresses, etc.
General Ineormation 103
The different classes entertain each other, and the Y. W. C. A.
gives several receptions. The MacDowell Club contributes
much in a musical way, while the Dramatic Club gives plays
from time to time throughout the year.
APPOINTMENT COMMITTEE
The Faculty has appointed a Committee with a view to
assisting Agnes Scott students in securing positions. All
of our graduates and other students who desire to teach are
invited to apply to this committee for registration blanks,
fill them out and file with this Committee. Address, Miss
Anna Young, Secretary, Decatur, G-a.
HOME ECONOMICS
The Home Economics Hall is well fitted with class rooms,
a store room, a laboratory, with individual equipment for
work in food preparation, home sanitation, nutrition and
dietetics and a dining room, attractively furnished for the
proper serving of meals.
This work offers peculiar advantages to young women dur-
ing the College Course which will fit them for higher and
wider spheres and enable them to apply the scientific princi-
ples which they have studied in other departments of the
College to the practical problems that arise in the home, the
most important problems that an educated woman is called
upon to solve.

SCHOOL OF MUSIC AND ART
MUSIC
The School of Music offers through its various courses in
the theoretical and practical study of music, in connection
with studies in the College and Academy, adequate facilities
to fit students for a professional life, and also to provide for
the study of music as a part of general culture or an accom-
plishment. The aim is to cultivate a more intelligent ap-
preciation of the art, to understand its structure and its rich
and varied literature, to loiow the history of its development,
its place in the general history of culture, and to develop the
power of interpretation.
Since no special line of study can be successful without a
broad foundation, students are urged not to undertake the
study of music exclusively, until they have acquired the es-
sential elements of a good general education.
With this end in view, the work of this school has been
re-arranged, and this year, for the first time, courses are of-
fered, so that regular college students, working for a degree,
may include music as a secondary study, with full credit for
it, and special students of music may avail themselves of the
training offered in the literary courses of the College and
Academy.

sign and color, and work both practical and theoretical in the
composition of pictures.

GENERAL STATEMENT
The Agnes Scott Academy is a college preparatory school
for boarding and day students. The aim of the school is to
create the right spirit in its students, to. provide an atmos-
phere in which girls can gain self -control, a sense of responsi-
bility for themselves and their neighbors, and high ideals of
life and of character.
The school wishes to send out earnest students, ready for
the hard work of college and of life ; it wishes also that these
students may have the poise, simplicity and graciousness
which mark the true gentle-woman.
The Academy is a classical school of high grade with a four
years' course, accredited to Agnes Scott College, and to the
best northern and eastern colleges for women. Its course
has been carefully arranged after the best modern methods,
and will be adapted to meet two felt needs: (1) To give a
thorough preparation for college; (2) To give a course of
real educational value to girls not prepared for college, nor
expecting to go to college, and who yet desire the advantages
of a high-grade school.
The same high ideals which have always characterized
Agnes Scott will continue in the Academy. The curriculum
will be kept abreast of the best college preparatory schools.
The most improved modern methods will be used in all edu-
cational work. Only teachers of high and special qualifi-
cations will be employed. A high standard of scholarship
will be enforced.
General Statement 139
RELIGIOUS FEATURES
Girls in the Academy are at that period of life when an
education is most important for the formation and develop-
ment of character. Hence every thoughtful parent will de-
sire to know what are the religious features of the Agnes
Scott Academy. The chief end of the Academy, as of the
College, is the glory of God. The indispensable qualification
of every teacher employed is Christian character. The Bible
is a text-book. The daily sessions of the school are opened
with religious exercises. An earnest effort is made to fill the
home and the school with a spiritual atmosphere. On Sab-
bath the resident students attend the Sabbath school in the
College chapel, conducted by the Faculties of the College and
Academy. Attendance at church service in the morning is
required. The Young Woman's Christian Association of the
Academy meets every Sabbath evening, has its Bible study
classes, and is an important influence in the spiritual life of
the school.
ENVIRONMENT
The environment of a girl in the Academy is of great im-
portance. She will live in an atmosphere of refinement,
scholarship and religion. A high moral tone pervades the
whole institution. Close and sympathetic relations are grad-
ually established between the girls and the teachers. The
spirit in which discipline is administered tends to develop
strong moral character. Only such restraint is exercised as
is necessary to secure the right beginnings and uniform main-
tenance of proper habits. Honesty and order are the watch-
words of the school. To each girl there will be granted just
so much liberty as she is capable of using aright. Those
140 Agnes Scott Academy
students who can not readily bring themselves into an earnest
and conscientious support of the administration will not be
allowed to remain.
SOCIAL LIFE
Everything possible is done to keep the social life of the
Academy on the highest, happiest plane. The Faculty is
helped greatly in this by the various student organizations
the Y. W. C. A., the Academy Glee Club, the Athletic As-
sociation, the Plopkins Literary Society. Several social af-
fairs are given for the students by the Y. W. C. A. ; the Glee
Club has its annual concert and at other times adds to the
pleasure of the students; the Athletic Association touches
both the athletic and social life; the Hopkins Literary So-
ciety, meeting every second week, forms a center of literary
and social interest.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
English. For the first year's work in English, the appli-
cant should have completed satisfactorily a grammar of
ordinary grammar school grade. A thorough knowledge of
all the parts of speech, of classification of sentences, analysis,
parsing, punctuation and capitalization, letter-writing and
simple composition, is neccessary for the rapid review of this
year.
Mathematics. To enter the first year's work in Mathe-
matics, the student must have completed satisfactorily the
Arithmetic of the eighth grade of the ordinary grammar
school.
History. A knowledge of the prominent persons, places
and events in the history of the United States as presented
General Statement. 141
in a standard text, as Fisher's, or Montgomery's Leading
Facts of American History.
Geography. The completion of the last of the series of
standard texts such as Frye's, or Tarr and McMurray's, with
especial emphasis npon Europe and America.
For admission to the regular first-year work of the Acad-
emy, written tests are required for English Grammar and
Arithmetic. These tests are given on the Thursday following
the opening Wednesday.
ADMISSION TO ADVANCED CLASSES
In order to be admitted to the advanced classes, students
must furnish satisfactory proof that all intermediate work
has been done. The assignment of work will be made by
subjects rather than by classes. The objects kept in mind by
the Faculty are (1) to require no repetition of work which
has been previously done in a satisfactory manner and (2)
to secure the completion of the course in as short a time as
possible.
Admission is granted in two ways: (1) by certificate; (2)
by test.
1. Admission by Certificate. A certificate from a
school which we recognize as of equivalent grade is accepted
for those subjects, or parts of subjects, covered by it. This
certificate must be explicit in every particular and must be
made on our own blanks which will be furnished by us upon
application.
2. Admission by Test. Students coming from schools
whose courses have not been approved by the Faculty of the
143 Agnes Scott Academy
Academy will be tested as to their ability to do the work
desired.
Written examinations are not required in those subjects
which will be pursued in the Academy. In order to deter-
mine the proper classification of the applicant in such sub-
jects, oral tests supplemented by written exercises are given
by the heads of the respective departments. Assignment to
classes based upon these tests is subject to change whenever
and in whatever particular the head of the department and
the teacher of the class may determine. In these tests stress
is not laid upon fullness and freshness of knowledge. The
object is to find out the thoroughness and the spirit of the
previous work, and the natural ability of the student. The
anxiety and embarrassment attendant upon entrance into a
new school is taken into account. Whatever method of test
is used, the full information asked of those who enter upon
certificate is required.
English Grammar and Arithmetic. Any student who,
in any part of her course, shows signs of weakness in either
English Grammar or Arithmetic will at once be thoroughly
tested; and, if necessary, review work will be given to her in
one or both of these subjects.
No mid-year or final examination is to be taken anywhere
except at the Academy and under the teachers of the Acad-
emy.
Certificates will not be accepted for work done in the sum-
mer,

DESCRIPTION OF COURSES OF STUDY
College Preparatory. This course has been arranged to
give thorough preparation for the Freshman Class of college
work. Students taking it are accepted without examination
by Vassar, Wellesley, Smith, Mt. Holyoke, Eandolph-Macon,
Agnes Scott Colleges. It contains all the subjects required
for entrance, gives to each the time demanded, and covers
the ground required. This course, therefore, meets the de-
mands of that class of students who expect to enter college,
and we will fully prepare them for the work before them.
General Course. Not every girl expects to enter college.
A large number for various reasons will not go to college.
General Statement 145
This course is designed to give a good elementary training to
this large class. The effort has been made to offer electives
of equal educational value to the subject for vi^hich they are
substituted.
ENGLISH
Grammar, Ehetoric, and Composition. The first object
of this course is to teach the methods of simple, direct, and
accurate expression. The study of the principles of com-
position, oral and written, is not left to the later years;
from the beginning, the student is led to frame generaliza-
tions for her own guidance, and to express her thoughts
clearly and logically.
Weekly and semi-weekly themes are required, consisting
of descriptions and narrations from the daily experiences of
the pupils; of criticisms, character sketches, and discussions,
drawn from the studies in literature. The third and fourth
years include much formal outline work.
Literature. In general, the object is fourfold: (1) to
secure a ready apprehension of thought and feeling from the
printed page; (2) to give to this correct expression; (3) to
gain at least a slight acquaintance with classic literature;
(4) to foster a love of good reading.
The course arranged gives the College Entrance Eequire-
ments for 1911-1915.
