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 WiSDOM OF
THE YEARS, LET THE CRIMSON OF MY WINDOWS GLOW

WITH THE Light of the World. Let them see, O
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 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 TKEE; 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 General Board of Trustees and Founders meets at least
once each year, at commencement time, on the university
campus near Atlanta, to inspect the institution, to review all
matters of large importance in the University, and to give
directions to the Executive Committee which is elected by
them and from their number, and which attends to the
details of management of the Institution between the meet-
ings of the Board of Founders. Each member of the Board
represents a gift of two thousand dollars or more to the
University, or an annual gift of not less than $100.00.

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

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 quaHty of
these men, representing the thousands of men and women
whose sacrifices and prayers have consummated this fine
purpose. As represen fives and governors of the Institution
they will take pleasure in giving any inquirers information-
as to the aims and progress of the 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 and Scientist; Samuel K. Talmadge, the
eminent administrator, and many others. It is, perhaps, the
chief glory of old Oglethorpe that after three years of in-
struction 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

Oglethorpe University 19

to the wars. Shortly before his death, Lanier, looking back
over his career, 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, modera-
tors of the General Assembly, discoverers, inventors and a
host of honest, industrious and superb laborers for the high-
est ideals of humanity.

Oglethorpe, "died at Gettysburg," for during the war her
sons were soldiers, her endowment 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 ten 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 on the
part of over five thousand people.

The corner stone of Oglethorpe University was laid on
January 21; 1915, with her trustful motto engraved 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

20 Oglethorpe University

her first class gathered on her beautiful campus on Peach-
tree Road. A faculty equal to that of any cognate institu-
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 ten 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 citie>, 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 gieat 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.)

Oglethorpe University 21

It will be seen that the architects and landscape artist
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
vv^ith limestone. All the buildings will be covered with
heavy variegated slates. The construction is of steel, con-
crete, 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 beloved 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 magnificient 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 lorm 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 Founder's 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

22 Oglethorpe University

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,
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 Oglethoope 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 pat-
riotic sentiment and loyalty will be worked into the life of
Oglethorpe 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, is installed a clock and chimes, the gift of
Mrs. H. Frederick Lesh, of Newton Center, Mass. There
are two dials to the clock, and they are illuminated at
night. It is interesting to note that this is the only, tower
clock in Atlanta and the only chimes on any college campus
in Georgia. On the largest of the bells, which weighs a
ton, is the following inscription:

We were given by
Grace Josephine Lesh
That the hours at Oglethorpe
Might be filled with
Music and Harmony.

Oglethorpe University 23

THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY

The Board of Directors of Oglethorpe University, reahzing
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
element in education is the creating 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
University now has a corps of teachers unsurpassed in any
institution of its size and age. The names are given in the
order 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.

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
of industrial and scientific life, whose museums, libraries
and municipal plants are at the disposal of our students for
observation, 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-
ing; 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 Ofifice, Assembly Hall, Lecture
Rooms, Central Clock and Chimes, and Founders' Room and
Tower.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

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

The requirements for entrance to the Academic Schools
of Oglethorpe University is fifteen units from a school of
good standing. Students offering tfelve units may be ad- ' O
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 35.

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 inadequate High School facilities. It
is the purpose of the University 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.

Oglethorpe University 35

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

36 Oglethorpe University

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 student whose term grade in any subject lies below
40 per cent will not be entitled to 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 shall
be charged, which shall go to the library of that department.

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 unremoved 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.

Oglethorpe University 37

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION AND REQUIRE-
MENTS FOR DEGREES

In the session of 1922-23 Oglethorpe University will offer
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 ol woik 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 com-
pleted 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-

46 Oglethorpe University

ual attainment as well as men of great teaching povv^er and
strong personal character.

The President of the University will be pleased to answer
any inquiries as to graduate courses to be offered during
1922-23.

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 academ-
ic 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 (1%). The fol-
lowing 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 1 ,

Oglethorpe University 47

Latin 1 , Mathematics 1 .

Second Year English 2 , History 2 , Modern Lan-
guage 1 , Bible 2 , and one elective.

Pre-Engineering: First Year Mathematics 1 , Physics
1 , Chemistry 1 , English 1 'elective), Bible 1 (elec-
tive).

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

PRE-PROFESSIONAL V/ORK

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 students
to study the suggestions made on page 37 and have their col-
lege diploma safely in hand before they begin their profes-
sional studies.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION FOR 1922 23

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 under-graduate
classes.

The courses offered for the year 1922-23 are as follows:
THE PRESIDENT'S COURSE

Once a week the President has lectured to a class of ad-

48 Oglethorpe University

vanced 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 subjects
are included in the course: Geology, Chemistry, Biology,
Embryology, Paleontology, Archaeology, Geography, His-
tory, Astronomy, The Sciences Who are They? All the
students are required to attend and take notes, and are ex-
amined at the close of the course.

BIBLE AND PHILOSOPHY

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 second
to the New Testament, together with the intervening pe-
riod. 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 Out-
line Studies in the Books of the Old Testament.
Bible 2. Vollmer's L//e o/ C/^m^, Kerr's Introduction to
New Testament Study.

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

ENGLISH

Professor Routh. Mr. Cahoon.

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 familarize 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 modem
prose: The chief object of the course is to teach the stu-
dent to arrange his thoughts clearly and present them with
force. He is also encouraged to enlarge his vocabulary and
his stock of ideas by the reading of good essays. All Fresh-
men 3 hours.

50 Oglethorpe University

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

Graduate Course in English

Courses may be offered in Anglo-Saxon, Chaucer, Shake- i
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 intensive
study in a shorter time. Supplementary courses in other
departments will be also required of the candidate for the
degree. Some eighteen thousand volumes and pamphlets
of English Scholarship recently added to our library will
shortly be available for use.

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 present-
ed 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.

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-Books: Xenophon's Anabasis (Godwin and White),
Memorabilia, Adam'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.

Teacher's 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 department of the grammar will be
discussed, e. g., the Subjunctive Mood, the Conditions,
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 Course in Latin and Greek

THE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

COMMERCE AND FINANCE

Undergraduate Course Leading to the Degree of Bach-
elor of Arts (B. A.) in Commerce

Graduate Courses leading to Advanced Degrees.

The School of Business Administration, Commerce and
Finance is an undergraduate-graduate school, one of the
professional divisions of the University. Instruction is
therefore directed toward professional education rather than
narrow technical drill. Entrance requirements for the un-
dergraduate work are the same as for the School of Liberal
Arts, except that Ancient Language is not required. Mod-
em Language, especially Spanish or French, is strongly ad-
vised. Shorthand and typewriting are neither required nor
later counted toward a degree, but are strongly recommend-
ed.

The graduate work is based upon the Bachelor's Degree
from an accredited institution.

Economics Its laws and principles with special reference
to American conditions. The course presents a general
survey and is designed to serve as an introduction to later
and more intensive study of the problems of industrial
society.

Economic and Commercial Geography A study of re-
sources and industries as influenced by geographic condi-
tions. The geography of the more important commercial
products of the farm, range, forest, mine, factory, and sea;
continental and oceanic trade routes; great commercial na-
tions.

American Government and Politics Analysis of the
structure and workings of the government in the United
States, local, state, and national; the organization and activi-
ties of state and federal administration, with the fundamen-

Oglethorpe University 63

tal legal and political principles governing it. This course
alternates with Comparative Government.

Accounting Principles An elementary course based on
the use made of financial statements in business organization
and control. The student is familiarized, through practice
and discussion, with the entire accounting process, begin-
ning with the voucher and ending with the report. The
last part of the course is devoted to the consideration of the
typical financial statements and their analysis from the
standpoint of the various interests involved. The method
of instruction is a combination of lectures and discussions,
supplemented by laboratory practice.

Business Communication A study of the communicating
function in business and of the technique which is common
to all forms of business communication; discussed in its
psychological, rhetorical, graphic, and typographical aspects.
The practice work is organized around Material, Attention,
Interest, Understanding, Belief, Action and Good Will. It
includes the assembling of the date from letters, editorials,
and business articles.

This course has a twofold purpose: (1) to give the infor-
mation about the communicating activities of business and
the skill in the presentation of business material which all
business workers need, and (2) to provide the foundation
necessary for an advanced study of correspondence and
advertising problems.

Business Psychology Business problems from the psy-
chological point of view. (1) Psychological facts and prin-
ciples applicable to the conduct of business operations: (2)
possibilities and limitations of psychological method and
approach to business problems. Among the topics discussed
are the hiring and instructing of employees, vocational
adjustment, group efficiency, advertising and selling.

64 Oglethorpe University

Financial Organization of Society A study of the
nature and work of the various types of financial institu-
tions in the modern business world, the forces that have led
to their development, and their relation to the organization
of industrial society. The principal forms of financial
institutions covered are: coinage and monetary systems;
credit; commercial banks; savings banks; bondhouses; trust
companies; stock exchanges; the various forms of co-opera-
tive associations; also a brief study of the functions of the
corporation and the insurance company as financial institu-
tions. Each of these institutions plays its own part in the
industrial system, and together, in their many interrelations,
they make up the financial structure of society.

Labor Conditions and Problems A general survey
analytical, causal and historical, of the main forces and
factors which give rise to modern labor conditions and pro-
blems and which, therefore, must be taken into consideration
in the attempted solution of specific labor problems, together
with a brief discussion of social programs, organized labor,
and labor legislation. This course is designed to serve as
the foundation for the special courses in this field as well
as to meet the needs of those who wish only a general study
of labor problems. Its main divisions are the genesis, evo-
lution, and character of present-day labor problems; the
material progress and present condition of the wage-earning
class, wages, hours of work, unemployment, property hold-
ings, and distribution of income, among other things, being
considered; points of view and social programs; the philoso-
phy, policies, and methods of organized labor, arbitration
and social insurance.

Risk and Risk Bearing in Modern Industrial Society
A detailed study of the speculative character of modern
industry, with analysis of the various sources and kinds of
risks and the various ways of meeting risk. Special study
of insurance: 1, life; the kinds of companies, their organiza-

Oglethorpe University 65

tion and operation; the kinds of policies and the calculation
of premiums; insurance investments and dividends. 2, Prop-
erty insurance, companies and their methods of operation;
the determination of rates; policy conditions; the work of in-
spection bureaus; underwriters' laboratories: 3, The prob-
lems of buying and selling insurance; regulation of insurance
by the state; state insurance.

Marketing 1 Raw Materials A survey of the method
and problems connected with the marketing of raw ma-
terials. A study is made of farm products, mineral prod-
ucts, forest products, and sea products, and the physical and
geographical environment of the productive regions to dis-
cover their commercial problems. The course falls into
three general divisions: (1) the commodity, (2) the markets,
(3) the trade organization. Special study is made of the
problems of the middlemen, transpoi-tation, warehousing,
organized exchanges and produce markets, market news,
financing the market and market price. These problems
are analyzed in classroom discussion as they appear in the
marketing of four or five great staple commodities. Theory
and practice are balanced by visits to warehouses, cold stor-
ages, produce markets, and other specialized markets.

Each student is required to select a commodity and trace
it through its entire marketing process. The information
for these papers is secured through government bulletins,
market reports, technical and scientific literature, and by
interviews and observation. Special emphasis is placed
upon first-hand information.

Marketing 2 Manufactured Goods In the problems
and methods of marketing manufactured products, the
same general divisions are made: 1 the commodity, 2 the
market 3 the trade organization. The classroom discus-
sion will consider the general problems confronting a mer-
chant with goods to sell; organization of a business; duties
and responsibilities of the sales manager, the advertising

66 Oglethorpe University

manager, and the advertising agency; application of scientific
principles to commercial analysis; location; analysis of a
commody; purchasing problem, stock plans; analysis of
market; analysis of trade organization, department store,
chain-store, mail-order house, co-operative store; price policy,
price maintenance, credit; opportunities for extending the
market; selection and organization of the sales force; selec-
tion of advertising mediums; financing a sales and advertis-
ing organization; co-ordinating the selling forces. The aim
is to define and outline the general principles of commercial
analysis, which includes the work of both salesmen and ad-
vertising men. The literature that is available on these
problems is assigned for reading.

As in Course 1 above, the student is required to make
first-hand investigation and written reports of the problems,
in local establishments.

Marketing III: Foreign Trade The marketing pro-
blems arising are: theories of foreign trade; character and
volume of trade available for foreign commerce; contact
with the foreign market, commission house, forwarding
agent, manufacturers' agent, indent merchant, traveling
salesmen, export departments; foreign correspondence; ad-
vertising in the foreign market; combining for foreign trade;
prices in foreign trade, foreign exchange, credit, price quo-
tations; transportation; marine insurance; tariffs; merchant
marine; individual foreign markets. The point of view is
that of an inland city like Atlanta. The problems are con-
ditioned by this fact.

Marketing IV: Problems of Marketing and Mer-
chandising. A wide range of problems of manufacture
and distribution.

As in courses I and II, each student w'll select a single
commodity for detail study. The investigation will be
developed into a term paper dealing with the selected pro-
duct in the various foreign markets, with the effects of the

Oglethorpe University 67

European war, and with the future possibilities. An at-
tempt will be made to clear away the obscurities surround-
ing the subject of foreign trade by following a commodity
through to its destination, with samples of all the necessary
documents.

Economic Development of the United States The rise
and evolution of the institutions, the structure and the organi-
zation of industrial society which have been developed in
the effort of the American people to supply their economic
wants; an analysis of the way in which these institutions
and this organization function, and their present day prob-
lems; how economic laws have dominated, together with the
result consequent on a failure to regard these laws; the ex-
tent to which economic conditions have influenced our
social and political history as well as its reaction upon our
economic life.

The main topics covered are: population, immigration,
westward movement, public-land policy, agricultural, mining
manufactures, labor conditions, slavery, internal improve-
ments, railroads, domestic and foreign commerce; tariff pol-
icy, merchant marine, money, banking, crises, public reve-
nues, and expenditures.

of statistics as a means to scientific study and interpretation
of social and economic life: the general characteristics of
the statistical method, the course and collection of data,
errors and approximation, classification and frequency, dis-
tributions, averages, tabulation, graphic presentation, index
numbers.

Social Control of Business Social control has lagged
behind rapidly developing modern industry. This course
aims to give understanding of the various means of control
now struggling to reassert thems-^lves; their common under-
lying principles and their application in different fields. Its
topics will include the kinds of useful work; the general
presumption in favor of private enterpriser; its shortcomings
as an organizing force, and the weakening of individual's
positions in a free-exchange economy resulting from (1)
massing of technical capital, (2) growth of specialized know-
ledge before which common intelligence is at a disadvantage,
(3) conflicts of interests which the law of property and con-
tract cannot fully harmonize, and (4) other causes. Chief
emphasis will be laid on the problems common to trusts, rail-
roads, and public utilities, arising from fixed capital, untraced
expenses, increasing returns, and the resulting tendenciec to
monopoly.

Advanced Economics and the Development of Indus-
trial Society The structure, institutions, and operation of
industrial society; medieval industrial society and the evolu-
tion of modern capitalistic industry; private-exchange co-
operation; the pecuniary organization of society and its re-
sulting institutions; specialization and interdependence; the
significance of technology; speculation industry; the worker
under a wage system in capitahstic machine industry; con-
centration in large-scale production, in ownership of wealth,

course.

Commerce of South America Commerce relations be-
tween the United States and South America. Most of the
countries are discussed separately because of individual con-
ditions, but the subject matter is organized under four gen-
eral heads: 1 development of commerce, 2 present status
of South American commerce, 3 factors affecting com-

70 Oglethorpe University

merce with South America, 4 commercial prospects in
South America.

Industrial Administration I Designed primarily for
those students expecting to enter the manufacturing field.
It presupposes the courses Industrial Society, Business Ad-
minstration. Statistic, Accounting, and some ability to un-
dertake independent investigation. The course deals with
the nature and characteristics of the complex problems of
the industrial executive, and systematic methods of such
problems, aiming thus to provide the student with a sense
of relative values and some method for later intensive re-
search on his own initiative. The work is made practical
by independent investigation in factories of various types.

Industrial Administration II A continuation of Indus-
trial Administration I with similar objectives. The more im-
portant "philosophies of administration" which help to
solve the manufacturer's problems; a rapid survey of the
history of industrial engineering; theories, principles, methods
of approach, devices, and their application to various types
of industry. This work is made practical through personal
interviews with men who have developed the more impor-
tant philosophies of administration.

Commercial Law (A three-term course). Ordinarily in
non-commercial affairs the risks incident to ignorance of
the law are not particularly formidable. A working know-
ledge of the rules of the Commercial Law is of practical
value to every citizen, but to the successful business man of
today it is indispensable.

Successful completion of this course will make available
to the student all substantive law courses offered in any law
school. Among the subjects are: Contracts, negotiable in-
strument, agency, partnership, corporations, sales, bailments,
carriers, guaranty and suretyship, insurance, wills, etc.

The case system of instruction is employed.

Oglethorpe University 71

Scientific Management and LABOR.-Laying stress on the
practical application and methods of the most complete and
consistent recent tendencies. The principles of scientific
management and their wide applicability to various manu-
facturing activites. Each student is expected to make first-
hand investigation in one or more factories in Atlanta and
vicinity, exemplifying as far as possible the type of produc-
tion in which he is most interested, studying the problems
of store-handling, routing, tool-room maintenance, cost
keeping, worked material and tool standardization and clas-
sification, in making route charts, and in devising produc-
tion systems.

Industrial Combinations. The conditions in modern in-
dustrial society which have led to the growth of combina-
tions, an analysis of the motives for their formation, the
sources of their power and the elements of their weakness,
the character and extent of any possible social advantages
to be derived from them as well as the disadvantages and
evils which have followed their growth, the attempts at state
and federal regulation in the past, and the question of the
desirable policy and feasible methods of control for the fu-
ture. The subject is treated as a single problem of modern
industrial society, with emphasis on methods of investiga-
tion, analysis, and reasoning essential for the study of simi-
lar problems.

Corporation Finance. A study of the corporation, pri-
marily with reference to its financial management. The
more important topics include financial side of organization
and promotion, amount of capitalization, choice of different
types of securities to be issued, method of selling securities
and raising addition capital, financial policy with reference
to dividend, surplus, accounting practice, etc., insolvency
and reorganization and the problems and methods of social

estate investments; the characteristics of each and their re-
lative fitness to meet the needs of different classes of in-
vestors; methods and sources of information for determin-
ing the value of such investments; general industrial and
financial conditions affecting changes in their value; the in-
stitutions dealing in them and the attempts on the part of
the public to safeguard and regulate investments.

of accounting principles to specific problems. Practical
work in actual audits and devising systems for actual instal-
lation from a large part of the year's work.

Bank Management. A technical ccurse in the internal
problems of bank organization and management. The work
is designed to train not so much for clerical work as for
position of official responsibility. This course alternates
with the Theory of Banking.

Public Finance Public expenditure, budgetary methods,
public revenues, and public debt. The purpose is to give a
working knowledge of government financial institutions as
distinguished from commercial ones; bonds, taxes, borrow-
ing, and the management of national, state, and municipal
debts. (Omitted in 1922-23.)

THE SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL CULTURE

Perhaps the most remarkable single development in the
modern educational world is the possession by our colleges
and universities of complete control of the greatest of all
sports. American college football is the most interesting,
most exciting, most manly, most instructive and most prof-
itable game ever played by men. It, more than any other,
furnishes to its devotees something of the moral equivalent
of war, and such a hold has it taken on the public that they
pour out their tens of thousands of dollars to witness inter-
collegiate games in vast stadia and bowls erected largely for
the purpose at a cost reaching into the millions. It is a
momentous thing for the academic world to have control of
the American equivalent of the Olympic games and the con-
tests of the Arena, and as we watch the never ceasing en-
largment of interest, finance, equipment and importance of
this part of college work it must be perfectly apparent that
:the very life of a college depends and will more and more
depend upon its method of handling this fact which is at
once a challenge and an opportunity.

And, hand in hand with football, go baseball, basket-ball,
boating, track, and indeed the whole physical well-being of
the vast American student-body.

Oglethorpe University 77

Passing by as somnolent those colleges that sidestep the
fact by denying their students the priviledge of intercollegiate
sports and those that permissively decree a Students' Athletic
Association which asumes control of coach, games, and often
of "Faculty Directors of Athletics", we come to those insti-
tutions that face the situation with wide open eyes.

The attitude of Oglethorpe University to all athletics is
based upon the recognition of the physical training of the
human body as a college study.

It is presumed that a matter of such overwhelming im-
portance to college life as athletics and of such transcendent
interest to the public that it commands their time and purses
at will, is a matter worth studying seriously and deserving
to be ranked with Greek or Poultry Keeping.

Therefore Oglethorpe University has founded her School
of Physical culture.

Its purpose is two-fold: to train, protect and develop the
bodies of all the students of the University and to offer a
special school where those who deserve it may receive spe-
cial training, equipping them for positions as Physical Direc-
tors in Y. M. C. A's, in the Army, and in other schools, col-
leges and universities.

As a school for the special preparation of students for
positions as physical directors and coaches in Y. M. C. A's,
the Army and other schools and universities, a regular cur-
riculum has been arranged offering instruction in the follow-
ing subjects, the completion of which will lead to an appro,
priate certificate or degree:

1. Physiology: A first-year course in the study of the
human body, one hour per week Fall, Winter, Spring and
Summer Terms. Required of all Freshmen. Prerequisite
for all courses enumerated below. Includes studies in San-
itation, Hygiene and First Aid.

Dr. Armstrong

2. Mass Athletics: A study of methods used in the A.
E. F., Play Athletics, Study of muscles, their development
and health. Study of various development systems. Three
hours per week. Required of all students who do not elect
courses 3 10.

Mr. Anderson

3. Track Study and practice of all track exercise, run-
ning, jumping, vaulting, discus and javelin throwing, hurd-
ling and relay race. Three hours per week. Elective.

Country Club are used in this course, this privilege being
granted to members of this class upon the payment of a
nominal fee of $23.00 each annually, covering greens fee,
locker rent and special instruction fee. Fall, Winter, Spring
and Summer Terms.

Mr. Beckett.

8. Tennis: Study and practice. Fall, Winter, Spring
and Summer Terms. Three hours per week.

Profs. Routh, Gaertner, and Maxwell

13. Arts and Science Group Comprising such electives
form courses offered in the Schools of Arts and Sciences,
Literature, and Commerce as may be elected to complete
requirements of S. I. A. A., for eligibility in intercollegiate
games.

An appropriate letter will be given all students making
the University team in any of the above classes, 3-10
inclusive.

Any student successfully completing all courses, 1-13 in.
elusive, will be accorded a certificate or diploma in proportion
to the quantity and quality of his work.

Every human being should be taught to play with his
fellow-beings. Every student should have daily exercise.
These two simple but fundamental axioms are the basis
for all work in this department.

The munificent gift of fifty thousand dollars by Mr. and
Mrs. Harry P. Hermance to Oglethorpe University for an
athletic field has made possible the immediate inauguration
of this plan, which is founded upon the study from a college
standpoint of psychology, hygiene, sanitation, first aid work,
etc. It further emphasizes the necessity of careful medical

80 Oglethorpe University

supervision of all athletics and the adaption to each indiv-
idual studen,t of special forms of exercise.

One of its most important features is the requiring of
every student to take some form of physical exercise daily
under proper medical or tutorial guidance. In this way those
who need it most would be most advantaged, and the chief
failure of the athletic program of our average American col-
lege would be obviated, for it is a notorious fact that most
of our institutions develop a small number of trained ath-
letes in football, baseball, basket ball, etc., while the great
mass of students do little more than sit on the bleachers
and yell.

And the building of the new athletic field given by Mr.
and Mrs. Hermance makes possible the inauguration at
Oglethorpe of a complete system of physical culture for all
students. It will include not only the great athletic features
such as football, baseball, basket ball, etc., but also many
interesting track exercises, discus and javelin throwing, jump-
ing, vaulting and, in fact, all of the various numbers to be
found at our intercollegiate track meets. It is the purpose
of Oglethorpe University as quickly as circumstances may
permit, to enter a team in every number on the program of
such meets, and, in addition, to develop a strong boating
crew on Silver Lake.

The University has been especially fortunate in enjoying
the services of Mr. Frank B. Anderson, one of the best
known coaches in the South, who has had charge of Ath-
letics at Oglethorpe University and who has been advanced to
the directorship of the department of physical culture. Mr,
Anderson has merited and won not only a great reputation
as a coach, but as a clean, fine friend of young men, and
there is no man in the whole of America more loved by his
boys.

We are especially fortunate also in being able to announce
that Mr. Russell Stein famous W. and J. all-American

Oglethorpe University 81

foot-ball star, known as the best man on the best team in
America in 1921, will coach our football team and teach
Course No. 4. The University, of course, is proud of his rec-
ord and happy in the knowledge that our boys will have as
their coach a man who is an expert in that department with
hardly an equal in this country, and those of us who have
charge of the moral and mental life of the University, feel
especially happy in having at the head of this fascinating
department of our work, a splendid outstanding man whose
personal influence with the students will mean so much in
the building of character and the enforcing of every moral
and religious precept. It is not going too far to say that the
teams at Oglethorpe will be as well coached next year and
thereafter as any teams on the American continent, for
there are no two finer men at the head of athletics whether
it be as coaches or as men, than the two who head this
department at Oglethorpe.

To these should be added Mr. Howard H. Beckett, profes.
sional golf player and instructor of the Capital City Club,
who will have charge of course No. 7. Mr. Beckett has a
national reputation as teacher and golfer and his addition
to the faculty of the University is a matter of just pride
and congratulation.

Other instructors will be added as this work may require.

SUMMER TERM

The university year is divided into four terms of approxi-
mately tw^elve vi^eeks each. The Fall, Winter and Spring
terms v^ill continue in operation as heretofore. The Sum-
mer term will offer intensive courses in standard college
subjects and is designed:

1. To enable students to shorten their college courses
from four to three years;

2. To enable any deficient students to make up their de-
ficiencies.

3. To furnish teachers, men and women, with a means
of utilizing their summers in intensive study of selected sub-
jects, thus obtaining college credits leading to academic de-
grees.

All these classes will have the opportunity of securing
college credits leading to academic degrees.

Teachers with the Baccalaureate degree, by attending
three Summer terms, may obtain the Master's degree.

The Summer term will begin June 7th, 1922, and close
the following August 18th. The Fall term will extend from
September 20th, to December 22nd, the Winter term from
January 2nd, 1923, to March 18th, and the Spring term
from March 21st to June 3rd, 1923.

Those who wish to take any of these courses should be
on the ground and ready to begin work the very first day.

The Summer Term at Oglethorpe University offers courses
of equal value with those given in the nine months' session.
The work, however, will be intensive in character, so that
a student can pursue not more than two subjects. By meet-
ing six days in the week for 1^/2 hours each day it is expect-
ed that the classes can cover as much ground, in these two
subjects, as in the longer session.

Greek

Professor Nicolassen.

The following courses will be offered:

1. Beginner's Class No knowledge of the language
will be required for entrance into this class; but it will be
found useful also for those whose training has been defec-
tive. Benner & Smyth's Beginner's Greek Book (Ameri-
can Book Company) will be used as the text-book. The
effort will be made to begin the reading of the Anabasis
in a short time. There will be constant drill and review on
the fundamentals, so as to avoid, as far as possible, the loss
of important material as the work progresses.

2. Anabasis Those who are thoroughly familiar with
the forms may be organized into a class for the rapid read-
ing of the Anabasis. Text-book, Goodwin & White's Four
Books of Anabasis (Ginn & Co.).

3. Homer A class will be formed for the reading of
Homer, if a sufficient number apply for it. Seymour's
School Iliad, Books I--VI (Ginn & Co.), will be used.

4. New Testament. If any persons, beginners or others,
desire to read the New Testament in Greek, they should con.
suit the Professor in advance. Westcott & Hort's New
Testament in Greek (Student's Edition with Lexicon.)
(Macmillan).

Latin

Professor Nicolassen

The summer work in Latin and Greek is intended to be
intensive. The student is supposed to take not more than
two subjects, to have six recitations a week, and to cover
1% hours at each recitation.

High School Pupils who may lack one or two units for
entrance into college, have the opportunity to make up

Oglethorpe University 85

these deficiences by study during the summer. By confer-
ring with the professor in advance, it may be possible for
those v^ho are fully prepared, to do some of their college
w^ork and thus shorten or lighten the work of the regular
session.

College Students who have conditions to remove or
wish to shorten their college course, should consult the pro.
fessor, that arrangements may be made to meet their needs.

A selection will be made from the following subjects ac-
cording to demand.

1. Study of Methods Suggestions will be made for
the teaching of beginners' Latin, Caesar, Cicero and Vergil.
Special attention will be given to the matter of gaining a
vocabulary. Difficulties of teachers will be considered. A
question box will be placed in the recitation room, by which
questions may be presented to the professor; this may also
be done freely during the meeting of the class. Composi-
tion work and sight reading will be considered. Persons
who can do so are advised to read Bennett and Bristol's
The Teaching of Latin and Greek in the Secondary
School (Longman, Green & Co., New York), and The Re-
lation of Latin to Practical Life, by Miss Frances E. Sabin,
(419 Sterling Place, Madison, Wis.) Much help would be
derived from the Classical Journal, $2.50 a year. Member-
ship in the Classical Association of the Middle West and
South ($2.00 a year), secures the Journal without additional
charge. Teachers are especially advised to procure and
bring with them Game's Teaching High School Latin
(University of Chicago Press), or A Hand-book for Latin
Teachers, by Miss Frances E. Sabin, (University of Wiscon-
sin, Wis.). These publications contain many useful sugges-
tions, and will furnish the basis for some additional hints.

2. Caesar Those who wish to read Caesar should
come provided with Allen & Greenough's A^(gz^ Caesar. The
effort will be made to enable members of the class to read

86 Oglethorpe University

with accuracy and ease. Careful attention will be paid to
Indirect Discourse, the Subjunctive, the gaining of a Voca-
bulary.

3. Cicero A class for the reading of Cicero will be
formed if a sufficient number call for it. Allen & Green-
ough's New Edition will be used.

4. Vergil This class is intended both for those who
have never read Vergil and for those who wish a review.
Beside the reading of the text, the subject of mythology will
be consid-ired. The reading of the Hexameter will be care-
fully taught, with constant drill, until the chief difficulties
are mast-ered. Allen & Greenough's Vergil.

French

The summer work in French will be arranged to suit the
needs of those who apply for it. There will be a class
either for beginners or for those who wish more advanced
work.

upward according to the rooming accommodations desired.

SELF HELP

Approximately fifteen per cent of the Oglethorpe student
body are "working their way through college" in whole or
in part.

It is the intention of the authorities of the University to
see that a way is provided as far as possible for the assis-
tance of any student who may be in pecuniary need and yet
desirous of prosecuting his studies at Oglethorpe. A special
Faculty Committee will co-operate with students to that end.

As a general rule it is best for the student that he should
be able to devote all of his time to his academic duties, but
where circumstances require it many students may under-
take various tasks, payment for which materially aids them
in meeting their expenses.

For further information address the President, Oglethorpe
University, Georgia.

SPECIAL LOAN FUND

By the generosity of a good friend who does not wish
his name mentioned, the University is able to lend a limited
sum to deserving students who would otherwise be un-
able to prosecute their studies at Oglethorpe. Further
details upon application.

ATHLETICS HERMANCE FIELD

The munificent generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Harry P. Her-
mance in giving to Oglethorpe the sum of $50,000.00 for an
Athletic Stadium, the finest in the South, makes feasible the

92 Oglethorpe University

development of all forms of field sports, including not only
the great games of football and baseball, but also vaulting,
jumping, discus and javelin throwing, track work, etc.
Physical culture for all students will be required.

A sanely encouraging attitude is taken by the University
toward inter-collegiate athletics, and Oglethorpe University
is acquitting herself well in that sphere of her educational
life.

SILVER LAKE

In addition to those sports common to all well equipped
colleges in the South, Oglethorpe University is the fortunate
possessor of a beautiful lake covering eighty acres located
conveniently to the University campus, with a part of its
shore set aside for a university boat house. This will enable
the institution to add a crew to its list of athletic sports.
The lake is admirably suited for boating, rowing, swimming
and fishing.

The policy of Oglethorpe University includes the care of
the physical life of our students as a matter of large impor-
tance. (Physical and hygienic welfare and instruction
will be a part of the curriculum of the institution.)
Regular instruction, looking to symmetrical development
of the entire man will be given in the Athletic Department
of the University, under competent medical guidance. Spe-
cial attention is at present given to outdoor athletics. Ade-
quate provision is being made for football and baseball
grounds, tennis courts, etc. Work has been begun on the
Hermance Stadium.

UNIVERSITY STORE

One of the interesting features of university life at Ogle-
thorpe is the University Store, managed for the benefit of
the students themselves, under the superintendence of the
Faculty.

Oglethorpe University 93

In the store are kept all the necessary college accessories.
Any ordinary purchase may thus be made most convenient-
ly, as full lines of goods answering the various college re-
quirements are constantly kept on hand.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS ATMOSPHERE

The ability of a college or university to develop worthy
character in its students depends largely upon that indefin-
able quality called "college atmosphere." As a mother, she
breathes her own soul into her boys. They inherit all she
has been through, all of labor and strength and faith and
prayer. If her judgments 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 o'vn 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 prom-
inent ante-bellum universities she died for her ideals and
alone of all the universities of America, God has raised her
from the dead.

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

SPECIAL RELIGIOUS SERVICES

Regular chapel exercises, which the students are required
to attend, are conducted by each of the members of the
faculty in turn. The student life at Oglethorpe is also
blessed by the activities of the Y. M. C. A., and frequent
sermons and addresses by visiting pastors and evangelists.

Oglethorpe University

LIBRARIES

By the generosity of many friends, so great as to be al-
most unparalleled, the University received during the first
year of its life approximately ten thousand volumes for the
library. These consist of standard works in Literature, His-
tory and Science, with many valuable reference works in
special departments. The Private Libraries of Dr. Sellers in
Science, and of Dr. Nicolassen in the Classics, are both
available for the use of the students in these departments.
The policy of the institution is to let no year go without the
enlargement of the library. A competent librarian is in
charge and the rooms will be open during the year of 1922-
23 approximately ten hours per day. The Public 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 Uni-
versity will soon be enjoying a Library of English incompar-
ably the finest south of Washington. The volumes for this
library, including some seventeen thousand books and
pamphlets, have been received, and will soon be available
for graduate work.

OGLETHORPE COAT-OF-ARMS

Among the unique honors offered at the University is the
presentation of a sweater with the Caat-of-Arms blazoned
thereon, which will be awarded in the future under the
terms of the following resolution unanimously adopted by
the Faculty of the University, 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.

Oglethorpe University

of excellent personal character and conduct, whose general
average of all the courses taken during five preceding con-
secutive 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
accomplishment as to entitle them thereto in the judgment
of the Faculty."

THE OGLTHORPE IDEA

Quality is the word that expresses the Oglethorpe idea
quality in location, in climate, in campus, in architecture,
in student character, in college life, in athletics and sports,
in faculty, in curriculum, and in religion 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 elegant street
of that city, on a most beautiful campus of over one hun-
dred and thirty acres of woodland and meadow, including
an eighty-two acre lake which belongs to our students for
swimming, boating and fishing, the physical advantages of-
fered by Oglethorpe University are unsurpassed anywhere
in the section.

96 Oglethorpe University

One by one a splendid body of buildings is being erected
on its campus. Every one of them will be of granite trim-
med 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
Southeast.

THE OGLETHORPE SITE ATLANTA

The attractions of the city of Atlanta as an educational
center aie fast making it one of the great intellectual dyna-
mos 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 activities, she draws to herself as to a magnet the
great minds of the nation and the world. Hither comes
lecturers, musicians, statesmen, evangelists, editors, teach-
ers and officials of the United States. An intellectual at-
mosphere created by such conditions and the frequent op-
portunity of contact with these leaders in ail branches of
human activity, offered frequently to our students, give
Oglethorpe University an advantage of position and of op-
portunity which she will cultivate to the uttermost. Facili-
ties for hearing and meeting the great musicians and authors
and public speakers and the leaders in all spheres of intellec-
tual activity will be offered our students. The tremendous
influence of such contact upon the young lives committed
to us will be felt in increased ambition and redoubled de-
termination to perform, themselves, their duty to their race
and their God.

THE SILENT FACULTY AT OGLETHORPE

It is not going too far to say that the aesthetic tastes and
home habits of many young men aie ruined at college by
the cheap and unattractive furnishings of their rooms and
the ugly forbidding architecturp of the building, whose walls
often deface their campus. The architecture of an institu-
tion 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, reverence and
beauty may be expressed in the face of a building as surely
as in that of a man, 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 Oglethorpe are handsomely furnished.
The sons of the poor are entitled to the information and in-
spiration 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 "de-
cency," is essentially and dangerously defective.

This is the special work of the silent faculty at Ogle-
thorpe.

THE EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES OF OUR
FIRST YEARS

Young men who desire to enjoy the daily personal contacc
and instruction of the heads of departments will note with
interest that our first few years will offer exceptional op
portunities of that nature. It is well known that in all our

100 Oglethorpe University

large institutions only the upper classmen come in any close
contact with the full Professors, who as heads of depart-
ments occupy their time in other matters than 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 of-
fered them, chairs in the greatest universities of America.
This will be a permanent policy at Oglethorpe.

PHYSICAL TRAINING

All students of all classes are required to take two
hours a week of Physical Training. This is intended to
keep the body in good condition, and is especially designed
for the benefit of those students who do not take part in
football, baseball, etc., but who need some stimulus to pay
attention to their physical well being.

INFIRMARY

The University maintains at all times an excellent in-
firmary, with a graduate nurse in attendance, for the
prompt treatment of accidents and of such cases of sickness
as may occur. By this means prolonged and serious illness
can often be prevented. During the recent influenza epi-
demic vigorous measures were taken at once, with the re
suit that, while there were a relatively small number of
cases, there were no fatalities. There is a University phy-
sican who can be secured on short notice when his services
are needed.

EXAMINATIONS AND REPORTS

Examinations will be held once each term, and reports of
the students' standing will be issued four times per year.

Oglethorpe University 101

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 v^ater, 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 Oglethorpe University, Georgia.

DIRECTIONS TO NEW STUDENTS

Students coming to Oglethorpe University from a dis-
tance should remember that Oglethorpe University has its
own station on the main line of the Southern Railway be-
tween Atlanta and Washington. Tickets may be purchased
and baggage checked to Oglethorpe University, Georgia,
the station being immediately in front of the campus. Stud-
ents coming to Atlanta over other lines may either re-check
their baggage to the University station, or may have it de-
livered at a special rate of $1.00 per trunk by the Atlanta
Baggage & Cab Company. In using the latter method men-
tion should always be made of the special students' rate at
the time the order is given.

WOMEN'S BOARD

One of the most remarkable gatherings, even in this city
of remarkable gatherings, was the assembling of approxi-
mately two hundred of the representative women of the city
of Atlanta at the home of Mrs. Thornwell Jacobs, Saturday
afternoon, November 25, 1916, to organize a Women'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 Institu^on. Already more than

102 Oglethorpe University

two hundred of the finest workers 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 best able to serve.
These committees cover the various departments of the
University, and among them are: Ways and Means, Finance,
Grounds, Press, Entertainment, Hospital, Music, Library,
Arts, Refreshments, Transportation, and such other com-
mittees as it may seem wise to the Board from time to time
to appoint.

The authorities of the University welcome the formation
of this organization with the greatest joy. The mere fact
that they have promised a devoted allegiance to the enter-
prise has its own genuine value, but those who know the
women of Atlanta, with their marvelous capacity for earn-
est 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.

Officers and Chairmen of the various committees have
been unanimously chosen as follows:

Mrs. Katherine H. Connerat, President; Mrs. Albert
Thornton, St., First Vice-President; Mrs. E. P. McBumey,
Second Vice-President; Mrs. George Winship, Jr., Third
Vice-President; Mrs. Newton Craig, Fourth Vice-President;
Mrs. George Brine, Fifth Vice-President; Mrs. I. R. Carlisle,
Recording Secretary; Mrs. Gordon Burnett, Corresponding
Secretary; Mrs. E. D. Crane, Treasurer; Mrs. J. K. Ottley,
Chairman, Executive Committee; Mrs. Lee Ashcraft, Vice-
Chairman; Mrs. Albert Thornton, Jr., Chairman, Program
Committee; Mrs. J. M. High, Chairman, Entertainment Com-
mittee; Mrs. Omar Older, Chairman Membership Committee;
Mrs. J. Cheston King, Chairman, Players' Committee; Mrs.
DeLos Hill, Chairman, Music Committee; Mrs. E. Rivers,

Honorary Presidents: Mrs. Thornwell Jacobs, Mrs. James
R. Gray Sr., Mrs. Robert J. Lowry, Mrs. Sam M. Inman,
Mrs. Harry P. Hermance.

Through the liberality of a friend, whose name is with-
held by request, a fine driveway has been constructed from
the University to Peach tree Road; it is called "The Maud
Jacobs Driveway," in honor of the President of the Women's
Board.
