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. ^The list on the following pages in corrected to March 1, 1936.

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.

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. 32 Oglethorpe University ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS In the Schools of Liberal Arts, Literature and Journalism, Science, Business Administration, Education, Secretarial Preparation, Fine Arts, and Physical Education The requirement for entrance to the Academic Schools of Oglethorpe University is a certificate of graduation from an accredited high school-* Or in case of non-graduation, if the candidate has fifteen units from an accredited high school he may absolve his deficiencies by standing entrance examinations on four subjects, two of which shall be English and Math- ematics. The candidate must present at least three units in English and two units in Mathematics. A unit represents a year's study in any subject in an ac- credited high school. List of Entrance Units Fifteen units may be selected from the following list: Group I English Grammar I 1 unit Rhetoric I 1 unit English Literature I or II 1 unit Group II Algebra (to quadratics) 1 unit Algebra (quadratics and beyond) 1/2 or 1 unit Geometry (Plane) 1 unit Geometry (Solid) 1/2 unit * Students coming from outside the State of Georgia may be admitted on fifteen units without a high school diploma and without examination. Oglethorpe University 33 Group III Trigonometry l/^ unit Advanced Arithmetic 1 unit Latin 1, 2, 3, or 4 units Greek 1, 2, or 3 units German 1 or 2 units French 1 or 2 units Spanish 1 or 2 units (Not less than one unit of any foreign language will be accepted). Group IV American History or American History and Civil Government 1 unit Ancient History (Greek and Roman) and Me- dieval History to Modern Times 1 unit Modem History (General History may be counted as a unit, but not in addition to Ancient, Medieval and Modern History) 1 unit English History 1 unit Group V General Science 1 unit Physics 1 unit Chemistry 1 unit Zoology y^ or 1 unit Botany V^ or 1 unit Physical Geography 14 oi" 1 unit Physiology, Zoology, Botany. Any two of these may be counted together as 1 unit Special Students students twenty years of age may be admitted for special study upon satisfying the Faculty as to their ability to do the work of the classes which they wish 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. 46 Oglethorpe University 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.

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 57 School of Liberal Arts Leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in the Liberal Arts G. F. NicoLASSEN, Dean This course of study is intended to encourage es- pecially the study of languages, ancient and modern. No Latin is required for entrance.

The use of accents is required. A part of the work of this class consists of the min- ute study of the verbs, their principal parts, synopsis of tenses, and inflection of certain portions. Written translations of English into Greek are re- quired once a week. On the other days a short oral exercise of this kind forms a part of the lesson; so that in each recitation some practice is had in trans- lating English into Greek. Elective. Two hours.

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.

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.

Reder Mary Steadwell Creighton Perry Ralph Thacker 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.

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. Oglethorpe University 155 The course of instruction in the several classes, will be as follows, towit: FRESHMAN CLASS WINTER SESSION SUMMER SESSION Cicero de Amicitia, Graeca Majora, Latin and Greek Exercises, Algebra (Davis), Geography Cicero de Officiis and Horace (Odes) Graeca Majora, Latin and Greek Exercises Roman Antiquities. SOPHOMORE CLASL WINTER SESSION Horace, (Satires and Ars Poetica,) Graeca Majora Geometry (Playf air's Euclid) Plane Trigonometry, Lectures on History .(Priestly) SUMMER SESSION Livy, Graeca Majora. Plane Trigonometry, Navigation, Mensuration, (Day's) Surveying, (Day's) History. JUNIOR CLASS WINTER SESSION Spherical Trigonometry, Analytic Geometry, (Includ- ing Conic Sections) Descriptive Geometry, Differential Calculus, Nautical Astronomy, Evidences of Christianity, Cicero de Oratore, Longinus, SUMMER SESSION Integral Calculus (Young's) Natural Philosophy, Cicero de Oratore, Longinus, Natural Theology, Logic. SENIOR CLASS WINTER SESSION SUMMER SESSION Belles Lettres, Philosophy, Moral Philosophy, Natural Philosophy, Quintilian, Chemistry, (Provision v/ill also be made for instruction in Modem Languages) Moral Philosophy. Astronomy, Chemistry. Languages, General Review. 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.
