(SItj* Prayer of (JDgleitjorp? Hmtttrattg

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 down 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 threshold in
honor and my lintels in love. set thou my
floors in the cement of unbreaking friendship and
may my windows be transparent with honesty.
Lead Thou unto me, Lord God, those whom Thou
hast appointed to be my children, and when they
shall come who would learn of me the wlsdom 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 hlm 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 THAT EVER 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 EARTH OF MY CAMPUS
SHOUT FOR JOY AS IT FEELS THE TREAD OF THOSE WHO
MARCH FOR GOD. ALL THIS I PRAY OF THEE; AND YET
THIS, MORE: THAT THERE MAY BE NO STAIN UPON MY
STONES, FOREVER. AMEN

THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNIVERSITY*

The details of the management of Oglethorpe University
are handled by an Executive Committee of twenty-one men.
The University is owned and controlled by a Board of Direc-
tors. This General Board of Directors and Founders meets
at least once each year, at commencement time, on the uni-
versity grounds near Atlanta, to inspect the institution, to
review all matters of large importance in the University, and
to give directions to the Executive Committee which is elect-
ed by them and from their number, and which will look after
the details of management cf the Institution between the
meetings of the Board of Founders. Each member of the
Board represents a gift of one thousand dollars or more to
the University.

Nothing more ideal has ever been proposed in the man-
agement of an institution. It is already in operation and
its perfect practibility is largely responsible for the marvel-
ous success of the University.

Prospective students will not fail to note the quality of
these men, representing the thousands of men and women
whose sacrifices and prayers have consummated this fine
purpose. As representatives and governors of the In-
stitution they will take pleasure in giving any enquirers
information as to the aims and progress of the University.

18 Oglethorpe University

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 distances
which must be traveled by stage or on horseback, suggested
the building of a similar institution under the auspices of
Presbyterianism in the South. The movement began with
the spring meeting of Hopewell Presbytery in the year 1823,
and eventuated in the founding of a manual 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 Institu-
tion. Old Oglethorpe College was thus the first denomina-
tional college or university between the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans south of the Virginia line, and, of a right, claimed to
be the Alma Mater of all that brilliant company of institu-
tions 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 are world-famous. Among these were Joseph
Le Conte, the great geologist; James Woodrow, the brilliant
and devoted Christian; Samuel K. Talmadge, the eminent
administrator, and many others. It is, perhaps, the chief
glory of old Oglethorpe that after four years of instruction
she graduated Sidney Lanier in the famous class of 1859 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,

Oglethorpe University 19

remarked to a friend that the greatest moral impulse of his
life had come to him during his college days at Oglethorpe
through the influence of Dr. Woodrow. Her other eminent
alumni include governors, justices, moderators of the Gen-
eral 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 endownment was in Confederate
bonds, and her buildings, used as barracks and hospital ,were
later burned. An effort was made to revive the institution
in the 70's and to locate it in Atlanta, but the evils of recon-
struction days and financial disaster made the adventure im-
possible and unsuccessful, and after a year and a half of
struggle the doors were closed for the second time.

Only nine years have passed since the campaign to refound
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 a million dollars
as the result of unusual and self-sacrificing liberality en the
part of over five thousand people.

The corner stone of Oglethorpe University was laid on
January 21, 1915, with her trustful motto engraven upon it:
"Manu Dei Resurrexit (By the Hand of God She has Risen
from the Dead.)

THE OPENING, SEPTEMBER 20, 1916

Oglethorpe University opened her doors in the Fall of 1916.
After fifty 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 granite, trimmed with limestone,
covered with slate and as near fireproof as human skill can
make it, was ready for occupancy in the Fall of 1916, when
her first class gathered on her beautiful campus on Peach-
tree Road. A faculty equal to that of any cognate institu-

20 Oglethorpe University

tion in the country has been formed. The work of raising
funds and new construction goes steadily on. And all of this
has been done in the midst of financial disaster that darken-
ed the spirit of the whole nation, and against the evil influ-
ences of a colossal war, which caused the very joints of the
world to gape.

THE ROMANCE OF HER RESURRECTION

The story of the resurrection of Oglethorpe reads like a
romance. Beginning only nine years ago with a contribu-
tion of $100.00 a year for ten years, 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-see-
ing educational leaders, who wished to erect a certain
high type of institution in this splendid metropolis. The
story of how dollar was added to dollar during a 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
has been told in cities, towns and country all over the South
from Galveston, Texas, to Charlottesville, Virginia, and from
Marshall, Missouri, to Bradentown, Florida; the splendid
triumph of the Atlanta campaign staged in this city just
eight years ago; all this 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 $75,000.00. They are the Founders of the University;
they belong to the great 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 illustra-
tions. (See Frontispiece.)

It will be seen that the architects and landscape artist

Oglethorpe University 21

spared no pains to make it one of the really beautiful uni-
versities of America. The architecture is Collegiate Gothic;
the building material is a beautiful blue granite trimmed
with limestone. All the buildings will be covered with heavy
variegated slates. The construction is of steel, concrete ,brick
and hollow tile. The first building is the one on the right
of the entrance seen in the foreground of the bird's-eye view.
The new building, given by Mr. and Mrs. Lupton, our be-
loved benefactors, is the one with the tower just opposite on
the left of the entrance. The total cost of construction of the
buildings shown in the above design with the landscape work
required, will be approximately $2,000,000. The building
plan will be followed out in its entirety.

HER SPIRITUAL AND INTELLECTUAL IDEALS

But it is not so much the magniiicient exterior of the in-
stitution 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 have resolved to form a
faculty and adopt a curriculum that will be of the highest
possible quality, their thought being excellence in every de-
partment. They will take the superb traditions of the old
Oglethorpe and add the best of this present age to them.
Doubtless Oglethorpe will be a big university some day, but
she is already a great one, and it is greatness rather than
bigness which her founders crave most for her.

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 alphabeti-
cally, by states. That Book will be accessible to every stu-
dent 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

22 Oglethorpe University

daughters in this generation. The Book is not yet complete,
because the work is not yet finished, and each month is add-
ing many to this role of honor, whose names will thus be
preserved in the life and archives of Oglethorpe University
forever.

STATE MEMORIAL BUILDINGS AND
PROFESSORSHIPS

The contributions made by the Founders of the University
residing out of the city of Atlanta are being segregated and
separately recorded. The Board of Directors has in mind
the establishment of one or more memorial professorships or
buildings by each Southern State. Thus the local patriotic
sentiment and loyalty will be worked into the life of Ogle-
thorpe and each of her students will feel that a part of his
own commonwealth is set down on her campus.

CLOCK AND CHIMES

In the tower of the new building given by Mr. and Mrs-
J. T. Lupton, will be installed a clock and chimes, the gift of
Mrs. H. Frederick Lesh, of Newton Center, Mass. There
will be two dials to the clock, and they will be illuminated
at night. It is interesting to note that this will be the only
tower clock in Atlanta and the only chimes on any college
campus in Georgia.

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 demand of a really great institu-
tion 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 im-
parting their ideals and knowledge, and intellectual acquire-
ments adequate for their department. The most important
dement in education is the creation in the student of an in-
tense yearning for and delight 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
Jniversity now has a corps of teachers unsurpassed in any
nstitution of its age and size. The names are given in the
)rder of their election.

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 specialists 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. The
instruction began in September, 1916, with the Freshman
Class of the Collegiate Department; the Sophomore Class
was added in 1917; the Junior Class in 1918, and the Senior
Class in 1919.

Students who are looking forward to university work are
invited to correspond with the President, in order that they
may be putting themselves in line for the advanced courses
which are to be offered.

Adequate Library and Laboratory facilities are being
provided as the need for them arises. Free use will be
made of the city of Atlanta, in itself a remarkable laboratory
industrial and scientific life, whose museums, libraries and
municipal plants are at the disposal of our students for ob-
servation, inspection and investigation.

The first unit of the building plan is the equivalent in
capacity of four buildings, each 50 by 60 feet, three stories
high. Of these, two are dormitories, one, lecture halls,
laboratories and offices, and the fourth, dining hall and re-
fectory. There is also a central heating plant in addition.
A new building has been recently erected, to be used as a
dormitory. The library has been transferred to this build -
; ng; and indoor athletics are carried on here. The generosity
of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Lupton has made possible, also, the
immediate erection of another building, which will contain
the Library, President's Office, Assembly Hall, Lecture
Rooms, Central Clock and Chimes, Open Air Observatory
and Founders' Room and Tower.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

In the Schools of Liberal Arts, Science, Business
Administration, Literature and Journalism

The requirement for entrance to the Academic Schools
of Oglethorpe University is fifteen units from a school of
good standing. Students offering twelve units may be ad-
mitted on condition. In either case the candidate must pre-
sent three units in English and two in Mathematics. In the
School of Liberal Arts, three units of Latin must, also, be
offered; in the School of Science two years of language work
are required, one of which must be Latin (this may be
made up after entrance); in the School of Literature and
Journalism one year of Latin is required, which may be
made up after entrance. For removal of conditions see
page 38.

A unit represents a year's study in any subject in a sec-
ondary school, constituting approximately a quarter of a
full year's work.

The authorities of Oglethorpe University are fully ac-
quainted with the educational situation in the South and in
making their entrance requirements somewhat above rather
than below the standard, they have not lost sight of the
frequent insufficiencies of preparation of prospective students
brought about by the inadequate High School facilities. It
is the purpose of the Uuiversity to make its degrees repre-
sent high attainment, but to furnish such facilities for
students that this attainment will be fairly simple and easy.
It is not our purpose by the adoption of specially high en-
trance requirements to drive away any students from our
Institution. Adequate arrangements will be made for aiding
any student who may be behind in his preparation in so far
as such aid is consistent with the best ideals of college work.

38 Oglethorpe University

request. An application blank will be found at the close of
the catalogue. It is well for the prospective student to apply
as early as possible. A blank for High School Certificate
may be obtained by writing to the Registrar.

Students who wish credit for college work done elsewhere
must file with the Registrar a certificate from the institution
in which the work was done. The institution must be one
that is recognized by the Faculty of Oglethorpe University,
and the work must be satisfactory to the professor of that
department.

REMOVAL OF CONDITIONS

1. Entrance Conditions Students admitted to par-
tial standing in the Freshman Class may remove their en-
trance conditions by passing entrance examinations in the
additional subjects necessary, provided such examinations
are passed within two years after admission to the University.

2. Entrance conditions must be removed before the open-
ing of the third college year. No student will be permitted
to register for any subject of his third year until his en-
trance conditions are removed.

3. Students entering from other colleges will not be ad-
mitted to advanced standing in any class until all entrance
conditions have been removed.

4. College Conditions A student whose term grade
in any subject lies between 70 and 60 per cent shall have
two re-examinations and no more. These examinations for
Fall and Winter Term conditions, will be set at the end of
the succeeding term, and at the beginning of the next session-
Examinations for removal of Spring Term conditions wil

Oglethorpe University 39

be set at the beginning and end of the Fall Term of the next
session.

5. A student whose term grade in any subject lies be-
tween 60 and 40 per cent shall have one re-examination and
no more at the beginning of the next session.

6. A student failing in both re-examinations in the first
case or in the one re-examination in the second case will
take the subject over in class.

7. A students whose term grade in any subject lies below
40 per cent will not be entitled to a re-examination, but will
be required to take the subject over in class.

8. The summer term may be devoted to work prepara-
tory to condition examinations, as deficient students will not
be permitted to carry extra work during the nine months'
session.

9. Conditioned students absent from the regular condition
examination must present an excuse satisfactory to the pro-
fessor in charge of the subject or receive a zero for the ex-
amination. When an excuse has been accepted a special ex-
amination will be held for which a fee of two dollars will be
charged, payable to the Registrar.

10. Any student having eight term conditions at the be-
ginning of the session will be required to take the class
over in all subjects.

11. No student with more than three term conditions
may be permitted to register as a member of the next high-
er class, but shall be considered a member of the same class
as the year before, until the number of his unrernoved con-
ditions shall not exceed three.

12. Conditions, whether due to failure, to incomplete
work, or to absence, must be made up within a year or the
subject repeated in class.

courses in the four undergraduate Classes of four schools
leading to the customary Academic degrees. The degree
of Bachelor of Arts (B. A.) in the Classics will be con-
ferred upon those students satisfactorily completing a four
years' course as outlined below, based largely on the study of
the "Humanities". The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Science
will be conferred upon those students who satisfactorily com-
plete a four years' course largely in scientific studies. The
degree of Bachelor of Arts in Literature will be given to
those students who complete a course including special work
in languages, literature and journalism. The degree of
Bachelor of Arts in Commerce will be conferred upon
those students who satisfactorily complete a full four years'
course in studies relating particularly to business adminis-
tration and industrial life.

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

In general, it may be suggested that those students pre-
paring to enter such professions as the Ministry or Law,
will choose the B. A. course in Classics; those looking for-
ward to Medicine, Dentistry and other Scientific work, the
B. A. course in Science; those expecting to enter the literary
and journalistic field, the B. A. course in Literature, and those
who intend to spend their lives in the business world, the
B. A. course in Commerce.

While each of these courses is so shaped as to influence
the student towards a certain end, colored largely by the
type of studies it includes, yet each course will be found to
include such subjects of general culture as are necessary to
the education of a life as distinguished from a living.

GRADUATE SCHOOL

It is the purpose of Oglethorpe University to develop a
thoroughly excellent Graduate School, offering courses in
all departments leading to the Doctor's degree in Science
and Philosophy. In supplying this need, which has for a
long while been acutely felt in the South, the management
of the University will be content with only the very highest
grade of work and facilities.

Courses leading to the Master's and Doctor's degrees in
certain departments will be found outlined elsewhere in this
catalogue under the appropriate department heading.
These degrees are based on that of Bachelor of Arts of
Oglethorpe University or of some other approved institution.
In general, it may be said that the degree of Master of Arts
will be given for one year of additional study in graduate
subjects more or less related to each other. The degree of
Doctor of Philosophy requires at least three years of grad-
uate work. But neither degree is guaranteed at the end of
a fixed period of time. A certain amount of work must be
accomplished, and the quality of it must be such as to satis-
fy the Professors concerned and the whole Faculty. It is
required that the candidate for Ph. D. demonstrate by ex-
amination not later than the end of his first year his ability to
read German and French, and the student must have complet-
ed the under-graduate work in the subject to which he
wishes to give his chief attention. A thesis must be sub-
mitted, showing original work.

In this connection, the prospective student will be inter-
ested in learning that all Professors chosen as the heads of
departments in Oglethorpe University must have obtained
the highest academic degree offered in that department.
This fact is mentioned in order to indicate the earnest de-
termination of the Board of Directors of the University that
her Faculty shall include only men of the highest intellect-

Oglethorpe University 49

al attainment as well as men of great teaching power and
strong personal character.

The President of the University will be pleased to answer
any inquiries as to graduate courses to be offered during
1921-22.

PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS

The steady drift of the wisest opinion of the educational
world looks toward the union of academic with professional
education. The broadening effect of association of profes-
sional students with other classmen on the university cam-
pus, as well as the valuable opportunity for contact with
academic work, renders this connection highly desirable.
It is the purpose of the University to enter the field of pro-
fessional education as quickly as funds are secured to en-
able us to do so adequately. Schools of Engineering, Ar-
chitecture, Dentistry, Law and Medicine will be established
as opportunity offers, but no work will be undertaken that
cannot be executed with the same quality of matter and
form that is offered in the best institutions of our country:

SPECIAL COURSES

Students who are looking forward to Medicine, Law or
Engineering and who do not desire to study for an Aca-
demic degree are allowed to take such courses as will lead
to their professional work. Such students must present at
least twelve units for entrance; of these four and one half
are required: English (3) and Mathematics (l 1 /^)- The
following courses are suggested:

PRE-MEDICAL: First Year Physics (1), Chemistry (1).
German (1), English (1) (elective), Bible (1) (elective).
Second Year Chemistry (2), Biology (1), German (2),
French (1), English (2) (elective), Bible (2) (elective).

PRE-LEGAL: First Year English (1), Bible (1), History

50 Oglethorpe University

(1), Latin (1), Mathematics (1).

Second Year English (2), History (2), Modern Lan
guage(l), Bible (2), and one elective.
PRE-ENGINEERING: First Year Mathematics (1), Physics
(1), Chemistry (1), English (1) (elective), Bible (1)
(elective).

Second Year Mathematics (2), Physics (2), Modern
Language (1), Bible (2) (elective).

PRE-PROFESSIONAL WORK

The attention of the prospective student should, however,
be clearly called to the fact that each year finds it more
necessary for the professional man to have a thorough
foundation for his professional studies, and the professional
schools are becoming more strict in their requirements for
entrance. Particularly is this the case in Medicine, where
the best medical colleges require a diploma from a standard
college for entrance. We would strongly advise our stud-
ents to study the suggestions made on page 39 and have
their college diploma safely in hand before they enter their
professional studies.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION FOR 1921-22

The policy of the Board of Directors of the University
has been and will be to "hasten slowly" in the work of or-
ganization of the . Institution. They, therefore, began the
first year's work with one class, the Freshman. They are
now ready to offer the full work of the undergraduate
classes.

The courses offered for the year 1921-22 are as follows:

THE PRESIDENT'S COURSE
Once a week the President has lectured to a class of

Oglethorpe University 51

advanced students on "Cosmic History" and the purpose
has been an interpretation of the body of modern discovery
and thought from a theistic view point. The following sub-
jects are included in the course : Geology, Chemistry, Biol-
ogy, Embryology, Paleontology, Archaeology, Geography,
History, Astronomy, The Great Sciences Who are They?
All the students are required to attend and take notes, and
are examined at the close of the course.

The course in English Bible extends over two years; it is
required for the B. A. degree in all four Departments, and
must be pursued by every under-graduate student.

The first year is devoted to the Old Testament, the sec-
ond to the New Testament, together with the intervening
period. The study will include the mastery of the history
contained in the Bible, an analysis of each book, and such
other matters as are required for the proper understanding
of the work. It will be treated not from a sectarian point
of view, nor as mere history or literature. The aim will be
to impart such a knowledge of the subject as every intelli-
gent man should possess, enabling him to read his Bible with
pleasure and profit.

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

Text^-Books Bible 1. English Bible, Moorehead's
Outline Studies in the Books of the Old Testament.

Bible 2. Vollmer's Life of Christ, Kerr's Introduction
to New Testament Study.

52 Oglethorpe University

This course will be followed in the Junior and Senior year
by Psychology, Ethics, History of Philosophy, and Eviden-
ces of Christianity.

Psychology. An elementary course in Theoretical Psy-
chology, with some collateral study in Philosophy. Re-
quired for all Juniors. Three hours a week.

Text-books. Pillsbury's Essentials of Psychology; collat-
eral reading in the library.

ory of Philosophy, Wright's Evidences of Christianity.

ENGLISH

Professor Routh. Mr. T. V. Morrison.

The work in English in the first two years is designed to
give students a mastery of their own tongue for speaking
and writing, and to familiarize them with the best English
literature. The elective courses, given mainly for Juniors
and Seniors, provide intensive study in special fields. The
summer courses, though not identical with the winter
courses, are planned along similar lines, and give correspond-
ing credits. This will enable a student to complete a portion
of his requirements for a degree in the summer.

For graduate students work is offered leading to the de-
gree of M. A. More advanced work in the graduate school
has been planned, but is not offered at present.

English 1. Composition. Practice in speaking and
writing, with collateral study of masterpieces of modern
prose. The chief object of the course is to teach the stud-
ent to arrange his thoughts clearly and present them with
force. He is also encouraged to enlarge his vocabulary and

Oglethorpe University E3

his stock of ideas by the reading of good essays. All Fresh-
men. 3 hours.

Text-Books: MacCracken and Sandison, Manual of Good
English, Carpenter and Brewster, Modern English Prose.

English 2. English Literature. A study of the best Eng-
lish poetry and prose, with special attention to style and to
philosophic content and to the historical development of lit-
erature. The course is designed to complete the student's
general study of literature and at the same time introduce
him to the specialized Junior and Senior courses. All Soph-
omores. 3 hours.

Text-Books: Lieut. Col. Holt, The Leading English
Poets from Chaucer to Browning; any good edition of
Shakespeare.

English 3. Journalism. The course covers the collecting
and writing of news. It teaches the student what is news,
how it is collected, and how presented. It also provides
special training in the rapid writing of forcible English that
does not need revision. Juniors and Seniors and such Soph-
omores as have shown special ability in writing. 3 hours.

Text-Books: Ross, The Writing of News; Cunliffe and
Lower, Writing of Today.

English 4. Argumentation and Logic, with their practi-
cal application in debate. This course is especially recom-
mended to students who expect to become ministers of the
Gospel or lawyers. Practice in collegiate and intercollegiate
debating will be had in connection with the course. Three
hours during the Winter Semester. One unit of credit.

English 5. Drama. First part, Modern Drama. A
study of the texts and of the technique. Second part,
Shakespeare. 3 hours.

Text-Book: Dickinson, Chief Contemporary Dramatists;
Archer, Play -Ma king; Any good edition of Shakespeare.

54 Oglethorpe University

Graduate Course in English

Courses may be offered in Anglo-Saxon, Chaucer, Shake-
speare, and Advanced Theory of Composition, this last in-
cluding the theory and history of criticism. These courses
will be arranged to suit the needs of the students, but will
be so given as to enable the student who has a college de-
gree to obtain the M. A. degree in two years, or by inten-
sive study in a shorter time. Supplementary courses in
other departments will be also required of the candidate fcr
the degree. Some eighteen thousand volumes and pam-
phlets of English Scholarship recently added to our library
will be available beginning September, 1921.

GREEK

Professor Nicolassen.

Three years of Greek will be offered in the undergraduate
classes, together with a preparatory class for those who are
unprepared for Greek I.

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

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

Greek 1. The preparation for entrance into this class is
not so much a matter of time as of thoroughness. The
student is expected to know the ordinary Attic inflections
and syntax, to have read about one book of the Anabasis,
and to have had considerable practice in translating English
into Greek. The use of accents is required.

Oglethorpe University 55

A part of the work of this class consists of the minute
study of the verbs, their principal parts, synopsis of tenses,
and the inflection of certain portions.

Written translations of English into Greek are required
once a week. On the other days a short oral exercise of
this kind forms a part of the lesson; so that in each recita-
tion some practice is had in translating English into Greek.

Text-Book. Xenophon's Anabasis (Goodwin and White),
Memorabilia, Adams's Lysias, Goodwin's Greek Grammar,
Pearson's Greek Prose Composition, Myers's Eastern Na-
tions and Greece, Liddell and Scott's Greek Lexicon, (un-
abridged). Three times a week throughout the year.
Elective.

Greek 2. In the first term Demosthenes will be read; in
the second, Herodotus; in the third, Homer. The subject
of Phonetics is presented and illustrated by chart and mod-
el of the larynx showing the position of the vocal organs.

Text-Books. Demosthenes On the Crown (Humphreys),
Herodotus (Smith and Laird), Homer's Iliad (Seymour),
Demosthenes and Herodotus (Ancient Classics for English
Readers), Church's Stories from Homer, Fowler's Greek
Literature. Three times a week throughout the year.
Elective.

Greek 3. The time of this class will be divided between
prose and poetry. After the study of Thucydides and Plato,
the reading of Sophocles will be taken up. The life of the
ancient Greeks will also be considered.

Text-Books. Thucydides (Morris), Plato (Forman), Soph-
ocles' Oedipus Tyrannns (Earle), Thucydides and Plato
(Ancient Classics for English Readers), Church's Stories
from the Greek Tragedians, Gulick's Life of the Ancient
Greeks. Three times a week throughout the year.
Elective.

Oglethorpe University
LATIN

Professor Nicolassen.

Latin 1. For entrance into this class the student is ex-
pected to have read the usual amounts of Caesar, Cicero
and Vergil, as set forth under the head of Entrance Units.
He must also be able to translate English into Latin with
some facility. Livy, Cicero de Senectute and Sallust's Cati-
line will be studied in this year. A brief history of Rome
will also be included. Prose composition, both oral and
written, will be carried on throughout the year.

Text-Books. Livy XXI, XXII (Greenough and Peck),
Cicero de Senectute, Sallust's Catiline. Allen and Green-
ough's Latin Grammar, Myers's History of Rome, Har-
pers' Latin Dictionary. Three times a week throughout
the year. Required for B. A. in Classics. Students who
lack the required number of units in Latin, may substitute
the same number of units in Greek.

Latin 2. The studies of this class will be in Cicero's
Letters, Horace and Plautus. A course in Latin Literature
will also be given; Mackail's Latin Literature. Three
times a week throughout the year. Elective.

Latin 3. This class will begin with Terence, and then
take up Tacitus and Juvenal. Ancient Roman life will be
considered in this part of the course; Johnston's Private
Life of the Romans. Three times a week throughout the
year. Elective.

Teachers' Course. A course of instruction will be given
for teachers in and near Atlanta. The aim will be to sug-
gest methods for beginners and for classes in Caesar, Cicero
and Vergil. Certain departments of the grammar will be
discussed, e. g., the Subjunctive Mood, the Conditions,

Oglethorpe University 57

Indirect Discourse; scanning will be illustrated, and atten-
tion given to topics which have caused difficulty to teach-
ers. Suggestions will be made as to the best means of help-
ing pupils to acquire a good vocabulary in Latin. The
mode of procedure and the subjects treated will depend
somewhat on the personnel of the class.

The work will be undertaken if as many as ten persons
offer themselves. This class will probably meet on Satur-
days.

Graduate Course for Special Students. Persons who
are teaching or otherwise occupied during the week and
who would like to do some graduate work in Latin or Greek
by coming on Saturdays, should communicate with the
Professor.

Graduate Courses in Latin and Greek

Those who are thinking of taking the graduate 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 requirements for entrance into
these courses are given elsewhere in this catalogue, under
the head of Graduate School. Following is a sketch of the
course that is proposed for this department.

The work may be considered under three heads, each
running through three years:

I. Literary.

II. Scientific.

III. Practical.

I. Literary, a. The aim will be to read a large amount
of Greek. The first year will be devoted to a study of
Homer, Hesiod and the Lyric poets.

*.$

58 Oglethorpe University

In the second year the Attic Literature wil! be considered
under the four heads of History, Philosophy, Oratory and
Drama. One of these will be the main subject of study
with some attention to the other three.

The third year will be devoted to the Alexandrian and
Graeco-Roman periods, with the study of such authors as
Polybius, Plutarch and Lucian.

In each author studied a limited portion will be selected
for close, critical study; there will also be a more rapid read-
ing of other parts. The Seminary method will be used, the
student from time to time acting as teacher and conducting
the discussion under the guidance of the professor.

Some practice in Greek and Latin Composition will be
carried on each year.

b . In Latin the procedure will be on the same general
lines as in Greek. The first period will cover the early
Roman writers, especially Plautus and Terence. The frag-
ments of the early writers will also be studied.

The Golden Age consists of two parts, the Ciceronian
period and the Augustan period. The work of Cicero as an
orator, as a philosopher and as a letter writer will be con-
sidered, and some attention will be paid to his chief contem-
poraries. In the Augustan age such authors as Vergil,
Horace and Livy will receive most attention.

In the third period the chief authors will be Martial,
Tacitus and Juvenal. In this time the language begins to
decline and the process will be traced. Grandgent's Vulgar
Latin, Lindsay's Short Historical Grammar (second edi-
tion, Oxford), Bennett's Latin Language.

II. Scientific. (1). History of Classical Scholarship.

The development of the subject will be traced from
ancient times, through the Middle Ages, to the Renaissance;
then will follow a study of the contributions made by the

Oglethorpe University 59

modern nations. In each period stress will be laid upon the
individual scholars who were most noted for their know-
ledge and interest in the classics.

Peck's History 'of Classical Philology (MacMillan) will
be used as the text-book, with frequent reference to San-
dys's History of Classical Scholarship, 3 Vols. (Cam-
bridge University Press).

(2). Textual Criticism. The student will be made ac-
quainted as rapidly as possible with the general principles
of the subject by the study of the chapters on Recension
and Emendation in F. W. Hall's Companion to Classical
Texts. (Clarendon Press, Oxford). These principle will
then be applied to the study of some particular author.

(3). Epigraphy.

(a). Greek. The reading of select inscriptions will be be-
gun at an early day, some from facsimiles. E. S. Roberts'
Introduction to Greek Epigraphy (Cambridge University
Press) will be used as a general guide. The students should
also possess Kern's Inscriptiones Graecae (Marcus et Weber,
Bonn). The method of making squeezes of inscriptions will
be demonstrated, and will be practised by the members of
the class. Omitted in 1921-22.

(b). Latin. In Latin Epigraphy some attention will
first be paid to the Latin Alphabet and other preliminary
matters. Practice will then be given in reading selected in-
scriptions. Egbert's Latin Inscriptions (American Book
Company), or Sandys's Latin Epigraphy (Putnam) will be
used. Omitted in 1921-22.

(4). Palaeography. Greek and Latin MSS. will be
studied in the different kinds of alphabets, capital, uncial,
minuscule, and the methods of dating MSS. by these differ-
ences will be pointed out. Thompson's Introduction to
Greek and Latin Palaeography (Clarendon Press, Oxford)

60 Oglethorpe University

will be the text-book. De'Cavalieri and Leitzman, Speci-
mina Codicum Graecorum Vaticanorum (Bonn) will fur-
nish additional specimens.

Some attention will also be paid to the study of papyri.
Omitted in 1921-22.

(5). Phonetics. The physical basis of speech will be set
forth by charts and papier mache model of the larynx,
showing the position and action of the vocal chords and
other organs. Greek and Latin Phonetics will then be taken
up in detail.

Soames's Introduction to the Study of Phonetics (Mac-
millan). Omitted in 1921-22.

(6). Archaeology. A sketch will be given of the de-
velopment of the subject; then the architecture, sculpture,
vases and coins of Greece and Italy will be considered.

Fowler and Wheeler's Greek Archaeology (American
Book Company.) Goodyear's Roman Art.

III. Practical. The student will be required to attend
one of the undergraduate classes, and from time to time will
conduct the recitation in the presence of the professor, in
order that he may gain some experience in teaching. This
together with the Seminar, is the laboratory in language
study.

In Latin the following course will be offered for the M.
A. degree in the session of 1921-22: Vergil's complete works;
Vergil in the Middle Ages; History of Classical Scholarship,
Textual Criticism.

FRENCH

French 1. This is a class for beginners, but the idea is
to advance as rapidily as possible to a reading knowledge of
the language. Careful attention will be given from the first
to pronunciation.

Oglethorpe University 61

Text-books. The New Frazer and Squair French
