Agnes Scott College 13

AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE

The purpose which has prevailed at Agnes Scott since
its foundation has been to offer the very best educational
advantages under positive Christian influences the training
and furnishing of the mind in a modern, well-equipped col-
lege, and at the same time the formation and development
of Christian character and ideals. Along with these ends,
it is constantly sought to cultivate true womanliness, a
womanliness which combines strength with gentleness and
refinement. It is thus the aim of the College to send out
educated Christian 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
possible to those which obtain in that church. Special care,
however, is taken not to interfere in any way with the re-
ligious views or church preferences of students.

The College offers only the B.A. degree. There are,
however, 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

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

All correspondence in reference to admission of students
should be addressed to the President of the College.

Applicants for admission should not be under sixteen
years of age. Candidates for advanced standing should be
of an age corresponding to this rule. Exceptions are al-
lowed for satisfactory reasons.

Testimonials of good character from responsible persons
are required. Certificates of honorable dismission from the
last school attended must be presented.

A deposit of $10.00 is necessary for the reservation of
space, which amount will be credited on bill rendered at
beginning of session. This fee will be refunded, provided
the President is notified of change of plan before August ist.

Application blanks will be furnished when requested.

For entrance requirements and for description of en-
trance subjects, see below.

For admission by certificate, see page 18.

The following subjects are accepted for entrance:

English 3 units

Mathematics 2]/i or 3J/2 units

Latin 3 or 4 units

History i, 2 or 3 units

French 2 or 3 units

Admission of Students

IS

German 2 or 3 units

Greek 2 or 3 units

Spanish 2 units

Physics I unit

Chemistry i unit

Botany Vi or i unit

Zoology y2 ox I unit

Physiology V^ unit

Physiography i or Yt. unit

A unit represents a year's study in a standard secondary
school, constituting approximately a quarter of a full year's
work.

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 the unit in addition to
the required two and one-half 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 en-
trance must be taken in College, and when both are offered
for entrance, 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.

STANDING TO WHICH STUDENTS ARE ADMITTED

The College admits students, I. As unconditioned Fresh-
men; II. As conditioned Freshmen; III. To advanced stand-
ing; IV. As irregular students; V. As special students.

I. As Unconditioned Freshmen. For admission to the
Freshman Class without condition fifteen units are required,
partly prescribed and partly elective as shown below :

II. As Conditioned Freshmen. Applicants desiring to
enter as candidates for the B.A. degree who cannot offer
the full fifteen units required for unconditioned entrance,
may 'be admitted as conditioned Freshmen, if they can pre-
sent a minimum of twelve unconditioned units. The re-
maining units necessary to complete the required fifteen
may be assumed as conditions, provided that the deficiency
in no single subject (except in the case of a modern lan-
guage or Greek) shall amount to a full year of preparatory
work in that subject; and further provided that at least
two and one-half unconditioned units in English and at least
one and one-half unconditioned units in Mathematics shall
be presented. Students entering with conditions in one or
in two subjects must make good such deficiency by the be-
ginning of the Sophomore year. Should there be a condi-
tion in a third subject, it must be removed by the beginning
of the Junior year.

III. To Advanced Standing. A candidate may be ad-
mitted to any of the higher classes on the following con-
ditions :

Admission op Students 17

1. She must stand examination on all the subjects em-
braced in the course of the B.A. degree below the class for
which she applies, unless she comes from another institu-
tion of recognized standing (see 2). Credit will be given
for any subject on which candidate passes satisfactory ex-
amination, but application for examination for advanced
standing in any subject must be made within two weeks of
entrance.

2. When she comes from another institution of rec-
ognized standing and desires to enter by certificate, she must
present a detailed statement of work done, and, at the dis-
cretion 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 records and notebooks
must accompany certificates of work done in the Sciences
and in History respectively.

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.

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.

IV. As Irregular Students. Candidates who desire to
take a partial course without becoming candidates for the
degree may be admitted to the College as irregular students
without class standing. Such students must present twelve
units for entrance. Of this number four and one-half are
prescribed namely, English 3 and Mathematics 13^2. The
remaining seven units are elective and may be chosen from
the lists of subjects accepted for entrance (pages 14-15).

i8 Agnes Scott College

These students are required to take a minimum of fifteen
hours of recitation a week, which may include Music and
Art, but at least nine hours must be academic work.

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.

V. As Special Students. Candidates of mature years,
not less than twenty years of age, are admitted without
examination to courses in which they are prepared to do
special work, according to the regulations prescribed for
Special Students by "The xA.ssociation of Colleges and Sec-
ondary Schools of the Southern States." Students thus
admitted have no class standing and are not in line for the
degree.

MANNER OF ADMISSION

Admission by Certificate. In lieu of entrance examina-
tions, the College will accept certificates from any high
school, fitting school, or seminary on the accredited list of
the Association of College and Secondary Schools of the
Southern States, or from any school accredited by other
college associations, when presented by graduates of these
schools. Certificates should be on forms provided by the
College. These forms will be furnished on application free
of charge. The certificate prvilege is granted to schools
only and not to private instructors.

Admission by Examination. Candidates who are unable
to present satisfactory certificates may be admitted by ex-
amination.

Any candidate applying for entrance examinations after
the times appointed for holding them will be charged a fee

DESCRIPTION OF ENTRANCE SUBJECTS

English

English, three units. The College entrance require-
ments of the New England, Middle, and Southern States
Associations of Colleges and Secondary Schools constitute
the entrance work in English,

The requirement in English has two branches, Rhetoric
and English Literature. The study of English should be
continuous throughout the four years of the high-school
course.

I, Rhetoric 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
clearness. The subjects for examination in Composition
will be taken from the English Literature required for 19 14-
15. 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 ex-
amination paper in English Literature. The treatment of
these topics is designed to test the student's power of clear
and accurate expression, and will call for only a general
knowledge of the books.

To meet this requirement in Composition :

I. 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 21

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 Rhetoric. 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 prep-
aration : In Rhetoric, Herrick and Damon's Composition and
Rhetoric ; Scott and Denney's Composition - Rhetoric ;
Genung's Outlines of Rhetoric ; Hill's Foundations of Rhet-
oric; Brook and Hubbard's Rhetoric; Webster's English
Composition and Literature.

H. Literature, one unit and a half.

I. Reading (1914, 1915). At least two selections must
be made from each of the following groups :

A. The Old Testament, comprising at least the chief
narrative episodes in Genesis, Exodus, Joshua, Judges,
Samuel, Kings, and Daniel, together with the books of Ruth
and Esther; the Odyssey, with the omission, if desired, of
Books I, n, HI, IV, V, XV, XVI, XVII; the Iliad, with
the omission, if desired, of Books XI, XIII, XIV, XV,
XVII, XXI; Virgil's ^neid. The Odyssey, Iliad, and
^neid should be read in English translations of recognized
literary excellence.

For any selection of this group a selection from any
other group may be substituted.

B. Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, A Midsum-
mer Night's Dream, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Henry
the Fifth, Julius Csesar.

Admission of Students 23

2. Study and Practice (1914, 1915). This part of
the examination presupposes the thorough study of each
of the works named below. The examinations will be upon
subject-matter, form, and structure. This requirement
means that the student should have been trained to use
simple forms of narration, description, exposition, and argu-
ment in her own composition. In addition, the candidate
may be required to answer questions involving the essential?
of English grammar, and questions on the leading facts in
those periods of English literary history to which the pre-
scribed works belong. The books set for this part of the
examination will be:

Shakespeare's Macbeth ; Milton's L'Allegro, II Penseroso,
and Comus ; either Burke's Speech on Conciliation with
America, or both Washington's Farewell Address and Web-
ster's First Bunker Hill Oration ; either Macaulay's Life
of Johnson, or Garlyle'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.

Latin

All students entering the degree course must present the
minor requirement in Latin and are advised to offer the
major requirement.

Minor Requirement, three units. i or 2.

1. a, b, and f (as outlined below) admits to Course o.

c must be able to translate into correct Latin detached sen-
tences involving all regular inflections and all common ir-
regular forms, and illustrating the principal grammatical

of the main principles of Latin syntax, and one period a
week throughout each year should be devoted to prose.

Translation at Sight. Candidates must be able to trans-
late at sight passage of Latin suited in vocabulary, construc-
tion, and range of ideas to the preparation secured by the
reading indicated above.

Major Requirement, four units. a, b, and c of minor

Admission of Students 29

units. The full work as given under the minor requirement.
In addition: (i) Thomas's Practical German Grammar,
Part II, in full ; last half of Hervey's Supplementary Exer-
cises to Thomas's Grammar ; or the equivalent of these two
books in grammar, prose composition, and syntax drill; (2)

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
Practical German Grammar to Demonstratives, page loi.

School text-books.

It is strongly recommended that the preparation in His-
tory include, besides the study of a text-book, parallel read-
ing, use of a notebook, taking of notes, and practice in the
filling in of outline maps.

A detailed statement of the most approved methods for
the teaching of History in secondary schools will be found
in two reports to the American Historical Association (Re-
port of the Committee of Seven on the Study of History in
Schools, and The Study of History in Secondary Schools,
both published by Macmillan), and in a publication of the
New England History Teachers' Association (History
Syllabus for Secondary Schools, published by Heath).

Natural Sciences

The student may offer one or two units from the five
units given below. Each should represent the work of one
year and should include a large amount of individual labo-
ratory work. This laboratory work should be directed by a
competent instructor and records made in a notebook, while
in the field or laboratory. The notebook, endorsed by the
instructor who supervised the work, must be presented be-
fore the student can be admitted to examinations, or accepted
on certificate.

Degree and Certificates 35

DEGREE AND CERTIFICATES

BACHELOR'S DEGREE

The College will confer the Degree of Bachelor of Arts
upon any student who satisfactorily completes the require-
ments as given on pages 37-38. These requirements, em-
bracing sixty hours of recitation and two hours in Physical
Education, cannot be taken in less than four years by
students who enter the Freshman class without condition.
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.
The B.A. course, therefore, is partly prescribed and partly
elective, and the electives are given under restrictions
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 pro-
fessor of the department.

36 Agnes Scott College

CURRICULUM

THE GROUP SYSTEM

A fundamental principle of the arrangement of the
courses for the B.A. degree is that of the group system,
which comes into operation in the choice of elective courses.
By requiring a certain amount of work to be elected from
each of the three groups, the College assures to its B.A.
graduates proper breadth of culture; and by requiring a
major subject, together with allied subjects, to be chosen
from one of the groups, it gives to the student also
the intensive training necessary for the best mental devel-
opment.

The groups are as follows :

GROUP I.

GROUP II.

BACHELOR OF ARTS DEGREE

Candidates for the B. A. degree must present sixty-two
hours of work, of which two hours' value must be made
in Physical Education. Of the remaining sixty hours twen-
ty-nine are prescribed and thirty-one are elective. All
courses are planned and electives chosen with the advice
of the Committee on Admission or the Committee on Elect-
ives.

*i. The prescribed hours are as follows :

English 6 hours

A Modern Language, or Greek 6 hours

Mathematics 3 hours

Physics or Chemistry 3 hours

Biology I ^ hours

History 3 hours

Bible 3J/2 hours

Philosophy 3 hours

29 hours
2. The elective hours are to be distributed among the
three groups as follows:

(a) A major subject of not less than nine hours must
be chosen, together with six hours from the same group in
addition to the major and the prescribed courses falling in
this group. The choice of the major subject must be set-
tled by the beginning of the Junior year.

(b) Three hours must be chosen in each of the other
groups in addition to the prescribed courses in these groups.

(c) The remaining hours necessary to complete the re-
quirement of sixty-two hours may be chosen at will, subject
to the following restrictions :

* One hour semester courses in Hygiene and Spoken English
are required of all Freshmen.

The Spoken English is not counted towards the degree. For
Hygiene, see page 83.

38 Agnes Scott College

(i) Not more than six hours may be taken in one de-
partment in any semester,

(2) 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.

(3) 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.

(4) One-hour courses may be taken only in connection
with two-hour or three-hour courses in the same subject.

(5) If a third language offered for entrance is taken
in College, it must be continued through Course i.

(6) Students offering for entrance neither Chemistry
nor Physics must take both subjects in College, one being
elected in the Freshman year.

3. Major courses are offered in the following subjects:
English, French, German, Latin, History, Biology, Chem-
istry, Physics, Mathematics, and Philosophy.

4. In order to receive the required two hours' credit in
Physical Education the student must have completed three
years of work in this department. Special arrangements
will be made for those entering with advanced standing.

5. Every candidate for the degree must not only have
completed the requisite number of hours, but also have at-
tained a grade as high as "C" on thirty hours (six being
in the Senior year), and a grade as high as "D" on the
remaining thirty-two hours required.

Curriculum 39

COURSES LEADING TO THE B.A. DEGREE

The following outline indicates the courses that are of-
fered to each class. The work of the Freshman class is
prescribed, but in optional groups. The unenclosed figures
refer to the courses of instruction as announced by the de-
partments in the catalogue, and the figures in parentheses
indicate the number of recitations or lectures a week in
each course.

Note i. Students offering only three units in Latin for
entrance must take Group B.

Note 2. Students offering for entrance one unit in a
third language instead of the fourth unit in Latin, must
continue this third language in College, or take an examina-
tion on the work offered.

Note 3. A student who has presented neither Physics
nor Chemistry for entrance must elect one of these sciences
in the Freshman year and take History in the Sophomore
year. If either Physics or Chemistry has been presented
for entrance, the other of these sciences and History must
be elected, one in the Freshman year and the other in the
Sophomore year.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Dr. Sweet.
Mrs. Parry.

The aim of this department is fourfold: (i) Hygienic;
(2) Esthetic; (3) Corrective; (4) Recreative.

The lecture course in Hygiene, given once a week during
the first semester, aims to teach the proper care of the body,
the means by which infectious diseases may be prevented,
and the principles of sanitation. The lectures will be illus-
trated by the use of lantern-slides.

The Hygienic element aims to bring about increased
bodily vigor, and the healthy development of the individual.

The Esthetic element is introduced by means of rhyth-
mical exercises, to gain bodily discipline, muscular coordina-
tion, and to develop grace and the sense of rhythm.

The Corrective exercises aim to overcome bad habits of
posture, and to improve the carriage of the individual.

The Recreative element is introduced through games and
folk dances.

Every student is given a careful physical examination,
both by the resident physician and the physical director, on
entering College. When it seems advisable the student is
given special light exercises in place of the regular gymnas
tic class work. Cases requiring special corrective work will
be referred to the parents, and with their approval arrange-

MUSIC

Professor Maclean. Mr. Dieckmann.

Mr. Johnson. Miss Hunt.

Miss Bartholmew.

The Music Department offers through its various courses
in the theoretical and practical study of music, in connection
with studies in the College, 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 accomplishment.
The aim is to cultivate a more intelligent appreciation of
the art, to understand its structure and its rich and varied
literature, to know 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
essential elements of a good general education.

With this end in view, the work of this school has been
rearranged, and courses are offered, so that regular College
students, working for a degree, may include music as a sec-
ondary study, with full credit for it, and special students of
music may avail themselves of the training offered in the
hterary courses of the College.

EXPRESSION

Miss Duncan.

The end sought through the study of this art is the har-
monious development of all the powers of being ; mind, body,
and soul sharing equally in the results ; to secure both the
visible and invisible development of the personality ; to
awaken, develop, and train the artistic instinct, that it may
find its highest expression; to render the course a potent
factor in the attainment of a broad, general culture.

The study of English is the basis for this course, the
technical training of voice and body being the means of
securing an adequate vocal interpretation of all forms of
prose and poetry.

A three years' course is offered :

First Year. Voice. Harmonic Training of Body for
Expressive Action. Readings from Lyric and Narrative
poetry. Arrangement of the Short Story for public reading.

Text-book : Foundations for Vocal Expression, Curry.

Second Year. Voice and Vocal Expression. Har-
monic Gymnastics. Pantomimic Training. Study of the
Monologues of Browning, Tennyson, and others. Arrange-
ment of the Novel for public reading. Studies from the

Spoken English

A course in Spoken English will be given for the purpose
of improving the speaking voice, for securing a correct use
of the sounds of the English language, and for the improve-
ment of the articulation. Application of the principles will
be made through the vocal interpretation of literature.

room for the residents of Inman Hall.

The Carnegie Library. This building, completed in
1911, is the gift of Mr. Andrew 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.

The College Library, occupying the new Carnegie build-
ing, consists of over five thousand carefully selected vol-
umes, 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.

LowRY Hall. This building, completed in 1911, is built
of brick and trimmed with Indiana limestone. It is one
hundred by fifty feet, and including the basement is four
stories high. It has steam heat, electric 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 Biology. On the left side
of the main entrance is a bronze tablet with this inscription :

"This Science Hall is perpetually endowed by Robert J.

98 Agnes Scott College

and Emma C. Lowry in Memory of their Son, William
Markham Lowry, Anno Domini, 1910."

The Biological Department contains two laboratories, a
lecture room, a professor's ofifice and library, a vivarium, a
photographic room, a storage room, and a museum. The
work of instruction and research commands the aid of suit-
able apparatus, such as microscopes, microtomes, ovens,
baths, charts, and illustrative collections.

The Chemical Department 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; 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 Department 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 ap-
paratus will be added before the beginning of next session.

The Gymnasium. This is a three-story brick building.
The gymnasium proper, with swimming pool, shower baths
and lockers, occupies the entire ground floor, while the upper
floors contain various lecture rooms.

The Alumnae Infirmary. This is a well-built two-
story frame house, located south of Lowry Hall. The build-
ing has been arranged so that it is admirably adapted to
its purpose.

General Information 99

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
each room with the nurse's room. The rooms are large,
well-heated and lighted.

In recognition of their generosity and affectionate inter-
est in their Alma Mater, the Trustees have named the build-
ing The Alumnae Infirmary. Sickness may occur anywhere,
and parents will doubtless appreciate the importance of the
Infirmary.

The Home Economics Hall is well fitted with
classrooms, a store room, a laboratory, with individual
equipment for work in food preparation, home sanitation,
nutrition, and dietetics, and a dining-room, attractively fur-
nished for the proper serving of meals.

Electric and Steam Plant. Electric light and steam
heat are supplied to all the College buildings from a modern
and well-equipped plant situated on the south border of
the campus.

Steam Laundry. A steam laundry, adjoining the elec-
tric and steam plant, is operated for the benefit of the Col-
lege community.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES

Scholarships

The W. a. Moore Scholarship Fund. Under the will
of the late William A. Moore, a Ruling 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
directed in Mr. Moore's will.

The Alumnae Scholarship. The Alumnse have
caught the spirit of helpfulness which characterizes their
Alma Mater and have given $1,000 to endow a scholarship
which is known as the "Alumnae Scholarship." The annual
income from this endowment is $60.00.

The Collegiate Scholarship. The College offers
tuition for the next session to the student, in any class below
Senior, who attains to the highest general proficiency. In
order to compete for this prize the student must pursue a
regular course. The scholarship is not transferable, and is
good only for the session immediately succeeding the one
for which it was awarded.

is necessary to pay for breakage of returnable apparatus.

Rooms are either double or single. For a single room,
occupied by choice, 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
professors are engaged and all arrangements made for 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

General Information 105

student to continue to the end of the session. In the
event of withdrawal on account of sickness, the amount paid
for board and laundry in advance of date of leaving will be
refunded, but not amount paid for tuition.

fore a student can drop any Special.

All letters on business or concerning the general man-
agement of the College, or concerning any matter affecting
the welfare or interest of students should be addressed to
the President.

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 allow-
ance to their daughters for spending money. When money
is deposited with the Treasurer for students, it is paid out on
their checks, and no other account is kept by the College
except cancelled checks.

io6 Agnes Scott College

TJie College tvill not advance money to students.

In cases of protracted sickness or contagious diseases,
parents must provide a nurse at their own expense.

Patrons must pay for medicines and for consultations.

The College exercises every precaution to protect prop-
erty 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.

It is a pleasure, as far as possible, to extend the hos-
pitality of the College to patrons and friends. In all cases,
however, visitors are the guests of the College and not of
individuals. All connected with the College, therefore, who
desire to invite friends are requested to arrange with the
Dean. Visitors, except alumnae, remaining longer than
three days will be charged for such entertainment.

Discounts

When two or more boarding students are entered from
the 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, a discount of ten per cent on
"Specials" taken will be allowed, except laboratory fees.

Students holding College scholarships will not be given
any further discounts.

General Information 107

In no case will two discounts be given the same stu-
dent.

A discount of $100 on tuition in the College will be made
to ministers regularly engaged in their calling who send their
daughters as boarding students. All other charges, includ-
ing branches under the head Special, will be at regular rates.

To ministers regularly engaged in their calling, who send
their daughters as day students, a discount of ten per cent
will be given on tuition in the College. Branches under the
head Special at catalogue rates.

No DISCOUNT WILL BE ALLOWED EITHER BOARDING OR DAY
STUDENTS FOR ABSENCE FROM ANY CAUSE EXCEPT SICKNESS,
AND THAT ONLY WHEN THE ABSENCE IS FOR AS LONG A PERIOD
AS ONE MONTH.

Parents must not expect to pay only for the time their
daughters are in actual attendance. No student will be re-
ceived for less than a quarter of the session, and then only
by special arrangement with the President.

No reduction will be made for holidays. Students not
returning after Christmas will be cha/rged to end of term.

The boarding department will be closed during the
Christmas holidays. One dormitory will be kept open and
arrangements for meals can be made.

Furniture

The College supplies the students' rooms with bedstead,
bureau, wardrobe, washstand, chairs, mattress, pillows, and
crockery. Each student should bring with her sheets, blan-
kets, 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 bed-

io8 Agnes Scott College

clothing should be the size used for single or three-quarter
beds.

All articles, including trunks, must be plainly and durably
marked with the name of the owner. Failure to comply
with this requirement causes great inconvenience and some-
times loss.

General Information 109

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
fostering 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.

These societies have beautiful and attractive halls in the
College. They meet every two weeks, and their programs
consist 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.

no Agnes Scott College

Athletic Association

Athletic sports, not including the regular gymnastic
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 Col-
lege affords excellent opportunities for outdoor basket-ball,
tennis, and field hockey. This field, situated conveniently to
the gymnasium, has been graded and put into good condi-
tion. 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
Alumnse Association was organized. The object of the
Association 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.

The Association has established a loan fund, and begin-
ning with 1913-1914 will lend money to students who need
to borrow in order to complete their college course. Only
Juniors and Seniors and students who have not more than
two years of work to secure a degree or a certificate may
borrow from the fund. Not more than $150.00 will be lent
to any student in one year. No interest will be charged till
one year after the borrower has finished her college course.
From that date all unpaid loans or parts of loans will begin
to draw interest at six per cent until paid.

General Information hi

Applications for loans should be made to the President
of the Association through the President of the College.

The officers of the Association are : Mrs. John Scott,
President ; Miss Allie Candler, Vice-President ; Miss Louise
Maness, Secretary; Miss Lizzabel Saxon, Treasurer.

STUDENT PUBLICATIONS

The students issue the following publications :
The Aurora. ^This is a monthly magazine devoted to
the development of literary effort among the students.

The Silhouette. 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
select 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 serv-
ice in the chapel every Sunday evening and also conducts
mission study classes. Evening prayers 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.

112 Agnes Scott College

APrOIXTMENT COMMITTEE

The faculty has appointed a Committee with a view to
assisting Agnes Bcott students in securing positions. All
graduates and other students of the College who desire to
teach are invited to apply for registration blanks, fill them
out and file them with this Committee, Address, Miss
