THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
DEFINITION OF A JUNIOR COLLEGE
The American Council on Education defines a Junior College as "an institu-
tion of higher education which gives two years of work equivalent in prerequi-
sites, scope and thoroughness to the work done in the first two years of a
College as defined elsewhere."
It is generally conceded that these two years of work are closely related to
high school work and, therefore, may be given properly and most efficiently in
connection with an accredited High School.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE MOVEMENT
Public Junior Colleges have usually developed as upward extensions of high
schools in response to local demands for college training.
The immaturity of most high school graduates and their need of home in-
fluences and supervision, the crowded conditions in most higher institutions and
the resulting lack of individual attention to their students, the heavy cost of
sending boys and girls "off to college" these and other considerations have led
to the establishing of many Junior Colleges in other parts of our country.
Higher institutions very generally are encouraging this development whenever
local conditions are favorable for a Standard Junior College.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
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 curricula previously given. Freshman College
Courses were offered, identical or equivalent to those at the University of Georgia
and the Georgia School of Technology; advanced credit in these and similar in-
stitutions has been granted continuously since 191 1 upon official statement of
the courses given and upon submission of satisfactory examination books and
questions the latter usually approved in advance by the Colleges concerned.
Academy Fifth- Year graduates, entering these colleges as Sophomores, have al-
most invariably done well in advanced work there and have made better average
records than students who entered these colleges as Freshmen.
The increasing need of a Standard Junior College led the Board of Educa-
tion on August 15th, 1925, to found The Junior College of Augusta, its operation
to start with the Session of 1926-1927 in the new Academy Building upon a twen-
ty-seven-acre Campus, a few blocks west of the Tubman High School for Girls.
The Junior College of Augusta is co-educational. With this in view, the
Tubman offered Freshman College Courses in 1925-1926; therefore, Fifth- Year
graduates of both schools entered the Junior College of Augusta in the fall of
1926 as Sophomores under the same conditions for college credit as stated above.
The Tubman and the Academy are now standard four-year schools, offering high
school work only, all college work being done in The Junior College of Augusta.
io THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
FINANCIAL SUPPORT
In the resolution establishing The Junior College of Augusta, it was pro-
vided that "The Board of Education shall be at no additional expense beyond the
cost of the fifth year in the High School course." It was estimated that this
added cost in the Academy and Tubman would have been $15,000.00 for 1926-1927,
assuming that the fifth-year classes had been carried on in both schools.
Hence, the Board appropriated this amount for that year, and again for
1927-1928, the remaining costs to be met by tuition fees.
EQUIPMENT
The Junior College of Augusta is housed in the new building of The
Academy of Richmond County, situated in the heart of Augusta on a twenty-
seven acre campus, most of which was donated by the City of Augusta. The
total value, including campus and equipment, is conservatively estimated to be
half a million dollars. The building is modern in every detail, special attention
having been paid to its heating, lighting, and ventilation. Ample steel lockers are
provided so that each student may be assigned a locker for the safe-keeping of
personal property, such as books, wraps, etc. The class rooms, laboratories,
science lecture room, drafting room, library, auditorium, gymnasium, shops,
lunch room, armories, parade ground and athletic fields offer ample facilities for
the satisfactory operation of a school of 1,000 students. The Auditorium has a
seating capacity of 1,060, and is well designed to meet the needs of the school.
The Library has approximately three thousand volumes, thoroughly catalogued,
and in charge of a full-time, trained librarian. Numerous magazines are kept on
the tables and ample space is provided for reading and studying. The gymnasium
is one of the largest in the city ; provision is made with lockers, showers, etc.,
for its full use. The lunch room is operated by the school, and all profits from
it are used to support student activities in both the Academy of Richmond
County and The Junior College. The R. O. T. C. unit established by the United
States Government, has the use of two large armories and ample office space for
the Commandant and his aides. It is fully equipped with Springfield rifles
loaned by the Government. The parade ground is very accessible and is to be
one of the finest in the country. Plans are being made to develop the athletic
fields so as to include all forms of out-door athletics, which in connection with
the splendid gymnasium, will fully meet every need.
ACCREDITED RELATIONS
The Junior College of Augusta is a member of The Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools of the Southern States, of The American Association of
Junior Colleges, and of The Association of Georgia Colleges. These affiliations
assure the highest possible recognition of all credits in The Junior College of
Augusta. However, since colleges vary considerably in their entrance require-
ments and in their numerous curricula, even within the same institution, it is of
the utmost importance that High School preparation and Junior College Courses
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
shall be so chosen as to lead directly into the advanced work of the desired curri-
culum of the higher institution to be entered as a Freshman, a Sophomore, or a
Junior. This applies to all students intending to enter The Junior College of
Augusta.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSSION
(i) A formal application must be made in writing. A blank form for this
purpose may be had by request to The Dean, The Junior College of Augusta,
Augusta, Ga. This should be secured and forwarded with all entries for infor-
mation asked. In order to give time for necessary arrangements and possible
correspondence with the applicant, it is desirable that the application should be
sent in before the applicant graduates from high school.
(2) The general scholastic requirements for admission to the University of
Georgia will be used as a minimum for admission to The Junior College of
Augusta, except that three and one-half (3V2) units of English, two (2) units of
Algebra, one (1) unit of Geometry, one (1) unit of History and seven and one-
half (7V2) other acceptable units, making a total of fifteen (15) units, must be
offered for admission by every Regular Student either by examination or by cer-
tificate from the Superintendent or Principal of an accredited secondary school.
Unless specially recommended by him, certificates will not be accepted for non-
graduates even though they cover the required fifteen (15) units. Not more
than three (3) vocational units will be accepted. Blank Admission Certificates
may be procured from the Dean.
(3) As at the University of Georgia, persons not less than twenty (20)
years of age, but unable to meet the regular entrance requirements and desiring
to take college courses for which they give evidence of adequate preparation,
may be admitted as Special Students ; they cannot graduate until full entrance
and graduation requirements have been met.
FEES AND DEPOSITS
The tuition fees in The Junior College of Augusta are $100 for residents of
Richmond County and $180 for non-residents, payable half in advance at the
opening of the Session in September and the remaining half at the beginning
of the Second Semester in February.
As in practically all colleges, there will be a small Laboratory Fee to cover
materials used, a Laboratory deposit to cover breakage of apparatus, a Military
Deposit to cover loss or damage to equipment issued, a Late Registration Fee, a
Students' Activities Fee covering athletics, incidentals such as test paper, ex-
amination books, etc., as approved later by the Junior College Committee of the
Board of Education.
Any student unable to pay for necessary Fees, Deposits, Books, etc., should
write for a blank Application Form for a Loan or Scholarship to be filled in by
the parents of the student and forwarded to the Junior College Scholarship Com-
mittee. This should be done as soon as possible after deciding to try to enter
the institution.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
CHOOSING A CURRICULUM
In all cases where students intend to enter a higher institution after one or
two years here, high school and Junior College Courses should be taken under
advice of the Dean or the Curriculum Committee ; this advice should be sought
as far as possible in advance.
In general, when a student presents full entrance requirements of the higher
institution to which transfer is expected after leaving The Junior College of
Augusta, Courses can ordinarily be scheduled in the latter for at least one year
which will be identical or equivalent to a full year of work in the higher institu-
tion and will be so credited by it.
Similarly, when one year of properly-chosen Courses have been credited in
The Junior College of Augusta, second-year work may be scheduled there in
standard A.B. and B.S. Courses of the University of Georgia and of similar in-
stitutions, leading to admission there as full Juniors, after graduation from the
Junior College of Augusta. If the demand warrants also the Sophomore Courses
in technical and other specialized lines of training, The Junior College will en-
deavor to offer these as the needs for them develop. Courses of general value
to students not expecting to attend a higher institution, will certainly be offered,
constituting excellent two-year curricula leading to graduation here with con-
siderable training for the opportunities and responsibilities of life.
CURRICULUM "CONDITIONS"
Admission to The Junior College of Augusta admits only to those Courses
for which adequate preparation is indicated. For example, a student choosing a
Curriculum which requires a Modern Foreign Language, Advanced Course, must
offer the prerequisite work or be "conditioned" in it. This "condition" must be
absolved by examination or by passing it off in the Junior College or the Acad-
emy before the student can be registered as "unconditioned" in Curriculum and
scheduled for the Advanced Course needed.
Similarly, when a student starts a College Course required in the Curriculum
chosen and fails on account of inadequate preparatory training, even though this
was previously credited, the student will be dropped from the Course started,
"conditioned" in its prerequisite and required to schedule this at once in the
College or the Academy. Thus, full preparation may be gained and the College
Course started again at the opening of the next Semester. It is believed that
practically all required Freshman Courses and some Sophomore Courses will be
offered each Semester, enabling deficient students to repeat needed Courses failed
and admitting high school graduates at mid-year as well as in the fall.
The procedures indicated in the two paragraphs above show administrative
devices, making for unusual efficiency of instruction in a Junior College in com-
bination with an accredited high school. It should be noted that Junior College
students may take needed high school courses to absolve "conditions" after full
admission, but high school students are not permitted to schedule college courses.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 13
GENERAL FRESHMAN CURRICULA
As suggested before, Freshman schedules vary somewhat in colleges and
universities ; the requirements should be followed whenever a student has de-
cided upon the institution to be entered later. For our own State University the
uniform schedule for Bachelor of Arts and for Bachelor of Science (General)
follows here: E51, 2; Msi, 2; H51, 2; Science; MST51, 2; Latin or French or
German.
For the Georgia School of Technology, the uniform schedule for all En-
gineering Courses is E51, 2; M55, 56, 58; Sc. 511, 522; Dr. 51, '2; French or
Spanish or German; MST51, 2.
Students wishing Pre-Medical or Teacher-Training curricula should refer
to the paragraphs under these titles.
Students not intending to go to higher institutions after leaving The Junior
College of Augusta are advised to follow the University of Georgia schedule;
however, the general requirements for a diploma here are sufficiently broad to
cover the special needs of all students.
A minimum of 15 semester hours must be scheduled and a maximum of 17
is allowed to Freshmen ; exceptions can be made only on special request in
writing, approved by the Dean or the President.
ARTS CURRICULUM
This covers the requirements, Freshman and Sophomore, toward the
Bachelor of Arts Degree in the University of Georgia and in many other in-
stitutions.
The prerequisite high school units are English 3%, Algebra 2, Geometry 1,
History 2, Latin 3, or any two of Latin 2, French 2, German 2, and Spanish 2,
with elective units to total 15 units.
Freshman requirements are E51, 52; M51, 52 or 53; H51, 52; L51, 52 or
F51, 52 or G51, 52; Science.
Sophomore requirements are E61, 62; H61, 62; a foreign language 61, 62;
electives to make a total of 60 semester hours.
SCIENCE CURRICULUM
This is identical with the Arts Curriculum except that only two units of
foreign language, either French or German, must be offered for admission and
must be continued for two years in the College. One Physical Science, Chem-
istry or Physics, and one Biological Science, Botany or Zoology, must be in-
cluded in the required total of 60 semester hours. A second year of Mathe-
matics is also recommended.
14 THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
PRE-MEDICAL CURRICULUM
The Medical Department of the University of Georgia is situated in
Augusta; students of either sex are admitted. The Junior College of Augusta
offers the full Two-Year Curriculum required for admission to this fine institu-
tion and to other Class A Medical Colleges. Prerequisite high school units in-
clude the General Requirements for Admission; also at least two (2) of
"the seven and one-half (7V2) elective units must be in a Foreign Language; other
Foreign Language units and Physics or Chemistry should also be taken in high
school if possible. The correlation of P re-Medical Courses in The Junior Col-
lege of Augusta with the later work in the Medical College here offers great
promise of high efficiency in training.
Freshman Pre-medical Requirements: E. 51, 52; Sc. 511, 522; Sc. 531, 542;
French or German ; total, 32 semester hours.
Sophomore Pre-medical Requirements: E. 61, 62; Sc. 61, 62; Sc. 55, 56;
M. 51; French or German; total, 31 semester hours. Grand total, 63 semester
hours.
TEACHER-TRAINING CURRICULUM
The Augusta Training School for Teachers correlates its work with that of
The Junior College of Augusta, both belonging to the Public School System of
Richmond County.
The Training School Diploma will hereafter require that the final year
of practice teaching shall be preceded by the full two-year Teacher-Training
Curriculum and graduation from The Junior College of Augusta, or its
equivalent in a standard college elsewhere.
The Board of Education will repay in the year of practice teaching the entire
tuition cost in The Junior College of Augusta; further, it will give these grad-
uates preferential consideration in electing teachers to fill vacancies in the Gram-
mar Schools of Richmond County. Their superior training, as compared with
ordinary Normal Courses, will undoubtedly justify this preference and tend to
raise teaching standards wherever these graduates are employed.
Freshman Teacher-Training Course Requirements: E. 51, 52; Ed. 51, 52;
H. 51, 52; two electives, preferably a Science and a Modern Language; total of
30 semester hours.
Sophomore Teacher-Training Course Requirements: E. 61, 62; Ed. 61, 62;
Ed. 63, 64; Ed. 65, 66; one elective, preferably Modern Language continued;
total, 30 semester hours. Grand total, 60 semester hours.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
CREDITS
Instead of expressing credits for academic work in terms of units, as in high
schools, they are counted as "hours" of work ; since The Junior College of Au-
gusta divides its work into two half-years, called "Semesters," its academic
credits are expressed in "Semester Hours." One Semester Hour is the credit for
one recitation, or one double laboratory period, per week for one Semester,
though more time is given in some courses. Thus a Science course with three
recitations and one double laboratory period per week for one Semester gives a
credit of four Semester Hours.
The quality of academic credits is expressed in "Quality Credits," one Quality
Credit being given for each Semester Hour, earned with a grade from 75 to 80
per cent ; two Quality Credits for each Semester Hour from 80 to 90 per cent ;
three Quality Credits for each Semester Hour from 90 to 95 per cent ; and four
Quality Credits for each Semester Hour from 9$ to 100 per cent.
In effect, this requires that some of the semester hours shall be done with
something higher than barely satisfactory grades. The plan has the great ad-
vantage of indicating at any time whether or not the general quality of the work
done is satisfactory; the number of Quality Credits earned should always equal
or exceed the number of semester hours credited.
CLASSIFICATION
At the beginning of the First Semester, all students with 24 semester hours
of credit and with 24 quality credits will be classified as Sophomores.
REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION
At the beginning of every Session, each candidate for a diploma that year, is
required to file with the Dean, or the President, a written schedule of a plan for
graduation showing courses already credited and those to be taken during the
Session. This must be done before the second week of the First Semester; the
schedule must be approved again during the first week of the Second Semester.
For graduation, a total of 60 Semester Hours is required, including English
61, 62 and 9 other Semester Hours, exclusive of Military Science and Tactics, in
courses numbered with 6 as the first digit; also 60 Quality Credits must be
earned, of which 30 must be earned during the last two Semesters of residence.
At least 9 Semester Hours must be earned during the last Semester of residence.
No Diploma will be granted any student until the requirements, academic,
disciplinary, and financial, of The Junior College of Augusta, have been met
in full.

REPORTS
Reports will be mailed to parents of all students just after the middle and
after the end of each semester. Grades for class work during each half-semester
are reported by letters as follows: A, 95 to 100 per cent; B, 90 to 95 per cent;
C+, 85 to 90 per cent ; C, 80 to 85 per cent ; D, 70 to 80 per cent ; E, 60 to 70 per
cent, failure ; F, below 60 per cent, bad failure. Examination grades and
semester averages are reported in percentages. No re-examination is graded
above 70 per cent.
DEFICIENCIES
Any student is "deficient" whose report does not show a pass in at least one
course of 3 or more semester hours of credit and grades of 60% or higher in two
other courses valued at 6 or more semester hours.
Every "deficient" student is put under formal warning and the parents are
notified. Any student "deficient" for two consecutive Report Periods or
Semesters, may be dropped from the College by vote of the Faculty, with or
without privilege of return after removing stated "conditions" by examination
here or by certificate from another College.
HONORS
Honors are announced at each Commencement, and are calculated on a min-
imum basis of 30 semester hours of work, including English. Students must
meet the full requirements of the class in which they are rated, and must have
satisfactory conduct, in order to be eligible for honors.
Highest Honor is awarded each student whose general average is from
95 to 100; High Honor is awarded when the general average is from 90 to 95,
and Honor is awarded when the general average is from 85 to 90.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
LITERARY SOCIETY
New emphasis is being placed upon the work of literary societies in Colleges.
It is recognized that they furnish a training ground for students in debate and
oratory and a facility and ease in public speaking which is not supplied in an
equal degree in any other department of a College. It is also one of the estab-
lished facts of modern life that no one can hope to hold a place of leadership in
the work of the world, who has not ability to speak well in public. While mem-
bership is voluntary in the Sidney Lanier Literary Society of The Junior College
of Augusta, encouragement is given by the Faculty to full participation, by every
student, in the activities of the society.
DRAMATIC CLUB
As a corollary to the work of the literary society in developing poise and
self-confidence, the Dramatic Club of The Junior College of Augusta, is an im-
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 17
portant factor in the student life of the school. Under the supervision and direc-
tion of a member of the Faculty, students are encouraged to participate, and de-
velop potential talent that otherwise would never be discovered. Plays are given
from time to time in the large attractive auditorium to which the citizens of Au-
gusta are invited.
SCHOOL PUBLICATIONS
School publications have great value for the training given. In 1926-1927
the graduating classes of The Junior College of Augusta and The Academy of
Richmond County, with the aid and supervision of a Faculty Committee, pub-
lished jointly an Annual entitled, "The Rainbow." The Faculty co-operates to
the fullest extent in such an activity in so far as it does not interfere with the re-
quired work of the College.
ATHLETICS
The big Gymnasium, the extensive Campus awaiting development for all
forms of athletics, the added numbers and age of the student body
and particularly the coming of young ladies into the Junior College, all
point to new possibilities for physical training and for athletic contests on a
scale never dreamed of in the past history of the Academy. An important ruling
in regard to Junior College graduates being eligible for Varsity Teams immedi-
ately upon entry into higher institutions, has been made on the Pacific Coast and
in some parts of the Middle West; it is under consideration in the Southern Con-
ference and it is hoped that such action may soon be taken. In athletics as in
many other aspects of the new institution, much study has been given to the
wisest plan for the athletic development. A single schedule was followed for
1926-1927, including some teams played before, Freshman College and Junior
College teams, each under the type of contract called for by the team played. As
numbers increase, separate schedules may be used for Junior College and
Academy teams. Conservatism should control now, it seems.
For 1927-1928, the policy regarding Coaches in athletics will be continued,
using regular teachers in the College and in the Academy.
Mr. Charles G. Cordle will again have charge of the Track Squad.
Mr. T. W. Gressette will be in charge of football, basketball and baseball.
He played on the teams of Furman University and of the University of South
Carolina and has studied coaching at the University of Illinois. For the past
four years, he coached all sports at LaGrange, Ga., winning thirty-one consecu-
tive victories in football and making excellent records in other sports. Assisting
him, we shall have Mr. Cecil W. Sherlock, well-known athlete of The Academy
of Richmond County and The University of Georgia, and Mr. Albert F. Simpson,
who was trained at Davidson College and at The University of Georgia ; last
season, he taught and coached very successfully at the High School of Washing-
ton, Georgia.
With such men in charge of athletics in the Academy and The Junior Col-
lege, it is safe to predict fine results in 1927-1928.
THE JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA
RESERVE OFFICERS* TRAINING CORPS
The United States Government has authorized a Junior Unit and has detailed
as Professor of Military Science and Tactics, Colonel A. G. Goodwyn (Major,
U. S. A., Retired), Commandant for five years at The Citadel, Charleston,
South Carolina. Military Service is optional for Junior College students,
but doubtless the Two Years' Basic Course will be taken by many of
them, especially those intending to enter Colleges or Universities where this
Course is required and where it is expected that full credit will be given for satis-
factory theoretical and practical training here. The splendid Drill Field at the
new Campus, the ample facilities in the New Building and the new equipment
furnished by the Government enables Colonel Goodwyn to do excellent work
under most favorable conditions. Scarcity of funds was given as a reason why
uniforms could not be issued to all cadets who drill ; also, the coats and pants if
issued would be left-over stock from the World War, in stock sizes, roughly made
and varied in texture and color of material. Colonel Goodwyn stated that this
was never satisfactory and strongly urged the Committee to accept instead the
issue by the War Department of shirts, belts, ties, caps or hats, insignia, etc., for
the entire R. O. T. C. unit and to continue the use of a distinctive uniform of
Olive Drab with coat of the popular English style with roll collar, to be purchased
by the cadets as heretofore. This was officially approved by the Committee, and
the uniforms which proved so satisfactory in 1926-1927 may be used in 1927-1928.
New uniforms may be purchased at $26.20 for cap, coat and trousers ; the local
agents chosen by the Committee of the Board are Messrs. Farr & Hogan who
will furnish all new uniforms for 1927-1928. Announcements in regard to having
measures taken, making payments, etc., will be published on the opening day of
the new session. A small deposit will be required from each cadet before shirts,
belt, overseas cap, etc., will be issued to him ; this deposit is refunded when the
clothing issued is returned by the cadet at the end of the session.
DISCIPLINE
Discipline is under the control of the College Faculty, administered through
the President and the Dean. The following rules have been adopted :
1. The disciplinary system shall consist of "points" given students for
breaches of discipline. When a student has a total of five "points" a
First Reprimand is given the offender and notice is sent the parent.
When a student has a total of 10 "points," a Second Reprimand is given
as above. When a student has a total of 15 "points," the penalty is sus-
pension from college, the length of the suspension to be determined by
the Faculty, subject to approval of the Superintendent of Schools.
2. A student shall receive five "points" for each "cut" or unexcused absence.
3. The responsibility of having absences from recitations or school excused,
shall rest with the student.
4. Points for misconduct shall be given only by the President or the Dean,
after personal conference with student; lists of students having "Repri-
mands" shall be posted on the bulletin board.
