12 Agnes Scott College
AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE
The purpose which has prevailed at Agnes Scott since its
foundation has been to offer the very best educational ad-
vantages 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 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 glorify-
ing 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.
Admission of Students 13
ADMISSION OF STUDENTS
All correspondence in reference to admission of students
should be addressed to the President of the College.
Only graduates of four-year preparatory schools of recog-
nized standing, or applicants who can offer equivalent prepa-
ration, will be received into the College. (For the admission
of special students, see page 19.)
Applicants for admission should not be under sixteen years
of age. Candidates for advanced standing should be of an
age corresponding to this rule.
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 the
beginning of the session. This fee will be refunded, provided
the President is notified of change of plan before August 1st.
Application blanks will be furnished when requested.
For entrance requirements and for description of entrance
subjects, see helow.
For admission hy certificate, see page 20.
For entrance examinations, see pages 20, 21.

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 3 units in Mathematics will be accepted for en-
trance only by examination, when the student does not con-
tinue these subjects in College.
The entrance requirement work in French, German, Greek,
and Spanish 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) as irregular stu-
dents; (IV) to advanced standing; (Y) as special students.
I. As Unconditioned Freshmen. For admission to the
Freshman Class without condition fifteen units are required,

II. As Conditioned Freshmen. Applicants desiring to
enter for the B.A. degree, who can not offer' at entrance the
full fifteen units required for unconditioned admission, may-
be admitted as conditioned Freshmen, if they present a mini-
mum of thirteen unconditioned units. The remaining units
necessary to complete the required fifteen may be assumed
as conditions, with the following restrictions:
1. The deficiency in no single subject (except in the case
of a modern language or Greek) shall amount to more than
a year of preparatory work.
2. Unconditioned work to the following extent must be
offered :
(a) English to the extent of two and one-half units.
(b) Mathematics to the extent of two units,
(c) Latin to the extent of two units, if the minor re-
quirement be chosen ; or,
(d) Latin to the extent of three units, if the major re-
quirement be chosen.
3. Fifteen complete units, including the prescribed units,
must be presented before the beginning of the Sophomore
year.
Conditions (except in the case of a modern language or
Greek) must be removed at the' student's expense and with-
out faculty instruction.
III. 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 thirteen
units for entrance. Of this number five are prescribed
Admission of Students 17
namely_, English 3 and Mathematics 2. The remaining eight
units are elective and may be chosen from the list of sub-
jects accepted for entrance (pages 13, 14).
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 later desire 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 requirements
of degree students.
rV. To Advanced Standing. A candidate may be ad-
mitted to any of the higher classes on the following con-
ditions :
1. She must present :
a. An honorable dismissal from the college she has at-
tended.
b. An official statement of entrance requirements and how
absolved.
c. An official statement of studies pursued for credit.
d. A catalogue of the institution with her completed
courses marked.
e. An application for advanced credit properly filled out
upon a blank provided by Agnes Scott College for this pur-
pose.
Note. If the above certificates are not entirely satisfac-
tory, a detailed statement of individual professors will be
required.
18 Agnes Scott Collee
2. She must satisfy the entrance requirements of this
College. If necessary, credits presented for advanced stand-
ing may be used to satisfy any deficit in the entrance re-
quirements.
If as few as ten units have been presented for entrance
into the college from which the candidate comes, no credit
will be given towards the degree for courses that may remain
after deduction for entrance deficiency, except upon exami-
nation.
3. When she comes from a college belonging to the Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern
States, or to an association of at least equal standing, she will
be given tentative credit course by course, in so far as the
courses are, in the opinion of the heads of the departments
concerned, equivalent to courses offered in this College. An
examination on the work offered for advanced standing may
be required at any time, if the student's work should prove
unsatisfactory.
4. If she comes from a college of liberal arts which offers
the B.A. degree, but which is not a member of any one of
the associations referred to above, she may possibly, upon the
recommendation of the Committee on Advanced Standing in
consultation with the heads of the departments concerned,
be admitted to courses which continue the work of the courses
offered for advanced standing. Upon the satisfactory com-
pletion of these courses she may be given such credit for the
preliminary work as the heads of the departments involved
may deem just, full credit being given only in exceptional
cases. No credit, except by examination, will be given for
subjects not continued in this College, nor will the degree
be conferred upon such an applicant until she has completed
at least thirty year-hours of work in this College.
Admission of Students 19
5. If she comes from an institution not included in any
one of the above classes, she will be required to take examina-
tions for any advanced credit she may desire.
6. No credit will be allowed for courses taken by corres-
pondence, except upon advanced standing examinations given
by this College.
7. The B.A. degree will not be conferred on any student
who has not done at least fifteen hours of work in residence
for one complete session immediately preceding graduation.
Note: A candidate for advanced standing may expect
some unavoidable loss of credit in transferring from another
college.
V. As Special Students. In accordance with the regu-
lation prescribed by "The Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools of the Southern States/' candidates of
maturity, who are unable, for any cause, to present the en-
trance requirements, may be admitted to such courses as they
may be prepared to take, provided these courses are not among
those covered by the entrance requirements. This provision
is intended to afford an opportunity to two classes of women :
(1) Those who have completed their entrance requirements
so long since as to render them void; (2) Those whose pre-
paratory work has been interrupted in the past and never
resumed. The following limitations should be observed:
1. Applicants must be not less than twenty years of age
at the time of application.
2. They may not matriculate in any courses covered by
the entrance requirements without first satisfying the require-
ments in those subjects.
20 Agnes Scott College
3. They have no class standing. If they desire later to
transfer to the regular degree course, they must first satisfy
the full entrance requirements.
4. If they have completed the entrance requirements in
accredited schools not more than two years previously, they
will be expected to submit the certificates of such schools,
and enter as "regular," or as "irregular" students, and not
as "special" students.
MANNER OF ADMISSION
Admission hy 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 Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern
States, or from any school accredited by other college asso-
ciations of equal standing, in so far as such certificates show
the entrance requirements to have been duly satisfied not
more than two years prior to the candidate's application for
admission. Certificates should be on forms provided by
the College. These forms will be furnished on application.
The certificate privilege is granted to schools only and not
to private instructors.

DESCRIPTION OF ENTRANCE SUBJECTS
English
English, three units. The College entrance requirements
of the New England, Middle, and Southern States Asso-
ciations of Colleges and Secondary Schools constitute the
entrance work in English.
The requirement in English has two branches, Ehetoric and
English Literature. The study of English should be contin-
uous throughout the four years of the high-school course.
I. Ehetoric 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
Ehetoric, 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.
To meet this requirement in composition:
1. There should he prcictice in writing, the equivalent of
at least one theme a weeTc during the four years of her pre-
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
sentence, paragraph, and whole epmposition.

the student should have been trained to use simple forms of
narration, description, exposition, and argument in her own
composition. In addition, the candidate may be required to
answer questions involving the essentials of English grammar,
and questions on the leading facts in those periods of English
literary history to which the prescribed works belong. The

each of which one selection is to be made :
A. Drama. Shakespere: Julius Caesar, Macbeth, Ham-
let.
B. Poetry. Milton : L' Allegro, II Penseroso, and either
Comus or Lycidas. Tennyson : The Coming of Arthur, The
Holy Grail, and the Passing of Arthur. The selections from
Wordsworth, Keats, and Shelley in Book IV of Palgrave's
Golden Treasury (First Series).
C. Oratory. Burke : Speech on Conciliation with Amer-
ica. Macaulay's Two Speeches on Copyright and Lincoln's
Speech at Cooper Union. Washington's Farewell Address
and Webster's First Bunker Hill Oration.
D. Essays. Carlyle: Essay on Burns^ with a selection
from Burns' poems. Macaulay : Life of Johnson. Emerson :
Essay on Manners.
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 wiU have learned

stood, however, that this third unit includes five recitations
a week for one year. Students presenting the major require-
ment will be expected to take an examination in conversation

CURRICULUM
ADMINISTRATION OF THE CURRICULUM
REGISTRATION
Students report first to the Registrar's oflSee, where they
are registered and given their matriculation cards. They
then meet with the appropriate Committees for classifica-
tion.
CLASSIFICATION
Students are expected to make themselves thoroughly fa-
miliar with the plan of the curriculum and to arrange their
courses so as to conform with its demands. By so doing
th^y will greatly reduce the necessarily arduous work of the
Committees.
First year students present their cards to the Committee
on Admission, and their courses are selected with the advice
of this Committee. On or before April fifteenth, all stu-
dents at that time in residence are required to file with the
Registrar tentative statements of their courses for the next
ensuing year. These programmes are reviewed by the Com-
mittee on Electives and approved or revised. The cards,
with the courses entered upon them in due form, are obtained
from the Registrar in the fall, presented to the professors of
the subjects, and, when they have been properly signed, re-
turned to the Registrar's office.
After a course has been agreed upon by the student, with
the advice of the Committee on Admission or the Committee
on Electives, no change will be permitted, unless the question
Curriculum 39
of the student's health be involved. All students must be
definitely classified within two weeks after their arrival at
the College.
ATTENDANCE ON LECTURES
Students are required to attend their lectures regularly and
promptly. Absence from courses without due excuse results
inevitably in the lowering of the student's standing. Pro-
fessors are authorized to require students to make up work
by taking written tests covering the periods lost through ab-
sence, whether the absence be excused or unexcused.
Attendance upon lectures is counted from the beginning
of each course, and students are held responsible accord-
ingly.
EXAMINATIONS
1. General examinations are held twice a year, in Jan-
uary and in May. Failure to attend any of these examina-
tions, for any cause other than sickness, results in the drop-
ping of the delinquent from the student body. In case of
absence from examination because of sickness, the student
will be given an opportunity to take the examination in
question at the regular time set for re-examinations. (See
below.)
2. Examinations for advanced standing upon work done
in some other institution, or in the summer, must be taken
at such time as may be arranged for by the professors whose
departments are concerned, provided that such examinations
may not be given later than December fifteenth for the first
semester's work, nor later than April fifteenth for the sec-
ond semester's work. These examinations for advanced
standing are more extended than ordinary examinations, be-
40 Agnes Scott College
ing in no case less than five hours in duration. In the case
of failure on an examination for advanced standing, no re-
examination is permitted.
3. Ee-examinations are allowed in case of conditional fail-
ure. These examinations for the first semester's work are
given in the second week of the second semester, and for the
second semester's work in the first week of the fall semes-
ter next following. Those failing in the re-examination will
be required to repeat the course in question or forfeit the
credit. In no case will more than one re-examination be al-
lowed in the same subject.
In case of unconditional failure in a subject, no re-ex-
amination will be allowed.
4. If for any cause students find it advisable to apply
for examinations at any other time than that announced in
the regular schedule, or arranged for by the professors in-
volved, such applicants must present the Eegistrar's re-
ceipt for five dollars ($5.00) for each examination desired,
before the professors are authorized to give the same. Such
examinations are known as "Special" examinations.
This regulation applies to re-examinations as well as to
general and advanced examinations.
SEMESTER AND YEAR CREDITS
A semester credit is the value in half hours of any course
pursued through one semester. Thus, if a course scheduled
for three hours a week for one semester be taken, the re-
sulting credit towards the sixty-two hours required for the
degree is one hour and a half. A year credit is the value
in hours of a course pursued throughout the year. Thus, a
CUREICULUM 41
course scheduled for three hours a week for the whole year
will give a credit of three hours towards the degree.
MERIT POINTS
Grades indicating the student's standing in any course
are oflBcially recorded as follows: "A/' excellent attainment;
"B," very good attainment; "C" good attainment; 'TD/'
passable attainment; "E," failure, with privilege of re-exam-
ination; "r/' unconditional failure. The grades "A/' "B/'
and "C," are known as "merit" grades, each of these letters
denoting a certain number of "merit points." In order to
attain the Bachelor of Arts degree, a student must be cred-
ited with at least thirty of these merit points, not fewer than
six of which must be made in her senior year. On the re-
maining hours of the course a grade of at least ^TD" must
be made.
Exact grades are not announced to students, their reports
containing only the information, "Passed with merit,"
"Passed," or "Failed."
REQUIRED RESIDENCE
The degree will not be conferred upon any student who
has not done at least one full session of work in residence.
AUTOMATIC EXCLUSION
It is the purpose of the College to extend every possible
encouragement to students in their work, and to deal in fair-
ness and sympathy with all who are unable to meet satisfac-
torily the demands of its standards. It is clearly recognized
that there are many who require time for the readjustments
of college life, and abundant experience has shown that some
of those who are slow in adapting themselves to the new
43 Agnes Scott College
environment afterwards develop into strong and thoughtful
students. The first year in college is necessarily a time of
testing, and in some cases the whole of this year is needed
for a fair trial of the student's possibilities. On the other
hand, it would seem dishonest to the standard of the College,
to the student herself, and to her parents, to retain her in
the institution after her inability to achieve definite results
has been clearly established. Therefore the following law
of exclusion has been adopted and put into operation :
"Any student whose work is notably unsatisfactory at the
end of the first semester shall be put on probation for the
remainder of the year. If at the end of the year she shall
have failed to make credits to the extent of at least two year
courses, amounting to not less than five hours towards the
degree, she shall be considered to have excluded herself auto-
matically from the College for the next ensuing year."
Note. In addition to the enforcement of the above law,
the College reserves the right to request the withdrawal of
students who can not remain in residence without danger
to their own health or to the health of others, or whose pres-
ence is found to lower the moral tone of the College. Stu-
dents of this last class may be asked to withdraw, even though
no specific charges be made against them.
THE BACHELOR OF ARTS DEGREE
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
CUEEICULUM
43
groups, the College assures to its B.A. graduates proper
breadth of culture; and by requiring a major subject, to-
gether 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 development.
The groups are as follows :
GROUP
I
GROUP II
GROUP III
Language
HiSTOEY
Science
LiTKBATUBE
Philosophy
Mathematics
English
Sociology and
Astronomy
Latin
Economics
Biology
Greek
History
Chemistry
German
Philosophy
Mathematics
French
Education
Physics
Spanish
Bible
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE 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 thirty and
one-half are prescribed and twenty-nine and one-half elec-
tive. All courses are planned and electives chosen with the
advice of the Committee on Admission or the Committee on
Electives. Since the design of the curriculum is to reserve
elective courses for the more mature years of the student,
the Committees will allow postponement of the work pre-
scribed for the Freshman and Sophomore years only in such
cases as may for special reasons demand this procedure. (See
Section (10) page 46.)
44 Agnes Scott Colleqe
*1. The prescribed hours are as follows :
English 6 hours
A Modern Language, or Greek 6 hours
Mathematics 3 hours
Two of the three sciences, Biology, Chem-
istry, or Physics 6 hours
History 3 hours
Bible 3% hours
Philosophy 3 hours
301^ hours
2. The elective hours are to be distributed 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 settled
by the beginning of the Junior year.
Major courses are offered in the following subjects:
English, French, German, Latin, History, Biology, Chemistry,
Physics, Mathematics, Philosophy, and English Bible.
Note. The following may not be elected to satisfy group
requirements as to the major or the allied hours :
(1) Elementary courses (with the exception of the first
year course in a third science).
(2) Courses in Music, Art History, and Spoken English.
*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 92.
CUERICULUM 45
(b) The remaining hours necessary to complete the re-
quired sixty-two hours may be chosen at will, subject to
the following restrictions:
(1) ISTot more than six hours may be taken in any one
department in any given semester.
(2) Students offering for entrance two languages in ad-
dition to Latin must continue one of these two languages in
the Freshman year. Those offering for entrance Latin and
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 Freshman
year.
(3) Students offering for entrance four units of Latin
and no additional foreign language must take in the Fresh-
man year the elementary course in French or German or
Greek. This elementary course will be counted towards the
degree only on condition that it be followed by Course 1 in
that language.
(4) Students offering four units in Latin for entrance,
even from accredited schools, who do not wish to continue
Latin in College, are required to pass an examination cover-
ing both the Latin read in the last preparatory year and the
entrance requirement in Latin prose composition.
(5) Students offering for entrance one unit in a third lan-
guage must continue this third language in College, or take
an examination on the work offered.
(6) One year of a foreign language may be counted in
making up the requirements for the degree only when that
46 Agnes Scott College
language is the fourth foreign language that the student has
taken.
(7) If a third language is taken in College for entrance
credit, it must be continued through Course 1.
(8) Students who do not offer at least one of the
three sciences, biology, chemistry, or physics, for entrance,
must take one of these subjects in the Freshman year and
another of the three later. Those offering one or more of
these sciences for entrance, may elect history instead of
science in the Freshman year, taking one of the sciences in
her Sophomore year and the other in the Junior or Senior
year.
(9) Students electing Group D (see pages 48, 49), but
who do not major in science or mathematics, are required to
take, in addition to the science and mathematics prescribed
for all students, an advanced course of three hours in the
third of the three sciences, biology, chemistry, physics, or
three additional hours in mathematics.
(10) Subjects prescribed for the Sophomore year may
be postponed until some future year, with the consent
of the Committee on Electives, provided the change is sought
for one or more of the following reasons : ( 1 ) To afford
opportunity for the continuation of a subject, or subjects,
begun in the Freshman year. (2) To make possible the
beginning of a major subject in which the student is particu-
larly interested. (3) To enable the student to take Philos-
ophy 1 as a pre-requisite for desired courses in education.
3. In order to receive the two hours of credit required
in physical education, the student must have completed
Curriculum 47
three years of work in this department. Special arrange-
ments will be made for those entering with advanced stand-
ing.
4. For the requirements as to "merit points" and resi-
dence see page 41.

I 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 as 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 department has been
rearranged, and courses are offered, so that regular College
students, working for a degree, may include music as a sec-
94 Agnes Scott Collee
ondary study, with credit for it, and special students of
music may avail themselves of the training offered in the
literary courses of the College.
Degree Credit
Credit toward the degree will be allowed for courses ini
music under the following conditions:
1. The student must pass a satisfactory examination ini
Course 1, (see page 95), and demonstrate a sufficient techni-.
cal ability to play correctly with regard to position of hands,)
fingering, phrasing, rhythm, tempo, and dynamic effects
works of the grade of the simpler two-part inventions ofi
Bach; C major and G major sonatas of Mozart; and some'
of the simpler Songs Without Words, of Mendelssohn.
j^OTE. This requirement, when offered at entrance into
College, will be accepted, upon examination only, as one unitt
in the elective group.
2. Students who have met the above requirement mayj
receive credit for practical music to the extent of two hourst
a year for three years upon the satisfactory completion of!
the following work:
a. Two lessons weekly of half an hour each in piano on
organ.
b. One hour and a half of practice daily for six days each
week.
c. Theoretical work amounting to at least one credit hour
in addition to the two hours of practical credit.

art department for the entire session.
Note. Courses 1 and 2 are accepted for degree credit, but
only as free electives. They may not be included in the six
allied hours required in the major group.
SPOKEN ENGLISH
Miss GtOGCH.
The aim of this work is to awaken thought and feeling in
the student and to bring into harmony the use of the mind,
voice, and body; to arouse and train artistic instinct so that
it may find its highest expression.
The method used deals with causes, not efiects, in speech
and action. It is based on natural, not mechanical, princi-
ples. Vocal expression is studied as a manifestation of the
processes of thinking and as a means of adequately revealing
thought. The study of English, therefore, is a basis for the
work, the technical training of voice and body being the means
of securing true vocal interpretation of the various forms
of literature.
"With regard to the courses offered below the following limi-
tations should be observed:
1. Course 1 is required of all first year students, but does
not count towards the degree.
2. Of the remaining four courses not more than two may
be elected for degree credit, making a total of not more than
four hours towards the degree.
3. These courses may not be included in the English
major nor used in satisfying the major group requirement.
102 Agnes Scott College
4. If both music and Spoken English be elected, not more
than nine hours in these two subjects combined may be
counted toward the degree.
1. Elementary Voice Training. This course is given
for the purpose of improving the speaking voice, for securing
a correct use of the sounds of the language, and for the im-
provement of the articulation. The common errors of articu-
lation, pronunciation, and the provincialisms of every-day
speech are definitely pointed out. Application of the prin-
ciples of speech is made through the vocal interpretation of
literature, story telling, and extemporaneous speeches on cur-
rent topics of general interest.
Second semester:
Section A: Friday, 9:2010:20.
Section B: Friday, 12:201:20,
No credit.
Required of all first year students.
2. Fundamental Work in Vocal Expression. ^Theory

BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT
The buildings of the College, twenty in number, includ-
ing several cottages occupied by members of the faculty, are
situated upon a well-shaded and spacious campus of rare nat-
ural beauty. With the exception of the White House, the In-
firmary and the Laundry, all the principal buildings are sub-
stantially constructed of brick, with trimmings of granite,
limestone, or marble. Eeaders of this Bulletin will be es-
pecially interested in such of these buildings as form the work-
ing plant of the institution, and so the follovring brief descrip-
tion is given. Application may be made to the Eegistrar for
any special information that may be desired concerning the
halls of residence.
Academic Halls
The Agnes Scott Hall was the gift of the late Colonel
George W. Scott, the revered and generous friend of the
College by whose munificence its existence was originally
made possible. This building contains the offices of adminis-
tration, besides various lecture-rooms, reception rooms, the
art studio, and piano practice rooms. It is centrally situated
and easily accessible from all parts of the campus. (See also
Eesidence Halls, below.)
The Carnegie Library, the gift of Mr. Andrew Carnegie,
is a two-story structure containing a lofty and spacious read-
106 Agnes Scott College
ing-room, librarian's oflBces, special department study rooms,
and stack space for twenty thousand volumes. The College
library, occupying the Carnegie building, consists of over
eight thousand carefully selected volumes, exclusive of pamph-
lets, etc. The most approved card index system of cata-
loguing and the services of a trained librarian render all
books easily available to students. The reading-room is
supplied with the leading literary, scientific, and educational
magazines, and with journals of music and art. In addi-
tion to the general library, mention should be made of the
scientific library in Lowry Hall, and of the excellent col-
iection.s belonging to the two debating societies.
The Lowry Hall affords excellent accommodation for
the departments of biology, chemistry, and physics. It is
equipped throughout with all appliances necessary for the
proper teaching of these subjects, including electricity, gas,
and hot and cold water, both in the lecture-rooms and in the
various laboratories. 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
Markham Lowry, Anno Domini, 1910."
The department of biology contains two laboratories, a
lecture room, a professor's office and library, a vivarium, a
photographic room, a storage room, and a museum. The work
of instruction and research commands the aid of suitable
apparatus, such as microscopes, microtomes, ovens, baths,
charts, and illustrative collections.
The department of chemistry is well supplied with chemi-
cals and chemical apparatus and the laboratories have every
modern convenience that could be desired. Besides a large
General iNFORMATioisf 107
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.
In addition to these laboratories a geological museum is
being equipped, and already a considerable number of fossils
and mineralogical specimens are on hand.
The department of physics contains a large lecture room, a
professor's office and reference library, a dark room, a large
and well-equipped laboratory, and two store rooms.
Philosophy Hall, a two-story building, contains the
lecture-rooms of the departments of philosophy, education
and English.
The Gymnasium Hall is a three-story building contain-
ing, besides the gymnasium proper, various lecture-rooms.
The entire lower floor, forty by eighty feet in extent, is de-
voted to the department of physical culture. The exercise
hall is adequately equipped with apparatus for the work of
physical development. Adjoining the exercise hall, and
opening into it, is the natatorium, containing shower baths
and lockers, as well as a moderate sized swimming pool.
Residence Hails
There are four residence halls, in addition to three cottages,
giving dormitory space for two hundred and eighty students.
All these buildings are comfortably equipped, lighted by
electricity and heated by steam, and all contain both double
and single rooms. Each floor of every hall is furnished with
conveniently placed groups of bath-rooms, with hot and cold
water. All rooms are furnished with single beds, and other
108 Agnes Scott Colleqe
necessary equipment, including a clothes press or wardrobe '
for each occupant. Abundant fire escapes, together with hose,-!,
fire buckets, and extinguishers on every floor, reduce to aj
minimum the danger of fire; but as an additional precaution!
the residence halls are under the constant and careful super- i
vision of a watchman who is on duty all of every night.
The Agnes Scott Hall contains, besides the administra-i
tive offices, lecture-rooms, etc., above referred to, dormitory;
space for about seventy-five students.
The Eebekah Scott Hall, a memorial to the late Mrs.i
Eebekah Scott, wife of Colonel George W. Scott, contains,)
besides two dormitory floors, the College Chapel, the halls i
of the two debating societies, a large dining-room, a commo-
dious lobby, and various reception rooms. A colonnade con-i
nects this building with the Agnes Scott Hall and thus
renders available for the latter building the dining-room of'
the former.
The Jennie D. Inman Hall, a gift to the College of the
late Samuel Martin Inman (for many years the honored E
Chairman of the Board of Trustees), as a memorial to his
deceased wife, has three floors devoted entirely to bed-rooms, li
The wide veranda of the building is extended to meet that
of the White House, in which is located the dining-room for i
both these halls.
The White House affords accommodation for a number of 1
the ladies of the faculty, and has besides limited space for i
the occupation of students. The entire lower floor of this i
building is occupied by the dining-room, kitchen, pantries,
etc.
General Information 109
Three Cottages, situated on the campus, ofier accommo-
iiation for about thirty students. These cottages are com-
fortably furnished and supplied with all modern conveniences.
Assignments of space in them will be made only upon special
request.
Auxiliary Bulldingt
The Alumnae Infirmary, a well-built two-story house,
situated south of Lowry Hall, was added to the College
plant through the efforts of the alumnae. The building has
ibeen arranged so that it is admirably adapted to its pur-
pose.
f In recognition of the generosity and affectionate interest
of the alumnae in their Alma Mater, the Trustees have named
the building The Alumnse Infirmary.
Electric and Steam Plant. Electric light and steam
heat are supplied to all the College buildings from a modem
'and well-equipped plant situated on the south border of the
campus.
Steam Laundry. A steam laundry, adjoining the electric
|and steam plant, is operated for the benefit of the College
icommunity.
MEMORIAL FUNDS
The George W. Scott Foundation
In November, 1909, citizens of Decatur, in order to ex-
press their affectionate admiration of one of the town's most
useful and public-spirited men, and at the same time to as-
sist in perpetuating the work of the College which had been
so dear to his heart, contributed the sum of $29,000 for the
establishment of "The George W. Scott Memorial Founda-
110 Agnes Scott College
tion/' for the endowment of some department of the Col-
lege, the exact disposition of the fund being left to the di-

As a tribute to the memory of their deceased son, Edwin
Markham Lowry, Mr, and Mrs. Eobert J. Lowry, of Atlanta,
have contributed to the College the sum of $25,000. Theiij
income from this fund is applied towards the maintenance of
the natural sciences, and in recognition of the generosity
of the donors, the science building has been given the name
'Tjowry Hall.'' |
Scholarship Foundations |
The W. a. Moore Scholarship Fund. Under the will of
the late William A. Moore, a ruling elder of the First Presby-
terian 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 rl
for the education at this College of worthy girls of Presby-
terian parents who are unable to provide a collegiate edu-
cation for ther daughters," the same to be permanently in-
vested and only the interest used. Scholarships under this
fund are annually awarded as directed by the provisions of
Mr. Moore's will.
The Eugenia Mandeville Watkins Fund. In memory
of the late Mrs. Homer Watkins, formerly Miss Eugenia
Mandeville, an early graduate of the College, her father,
Mr. L. C. Maodeville^ and her husband^ Mr. Homer Watkins,
I
General Information 111
have given to the College the sum of $6,500, to endow a
scholarship. The income from this sum will be used to as-
sist worthy and needy young women in securing an educa-
tion in this College.
GENERAL SCHOLARSHIPS
The Collegiate Scholarship. The College ofiers tuition
for the next session to the student, in any class below Senior,
who attains the highest general proficiency. In order to
compete for this scholarship, the student must pursue a
regular course. The scholarship is not transferable, and is
good only for the session immediately succeeding the Com-
mencement at which it is awarded.
The Alumna Scholarships. The alumnas have caught
the spirit of helpfulness which characterizes their Alma Mater,
and have established two scholarship funds for the benefit
of worthy applicants who are in need of such assistance.
They have given to the College the sum of $1,000, the in-
come from which is known as "The Alumnse Scholarship."
The amount of this aid is $60.00 annually. In addition to
this, they have recently begun a fund, to be known as "The
Alumnge Loan Eund," the interest from which is to be used
annually for the assistance of those who wish to borrow money
for the completion of their courses in College. See page 122.
The Young Women's Christian Association Scholar-
ship. The Young Women's Christian Association of the Col-
lege offers a loan amounting to $100.00 annually, to be ap-
plied to the expenses of a deserving student who needs finan-
cial help. The College greatly appreciates the generous spirit
of co-operation which has prompted this movement on the
112 Agnes Scott College
i
part of the Association. For details as to the obtaining of
this aid, communications should be addressed to the Presi-
dent of the College.
Music and Art Scholarships. Scholarships paying
tuition for one session in Piano, "Voice Culture, and Art, are
offered. For the conditions governing these awards, see

FELLOWSHIPS
Two fellowships are awarded by the faculty annually to
members of the Senior class. These fellowships carry with
them remuneration amounting to the recipients' entire ex-
penses for one year, including tuition in any department of
the College (except "Specials") in which they may elect to
continue their work.
The following conditions should be noted:
1. All applications for fellowships must be in the hands

NOTES
All who have engaged rooms prior to the opening of the '
session will be charged from the beginning of the session.
When a patron finds it necessary to defer payment of
bills when due, special arrangements must be made with the
President. In all such cases, the Board of Trustees has
directed that notes be taken bearing six per cent, interest.
The Laboratory fee must be paid on entering classes in
Chemistry, Biology, or Physics for the entire session, and
will not be refunded. In addition a deposit of two dollars
General Information 115
is required of Chemistry students. This will be refunded at
the end of the session except so much as is necessary to pay
for breakage of returnable apparatus.
The maintenance fee is payable in advance and will not be

trained nurse. It also maintains an Infirmary with the con-
veniences of a modern hospital. The charge for medical fee
included in the general charge, page 113, is $10.00 for session
and will not be refunded.
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
patron to continue the student to the end of the session. In
the event of withdrawal on account of sichness of the student,
the amount paid for board and laundry in advance of date of
leaving will be refunded, but not amount paid for tuition.

It is recommended that a deposit of $15.00 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 open 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.
The College will not advance money to students.
In cases of protracted sichness or contagious diseases,

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 he made for holidays. Students not
returning after Christmas will he charged to end of the
semester.
118 Agnes Scott College
The boarding department will be closed during the Christ-
mas holidays. One dormitory will be kept open and ar-
rangements for meals can be made.
Furniturs
The College supplies each room with bedstead, bureau, ward-
robe, 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 bed 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.
Guests
I
The College regrets that it has been found necessary to
limit the free hospitality it has heretofore extended. Since
every space in the dormitories is occupied by faculty and
students, guests can not be entertained without serious in-
convenience except from Saturday to Monday. At such
times, after consultation with the Dean, vacancies caused by
the temporary absence of students may be utilized for guests
at a charge of one dollar a day. Whether guests are being
entertained for the week-end or for a single meal, permission
must be obtained from the Dean and meal tickets procured
at the business office.
The above regulations do not apply to the alumnae. When
they desire to visit the College they are asked to communicate
General Information 119
with the Dean stating the date and the length of the pro-
posed visit.
All guests are expected to conform to the dormitory regula-
tions.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student organizations and publications occupy a
most important place in the community life of the College,
and are commended as valuable educational aids in the work
of training young women for the highest efficiency. It will
be evident that these enterprises entail a certain amount of
financial expenditure. In order to reduce this expense to a
minimum, and at the same time to insure the continued life
and activity of the various necessary developments of the
student body, a general co-operative plan has been devised
by the students, which was put into operation by them for
the first time in the beginning of the session of 1916-17.
This plan is as follows: At some time in the early fall, an
opportunity is given to all students to contribute five dollars
($5.00) towards the general support of College community
enterprises for the fall semester. At the beginning of the
spring semester, a similar opportunity is given for a similar
contribution for the remainder of the session. Thus, by the
paying of ten dollars ($10.00) in the course of the year, the
student is relieved of the frequent assessments which will
otherwise be necessary. This contribution is, of course, en-
tirely voluntary, but it would be well for those who are
interested in the general activities described below to under-
stand approximately what financial demand will be made upon
them, and to come prepared to meet it.
Note. The organizations here named are those involving
the entire student body. The various other organizations,
120 Agnes Scott College
literary, dramatic, honorary, and social, are, of course, limited
in membership and so are not covered by the $10.00 of the
budget system.
Organizations
The Student Government Assocla.tion. This organi-
zation, 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 academic. Its mem-
bership includes all the students. The most gratifying re-
sults 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 ma-
jority, and the true co-operative spirit.
Young Women's Christian Association. The objects of
this Association are:
To develop the spiritual life of the students.
To co-operate with other student associations in the general
work of the Young Women's Christian Association.
To do all possible to advance the Kingdom of God.
The various departments of Association work are well
organized and render efficient service. The Association has
the sympathetic interest and support of the faculty, while
the student body, with few exceptions, are members. The
leaders among the students are also the leaders in this work,
and thus the organization wields a large influence for good.
Debating Societies. Two debating societies contribute
much to the social life and literary attainments of the stu-
dents. The Mnemosynean Society was organized in 1891
General Information 131
and the Propylean Society in 1897. Each society has an at-
tractive hall appropriately furnished and admirably adapted
to its purpose.
Athletic Association. Athletic sports, not including the
regular gymnastic classes, are managed by the Athletic As-
sociation. Interclass basket-ball is the leading sport in the
fall and winter months, while the annual tennis tournament
is the spring event. An athletic field affords excellent op-
portunities for outdoor basket-ball, tennis, and field hockey.
Publications
The students issue the following publications :
The Aurora. A monthly magazine devoted to the devel-
opment of literary effort among the students.
The Silhouette. 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.
The Agonistic. A weekly newspaper published by the
student body. It has as its object the promotion of loyalty
to the College and the dissemination of local news.
The Y. W. C. A. Handbook. A manual of information
issued annually by the Association, chiefly for the benefit of
new students.
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 practical after arrival. Ordinarily this must be the
122 Agnes Scott College
church of their parents. They are expected to attend this
church on Sunday morning. Attendance on daily morning
prayers is required.
The regular Sunday evening service and the mission study
classes, conducted by the Young Women's Christian Associa-
tion, are largely attended, as is also the tri-weekly vesper
service held in the chapel under the leadership of members
of the faculty.
APPOINTMENT COMMITTEE
The faculty has appointed a Committee with a view to
assisting Agnes Scott 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 Anna
Young, Secretary, Decatur, Ga.
ALUMN>E 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 institution, in each other and in the Col-
lege, 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 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
General Information 123
her college course. From that date all unpaid loans or parts
of loans will begin to draw interest at six per cent, until
paid.
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. C. W. Dieckmann,
President; Miss Catherine Parker, Secretary; Miss Lucile
Alexander, Treasurer.
BEQUESTS
Gifts to the College may take the form of funds for the
establishment of scholarships or professorships; of additions
to the material equipment; or of contributions to the general
endowment fund. Special conditions may, of course, be at-
tached to any gift.
Form of Btquest
I give and bequeath to The Trustees of Agnes Scott
College, a Corporation established by law in the Common-
wealth of Georgia, the sum of $ to be
invested and preserved inviolably for the endowment of
Agnes Scott College, located at Decatur, Georgia.
