It is generally conceded that these two years of work are closely related to high school work and therefore may be given properly and 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 trainnig. The immaturity of most high school graduates and their need of home influences and supervision, the crowded conditions in most higher institu- tions 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. Very generally, higher institutions are encour- aging their 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 institutions was granted continuously from 1911 to 1926 upon official statement of the courses, and upon submission of satisfactory examination books and questions the latter usually approved in advance by the college concerned. Academy fifth- year graduates, entering these colleges as Sophomores, almost invariably did well in advanced work and made better average records than students who entered these colleges as Freshmen. The increasing need of a standard junior college led the Board of Education on August 15. 1925, to found the Junior College of Augusta, its operation to start with the session 1926-27 in the new Academy building upon a twenty-seven-acre campus, a few blocks west of the Tubman High School for girls. The wisdom of this action on the part of the Board of Education has been proved by the continuous growth of the Junior College. The Junior College of Augusta is co-educational. With this in view, the Tubman High School offered freshman college courses in 1925-26; JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA H therefore fifth-year graduates of both schools entered the Junior College of Augusta in the fall of 1926 as Sophomores under the same condition for college credit as stated above. FINANCIAL SUPPORT The resolution establishing The Junior College of Augusta provided 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 be $15,000.00 for 1926-27, assuming that the fifth-year classes had been carried on in both schools. Hence the Board appropriated this amount for that year and subsequent years, intending the remaining cost to be met by tuition fees. Through direct appropriation by the Board of Education and tuition fees, all obligations are fully met. There is neither deficit nor debt con- nected with the operation of The Junior College of Augusta. Equipment The Junior College of Augusta is housed in the 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 conserva- tively estimated to be a half-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 classrooms, laboratories, science lecture rooms, drafting room, library, auditorium, gymnasium, shops, lunch rooms, 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 1,046 and is well designed to meet the needs of the school. The Library has approximately twelve thousand volumes, thoroughly catalogued, in charge of two full-time, trained librarians. Numerous magazines are kept on the tables and ample space is provided for reading and studying. The Library is also a depository for U. S. Government documents, which include several thousand selected publi- cations. The gymnasium is one of the largest in the city and provision is made with lockers, showers, etc., for full use. The lunchroom is operated by the school, and all profits from it are used to support student activities in the Academy and the Junior College. The R. O. T. C. unit, established by the United States, has the use of two large armories and ample office space for the Commandant and his aides. It is fully equipped with Springfield rifles furnished by the Government. The ample parade ground is directly in front of the building. In September 1938, a $75,000.00 addition to the building was put into use. This contains ten classrooms, a 12 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA biology laboratory, a chemistry laboratory, and a large Home Economics Department. Out of a recent four-million-dollar bond issue, $400,000.00 was ear- marked for the construction of a vocational building. This new building is now completed. It contains shops and lecture rooms for the various vocational courses of the school. The equipment of the vocational school was transferred to the Junior College campus during the summer of 1952. ACCREDITED RELATIONS The Junior College of Augusta is a member of the Southern Associa- tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools, The American Association of Junior Colleges, The Association of Georgia Junior Colleges and the Georgia Association of Colleges. The affiliations assure the highest possible recognition of all credits earned in The Junior College of Augusta. However, since colleges vary considerably in their entrance requirements and their numerous curricula, even within the same insti- tution, it is of utmost importance that high school preparation 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 as a Freshman, a Sophomore, or a Junior. This applies to all students intending to enter The Junior College of Augusta. JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA , 13 General Requirements For Admission ( 1 ) A formal application made in writing on a blank to be obtained by request to the President, The Junior College of Augusta, Augusta, Georgia, preferably as soon as possible after graduation from high school. (2) Satisfying the general scholastic requirements of a general average of seventy-five per cent, or higher, for all work offered for admission. (3) Definite recommendation to college by the principal of the high school attended. Persons not less than twenty years of age, who are unable to meet regular entrance requirements and who desire to take the course for which they are adequately prepared, may be admitted as SPECIAL students; but they cannot graduate until full entrance and graduation requirements have been met. Also, graduates of an accredited high school who present fifteen acceptable units, but not all of the prescribed units, and who are recommended for entrance by their principals, may be admitted as SPECIAL students; but they cannot graduate until full entrance and graduation requirements have been met. The general scholastic requirements for admission to The Junior College of Augusta are as follows : English 3 units Math. (Incl. Elements of Algebra) 2 units Science 2 units Social Science . 3 units Electives 6 units Minimum Total 16 units A graduate of an accredited high school who presents all the pre- scribed units for entrance, but who takes less than twenty-four semester hours of regular college work, is classified as an IRREGULAR student, and in such case must meet all requirements for graduation before being granted a diploma from The Junior College of Augusta. ARTS AND SCIENCE ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS The following admission requirements must be met by all students proposing to work toward the Arts or the Science diploma in the Junior College. This high school program is based upon the known requirements of the best standard colleges and universities : English (minimum) _ 3 units Social Science 3 units Algebra 2 units Plane Geometry 1 unit Language _ 2 units Science 2 units Electives (to make 16 units). 14 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA PRE-MEDICAL ADMISSION For admission in the Pre-Medical Curriculum at least two of the elective units must be Foreign Language; Physics and Chemistry should, if possible, also be taken in High School. Since the Medical College of the University of Georgia is situated in Augusta, the correlation of the Pre-Medical course in the Junior College of Augusta with the later work of the Medical College offers great promise of efficiency in training. Since experience has shown that success in Medical Colleges depends largely upon thorough work in the required Pre-Medical Sciences, no Pre-Medical Diploma will be granted a student whose average in either of these sciences is below 80%. (See note under Pre-Medical Curricu- lum.) First two years of standard Pre-Medical requirements can be met at the Junior College. Conference should be had with the President or Dean for proper planning of the Pre-Medical Program. LIMITATION ON COURSES For all courses a minmum of 15 semester hours must be sched- uled for each semester. A maximum of 17 semester hours is per- mitted Freshmen, except in the Technical and Pre-Medical curric- ula; exceptions can be made only on special request in writing - , ap- proved by the President or the Dean. 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 President, the Dean, or the Curriculum Committee; this advice should be sought as far as pos- sible 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 sched- uled in the latter for at least one year, which will be identical with or equivalent to a full year of work in the higher institution and will be so credited by it. Similarly when one year of properly chosen courses has been credited in The Junior College of Augusta, second-year work may be scheduled here in standard A.B. and B.S. courses of the senior colleges and universities, leading to admission as full juniors after graduation from The Junior College of Augusta. If there is suf- ficient demand, sophomore courses in technical and other special- ized lines of training will also> be offered. Courses of general value to students not expecting to attend a higher institution will cer- tainly be offered, constituting excellent two-year curricula leading to graduation here with considerable training for the opportunities and responsibilities of life. After a semester is under way, students will not be permitted to drop or change courses at will. Careful planning should be done JUNIOR COLIjEGE OF AUGUSTA 15 at the outset and the courses carried through to completion. CURRICULUM RESTRICTION OR "CONDITIONS" Entrance 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." The "condition" must be removed by examination or by passing the course in The Junior College and scheduled for the advanced course needed. Similarly, when a student starts a college course required in the curiculum chosen and fails on account of inadequate preparatory train- ing, 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 ad- ministrative devices making for unusual efficiency of instruction in a junior college in combination with an accredited high school. It should be noted that junior college students may take needed high school courses to remove "conditions" after full admission, but high school students are not permitted to schedule college courses. Regarding Curricula As suggested before, freshman schedules vary somewhat in colleges and universities. The requirements of the college which the student intends to enter should, therefore, be followed as nearly as the curricula of the Junior College permit. Students not intending to go to higher institutions after leav- ing The Junior College of Augusta are advised to follow in gen- eral the Arts or Science curriculum ; however, the requirements for the General Diploma and the Secretarial Science Diploma are suf- ficiently broad to cover the needs of many students. Students who expect to study Medicine, or any branch of Engineering, should follow the curricula indicated. 16 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA Curricula ARTS: Freshman Year College Composition (E. 51-52) 6 Sem.

Courses in Machine Shop and Welding, Electricity, Automotive Shop, Radio and Electronics, Air Conditioning, Refrigeration, Printing, and Cosmotology are offered in the Vocational School. Tuition and Fees The tuition in The Junior College of Augusta is $150.00 for residents of Richmond County, Georgia, and $175.00 for non-residents, half payable in advance at the opening of college in September and the remaining half at the beginning of the second semester in January. A student is classified as non-resident unless his parent or legal guardian resides in Richmond County, Georgia. In addition to the above tuition charges a student fee of $10.00 per semester is charged each student. This fee covers supplies for laboratories, library books and periodicals, and commercial course supplies. Any Junior College student who elects to take Shop Vocational courses must pay a fee in addition to the above of $5.00 per semester. Cosmotology carries a fee of $10.00 per semester. By action of the Board of Education of Richmond County, no student will be allowed to attend classes until all fees have been paid in advance. In case of withdrawal from school, the Board of Education has adopted the following policy in regard to refund of tuition and fees: One week or less of attendance 80% refund Between one and two weeks' attendance 80% refund Between two and three weeks' attendance 60% refund Between three and four weeks' attendance 40% refund Between four and five weeks' attendance 20% refund Over five weeks' attendance no refund Special Students in The Junior College of Augusta will pay tuition at the rate of $25.00 per course up to three courses, when the tuition charge will be the normal tuition charge of $75.00 for residents. Non-residents will pay $29.25 per course up to three courses. JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 21 Semester Hours and Credits Instead of expressing credits for academic work in terms of units, as in high school, colleges count them as 'hours' of work; since the Junior College of Augusta divides its work into half- years, called semesters, its academic credits are expressed in "sem- ester hours". One smester 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 credit is expressed in "quality credits", one quality credit being given for each semester hour earned with a grade from 75 through 79, two quality credits for each semester hour from 80 through 89. three quality credits for each semester hour from 90 through 94, and four qualiy credis for each semester hour from 95 through 100. In effect, this requires that some of the semester hours shall be done with something higher than merely satisfactory grades. The plan has he great advantage of indicating at any time whether or not the general quality of work done is satisfactory ; the number of quality credits should always equal or exceed the number of semester'hours credited and required. Students whose work does not meet this quailty requirement will not receive diplomas here or recommendation to higher institutions for advanced credit in courses graded below 75 per cent. CLASSIFICATION At the beginning of the first semester, only students with 26 or more semester hours of credit will be classified as Sophomores. 22 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 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 during the first week of the first semester, and the schedule must be approved again during the first week of the second semester. A minimum of 60 semester hours' credit and 60 quality credits must be presented for any diploma. The number of quality credits earned in the Sophomore year must equal the number of semester hours' credit earned in that year. A sophomore who meets the quantity credit requirement for gradu- ation, but who is deficient in the number of quality credits required, cannot receive a diploma from the Junior College. No diploma or certificate will be granted any student until all require- ments (academic, disciplinary, and financial) of The Junior College of August have been met in full. TRANSCRIPT OF CREDITS A fee of one dollar will be charged for each transfer of credits to another institution after the first transcript is given. ATTENDANCE Every student is expected to attend all classes in which he is enrolled. He must make up the work of all classes missed to the satisfaction of the instructor in charge. Students who have unexcused absences from class will be given a grade of zero for class missed that day, without any opportunity to make up work missed. If a student has more than three unexcused absences from any class during a semester he will, upon the recommendation of the instructor in charge, be dropped from that course and be given a grade of F for the semester in that course. A student who is dropped because of unexcused absences from two or more classes in any one semester will be asked to withdraw from school. REPORTS Reports will be sent out to parents or guardians of all students after each six weeks' period. Grades for class work during each six weeks' period are reported by letters as follows: A+, 95 to 100; A, 90 to 94- P.. 85 to 89; C + , 80 to 84; C, 75 to 79; D. 70 to 74; F, below 70. Deficiencies Any student is "deficient" if his report does not show passing grades JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 23 in more than 50% of study subjects carried. Every deficient student is put under formal warning, and his parents or guardians are notified. Any student deficient for two consecutive report periods or semesters may be dropped from the College by the vote of the Faculty, with or without privilege of return after removing such "conditions" as may be imposed. The Faculty reserves the privilege of imposing special conditions governing continuation in or readmission to Junior College in the case of a student whose work is unsatisfactory for reasons other than those stated above. The Faculty also reserves the privilege of making any changes in regulations of the College at any time they consider such changes for the good of the school. HONORS AND AWARDS Honors Honors are announced at each Commencement and are calcul- ated on a minimum basis of 30 semester hours of work, including English, for each year. 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 honrs. 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 through 94, and Honor awarded when the general average is from 85 through 89. 24 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA Junior College Scholarships The Junior College of Augusta has been given the privilege of nomi- nating outstanding students to scholarships in a number of the best col- leges and universities.

No course is offered under this program until both the course and the instructor have been approved by the Division of General Extension. Extension classes cannot be organized with fewer than fifteen students. Junior College Extension Classes The Junior College has provided instructors for extension classes in the afternoons and evenings at both the college and local centers such as the University Hospital, Oliver General Hospital, the Veteran's Admin- istration Hospital, and other places. The Junior College is glad to supply instructors for any course where a sufficient demand exists to justify a class. 30 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA COURSES OF INSTRUCTION Courses whose numbers begin with the digit "5" are usually rated as freshman courses; those whose numbers begin with the digit "6" are sophomore courses. Odd-numbered courses start in the fall, and even- numbered courses are ordinarily given in the second semester. Thus, the semester in which each course is offered is indicated. However, any course may be repeated in the other semester when registration warrants it. Ordinarily, no course is offered to fewer than six students. The word "hour" means one recitation of 60 minutes net. A double laboratory period is a period of 120 minutes net. Students who show unsatisfactory training for a desired Junior College course may schedule the prerequisite work in The Academy of Richmond County, for which no college credit will be allowed.

This has been one of the fastest growing features of The Junior College of Augusta. Both afternoon and evening classes are organized in any subject where sufficient demand exists to justify the class. Such classes are estab- lished on both a credit and a non-credit basis. These classes make their appeal to adults in the fields of business, teaching, nursing, and many others who want to improve their skills or broaden their general education. It is obvious that most afternoon and evening classes are designed to meet the special needs of individuals. Some want to advance in their profession, in industry, or in business. Many adult women are interested in classes in home furnishing, millinery, clothing, child development, etc. Others are interested solely as a matter of cultural development. The general policy is to organize classes and provide instructors where there appears a definite need. Afternoon and evening classes usually extend over a semester or similar period meeting two times per week. The following offerings are typical in the adult education division: Art Bookkeeping Shorthand Typing Business English Business Correspondence Commercial Law Business Mathematics General Psychology English Literature American Government Sociology Principles of Economics Sewing Millinery Auto Mechanics Carpentry Home Management Electricity Blue Print Reading Drafting Machine Shop Welding JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 53 Roster of Students 1954-55 SOPHOMORES ?gott, Setty Sue Augusta, Georgia Bc^en, Charles William III Augusta, Georgia Brandenburg, Beverly Jane Augusta, Georgia Burgess, Robert Brantley Augusta, Georgia Bussey, Henry Jennings Augusta, Georgia Cannon, Capt.

It is operated by the Board of Education of Richmond County as a free public school for all residents of the county. During its long and distinguished history, it has made a contribution of incalculable worth not only to the com- munity it immediately serves, but to the life of the State of Georgia and the nation. The academy was first housed in a small frame building on the bank of the Savannah River just below the present Fifth Street Bridge. Its next home was on Telfair Street. In 1925, having outgrown its quarters, it was moved to the present plant, which is worth with its equipment approximately a half-million dollars. During its long and eventful history, the Academy has been visited by many distinguished personalities, including George Washington, who heard the students recite and awarded a prize. Both the Academy and Junior College have outgrown present quarters, the combined enrollment passing the 1400 mark in the fall of 1954. A pressing need exists for more classrooms, library and laboratory space. ADMISSION Students are admitted to the Academy upon graduation from the Junior High School and the recommendation of the Principal. In the Richmond County System, all students are required to take mental ability tests, and also specially designed tests in English and Arithmetic. On the basis of the results of these tests, all stu- dents are classified as "College Preparatory" or "Non-College Prep- aratory". REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION All students are required to complete 16.0 acceptable high school units for graduation. Students who expect to be recommended to college must complete the following flat subject-matter requirements, with grades of 75% or better in each subject. English 3/ 2 units 58 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA Algebra 2 units Plane Geometry 1 unit Civics - 1 unit History (including U. S. History) 2 units Science (General Science including Biology and Health) 2 units The student who does not expect to attend college may be graduated with a General Diploma, when all requirements of the State Department of Education have been met, including the following: English 3 units General Mathematics (including elements of Algebra) 1 unit American History and Government 3 units Physical and Natural Sciences 2 units Health Education 1 unit Commercial or Vocational Subjects 1 unit Other electives 5 units OUTLINE OF SUBJECTS The following list indicates the number of units offered in the Academy in each subject: English 4.5 Economic Geography 1.0 Latin 3.0 History 3.0 French 2.0 Drawing 1.2 Spanish 2,0 Music 2.0 Algebra 2.5 Commerce 8.0 Plane Geometry 1.0 Manual Arts 1.8 Trigonometry 0.5 Government 1.0 Solid Geometrv 0.5 Economics 1.0 Biology 1.0 Arithmetic 3.0 General Science 1.0 Military Science and Chemistry 1.0 Tactics 1.0 Physics 1.0 MILITARY (THE R. O. T. C.) For many years prior to 1925 the Academy had maintained an excellent Military Department. With the removal of the Academy to its new plant on Russell Street, and the establishment of the Junior College, an R. O. T. C. unit was organized under the control of the War Depart- ment. Except for one year during the period of World War II, when most of the young cadet officers were drawn off for military service, the Academy has maintained "honor" rating as a military unit. The War JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA 59 Department supplies uniforms, rifles, and other equipment and instruc- tional aids. Six officers designated by the War Department are in charge of all drills and military instruction for the R. O. T. C. unit. Every student who enters the Academy is required to drill unless declared physically unfit by a written certificate of a reputable physician. Such certificates must be presented to the Commandant at the time of registration. THE ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY NIGHT SCHOOL In order to provide opportunity for people who cannot attend the sessions of the regular day school, the night school has been in operation for many years. All the usual commercial branches are offered in the Night School including Accounting, Shorthand, Typewriting, Business English, Business Arithmetic, and Commercial Law. Credits earned in the Night School are acceptable as electives in the Academy, and trans- ferable for credit in other high schools of the Richmond County System. The Night School will be expanded to include Junior College and Academy academic courses as the demand may justify. Since no appropriation is made for the support of the Night School, there is charged a small tuition fee of $20.00 for one course and $5.00 for each additional course. Each student will also pay a registration fee of $5.00. The monies thus derived are used to pay the instructors in the Night School and other incidental expenses connected with its operation. THE SUMMER SCHOOL Each summer the Academy and the Junior College operate a Summer School, usually running for six weeks. A complete faculty representing all departments of the two schools is provided. The faculty is always constituted of members of the regular faculties of the Junior College and the Academy. Any subject that is offered during the regular session may be offered during the Summer School provided there is sufficient demand to justify it. No class will be organized with less than six people. REGISTRATION AND ATTENDANCE Registration for Summer School may be made at any time prior to and including the opening day of Summer School. Since the Summer School operates for only six weeks, students may not take more than two courses. The only exception to this rule may be G. I. students, who may be allowed to schedule three courses where it seems desirable. For the same reason, irregularity of attendance will not be permitted. It is therefore advised that those who have in mind to combine a vacation with Summer School are not desired in the Summer School enrollment. 60 JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA It is a period of intense concentration and hard work and only those students who are willing to meet those conditions have any place in the Summer School. PURPOSE OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL The purpose of the Summer School is to assist students who have failed to make up their work and to enable ambitious students to get ahead with their programs. In many cases a student may advance his classification by earning as little as an additional half-unit. In many other cases, a student by doing a little work in Summer School may advance the time ol his graduation by a semester or even a whole year. TEACHERS IN THE SUMMER SCHOOL The Summer School has always attempted to meet the needs of the teachers of this area. The work of the Summer School is strictly standard in every respect and is accepted toward certification or the improvement of the grade of teachers' certificates by the State Department of Educa- tion. Here again no classes can be offered to less than six people. EXPENSES The Summer School is supported entirely by the tuition paid by Summer School students.
