AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE

Location and History

Agnes Scott is a liberal arts, non-sectarian college for
women with an enrollment averaging five hundred. It is
located in Decatur, Georgia, about six miles from the center
of Atlanta, and forms with several neighboring colleges and
universities an educational center for the Southeast.

The College was organized in 1889 as Decatur Female
Seminary, with Dr. Frank H. Gaines chairman of the board
and later the first president. In 1890 it was chartered as
Agnes Scott Institute in honor of the mother of Colonel
George W. Scott, a benefactor of the institution. By 1906
it was ready to confer degrees and was chartered as Agnes
Scott College. At the same time, Agnes Scott Academy
was organized and offered preparatory work until its dis-
continuance in 1913.

Purpose

The purpose which has prevailed at Agnes Scott since
its founding has been to offer the best possible educational
advantages under positive Christian influences. It is the
aim of the College to prepare Christian women to be a
power in blessing the world and glorifying God.

The College was founded by Presbyterians, and its moral
standards and religious life conform as nearly as possible
to those of that church. It is not controlled or supported
by the church, however, and special care is taken not to
interfere in any way with the religious views or church
preferences of students.

The College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree. Optional
courses leading to this degree give each student the oppor-

Educational Affiliations 17

tunity to elect a course most in accord with her special talents
and plans.

Financial Resources

The assets of the College amount to more than
$5,500,000, divided almost evenly between endowment
funds and buildings, grounds, and equipment.

Educational Affiliations

In 1907 the College was admitted to membership in the
Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools.
In 1920 it was placed on the approved list of the Association
of American Universities. It was a charter member of the
American Association of University Women and of the
Southern University Conference.

Phi Beta Kappa

The College was granted a charter by the United Chap-
ters of Phi Beta Kappa in 1926. Each year the Agnes Scott
chapter elects members on the basis of academic standing.
In accordance with the general regulations of the national
society.

Mortar Board

In 1932 the College was granted a chapter of Mortar
Board, which emphasizes service and leadership. Each year
the local chapter chooses members from the junior class
who carry on the work of the chapter during the following
session.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

Agnes Scott has a resident student capacity of approxi-
mately three hundred and fifty. Total enrollment, including
resident and non-resident students, averages five hundred.
Because enrollment is limited, admission Is competitive and
is based on the applicant's excellence of preparation, gen-
eral ability and interests, character, personality, and health.

Applicants whose homes are not in the local community
must apply for admission as resident (boarding) students.
Exception may be made if they can live with close relatives.
Applicants whose homes are In the local community may
apply for admission as non-resident (day) students.

Absolute promise of acceptance cannot be given until
complete records are filed in the Registrar's oflice. This
Is usually the middle or latter part of June. If applications
are filed in the fall, It is possible to give rather definite infor-
mation after the first semester grades are available. The
College sends for these grades.

If a student has tentative acceptance at the end of the
first semester and maintains a satisfactory standard of work
throughout the remainder of the year, there should be no
question regarding admission. This of course assumes satis-
factory aptitude tests and medical report.

Correspondence regarding admission should be directed
to the Registrar.

Admission to the Freshman Class

Criteria for judging admission qualifications include the
secondary school record, scholastic aptitude test score,
English test score, principal's recommendation, health re-
port, and additional personal data which the College
secures.

Admission of Students 19

Requirements

1. Subjects. Candidates are admitted as freshmen upon
the presentation of sixteen acceptable units. One unit rep-
resents a year's study in a subject. The following are reg-
ularly prescribed:

English: four units

Algebra: two units (unless the requirement is met

in a shorter period)
Plane Geometry: one unit

Language: three units of Latin if a modern language is not
offered, or two units of Latin plus two units of a modern
language
Elective units may be presented in Bible, biology, botany,
chemistry, French, general science, geography, German,
Greek, history (including civics and social science), Latin,
mathematics, music (by examination), physics, Spanish,
zoology. See section on Entrance Subjects for more com-
plete descriptions.

The College recommends three or four units of Latin,
although the requirement may be met by presenting two
units of Latin and two units of a modern language.

One vocational or semi-vocational unit may be offered, or
two in exceptional cases. Not fewer than two units will be
accepted in any one language, and not more than four units
will be accepted in any one subject.

Agnes Scott believes that the preparatory school and the
college share in the responsibility for educating the indi-
vidual student and that an important part of this responsi-
bility is the planning of a course which will facilitate the
transition from school to college and provide continuity in
the total program of study. The College does not attempt
to prescribe the secondary school curriculum; it does feel
that the subjects listed above provide the best preparation
for the liberal arts program. However, a few exceptions
may be made for students of unusual promise who, because

20 Agnes Scott College

of their secondary school curricula, cannot entirely meet
these requirements. Such students may write to the Regis-
trar for further information. Under no circumstances will
admission be granted when less than sixteen units are offered.
2. Preparation. Applicants who complete preparatory
work In schools accredited by their regional association will
be admitted by certificate from these schools. Their certifi-
cates must Indicate satisfactory completion of entrance re-
quirements not more than two years prior to the filing of
the application for admission.

Pf^ocedure

1. Formal Application. The admission form will be fur-
nished on request. It is recommended that the resident
student application be filed in the fall preceding the session
In which the student is Interested. It must be accompanied
by a registration fee of $25.00, preferably in New York
exchange or postal money order.

If the application Is accepted, the above fee Is credited
on the September payment. It will be refunded on request
on or before June 30 of the year of entrance. After that
date It will not be refunded unless the preparation of the
applicant is Insufficient or unless the College finds it Impossi-
ble to admit her.

Non-resident students are advised to apply not later than
the spring preceding entrance In September. No registration
fee is required.

2. Secondary School Certificate. Prospective applicants
are urged to have sent during the junior year a preliminary
statement of courses taken and grades made. Certificate
form provided by the College should be used. This will
enable the College to evaluate credits and offer advice on
subsequent preparation. It does not obligate the student
to apply for admission.

Admission of Students 21

Prior to, or at the time of filing the application for
admission, the student should request the preparatory school
to submit a transcript of courses and grades to date. Cer-
tificate blank provided by the College is to be used. No
information regarding admission can be given until this
record has been sent to the Registrar.

The College will secure from the preparatory school
a statement of mid-term and final grades.

3. Scholastic Aptitude Test. Either the College Entrance
Examination Board scholastic aptitude test or the Agnes
Scott scholastic aptitude test and an English test may be
taken. Instructions regarding the Agnes Scott tests will be
sent to applicants during the early part of the year.

4. Medical Report. Blanks will be forwarded during
the summer preceding entrance. The report should be re-
turned promptly to the college physician. It will not be
acknowledged by the physician unless some problem is pre-
sented.

5. Assignment of Room. Rooms are assigned by the
Dean of Students. Applicants admitted with an early reg-
istration have a better choice of rooms than those who regis-
ter late. Special requests regarding rooms or roommates
should be filed very early.

Description of Entrance Subjects

ENGLISH

The requirement in English is designed to develop the
ability to understand and enjoy good literature of various
types and periods, and to think clearly and express oneself
effectively in writing.

1. Literature. The student will be expected to have a comprehen-
sion and appreciation of the content and form of some of the masterpieces
in drama, poetry, and the principal types of prose (narrative, essay, and
biography).

22 Agnes Scott College

2. Composition. The student must show a reasonable maturity of
thought and the ability to organize and present her ideas clearly in terms
of sentence, paragraph, and whole composition. Consistent correctness in
the fundamentals of writing (including grammar) is assumed.

LATIN, GREEK

Students offering either Latin or Greek should have a
thorough knowledge of all regular inflections and of the
common irregular forms; familiarity with the ordinary
syntax, vocabulary, and idiom of the authors read; and
ability to use this knowledge in writing the language and in
translation at sight.

1. Latin (two, three, or four units). It is advised that at least one
semester be devoted (1) in the second year to selections from Caesar,

(2) in the third year, if prose is read, to at least three orations of Cicero,

(3) in the fourth year, if poetry is read, to at least three books of Virgil's
Aeneid.

2. Greek (two or three units). Any systematic course which de-
velops the ability to translate at sight passages of simple Attic prose and
of Homer, and to write simple Greek.

FRENCH, GERMAN, SPANISH

Credit will be given for two, three, or four units. The
student should be able to pronounce intelligibly, to read with
understanding, and to use the language with increasing facil-
ity with each additional credit point offered. The goal should
be reading and comprehending without translation into Eng-
lish, and free handling of the language in conversation and
in theme work.

The fourth unit should give the cultural background and
the literary appreciation necessary for admission to a course
in literature.

MATHEMATICS

Two units in algebra (unless the requirement is met
in a shorter period) and one unit in plane geometry are

Admission of Students 23

prescribed. In addition, one-half unit in solid geometry and
one-half unit in trigonometry may be presented.

HISTORY

Total entrance credit in history, civics, and social science
may not exceed four units.

SCIENCE

Total entrance credit may not exceed four units. Each of
the following electives represents a year's study and should
include a large amount of laboratory work: physics, chem-
istry, botany, zoology, biology, geography, general science,
home economics.

MUSIC

One entrance credit in music will be allowed by examina-
tion only. This examination covers theory and instrumental
proficiency and must be taken at the college. Preparation
may not be done in college for college admission. For de-
tails of the requirements, see the section on degree credit
under Department of Music. Students applying for entrance
credit must meet the same conditions as those applying for
admission to degree credit courses. They are not advised to
try for this unit unless they have had unusual musical train-
ing.

BIBLE

The College will accept one unit in the Old or New Tes-
tament, or in the Old and New Testaments combined.

Admission to Advanced Standing

A limited number of students from other institutions may
be admitted each year with advanced standing credit. Each
applicant must fulfill the requirements for admission to the

24 Agnes Scott College

freshman class. She must present a transcript of her college
record, a copy of the college catalogue with the courses taken
Indicated, and a letter of honorable dismissal. Because ad-
mission on this basis Is limited, the College advises only those
students to apply who have made strong records and who
have followed a course corresponding to the Agnes Scott
program.

Students considering transfer from another college should
consult the Registrar as early as possible.

Candidates for the degree must complete the work of the
junior and senior years in this college. Exception is made
only in unusual cases.

Admission of Special Students

A limited number of mature students who do not present
acceptable entrance units and who are not candidates for the
degree may be admitted to classes for which they are pre-
pared. They will not be admitted as resident students.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE
CURRICULUM

Registration

Students reporting for admission in September go first to
the Registrar's office, where they are registered and given
matriculation cards. They then meet with the appropriate
committees for classification. Students who have not paid
fees in advance report to the Treasurer before going to the
Registrar's office.

A student who fails to register in time to attend her first
scheduled lecture at the beginning of the fall quarter is
charged a late registration fee of $5.00. A student returning
late from Christmas vacation is also subject to this penalty
unless her excuse is approved by the Dean of Students.

Selection of Courses

Students are expected to make themselves thoroughly
familiar with the plan of the curriculum and to arrange their
courses to conform with its requirements.

During the summer, students entering as freshmen indi-
cate tentative course selection on forms provided by the
College. These forms are returned to the Registrar's office
and are approved or revised by the Committee on Courses
for Freshmen. At time of entrance in September, freshmen
meet with the Committee for definite course selection.

On or before April 15, all students in residence file with
the Registrar cards indicating tentative course selection for
the next session. These course cards are approved or revised
by the Committee on Courses for Upper Classmen, At the
time of classification in September, the cards are obtained
from the Committee and presented to instructors for signa-

26 Agnes Scott College

ture at the first meeting of each class. They are then re-
turned to the Registrar's office.

A course of study which has been approved cannot be
changed without the permission of the proper committee.
Freshmen will consult the Committee on Courses for Fresh-
men, Sophomores, juniors, and seniors will consult the Com-
mittee on Courses for Upper Classmen.

All students must be definitely classified within two weeks
after their arrival at college.

Class Attendance

Attendance at all academic appointments is required of
freshmen during the first and second quarters, and of stu-
dents on the ineligible list, and of students who for any
reason are on probation. It Is expected that other students
will keep all academic appointments and will not be absent
without just cause. The responsibility for any work missed
because of absence rests entirely upon the student.

Attendance at tests announced a week in advance is man-
datory. Attendance Is required the day before and the day
after a holiday.

Examinations

General examinations are held at the end of each quarter.
Attendance is required. A student absent from examination
because of illness may take the examination In question at
the regular time scheduled for re-examinations (see below).
A student absent without excuse from the Dean of Students
or the physician Is automatically excluded from college.

Re-examlnatlons are permitted in the case of conditional
failure. These examinations are given in the first week of
the quarter following failure. Those failing in a re-examina-
tion are required to repeat the course or forfeit the credit.

A "special" examination is given only with the permission

Administration of the Curriculum 27

of the Dean of Students in response to a written request
from the student. This request must state why it is necessary
to take the examination at a time other than that announced.
Tf permission is granted, the student must present the Dean
of Students' receipt for $5.00 before the instructor is author-
ized to give the examination.

Credit Hours

Three quarters make up the college year. Credit for
courses taken is given in terms of quarter hours. A course
scheduled for three hours a week for one quarter will give
a credit of three quarter hours toward the one hundred
eighty quarter hours of academic work required for the
degree. A course scheduled for three hours a week for the
entire college year will give a credit of nine quarter hours
toward the degree.

Limitation of Hours

The maximum number of lecture or recitation hours a
week for freshmen is sixteen and the minimum fourteen.
With the permission of the Committee on Courses for
Freshmen some students may carry only twelve hours.

The maximum number of lecture or recitation hours a
week for advanced students is eighteen and the minimum
fourteen. Second and third-year students will not be permit-
ted to carry the maximum number unless they earned merit
grades in at least two-fifths of their work for the preceding
session. Fourth-year students will not be permitted to carry
the maximum number unless they earned merit grades in at
least one-half of their work for the preceding session.

Grading System

Grades indicating the student's standing in any course are

28 Agnes Scott College

officially recorded as follows: A, excellent attainment; B,
good attainment; C, average attainment; D, passable at-
tainment; E, failure with privilege of re-examination; Fy
failure without privilege of re-examination. The grades A,
B, and C are known as "merit" grades.

Exact grades are not announced to students. Reports
contain only the information: "Pass with Merit," "Pass,"
"Condition," or "Failure."

For a statement of the "merit" requirements for class
standing, see section on Classification of Students.

Honors Program

Seniors who are qualified on the basis of their general
college records may be admitted to an honors program.
This program involves concentrated study in the major field
and culminates in a thesis and in oral and written examina-
tions. It carries three hours' credit for each quarter of the
senior year. Through such a program the College believes
that intellectual values not possible in the routine plan of
courses may be achieved.

Students who complete the program successfully and
whose general academic records are outstanding may, on the
recommendation of their major departments, be approved
by the faculty for graduation With Honor. Students who
complete the program with distinction may be approved
for graduation With High Honor.

Students who do not elect the honors program but whose
general academic records are very exceptional may be recom-
mended for graduation With Honor.

Summer Courses

Students may attend accredited summer schools. Courses

Administration of the Curriculum 29

and credits must be approved by the Dean of the Faculty
before the close of the regular college session.

The number of hours a student may take in one summer
session will depend upon the quality of her work at Agnes
Scott, upon the length of the summer session, and upon the
nature of the courses chosen.

Summer work will not be credited toward the degree
unless the student makes the equivalent of a merit grade
in at least one-half of the hours taken.

Only one-half of the hours merited in summer school
may be used to meet the merit requirement for classification.

A student who attends summer sessions in order to accel-
erate her academic program may present for the degree no
more than the equivalent of a year's work done in residence.

Required Residence

Candidates for the degree must complete the work of the
junior and senior years in this college. Exception is made
only in unusual cases.

Automatic Exclusion

A student whose work is notably unsatisfactory at the
end of any quarter may be asked to withdraw from the col-
lege or by vote of the faculty may be put on probation for
the remainder of the year. If by the end of the session she
has failed to earn at least twenty-two quarter hours of degree
credit in academic work she is automatically excluded for
the next year.

A student who fails for two successive years to meet the
requirements for advancement to the next higher class is
automatically excluded.

A student whose continuance in college may involve dan-

30 Agnes Scott College

ger to her own health or to that of others may be asked to
withdraw.

A student who Is not in sympathy with the Ideals and
standards of the College or who Is not mature enough for
Its program may be asked to withdraw. In such cases the
judgment of the administrative officers Is sufficient, and It Is
not necessary that specific charges be made.

hours (including the basic course) and twenty-seven hours
in related fields. At least eighteen of these related hours
must be in one subject.

other year of the same language or when it is the student's
fourth foreign language. An exception to this regulation is

34 Agnes Scott College

made for students who are doing major work in Latin.
With the recommendation of the department and the ap-
proval of the Committee on Courses for Upper Classmen,
these students will be allowed to count elementary Greek
toward the degree.

Any student in any department of the college who gives
evidence of inability to write correctly may be required to
take additional work in English composition, even though
English 101 may have been passed.

In order to receive the nine quarter hours of credit
required in physical education, the student must complete
three years of work in this department. Special arrange-
ments will be made for those entering with advanced stand-
ing credit.

Requirements for the Major

Basic course: English 211. (English 101 is previously required of all

freshmen.)
Required English courses:

(a) Two of the following: 305, 306, 313, 314

(b) One of the following: 327, 328, 360

Required foreign language courses: Three full college years of a foreign
language or equivalent (two high school years count as one college
year).

Greek or Latin literature requirement: As a necessary background to
English and American literature every major must take either (a)
one college year of Greek or Latin literature in the original, or (b)
at least one of the following courses in translation: Classics 250,
310, 314.

Elective courses to complete the major and to meet the requirement of
related hours must be approved by the department. Courses offered
for the English major must be chosen from among those previously
listed under Composition and Literature.

Students expecting to teach English are advised to take American
literature. The department urges English majors to study Greek
through Homer and Latin through Horace. Other subjects closely
related to English are history and philosophy.

Students planning to do graduate work in English are reminded
that some of the graduate schools now require Latin, French, and
German (to be tested by examination) for the master of arts degree.

Attention is particularly called to the importance for English ma-
jors of work in speech. When an English major elects courses in
speech to meet the requirement of related hours, she will be expected
to compensate for this unusual concentration in the field of English by
selecting, under the direction of the department, courses in other
departments which will give the breadth of studies required of all
Agnes Scott students.

COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES

Extra-Curricular Program

The Student Organizations and publications occupy an
important place in the life of the college community. They
are supported in part by a fee of $20.00 which, at the re-
quest of the students, is included under the general college
expenses. This amount is distributed among the following
organizations: Student Government Association, Christian
Association, Athletic Association, the Handbook, Mortar
Board, Pi Alpha Phi, Lecture Association, Blackfriars, May
Day Committee, International Relations Club, Glee Club,
the literary magazine, the annual, and the weekly newspaper.

The Student Government Association is based upon a
charter granted by the faculty and has for its purpose the
ordering and control of the dormitory life and of most other
matters not strictly academic. Its membership includes all
students.

Agnes Scott Christian Association develops the spiritual
life of the students and cooperates with other student asso-
ciations in general Christian work. Most of the student body
are members.

Athletic Association cooperates with the department of
physical education in the management of sports and spon-
sors inter-class games, tournaments, swimming meets, horse
shows, and general recreational activities. Individual inter-
ests and skills are developed through various sports clubs.

and faculty, brings lecturers to the college community.

magazine; the "Silhouette," the student annual; the "Agnes
Scott News," the campus weekly; and "The Student Hand-

101

102 Agnes Scott College

book," a manual of information issued annually by the stu-
dent associations and mailed to new students during the sum-

national Relations Club, Pi Alpha Phi debating society,
Blackfriars dramatic club, glee club, art students' league,
cotillion club, and several literary groups. The classics and
science organizations. Eta Sigma Phi and Chi Beta Phi, are

religious life in the college. Students are requested to select
the church they desire to make their church home and are
expected to attend this church on Sunday morning.

Devotional exercises are held in chapel every morning
except Monday. Although attendance is not compulsory, all
students are urged to be present regularly. Other religious
services include Sunday evening vespers conducted by Chris-
tian Association and the tri-weekly vesper services led by
members of the faculty.

Health Service

The student health service is under the direction of a
physician who lives at the college and is on call at all times
in case of emergency. She is assisted by two registered
nurses who live in the infirmary.

Each new student is required to submit a certificate of
examination by her private physician, a certificate of success-
ful vaccination within six years, and a medical history report.

summer and should be returned to the college physician as
soon as possible. They must be returned by September 1.

Each new student Is urged to have ophthalmologlcal and
dental examinations during the summer preceding admis-
sion.

Each student has a 3S mm X-ray of chest made at the
beginning of the year. If anything abnormal Is noted on the
small film, a regular size X-ray Is made. The making of the
X-rays and the expense Involved are taken care of by the
state. The reports on the X-rays are sent to the student's
physician, and the family Is advised of any abnormality.

Free typhoid Inoculations are given if desired, and other
personal needs are met as far as possible by the medical
department.

Resident students who are 111 must report to the physician
for Infirmary care. Hospitalization is used as a means of
preventing Illness as well as of restoring health to those who
are ill.

The medical fee of $10.00 per year paid by resident
students covers ordinary infirmary and office care unless
special medication or nursing Is needed, In which case the
expense is met by the individual. Resident students should
consult the college physician before seeking medical or
dental care in Atlanta, Consultants are called in at any
time upon request.

ians cannot be reached, to make decisions concerning emer-
gency health problems.

104 Agnes Scott College

interests and ability. Academic counseling is done by the
Dean of the Faculty, the major professors, and designated
members of the faculty.

General counseling of students, particularly in relation
to non-academic matters and social and extra-curricular
activities, is centered in the office of the Dean of Students.

able for boarding and day students alike. In addition, for
non-resident students there is a special adviser in the office
of the Dean of Students.

Placement Service

The College operates a placement service through the
