THE CREED OF OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

I believe in God:

Infinite intelligence, eternal love, immeasurable power;

Father and mother, creator and preserver and destroyer

Of all that was and is and will be;

Whether visible or invisible,

Audible or inaudible,

Tangible or intangible.

I love God with all my heart and mind and will.

I see and hear God at all times, in all places, in all things.

I study the Law of God in science, in literature, in religion.

I worship God in gratitude, in truth and in conduct.

I believe in Man:

In his glorious struggle upward out of the night of the past,

In his ability and willingness to accept and develop

The opportunities and duties of his present dawn,

And in the certainty of his eventual arrival

At the sublime noon of his highest ideals.

I believe in virtue, in justice, and in righteousness among men,

The faithful guides that illumine his path

Through the jungles of hates and greeds and fears,

I love man, as a friend, as a brother, as myself.

I work for man, for his intellectual enlightenment, for his ma-
terial betterment, for his moral development.

I believe in myself.

In my courage, in my conscience, in my power.

I believe in strength through joy, joy through faith, and faith
through prayer.

I believe that the parenthood of God and the brotherhood of
man

Are above and around and within me.

I believe that the Will of God

Is revealed in me as in all things else;

Most clearly in my best thoughts, my noblest feelings, my fin-
est ambitions.

I believe in my Messiahship, and in that of all men who follow

The urge to live and die for the welfare of the world.

I believe in my future;

That the kind power which led me through the eternity of the
past to this present good hour,

Without my knowledge or consent.

Will never withdraw his loving kindness from me

Now that I have learned to know and love and trust Him.

To this faith I commit my all.

Lead on, O God!

The Prayer
Of Oglethorpe University

FATHER OF WISDOM, MASTER OF THE SCHOOLS OF MEN, OF
THINE ALL-KNOWLEDGE GRANT ME THIS MY PRAYER: THAT
I MAY BE WISE IN THEE. SINK THOU MY FOUNDATIONS
DEEP INTO THY BOSOM UNTIL THEY REST UPON THE VAST
ROCK OF THY COUNSEL. LIFT THOU MY WALLS INTO THE
CLEAR EMPYREAN OF THY TRUTH. COVER ME WITH THE
WINGS THAT SHADOW FROM ALL HARM. LAY MY THRESH-
OLDS IN HONOR AND MY LINTELS IN LOVE. SET THOU MY
FLOORS IN THE CEMENT OF UNBREAKABLE FRIENDSHIP AND
MAY MY WINDOWS BE TRANSPARENT WITH HONESTY. LEAD
THOU UNTO ME, LORD GOD, THOSE WHOM THOU HAST AP-
POINTED TO BE MY CHILDREN, AND WHEN THEY SHALL
COME WHO WOULD LEARN OF ME THE WISDOM OF THE
YEARS, LET THE CRIMSON OF MY WINDOWS GLOW WITH
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. LET THEM SEE, MY LORD,
HIM WHOM THOU HAST SHOWN ME; LET THEM HEAR HIM
WHOSE VOICE HAS WHISPERED TO ME AND LET THEM REACH
OUT THEIR HANDS AND TOUCH HIM WHO HAS GENTLY LED
ME UNTO THIS GOOD DAY. ROCK-RIBBED MAY I STAND FOR
THY TRUTH. LET THE STORMS OF EVIL BEAT ABOUT ME
IN VAIN. MAY I SAFELY SHELTER THOSE WHO COME UNTO
ME FROM THE WINDS OF ERROR. LET THE LIGHTNING THAT
LIES IN THE CLOUD OF IGNORANCE BREAK UPON MY HEAD
IN DESPAIR. MAY THE YOUNG AND THE PURE AND THE
CLEAN-HEARTED PUT THEIR TRUST SECURELY IN ME NOR
MAY ANY WHO COME TO MY HALLS FOR GUIDANCE BE
SENT ASTRAY. LET THE BLUE ASHLARS OF MY BREAST
THRILL TO THE HAPPY SONGS OF THE TRUE-HEARTED AND
MAY THE VERY HEART OF MY CAMPUS SHOUT FOR JOY
AS IT FEELS THE TREAD OF THOSE WHO MARCH FOR GOD.
ALL THIS I PRAY THEE; AND YET THIS MORE: THAT THERE
MAY BE NO STAIN UPON MY STONES, FOREVER. AMEN.

The Faculty of the University

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

Historical Sketch

The historical genesis of Oglethorpe University
takes us back to the middle of the eighteenth century
when, under the leadership of Presbyterian men,
Princeton College was founded in New Jersey and
rapidly 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 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 Presbytery in
the year 1823, and eventuated in the founding of a
manual training school, and this in turn, became
Oglethorpe College in 1835 when Midway Hill, in the
suburbs 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-
entist, Samuel K. Talmadge, the eminent administra-

26 Oglethorpe University

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, modera-
tors 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 des-
troyed. An effort was made to revive the institution
in the '70's and to locate it in Atlanta, but the evils
of reconstruction days and financial disaster made
the adventure impossible, and after a year and a half
of struggle the doors were closed for the second time.

Only twenty-nine years have passed since the pres-
ent movement to re-found the university began and
they have been years of financial disaster and utter
turmoil, yet the assets and subscription pledges of
the institution have passed the sum of one and a half
million dollars as the result of unusual and self-sac-
rificing liberality on the part of over five thousand
people.

The corner 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).

Oglethorpe University 27

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 construction goes steadily
on. All of this has been done in the midst of finan-
cial disaster 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-nine years
ago with a contribution of $100.00 a year for ten years
from her 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 Galves-
ton, Texas, to Charlottsville, 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

28 Oglethorpe University

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
illustration.

It will be seen that the architects and landscape
artists have spared no pains to make Oglethorpe one
of the really beautiful universities of America. The
architecture is Collegiate Gothic; the building mate-
rial is a beautiful blue granite trimmed with lime-
stone. All the buildings are covered with heavy vari-
egated slates. The interior construction is of steel,
concrete, brick and hollow tile. 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 men-
tioned above with the land and the landscape work
required, will be approximately $4,000,000. The build-
ing 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
campuses in the entire world. In the summer of 1929
Mr. Hearst gave to the University the entire Silver

Oglethorpe University 29

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 tjie University ample space for future develop-
ment 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 Helena Hermance, the don-
ors.

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 are most concerned, it is the spiritual and
intellectual life of their university. To that end they

30 Oglethorpe University

have resolved to maintain a faculty and a curriculum
that will be of the highest possible quality, their
thought being excellence in every department. They
are taking the superb traditions of the Old Ogle-
thorpe 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 deed 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 cam-
pus in Georgia. Concerts are given daily.

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-

Oglethorpe University 31

cialists 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 obser-
vation, inspection and investigation.

Grounds and Buildings

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.

In front of the entrance to the campus is the term-
inus of the Oglethorpe University street car line, and
an attractive little stone station of the Southern Rail-
way main line beween Atlanta and Washington. The
first building to be located on the campus, the Ad-
ministration Building, contains in the basement a din-
ing room ; on the ground floor, chemistry and physics
lecture rooms, and laboratories, the administrative
offices and lounging room for young ladies attending
the college; on the second and third floors, the hospi-
tal and dormitories. Lupton Hall contains the libra-
ry, the President's office, class rooms, dormitories, an
Assembly Hall seating approximately six hundred,
equipped also as a theatre for the presentation of stu-
dent dramas, and in the basement, basketball court,
swimming pool, lockers and showers, and quarters

32 Oglethorpe University

of the University Press. The University Press is
equipped with a Babcock optimus press, linotype ma-
chine and two job presses, with a number of type
stands and other printing equipment given by a friend
of the University.

Lowry Hall houses the Lowry School of Banking
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 contains
class rooms and dormitories, and will stand as a per-
petual memorial to the generosity of Colonel It. J.
Lowry and Emma Markham Lowry.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

In the Schools of Liberal Arts, Literature and

Journalism, Science, Business Administration,

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-

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

Oglethorpe University 35

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-
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 stand-
ards.

(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;

** Section 14. No charter giving the right to confer degrees
or issue diplomas shall he 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 Professional school
shall give evidence of its ability to meet the standard require-
ments set up by the State Board of Education.

36 Oglethorpe University

(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;

(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

Oglethorpe University 37

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
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

38 Oglethorpe University

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 should have
not less than one full year of graduate work, major-
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-

Oglethorpe University 39

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
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

40 Oglethorpe University

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.

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 degrees, 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
encouragement 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

Oglethorpe University 41

publications, student organizations, and all extra-cur-
ricular activities, is one of the fundamental tests of a
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
accepted 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.

General Information

REGISTRATION

1. Each student will first report of the Dean of the
school in which he wishes to register. With his
course and schedule approved by his Dean, the stu-
dent will present his schedule card to the Registrar.
He will then record his courses on triplicate cards.

2. A student is not considered registered until he
registers his subjects in the Registrar's office, has
these courses approved by the Registrar, secures a
bill from the Bursar, and pays the Cashier.

3. No student is to be admitted to class without
a student card issued by the Cashier when he has set-
tled his financial obligations to the University.

4. At the beginning of each term, a few days after
registration, the Registrar sends to each professor
course cards for each student who has registered.
Should a student fail to appear in class before the
ten days allowed for changing, dropping, or adding
subjects, the professor is to notify the Registrar im-
mediately. Failure of the professor to do so does
not excuse the student from the financial obligation
involved.

5. As soon as course cards are received from the
Registrar's office, each professor must check his
roll and report to the Registrar immediately the
names of any students in his classes for whom he
does not have a card.

6. Subjects may be changed, dropped or added
only during the first ten days of each term and only
upon written permission from the Dean of the school
in which the student is enrolled.

7. Students are allowed to register up to one-third
of the term. It is necessary that a student attend at

Oglethorpe University 43

least two-thirds of the term's classes if credit is de-
sired.

8. Each student is required to register in person.

9. A fine of $1.00 per day (maximum limit one-
third of the duration of the term concerned) is charg-
ed for any student who registers after the dates set
aside for registration as per college calendar.

10. As it is impossible to know how many hours of
work each student will register for at the beginning
of each term, no bills are sent out in advance. The
student is advised to get an estimate of his expense
before the term begins.

11. Deans of departments can require delinquent
students to drop specific courses only at the begin-
ning of each term.

12. In the Summer School students must register
within six days of the beginning of each term.

LATE REGISTRATION

A charge of $1 a day will be made for students
who register after the time set for registration at
the beginning of the winter and spring terms.

FINES

A penalty of $1.00 will be charged each student
moving articles of furniture from one room to an-
other without permission from either the Bursar's of-
fice or the Cashier's office. This fine will also be
charged any student changing his room without per-
mission from the office.

A fine of $1.00 a day (up to one-third of the term)
will be charged for late registration, Winter and
Spring terms.

A fine of $5.00 is charged if any student attends
a class or examination without registration, which in-
cludes payment of charges.

44 Oglethorpe University

CLASSIFICATION

As a basis for determining the classes to which a
student shall belong, the following regulation is to
apply: a first year student must have fulfilled the
requirements for entrance to his class by one of the
methods specified. In addition to his entrance units,
a second year student must have completed fifteen
year hours; a junior thirty year hours; and a senior
forty-five year hours. Special students will not be
eligible for admission to either of the four college
classes, or membership in any of the social fraterni-
ties or the athletic or forensic teams representing the
University. A student failing to receive sufficient
credits during any year to entitle him to enter the
next higher class must remain in the lower class un-
til the deficiencies are absolved. Back work in a re-
quired subject must be made up within the next term ;
otherwise the student will be excluded from the class
to which he would naturally belong.

ACADEMIC HOURS

The average number of hours a week for first year
students is sixteen to seventeen, and is uniform for
all schools of the University. The number of hours
a week for the upperclassmen differs. In order to
avoid errors' in registration all students are required
to arrange their courses and hours with the Deans of
the schools which they wish to enter. This also ap-
plies to special students.

Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors may not take
more than 18 hours a week unless they have made
an average of B with no grade below C in the pre-
vious term. If a student wishes to make more than 20
hours, the written consent of the Dean must be se-
cured, regardless of the average made. Seniors are

Oglethorpe University 45

not limited, but the written consent of the Dean must
be secured.

There must be 66 minimum year hours (198 term
hours) of regular standard work for every degree.
One hour per year may be selected by the student from
Music, Intramural Sports, Football, Debaters' Club,
Players' Club and work on the Petrel, not on the
Yamacraw. The student must register in advance and
pay for these, and they must be certified to by the
professor in charge.

EXAMINATIONS

For a supplemental examination, whether on ac-
count of failure to pass or absence from the Univer-
sity, the student is to pay a fee of $2.00, receipt for
which must be secured from the Cashier and pre-
sented to the professor before the examination is
given. The examination must be taken in the term
following the regular term. In case the student is
out of school one or more terms, he may take it in the
term in which he returns. If the grade is below 50,
the student is not entitled to a re-examination. A fine
of $5 is imposed upon any student taking a re-exami-
nation without having paid this $2 fee in advance.

ABSENCES

A student accumulating a total of ten unexcusted
absences from all classes in one term will forfeit one
hour of credit and two quality points. A total of four
absences in one term from the Tuesday morning As-
sembly carries the same penalty.

All absences concerning illness are to be referred to
and approved by Miss Feebeck, head of the infirmary.
Absences concerning college affairs are to be referred
to and approved by Dean Patrick. Reports on absen-
ces are to be filed in the Registrar's office, and stu-

4G Oglethorpe University

dents are not to be excused by any other faculty mem-
ber.

Excused absences are those caused by illness, ab-
sence from classes on account of college duties, or for
other reasons approved by the Dean.

Excuses for absences must be filed in the Regis-
trar's office by the Monday afternoon following, the
week in which the absences occurred.

Continued and deliberate cutting of classes may in-
volve dismissal from the University.

Absences will be counted from the first regular class
session, whether the student is enrolled at the time or
not, unless excused by the Dean.

FAILURE IN STUDIES

A student who is failing in any of his courses dur-
ing a term will be given personal warning, and a let-
ter will be written to his parent or guardian by the
Dean of his school or the Registrar. If a student be
seriously behind he may be required to withdraw from
the University.

A student must pass at least 50 per cent of his work
each term; failure for two successive terms shall au-
tomatically cause the student to be dropped, provid-
ed however that if such student has registered for
the ensuing term he may continue until the comple-
tion thereof, and if he shall have exhibited a marked
improvement in his studies, the Dean of his depart-
ment may recommend to the faculty the continuance
of such student.

WITHDRAWALS

No withdrawals from the University can be consid-
ered as duly authorized unless a student officially no-
tifies the Dean of the University at the time of with-
drawal. Mere absence from school or non-attendance
upon any classes cannot be construed as definite with-

Oglethorpe University 47

drawal. If the reasons for withdrawal are acceptable
to the Dean, the student's withdrawal is approved, re-
corded, and dated ; and the student is entitled to "hon-
orable dismissal."

Courses of Instruction and
Requirements for Degrees

In the session of 1940-41 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 confer-
red upon those students who satisfactorily complete
a four years' course largely in scientific studies. The
degree of Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Journal-
ism 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 the
studies relating particularly to business administra-
tion. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Education
will be conferred 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.

48 Oglethorpe University

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

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, engineering
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 in-
tend to spend their lives in the business world, the
A.B. course in Commerce, or the A.B. course in Secre-
tarial 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.

Quality Points, Credits, Graduation

The following system of Quality Points has been
adopted :

Superior A (90-99) 3 quality points for each year
hour.

Good B (80-89) 2 quality points for each year
hour.

Fair C (70-79) 1 quality point for each year hour.

Passing D (60-69) no quality points.

Oglethorpe University 49

Condition E (50-59) re-examination allowed.
Failure F (below 50) no re-examination.
Inc. Incomplete.

In the junior division of the college 30 quality points
must have been achieved before the student is recog-
nized as being in the senior division. The student
lacking the required 30 points will be required to re-
main in the junior college until the needed quality
points have been achieved through further studies.
For graduation in the senior college the student must
have achieved 30 additional quality points in senior
college studies, or a total of 60 quality points for
graduation and the degree. Transfer students must
achieve 15 quality points for each year spent in study
in Oglethorpe University.

No fractional credits made either in Oglethorpe
University or by transcript from another institution
will be recognized for graduation in any freshman or
sophomore subject.

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.

Correspondence and extension credits combined will
be accepted to 25 per cent of the total requirements
for the degree.

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

Definite official transcripts are required for admis-
sion both to the graduate and under-graduate divis-
ions.

A student who has had two years of a modern lan-
guage in high school cannot receive credit for Fresh-
man work in that language.

50 Oglethorpe University

All diplomas and degrees of Oglethorpe University-
are granted upon the basis of credits for regular class
room attendance and the successful passing of exam-
inations. No credits are given for any form of pri-
vate instruction nor for any course in which the stu-
dent was not formally registered. All courses for
which credits are given must be advertised in the cat-
alogue or filed in advance in writing with the Reg-
istrar by the Dean of the Department in which they
are offered and approved by the President of the Uni-
versity, and must be announced by bulletin as avail-
able to any and all students qualified to take them
under catalogue regulations. All classes must be met
in regular class rooms provided therefor by the Uni-
versity. No credit for any form of work done, other
than as described above, will be granted.

APPLICATION FOR DEGREES

Candidates for graduation must file with the Regis-
trar, at least a month before the time of graduation,
a written application, by filling out a blank form pre-
pared for the purpose. The student is held respon-
sible for filing this application.

University Expenses

Tuition

No charges are made for the usual College fees
such as matriculation, laboratories, infirmary, con-
tingent, and use of library.

The charge for tuition is $80.00 per term, $240.00
per academic year of approximately nine months. For
this sum a student is entitled to take from 12 to 17
credit hours of work per week. No student is per-
mitted to take less than 12 hours per week and those
students who take more than 17 credit hours per week

Oglethorpe University 51

are required to pay for the extra hours at the rate of
$15.00 per hour. These sums are payable in cash in
advance, at the beginning of each term, but the Cash-
ier is given the authority, when a student has proven
that his credit is good, to allow that student to pay
one half of the charges at the beginning of the term
and the other half on or before a date which the
Cashier will set and which will not be later than the
middle of the term. This means of paying tuition
fees is applicable also to charges for board and room
rent.

In the Adult Education Department, charges are
$13.50 for 1/2 course, subject to discount of one-third
to teachers, $9.00 per half course, net. The summer
school charges for 1940 are the same as charges in
Adult Education Department. No charge will be made
for room rent during the summer term to any student
taking 4 courses for the entire summer term or 2
courses for a half-summer term, and who boards
at the college cafeteria, ($72.00 for the entire
summer term or $36.00 for the first half.) This free
room rent applies only to teachers in active service.
Relatives and friends who do not attend college class-
es may board in the dormitories by paying the regu-
lar room rent and board charges.

Students holding self help positions are not allowed
any additional discount on bills or permitted to hold
any other self help job or scholarships. This does not
include N.Y.A. Scholarships.

Board and Room Rent

The dormitory facilities of Oglethorpe University
are among the safest and most comfortable of those
of cognate institutions in America. All permanent
buildings of the University will be like those now

52 Oglethorpe University

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 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 gen-
eral 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 bed-
rooms with connecting baths. The price charged in-
cludes first class board, steam heat and electric
lights, water and janitor's service; all rooms are fur-
nished adequately and substantially. Every room in
the dormitory contains ample closet and |or wardrobe
space. The rooms are large, airy, safe and comfort-
able.

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
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.

Oglethorpe University 53

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

Room rent: Administration Building, third floor,
Lupton Hail, 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 $72 to $80 for the Autumn term, and $60 to
$70 for the Spring and Winter terms, to suit the vary-
ing requirements of the students. 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 allowed.
The University assumes no responsibility for, and will
not replace, any meal tickets which may be lost or
mutilated. All charges are payable in advance by
the term, of approximately eleven weeks as per col-
lege calendar, and no rebate is allowed for any rea-
son. The particular attention of the student is called
to the fact that the issuance of these meal tickets
is for their convenience, solely; that they are good
only for meals taken during the term for which they
are issued and that the minimum charge for them is
$72.00 for the Autumn term, and $60.00 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 furnished them.

Charges: 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.

All charges are based upon and payable by the term,

54 Oglethorpe University

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
for delayed registration of Winter and Spring terms.
If a student attends a single class, or occupies a dor-
mitory room for a single night or purchases a cafe-
teria 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.

The minimum charges for board and room rent
are set at figures which years of experience have in-
dicated to be suitable to the average student. This
is especially true of board which is set low to suit
many students who so desire it. Those whose re-
quirements are greater are expected to purchase ex-
tra tickets.

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.

ACTIVITY FEE

Upon petition of the Student Body, a special stu-
dent activities fee of $10.00 per term will be charged

Oglethorpe University 55

for the session beginning September 1940. The con-
tingent fee of $3.00 per term at present charged, will
be cancelled. The $30.00 fee will entitle the student
to a subscription of the weekly student paper, THE
STORMY PETREL ($1.50 per year), to the student
annual, THE YAMACRAW, ($7.50 per year) and to
ten tickets at $1.00 each to each of the three foot-
ball games played at Hermance Stadium during the
autumn of 1940. These tickets, the students are at
liberty to sell or use for their friends and guests.

In addition to the above, a season's pass will be
given to each, student, admitting him or her, without
further charge, to all baseball, basketball and other
athletic contests played on the campus of the Univer-
sity during the above mentioned session.

FINES

A penalty of $1.00 will be charged each student
moving articles of furniture from one room to an-
other without permission from either the Bursar's of-
fice or the Cashier's office. This fine will also be
charged any student changing his room without per-
mission from the office.

A fine of $1.00 a day (up to one-third of the term)
will be charged for late registration, Winter and
Spring terms.

A fine of $5.00 is charged if any student attends
a class or examination without registration, which in-
cludes advance payment of charges.

Infirmary

The University maintains at all times an excellent
infirmary, with a nurse in attendance, for the prompt
treatment of accidents and of such cases of sickness

5*3 Oglethorpe University

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 le-
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 oi special illness requiring operations or the ser-
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 such accidents and injuries
arising from participation in inter-coliegiate sports,
as they may feel competent to treat, in which case a
special consideration is offered as specified elsewhere.

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 baggage 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
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.

Students arriving at any of the Railway or Bus
terminals in Atlanta may board "Oglethorpe" street

Oglethorpe University 57

cars at the points listed below. This method of trans-
portation 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
northeast 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) and board the street car.

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 tokens for thirty cents. These
tokens may be purchased from the street car operator.

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 of teach-
ers working toward degrees.

All summer courses are credited toward the attain-
ment of a degree, and afford a convenient way to
speed up the date of graduation. The work is given
in courses and half courses. One course is equivalent
to one and two-third year hours or three and one-third
semester hours. Write for bulletin of Summer Ses-
sion.

Graduate School

It is the purpose of Oglethorpe University to de-
velop a thoroughly excellent Graduate School, offer-

58 Oglethorpe University

ing courses in all departments leading to the Master's
degree. In supplying this need, the management of
the University will be content only with the very high-
est 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
institution. The candidate must carry an aggregate
of fifteen hours or nine courses of graduate work,
with at least two professors. A course is equivalent
to one and two-thirds year hours. One-half course
equals five-sixths year hour. Transfer credits (max-
imum three and one-third year hours) will be allowed.
The work must be of graduate grade, and must be ap-
proved by the Dean of the Graduate School and the
Registrar. 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 satisfy
the professors concerned and the whole faculty.

Students entering the graduate school in selecting
their major courses must present not less than two
years (six year hours or 4 courses) of under-graduate
work in the same or closely related subjects evidenced
by official transcripts from standard institutions, rec-
ognized 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 or 2 courses) of
work in any subject selected as a minor.

A minimum of fifteen college hours or 9 courses
and a minimum of one year (nine months) of resi-
dence is required for the Master's degree. A mini-

Oglethorpe University 59

mum of one year or approximately nine months' resi-
dence is required for the Bachelor's degree. Of the
fifteen hours or nine courses required for the Mas-
ter's degree, not less than nine year hours or five and
one-half courses shall be devoted to the major subject
and the balance 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.
Three additional hours may be taken in lieu of a thesis.
The Registrar of the University will be pleased to
answer any inquiries as to graduate courses to be of-
fered.

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
demoralizing 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 deans of the University, to the dean of women,
to the librarian, to the bursar, matron, cashier, foot-
ball coach, superintendent, registrar and to the pres-
ident of the student body with directions that each of
them should canvass the list and set a mark opposite

60 Oglethorpe University

the name of any student who, in their opinion, has
definitely 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 subse-
quent term, this with no implication of expulsion but
to meet the standards adopted for our students.

The President of the University is directed to sup-
ervise the balloting 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
considered.

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 suspen-
sion or expulsion. All contracts and agreements made
with the students by the University are subject to
the above conditions for continued attendance.

Oglethorpe University 61

The Faculty and Administrative Officers of the
University reserve to themselves the right to make
any changes in any of the rules or regulations con-
tained herein or to change any of the textbooks or
other study material which they may deem advisable
at any time. Notice of any change posted on the reg-
ular Bulletin Board maintained by the University shall
be sufficient.

School of Liberal Arts

Leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts 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 or for gradua-
tion. But at least one year of Latin is very desirable
for the better understanding of English words and
English grammar. Such a course may be taken in
college.

Considerable variety is possible in following the
curriculum on page 69, as there are two sections
of English 1, two in Spanish 1, and the languages
may be taken in almost any order. But this arrange-
ment should be followed in the main to avoid conflict
of classes in the later years. Each student in the
Liberal Arts course should consult the Dean at the
very beginning and have his work mapped out for
the whole four years.

At least one year of German and one year of French
will be required either in High School or in College.

Any subject that has been taken in High School
must be replaced by an elective.

Latin

Latin 111-2-3.* For entrance into this class the stu-
dents arfc expected to have had at least three years of

for those who wish to teach Latin. Twice a week
throughout the year. Elective. Two hours.

Greek

Greek 111-2-3. Preparatory. This course is designed
not merely for those who have no previous knowledge
of the language, but also for those whose preparation
is inadequate. The most important subjects, both in
inflection and syntax, are presented early in the course
and then, by a system of weekly reviews, are kept
constantly fresh.

Text-Books: White's First Greek Book, Xenophon's
Anabasis (Goodwin and White). Three times a week
throughout the year. Elective. Three hours.

Greek 211-2-3. The preparation for entrance into
this class is not so much a matter of time as of tho-

numbers denote senior subjects. All courses above five hun-
dred are graduate courses.

The second figure in a course number denotes the sequence,
there being nine possible courses in each subject in the fresh-
man, sophomore, junior, and senior divisions. For instance,
English 121 is a freshman subject offered in the first term,
and is the second English course listed in the catalogue.
The last figure in the course number denotes the term, one
signifying the first or autumn term; two signifying the second
or winter term, and three the spring or third term. For in-
stance, English 111 is a freshman course in English given in
the first term.

roughness. The student is expected to know the ordi-
nary Attic inflections and syntax, to have read about
one book of the Anabasis, and to have had consider-
able practice in translating English into Greek.

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.

Text-Books: Xenophon's Anabasis (Goodwin and
White), Memorabilia, Adams's Lysias, Goodwin's
Greek Grammar, Pearson's Greek Prose Composition,
Myers's Eastern Nations and Greece, Liddell and
Scott's Greek Lexicon (unabridged.)

Greek 311-2-3. In the first term Demosthenes will
be read; in the second, Herodotus; in the third, Ho-
mer. Elective. Two hours.

Graduate Courses in Latin and Greek

511-2-3. Those who are thinking of taking gradu-
ate courses are advised to write to the President or
to the Professor, that their preliminary studies may
be so guided as to fit them for the work. The re-
quirements for entrance into these courses are given
elsewhere in this catalogue, under the head of Grad-
uate School.

In Latin the following course is offered for the
A.M., degree: Vergil's complete works; Vergil in the

School of Literature and Journalism

Leonard DeLong Wallace, Dean

The work in the School of Literature and Journal-
ism is based upon two groups of courses, either one
of which leads to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Al-
though Latin is not required for entrance, two or
three years of Latin are desirable.

A small number of electives are permitted students
in the junior or senior year. However, these electives
must have a definite relation to the complete course
which the student is pursuing toward a degree and
must receive the sanction of the dean.

The group of courses which centers in the study of
English has the two-fold purpose of giving students
command over the use of their own tongue in both
speaking and writing, and of familiarizing them with
those aspects of English literature which are usually
treated in undergraduate courses. These courses also
constitute an excellent basis for the one-year speciali-
zation in English language and literature which leads
to the degree of Master of Arts.

The second group of courses features training in
journalism. Students who elect this group are expect-
ed to pursue the basic courses in literature, history,
economics, political science, and sociology.

English

English 111-2-3. Composition. This required fresh-
man course combines extended practice in writing
with the reading of modern prose and poetry. The
chief object of this course is to teach the student to
arrange his thoughts clearly and present them with
force. Continual emphasis is laid on increasing the

72 Oglethorpe University

store of words. A vocabulary test is given near the
beginning of the fall term, and a second one at the end
of the spring term, to determine what progress each
student has made. All freshmen will be placed in sec-
tions in which the work corresponds to their degree
of development. To this end all freshmen will be given
a test on the day preceding the date of matriculation
for the first quarter. This test is a prerequisite to
entrance to any section of Freshman English. No stu-
dent will be permitted to take advanced work in Eng-
lish until he has made a satisfactory record in this
basic course. Three hours.

English 211-2-3. A Survey of English Literature.

This course comprises : an examination of the history
of this literature; the study in class and the reading
in parallel of representative literary specimens of its
entire development ; consideration of the various types
of literature; analysis of the various forms; study of
the elements of versification. This course is designed
to complete the student's general study of literature
and to introduce him to specialized literary subjects.
Consequently, satisfactory completion of this course is
prerequisite to courses offered for juniors and seniors.
Three hours.

English 311-2-3. The Modern Essay and Advanced
Composition. This course is designed for those juniors
and seniors who have ideas which they wish to express
and who contemplate doing professional writing. The
content of this course is three fold. 1. A brief survey
of the development of the essay as a literary type ; ex-
tensive reading in recent, provocative essays. 2. An-
alysis and discussion of current magazine articles of
importance, especially articles which express ideas
that are revolutionizing the world today. 3. Frequent

Oglethorpe University 73

opportunities for the student to develop control over
the effective skills of writing. Three hours.

English 321-2-3. The English Drama. A survey of
the development of the drama in English from the be-
ginnings to the close of the nineteenth century; a
study of the most interesting plays representative of
this development. Both aspects of this course will be
treated from the point of view of their human inter-
est and general cultural significance. Prerequisites,
English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3. Three hours.

English 331-2-3. English and American Poetry
since 1890. A survey course which stresses esthetic
and social movements in the poetry of this period. The
principal personalities in contemporary verse are con-
sidered. Prerequisites, English 211-2-3 and 381-2-3.
Two hours.

English 341-2-3. Prose Fiction. This course will com-
prise consideration of the antecedents of the English
novel, the reading of representative novels of the
eighteenth century, the study of novels that represent
the tendencies in nineteenth- and twentieth-century
fiction, and an examination of masterpieces that are
important independently. The purpose of this course
is to orient the student in his voluntary reading of
fiction, as well as to acquaint him with the historical
and critical aspects of this type of literature. The
novel will therefore be treated as an art form, as a
social document, and as a revelation of personality.
Prerequisite, English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3. Three
hours.

English 361-2-3. Shakespeare. A brief consideration
of the development of the English drama before
Shakespeare ; an intensive study of at least five plays
by Shakespeare. Prerequisites, English 111-2-3 and
211-2-3. Three hours.

74 Oglethorpe University

English 371-2-3. The Short Story. Prerequisites,
English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3. Three hours.

English 381-2-3. American Literature. Those as-
pects of our literature and its history which are cover-
ed in this course are : the colonial writers and the de-
velopment of early American literature; the litera-
ture of the Revolution and of our national develop-
ment; the most prominent writers and movements in
American literature of the last two generations. Pre-
requisites, English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3. Three hours.

English 421-2-3. Methods in English Grammar.
All qualified students who propose to teach in the
graded schools or the high schools should elect this
course. Prerequisites, English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3 or
the consent of the dean. Three hours.

English 461-2-3. English Poetry of the Nineteenth
Century. After a brief survey of the pre-romantic
writers and some consideration of the individual con-
tributions to poetry by Blake and Burns, the chief at-
tention of this course will be directed to those poets
who have made the nineteenth century notable in Eng-
lish poetry. This course is required of all seniors who
take the: English major. It should be elected by ad-
vanced, qualified students who desire a distinctly cul-
tural course or who expect to teach. Prerequisites,
English 111-2-3, 211-2-3, and three additional hours
of English. Three hours.

English 471-2-3. Methods in Research. For majors
in English and Library Science.

English 521-2-3. Modern Drama. This course offers
a comparative study of European and American drama
which has been written in recent years. It includes
Ibsen and proceeds from him as the originator of in-
fluences that have largely affected the drama of his
successors. Plays will be studied in class, or read col-

Oglethorpe University 75

laterally, which are representative of the recent de-
velopments in the theatres of Norway, Germany,
France, England, Ireland, and the United States.
Three hours.

The Course in Journalism

English 221-2-3. Technique of Journalism. A pro-
fessional course designed for students of journalism.
It is elective for juniors and seniors in other schools
who satisfy the dean of this school, in advance, con-
cerning their qualifications. In addition to editing,
this course will cover writing of the news story, the
magazine article, and the special feature story. Five
hours.

Attached Courses

The courses listed below have been placed for the
present in the School of Literature and Journalism.
Some of these are required subjects in the curricula
of various schools; others are elective. Particular at-
tention is drawn to the fact that no one of these
courses may be substituted for any course listed under
"English" above.

English 141-2-3. English Bible. The Old Testament.
Two hours.

English 231-2-3. Theory and Practice of Public
Speaking. This course is designed primarily as a prep-
aration for and an aid to practical speaking on all
kinds of formal and informal occasions. This course
is required of juniors in the School of Literature and
Journalism. It may be elected by juniors and seniors
in other schools who receive, in advance, the permis-
sion of the dean. One hour.

76 Oglethorpe University

English 251-2-3. English Bible. The New Testament.
The study will include the mastery of the history con-
tained in the Bible, an analysis of each book, and such
other matters as are required for the proper under-
standing of the work. It will not be treated from a
sectarian point of view, or as mere history or litera-
ture. 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.
An effort will be made to give students the proper
defense of seeming difficulties in the Bible, both for
their own benefit and in behalf of their ability to meet
objections of unbelievers. Two hours.

English 351-2-3. Mythology and Etymology. The

first two terms will be devoted to the study of Myth-
ology, so that readers of English literature may be
able to understand allusions to classical stories.

The third term 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 Latin or Greek is
required for entrance. This course is required for
sophomore students in the School of Literature and
Journalism. Two hours.

Play Production 111-2-3. Three hours.

Radio Play Production. Three hours.

future work in such professions as Agriculture, En-
gineering, Medicine and Dentistry, and to prepare for
industrial occupations not yet organized into profes-
sional groups.

It hopes, through the medium of its courses, to build
a true perspective and its corollary, a sane judgment
of relative values attainments which are basic in any
liberal culture.

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. They
are also urged to take shorthand and typewriting.

100 Oglethorpe University

School of Education

H. J. Gaertner, Dean

Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in
Education

The School of Education is both an undergraduate
and a graduate school. A number of graduates from
such schools in Oglethorpe University as well as other
colleges have entered the teaching profession. Much
of the work being psychological and humanistic, the
discipline of this school is a preparation for various
lines of work beside that of teaching. The school is
a good preparation for dealing with all forms of hu-
man contact sides of life work. We especially rec-
ommend the courses in shorthand and typewriting to
be taken as part of the electives in the third or
fourth year or earlier by students preparing for sec-
retarial careers, or commercial teaching in high
schools.

Students in the Department of Education upon en-
tering the University Division (third and fourth
years) or previously thereto, are required to desig-
nate the subject which they expect to teach, which
thereby becomes their major subject. From nine to
twelve year hours of college work are required of
them in said subject for graduation, or, by special
permission of the Dean of the School of Education, in
two closely related subjects.

Oglethorpe University 103

Adult Education Division

The School of Adult Education has been and is giv-
ing a variety of courses to meet the needs of teachers.
These will vary with the needs and wishes of the
student. In each case, the student's course will be
planned by the Dean of the School and the Registrar.

In order to conform to the measurement of most
schools of this type, Oglethorpe University in Septem-
ber, 1939 adopted the "course system". A course is
equivalent to 1 2-3 year hours, 3 1-3 semester hours,
or 5 quarter hours.

Most of the subjects are given in half courses, for
the convenience of the students. The time consumed
by each half course is two clock hours per week. By
taking two half courses each term a teacher will earn
the three courses or five year hours allowed by the
State Department of Education to teachers in serv-
ice. To earn this amount of credit (3 courses) she
will spend four clock hours per week in the classroom
for three terms.

For the A.B. in Education degree, the student must
fulfill the following requirements:

Education 6 courses (10 year hours)

English 3 courses ( 5 year hours)

Foreign Language 3 courses ( 5 year hours)

Science 3 courses ( 5 year hours)

Social Science 3 courses ( 5 year hours)
(History, Sociology Eco-
nomics, Geography, and
Political Science)

Electives 18 courses (30 year hours)

Total 36 courses or 60 year hours

To meet our residence requirement, a minimum of
nine courses or fifteen year hours must be taken with
Oglethorpe University. No exception is ever made to
this requirement.

There are two very important rules to which all

104 Oglethorpe University

Adult Education students must conform. They are
as follows:

1. Not more than one-fourth of the credit required
for a degree may be secured by extension or corre-
spondence work. The total amount of credit allowed
on an A.B. degree by extension and correspondence
work combined, is nine courses or fifteen (15) year
hours.

2. Teachers in service are allowed only three courses
(5 year hours) per year during the time they are
actually engaged in teaching. Therefore, no student
in the Adult Education Division of the University will
be given credit for more than three (3) courses or
five year hours for the scholastic year unless he or
she has filed with the Registrar a written statement
that exempts the student from the enforcement of
this rule. Unless written proof that they are entitled
to additional work has been filed in the Registrar's
office, Adult Education students will automatically re-
ceive credit for only three courses during the scholas-
tic year, and only the three courses will be transferred
to the Certification Department. This, of course, does
not apply to summer school work.

Requirements for Master of Arts Degree

The Master's degree is based on the Bachelor's de-
gree. To enter our graduate school, a student must
have received a Bachelor's degree from a standard in-
stitution. A formal application for entrance to the
graduate school must be filled out and filed in the
Registrar's office before any graduate courses can be
taken.

The minimum requirement for the Master's degree
is nine courses or fifteen year hours, together with
an approved thesis. If the student prefers, however,

Oglethorpe University 105

he may take two full courses in lieu of a thesis. In
that case, he must complete eleven (11) full courses
for the M.A. degree.

Of the nine courses required for the M.A. degree,
five and one-half courses must be in the major su
ject, and three and one-half may be elective. If "tne" -
student chooses two additional courses in place of a
thesis, these courses may be elective.

All work for the Master's degree must be of senior
college or graduate level; that is, courses numbered
three hundred or above. Students taking senior col-
lege courses along with undergraduate students will
be required to do additional work for graduate credit.

Two courses (3 1-3 year hours) of graduate level
may be transferred from other standard institutions.

Expenses

Charges for tuition will be at the rate of $9.00 per
half course, or $18.00 for a full course. All charges
are payable in advance. However, arrangements can
be made to divide this into two payments per term.

Summer School

Oglethorpe University offers a summer quarter di-
vided into two terms of five and one-half weeks each.
Classes meet six days per week.

Two courses each term or four courses during the
quarter of eleven weeks is the regular amount of cred-
it earned. A course is equivalent to 1 2-3 year hours
or 3 1-3 semester hours. By these plans teachers
combining the year's work and summer school attend-
ance will be able to receive their degree in a reason-
able length of time.

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

Oglethorpe University il9

Appreciation of Music 511-2-3. An inquiry into the
evolution of music from the earliest times to the pres-
ent. The plan contemplated is a combination of his-
tory, musical form, and appreciation. While the his-
torical phase is interesting, and an understanding of
musical form appeals to the intellectual and scientif-
ic, the main object is to cultivate increased apprecia-
tion of its beauty and of its power as an instrument
of expression. The course will introduce simple and
primitive forms with explanations and illustrations.
This will be followed in proper sequence by the folk
songs, the dance form, the suite, grand opera, ora-
torio, and the symphony. Attention will be given to
instrumentation and the development of the modern
orchestra. Illustrative material will be supplied by
the living voice, the piano, and the recently perfected
forms of electrical recording. The course will be
semi-laboratory in its presentation. Those taking the
course for college credit may present it as an elective
for any degree, if approved by the dean of the school.

School of Physical Education

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

John William Patrick, 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 and coaches in other
schools, colleges and universities and in Y. M. C. A.'s
and the Army.

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

The science courses listed are designed especially
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 demon-
stration. 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
microscopic slides. Weekly quizzes are supplemented
by written tests given upon the completion of some
general division of the subject.

History and Principles of Physical Education 121-2-
3. Three lectures weekly throughout the year. This

122 Oglethorpe University

course deals with the history of physical education in
Europe and the Orient. The course also deals with
the history of physical education in America. Pri-
marily the aim of this course is to relate the story
of physical education from the earliest times to the
modern. The political, social, and religious condi-
tions which determine the presence or absence, or
the character of physical education are discussed at
length. Three hours.

Varsity Coaching Football, basketball, and base-
ball 111-2-3. Three lectures weekly throughout the
year. Classes conducted by Varsity head coaches in
respective departments. Fundamentals, strategy, psy-
chology pertaining to athletics, the art of coaching
and the uplifting of character are stressed. Three

Intramural Athletics

In order to extend the benefits of organized ath-
letic competition to all students of Oglethorpe Urii-

124 Oglethorpe University

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 department 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
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 sports throughout the
school year assures each participating student of
physical exercise every day of the school year. Too
much emphasis cannot be placed on this particular
phase of athletics.

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 way 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 him 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
Sports 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
of work during the preceding year.

Oglethorpe University 127

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, permit 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 tuition, which sum is remitted for
the purpose of paying hospital, doctor, dentist bills,
etc., in case of injuries or treatments made necessary
by their participation in any game and personal as-
sumption of the risks thereby involved.

Historiographic Museum

This museum is now being established at Ogle-
thorpe. It is the first photographic museum in the
world. It is devoted entirely to the history of the
United States as illustrated by still, sound, and motion
pictures. The collection is already started at the
University, and a building will be built to house it and
an organization set in motion to carry on its work
permanently. This will provide the greatest collection
of contemporary American history available any-
where.

Athletics Hermance Field

The magnificent generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
P. Hermance in giving to Oglethorpe an Athletic Sta-
dium, makes feasible the development of all forms 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 policy of Oglethorpe University includes the
care of the physical life of our students as a matter
of large importance. Regular instructon, 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 begun and a section is finished providing
accommodations for five thousand spectators 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
institution to add a crew to its list of athletic sports.

130 Oglethorpe University

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
works in Literature, History and Science, with many
valuable reference works in special departments. The

Oglethorpe University 131

private libraries of Dr. Aldrich 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 1939-40 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. During the last three
years daily preaching services have been held for
one or two weeks in the Oglethorpe Auditorium.

Oglethorpe Coat-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 future under the terms of the following resolu-
tion unanimously adopted by the Faculty of the uni-
versity, 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-

132

Oglethorpe University

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."

Roll of Honor

Students who make an average of 90 in any term are placed
on the Roll of Honor, and their names are read out in the
Tuesday Public Assembly.

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
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

134 Oglethorpe University

to our students for swimming, boating and fishing,
the physical advantages offered by Oglethorpe Uni-
versity 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 believed to be the safest, most beautiful and most
efficient college or university buildings in the South-

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 climate, convenient of access to
the entire nation over its many lines of railway,
known everywhere as the center of Southern activ-
ities, she draws to herself as to a magnet the great
minds of the nation and the world. Hither come lec-
turers, musicians, statesmen, evangelists, editors,
teachers and officials of the United States. An intel-
lectual atmosphere created by such conditions and the
frequent opportunity of contact with these leaders in
all branches of human activity, offered frequently
to our students, give Oglethorpe University an ad-
vantage of position and of opportunity which she will
cultivate to the utmost. Facilities for hearing and
meeting the great musicians and authors and public
speakers and the leaders in all spheres of intellectual
activity are offered our students. The tremendous

Oglethorpe University 135

influence of such contact upon the young lives com-
mitted to us will be felt in their increased ambition
and redoubled determination to perform, themselves,
their duty to their race and their God.

Silent Faculty at Oglethorpe

It is not going too far to say that the aesthetic
tastes 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 those 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 without 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 defec-
tive.

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

136 Oglethorpe University

THE CRYPT OF CIVILIZATION

Something new in the history of the world has
taken place at Oglethorpe University. This is the
conception and inauguration of the most unique arch-
eological project in the history of mankind. It is also
the integration and correlation of all known facts re-
garding our civilization today, and the preservation
of the result of this research for the people who in-
habit this world sixty centuries hence.

As we look back into history, throughout the whole
known world, at no time in any country or in any
civilization has there been a conscious attempt to pre-
serve all the known facts regarding any nation or
people so that it may be passed on to posterity. Even
if any person had conceived of a project of this kind
prior to the last fifty years it would have been im-
possible to have carried it out. Only modern ad-
vancement in science has made this possible, and only
one person in the known history of the world ever vis-
ioned this stupendous task.

It was not until in 1935 that Dr. Thornwell Ja-
cobs, the president of Oglethorpe University, while
teaching his Cosmic History class suddenly realized
the above fact. At first he put it aside as imprac-
ticable of accomplishment owing to the tremendous
labor involved, but the idea grew upon him, and he
finally decided to carry it out. In 1936 in consulta-
tion with Orson Munn, of the Scientific American, a
beginning was made, and the Scientific American an-
nounced the project and invited suggestions from sci-
entists and laymen for carrying out the work.

The Bureau of Standards at Washington was
consulted immediately for details of procedure. Dr.
Jacobs decided to place the time for the opening of
the "Crypt of Civilization", as he named it, as far in

Oglethorpe University 137

the future as our written records go into the past,
namely, six thousand years, which would make the
time for the unsealing A. D., 8113.

The Literary Digest, then edited by Mr. Pendray,
also announced the project and gave considerable
space to the story, which so impressed Editor Pendray
that he later "sold" the idea to the Westinghouse Com-
pany for the "Time Capsule", which was a miniature
edition of the Oglethorpe Crypt idea and which was
buried under the Westinghouse Building at the
World's Fair.

Active preparation was commenced by Dr. Jacobs
to begin a collection of material for the Crypt. At
this time the New York Times published an article on
the Crypt idea, and this came to the notice of a sci-
entist living in Salem, Ohio, T. K. Peters, who wrote
Dr. Jacobs, making some suggestions in regard to
material that should be included in the Crypt, and in
regard to the microfilming of books, which was his
particular hobby. Dr. Jacobs invited him to pay a
visit to Oglethorpe, which he did, and in conference
at the University Dr. Jacobs decided he was the man
to take over the work.

As a result, Peters brought his microfilm camera
down to Oglethorpe and, working with Dr. Jacobs, he
began a collection of books and other material. Dur-
ing the two years which have elapsed since that be-
ginning, a complete and scientific plan of procedure
has been adopted and is being carried out. With the
assistance of the American Library Association a list
was prepared of all of the most authoritative books in
the world, anticipating in a measure Well's World En-
cyclopedia, for it is a compendium of everything that
civilized man knows today.

These microfilmed books, records, pictures, etc.,

138 Oglethorpe University

are preserved in glass containers in which inert gases
have been substituted for the air. These glass con-
tamers are, inturn, placed inside transite (asbestos)
and stainless steel cases. The Crypt was sealed on
Saturday, May 25th, 1940 to remain inviolate for
6,166 years.

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

Oglethorpe University 139

this city of remarkable gatherings, was the assemb-
ling of approximately two hundred of the represen-
tative women of the city of Atlanta at the home 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 committee 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 committees 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

140 Oglethorpe University

donated or bequeathed to the University through the
Woman's Board.

Officers and Chairmen of the various committees
for the year 1939-40 are as follows :

President, Mrs. Hugh Bancker; Vice-President,
Mrs. J. D. Cromer; Recording Secretary, Mrs. I. R.
Carlisle; Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. Edgar Wat-
kins, Jr.; Treasurer, Mrs. B. F. Ulmer; Chairman Ex-

Charter of Oglethorpe University

Oglethorpe University was chartered May 8, 1913. This
charter was amended February 23, 1925, August 1, 1932 and
October 20, 1939.

The following charter takes from all prior charters the
powers now existing:

GEORGIA, )
FULTON COUNTY.)

To the Superior Court of said County:

The petition of Jas. W. English, Sr.; Frank M. Inman,
John K. Ottley, Thornwell Jacobs, Edgar Watkins, Hoke Smith,
W. L. Moore, Hugh K. Walker, E. G. Jones, James R. Gray
and Hugh Richardson, all of Fulton County in the State of
Georgia, and George W. Watts of Durham, North Carolina;
J. T. Anderson, Cobb County, and J. W. Hammond of Spald-
ing County, Georgia, respectfully shows:

1.
That they desire for themselves and their associates and
successors to be incorporated and made a body politic under

Oglethorpe University 159

the name and style of OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY for
a period of Fifty Years, from and after October 20, 1939,
with the right within or at the end of said time to obtain
further extensions as now or may be authorized by the laws
of the State of Georgia.

2.

(A) 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 prop-
erty in different Counties of this State.

(B) No Board, Committee, or other authority of Ogle-
thorpe University shall ever have the power by any form of
contract to create a lien on the real properties of the Univer-
sity now or hereafter owned. Provided, however, the Board
of Trustees may extend, renew or otherwise secure by appro-
priate lien any indebtedness now constituting a lien on any
of the properties of the University and on any property here-
after acquired on which there is a lien at the time of acquisi-
tion.

3.
That said corporation shall be granted the power to re-
ceive by gift, donation, purchase or bequest property of what-
soever kind or character and wheresoever situated; to receive
and hold funds as trustee, such funds to be used in such man-
ner as may be provided in the trust granting same; to estab-
lish 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 appropriate
Governing Board as provided in paragraph 4 hereof; to en-
force good order, receive donations, make purchases, and ef-
fect all alienations of realty and personalty, not for the pur-
pose of trade and profit, but for promoting the general de-
sign of such institution, and to look after the general interest
of such establishment; 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 times and under such circum-
stances as the Governing Board may determine; to hold, use
and invest such funds as may belong to it or be purchased
by or granted, given or bequeathed to it, and to hold as trust
funds any property that may be placed in trust for scholar-
ships or other purposes connected with education, and gen-
erally to have corporate powers as may be suitable and not
inconsistent with the laws of this state, nor violate of private
rights.

4.

The governing authorities of the Corporation shall be
(1) a Board of Founders; (2) a Board of Directors, and (3)
a Board of Trustees.

(A) The Board of Founders shall consist of all who are

160 Oglethorpe University

now members of the Board of Directors, for which provision
is hereafter made, may from time to time elect.

The President of the University shall be ex officio a
member of this Board. The officers of this Board shall be
a President, three Vice-Presidents, a Secretary, and a Treas-
urer, and the present officers shall continue in office until
their successors are elected by the Board. To be eligible for
election to this Board, one must have given or had given in
his behalf to said University not less than the sum or value
of One Thousand ($1,000.00)) Dollars.

Said Board shall meet regularly at least once each year
at such time as may be determined by its President, or fail-
ing such determination, by the President of the University;
and it may meet oftener on the call of either of such Presi-
dents. Notice of all meetings must be given in writing, mail-
ed or delivered to the member's last known address, at least
ten (10) days theretofore.

(B) The Board of Directors shall have general authority
over all the affairs of the University, except as authority is
specifically herein given another Board.

Such Board of Directors shall consist of not more than
twenty-one (21) members, seventeen (17) of whom shall be
elected by the Board of Directors from the members of the
Board of Founders. The Presidents of the Founders and of
the University, and the Secretary and Treasurer of the Foun-
ders shall be ex officio members. The Board of Directors
shall have as its officers a President, a Vice-President, a Sec-
retary and a Treasurer. Vacancies on the Board of Directors
shall be elected by such Board and hold office at the will of
the Board. The elective members of the Board shall be elected
approximately one-third (1-3) each from Fulton County, the
Southern States and from outside the Southern States. The
Secretary and Treasurer shall be those who respectively hold
such offices on the Board of Founders. The members of the
present Executive Committee shall constitute the Board of
Directors until by by-law or resolution the Board of Direc-
tors otherwise provide. The Board of Directors shall, through
its President, report annually, or at its option oftener, its ac-
tions to the Board of Founders.

The Board of Directors shall meet regularly once each
quarter, at dates to be fixed by by-law. Special meetings may
be called by its President, or by five (5) or more members.
Five (5) days notice of all meetings shall be mailed or other-
wise given to each member.

The Board of Directors shall choose an Executive Com-
mittee composed of its President, the President of the Univer-
sity, and not less than one (1), nor more than three (3)
other members of the Board of Directors. Such Executive
Committee shall have the right and duty to perform all the

Oglethorpe University 161

functions of the Board of Directors when such Board is not
in session. It shall report its actions to the next meeting of
such Board. Upon reports being made the Board of Directors
may, at its next meeting, if any member of the Executive
Committee has objection to any action of the Committee, re-
view and approve, set aside or change such Committee ac-
tion.

(C) The Board of Trustees shall be the present Trustees
and their respective successors when elected by the Board of
Directors. The Directors shall have power to elect the Trus-
tees and prescribe by by-law their tenure of office and the
number of not less than five (5) nor more than nine (9), of
which number the President of the University, the President
and Secretary of the Board of Directors, shall be ex officio
members, the President of the Board of Directors being ex
officio Chairman.

The Board of Trustees shall meet upon the call of its
Chairman, upon five (5) days notice. Such notice may be
given orally or in writing. No one shall be eligible to mem-
bership on the Board of Trustees unless he is a member of
the Board of Directors and also a member of a Presbyterian
Church.

The Board of Trustees shall have sole power over the
sale and purchase and to fix the terms thereof of real prop-
erty, used or for use by the University as a campus or build-
ing, not held as endowment, and to authorize the execution
of mortgages or other liens.

All contracts of the University shall be executed by the
President or Chairman of the authority having control over
the subject-matter and countersigned by its Secretary in the
name and under the seal of the corporation.

5.
The OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY has no capital stock
and all property owned or hereafter acquired by it is to be
held for the purposes of an educational university. Petition-
ers desire that the OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY when in-
corporated shall have the right to sue and be sued, to plead
and be impleaded, to have and to use a common seal, to make
all necessary by-laws and regulations; and to do all other
things that may be necessary for the successful accomplish-
ment of its purposes as a university; with the right to execute
notes and bonds as evidence of indebtedness incurred or which
may be incurred in the conduct of the affairs of the corpora-
tion, and to secure the same, except as limited above, by
mortgage, security-deed, bond or other form of lien under ex-
isting laws as well as under any other laws that may here-
after be passed.

6.
They desire for said corporation the power and authority

162 Oglethorpe University

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 immunities
as are incident to like corporations or permissible under the
laws of Georgia.

WHEREFORE, petitioner prays for amendments of its
charter as hereinbefore stated and that petitioner have all the
powers in its original charter and amendments thereto except
as changed by this amendment, and all the powers contained
in this amendment and in the laws of the State of Georgia,
or that may hereafter be in force.
