GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORY

In 1910, The Academy of Richmond County, under the
Board of Education of Richmond County, added a year of
college and commercial work to the standard four-year high
school program.

The increasing need for a standard junior college led the
Board of Education on August 15, 1925, to found The Junior
College of Augusta. Its operation started with the 1926-27
session in what was at that time the new Academy building.
The college has been fully accredited since its beginning in
1926.

In December, 1955, after the closing of the Augusta Arsenal
by the United States Government, the County Board of Educa-
tion made application for the western section of this property
for educational purposes. On February 12, 1957, a deed was
received conveying 38.93 acres of land and thirty-four build-
ings. On February 18, 1957, a deed to an additional 5.65 acres
was received ; and the Board of Education purchased three

additional acres of the Arsenal property for $19,600.00.

In September, 1957, The Junior College of Augusta opened
on its new campus. During the year, the Board of Education
applied to the Board of Regents of the University System of
Georgia for the incorporation of The Junior College of Au-
gusta into the University System as a State-supported institu-

AUGUSTA COLLEGE 17

tion. The application was approved in June, 1958, with the
Board of Regents to assume control on September 1, 1958. The
name of the college was changed to Augusta College.

THE CAMPUS

The area of the campus is approximately forty-seven acres
around which grew up Augusta's residential area as people
began to move out of the down-town section. It is located
on the high hills overlooking the business section of the city
and the vast panorama of the Savannah River Valley. While
other beautiful residential sections have grown up in recent
years, "The Hill" is still famous for its beautiful homes and
gardens.

The campus is splendidly shaded by century-old oaks and
magnolias. In the immediate vicinity of the main buildings
are massive English boxwoods which must be over one hun-
dred years old. There are many shrubs and flowering plants
such as azaleas, camellias, etc., which give a brilliance of
color and a beautiful setting for the white-columned main
buildings.

ACCREDITED STANDING

Augusta College is a member of the Southern Association
of Colleges and Secondary Schools, The American Association
of Junior Colleges, The Association of Georgia Junior Col-
leges and The Georgia Association of Colleges. These affili-
ations assure the highest possible recognition of all credits
earned in Augusta College.

HOUSING

Augusta College does not operate dormitories. Students
either commute or live in private homes in Augusta. Aid will
be given to students in locating housing if such is needed.

18 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

INSTRUCTIONAL AND SERVICE
FACILITIES

ADMINISTRATION BUILDING

The administrative offices occupy the entire first floor of
the Administration Building. There is ample office space for
a large reception room for visitors, the offices of the Presi-
dent, Dean, Registrar, and Comptroller. The building houses
three classrooms.

The Library occupies the second floor of the Administra-
tion Building. Every effort is made to make available to
students and faculty a variety of materials selected for en-
richment of instruction, usefulness for research, and fitness
for recreational reading. Students and faculty are encouraged
to make the fullest use of the Library and to think of it as
the very heart of our educational program.

SCIENCE BUILDING

Three large wings are occupied by the chemistry, biology
and physics laboratories. Immediately adjacent to these lab-
oratories are lecture rooms for the science courses. Adequate
storage facilities are conveniently located for each of the lab-
oratories. Four classrooms are located on the second floor.

FINE ARTS BUILDING

The massive and beautiful old home of the Arsenal has been
converted into parlors and studios for music and art. This
is one of the most stately and impressive buildings on the
campus.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION BUILDING

Business administration and secretarial science classes are
located in this building temporarily. Within two years new
facilities will be available.

ENGINEERING DRAWING BUILDING

Located adjacent to the Science Building, the Engineering
Drawing Building is devoted completely to drawing and de-

AUGUSTA COLLEG E 19

scriptive geometry classes. These are temporary quarters and
will be replaced within two years.

STUDENT CENTER BUILDING

The building occupies the west side of the central quad-
rangle. There are lounges for students when they are free
from classes. Here are located the book store, snack bar,
school supplies, etc. This building is located just across the
quadrangle from the Administration Building and the Library
thus affording convenient facilities for students and faculty.

FACULTY RESIDENCES

Seven family dwellings are located on the campus for hous-
ing faculty members.

PARKING AREAS

Since many students commute from neighboring commu-
nities, ample parking areas have been provided. The main
parking area is a paved five-acre tract with spaces for ap-
proximately 450 cars. The second parking area has spaces
for 250 cars.

RECREATIONAL AREAS

A five-acre grass area, free from obstructions, is used as a
recreational facility. Golfing instruction is given here. The
college has a paved outdoor tennis court.

CAMPUS DEVELOPMENT

The campus is undergoing an extensive development pro-
gram. Within a two-year period the following facilities will
be ready for occupancy :

Physical Education Building

Athletic Field

Auditorium

Library

Classroom Buildings

Business Administration Building

Student Center

Additional Parking

Located on the campus is a multistoried shop building and
several large, permanent warehouses. It is hoped that a tech-
nical institute will be instituted in the near future and the
facilities converted to technical laboratories and classrooms.

20 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS AND
ACTIVITIES

In all student activities the students are encouraged to as-
sume responsibility and are given opportunities for leader-
ship experiences. Faculty members serve as advisors to guide
these student experiences.

ATHLETICS

Augusta College supports basketball, tennis, and golf teams.
A school-w^ide tennis tournament is played on the campus
court each spring. With the new gymnasium and athletic
field facilities to be completed for use in 1959, a broader
program vv^ill be offered.

student body. The Council consists of representatives from
the freshman and sophomore classes plus the officers of these
classes. The Council is a student regulatory body and serves
as an advisory body to the college administration.

SCHOLASTIC HONOR GROUPS

Phi Theta Kappa, Beta XI Chapter, national junior college
scholastic society, was chartered on the campus in June 1942.

The Dean's List is compiled quarterly. Students who have
attained a grade of 85 in each credit course taken are placed
on the Dean's List.

HONORS DAY

During the latter part of the spring quarter, an annual
Honors Day program is held at one of the regular assembly
periods. At this time three groups of students are given rec-
ognition : those meriting scholarship honors for having made
superior grades; those exhibiting constructive leadership in
the advancement of the college, or who have rendered unself-
ish service in an outstanding manner during their years in
college; and those earning medals, cups and awards for par-
ticipation in college activities during the year.

The scholarship group is selected on the basis of records in
the Registrar's office. The leadership-service group is se-
lected from nominations from the faculty; the total number
not to exceed the number honored for scholarship.

PUBLICATIONS

The Bellringer, the college newspaper, is published by a stu-
dent staff. Opportunities for working on the paper are avail-
able to each student. The staff is selected on the basis of ap-
plications.

White Columns, the college annual, is also a student publi-
cation. Its staff is also selected on the basis of applications.

22 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

RELIGIOUS ASSOCIATIONS

Since the college is a non-dormitory type institution, most
religious activities by students are carried on in their home
churches. An application is being made by InterVarsity, an
interdenominational collegiate group, for the installation of a
chapter on this campus.

SERVICE SOCIETIES

Circle K received its charter in May, 1958. This is a na-
tional service organization for men sponsored by the Kiwanis
Club of Augusta.

SOCIAL ACTIVITIES

J CAY, sponsored by the Augusta YMCA, is open to both
men and women. Members are eligible to use the YMCA's
downtown and camp facilities for the organization's social and
religious functions.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

The Augusta College Alumni Society serves as a support-
ing agency of the college. It is developing a foundation pro-
gram to support certain worthy projects for the development
of the college and the betterment of its instructional program.
The Alumni Society plays host to each graduating class at an
annual banquet.

tration will be cancelled and the student may re-register only
on payment of a $5.00 service charge for late registration.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
CERTIFICATES FOR ADMISSION

By action of the Board of Regents in April, 1953, and in
May, 1956, the following admission requirements became ef-
fective. Appropriate forms for the required statements will
be furnished by the Registrar.

1. Any resident of Georgia applying for admission to an
institution of the University System of Georgia shall be re-
quired to submit certificates from two citizens of Georgia,
alumni of the institution that he desires to attend, on pre-
scribed forms, which shall certify that each of such alumni is
personally acquainted with the applicant, that he is of good
moral character, bears a good reputation in the community in
which he resides, and in the opinion of such alumnus, is a fit
and suitable person for admission to the institution and able
to pursue successfully the courses of study offered by the in-
stitution he desires to attend.

Provided, however, that any applicant who seeks admission
to an institution with an enrollment of less than 1,000 students
and who lives in a county in which no alumnus of the institu-
tion he wishes to attend resides, may furnish a certificate
from the Judge of the Superior Court of his circuit in lieu
of the certificate from alumni. In such a case the certificate

29

30 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

of the Judge of the Superior Court shall set forth the same
facts that the alumni certificate must contain in other cases.

Each such applicant shall also submit a certificate from the
Ordinary or Clerk of the Superior Court of the county in
which the applicant resides that such applicant is a bona fide
resident of such county, is of good moral character and bears
a good reputation in the community in which he resides.

However, any applicant who lives in a county having a pop-
ulation of 100,000 or more, may submit in lieu of the certifi-
cate from the Ordinary or Clerk of the Superior Court a cer-
tificate, on a prescribed form, from a third alumnus of the
institution that applicant desires to attend. This third alum-
nus shall be one of those on a list of alumni designated by the
president of the alumni association of the institution to assist
the institution in its efforts to select students of character,
aptitude, and ability and to obtain corroborating evidence re-
garding the place of residence of such students. The certifi-
cate of the third alumnus in counties with a population of
100,000 or more shall set forth the facts required in the cer-
tificate from the Ordinary or Clerk of the Superior Court.

2. Any non-resident of the State applying for admission to
an institution of the University System of Georgia shall sub-
mit a similar certificate from two alumni of the institution
that he desires to attend, or from two reputable citizens of
the community in which the applicant resides.

Every such applicant shall also submit a certificate from a
judge of a court of record of the county, parish or other politi-
cal subdivision of the State in which he resides that he is a
bona fide resident of such county, parish or other political
subdivision and a person of good moral character and bears a
good reputation in the community in which he resides.

3. There is reserved to every institution of the University
System of Georgia the right to require any applicant for ad-
mission to take appropriate intelligence and aptitude tests in
order that the institution may have information bearing on
the applicant's ability to pursue successfully courses of study
for which the applicant wishes to enroll and the right to re-
ject any applicant who fails to satisfactorily meet such tests.

4. There is reserved to every institution of the University
System of Georgia the right to determine the sufficiency of
any certificate required by this resolution ; the right to deter-
mine whether any applicant has met the requirements for ad-
mission as set forth by this resolution, or otherwise, and is a
fit and suitable person for admission to such institution.

AUGUSTA COLLEGE 31

There is also reserved the right to reject the application of
any person who has not been a bona fide resident of Georgia
for more than twelve months.

5. If it shall appear to the president or other proper au-
thority of any institution of the University System of Georgia
that the educational needs of any applicant for admission to
that institution can best be met at some other institution of
the University System, he may refer the application to the
Board of Regents for consideration for reference or assign-
ment to such other institution.

HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES

A graduate from an accredited high school may be admitted
by submitting a certificate of graduation. The certificate
should be presented on an official blank supplied by the col-
lege and signed by the superintendent or principal. A tran-
script should accompany this certificate. The 15 units of sec-
ondary school work required of an applicant for admission
must include the following:

Required*

English 3 units

Mathematics (1 unit in Algebra)** 2 units

Science 1 unit

Social Science (1 unit in American History) 3 units

Electives (units that are acceptable by an accred-
ited high school toward its diploma and which
will meet standards of accrediting agencies) 6 units

Students offering sufficiently high grades in high school
work may deviate somewhat from the above distribution of
credits.

' A student must have achieved a 70 or "C" average on the
above required units for admission to Augusta College.

The college reserves the right to reject or require further
preparation of any applicant whose records indicate defi-

*The above specified units constitute minimum requirements. Stu-
dents pursuing medical arts curricula must present for admission 1
additional science unit. Students entering the pre-engineering curricu-
lum must present 1 unit in plane geometry, 1 additional unit in algebra,
and 1 additional unit in science. Those who plan to work toward the
B.S. degree should present 1 additional unit in science and 1 unit in
plane geometry.

** One-year Secretarial Science students may substitute other mathe-
matics or accounting for algebra.

32 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

ciencies.

NON-GRADUATES

Students over 21 years of age or veterans who did not com-
plete high school may be admitted on presentation of an
equivalency certificate issued by the State Department of Ed-
ucation.

SCHOLASTIC APTITUDE TEST

All candidates for admission to Augusta College as first
quarter Freshmen will be required to submit a report on their
aptitude as shown on the College Entrance Examination
Board's scholastic aptitude test. This requirement is the same
as in all of the units of the University System of Georgia and
as in a number of private colleges of the state. The fee for
this examination is $7.00.

The examination board will send results of this test to 3
colleges designated by the person taking the test as he so de-
sires. Since there will be an extra charge for a later report
to a second college, candidates who are at all uncertain about
the college where they intend to enroll would be well advised
to designate two or three colleges to receive the report at
the time they take the test.

TRANSFER STUDENTS

Students who present official transcripts of work done in
other standard colleges may be admitted to such advanced
standing as their previous work justifies. They must present
evidence of honorable discharge from the college last attended
unless the dishonorable discharge was due to poor scholarship.
In that case, at least one quarter must have elapsed. Grades
of "D" or 60 to 70 will not be transferred to Augusta College.

VETERANS

Veterans and children of persons who died of a disease or
injury incurred or aggravated in the line of duty in the active
service of the armed forces during World War I, World War
II or the Korean conflict when applying for admission should
submit proper credentials secured in advance from the Vet-
erans Administration.

Each veteran should make provisions for adequate finan-
cial backing for one full quarter since payments from the VA

AUGUSTA COLLEGE 33

are sometimes delayed.

UNIT OF CREDIT

The college is organized on the quarter system. Each of
the three quarters in the regular session extend over a period
of approximately 12 weeks.

The quarter hour is the unit of credit in any course. It
represents a recitation period of one fifty minute period a
week for a quarter. A course meeting five p9riods a week
would thus give credit for 5 quarter hours when completed
satisfactorily. Two laboratory or activity periods are the
equivalent of one recitation class period.

STUDENT LOAD

The normal load of credit work is 15 quarter hours. A
student must have the Dean's permission to take an overload
or underload. A student may take an overload up to a maxi-
mum of 20 quarter hours if he has a quality point average
of 3.5 for the preceding quarter or has a schedule difficulty.

CLASSIFICATION AS SOPHOMORE

A student will be classified as a sophomore when he has
completed successfully at least 40 quarter hours of credit
work.

COURSE CHANGES

Courses may be dropped and/or added only upon the prior
approval of the Dean. Course changes are not to be made at
the whim of the student. In the case of course additions,
the student must, after receiving approval of the Dean, se-
cure the permission of the instructor to enter his class. If
the change also involves the dropping of a course, the student
must obtain, in addition to the above approvals, permission of
the instructor involved to drop his class. The change of sched-
ule charge will be applied in these cases.

CLASS AND ASSEMBLY ATTENDANCE

Regular and punctual attendance is expected of students in
all classes. Attendance is counted from the first class meeting
each term. Students who fail to attend seventy-five per cent
of the class meetings in a course will receive a grade of F
and must repeat the course for credit no matter what the
reasons are for the absences. This regulation is a Board of

34 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

Regents' ruling and is applied without exception.

Students who are absent through unavoidable or necessary
circumstances should render an excuse directly to the in-
structor. The making up of work lost on account of absences
is a matter to be determined between the student and the in-
structor.

The college does not issue through its administrative of-
fices an excuse to students for class absences. In cases of
absences due to illness, representation of the college in ath-
letic and other such activities, or special situations, instruc-
tors may be informed of reasons for absences but these are not
excuses. There is no officially recognized system of "cuts"
through which a student may absent himself from class with-
out cause.

A student who incurs an excessive number of absences with-
out justifiable cause may be placed on probation, dismissed
from college, or prohibited from registering for the succeed-
ing quarter.

GRADING SYSTEM

Grades are recorded as a numerical value according to the
scale given below :

90-100 (A) Excellent 4 quality points

Above average 3

Average 2

Lowest passing grade _. 1

Failure

Incomplete

Withdrawal, failing .

Withdrawal, passing ...

The maximum time for completing course work to remove
an *T" is one quarter. In the event of extenuating circum-
stances, extensions of time may be granted by the Dean, but
in no case shall the time extend beyond one year from the
date of registration of the course involved.

In cases of dropping a course after the period allowed for
course changes or withdrawal from the college, the instruc-
tors will enter either "WF" or "WP" on the student's record.
These courses are considered in computing quality point aver-
ages since they represent a part of the total academic load
for which the student enrolled.

QUALITY POINT AVERAGES

Quality point values are assigned to each grade bracket

80-89

70-79

60-69

Below 60

I

WF

WP

(B)
(C)
(D)
(F)

AUGUSTA COLLEGE 35

as designated above. To obtain a student's academic stand-
ing, the total number of quality points earned is divided by
the total number of quarter hours attempted.

When courses in v^^hich the student has made a grade below
70 (D or F) are repeated, the last earned grade is the official
grade, and the hours attempted and earned are computed only
once.

SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS

The following minimum scholarship standards for remain-
ing in college have been adopted for the University System
and are therefore a part of the regulations of Augusta Col-
lege:

1. A student who earns credit for less than five hours dur-
ing a quarter is not eligible to register for the following
quarter. (Does not apply to first quarter freshmen.)

2. A student who earns credit for less than ten hours in a
quarter is placed on scholastic probation. Probation will
continue until the student passes a normal load of fifteen
hours during one quarter.

3. A student on probation must pass ten hours in one quar-
ter or be dismissed. At least five quarter hours must
carry a grade of at least 70 (C) .

4. A student on scholastic probation for three consecutive
quarters will be dismissed.

5. A student dismissed for defective scholarship may re-
register after an absence of one quarter.

6. A student whose quality point average falls below 1.0
in any college year is not eligible to register for the
following fall quarter unless he makes up his deficiency
in summer school. Deficiency will be considered made

up if the quality point average is 1.0 or better over the
combined record of the college year and the summer
school.

7. A student who is deficient at the end of the spring quar-
ter is permitted to enroll for the summer quarter to make
up his deficiency. If deficiency is not made up during
the summer quarter, the student is not eligible to regis-
ter for the fall quarter.

8. A student who is ineligible to register at the institution

36 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

he has been attending is ineligible to register at Augusta
College until the conditions for eligibility have been sat-
isfied.

DISCIPLINE

It is assumed that a young man or young woman who ap-
plies for admission to Augusta College comes with a serious-
ness of purpose and that he expects to conform loyally and
fully to the program of the college. There is no place for
disorder of any kind, nor for loafing, in the program of this
school.

Disorder or other offensive conduct in the buildings or on
the premises of the school will subject the student to suspen-
sion from school.

ments and their numerous curricula, even within the same in-
stitution, it is of utmost importance that high school prep-

37

38 AUGUSTA COLLEGE

aration and junior college courses shall be so chosen as to lead
directly into the advanced work of the desired curriculum of
the higher institution to be entered.

Students will be assigned Faculty Advisors to guide them in
planning their academic programs.

BASIC CURRICULA

Unless a student is pursuing a program of studies pro-
vided for l)y the pre-professional curricula (pages 39-44),
he will follow either the Associate in Arts or the Associate in
Science program. These programs are designed to provide
a breadth of academic background as preparation to enter
senior division colleges.
