THE OGLETHORPE IDEA

The Oglethorpe idea is to forge the strongest possible link
between the "academic" and "practical," between "human un-
derstanding" and "know-how," between "culture" and "profici-
ency," between past and present. We are persuaded that there
is ultimately no contradiction between the concepts represented
in each of these usually divorced pairs.

There can be no basic disagreement among educators and
laymen about the common elements of the student's real needs
and interests. They are to learn as much as possible about the
principles, forces, and laws influencing or governing Nature,
including human nature and human associations; to learn to take
account of these not only for their own sake but for growth,
guidance and direction for himself and others; to express his
deepest individuality in the work or calling most appropriate to
his talents; and to discover his proper place, role, and function
in the complex relationships of modern living.

Living should not be an escape from work. Education should
therefore encompass the twin aims of making a life and making
a living. But inescapably he is part and parcel of society. He
fulfills himself by the measure in which he contributes to the
happiness and progress of his fellows. Education, as an institu-
tion of society, has a social obligation. It cannot neglect either
the individual or the community without damage to both. The
social order at its best is best for the individual; the individual
at his best is best for society. The business of education is to
strive for this optimum.

What difference should an education make? There are people,
deficient in formal schooling, who are happy and useful. They
understand and get along well with their neighbors. They are an
influence for good in their community and earn a living by honest
effort. Any truly educated man displays the same traits. The
difference is in degree rather than kind.

Whereas it is usual for people to understand their fellows, how
much wider should be the sympathies of the educated man!
His contacts go beyond the living and embrace the seers of all
the ages, who as his companions should inform his mind and
enlarge his vision.

10 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

Never before have people been so alive to the necessity of
mastering rather than being mastered by the economic and scien-
tific forces at work in our world. Creative brains and individual in-
itiative, tempered by a strong sense of social responsibility, are the
only sources of payrolls compatible with a free society, and im-
proving living standard, and a better way of life. Where else can
we look for this creative urge other than to adequate education
of qualified talent!

We make no claim that formal education inevitably bestows
these benefits. We insist that it can. If that be true, how may
the mark be reached? We shall always have to remind ourselves
as teachers that education is a difficult art. The pitfalls we would
shun are hard to escape. Of all people, the teacher must remain
the most teachable. The quest for wisdom is never-ending. We,
too, must continually grow in order to stimulate growth in those
who come to us to learn. We shall also have to remind ourselves
that subjects are merely the means; the objects of instruction
are the persons taught. We must be forever mindful that edu-
cation, in order to be true to itself, must be a progressive experi-
ence for the learner, in which interest gives rise to inquiry, inquiry
is pursued to mastery, and mastery at one point occasions new
interests in others. The cycle is never closed, but is a spiral
which always returns upon itself at some higher level of insight.
Growth in everything which is human must remain the dominant
objective for the individual and for society.

We therefore stand for a program of studies which makes sense
from first to last, which hangs together, and which promotes this
desired result. Not only in vocational training but also in the
education of the human personality, the materials of instruction
must have a beginning, point in a definite direction, and prepare
for all that ensues. We necessarily make provision for and give
scope to diversified talents in preparation for varied careers.
But this much we all have in common: each man has to live with
himself and all have to live with their fellows. Living in commun-
ity, with human understanding, involves arts in which we are all
equally concerned.

HISTORY OF OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

Oglethorpe's history dates back to 1835 when a group of
Georgia Presbyterians, influenced by the example of Princeton
University, secured a charter for the operation of a church-sup-
ported university in the academic pattern of the nineteenth cen-
tury. Actual operations commenced in 1838 at Midway, a small
community near Milledgeville, at that time the capitol of the state.

For nearly three decades after its founding, the university
steadily grew in stature and influence. Its president during most
of that time, Samuel K. Talmage, provided gifted leadership and,
at the same time, gathered about him a faculty of unusual ability,
at least two of whom would achieve real distinction: James Wood-
row, an uncie of Woodrow Wilson and the first teacher in Georgia
to hold the Ph.D., and Joseph LeConte, destined to world fame
for his work in the field of geology.

Oglethorpe alumni went forth in those years to play roles of
importance in various fields. Perhaps the best-known of her grad-
uates was the poet Sidney Lanier, a member of the Class of 1860,
who remarked shortly before his death that the greatest intellect-
ual impulse of his life had come to him during his college days
at Oglethorpe.

But the life and service of the school were suddenly cut short
in the 1860's as Oglethorpe became a casualty of war. Her stu-
dents marched away to become Confederate soldiers; her endow-
ment at length was lost in Confederate bonds; her buildings were
converted to military use as a barracks and hospital. In a sense,
her fate became bound up with that of the Lost Cause.

After the close of the conflict an effort was made to revive the
institution, first at Midway and then by re-location in Atlanta.
However, the ravages of war, together with the dislocations of
Reconstruction, posed obstacles too great to overcome, and in
1872 Oglethorpe closed its doors for a second, and seemingly
final, time.

But three decades later, thanks largely to the determined
energy and vision of Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, the school was revived,
chartered in 1913, and moved to its present location on the north-
ern edge of metropolitan Atlanta. The cornerstone of the first

12 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

building was laid in 1915 in a ceremony witnessed by members
of the classes of 1860 and 1861; symbolically, thus, the old and
the new were linked.

From then until his resignation in 1944, President Jacobs
became and remained the guiding spirit of the endeavor. He de-
veloped a number of ideas and enterprises which brought nation-
al, and even international, recognition to the school. Most notable
among these were the establishment of a campus radio station
as early as 1931, and the completion in 1940 of the Crypt of
Civilization to preserve for posterity a cross-section of twentieth-
century life.

Still a new era opened in the history of Oglethorpe in 1944
when Dr. Philip Weltner assumed the presidency and, with a
group of faculty associates, initiated a new and exciting approach
to undergraduate education called the "Oglethorpe Idea." As
described more fully in the preceding section, the new departure
was founded on the conviction that education should encompass
the twin aims of making a life and making a living, and that to-
ward these ends a program of studies should be developed which
made sense from first to last and which meaningfully hung to-
gether.

The last twenty years of Oglethorpe's history have revolved
around the central issue of finding more effective means of
answering the challenge posed by these fundamental purposes.
At the same time, though the College remains sympathetic to-
ward all religions and encourages its students to affiliate with a
local church of their own choosing or synagogue, all formal sup-
port from church bodies was discontinued. Today Oglethorpe
stands as a wholly private and non-sectarian institution of higher
learning.

In 1965 began still another chapter in the history of the school.
As part of its steadfast aim to become "a small college, super-
latively good," the institution formally changed its name from
Oglethorpe University to Oglethorpe College a change more pre-
cisely reflecting its nature as well as its purposes.

The College has also developed a program of physical expan-
sion to keep pace with its academic growth. Construction of new
dormitories and a new student union building will open in the
spring of 1968. The new complex is designed not only to add
additional space to campus facilities but also to blend architect-
urally with the existing pattern of buildings on the campus.

HISTORY OF OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

13

To all of this, it may be finally added, Oglethorpe enjoys the
great asset of location in Atlanta one of the great metropolitan
centers of the South and one of the most rapidly developing in
the nation. A city blending the graciousness of the Old South
with the social progress of the New, Atlanta is a key center of
transportation for the entire Southeast, with excellent service by
air, rail, and bus; it is also a hub of the modern highway system
being built through the region. With a metropolitan population
of well over a million, an ideal location in the foothills of the Blue
Ridge Mountains, and a temperate climate throughout the year,
the city offers many attractions and cultural opportunities to the
Oglethorpe undergraduate as a part of his whole development.

ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE
APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION

Throughout its history, Oglethorpe has welcomed students from
all sections of this country as well as from abroad as candidates
for degrees. It is the policy of the Admissions Committee to select
for admission to the College those applicants who present the
strongest evidence of purpose, maturity, scholastic ability, and
potential for the caliber of college work expected at Oglethorpe.
In making its judgments, the Committee considers the nature of
the student's high school program, his grades, the recommenda-
tions of his counsellors and teachers, and his scores on aptitude
tests.

The candidate for admission as a freshman must present a
satisfactory high-school program which includes as a minimum
four units in English, three in mathematics and/or science, and
three in social studies (except that a fourth unit in mathematics
and/or science may be substituted for one in social studies). In
addition, he must submit satisfactory scores on the Scholastic
Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination Board. (Scores
of the Florida and Iowa State Tests will be acceptable if the ap-
plicant has taken one of these as a result of statewide policy;
also, scores of the American College Testing Program may be
used by those unable to present scores on the SAT.)

It is to the applicant's advantage to take the Scholastic Aptitude
Test as early as possible during his senior year in high school.
Details concerning the program can be obtained from high school
counsellors, or by writing the College Entrance Examination Board,
Box 592, Princeton. N. J. 08540.

The Oglethorpe application form contains a list of the materials
which must be submitted by the applicant. No application can
be considered and acted upon until all the items indicated have
been received. Applications will be considered in order of com-
pletion, and the applicant will be notified of the decision of the
Committee on Admissions as soon as action has been taken.

Though the exact date will vary from semester to semester,
generally the deadline by which admissions will be closed will be
announced by the College.

16 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM

The College invites and urges those students who have taken
the Advanced Placement examinations of the College Entrance
Examination Board to submit their scores for possible considera-
tion toward college credit. The general policy of Oglethorpe to-
ward such scores is the following: academic credit will be given
in the appropriate area to students presenting Advanced Place-
ment grades of 4 or 5; exemption but not credit will be given
in the appropriate area from basic courses for students present-
ing a grade of 3; neither credit nor exemption will be given for
grades of 1 or 2; maximum credit to be allowed to any student
for Advanced Placement scores will be thirty semester hours.

COLLEGE LEVEL TESTING PROGRAM

The tests are administered by centers across the nation under
the control of the College Entrance Examination Board, Box 592,
Princeton, New Jersey, 08540. At present, examinations are
given in:

General Examinations Subject Examinations

English Composition American Government

Humanities Analysis of Literature

Mathematics English Composition

Natural Sciences General Chemistry

Social Sciences Introductory Calculus

Introductory Economics
Introductory Sociology
Tests and Measurements
Western Civilization
Educational Psychology*
History of American Education
Marketing

Money and Banking
Statistics

Examinations scores above the norms established will benefit
the student in two ways: 1. Credit to the number of hours normal-
ly granted in the course will be given, and 2. Course requirements
where they exist for these courses will be fulfilled.

expected to follow regular admissions procedures and will be
notified of the decision of the Admissions Committee in the reg-
ular way.

SPECIAL AND TRANSIENT STUDENTS

In addition to regular students, a limited number of special
and transient students will be accepted.

Special students are defined by the College as those not work-
ing toward an Oglethorpe degree; they are limited to a maximum
of five semester courses, after which they must apply for a change
of status to that of regular student or be requested to withdraw
from the College.

Transient students may take a maximum of two semesters of
work here, provided that they secure a letter from the dean of
their original institution certifying that they are in good standing
there and that the original institution will accept for transfer
credit the academic work done by the student at Oglethorpe.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

All correspondence concerning admissions should be ad-
dressed to the Director of Admissions, Oglethorpe College, At-
lanta, Georgia. After receiving the application form, the appli-
cant should fill it out and return it with an application fee of
$20; this fee is not refundable.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO STUDENTS

Oglethorpe offers the worthy student many opportunities for
obtaining assistance in financing his undergraduate education.
These opportunities are provided under conditions which give a
reasonable guarantee to the applicants and the College that they
will go to those persons best able to benefit from them.

The many sources of revenue made available to the Scholar-
ship and Loan Committee include the Lowry Memorial Scholar-
ship Fund, the National Defense Student Loan Program, the
United Student Aid Loan Fund, the Educational Opportunity
Grants, the Una Rivers Grants-in-Aid Fund, the L. "Pop" Crowe

ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE

19

Memorial Loan Fund, and the Athletic Grants-in-Aid Program.
Additionally, Oglethorpe participates in the Federal College Work
Study Program.

Beginning July 1, Oglethorpe will participate in the Educational
Opportunities Grant up to one-half of cost for those in extreme
need.

Oglethorpe also has available loans at small interest rates
through two educational loan institutions: the Tuition Plan, Inc.,
and Educational Funds, Inc. These plans enable parents to pay
for tuition and other academic fees on a monthly basis.

Other funds are made available to the Committee by interested
persons, groups, and business firms from time to time.

Except in the case of loans, all assistance funds are granted
by the Committee as outright gifts to the student in the form of
credits entered on the semester bills of the College.

For further information, contact Audray Heath, Director, Stu-
dent Aid and Placement Office, Oglethorpe College.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

CLASS ATTENDANCE

The College recognizes attendance at classes as the responsi-
bility of the student. Students are held accountable for all work
missed. The exact nature of absence regulations is determined
by each instructor for his own courses. Such regulations are
published and distributed by course professor at the beginning
of each term.

GRADES

At Oglethorpe, the letter grade system of grading is used. The
range of A-D represents passing work; any grade below D is re-
garded as a failure. Students withdrawing from a course before
the end of the semester are given a "W" or a "WF", depending
upon the circumstances of the withdrawal. Students who do not
meet all the requirements of a given course are given an "I" for
incomplete at the end of the semester; if the requirements are
met within 10 weeks of the next enrolled term, the "I" is replaced
by a regular grade; if they are not met within this time, the grade
automatically becomes an "F". Grade structure and quality points
are as follows:

A Superior 4.0

B Good 3.0

C Satisfactory 2.0

D Passing 1.0

F Failure 0.0

FA Failure: Excessive absences 0.0

W Withdrawn 0.0

WF Withdrawn Failing 0.0

I Incomplete 0.0
P Passing (used in Physical Education and student
teaching.)

MINIMUM ACADEMIC AVERAGE

Though the grade of D is regarded as passing, the College
believes that students, in order to graduate, must exhibit more
ability than that required by the lowest passing mark. Therefore,

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS 21

a student, in order to graduate from Oglethorpe, must compile
an over-all minimum average of 2.0. No student will be allowed
to graduate unless this minimum is met.

For the student's own welfare, a graduated system of minimum
averages has been established. Freshmen are required to main-
tain a cumulative average of at least 1.7 in their course work;
sophomores of at least 1.9, and juniors and seniors of at least 2.0.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

Minimum requirements for graduation consist of the following:
forty semester courses (or their equivalent for transfer students)
totaling at least 123 hours; a cumulative grade average of at least
2.0, at least two semesters of physical education (unless ex-
empted by the Academic Dean); and the last four semesters to
be spent as a registered student at Oglethorpe. Graduate Record
Examination (GRE) must also be completed in all three sections
prior to graduation. All graduating Seniors must file application
for diploma with the College Registrar.

DEGREES

Oglethorpe offers three degrees to those meeting the necessary
requirements: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, and Bach-
elor of Science in Medical Technology. Under the Bachelor of
Arts, majors programs are offered in the following areas: Busi-
ness Administration, Economics, Elementary Education, Second-
ary Education (with concentrations available in English, French,
General Studies, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies), Eng-
lish, French, History, Philosophy, Political Studies, Psychology,
and Sociology.

Under the Bachelor of Science, majors programs are offered
in the following areas: Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and
Physics.

Under certain conditions, it is also possible for a student to
receive a degree from Oglethorpe under "professional option."
Through this arrangement and in accord with regulations of the
College, the student may transfer to a recognized professional
instiution such as law school, dental school, or medical school
at the end of his junior year and then, after one year in the
professional school, receive his degree from Oglethorpe. Stu-
dents interested in this possibility should consult closely with
their advisors to make certain that all conditions are met.

22 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

PROBATION AND DISMISSAL

Freshmen who fail to maintain a cumulative average of at least
1.7, sophomores of at least 1.9, and juniors and seniors of at
least 2.0 are placed on probation for the following term. If during
that term they do not substantially improve their scholastic aver-
age, they will be dismissed from the College.

First semester freshmen receiving grades of less than D in all
subjects will be dismissed, as will students in the sophomore,
junior, and senior classes who fail to maintain at least a 1.0
cumulative average.

All students on Academic Probation at the end of the spring
semester must attend at least one session of summer school un-
less exempted for cause by the Dean of the College.

STUDENTS CLASSIFICATION

For administrative and other official and extra-official purposes,
students are classified according to the number of semester hours
successfully completed. Classification is as follows:

30 hours Freshman 61-90 Junior

31 60 hours Sophomore 91 above Senior

NORMAL ACADEMIC LOAD

A normal academic program at Oglethorpe consists of no less
than four courses each semester, giving the student generally a
total of ten to seventeen semester hours each term. Regular
students in the day classes are expected to carry a normal load
and to pay for a full schedule of courses. No provisions exist in
the college for payment of reduced load except transient and night
students.

THE DEAN'S LIST

Students who earn a minimum average of 3.3 or better in any
given semester for an academic load of at least five courses are
given the distinction of being placed on the Dean's List.

DEGREES WITH HONORS

Degrees with honors are awarded as follows: for a cumulative
average of 3.50, the degree cum laude; for a cumulative average
3.75, the degree magna cum laude; for a cumulative average of
4.0, the degree summa cum laude. No grade in any course can
be lower than 2.0.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

23

HONORS ORGANIZATIONS

Phi Society: The Phi Society is a Freshman Honor Society rec-
ognizing those Freshmen who have achieved high academic per-
formance during their first year of study.

Membership selection is made in the third week of October
each year. Any full-time student who has earned a 3.25 accum-
ulative average in his freshman year and having no more than
three courses with a grade of "C" is eligible for membership.

STUDENT LIFE
ORIENTATION

At the beginning of each semester new students will be in-
volved in an orientation program, under the general supervision
of the Dean of Students. Orientation activities are planned to
introduce the student to both academic and social life at Ogle-
thorpe. Orientation group leaders from among the upperclass-
men serve as guides and counsellors during the period. Follow-
ing orientation, the student is then assigned to a faculty advisor
who aids him in planning his academic program.

STANDARDS OF PERSONAL DRESS AND GROOMING

Each individual has the freedom to dress and groom as he
chooses, and to select the school of his choice; however, these
freedoms are not without their responsibilities and consequences.

Institutions of higher education have their own personalities;
hence, they have the freedom to select the standards they want
for students who voluntarily elect to attend. When a student
voluntarily elects to attend Oglethorpe College, a private institu-
tion, he represents not only himself but also the student body,
the College, and in some measure, the community in which the
College has such deep roots.

The College takes the position that all students are expected
to dress and groom as mature, responsible adults, as ladies and
gentlemen. Dress and grooming are expected to be appropriate
to the occasion and in keeping with the positions of leadership
and responsibility in society.

Individuals who are unwilling to meet high standards of dress
and grooming should not apply to Oglethorpe College for admis-
sion.

Students who avoid these high standards or who deliberately
ignore them, either directly or indirectly, shall be terminated
from the College immediately.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES

All full-time day students are required to subscribe to the
Student Health and Insurance Plan provided by the College, un-
less married or residing with parents.

26 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

The College maintains a small campus infirmary staffed by a
registered nurse. The infirmary operates on a regular schedule,
and provides basic first aid service and limited medical assistance
for students covered by the student insurance plan.

A physician visits the infirmary periodically to make general
diagnosis and treatment. In the event additional or major medi-
cal care is required, the student patient will be referred to medi-
cal specialists and hospitals in the area with which the health
service maintains a working relationship.

When it is determined that a student's physical or emotional
health is detrimental to his academic studies, group-living situa-
tion, or other relationships at the College or in the community,
he will be requested to withdraw. Re-admission to the College
will be contingent upon acceptable verification that the student
is ready to return. The final decision will rest with the College.

STANDARDS OF PERSONAL CONDUCT AND RESPONSIBILITY:
THE ROLE OF THE COLLEGE AND THE STUDENT

Oglethorpe College takes the position that it is deeply con-
cerned with the total development of the individual as a com-
petent student and as a highly responsible citizen both on the
campus and in the community. The College's high standards of
personal conduct and responsibility are an expression of its con-
fidence in each student's potential as a human being; however,
each student must be as willing to accept adult consequences
as he is insistent upon being granted adult freedom of decision
and action.

Unfortunately, neither knowledge and wisdom nor knowledge
and integrity are synonomous; therefore, a firm grasp of acad-
emic studies will not in itself be an assurance that a student
is profiting fully from his college experience.

Individuals who do not desire to accept either this view of the
College's responsibility or its high standards should not apply to
the College for admission. Accepted students who demonstrate
their unwillingness to meet high standards will be terminated
from the College.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Valuable educational experiences may be gained through active
participation in approved campus activities and organizations.
All students are encouraged to participate in one or more organi-

28 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

zations and to the extent that such involvement does not deter
them from high academic achievement. Majors are especially
encouraged to join professional organizations associated with
their interests and goals.

Information concerning College activities and organizations is
contained in the Oglethorpe College Student Handbook.

HONOR SYSTEM

At Oglethorpe the Honor System is an integral part of college
life. Students are on their honor to respect the regulations of
the College and to abide by the provisions of the Honor Code.
The Honor System is supervised by a student Honor Council,
acting with the counsel of a faculty advisor.

FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES

College social fraternities and sororities were reinstituted in
the College in 1967. At present, seven local chapters exist with
several of them in colony status with national social fraternities.
These social organizations contribute substantially to the spiritual
and social betterment of the member and develop college into a
richer, fuller experience. Membership in these organizations is
voluntary and subject to regulations imposed by the groups, by
the College Interfraternity Council, or by the Student Government
Association.

ATHLETICS

In addition to a well-rounded program of intramural sports,
intercollegiate competition is carried on in soccer, basketball,
tennis, baseball, and rifle and pistol shooting. Students with
athletic skills are invited and urged to participate in any of these.

COLLEGE RESIDENCE REQUIREMENTS

Ability and willingness to room and board in College-operated
facilities are conditions of acceptance and/or continued attend-
ance. Freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors, in that order,
are required to room and board to the extent that spaces are
available.

Exceptions:

1. Married students

2. Students residing with parents in Atlanta and the surround-
ing area.

STUDENT LIFE 29

RECALL OF STUDENTS EXCUSED TO RESIDE OFF CAMPUS

When spaces are insufficient to house all students, seniors and
juniors, in that order, will be eligible to reside off campus under
one of the following provisions:

1. Subject to recall to the campus as soon as a vacancy oc-
curs.

2. Subject to recall at the end of the off-campus rental period
or within 15 days, whichever is sooner.

3. Subject to recall at the end of the semester.

BOARDING REQUIREMENTS

All resident students are required to board whether initially
assigned to the residence halls or recalled to the campus. Ex-
ceptions or adjustments will not be granted for personal, relig-
ious, medical, or employment reasons.

The semester boarding charge covers the period from the day
following regular registration through lunch of the day following
the last day of final examinations. The boarding charge includes
Thanksgiving vacation, but does not include Christmas vacation
and Spring recess. Resident seniors whose names appear on
the Registrar's official June graduation list are entitled to board
through lunch of the day following graduation.

During periods not covered by the boarding fee, students may
use the cafeteria on a cash basis. Students are urged to review
the College Calendar in order to anticipate their food and other
expenses during interim periods.

FINANCING

Students and parents desiring to pay expenses in installments
are advised to investigate the Educational Funds, Inc., plan, 10
Dorrance Street, Providence, Rhode Island; United Student Aid
Funds, Inc.; National Defense Education Act Loan Funds; private
banking or other sources. Information may be secured by writ-
ing to the Student Financial Aids Officer, Oglethorpe College.
Continuing students should complete all arrangements for meet-
ing College requirements well in advance of registration so that
they will not be delayed.

All balances and new charges are payable at registration. Fail-
ure to make the necessary payments at registration may cause

30

OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

the student to lose his place in the College. Students employing
Educational Funds, Inc., or any other source of funds, are not
exempted from paying deposits by the deadline dates specified
in the College Bulletin.

Continuing students are not permitted to register until all previ-
ous debts have been cleared with the Business Office. Grades,
transcripts, and diplomas are withheld until all accounts, includ-
ing institutional damages and fines, are paid in full.

Students should have sufficient funds to purchase books and
supplies directly from the bookstore.

WITHDRAWALS AND REFUNDS

Students who find it necessary to drop courses or change
courses must secure an approved drop slip from the Registrar
and present it to the Business Office for appropriate action.

STUDENT LIFE 31

Boarding students suspended from the cafeteria, College Cen-
ter, or other facilities or activities, are not entitled to refunds or
credits for the period of such suspension. Refunds on all involun-
tary and voluntary withdrawals will be made, of course, subject
to the conditions of the voluntary tuition insurance plan which
the student may elect to take.

Refunds under the Tuition Refund Plan may be withheld until
the student identification card is surrendered to the Business
Office. Keys and other College property must also be returned
prior to the issuance of refunds.

FINANCING

The applicant upon receipt of notice of acceptance, should
forward an advance deposit of $200 by the date specified in the
acceptance letter. This deposit will apply against the total charges
at the time the student registers for classes. It is not refundable.
Continuing students are required to pay $200 advance deposit
at the time of early registration for the fall term. If not done at
this time, payment is required prior to registration in the Fall
Semester. Registration is therefore contingent upon the deposit
being paid.

FEES AND COSTS

To affect the economy of efficiency and to avoid inconvenience
to both parents and students by assessing and collecting num-
erous separate fees, Oglethorpe has adopted the policy of charg-
ing one comprehensive fee to include in so far as possible the
entire cost of attending Oglethorpe College for a full academic
year (two semesters). The Comprehensive Fee is as follows:
Resident Students $2,352

Non-resident Students $1,702

Non-residents Metro-Atlanta Students* $1,302

For students living on campus, the comprehensive fee covers
the cost of tuition, laboratory fees, room, board, activities, in-
stitutional fees, personal evaluation and placement, and testing
and counselling. These same items, with the exception of room
and board, are also included in the comprehensive fee for stu-
dents not residing on campus. The cost of books, however, is
not included in the comprehensive fee.

^Metro-Atlanta includes the five counties of Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, and
Gwinnett.

32 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

The only standard charges not included in the Comprehensive
Fee are the following:

1. Student Health Insurance: Health insurance is handled
separately since it is deductible on personal income tax
returns. The cost is approximately $28.00 per year.

2. Tuition Refund Insurance: Tuition Refund Insurance is
optional. With it, the student or parent is assured the con-
tracted amount of refund of charges whether a student
withdraws voluntarily or involuntarily. Evening, part time,
and transient students are not eligible for coverage under
this plan. No other provision for refunds exists.

The first payment of the Comprehensive Fee, after the $200
deposit has been credited, is due when the student registers for
the Fall Semester. The second payment is due when the student
registers for the Spring Semester. The payment schedule is as
follows:

Resident Student Non-Resident Non-Resident Metro-

Student Atlanta Student

Advance Deposit ....$ 200 $200 $200

Payment 1 1,176* 851* 595*

Payment 2 976 651 507

$2,352 $1,702 $1,302

Newly constructed residence halls and single rooms will result in slight increases in
comprehensive fees for residents.

EVENING AND PART-TIME STUDENT CHARGES

Students who are enrolled as evening, part-time, or other than
full-time students will be charged on a credit hour basis as follows:

STUDENT LIFE

33

FINE ARTS FESTIVAL

Oglethorpe's Fine Arts Series brings to the campus a varied
and balanced program which stresses human enjoyment of artistic
excellence. This variety includes music, drama, literature, the
film, and the dance, as well as the graphic arts. The programs
are designed to acquaint the student with the range of the arts
as well as with the individual forms. The movies, for example,
are chosen from among those film classics which are not cur-
rently available in the commercial theatre, and they reveal not
only the high points of the film art but also its range and variety.
In dance, music, and literature, the program brings to the campus
individuals and groups chosen from outstanding living artists.
There is no admission charge to any of these programs.

In addition to the Fine Arts Series itself, the Faculty and Stu-
dent Fine Arts Committee offers $250 in prizes to encourage the

34 OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

student himself to explore the arts and to reward student achieve-
ment in this area. For music, $100 in cash prizes is given an-
nually; for poetry, $50; for short fiction, $50; and for painting,
$50. The prize poems and short stories, and when possible prize
paintings, are published in Prospect, the Oglethorpe literary mag-
azine.

PLACEMENT SERVICE

The College maintains a Placement Office to provide help to
students in securing jobs during their college career. Because
of Oglethorpe's location in the suburbs of the second fastest-
growing city in America, students can easily obtain part-time

36

OGLETHORPE COLLEGE

work. There are also some opportunities on campus for employ-
ment in various jobs. Another function of this office is to aid our
students in getting positions upon graduation. A register is kept
of firms seeking our graduates, and every effort is made by the
College to place students in areas and firms of their preference.

GENERAL INFORMATION
SEMESTER SYSTEM

Oglethorpe College operates under the semester system during
the academic year. Two summer sessions of five weeks each
make up the summer schedule. Beginning with the Fall semester
1969, and continuing thereafter, the College will initiate an inter-
term of four weeks between the regular semesters. The inter-
term will occur during the month of January, separating the first
and second semesters by a six-week period.

EVENING PROGRAM

As a service to the community, the College offers an evening
program covering three terms per year: one during each semester
and one during the summer. Classes meet two nights each week
(Monday and Wednesday; Tuesday and Thursday) with two class
periods each night.

A special single meeting on Friday evening is available upon
sufficient enrollment.

Effective in the Fall 1968, all night students (those completing
50 or more percent of their Oglethorpe work in the night pro-
gram) will be required to major in the General Studies Major
Program. This program requires completion of the courses in-
dicated elsewhere in this bulletin and a sufficient number of
additional course hours up to the number prescribed for a degree.
The degree granted will be the Bachelor of Arts-General Studies.

The General Studies program, because of its flexibility, enables
the student to concentrate in any selected program offered by
the College.

The General Studies Major is opened to day division students
who may wish to pursue the program.

to 299, courses especially for sophomores; 300 to 399, courses
especially for juniors; and those from 400 to 499, courses espec-
ially for seniors. Each level of offerings assumes the earlier com-
pletion of necessary prerequisites. The number of hours refers

to the required core program, most of them include three levels
of other courses: those prescribed for the major, directed elec-
tives recommended as immediately related to the major, and free
electives allowed to enable the student to widen his intellectual
interests. Variations of each program are possible, according to
the particular needs of the student and the regulations of each
department. Majors programs are offered in the following:

outset so that he may be aware of departmental and divisional
requirements and allowable substitutions and alternatives. Each
major must complete the core requirements within the scope of
their interpretation by responsible departmental or divisional ad-
visors. In addition, each major must complete those departmental
and divisional requirements as may apply to the specific degree.
