The Government of the University
Board of Founders*

The details of the management of Oglethorpe Uni-
versity are handled by an Executive Committee of
the Board of Directors. The property is legally held
in trust by a Board of Trustees of seven men. The
General Board of Directors meets at least once each
year, at commencement time, on the university campus
near Atlanta, to inspect the institution, to review all
matters of large importance to the University, and to
give directions to the Executive Committee which is
elected by them and from their number, and which at-
tends to the details of management of the institution
between the meetings of the Board of Directors. Each
member of the Board represents a gift of two thousand
dollars or more to the University, or an annual gift of
not less than $100.00.

Thus there is no one associated with the ownership
or control of the institution in an important capacity
who is not making a personal sacrifice in its behalf.

In many cases they represent groups, societies,
churches or families who combined their gifts in the
founding of the University.

Prospective students will not fail to note the quality
of these men, representing the thousands of men and
women whose sacrifices and prayers have consum-
mated this fine purpose. As representatives and gov-
ernors of the institution they will take pleasure in
giving any inquirers information as to the aims and
progress of the University.

14 Oglethorpe Univeksity

Historical Sketch

The historical genesis of Oglethorpe University
takes us back to the middle of the eighteenth century
when, under the leadership of Presbyterian mpn,
Princeton College was founded in New Jersey and rap-
idly became the institution largely patronized by the
young men from Presbyterian families all over the
world. After a while the long distance which must
be traveled by stage or on horseback, suggested the
building of a similar institution under the auspices of
Presbyterianism in the South. The movement began
with the spring meeting of Hopewell Presbjrtery in
the year 1823, and eventuated in the founding of a
manual training school, and this in turn, became Ogle-
thorpe College in 1835 when Midway Hill, in the sub-
urbs of Milledgeville, then the capital of the state
of Georgia, was chosen for the location of the insti-
tution. Old Oglethorpe College was thus the first de-
nominational college or university between the Atlan-
tic and Pacific Oceans south of the Virginia line, and,
of a right, claimed to be the Alma Mater of all that
brilliant company of institutions which were born
after her in this vast empire.

The facilities of the old Oglethorpe were adequate
for the time. The main building was probably the
handsomest college structure in the Southeast when it
was erected, and "contained the finest college chapel
in the United States not excepting Yale, Harvard or
Princeton."

In the faculty of the institution may be found the
names of men who were world famous. Among these
were Joseph LeConte, the great geologist. James
Woodrow, the brilliant and devoted Christian and sci-

Oglethorpe University 15

entist; Samuel K. Talmadge, the eminent administra-
tor and many others. It is, perhaps, the chief glory
of old Oglethorpe that after three years of instruction
she graduated Sidney Lanier of the famous class of
1860 and that he was a tutor to her sons until the
spring of '61 when with the Oglethorpe cadets he
marched away to the wars. Shortly before his death,
Lanier, looking back over his career, remarked to a
friend that the greatest intellectual impulse of his life
had come to him during his college days at Oglethorpe
through the influence of Dr. Woodrow. Her other
eminent alumni include governors, justices, moderators
of the General Assembly, discoverers, inventors and a
host of honest, industrious and superb laborers for
the highest ideals of humanity.

Oglethorpe "died at Gettysburg," for during the
war her sons were soldiers, her endowment was in-
vested in Confederate bonds, and her buildings which
were used for barracks and hospital, were later burn-
ed. An effort was made to revive the institution in
the '70's and to locate it in Atlanta, but the evils of re-
construction days and financial disaster made the ad-
venture impossible, and after a year and a half of
struggle the doors were closed for the second time.

Only twenty-two years have passed since the present
movement to refound the university began and they
have been years of financial disaster and utter tur-
moil, yet the assets and subscription pledges of the in-
stitution have passed the sum of one and a half mil-
lion dollars as the result of unusual and self-sacrific-
ing liberality on the part of over five thousand people.

The comer stone of Oglethorpe University was
laid on January 21, 1915, with her trustful motto en-
graved upon it: "Manu Dei Resurrexit" (By the
Hand of God She Has Risen From the Dead).

16 Oglethorpe University

The Opening, September 20, 1916

Oglethorpe University opened her doors in the au-
tumn of 1916. After 50 years of rest beneath the gray
ashes of fratricidal strife she rose! to breathe the airs
of a new day. Her first building, constructed of gran-
ite trimmed with limestone, covered with variegated
slates and as near fire proof as human skill can make
it, was ready for occupancy in the fall of 1916, when
the first class gathered on her beautiful campus on
Peachtree Road. A faculty equal to that of any cog-
nate institution in the country was formed. The work
of raising funds and new costruction goes steadily on.
All of this has been done in the midst of financial dis-
aster that has darkened the spirit of the whole nation.

The Romance of Her Resurrection

The story of the resurrection of Oglethorpe reads
like a romance. Beginning only twenty-two years ago
with a contribution of $100.00 a year for ten years
from he!r present president, it soon gathered with it
a band of great-hearted Atlanta men who determined
to see that their city had a university, as well as a
band of far-seeing educational leaders, who wished
to erect a certain type of institution in this splendid
metropolis. The story of how dollar was added to
dollar during the campaign of four years; of how no
less than seventy Atlanta men gave each $1,000.00 or
more to the enterprise; of how the story was told in
101 cities and towns all over the South from Gal-
veston, Texas, to Charlottesville, Virginia, and from
Marshall, Missouri, to Bradenton, Florida, each one
of them giving $1,000 or more to the enterprise; the
splendid triumph of the Atlanta campaigns; all this

Oglethorpe University 17

is well known. Since that time the same wonderful
record has been maintained. There are now something
like five thousand men, women and children, all of
whom have contributed or promised from fifty cents
to $1,000. They are the Founders' Club which is
carrying the movement forward so splendidly.

Her Architectural Beauty

An idea of the quality of construction and design of
the institution may be gained from the accompanying
illustrations.

It will be seen that the architects and landscape
artists spared no pains to make it one of the really
beautiful universities in America. The architecture
is Collegiate Gothic; the building material is a beau-
tiful blue granite trimmed with limestone. All the
buildings will be covered with heavy variegated slates.
The interior construction is of steel, concrete, brick
and hollow tile. The first building is the one on the
right of the entrance. The building given by Dr. and
Mrs. Lupton and their son, our beloved benefactors,
is the one with the tower just opposite on the left of
the entrance. Lowry Hall, the gift of Col. and Mrs.
R. J. Lowry stands completed at the end of the main
axis directly in front of the entrance. The total cost
of construction of the buildings mentioned above with
the landscape work required, will be approximately
$4,000,000. The building plan will be followed out
in its entirety.

The Oglethorpe Campus

By the generosity of Mr. William Randolph Hearst,
Oglethorpe is the possessor of one of the finest college

18 Oglethorpe University

campuses in the entire world. In the summer of 1929
Mr. Hearst gave to the University the entire Silver
Lake Estates, four hundred acres of primeval forest
surrounding an eighty acre lake with something like
five miles of graded roads winding through it. As
this property immediately adjoins the two hundred
acres already possessed by the University, the com-
pleted campus consists of a body of six hundred acres
of land in one tract in the immediate vicinity of At-
lanta, on Peachtree Road and on the main line of the
Southern Railroad. This gift of Mr. Hearst provides
for the University ample space for future development
and protects its growth from encroachment by urban
Atlanta whose suburbs are rapidly surrounding the
campus.

Hermance Stadium

During the summer of 1929 the first section of
Hermance Stadium was erected at a cost of something
over $100,000. Like all the other Oglethorpe build-
ings it is constructed of granite, trimmed with carved
limestone. The seats are of reinforced concrete. This
first section which seats about five thousand, com-
prises approximately one-ninth of the total seating
capacity . When completed it will have cost something
like $750,000 and will have a seating capacity of ap-
proximately that of the Roman Colosseum, 45,000. It
is named in honor of Dr. and Mrs. Harry P. Hermance,
Hal Hermance and Miss Helen Hermance, the donors.

Her Spiritual and Intellectual Ideals

But it is not so much the magnificent exterior of
the institution about which the men who are founding

Oglethorpe University 19

Oglethorpe are most concerned, it is the spiritual and
intellectual life of their university. To that end they
have resolved to maintain a faculty and a curricu-
lum that will be of the highest possible quality, their
thought being excellence in every department. They
are taking the superb traditions of the Old Oglethorpe
and adding the best of the present age to them.

Founders' Book

In the Founders' Room at Oglethorpe there will be
a book containing the name of every man, woman and
child who aided in the founding of the University,
arranged alphabetically, by states. That Book will
be accessible to every student and visitor who may
want to know who it was from his or her home that
took part in the doing of this, the greatest deied that
has been attempted for our sons and daughters in
this generation. The Book is not yet complete, be-
cause the work is not yet finished, and each month is
adding many to this roll of honor, whose names will
thus be preserved in the life and archives of Ogle-
thorpe University forever.

Clock and Chimes

In the tower of the building given by Dr. and
Mrs. J. T. Lupton, is installed a clock and chimes,
with three dials, ten bells and night illumination, the
gift of friends of the University. It is interesting to
note that this is the only set of chimes on any college
campus in Georgia. Concerts on the chimes are given
daily and are broadcast over station WATL.

The Faculty of the University

The Board of Directors of Oglethorpe University,
realizing the responsibility upon them of selecting a

20 Oglethorpe University

faculty whose spiritual and intellectual equipment
should be capable of satisfying the tremendous de-
mands of a really great institution of learning, has
spared no effort or pains in securing a body of men
who would not only possess that first requisite of a
teacher, a great soul, but should also have those two
other requisites of almost equal importance: power of
imparting their ideals and knowledge, and intellec-
tual acquirements adequate for their department.
The most important element in education is the creat-
ing in the student of an inteinse yearning for and de-
light in the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, and
the first essential for the creation of such a spirit is
the example set before him by the Faculty. The ob-
ject of an Oglethorpe education is to furnish the stu-
dent with deeper thoughts, finer emotions and nobler
purposes to thei end that he may more clearly under-
stand, more fully enjoy and more excellently behave
in the world. It has been the purpose of the Board
of Directors in making their selection of members of
the faculty to choose them from as many different
sections of America as possible, thus providing a rep-
resentative and cosmopolitan American corps of
teachers.

30 Oglethorpe University

Immediate Purpose and Scope

The purpose of Oglethorpe University is to offer
courses of study leading to the higher academic and
professional degrees, under a Christian environment,
and thus to train young men who wish to become spe-
cialist in professional and business life and teachers
in our high schools and colleges, and to supply the
growing demand for specially equipped men in every
department of human activity.

Students who are looking forward to university
work are invited to correspond with the President in
order that they may prepare themselves for the ad-
vanced courses which are; to be offered.

Adequate library and laboratory facilities are pro-
vided. Free use is made of the city of Atlanta, in
itself a remarkable laboratory of industrial and scien-
tific life, whose museums, libraries, and municipal
plants are at the disposal of our students for observa-
tion, inspection and inveistigation.

The campus consists of approximately six hundred
acres of land including an eighty acre lake which
is situated in the northwestern section of the campus.
It is located on Peachtree Road, and immediately
in front of the entrance is the terminus of the Ogle-
thorpe University street car line, and an attractive
little stone station of the Southern Railway main
line between Atlanta and Washington. The first build-
ing to be located on the campus, the Administration
Building, contains in the basement a dining room; on
the ground floor, chemistry and physics lecture rooms
and laboratories and the Bursar's office and lounging
room for young ladies attending the college; on the

Oglethorpe University 31

second and third floors, the hospital and dormitories.
Lupton Hall contains the library, the President's of-
fice, class rooms, dormitories, an Assembly Hall seat-
ing approximately six hundred, equipped also as a
theatre for the presentation of student dramas, and
in the basement basketball court, swimming pool,
lockers and showers, and quarters for the University
Press. The University Press is equipped with a Bab-
cock optimus press, linotype machine and two job
presses, with a number of type stands and other
printing equipment given by a friend of the Univer-
sity. Lowry Hall houses the Lowry School of Bank-
ing and Commerce, and the Art Studios. It is largely
a replica of old Corpus Christi College, Oxford, the
alma mater of James Edward Oglethorpe. It con-
tains class rooms and dormitories, and will stand as
a perpetual memorial to the generosity of Colonel R.
J. Lowry and Emma Markham Lowry.

34 Oglethorpe University

to enter. Such students may become regular only by
absolving all entrance requirements.

Persons under twenty years of age desiring to pur-
sure special courses not leading to a degree may do so
as unregistered students upon the passage of an ex-
amination or examinations satisfactory to the Dean
of the department in which the work is to be done.

The minimum number of subjects permitted is
twelve clock-hours per week.

LATE REGISTRATION

A charge of $1 a day (up to $5) will be made for
students who register after the time set for registra-
tion at the beginning of any term (not for the sum-
mer session).

Standards For Georgia Colleges*

The following standards have been adopted by the
State Board of Education of Georgia. They are de-
signed to serve two purposes:

(a) A basis of granting charters to new or pro-
posed higher educational institutions under the pro-
visions of Section 14 of the Georgia Code.**

(b) A basis for preparing an approved list of teach-
er training institutions for the State of Georgia.

It is not proposed that these standards should op-

* These standards have been adopted by Oglethorpe Univer-
sity and are effective as of September 23, 1931,

*_* Section 14. No charter giving the right to confer degrees
or issue diplomas shall be granted to any proposed institution
of learning within the state of Georgia until the proper show-
ing has been made to the State Board of Education that the
proposed University, College, Normal, or Pi-ofessional school
shall give evidence of its ability to meet the standard require-
ments set up by the State Board of Education.

Oglethorpe University 35

erate to make it impossible for a worthy new enter-
prise to be begun, nor for a worthy institution now
in operation to be denied a fair opportunity for de-
velopment.

It is, therefore, agreed that:

(a) In the case of proposed new institutions of
higher learning, if the Board of Education is satisfied
that such institution has a reasonable possibility of
meeting these standards within three years a provis-
ional charter for three years may be granted, such
charter to be made permanent if and when such in-
stitution shall have met the conditions of these
standards.

(b) In the case of institutions now in operation,
the application of these standards shall not go into
effect until after the expiration of three years from
the date of the adoption of these standards.

Standards for Colleges

1. Definition:

A standard college, university, or technological in-
stitution designated as "college" in this statement
of standards is an institution:

(a) Which is legally authorized to give non-profes-
sional Bachelor's degrees;

(b) Which is organized definitely on the basis of
the completion of a standard secondary school
curriculum ;

(c) Which organizes its curricula in such a way
that the early years are a continuation of, and
supplement the work of the secondary school
and at least the last two years are shaped more
or less distinctly in the direction of special,

professional, or graduate instruction;

36 Oglethorpe University

(d) Which is separate and distinct, both in faculty
and operation, from any high school.

2. Entrance or Admission:

A college shall demand for admission of candidates
for degrees the satisfactory completion of a four year
course (15 units from a four year high school or
twelve units from a three year senior high school) in
a secondary school approved by a recognized accred-
iting agency or the equivalent of such a course, as
shown by examination. The major portion of the sec-
ondary school course accepted for admission should
be definitely correlated with the curriculum to which
the student is admitted.

Persons over 21 years of age, who do not meet re-
quirements for admission, may be admitted to reg-
ular college courses if the authorities of the college
are satisfied that such persons can carry the courses
satisfactorily. These shall be classified as special
students and shall not be admitted to candidacy for
bachelor's degrees until all entrance requirements
have been satisfied.

3. Graduation:

A college shall require for graduation the comple-
tion of a minimum quantitative requirement of 120
semester hours of credit (or the equivalent in term
hours, quarter hours, points, majors, or courses) with
further qualitative requirements adapted by each in-
stitution to its conditions.

A semester hour is defined as a credit for work in
a class which meets for at least one sixty-minute per-
iod (including ten minutes for change of classes)
weekly for lecture, recitation, or test for a semester

Oglethorpe University 37

of eighteen weeks (including not over two weeks for
all holidays and vacations). Two hours of laboratory
work shall count as the equivalent of one hour of
lecture, recitation, or test.

4. Degrees:

Small institutions should confine themselves to one
or two baccalaureate degrees. When more than one
baccalaureate degree is offered, all shall be equal in
requirements for admission and graduation. Insti-
tutions of limited resources and inadequate facilities
for graduate work should confine themselves to strict-
ly undergraduate courses.

5. Permanent Records:

A system of permanent records showing clearly all
credits (including entrance records) of each student
shall be carefully kept. The original credentials filed
from other institutions shall be retained. As far
as possible, records of graduates should be kept.
6- Size of Faculty and Number of Departments:

A college of arts and sciences of approximately 100
students should maintain at least eight separate de-
partments with at least one professor in each devot-
ing his whole time to that department. The size of
the faculty should bear a definite relation to the type
of the institution, the number of students, and the
number of courses offered. With the growth of the
student body, the number of full-time teachers should
be correspondingly increased. The development of
varied curricula should involve the addition of other
heads of departments.
7. Training of Faculty:

Faculty members of professional rank shall have
not less than one full year of graduate work, major-

38 Oglethorpe University

ing in the subject taught, in addition to a bachelor's
degree from a fully accredited college, and should
have two years of training in an approved graduate
school.

The training of the head of each department shall
be that represented by two full years of graduate
work or its equivalent.

8. Faculty Load:

The number of hours of class room work given by
each teacher will vary in different departments. To
determine this, the amount of preparation required
for the class and the amount of time needed for study
to keep abreast of the subject, together with the
number of students, must be taken into account.
Teaching schedules, including classes for part-time
students, exceeding 18 recitation hours or their equiv-
alent per week per instructor, will be interpreted as
endangering educational efficiency. Sixteen hours is
the recommended maximum load.

9. Size of Classes:

Classes (exclusive of lectures) of more than thirty
students should be interpreted as endangering educa-
tional efficiency.

10. Financial Support:

The minimum annual operating income for an ac-
credited college, exclusive of payment of interest, an-
nuities, etc., should be $30,000, of which not less than
$15,000 should be derived from stable sources, other
than students, such as permanent endowment, public
funds or church support. Increase in faculty, stu-
dent body and scope of instruction should be accom-
panied by a corresponding increase of income from

Oglethorpf University 39

such stable sources. The financial status of each col-
lege should be judged in relation to its educational
program.

A college that does not have such support from en-
dowment, church, state or public sources must show,
for a period of three consecutive years immediately
preceding its application for accrediting, that its
charges and expenditures are such as to show a min-
imum average annual net surplus of not less than
$15,000 from non-educational services, such as board,
room rents, etc., which may be used to supplement
tuition fees.

11. Library*

A college should have a live, well-distributed, ade-
quately housed library of at least 8,000 volumes, ex-
clusive of public documents, bearing specifically upon
the subjects taught, administered by a full-time pro-
fessionally trained librarian, and with a definite an-
nual appropriation for the purchase of new books.

12. Laboratories:

The laboratory equipment shall be adequate for all
the experiments called for by the courses offered in
the sciences, and these facilities shall be kept up by
means of an annual appropriation in keeping with the
curriculum.

13. General Equipment and Buildings:

The location and construction of the buildings, the
lighting, heating and ventilation of the rooms, the
nature of the laboratories, corridors, closets, water
supply, school furniture, apparatus, and methods of
cleaning shall be such as to insure hygienic conditions
for both students and teachers.

40 Oglethorpe University

14. Proportion of Students Candidates for Degrees:

No institution shall be admitted to the accredited
list, or continued more than one year on such list, un-
less it has a college registration of at least 100 reg-
ular students. A notably small proportion of college
students registered in the third and fourth years will
constitute ground for dropping an institution from
the accredited list.

At least 75 per cent of the students in a college
should be pursuing courses leading to baccalaureate
degrees; provided, however, that this shall not apply
to students enrolled in extension, correspondence or
other similar departments, not in regular course for
a degree, in an institution which otherwise meets
these standards.

15. Character of the Curriculum:

The character of the curriculum, the standards for
regular degrees, the conservatism in granting honor-
ary degres, provision in the curriculum for breadth
of study and for concentration, soundness of scholar-
ship, the practice of scientific spirit including freedom
of investigation and teaching, loyalty to facts, and en-
couragement of efficiency, initiative and originality
in investigation and teaching, the tone of the institu-
tion, including the existence and culture of good mor-
als and ideals, and satisfaction and enthusiasm among
students and staff shall be factors in determining its
standing.

16. Extra-Curricular Activities:

The proper administration of athletics, student pub-
lications, student organizations, and all extra-curricu-
lar activities, is one of the fundamental tests of a

Oglethorpe University 41

standard college and, therefore, should be considered
in classification.

17. Professional and Technical Departments:

When the institution has, in addition to the college
of arts and sciences, professional or technical depart-
ments, the colleges of arts and sciences shall not be ac-
cepted for the approved list of the State Department
of Education unless the professional or technical de-
partments are of approved grade, national standards
being used when available.

18. Inspection and Reports:

Filing of Blank No institution shall be placed on
the approved list unless a regular information blank
has been filed with the State Department of Educa-
tion. The blank shall be filed again for each of the
three years after the college has been approved, and
triennially thereafter, but the Department may for
due cause call upon any member to file a new report
at any time. Failure to file the blank as required
shall be cause for dropping an institution.

Inspection No college will be placed on the ap-
proved list until it has been inspected and reported
upon by the agent or agents regularly appointed by
the State Department of Education. All colleges ac-
credited by the Department shall be open to inspec-
tion at any time.

Oglethorpe University was the first educational in-
stitution in Georgia to be inspected and fully accred-
ited by the State Board of Education after the adop-
tion of the above Standards, following the approval
of them by all the educational institutions in the com-
monwealth.

42 Oglethorpe University

Courses of Instruction and
Requirements For Degrees

In the session of 1936-37 Oglethorpe University will
offer courses in the undergraduate classes of eight
schools leading to the customary academic degrees.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in Liberal
Arts will be conferred upon those students satisfac-
torily completing a four years' course as outlined be-
loW, based largely on the study of the languages. The
degree of Bachelor of Arts in Science will be conferred
upon those students who satisfactorily complete a
four years' course largely in scientific studies. The
degree of Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Jour-
nalism will be given to those students who complete a
course including work in languages, literature and
journalism. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Com-
merce will be conferred upon those students who sat-
isfactorily complete a full four years' course in studies
relating particularly to business administration. The
degree of Bachelor of Arts in Education will be con-
ferred upon those students who complete the studies
in the School of Education. The degree of Bachelor
of Arts in Secretarial Preparation will be conferred
upon those students who complete the studies in that
School.

The degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Fine Arts
will be given to those students who complete the re-
quirements in the School of Fine Arts. A diploma,
but not a degree, is given to students completing a
two-year course in Art.

The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Physical Edu-
cation will be given to those students specializing in
that department.

Oglethorpe University 43

By a careful study of the courses outlined below,
the student will be easily able to make the choice most
suitable to his tastes and probable future life.

In general, it may be suggested that students pre-
paring to enter such professions as the ministry or
law, will choose the A.B. course in Liberal Arts;
those looking forward to medicine, dentistry and
other scientific work, the A.B. course in Science;
those expecting to enter the literary and journalistic
field, the A.B. course in Literature, and those who
intend to spend their lives in the business world, the
A.B. course in Commerce, or the A.B. course in Sec-
retarial Preparation; those who expect to teach, the
A.B, course in Education.

While each of these courses is so shaped as to in-
fluence the student towards a certain end, colored
largely by the type of studies, yet each course will
be found to include such subjects of general culture
as are necessary to the making of a life as distin-
guished from a living.

Graduates of standard normal schools or junior col-
leges are admitted to the junior class.

Examinations, Credits, Graduation

Effective with the class entering September, 1931,
the new Oglethorpe plan of credits and examinations
went into effect. The traditional four year course of
study is now divided into two groups. The first two
years of work are designated as the College Division,
and the remaining two years of work as the Uni-
versity Division. The teaching remains as heretofore
with similar schedules, with the customary lectures,
laboratory work, quizzes and examinations. But the
marks attained at the close of the tel*m are not en-

44 Oglethorpe University

tered as credits for graduation, only as an indica-
tion to the student and the instructor of the character
of the work being done. When the student appears
to have satisfactorily completed two years of work he
will be recommended by the Dean of his department
to the Faculty for a final, comprehensive examina-
tion, both written and oral, on all subjects taken.
Upon the satisfactory completion of this test he will
receive the title of Associate in Arts and a certificate
stating that he has completed the College Division of
studies and may be admitted to the University Divis-
ion. The same plan will be followed in the Univer-
sity Division. Upon completion of a satisfactory com-
prehensive examination the degree and diploma will
be conferred. It is believed that the new system will
incite the student to select and coordinate his course
of study as a whole, and to master it. The inferior
student will stand small chance of passing the com-
prehensive examinations. In fact, he will not even
be recommended by his Dean for the examination, but
will be asked to do additional and better work to qual-
ify himself for graduation. Under the new plan cheat-
ing, cramming, and coasting will be less of a temp-
tation, as ill gotten marks will avail nothing on the
final comprehensive examination. The new plan will
be an incentive to mastery and excellence.

All transfer credits in order to be acceptable to
Oglethorpe University must come from standard in-
stitutions of at least junior college or normal grade.
Such students must have at least 18 hour credits.

In determining the rating of both high schools and
colleges for any year that the university is governed
by the rulings of the Department of Education of the
State of Georgia.

Oglethorpe University 45

Transfer credits are allowed only for courses which
parallel those given at Oglethorpe.

Definite transcripts are required for admission
both to the graduate and under-graduate divisions.

The Atlanta School System has asked that teachers
take work only Friday and Saturday, not definitely
limiting the amount of credit. Fifteen to eighteen
college hours is considered a reasonable amount of
work for a pupil giving all his time to instruction.
Therefore, as teachers are supposed to give at least
half of their time to their teaching and to its prepar-
ation, we do not feel that any teacher in service
should try to carry more than seven and a half or
nine college hours' work a year as a maximum, not
including summer school work. When it is under-
stood that this means seven and a half to nine hours
of class room work a week, not to mention the prep-
aration involved, it will be seen that this is reason-
able.

All candidates for all degrees are required, in ad-
dition to passing such examinations, quizzes, tests,
etc., as may be prescribed by the professors in charge
of the courses taken, to stand a final, comprehensive
written examination, covering the last two years of
their course. If and when these examinations have
been successfully passed the candidate is required to
stand an oral examination of the same general com-
prehensive nature before a committee of the faculty
and in the case of candidates for the Master's degree,
to submit a thesis of a nature satisfactory to a spec-
ial committee of the Faculty, appointed to review
same.

University Expenses

Tuition

Effective for all students entering Oglethorpe on
and after September 1931, the tuition fees charged by
the University are the same in all departments and in
all schools, and are based upon the actual amount of
instruction given to the student as measured by the
time devoted thereto by the instructors. The figure
set is $5.00 per term for each clock hour of instruc-
tion per week. The courses offered by the University
usually run two, three, or four clock hours per week.
The charge per term (approximately three months)
for each one hour per week course (usually called a
minor) is $5.00. The charge per term for each two
hour per week course is $10.00. The charge for each
three hour per week course for one term is $15.00. The
charge per term for each four hour per week course
is $20.00, and the charge per term for each seven
hour per week course is $35.00; other courses in ex-
act proportion, except in the Art Department- The
charges for work done in the laboratories are one-half
of the above rates. Inasmuch as a complete college
and university course of four years, more or less, calls
for 66 year hours of instruction, equal to 66 minors,
the total charge for the four years, more or less, of
instruction, including tuition, laboratory and other
college fees, is approximately $247.50 per year. The
tuition charge includes tickets to all athletic games
played on the campus and the annual performance
of the Oglethorpe Players Club. All tuition charges
are payable quarterly in advance and no rebates are
given.

48 Oglethorpe University

Board and Room Rent

The dormitory facilities of Oglethorpe University-
are among the safest and most comfortable of those
of cognate institutions in the South. All permanent
buildings of the University will be like those now
finished, which are believed to be entirely fireproof,
being constructed of steel, concrete, and granite
with partitions of brick and hollow tile.

The rates named above are based upon two grades
of rooms. The first of these comprises the entire
third floor of the Administration Building, the third
floor of Lupton Hall, and the second and third floors
of Lowry Hall, divided into individual rooms, with
general toilet and bath on the same floor. Each room
contains a lavatory furnishing hot and cold water.
The second grade is that of the second floor of the
Administration building, and is composed of suites
of rooms, each suite containing a bedroom, bath, and
study. The price charged includes first class board,
steam heat and electric lights, water and janitor's
service; all rooms are furnished adequately and sub-
stantially. Every room in the dormitory contains
ample closet space. The rooms are large, airy, safe
and comfortable.

The furniture is of substantial quality and is ap-
proximately the same for all rooms, including chiffon-
ier, study-table, chairs, single beds, springs and mat-
tresses. Room linen, pillows and bed clothing are
furnished by the student. Application for rooms
should be made as early as possible. For reservation
of room inclose $5.00 reservation fee (non-returnable)
to be credited on first payment for room rent.

All students rooming in the dormitories are required
also to board at the college cafeteria and any student

Oglethorpe University 49

not rooming on the college campus may take his or her
meals at the cafeteria. Students employed by the
University must board and room on the campus.

The charge for board and room rent per tem is as
follows:

Room rent: Administration Building, third floor,
Lupton Hall, third floor, and Lowry Hall, second and
third floors (two or more to the room) $26.00 per
term. Administration Building, second floor $46.00
per term (two or more to the room). The charge for
board is $60.00 for the Autumn term, and $50-00 for
the Spring and Winter terms. This is furnished
in the form of meal tickets. Additional tickets may
be purchased by the student if desired. No rebate
is given on unused meal tickets, and no transfer of
use of meal tickets from one term to another is allow-
ed. All charges are payable in advance by the term,
of approximately eleven weeks as per college calendar,
and no rebate is allowed for any reason. The particu-
lar attention of the student is called to the fact that
the issuance of these meal tickets is for their con-
venience, solely; that they are good only for meals
taken during the term for which they are issued and
that the charge for them is $60.00 for the Autumn
term, and $50.00 for the Spring and Winter terms,
and is not subject to rebate of any kind on account
of failure of students to use the tickets which are fur-
nished them.

Expenses: The University reserves the right to
raise or lower any and all charges, to discontinue any
and all discounts and scholarships, to cancel any and
all contracts for self-help work and to lower or raise
cafeteria prices at will, as conditions may require.

50 Oglethorpe University

All charges are based upon and payable by the term,
in advance, not by the month or year. The lengths of
terms are specified in the college calendar. When
payments are permitted under special conditions the
obligation of the student to meet deferred payments
is not thereby impaired. Such special privileges of
payment will be withdrawn in all cases where the stu-
dent fails to make settlement without previous billing
or notice. A penalty of $5.00 is assessed on all stu-
dents attending classes or any examination without
having settled their account in advance and $1 per day
of absence (maximum five dollars) for delayed regis-
tration of Fall, Winter and Spring terms. If a stu-
dent attends a single class, or occupies a dormitory
room for a single night or purchases a cafeteria ticket,
the contract for that term is thus made binding and no
rebate of any kind will be allowed on board (cafeteria
meal tickets), room rent, tuition or college fees for
that term.

A special "depression cash discount" of twenty-five
per cent will be granted on tuition and room rent to
those students rooming on the campus, who hold no
self-help position and receive no aid from the Uni-
versity loans or scholarship funds. The University
reserves the right to lower and raise any and all
charges if, when and as economic conditions may re-
quire.

The University discourages the occupation of one
room by more than two students and no reduction in
room rent is permitted on that account except in the
case of very large rooms furnished barracks style.

The University cafeteria furnishes a liberal assort-
ment of food at moderate prices, varying with the
Atlanta market.

Oglethorpe University 51

Student Activities Fee

The expenses at Oglethorpe University are made as
low as the quality of the instruction, of rooming ac-
comodations and of table fare will permit. No fees
such as matriculation, library, hospital, contingent,
athletics, etc. are charged. The only exception to
this rule is a fee of $7.50 per term (on which no dis-
count is allowed to anyone) which is used to defray
various expenses connected with student activities
such as: equipment and expenses of intra-mural
games and teams, and of inter-collegiate football,
baseball and basketball teams; expenses of debating
teams; expenses of dramatic club; expenses of glee
club, band and orchestra; and a subscription to the
Stormy Petrel and Yamacraw, if and when published
by the University Press. This fee also provides
each student with a ticket to all inter-collegiate games
played by Oglethorpe teams in Atlanta and provides
for his participation without other charge in such
intra-mural sports as the program offers.

Caution Deposit

A deposit of $5.00 is required of all boarding stu-
dents upon registration, which will be refunded after
the close of the session in the following June, less a
proportionate amount deducted for such damages to
buildings and equipment and such losses or removal
of equipment as, is the opinion of the officers of the
college, has been done by the students. No discount
is allowed, either on the caution deposit or the athletic
fee.

52 Oglethorpe University

Infirmary

The University maintains at all times an excellent
infirmary, with a nurse in attendance, for the prompt
treatments of accidents and of such cases of sickness
as may occur. By this means prolonged and serious
illness can often be prevented. There is a University
physician who can be secured on short notice when his
services are needed. Students whose medical needs
exceed the facilities of the infirmary find every re-
quirement satisfied by the hospitals of the city.

The University makes no charge to the students
for infirmary service, which includes also the attend-
ance of the college physician in the infirmary. In
case of special illness requiring operations or the sei>
vices of specialists while the University frequently
is able to secure reduced rates for students, yet we
assume no responsibility beyond such services as our
college physician and college infirmary are able to
render. This includes accidents and injuries arising
from perticipation in inter-collegiate sports, in which
case a special consideration is offered as specified else-
where.

Directions to New Students

students coming to Oglethorpe University from a
distance should remember that Oglethorpe University
has its own station on the main line of the Southern
railway between Atlanta and Washington. Tickets
may be purchased and baggag* checked to Oglethorpe
University, Georgia, the station being immediately in
front of the campus. Students coming to Atlanta
over other lines may either re-check their baggage to
the University station, or may have it delivered at a

Oglethorpe University 53

special rate by the Atlanta Baggage and Cab Co- In
using the latter method mention should always be
made of the special students' rate at the time the
order is given.

Summer Session

The summer term of Oglethorpe University meets
the requirements of regular students who desire to
speed up their courses or to make up work that is un-
satisfactory. It also serves a large number or teach-
ers working toward degrees.

All summer courses are credited toward the attain-
ment of a degree, and afford a convenient way to
push up by one year the date of graduation. Local
extension students by availing themselves of the op-
portunities of the Summer Session are able to do an
amount of work, in twelve calendar months, equal to
that done in an academic year of nine months by a
full-time campus student.

Graduate School

It is the purpose of Oglethorpe University to de-
velop a thoroughly excellent Graduate School, offer-
ing courses in all departments leading to the Master's
degree. In supplying this need, which has for a long
while been acutely felt in the South, the management
of the University will be content only with the very
highest grades of work and facilities.

Courses leading to the Master's degree in certain
departments will be found outlined elsewhere in this
catalogue, under the appropriate department heading.
This degree is based upon that of Bachelor of Arts
of Oglethorpe University or of some other approved

54 Oglethorpe University

institution. The candidate must carry an aggregate
of fifteen hours of graduate work, with at least two
Professors; all this work must be done with Ogle-
thorpe. In addition a thesis is required. But the
degree is not guaranteed at the end of a fixed period
of time. A certain amount of work must be accom-
plished, and the quality of it must be such as to satis-
fy the Professors concerned and the whole Faculty.
In this connection the prospective student will be
interested in learning that all Professors chosen as
the heads of departments in Oglethorpe University
must have attained the highest academic degree offer-
ed that department. This fact is mentioned in order
to indicate the earnest determination of the Board
of Directors of the University that her faculty shall
include only men of the highest intellectual attain-
ment as well as men of great teaching power and
strong personality.

Students entering the graduate school in selecting
their major courses must present not less than two
years (six year hours) of under-graduate work in
the same or closely related subjects evidenced by of-
ficial transcripts from standard institutions recogniz-
ed as such by the Department of Education of the
State of Georgia. In addition to this the student must
have had one year (three year hours) of work in any
subject selected as a minor.

A class that meets once a week during the session
of nine months, carries a credit of one hour (one year
hour). A class that meets three times a week (three
clock hours for nine months) carries a credit of one
hour per term, three hours per year.

A minimum of fifteen college hours or one year
of work and a minimum of one year (nine months)

Oglethorpe University 55

of residence is required for the Master's degree. A
minimum of one year or approximately nine months'
residence is required for the Bachelor's degree. Of
the fifteen hours required for the Master's degree not
less than nine shall be devoted to the major subject
and the other six or more selected by the advice and
counsel of the Dean of the Department in which the
student is working. In addition a satisfactory thesis
must be presented to the Faculty Committee upon a
subject approved by them and filed with the Committee
not less than ten days before the date of graduation.

The President of the University will be pleased to
answer any inquiries as to graduate courses to be
offered.

CONDITIONS FOR CONTINUED ATTENDANCE

It being the purpose of the University to offer its
services only to those students who by their applica-
tion and conduct show their appreciation of their op-
portunities and also to protect its patrons from the de-
moralizing influences of indifferent and undesirable
students, the University will at its own discretion
and without further explanation, exercise the right
to decline re-registration at the beginning of any
term to those students who, in the opinion of the ap-
pointed officials are not making satisfactory campus
citizens.

In pursuance of this purpose, a complete list of the
student body is presented at the close of each term
to the dean of the University, to the dean of women,
to the librarian, to the bursar, matron, cashier, foot-
ball coach, superintendent, ragistrar and to the presi-
dent of the student body with directions that each of
them should canvass the list and set a mark opposite

56 Oglethorpe University

the name of any student who, in their opinion, has de-
finitely failed in any of the following points :

1 Continued failure to attend classes, including
the Tuesday assembly.

2 Continued failure in their classroom work and
inattention and misbehavior in the classrooms and
at assembly exercises.

3 Willful destruction of or damage to University
property.

4 Disloyalty to the University and discourtesy to
any of the faculty or officials.

5 Evident dissatisfaction with rules and regula-
tions or discontent with facilities offered

6 Ungentlemanly or unladylike behavior, includ-
ing cheating, stealing and drunkenness or continual
breach of good manners.

Should any student be marked adversely by as many
as four of the persons voting, he or she will not be re-
registered nor accepted as a student at a subsequent
term, this with no implication of expulsion but to
meet the standards adopted for our students.

The President of the University is directed to super-
vise the balloting and and to warn all those taking
part in it to guard their votes against the influence of
personal prejudice. Only the best interests of the
students and the good of the institution are to be con-
sidered.

The appointed officials of the institution reserve
the right to suspend or expel any student whose con-
duct or lack of proper application to his studies may, in
the opinion of said officials, warrant the suspension
or expulsion. All contracts and agreements made
with the students by the University are subject to the
above conditions for continued attendance.

Oglethorpe University 67

School of Literature and Journalism

Sterling Lanier, Acting Dean ..

Leading to the degree of bachelor of arts in general
literary culture, professional, literary and newspaper
practice, and preparation for the study of law in law
schools that require literary prerequisites. No Latin
is required for entrance. Literary students desire an
increased appreciation of literature, but they also
wish the command of good usable English for every-
day use. For either, good habits in the use of lan-
guage are essential, and are a prime consideration in
the department.

The work in English in the college division is de-
signed to give students a mastery of their own tongue
for speaking and writing, and to familiarize them
with the best English literature. The elective courses,
given mainly for students in the university division,
provide intensive study in special fields. The sum-
mer courses, though not identical with the winter
courses, are planned along similar lines. This will
enable a student to complete a portion of his require-
ments for a degree in the summer.

For graduate students work is offered leading to
the degree of A.M. See page 69.

English

English 111-2-3. Composition. Practice in speak-
ing and writing, with collateral study of masterpieces
of modem prose. The chief object of the course is to
teach the student to arrange his thoughts clearly and
present them with force. He is also encouraged to
enlarge his vocabulary and his stock of ideas by the
reading of good essays. Three hours-

68 Oglethorpe University

English 141-2-3. English Bible. Old Testament.

English 151-2-3. English Bible. New Testament.

The study will include the mastery of the history
contained in the Bible, an analysis of each book, and
such other matters as are required for the proper un-
derstanding of the work. It will be treated not from
a sectarian point of view, or as mere history or liter-
ature. The aim will be to impart such a knowledge
of the subject as every intelligent man should possess,
enabling him to read his Bible with pleasure and
profit.

The effort will be made to give the students the
proper defense of seeming difficulties in the Bible,
both for their own benefit, and they may be able to
meet the objections of unbelievers.

English 161-2-3. The first two terms will be de-
voted to the study of Mythology, that readers of Eng-
lish Literature may be able to understand allusions
to classical stories.

The second part of this course is designed to show
the origin of English words derived from Greek and
Latin, especially scientific terms. Students looking
forward to medicine will find this course particularly
helpful. No knowledge of either language is required
for entrance. Elective. Two hours-
English 311-2. The Writing of News. A course for
the best English and American poetry and prose, with
special attention to style, philosophic content and the
historical development of literature. The course is
designed to complete the student's general study of
literature, and at the same time introduce him to
the specialized courses which follow. Three hours.
Prerequisite: English 111-2-3.

Supplementary courses in other departments are also
required of the candidate.

Library Economy

Library Econamy 211-2-3. The class in Library
Economy meets three times a week. All students
who have completed three terms of English 111-2-3
are eligible. This course is designed to instruct the
student in the elements of the decimal classification
and the use of the card catalogue, and to make him
familiar with the best known reference books on
every subject. During the third term a short course
in filing will be given particularly for the benefit of
students in Secretarial Preparation. Three hours.

Orthography and Typography

Students employed by the University Press as type-
setters, pressmen, linotype operators, etc., and who
work a total of not less than 750 hours per academic
year (September-May) may, upon approval of Mr.
Head, be given academic credit of one year-hour in
addition to the financial credit received by them as
payment for their services. Personal laboratory in-
struction is given students in orthography and to a
limited extent in practical composition and the graph-
ic arts in connection with their daily work. All stu-
dents desiring this credit must be recommended in
writing to the Registrar by Mr. Head and approved
by Mr. Lanier for their work in English.

Sudents who are contemplating the profession of
medicine or dentistry and who do not desire to study
for an academic degree, are allowed to take such work
as will prepare them for entrance into professional
schools. In addition to the required high school units

82 Oglethorpe University

for college entrance, professional students mjust com- j|
plete one or more years of college work, according to
the requirements of the institution that they are plan-
ning to enter. The attention of the prospective stu-
dent, however, should be called to the fact that each
year finds it more necessary for the professional man
to have a thorough foundation for his professional
studies, and the professional schools are becoming
more strict in their requirements for entrance. We
strongly advise our students of medicine to have their
college diploma safely in hand before they begin their
professional studies. The course which we recom-
mend for them is that leading to the Bachelor of Arts
in Science, outlined on page 83. J

The Lowry School of Banking and
Accounting

Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.)
in Commerce

Mark Burrows, Dean

The aim of all instruction in the Lowry School of
Banking and Commerce is to furnish the general basis
of business facts, standards and theory which the be-
ginner finds it difficult or impossible to acquire in
his early business experience. It avoids any pretense
of covering fully the practical details and routine and
the special technique of the particular business or in-
dustry which he will enter.

The Lowry School offers two regular courses of
study, the General Business Course and the Account-
ing course. The aim is to concentrate upon the fun-
damentals of business, and with this in view every
student is required to obtain a thorough knowledge
of the basic subjects including accounting, finance,
economics, and business law.

Those intending to teach commerce subjects in pub-
lic high schools should take a sufficient number of
electives in the field of Education to qualify them leg-
ally for the Professional Teacher's Certificate.

be made in black and white and in color. One year
hour to six hours each term.

106 Oglethorpe University

Art: Mural Painting. All fourth year students
will be assigned composition and execution of a mu-
ral painting in tempera or oils. One to six hours
each term.

Art: Landscape Painting. Pictorial work in old
color by out-of-doors classes. One to six hours each
term.

Art: Portrait Painting. A detailed study of the
head and careful delineation of the features, charac-
ter and expression. Studies done in oil. One to six
hours each term.

Art: Sculpture. Architectural figure and orna-
ment modeling, bust and figure study. This course
also includes instruction in armature construction and
the casting of figures in plaster.

Such of these courses as are demanded will be giv-
en, but not all in any one year.

Etiquette. The course in Etiquette is designed to
provide a thorough grounding in good manners for
young men and women of college age. Many, even
with good home background, discover that they have
no idea just what is expected of them in certain situ-
ations, and feel ashamed to ask. Still more are un-
conscious of the fact that they are doing the wrong
things and exposing themselves to criticism whenever
they do. Accordingly, it is an important and prac-
tical part of education to know what the rules are.
Emphasis is placed on the fundamental principle of
courtesy upon which rests the great bulk of what may
be called good usage in manners. Here at Oglethorpe
the university motto is particularly appropriate
"Good minds, good morals, good manners." Elective.
One hour a week.

School of Physical Education

Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in
Physical Education

Donald Harper Overton, Dean

Its purpose is two-fold: To train, protect and de-
velop the bodies of all the students of the University,
and to offer a special training, equipping them for
positions as Physical Directors in other schools, col-
leges and universities and in Y. M. C. A.'s and the
Army.

For the special preparation of students for positions
as physical directors and coaches in high schools,
prep schools and universities, a regular curriculum
has been arranged offering instruction in certain sub-
jects, the completion of which will lead to a degree
of Bachelor of Arts in Physical Education.

Department of Science

The work of this Department is designed especial-
ly for students of Physical Education. The courses
are planned to awaken in the student an interest that
shall be more compelling than that of a prescribed
course. To this end instruction is based in so far
as possible on direct observations made in demonstra-
tion. Each organ is studied with reference to its
development, anatomy and physiology. Bones, mus-
cles, viscera, etc., have meaning when introduced in
the light of their development. The facts observed
are discussed in lectures and quizzes. Free use is
made of charts, models, anatomical preparations and
miicroscopic slides. Weekly quizzes are supplemented
by written tests given upon the completion of some
general division of the subject.

Intramural Athletics

In order to extend the benefits of organized ath-
letic competition to all students of Oglethorpe Uni-
versity, instead of only to those who take part in
intercollegiate competition, the Department of Physi-
cal Education sponsors the program of Intramural
Athletics.

The purpose of the intramural departmient is to en-
courage every student to participate in some or all
intramural sports, to provide facilities for this par-
ticipation, to organize and promote intramural com-
petition, and to stand for fair play and true sports-
manship.

This program includes competitive sports for every
student on the campus. Students thus benefit from

Oglethorpe University

109

the wholesome effect of organized sports, and from
the physical development which naturally follows.

Intramural competitors, strangers at first but later
friends, learn courage, determination, and self con-
trol. Qualities of loyalty, self-sacrifice and team play
are also thoroughly ingrained in each individual
through this program.

The fact that the intramural program provides con-
tinuous competition in some sport throughout the
school year assures each participating student of
physical exercise every day of the school year.

Scholarships for Athletics

We are constantly receiving inquiries from pros-
pective students concerning "athletic scholarships."
The only scholarships offered by the University are
given as rewards for exceptional high school and col-
lege attainment. The only v^ay in which a football
or baseball player can receive aid at Oglethorpe is
in the same way that other students are aided, by
such self-help jobs as it may be possible for them to
fill consistent with their week-end absences. These
positions pay from twenty to forty cents per hour
and if occupied industriously and efficiently will cov-
er the student's college expenses in large part. The
university must necessarily assign self-help students
taking part in inter-collegiate athletics to such self-
help positions as their engagements may permit them
to hold.

Our endeavor and policy is to treat all students
exactly alike, neither favoring nor discriminating
against a boy who happens to be a fine football play-
er.

Rules for Eligibility of Players in Inter-Collegiate
iSports at Oglethorpe University

1. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports
must be fully registered and qualified under the en-
trance requirements of the University as published
in the catalogue.

2. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports
must carry at least twelve hours (24 semester hours)
of standard college work.

3. All students engaging in varsity inter-collegiate
sports must have passed not less than twelve hours

Oglethorpe University 111

of work during the preceding year, or under the new
system of Education must have tentatively passed
said amount by tentative figures furnished the Regis-
trar by the faculty.

4. No student at Oglethorpe University shall be
shown any preferences financially or academically be-
cause of engaging in inter-collegiate athletics, but the
fact that the student engages in inter-collegiate sports
shall not prejudice his selection in self-help positions
open to all members of the student body.

5. Oglethorpe University will not, under any cir-
cumstances, perm,it the payment of any moneys for
the services of athletes, either by alumni, friends, or
by the college itself.

6. The university assumes no responsibility for in-
juries to students who engage in inter-collegiate ath-
letics, but in lieu thereof will remit to those students
who make the varsity or the first year squad a sum
equivalent to their room rent, which sum is remitted
for the purpose of paying hospital, doctor, dentist
bills, etc., in case of injuries or treatments made nec-
essary by their participation in any game and per-
sonal assumption of the risks thereby involved.

Extension Division

H. J. Gaertner, Dean

The work is largely planned for those seeking grad-
uation in the Junior College Division, or for those
working for Bachelor's or Master's Degrees. Accord-
ingly, Oglethorpe will date the educational history of
each student and plan the work necessary for gradua-
tion.

In planning such work we see that certain definite
studies must enter the curriculum of each student.
For the Bachelor's degree, the student must have ful-
filled the following requirements: Science, 8 year
hours; Foreign Language, 5 or 6 year hours; Educa-
tion, 9 year hours; English, 6 year hours; History 3
year hours. One of the courses in English is a foun-
dation study of English speech, grammar and writ-
ing.

During recent years all Colleges have been working
toward a better organized curriculum. It is this ten-
dency that demands the above definite requirements.
There is required a total of 66 year hours of accept-
able credits. A minimum of fifteen year hours must
be taken in Oglethorpe University.

The Master's degree is based on the Bachelor's de-
gree. The minimum requirement for the Master's is
fifteen year hours. All of these must be taken from
Oglethorpe University except in some instances where
city administrations require 5 or 6 hours in the spe-
cific field in which the teacher is employed. This ap-
plies especially to certain vocational fields in Manual
Arts or subjects not offered by Oglethorpe Univer-
sity.

A thesis, approved by the thesis committee, is also

Oglethorpe University 113

required. In addition hereafter, each candidate for
the Master's degree is required to take a course in
thesis writing and higher English to be approved by
the Dean.

In addition to the Extension Division, Oglethorpe
University offers a Summer Quarter divided into two
terms of six weeks each. Concentrating intensively
on a few subjects each class meets six times a week.
Three hours each term or six year hours during the
quarter is the regular amount of credit earned. How-
ever, any honor student, having a standing of 90 per
cent the previous term either at Oglethorpe or any
other approved institution will be allowed to take one
additional hour each term, thus making 8 hours the
possible maximum.

According to the rules of the City administration
of Atlanta all extension work of their teachers must
be done after school closes on Friday. This means
Friday afternon, Friday night and Saturday. Not
more than two courses, one on Friday and one on Sat-
urday will be permitted the city teachers, 6 year hours
at most. This meets the wishes of the Atlanta School
administration.

By these plans, teachers combining extension work
and Summer School attendance will be able to receive
their degree in a reasonable time.

At present the number of college graduates offer-
ing for teaching places is so large that we are rap-
idly approaching the time when college graduation
will be required as a minimum for the profession.

In all divisions of Oglethorpe University there is
now a uniform charge of fifteen dolllars per year
hour. A year hour is two semester hours frequently
referred to as a minor. Tuition is payable by the

^1^ Oglethorpe University

term (or per year hour) in advance. However, ar-
rangements can be made to divide this into monthly
payments.

During the session of 1935-36 the following sub-
jects have been given: Biology 1; Mental Hygiene,
Spanish 1; Short Story, American History, Mechan-
ical Drawing, Botany, Mythology, Psychology of Ele-
mentary Subjects.

University, or Dr. Herman J. Gaertner, Oglethorpe
University, Ga. Telephone Cherokee 3210.

DIRECTIONS, ON ARRIVAL

Students arriving at any of the Railway or Bus
terminals in Atlanta may board "West Peachtree-
Oglethorpe University" street cars at the points listed
below. This method of transportation is much more
economical than by taxicab.

Students arriving at the Terminal Station in At-
lanta may walk a distance of four blocks (down Mit-
chell Street to Broad Street, up Broad Street to the
northwest corner of Broad and Marietta Streets) and
board the street car.

Students arriving at the Union Station may walk
a distance of two blocks (down Forsyth to Marietta
Street, down Marietta to Broad Street) and board
the street car at the same point as described above.

Students arriving at the Union Bus Terminal may
walk a distance of two blocks (up Carnegie Way to
Peachtree Street, up Peachtree Street one block to
a safety zone) and board the same car at this point.

Fares on street cars in Atlanta are ten cents for
one fare (cash) or four tickets for thirty cents. These
tickets may be purchased from the street car operator.

Oglethorpe Univbrsity 115

Athletics Hermance Field

The ina,gnificent generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
P. Hermance in giving to Oglethorpe an Athletic Sta-
dium, makes feasible the development of all forme of
field sports, including not only the great games of
football and baseball, but also vaulting, jumping, dis-
cus and javelin throwing, track work, etc. Physical
culture for all students is required.

A sanely encouraging attitude is taken by the Uni-
versity toward intercollegiate athletics, and Ogle-
thorpe University is acquitting herself well in that
sphere of her educational life.

The pohcy of Oglethorpe University includes the
care of the physical life of our students as a matter
of large importance. Regular instruction, looking to
symmetrical development of the entire man will be
given in the Athletic Department of the University,
under competent medical guidance. Special attention
is at present given to outdoor athletics. Adequate
provision is being made for football and baseball
grounds, tennis courts, etc. Work on Hermance Sta-
dium has been completed, and a section is finished
providing accommodations for five thousand specta-
tors and participants.

Lake Phoebe

Besides having those sports common to all well
equipped colleges in the South, Oglethorpe Univer-
sity is the fortunate possessor of a beautiful lake
covering eighty acres located conveniently to the Uni-
versity campus, with a part of its shores set aside
for a university boat house. This will enable the

116 Oglethorpe University

institution to add a crew to its list of athletic sports.
The lake is admirably suited for boating, rowing,
swimming and fishing.

Moral and Religious Atmosphere

The ability of a college or university to develop
worthy character in its students depends largely upon
that indefinable quality called college atmosphere.
As a mother, she breathes her own soul into her boys.
They inherit all she has been through, all of her labor
and strength and faith and prayer. If her judg-
ments have been bought out with money, they inherit
that; if with blood, they inherit that. Every storm
through which she has passed strengthens them for
their own conflicts in the days that are to come.

Oglethorpe is a daughter of battle and faith and
prayer. God alone built her, touching the hearts of
multitudes of His children at the voice of her call.
Alone of all the prominent ante-bellum universities
she died for her ideals, and her alone of all the uni-
versities of America, God raised from the dead.

By her every battle, her every faith, her every tri-
umph, she has learned what things are really worth
while and what hand really to lean upon. She will
tell her children of Him.

Libraries

By the generosity of many friends, so great as to
be almost unparalleled, and by purchase from special
funds provided, the university received during the
first year of its life approximately fifty thousand vol-
umes for the library. These consist of standard

Oglethorpe Univbrsity 117

works in Literature, History and Science, with many-
valuable reference works in special departments. The
private libraries of Dr. Sellers in Science, of Dr. Nic-
olassen in the Classics and of Dr. Burrows in Edu-
cation are all available for the use of the students
in these departments. The policy of the institution is
to let no year go by without the enlargement of the
library. A competent librarian is in charge, and the
rooms will be open during the year of 1936-37 from
7:30 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. The Carnegie Library of
Atlanta is also available for the use of our students.

King Library of English

By the splendid generosity of Dr. Cheston King the
university has a library of English with some seven-
teen thousand books and pamphlets.

Special Religious Services

Regular assembly exercises which the students are
required to attend, are conducted by each of the mem-
bers of the faculty in turn. Three years ago Testa-
ments were distributed to a large number of students.
During the last two years daily preaching services
have been held for one or two weeks by Rev. Peter
Marshall, pastor of Westminster Presbyterian Church,
Atlanta, Ga.

Oglethorpe Goat-of-Arms

Among the unique honors offered at the university
is the presentation of a sweater with the Coat-of-
Arms blazoned thereon, which will be awarded in the

118 Oglethorpe University

future under the terms of the following resolution
unanimously adopted by the Faculty of the univer-
sity, upon recommendation of the President:

"Resolved, that on and after September 1st, 1922,
the Coat-of-Arms of Oglethorpe University shall be
given to those students carrying a minimum of fifteen
hours weekly, of excellent personal character and con-
duct, whose general average for all the courses taken
during five preceding consecutive terms shall have
been not less than 93, or who, in lieu of said general
average, shall have so distinguished themselves in
some intellectual, creative, or constructive accomplish-
ment as to entitle them thereto in the judgment of
the faculty."

For students who entered in September, 1931, or
later, the award will be made on the basis of their
comprehensive examination at the close of the College
Division.

The Oglethorpe Idea

Quality is the word that expresses the Oglethorpe
idea quality in location, in climate, in campus, in ar-
chitecture, in student character, in college life, in ath-
letics and sports, in faculty, in curriculum and in re-
ligion and morals. Every one of these we offer at
Oglethorpe.

Located in the commercial and educational capital
of the South, with an unrivaled climate, on the most

Oglethorpe University 121

distinguished street in that city, on a most beautiful
campus of over six hundred acres of woodland and
meadow, including an eighty acre lake which belongs
to our students for swimming, boating and fishmg,
the physical advantages offered by Oglethorpe Univ-
ersity are unsurpassed anywhere in the section _

One by one a splendid body of buildings is being
erected on its campus. Every one of them will be of
granite trimmed with limestone and covered with
variegated slates. All of them will be as fire proof
as human skill can make them, and as commodious
and comfortable as our architects can plan them. They
will be like the first buildings already erected, which
are beheved to be the safest, most beautiful and most
efficient college or university buildings m the South-
east.

The Oglethorpe Site Atlanta

The attractions of the city of Atlanta as an educa-
tional center are fast making it one of the great in-
tellectual dynamos of the nation. Gifted with a soft
Southern mountain clima,te, convenient of access to
the entire nation over its many lines of railway, known
everywhere as the center of Southern activities, she
draws to herself as to a magnet the great mmds of the
nation and the world. Hither come lecturers, mu-
sicians, statesmen, evangelists, editors, teachers and
officials of the United States. An intellectual atmos-
phere created by such conditions and the frequent op-
portunity of contact with these leaders in all branches
of human activity, offered frequently to our students,
give Oglethorpe University an advantage of position
and of opportunity which she will cultivate to the ut-
most. Facihties for hearing and meeting the great

122 Oglethorpe University

musicians and authors and public speakers and the
leaders in all spheres of intellectual activity are offer-
ed our students. The tremendous influence of such
contact upon the young lives committed to us will be
felt in their increased ambition and redoubled deter-
mination to perform, themselves, their duty to their
race and their God.

The Silent Facutly at Oglethorpe

It is not going too far to say that the aesthetic
tasts and home habits of many young men are ruined
at college by the cheap and unattractive furnishings
of their rooms and the ugly forbidding architecture
of the buildings, whose walls often deface their cam-
pus. The architecture of an institution of learning
should be a constant source of delight and inspiration
to its students, teaching quietly but surely the highest
ideals of life. Indeed all tihose qualities of soul we
know as honesty, solidity, dignity, durability, rever-
ence and beauty may be expressed in the face of a
building and are so expressed on the Oglethorpe
campus.

Not less important are the personal surroundings
of the student's room. Cheap, ugly and ill-equipped
apartments have exactly the same influence on the
soul of a boy that cheap, ugly and ill-equipped human
companions have. That is why the rooms at Ogle-
thorpe are handsomely furnished. The sons of the
poor are entitled to the information and inspiration
such surroundings offer, and the sons of the rich will
deteriorate with them.

In brief the college education that does not teach a
love of beauty and tidiness and what is popularly
called decency is essentially and dangerously defective.

Oglethorpb University 123

This is the special work of the silent faculty at
Oglethorpe.

The Exceptional Opportunities of Our
Personal Attention

Young men who desire to enjoy the daily personal
contact and instruction of the heads of departments
will note with interest that Oglethorpe offers excep-
tional opportunities of that nature. It is well known
that in all our large institutions only the upper class-
men come into any close contact with the full profes-
sors, who as heads of departments occupy their time
in other matters than in educating freshmen.

We believe in giving our freshmen the best we have,
and they will be taught by men who have taught in or
had offered them, chairs in the greatest universities
of America. This will be a permanent policy at
Oglethorpe.

Public Utilities

Oglethorpe University has the double advantage of
being located in the suburbs of Atlanta, so far out as
not to be subject to the distractions of city life, yet so
near in as to enjoy all the public utilities of a great
city. Among these are city water, electric lights, city
trolley line, telephone and telegraph service, and in
addition thereto the University has its own postoffice,
express office and railway station, all known as Ogle-
thorpe University, Georgia.

Woman's Board

One of the most remarkable gatherings, even in
this city of remarkable gatherings, was the assemb-
ling of approximately two hundred of the represen-

124 Oglethorpe University

tative women of the city of Atlanta at the homie of
President Thornwell Jacobs, Saturday afternoon, No-
vember 25, 1916, to organize a Woman's Board for
Oglethorpe University.

The purpose of the Board is to aid the University
in every wise and efficient way, with counsel of, and
guidance by the proper authorities of the institution.
Already more than four hundred of the finest work-
ers and most representative women of the city have
offered their services and joined the organization.
Their activities are directed toward the support and
development of Oglethorpe in every phase of its
growth and activities. Each of the ladies is assigned
to the comimittee on which she feels she is best able
to serve. These committees cover the various depart-
ments of the University. They are : Ways and Means,
Finance, Grounds, Press, Entertainment, Hospital,
Music, Library, Arts, Refreshments, Transportation,
and such other commiittees as it may seem wise to the
Board from time to time to appoint.

The authorities of the University welcome the for-
mation of this organization with the greatest joy.

The mere fact that they have promised a devoted
allegiance to the enterprise has its own genuine value,
but those who know the women of Atlanta, with their
marvelous capacity for earnest and consecrated work
directed by a swift and accurate intelligence, will
realize what must be the results of the efficient aid
which they are giving to the institution.

The Woman's Board has established a permanent
endowment fund, and has been incorporated under the
laws of Georgia in preparation for handling funds
donated or bequeathed to the University through the
Woman's Board.

1 That they desire for themselves and their associates and
successors to be incorporated and made a body politic under the
name and style of Oglethorpe University for a period of
Twenty Years.

2 The purpose of this corporation is educational, and its
principal place of business and corporate home shall be in the
County of Fulton and the State of Georgia, but it prays the
right and power to extend its operations and hold property m
different counties of this state.

3 That said corporation shall be granted the power to re-
ceive by gift, donation, purchase or bequest property of what
ever kind or character and wherever situated; to receive and
hold funds as trustees, such funds to be used m such manner
as may be provided in the trust granting same; to establish and
conduct a University for the purpose of promoting education
of such kind and character as may be desirable and desired and
as may be determined by the governing body; to enforce good
order, receive donations, make purchases, and effect all alien-
ations of realty and personalty, not for the purpose of trade
and profit, but for promoting the general design of such estab-
lishments, and to look after the general interests of such in-
stitutions; to grant diplomas and confer degrees, literary,
scientific, professional and clerical, and such other degrees and
honors as are usually conferred by Universities, in such manner
and at such time, and under such circumstances as the govern-
ing body may determine; to hold, use and invest such funds as
may belong to it, and to hold as trust funds any property that
may be placed in trust for scholarship or other purpose con-
nected with education, and generally to have such corporate
powers as may be suitable and not inconsistent with the laws
of this state, nor violative of private rights.

4 Said Corporation to be governed by a Board of Directors
of such numbers as may be provided in the by-laws; no one is
or shall ever be eligible to membership m such board except
a member in good standing of the Presbyterian Church; and
as a further qualification to such membership, each member

versity not less than One Thousand Dollars. Members to be
elected by the Existing Board of Trustees and their successors,
provided an Executive Committee of Directors may be given
full povsrer to perform all or any part of the corporate functions
herein granted.

5. The Oglethorpe University has no capital stock, and all
property ovraed or acquired hereafter by it is to be held for
the purpose of an educational university. Petitioners desire
that the Oglethorpe University when incorporated shall have
the right to sue and to be sued, to plead and to be impleaded, to
have and use a common seal, to make all necessary by-laws
and regulations: and to do all other things that may be neces-
sary for the successful accomplishment of its purpose as a
University; with the right to execute notes and bonds as evi-
dence of indebtedness incurred or which may be incurred in
the conduct of the affairs of the corporation and to secure the
same by mortgages, security, deed, bond, or other form of lien
under existing laws as well as under any other laws that may
hereafter be passed.

6. They desire for the said corporation the power and au-
thority to apply for and accept amendments to its charter of
either form or substance by a vote of a majority of its Board
of Directors.

7. They desire for the said corporation the right of renewal
when and as provided by the laws of Georgia, and that it have
all such other rights powers, privileges and communities as
are incident to like corporations or permissible under the laws

GEORGIA Fulton County.

The petition of Oglethorpe University respectfuUy shows:

1 That by an order of this honorable court, petitioner was
duly incorporated on the 8th day of May, 1913; to which pro-
ceedings reference is made.

2 That Paragraph 4 of said charter granted as aforesaid,

152 Oglethorpe University

The corporate functions which shall mean the control of the
property of the corporation, its purchase, sale and other dis-
position shall be by a Board of Trustees of such number as
may be provided in the by-laws; no one is or shall ever be

good standing of a Presbyterian or Reformed Church. This
Board shall be elected from among those of the Board of
Founders, hereinafter provided for, who shall possess the
requisite qualifications. No mortgage, sale or other disposition

sider such disposition.

There shall be a Board of Founders, of such number as may
be prescribed by the by-laws, who shall be persons who have

tributing thereto, or in whose behalf there has been contributed
in cash, property, or solvent promises not less than one thou-
sand dollars and who are of such character and with such
interest in promoting religion, morality and education as fits
them for membership. This board shall have the power and
it shall be its duty to have control and supervision over the

EXHIBIT "A"

Resolved by the Board of Trustees-Founders of Oglethorpe
University that paragraph 4, as it now reads in the origfinal
charter thereof dated May 8, 1913, be stricken and in lieu
thereof, a new^ paragraph 4 shall be inserted as follows:

The corporate functions which shall mean the control of
the property of the corporation, its purchase, sale and other
disposition shall be by a Board of Trustees of such number
as may be provided in the by-laws; no one is or shall ever
be eligible to membership in such board except a member
in good standing of a Presbyterian or Reformed Church. This
Board shall be elected from among those of the Board of
Founders, hereinafter provided for, who shall possess the
requisite qualifications. No mortgage, sale or other disposi-
tion of the real property of the corporation shall ever be made
except by vote of the Board of Trustees in a regular meeting
or in a special meeting called therefor. Notice must be given
in the call for any such special meeting of the purpose of con-
sider such disposition.

There shall be a Board of Trustees of such number as may
be prescribed by the by-laws who shall be persons who have
shown their interest in the purpose of the University by
contributing thereto, or in whose behalf there has been con-
tributed in cash, property or solvent promises not less than
one thousand dollars and who are of such character and with
such interest in promoting religion, morality and education as
fits them for membership. This Board shall have the power
and it shall be its duty to have control and supervision over
the educational functions of the University, of its President,
officers, faculty, and courses of study; to elect from among
its members the Board of Trustees; to borrow money but not
to secure the same by lien on the real property; to elect from
eligible persons successors of the present Board of Founders,
to create an Executive Committee with authority to perform
all its functions v/hen the Board is not in session, as may be
provided for in the by-laws and to perform generally the ad-
ministrative functions of the University. The present Board
of Trustees-Founders shall constitute the Board of Founders,
whose members and their successors shall hold for life unless
they are removed or resign.

Resolved further that the President of the Board of Trus-
tees-Founders be authorized and directed to take the necessary
steps to amend the Constitution of Oglethorpe University as
herein before resolved.

I, Joseph R. Murphy, Secretary, Board of Trustees-Foun-
ders, Oglethorpe University, hereby certify that the above and

Historical

(From a copy of the Milledgeville Journal, September 5, 1937,
presented to the University library by Miss Emma Thomas,
of Athens, Georgia, the great-granddaughter of Mr. B. P.
Stubbs, Secretary, who signed the notice in behalf of the Ex-
ecutive Committee.)

Oglethorpe University

It has already been announced, that this Institution will
commence its exercises on the first Monday of January, 1838.
The Board of Trustees, while again calling public attention
to this fact, offer some remarks in explanation to a new feature
which they may have given to its character.

The University will consist of three departments. Collegiate,
Academic, and Primary.

Any person desirous of seeing the laws which govern the
Collegiate department, can obtain a copy of the pamphlet con-
taining them, by application to B. P. Stubbs, of this place. Sec-
retary and Treasurer of the Board.

Candidates for admission into the Freshman Class, must be
prepared to stand an examination on Csesar's Commentaries,
four books, Cicero's Select Orations, Mair's Introduction to
Latin Syntax, the Gospels in the Greek Testament, Dalpel's
Grammar, including Latin Prosody; also, on English Gram-
mar, Arithmetic and Geography, ancient and modern.

156 Oglethorpe University

The Academic Department will consist of those who are
preparing for entrance into this or any other college.

The Primary Department will be composed of those pur-
suing the ordinary branches of an English education.

The students of these two departments as well as the Col-
legiate, will be instructed by the Faculty of the College.

In consequence of this arrangement, boys, in the early stage
of their literary course, will enjoy advantages perhaps un-
surpassed in this country, as they will be taught by a regular
Faculty, while the students of the college will receive the full
amount of instruction ordinarily given them, as will be seen
by a reference to the course of study. This system will vastly
increase the labor of the Faculty; this labor they have how-
ever consented to undergo.

The adoption of this new plan has been caused by the pecu-
liar state of the times. Though the amount on our subscrip-
tion list is sufficient to warrant the commencement of the work
in its original form, yet from the present state of affairs, it
would have been more than indelicate to call upon many in-
dividuals for their subscriptions. On the other hand, many
parents have been making arrangements to send their sons to
Midway during the next year. Such persons it would be
painful to disappoint, yet it would be impossible to proceed
for want of surplus in hand. The course now announced as
being adopted, was then proposed that is, to bring the Acad-
emy and College under the government and instruction of the
same President and Professors. By this arrangement the ex-
pense of the institution will be sustained, and all difficulties
in its way removed.

The Board of Trustees takes this occasion to say that this
year the Steward's Hall will be discontinued. This is done,
that there may be no hindrance in the way of such persons as
may wish to move to Midway for the purpose of taking
boarders.

The Trustees close this communication by stiggesting to
parents, (who desire their children to be educated, and who
cannot afford to send them abroad for this purpose) the pro-
priety of settling themselves at Midway. By taking boarders,
the expenses of their family could be more sustained, and
their children of all ages receive thorough and finished edu-
cation. To others disposed to turn their attention to keeping
boarders as a business, we would suggest that Midway offers
inducements inferior to few if any other positions at the South
a healthy and delightful location, and as many boarders as
they may be able to accommodate.

By order of the Executive Committee.

B. P. STUBBS, Secretary.
