GENERAL INFORMATION
HISTORY
By an act of the Georgia Legislature, approved November 26,
1890, it was enacted that there should be "established in con-
nection with the State University and forming one of the departments
thereof, a school for the education and training of colored students.
By the same act, the Governor was empowered to appoint "five
fit and discreet persons, residents of the state, to be known as the
Commission on the School for Colored Students." This commission
was to secure the grounds and buildings necessary for the establish-
ment of the school and to prescribe a course of training to be pro-
vided for all the students in the said school. This course of training
was to embrace the studies required by the Act of the Congress of
the United States, approved July 12, 1862, and August 30, 1890,
making donations of public lands and the proceeds thereof to the
states and territories for educational purposes.
The control and management of the school was vested in the
Board of Trustees of the University of Georgia. As soon as the
school was located, established, and turned over to the Board of
Trustees of the University of Georgia, the commission named in
the act, appointed by the Governor, constituted the local board
of trustees for the school. This local board, having perpetual suc-
cession, was charged with the control, supervision, and manage-
ment of the school, subject to the general board of trustees of the
University of Georgia. The chairman of said local Board of
Trustees was made ex-officio member of the Board of Trustees of
the University.
In the summer, 1891, from June to August, by direction of the
commission, Chancellor Boggs inaugurated in Baxter Street School
building at Athens, Georgia, a preliminary session of the school
which was conducted by Richard R. Wright, principal, and
three other instructors. Later, in 1892, this school was styled by
the commission, "The Georgia State Industrial College for Colored
Youths" and located about five miles southeast of the court house,
near the town of Thunderbolt. For the permanent organization,
the Commission selected a faculty consisting of a president, in-
structors in English, mathematics and natural science, a superin-
tendent of the mechanical department, and a foreman of the farm.

THE PURPOSE OF THE COLLEGE
The Georgia State College is a senior college maintained by the
state of Georgia for colored people. It is a division of the Uni-
versity System of Georgia devoted to the improvement of Negro
life in particular and the life of the state in general. The College
provides varied curricula to meet the needs of this large group of
the state's population. It seeks to develop in students those
qualities which are essential to the highest type of citizenship. It
aims to develop in the students the proper attitude toward life,
and to enable them to realize their places in our growing society.
The College proposes to realize its obligations by:
1. Having each student to learn a technical trade by which he
may earn a living.
2. Developing industry and strength of character which are
essential to success in every vocation.
3. Creating a desire in each student to be efficient in whatever
vocation he may choose.
4. Assisiting each student to acquire the broad liberal education
needed as a background for the vocation or profession he
may pursue.

6. Educating superior teachers for elementary and secondary
schools of Georgia, and placing emphasis on rural life.
7. Developing leaders and citizens who will have a realistic ap-
proach to agricultural, educational, social, and economic
problems of Georgia.
8. Stimulating and encouraging participation in the democratic
life of the college community.
BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
The beautiful oak trees with hanging moss make this campus
one of the most attractive to be found at any institution in the

The College Year
The College is organized to operate on the quarter system. Ac-
cordingly, the year is divided into three quarters fall quarter,
winter quarter, and spring quarter. Each quarter is approximately
twelve weeks in length and represents one-third of a year's work.
Should a student attend two quarters, he would complete two-
thirds of a year's work. Students may enter at the beginning of
any quarter.
The Summer Quarter
In the summer quarter, work leading to a bachelor's degree is
offered. The purpose of the summer quarter is to provide profes-
sional training and contacts, and to meet the needs of the following
groups of students:
1. Regular students who wish by summer study to shorten the
time required for graduation or to remove deficiencies.
2. Teachers in service who desire to raise, extend, or renew
certificates, or to earn credit toward a college degree.
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS 33
The summer quarter consists of twelve weeks and is divided into
two sessions of six weeks each. A full quarter's work may be
completed by attending both sessions, or a half quarter's work may
be completed by attending either session.
Attendance
While in residence, each student is required to attend regularly
all lectures and other prescribed exercises in the courses which he
pursues, or else suffer such penalties as may be imposed for un-
excused absences.
A student has no right to be absent from any exercise in a course
for which he is registered, except (a) for serious illness, or (b) by
action of the College rules, or (c) unless officially excused by the
President, or (d) unless officially withdrawn from the course in
advance. An excuse for absence does not in any case relieve the
student from responsibility for the work of the class. If in any
quarter a student incurs probation both for attendance and for low
scholastic standing, he may be dropped from the College.
The Grading System
The college uses letters to indicate grades. "A" is the highest
grade; "D" the lowest passing grade.
A is Excellent
B is Good
C is Fair
D is Poor
F is Failure
F (Failure). This grade indicates failure of the student to meet
the requirements of the course and entitles the student to no credit.
This grade may be converted into a higher grade only by repeating
the course.
I (Incomplete). This grade indicates that the student has not
completed the work of the course. The incomplete, which should
be removed the next quarter in which the course is offered, is
automatically converted into a failure if it is not removed at the
end of one year.
E (condition). A grade of condition is not satisfactory and must
be removed by examination. A student may receive a grade no
higher than a "D" by removing a condition. This grade auto-
matically becomes a failure if not removed during the quarter
following the date received.
A grade of "D", while accepted as a passingTimark, does not
represent satisfactory achievement, and is not accepted toward a
34 GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE
student's major or minor. Like the higher grades, it is final and
cannot be raised by subsequent work or examination; however, the
entire course may be repeated for a higher grade upon recom-
mendation of the professor in charge. At no time however, may
credit be received more than once for the same course.
Quality Points
The value of each grade in quality is as follows: a grade of "A"
entitles the student to 3 quality points per credit hour; a grade of
"B" entitles the student to. 2 quality points per credit hour; a
grade of "C", 1 quality point per credit hour; a grade of "D", no
quality points. For a grade of "F", 1 quality point per credit hour
will be deducted. For example, if a student received a grade of "A"
in a 5 credit course, he receives 5 credits and 15 quality points. It
is a requirement of the college that every student possess at least
as many quality points as credit hours before he shall be granted a
degree from the institution.
Classification of Students
A student will be classified as a freshman, sophomore, junior, or
senior, according to the number of quarters hour of work that he
has completed with an average grade of C. A student who has
completed less than 37 hours of the number of hours required for
graduation will be classified as a freshman. A student will be
entitled to register as a sophomore when he has completed with an
average grade of C at least 37 hours; as a junior when he has com-
pleted with a like average at least 84 hours; and as a senior when he
has completed with a like average at least 131 hours.
The classification under which a student registers at the begin-
ning of the academic year will continue throughout that year.
Student Load
The normal load of a student for each quarter is fifteen quarter
hours. Students on the Dean's List may register for an extra
course or twenty quarter hours. Seniors within twenty quarter
hours of graduation may register for twenty quarter hours.
A student who cannot devote his entire time to his studies be-
cause of illness or outside work necessary to meet expenses or for
other good reasons, may be allowed by the Dean to take fewer than
the prescribed number of courses.
Every student will be held responsible for the performance of all
work assigned to him on his student program card and for regular
attendance upon his courses.
Every student, except a special student, shall be required to fol-
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS 35
low a prescribed order of courses in his curriculum. In case of
temporary irregularity due to failure, or other causes, the student
shall be required to select such courses in his curriculum as will
make him conform as quickly as possible.
Incomplete required courses take precedence over other subjects.
Any student who has failed to remove an incomplete or condition
grade in a required course within the allotted period or who has a
failing grade in a required course must register for that course until
the deficiency is removed.
Student Advisers
Each student is assigned to a member of the faculty for special
advice during the freshman and sophomore years. In the case of
senior division students, the professor in charge of the student's
major concentration subject automatically becames his adviser.
The duties of the adviser are to assist the student in selecting his
subjects, to aid him in interpreting the requirements, to guide him
in important matters. In case of any proposed change in his pro-
gram, a student should consult his adviser who will judge the
reason for the change and report the case to the Dean. The responsi-
bility for the selection of the courses rests, in the final analysis,
upon the student. It is the primary duty of the student to meet
the requirements of his curriculum, so that he may not in his
senior year, find himself unable to graduate. A request from the
adviser to the student for conference should be promplty complied
with.
Examinations
English Qualifying Examination: Students are expected to
show proficiency in English before being recommended for a
degree in any department. Students are urged to satisfy this re-
quirement before reaching the senior year.
Comprehensive examinations are required by some departments
before a student may be admitted to candidacy for a degree.
Degrees Offered
The College offers the degree of Bachelor of Science with a
major in home economics, agriculture, education, and trades and
industries. A Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts may be
earned in the content fields such as business administration, English,
mathematics, natural science, and social science.

quarter, he will be placed on probation for the following quarter.
If he is a work student, either his work or his class load will be re-
duced. Should a student on probation continue to fail in any sub-
ject in his reduced load, he will be advised either to take a
special course of study adapted to his particular needs or to with-
draw from the college. A student's probationary period ends when
he has shown the College authorities that he can successfully pur-
sue the course of study for which he is registered.
2. In order to receive a degree from the College, a student must
have at least a "C" average or at least as many quality points as
credits.
3. Each student must earn a grade of "C" or more in his major

Curricula and Description of Course
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Junior Division
During the freshman and sophomore years (the junior division)
the program of study for all degrees is designed to give the student
a broad, general education such that, (1) if he cannot pursue his
education beyond the junior division, he will have the mental
equipment to become a useful and intelligent citizen; and
(2) if he does continue his studies into the senior division as a
candidate for a bachelor of science or professional degree, he will
have a background to pursue these studies with profit. For this
reason, about two-thirds of the program is common to all students
except for the specialized degrees, and consists of 12 survey courses
in the main fields of knowledge: social science, natural science,
mathematics and English. Other courses selected in the junior
division are to be chosen with reference to the student's degree of
preference.
The Freshman Program
A comparatively few students entering the College are in a
position to choose wisely the degree towards which they wish to
work. The schedule of freshman studies is largely made uniform
for all degrees except for certain technical degree programs.
This uniform freshman program consists of two survey courses
in the social sciences, two survey courses in either human biology
or physical science, one survey course in mathematics, two survey
courses in English composition, and one course in speech. This
leaves, in general, one course to be elected by the student, the
choice depending upon his preference as to the degree towards
which he will finally work.
In case a student presents evidence, from an accredited school
or otherwise, that he has taken the equivalent of any of these
freshman courses, he may, on passing a written examination satis-
factory to the division, be exempted from the course as a specified
subject or as a group requirement.
The Sophomore Program
In the sophomore program of the curriculum for the general de-
grees, one survey course in social science, two survey courses in
either physical science or human biology, and two survey courses
in the humanities a study of English, foreign literature, and fine
arts are required.

GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE
CHEMISTRY LABORATORY SCENE
Senior Division
A student is admitted to the senior division when he has suc-
cessfully completed the junior division requirements for some de-
gree, which include ninety quarter hours (90) of academic
work. Ninety quality points (90) are also required for admission
to the senior division. To be eligible for admission, the student
also must have passed successfully the Sophomore Comprehensive
Examination. A total of one hundred eighty quarter credits (180)
and one hundred eighty quality points, ninety (90) of which must
be obtained in the senior division, is necessary to qualify the
student for graduation except in the cases of the specialized cur-
ricula where a total of more than one hundred eighty quarter
credits may be required.
Major Subjects
While it is advantageous for the student to choose a major sub-
ject during his sophomore year, this selection is required on regis-
tering in the senior division. The work required in this major
subject varies with the degree chosen but in general constitutes the
heart of the senior division program. At least half the courses in
a student's major, both as to division and subject must be com-
pleted in residence at Georgia State College.
Except in the Divisions of Agriculture and Home Economics and
in the Departments of Elementary Education and Business Ad-
ministration, not only a major subject but a minor subject also is
one of the requirements for a degree.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
39
SECTION OF LIBRARY
Upon registering in the senior division each student must present
in writing a program of courses for the entire work of the senior
division. This program must be approved in writing by the prof-
fessor in charge of his major and the Dean. This program cannot
be changed unless by written consent of the major professor and
Dean.
