The Prayer Of Oglethorpe University
FATHER OF WISDOM, MASTER OF THE SCHOOLS OF MEN, OF THINE ALL-KNOWLEDGE GRANT ME THIS MY PRAYER: THAT I MAY BE WISE IN THEE. SINK THOU MY FOUNDATIONS DEEP INTO THY BOSOM UNTIL THEY REST UPON THE VAST ROCK OF THY COUNSEL. LIFT THOU MY WALLS INTO THE CLEAR EMPYREAN OF THY TRUTH. COVER ME WITH THE WINGS THAT SHADOW FROM ALL HARM. LAY MY THRESH- OLDS IN HONOR AND MY LINTELS IN LOVE. SET THOU MY FLOORS IN THE CEMENT OF UNBREAKABLE FRIENDSHIP AND MAY MY WINDOWS BE TRANSPARENT WITH HONESTY. LEAD THOU UNTO ME, LORD GOD, THOSE WHOM THOU HAST AP- POINTED TO BE MY CHILDREN, AND WHEN THEY SHALL COME WHO WOULD LEARN OF ME THE WISDOM OF THE YEARS, LET THE CRIMSON OF MY WINDOWS GLOW WITH THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. LET THEM SEE, 0 MY LORD, HIM WHOM THOU HAST SHOWN ME; LET THEM HEAR HIM WHOSE VOICE HAS WHISPERED TO ME AND LET THEM REACH OUT THEIR HANDS AND TOUCH HIM WHO HAS GENTLY LED ME UNTO THIS GOOD DAY. ROCK-RIBBED MAY I STAND FOR THY TRUTH. LET THE STORMS OF EVIL BEAT ABOUT ME IN VAIN. MAY I SAFELY SHELTER THOSE WHO COME UNTO ME FROM THE WINDS OF ERROR. LET THE LIGHTNING THAT LIES IN THE CLOUD OF IGNORANCE BREAK UPON MY HEAD IN DESPAIR. MAY THE YOUNG AND THE PURE AND THE CLEAN-HEARTED PUT THEIR TRUST SECURELY IN ME NOR MAY ANY WHO COME TO MY HALLS FOR GUIDANCE BE SENT ASTRAY. LET THE BLUE ASHLARS OF MY BREAST THRILL TO THE HAPPY SONGS OF THE TRUE-HEARTED AND MAY THE VERY HEART OF MY CAMPUS SHOUT FOR JOY AS IT FEELS THE TREAD OF THOSE WHO MARCH FOR GOD. ALL THIS I PRAY THEE; AND YET THIS MORE: THAT THERE MAY BE NO STAIN UPON MY STONES, FOREVER. AMEN.

The Government of the University Board of Founders*
The details of the management of Oglethorpe Uni- versity are handled by an Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. The property is legally held in trust by a Board of Trustees of seven men. The General Board of Directors meets at least once each year, at commencement time, on the university campus near Atlanta, to inspect the institution, to review all matters of large importance to the University, and to give directions to the Executive Committee which is elected by them and from their number, and which at- tends to the details of management of the institution between the meetings of the Board of Directors. Each member of the Board represents a gift of two thousand dollars or more to the University, or an annual gift of not less than $100.00.
Thus there is no one associated with the ownership or control of the institution in an important capacity who is not making a personal sacrifice in its behalf.
In many cases they represent groups, societies, churches or families who combined their gifts in the founding of the University.
Prospective students will not fail to note the quality of these men, representing the thousands of men and women whose sacrifices and prayers have consum- mated this fine purpose. As representatives and gov- ernors of the institution they will take pleasure in giving any inquirers information as to the aims and progress of the University.

The Board of Directors of Oglethorpe University, realizing the responsibility upon them of selecting a faculty whose spiritual and intellectual equipment should be capable of satisfying the tremendous de- mands of a really great institution of learning, has spared no effort or pains in securing a body of men who would not only possess that first requisite of a teacher, a great soul, but should also have those two other requisites of almost equal importance: power of imparting their ideals and knowledge, and intellec- tual acquirements adequate for their department. The most important element in education is the creat- ing in the student of an intense yearning for and de- light in the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, and the first essential for the creation of such a spirit is the example set before him by the Faculty. The ob- ject of an Oglethorpe education is to furnish the stu- dent with deeper thoughts, finer emotions and nobler purposes to the end that he may more clearly under- stand, more fully enjoy and more excellently behave in the world. It has been the purpose of the Board of Directors in making their selection of members of the faculty to choose them from as many different sections of America as possible, thus providing a rep- resentative and cosmopolitan American corps of teachers.

26 Oglethorpe University
Historical Sketch
The historical genesis of Oglethorpe University takes us back to the middle of the eighteenth century when, under the leadership of Presbyterian men, Princeton College was founded in New Jersey and rap- idly became the institution largely patronized by the young men from Presbyterian families all over the world. After a while the long distance which must be traveled by stage or on horseback, suggested the building of a similar institution under the auspices of Presbyterianism in the South. The movement began with the spring meeting of Hopewell Presbytery in the year 1823, and eventuated in the founding of a manual training school, and this in turn, became Ogle- thorpe College in 1835 when Midway Hill, in the sub- urbs of Milledgeville, then the capital of the state of Georgia, was chosen for the location of the insti- tution. Old Oglethorpe College was thus the first de- nominational college or university between the Atlan- tic and Pacific Oceans south of the Virginia line, and, of a right, claimed to be the Alma Mater of all that brilliant company of institutions which were born after her in this vast empire.
The facilities of the old Oglethorpe were adequate for the time. The main building was probably the handsomest college structure in the Southeast when it was erected, and "contained the finest college chapel in the United States not excepting Yale, Harvard or Princeton."
In the faculty of the institution may be found the names of men who were world famous. Among these were Joseph LeConte, the great geologist. James Woodrow, the brilliant and devoted Christian and sci-
Oglethorpe University 27
entist, Samuel K. Talmadge, the eminent administra- tor and many others. It is, perhaps, the chief glory of old Oglethorpe that after three years of instruction she graduated Sidney Lanier of the famous class of 1860 and that he was a tutor to her sons until the spring of '61 when with the Oglethorpe cadets he marched away to the wars. Shortly before his death, Lanier, looking back over his career, remarked to a friend that the greatest intellectual impulse of his life had come to him during his college days at Oglethorpe through the influence of Dr. Woodrow. Her other eminent alumni include governors, justices, modera- tors of the General Assembly, discoverers, inventors and a host of honest, industrious and superb laborers for the highest ideals of humanity.
Oglethorpe "died at Gettysburg," for during the war her sons were soldiers, her endowment was in- vested in Confederate bonds, and her buildings which were used for barracks and hospital, were later des- troyed. An effort was made to revive the institution in the '70's and to locate it in Atlanta, but the evils of reconstruction days and financial disaster made the adventure impossible, and after a year and a half of struggle the doors were closed for the second time.
Only twenty-five years have passed since the pres- ent movement to re-found the university began and they have been years of financial disaster and utter turmoil, yet the assets and subscription pledges of the institution have passed the sum of one and a half million dollars as the result of unusual and self-sac- rificing liberality on the part of over five thousand people.
The corner stone of Oglethorpe University was laid on January 21, 1915, with her trustful motto en- graved upon it: "Manu Dei Resurrexit" ( By the Hand of God She Has Risen From the Dead).
28 Oglethorpe University
The Opening, September 20, 1916
Oglethorpe University opened her doors in the au- tumn of 1916. After 50 years of rest beneath the gray ashes of fratricidal strife she rose to breathe the airs of a new day. Her first building, constructed of gran- ite trimmed with limestone, covered with variegated slates and as near fire proof as human skill can make it, was ready for occupancy in the fall of 1916, when the first class gathered on her beautiful campus on Peachtree Road. A faculty equal to that of any cog- nate institution in the country was formed. The work of raising funds and new construction goes steadily on. All of this has been done in the midst of finan- cial disaster that has darkened the spirit of the whole nation.
The Romance of Her Resurrection
The story of the resurrection of Oglethorpe reads like a romance. Beginning only twenty-five years ago with a contribution of $100.00 a year for ten years from her present president, it soon gathered with it a band of great-hearted Atlanta men who determined to see that their city had a university, as well as a band of far-seeing educational leaders, who wished to erect a certain type of institution in this splendid metropolis. The story of how dollar was added to dollar during the campaign of four years; of how no less than seventy Atlanta men gave each $1,000.00 or more to the enterprise; of how the story was told in 101 cities and towns all over the South from Gal- veston, Texas, to Charlottesville, Virginia, and from Marshall, Missouri, to Bradenton, Florida, each one
Oglethorpe University 29
of them giving $1,000 or more to the enterprise; the splendid triumph of the Atlanta campaigns; all this is well known. Since that time the same wonderful record has been maintained. There are now something like five thousand men, women and children, all of whom have contributed or promised from fifty cents to $1,000. They are the Founders' Club which is carrying the movement forward so splendidly.
Her Architectural Beauty
An idea of the quality of construction and design of the institution may be gained from the accompanying illustrations.
It will be seen that the architects and landscape artists have spared no pains to make Oglethorpe one of the really beautiful universities of America. The architecture is Collegiate Gothic; the building ma- terial is a beautiful blue granite trimmed with lime- stone. All the buildings are covered with heavy variegated slates. The interior construction is of steel, concrete ,brick and hollow tile. The first build- ing given by Dr. and Mrs. Lupton and their son, our beloved benefactors, is the one with the tower just opposite on the left of the entrance. Lowry Hall, the gift of Col. and Mrs. R. J. Lowry, stands com- pleted at the end of the main axis directly in front of the entrance. The total cost of construction of the buildings mentioned above with the landscape work required, will be approximately $4,000,000. The build- ing plan will be followed out in its entirety.
The Oglethorpe Campus
By the generosity of Mr. William Randolph Hearst, Oglethorpe is the possessor of one of the finest college
30 Oglethorpe University
campuses in the entire world. In the summer of 1929 Mr. Hearst gave to the University the entire Silver Lake Estates, four hundred acres of primeval forest surrounding an eighty acre lake with something like five miles of graded roads winding through it. As this property immediately adjoins the two hundred acres already possessed by the University, the com- pleted campus consists of a body of six hundred acres of land in one tract in the immediate vicinity of At- lanta, on Peachtree Road and on the main line of the Southern Railroad. This gift of Mr. Hearst provides for the University ample space for future development and protects its growth from encroachment by urban Atlanta whose suburbs are rapidly surrounding the campus.
Hermance Stadium
During the summer of 1929 the first section of Hermance Stadium was erected at a cost of something over $100,000. Like all the other Oglethorpe build- ings it is constructed of granite, trimmed with carved limestone. The seats are of reinforced concrete. This first section which seats about five thousand, com- prises approximately one-ninth of the total seating capacity . When completed it will have cost something like $750,000 and will have a seating capacity of ap- proximately that of the Roman Colosseum, 45,000. It is named in honor of Dr. and Mrs. Harry P. Hermance, Hal Hermance and Miss Helena Hermance, the don-
Her Spiritual and Intellectual Ideals
But it is not so much the magnificent exterior of the institution about which the men who are founding
Oglethorpe University 31
Oglethorpe are most concerned, it is the spiritual and intellectual life of their university. To that end they have resolved to maintain a faculty and a curricu- lum that will be of the highest possible quality, their thought being excellence in every department. They are taking the superb traditions of the Old Oglethorpe and adding the best of the present age to them.
Founders' Book
In the Founders' Room at Oglethorpe there will be a book containing the name of every man, woman and child who aided in the founding of the University, arranged alphabetically by states. That Book will be accessible to every student and visitor who may want to know who it was from his or her home that took part in the doing of this, the greatest deed that has been attempted for our sons and daughters in this generation. The Book is not yet complete, be- cause the work is not yet finished, and each month is adding many to this roll of honor, whose names will thus be preserved in the life and archives of Ogle- thorpe University forever.
Clock and Chimes
In the tower of the building given by Dr. and Mrs. J. T. Lupton, is installed a clock and chimes, with three dials, ten bells and night illumination, the gift of friends of the University. It is interesting to note that this is the only set of chimes on any college campus in Georgia. Concerts on the chimes are given daily.
32 Oglethorpe University
Immediate Purpose and Scope
The purpose of Oglethorpe University is to offer courses of study leading to the higher academic and professional degrees, under a Christian environment, and thus to train young men who wish to become spe- cialists in professional and business life and teachers in our high schools and colleges, and to supply the growing demand for specially equipped men in every department of human activity.
Students who are looking forward to university work are invited to correspond with the President in order that they may prepare themselves for the ad- vanced courses which are to be offered.
Adequate library and laboratory facilities are pro- vided. Free use is made of the city of Atlanta, in itself a remarkable laboratory of industrial and scien- tific life, whose museums, libraries, and municipal plants are at the disposal of our students for observa- tion, inspection and investigation.
GROUNDS AND BUILDINGS
The campus consists of approximately six hundred acres of land including an eighty acre lake which is situated in the northwestern section of the campus.
In front of the entrance to the campus is the term- inus of the Oglethorpe University street car line, and an attractive little stone station of the Southern Rail- way main line between Atlanta and Washington. The first building to be located on the campus, the Ad- ministration Building, contains in the basement a din- ing room; on the ground floor, chemistry and physics lecture rooms, and laboratories, the administrative
Oglethorpe University 33
offices and lounging room for young ladies attending the college ; on the second and third floors, the hospital and dormitories. Lupton Hall contains the library, the President's office, class rooms, dormitories, an Assem- bly Hall seating approximately six hundred, equipped also as a theatre for the presentation of student dram- as, and in the basement, basketball court, swimming pool, lockers and showers, and quarters for the Uni- versity Press. The University Press is equipped with a Babcock optimus press, linotype machine and two> job presses, with a number of type stands and other printing equipment given by a friend of the Univer- sity.
Lowry Hall houses the Lowry School of Banking and Commerce, and the Art Studios. It is largely a replica of old Corpus Christi College, Oxford, the alma mater of James Edward Oglethorpe. It contains class rooms and dormitories, and will stand as a per- petual memorial to the generosity of Colonel R. J. Lowry and Emma Markham Lowry.

Standards For Georgia Colleges*
The following standards have been adopted by the State Board of Education of Georgia. They are de- signed to serve two purposes:
(a) A basis of granting charters to new or pro- posed higher educational institutions under the pro- visions of Section 14 of the Georgia Code.**
* These standards have been adopted by Oglethorpe Univer- sity and are effective as of September 23, 1931.
** Section 14. No charter giving the right to confer degrees or issue diplomas shall be granted to any proposed institution of learning within the state of Georgia until the proper show- ing has been made to the State Board of Education that the proposed University, College, Normal, or Professional school shall give evidence of its ability to meet the standard require- ment* set up by the State Board of Education.
Oglethorpe University 37
(b) A basis for preparing an approved list of teach- er training institutions for the State of Georgia.
It is not proposed that these standards should op- erate to make it impossible for a worthy new enter- prise to be begun, nor for a worthy institution now in operation to be denied a fair opportunity for de- velopment.
It is, therefore, agreed that:
(a) In the case of proposed new institutions of higher learning, if the Board of Education is satisfied that such institution has a reasonable possibility of meeting these standards within three years a provis- ional charter for three years may be granted, such charter to be made permanent if and when such in- stitution shall have met the conditions of these standards.
(b) In the case of institutions now in operation, the application of these standards shall not go into effect until after the expiration of three years from the date of the adoption of these standards.
Standards for Colleges
1. Definition:
A standard college, university, or technological in- stitution— designated as "college" in this statement of standards — is an institution:
(a) Which is legally authorized to give non-profes- sional Bachelor's degrees;
(b) Which is organized definitely on the basis of the completion of a standard secondary school curriculum ;
38 Oglethorpe University
(c) Which organizes its curricula in such a way that the early years are a continuation of, and supplement the work of the secondary school and at least the last two years are shaped more or less distinctly in the direction of special, professional, or graduate instruction;
(d) Which is separate and distinct, both in faculty and operation, from any high school.
2. Entrance or Admission:
A college shall demand for admission of candidates for degrees the satisfactory completion of a four year course (15 units from a four year high school or twelve units from a three year senior high school) in a secondary school approved by a recognized accred- iting agency or the equivalent of such a course, as shown by examination. The major portion of the sec- ondary school course accepted for admission should be definitely correlated with the curriculum to which the student is admitted.
Persons over 21 years of age, who do not meet re- quirements for admission, may be admitted to reg- ular college courses if the authorities of the college are satisfied that such persons can carry the courses satisfactorily. These shall be classified as special students and shall not be admitted to candidacy for bachelor's degrees until all entrance requirements have been satisfied.
3. Graduation:
A college shall require for graduation the comple- tion of a minimum quantitative requirement of 120 semester hours of credit (or the equivalent in term hours, quarter hours, points, majors, or courses) with
Oglethorpe University 39
further qualitative requirements adapted by each in- stitution to its conditions.
A semester hour is defined as a credit for work in a class which meets for at least one sixty-minute per- iod (including ten minutes for change of classes) weekly for lecture, recitation, or test for a semester of eighteen weeks (including not over two weeks for all holidays and vacations). Two hours of laboratory work shall count as the equivalent of one hour of lecture, recitation, or test.
4. Degrees:
Small institutions should confine themselves to one or two baccalaureate degrees. When more than one baccalaureate degree is offered, all shall be equal in requirements for admission and graduation. Insti- tutions of limited resources and inadequate facilities for graduate work should confine themselves to strict- ly undergraduate courses.
5. Permanent Records:
A system of permanent records showing clearly all credits (including entrance records) of each student shall be carefully kept. The original credentials filed from other institutions shall be retained. As far as possible, records of graduates should be kept.
6. Size of Faculty and Number of Departments:
A college of arts and sciences of approximately 100 students should maintain at least eight separate de- partments with at least one professor in each devot- ing his whole time to that department. The size of the faculty should bear a definite relation to the type of the institution, the number of students, and the
40 Oglethorpe University
number of courses offered. With the growth of the student body, the number of full-time teachers should be correspondingly increased. The development of varied curricula should involve the addition of other heads of departments.
7. Training of Faculty:
Faculty members of professional rank shall have not less than one full year of graduate work, major- ing in the subject taught, in addition to a bachelor's degree from a fully accredited college, and should have two years of training in an approved graduate school.
The training of the head of each department shall be that represented by two full years of graduate work or its equivalent.
8. Faculty Load:
The number of hours of class room work given by each teacher will vary in different departments. To determine this, the amount of preparation required for the class and the amount of time needed for study to keep abreast of the subject, together with the number of students, must be taken into account. Teaching schedules, including classes for part-time students, exceeding 18 recitation hours or their equiv- alent per week per instructor, will be interpreted as endangering educational efficiency. Sixteen hours is the recommended maximum load.
9. Size of Classes:
Classes (exclusive of lectures) of more than thirty students should be interpreted as endangering educa- tional efficiency.
Oglethorpe University 41
10. Financial Support:
The minimum annual operating income for an ac- credited college, exclusive of payment of interest, an- nuities, etc., should be $30,000, of which not less than $15,000 should be derived from stable sources, other than students, such as permanent endowment, public funds or church support. Increase in faculty, stu- dent body and scope of instruction should be accom- panied by a corresponding increase of income from such stable sources. The financial status of each col- lege should be judged in relation to its educational program.
A college that does not have such support from en- dowment, church, state or public sources must show, for a period of three consecutive years immediately preceding its application for accrediting, that its charges and expenditures are such as to show a min- imum average annual net surplus of not less than $15,000 from non-educational services, such as board, room rents, etc., which may be used to supplement tuition fees.
11. Library:
A college should have a live, well-distributed, ade- quately housed library of at least 8,000 volumes, ex- clusive of public documents, bearing specifically upon the subjects taught, administered by a full-time pro- fessionally trained librarian, and with a definite an- nual appropriation for the purchase of new books.
12. Laboratories:
The laboratory equipment shall be adequate for all the experiments called for by the courses offered in the sciences, and these facilities shall be kept up by
42 Oglethorpe University
means of an annual appropriation in keeping with the curriculum.
13. General Equipment and Buildings:
The location and construction of the buildings, the lighting, heating and ventilation of the rooms, the nature of the laboratories, corridors, closets, water supply, school furniture, apparatus, and methods of cleaning shall be such as to insure hygienic conditions for both students and teachers.
14. Proportion of Students Candidates for Degrees:
No institution shall be admitted to the accredited list, or continued more than one year on such list, un- less it has a college registration of at least 100 reg- ular students. A notably small proportion of college students registered in the third and fourth years will constitute ground for dropping an institution from the accredited list.
At least 75 per cent of the students in a college should be pursuing courses leading to baccalaureate degrees; provided, however, that this shall not apply to students enrolled in extension, correspondence or other similar departments, not in regular course for a degree, in an institution which otherwise meets these standards.
15. Character of the Curriculum:
The character of the curriculum, the standards for regular degrees, the conservatism in granting honor- ary degres, provision in the curriculum for breadth of study and for concentration, soundness of scholar- ship, the practice of scientific spirit including freedom of investigation and teaching, loyalty to facts, and en-
Oglethorpe University 4S
couragement of efficiency, initiative and originality in investigation and teaching, the tone of the institu- tion, including the existence and culture of good mor- als and ideals, and satisfaction and enthusiasm among students and staff shall be factors in determining its standing.
16. Extra-Curricular Activities:
The proper administration of athletics, student pub- lications, student organizations, and all extra-curricu- lar activities, is one of the fundamental tests of a standard college and, therefore, should be considered in classification.
17. Professional and Technical Departments:
When the institution has, in addition to the college of arts and sciences, professional or technical depart- ments, the colleges of arts and sciences shall not be ac- cepted for the approved list of the State Department of Education unless the professional or technical de- partments are of approved grade, national standards being used when available.
18. Inspection and Reports:
Filing of Blank — No institution shall be placed on the approved list unless a regular information blank has been filed with the State Department of Educa- tion. The blank shall be filed again for each of the three years after the college has been approved, and triennially thereafter, but the Department may for due cause call upon any member to file a new report at any time. Failure to file the blank as required shall be cause for dropping an institution.
Inspection — No college will be placed on the ap-
44 Oglethorpe University
proved list until it has been inspected and reported upon by the agent or agents regularly appointed by the State Department of Education. All colleges ac- credited by the Department shall be open to inspec- tion at any time.
Oglethorpe University was the first educational in- stitution in Georgia to be inspected and fully accred- ited by the State Board of Education after the adop- tion of the above Standards, following the approval of them by all the educational institutions in the com- monwealth.
Student Regulations
REGISTRATION
1. Each student will first report to the Dean of the school in which he wishes to register. With his course and schedule approved by his Dean, the stu- dent will present his schedule card to the Registrar. He will then record his courses on triplicate cards.
2. A student is not considered registered until he registers his subjects in the Registrar's office, has these courses approved by the Registrar, secures a bill from the Bursar, and pays the Cashier.
3. No student is to be admitted to class without a student card issued by the Cashier when he has set- tled his financial arrangements with the University.
4. At the beginning of each term, a few days after registration, the Registrar sends to each professor course cards for each student who has registered. Should a student fail to appear in class before the
Oglethorpe University 45
two weeks allowed for changing, dropping, or adding subjects, the professor is to notify the Registrar im- mediately. Failure of the professor to do so does not excuse the student from the financial obligation involved.
5. As soon as course cards are received from the Registrar's office, each professor must check his roll and report to the Registrar immediately the names of any students in his classes for whom he does not have a card.
6. Subjects may be changed, dropped, or added only during the first two weeks of each term and only upon written permission from the Dean of the -school in which the student is enrolled.
7. Students are allowed to register up to one-third of the term. It is necessary that a student attend at least two-thirds of the term's classes if credit is de- sired.
8. Each student is required to register in person.
9. A fine of $1.00 per day (maximum limit one- third of the duration of the term concerned) is charg- ed for any student who registers after the dates set aside for registration as per college calendar.
10. As it is impossible to know how many hours of work each student will register for at the beginning of each term, no bills are sent out in advance. The student is advised to get an estimate of his expenses before the term begins.
11. Deans of departments can require delinquent students to drop specific courses only at the beginning of each term.
46 Oglethorpe University
CLASSIFICATION
As a basis for determining the class to which a student shall belong, the following regulation is to apply: a first year student must have fulfilled the requirements for entrance to his class by one of the methods specified. In addition to his entrance units, a second year student must have completed fifteen year hours ; a Junior thirty year hours ; and a Senior forty-five year hours. Special students will not be eligible for admission to either of the four college classes, or membership in any of the social fraterni- ties or the athletic or forensic teams representing the University. A student failing to receive sufficient credits during any year to entitle him to enter the next higher class must remain in the lower class un- til the deficiencies are absolved. Back work in a re- quired subject must be made up within the next term; otherwise the student will be excluded from the class to which he would naturally belong.
ACADEMIC HOURS
The average number of hours a week for first year students is sixteen to seventeen, and is uniform for all schools of the University. The number of hours a week for the upperclassmen differs. In order to avoid errors in registration all students are required to arrange their courses and hours with the Deans of the schools which they wish to enter. This also ap- plies to special students.
Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors may not take more than 18 hours a week unless they have made an average of 90 in the previous term. If a student wishes to take more than 20 hours, the written con-
Oglethorpe University 47
sent of the Dean must be secured, regardless of the average made. Seniors are not limited, but the writ- ten consent of the Dean must be secured.
There must be 66 minimum hours of regular stand- ard work for every degree. One hour per year may be selected by the student from Music, Intramural Sports, Football, Debaters' Club, Players' Club and work on the Petrel, not on the Yamacraw. The stu- dent must register and pay for these, and they must be certified to by the professor in charge.
EXAMINATIONS
For a supplemental examination, whether on ac- count of failure to pass or absence from the Univer- sity, the student is to pay a fee of $2.00, receipt for which must be secured from the Cashier and pre- sented to the professor before the examination is given. The examination must be taken in the term following the regular term. In case the student is out of school one or more terms, he may take it in the term in which he returns. If the examination grade is below 50, the student is not entitled to a re-exami- nation.
ABSENCES
A student who is absent five times in one course in any given term shall be called to account by the professor in charge, and in the event he cannot sub- mit a valid reason for such absences, he shall be re- ported to the Dean of the school in which he is work- ing. All absences shall be reported to the Registrar, and if a student accumulates a total of 20 unexcused absences from classes or four absences from Assemb- ly in a term, he shall be required by the Dean of hjs
48 Oglethorpe University
school to take an additional hour of work before being recommended to the Faculty for graduation.
FAILURE IN STUDIES
A student who is failing in any of his courses during a term will be given personal warning, and a letter will be written to his parent or guardian by the Dean of his school or the Registrar. If a stu- dent be seriously behind he may be required to with- draw from the University.
A student failing on one-half of his hours for two successive terms will be required to withdraw from the University.
Oglethorpe University 49
Courses of Instruction and Requirements For Degrees
In the session of 1937-38 Oglethorpe University will offer courses in the undergraduate classes of eight schools leading to the customary academic degrees. The degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in Liberal Arts will be conferred upon those students satisfac- torily completing a four years' course as outlined be- low, based largely on the study of the languages. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Science will be conferred upon those students who satisfactorily complete a four years' course largely in scientific studies. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Jour- nalism will be given to those students who complete a course including work in languages, literature and journalism. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Com- merce will be conferred upon those students who sat- isfactorily complete a full four years' course in studies relating particularly to business administration. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Education will be con- ferred upon those students who complete the studies in the School of Education. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Secretarial Preparation will be conferred upon those students who complete the studies in that School.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Fine Arts will be given to those students who complete the re- quirements in the School of Fine Arts. A diploma, but not a degree, is given to students completing a two-year course in Art.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Physical Edu- cation will be given to those students specializing in that department.
50 Oglethorpe University
By a careful study of the courses outlined below, the student will be easily able to make the choice most suitable to his tastes and probable future life.
In general, it may be suggested that students pre- paring to enter such professions as the ministry or law, will choose the A.B. course in Liberal Arts; those looking forward to medicine, dentistry, engin- eering and other scientific work, the A.B. course in Science; those expecting to enter the literary and journalistic field, the A.B. course in Literature, and those who intend to spend their lives in the business world ,the A.B. course in Commerce, or the A.B. course in Secretarial Preparation; those who expect to teach, the A.B. course in Education.
While each of these courses is so shaped as to in- fluence the student towards a certain end, colored largely by the type of studies, yet each course will be found to include such subjects of general culture as are necessary to the making of a life as distin- guished from a living.
Graduates of standard normal schools or junior col- leges are admitted to the junior class.
Examinations, Credits, Graduation
In place of the Comprehensive Examinations the following system of Quality Points has been adopted:
Superior A (90-99) — 3 quality points for each year hour.
Good B (80-89) — 2 quality points for each year hour.
Fair C (70-79) — 1 quality point for each year hour.
Oglethorpe University 61
Passing D (60-69) — no quality points. Condition E (50-59) — re-examination allowed. Failure F (below 50) — no re-examination. Inc. — Incomplete.
In the junior division of the college 30 quality points must have been achieved before the student is recognized as being in the senior division. The stu- dent lacking the required 30 points will be required to remain in the junior college until the needed qual- ity points have been achieved through further studies. For graduation in the senior college the student must have achieved 30 additional quality points in senior college studies, or a total of 60 qual- ity points for graduation and the degree. Transfer students must achieve 15 quality points for each year spent in study in Oglethorpe University.
On and after September 1, 1938 no fractional cred- its made either in Oglethorpe University or by tran- script from another institution will be recognized for graduation in any freshman or sophomore subject.
All transfer credits in order to be acceptable to Oglethorpe University must come from standard in- stitutions of at least junior college or normal grade. Correspondence credits will be accepted to 25 per cent of the total requirements for the degree.
In determining the rating of both high schools and colleges for any year the university is governed by the rulings of the Department of Education of the State of Georgia.
Definite transcripts are required for admission both to the graduate and under-graduate divisions.
52 Oglethorpe University
The Atlanta School System has asked that teachers take work only on Friday and Saturday, not definite- ly limiting the amount of credit. Fifteen to eighteen college hours is considered a reasonable amount of work for a pupil giving all his time to instruction. Therefore, as teachers are supposed to give at least half of their time to their teaching and to its prepar- ation, we do not feel that any teacher in service should try to carry more than seven and a half or nine college hours' work a year as a maximum, not including summer school work. When it is under- stood that this means seven and a half to nine hours of class room work a week, not to mention the prep- aration involved, it will be seen that this is reason- able.
Oglethorpe University 53
University Expenses
Tuition
No charges are made for the usual College fees such as matriculation, laboratories, infirmary, library, contingent, and student activities.
The charge for tuition is $80.00 per term, $240.00 per academic year of approximately nine months. For this sum a student is entitled to take from 12 to 17 credit hours of work per week. No student is per- mitted to take less than 12 hours per week and those students who take more than 17 credit hours per week are required to pay for the extra hours at the rate of $15.00 per hour. These sums are payable in cash in advance, at the beginning of each term, but the Cash- ier is given the authority, when a student has proven that his credit is good, to allow that student to pay one half of the charges at the beginning of the term and the other half on or before a date which the Cashier will set and which will not be later than the middle of the term. This means of paying tuition fees is ap- plicable also to charges for board and room rent.
In the Extension Department, charges are $15.00 per hour, subject to one third discount to teachers. The summer school charges for 1937 are the same as Extension charges. No charge will be made for room rent during the summer term to any student taking six credit hours for the entire summer term or three cre- dit hours for a half-summer term, and who boards at the college cafeteria, ($72.00 for the entire summer term or $36.00 for the first half.) This free room rent applies only to teachers in active service. Re- lations and friends who do not attend college classes may board in the dormitories by paying the regular room rent and board charges.
54 Oglethorpe University
Students holding self help positions are not allowed any additional discount on bills or permitted to hold any other self help job or scholarships. This does not include N.Y.A. Scholarships.
Board and Room Rent
The dormitory facilities of Oglethorpe University are among the safest and most comfortable of those of cognate institutions in America. All permanent buildings of the University will be like those now finished, which are believed to be entirely fireproof, being constructed of steel, concrete, and granite with partitions of brick and hollow tile.
The rates named are based upon two grades of rooms. The first of these comprises the entire third floor of the Administration Building, the third floor of Lupton Hall, and the second and third floors of Lowry Hall, divided into individual rooms, with general toilet and bath on the same floor. Each room contains a lavatory furnishing hot and cold water. The second grade is that of the second floor of the Administration building, and is composed of suites of rooms, each suite containing a bedroom, bath, and study. The price charged includes first class board, steam heat and electric lights, water and janitor's service; all rooms are furnished adequately and sub- stantially. Every room in the dormitory contains ample closet space. The rooms are large, airy, safe and comfortable.
The furniture is of substantial quality and is ap- proximately the same for all rooms, including chiffon- ier, study-table, chairs, single beds, springs and mat- tresses. Room linen, pillows and bed clothing are
Oglethorpe University 55
furnished by the student. Application for rooms should be made as early as possible. For reservation of room inclose $5.00 reservation fee (non-returnable) to be credited on first payment for room rent.
All students rooming in the dormitories are required also to board at the college cafeteria and any student not rooming on the college campus may take his or her meals at the cafeteria. Students employed by the University must board and room on the campus.
The charge for board and room rent per term is as follows:
Room rent: Administration Building, third floor, Lupton Hall, third floor, and Lowry Hall, second and third floors (two or more to the room) $26.00 per term. Administration Building, second floor $46.00 per term (two or more to the room). The charge for board is $72 to $80 for the Autumn term, and $60 to $70 for the Spring and Winter terms, to suit the varying requirements of the students. This is fur- nished in the form of meal tickets. Additional tickets may be purchased by the student if desired. No re- bate is given on unused meal tickets, and no transfer of use of meal tickets from one term to another is allowed. The University assumes no responsibility for, and will not replace, any meal tickets which may be lost or mutilated. All charges are payable in ad- vance by the term, of approximately eleven weeks as per college calendar, and no rebate is allowed for any reason. The particular attention of the student is call- ed to the fact that the issuance of these meal tickets is for their convenience, solely; that they are good only for meals taken during the term for which they are issued and that the minimum charge for them is
56 Oglethorpe University
$72.00 for the Autumn term, and $60.00 for the Spring and Winter terms, and is not subject to rebate of any kind on account of failure of students to use the tickets which are furnished them.
Expenses: The University reserves the right to raise or lower any and all charges, to discontinue any and all discounts and scholarships, to cancel any and all contracts for self-help work and to lower or raise cafeteria prices at will, as conditions may require.
All charges are based upon and payable by the term, in advance, not by the month or year. The lengths of terms are specified in the college calendar. When payments are permitted under special conditions the obligation of the student to meet deferred payments is not thereby impaired. Such special privileges of payment will be withdrawn in all cases where the stu- dent fails to make settlement without previous billing or notice. A penalty of $5.00 is assessed on all stu- dents attending classes or any examination without having settled their account in advance and $1 per day for delayed registration of Winter and Spring terms. If a student attends a single class, or occupies a dor- mitory room for a single night or purchases a cafe- teria ticket, the contract for that term is thus made binding and no rebate of any kind will be allowed on board (cafeteria meal tickets), room rent, tuition or college fees for that term.
The minimum charges for board and room rent are set at figures which years of experience have in- dicated to be suitable to the average student. This is especially true of board which is set low to suit many students that so desire it. Those whose re- quirements are greater are expected to purchase ex- tra tickets.
Oglethorpe University 57
The University discourages the occupation of one room by more than two students and no reduction in room rent is permitted on that account except in the case of very large rooms furnished barracks style.
The University cafeteria furnishes a liberal assort- ment of food at moderate prices, varying with the Atlanta market.
Contingent Fee
A contingent fee of $3.00 per term (non return- able) is charged to cover breakages, damages to prop- erty and similar minor losses due to students, and to cover, in part, cost of intra-mural athletics. This fee will be raised or lowered in proportion to the losses sustained by the University, as above.
FINES
A penalty of $1.00 will be charged each student moving articles of furniture from one room to an- other without permission from either the Bursar's of- fice or the Cashier's office. This fine will also be charged any student changing his room without per- mission from the office.
A fine of $1.00 a day (up to one-third of the term) will be charged for late registration, Winter and Spring terms.
A fine of $5.00 is charged if any student attends a class or examination without registration, including payment of charges.
Infirmary
The University maintains at all times an excellent
58 Oglethorpe University
infirmary, with a nurse in attendance, for the prompt treatment of accidents and of such cases of sickness as may occur. By this means prolonged and serious illness can often be prevented. There is a University physician who can be secured on short notice when his services are needed. Students whose medical needs exceed the facilities of the infirmary find every re- quirement satisfied by the hospitals of the city.
The University makes no charge to the students for infirmary service, which includes also the attend- ance of the college physician in the infirmary. In case of special illness requiring operations or the ser- vices of specialists while the University frequently is able to secure reduced rates for students, yet we assume no responsibility beyond such services as our college physician and college infirmary are able to render. This includes accidents and injuries arising from participation in inter-collegiate sports, in which case a special consideration is offered as specified else- where.
Directions to New Students
Students coming to Oglethorpe University from a distance should remember that Oglethorpe University has its own station on the main line of the Southern Railway between Atlanta and Washington. Tickets may be purchased and baggag© checked to Oglethorpe University, Georgia, the station being immediately in front of the campus. Students coming to Atlanta over other lines may either re-check their baggage to the University station, or may have it delivered at a special rate by the Atlanta Baggage and Cab Co- In using the latter method mention should always be
Oglethorpe University 59
made of the special students' rate at the time the order is given.
Students arriving at any of the Railway or Bus terminals in Atlanta may board "Oglethorpe" street cars at the points listed below. This method of trans- portation is much more economical than by taxicab.
Students arriving at the Terminal Station in At- lanta may walk a distance of four blocks (down Mit- chell Street to Broad Street, up Broad Street to the northwest corner of Broad and Marietta Streets) and board the street car.
Students arriving at the Union Station may walk a distance of two blocks (down Forsyth to Marietta Street) and board the street car.
Students arriving at the Union Bus Terminal may walk a distance of two blocks (up Carnegie Way to Peachtree Street, up Peachtree Street one block to a safety zone) and board the same car at this point.
Fares on street cars in Atlanta are ten cents for one fare (cash) or four tickets for thirty cents. These tickets may be purchased from the street car operator.
Summer Session
The summer term of Oglethorpe University meets the requirements of regular students who desire to speed up their courses or to make up work that is un- satisfactory. It also serves a large number of teach- ers working toward degrees.
All summer courses are credited toward the attain- ment of a degree, and afford a convenient way to push up by one year the date of graduation. Local
60 Oglethorpe University
extension students by availing themselves of the op- portunities of the Summer Session are able to do an amount of work, in twelve calendar months, equal to that done in an academic year of nine months by a full-time campus student. Write for bulletin of Sum- mer Session.
Graduate School
It is the purpose of Oglethorpe University to de- velop a thoroughly excellent Graduate School, offer- ing courses in all departments leading to the Master's degree. In supplying this need, the management of the University will be content only with the very highest grades of work and facilities.
Courses leading to the Master's degree in certain departments will be found outlined elsewhere in this catalogue, under the appropriate department heading. This degree is based upon that of Bachelor of Arts of Oglethorpe University or of some other approved institution- The candidate must carry an aggregate of fifteen hours of graduate work, with at least two Professors. Transfer credits (maximum 3 hours) will be allowed. The work must be of graduate grade, and must be approved by the Dean of the Grad* uate School and the Registrar. In addition a thesis is required. But the degree is not guaranteed at the end of a fixed period of time. A certain amount of work must be accomplished, and the quality of it must be such as to satisfy the Professors concerned and the whole Faculty.
In this connection the prospective student will be interested in learning that all Professors chosen as the heads of departments in Oglethorpe University must have attained the highest academic degree offer-
Oglethorpe University 61
ed that department. This fact is mentioned in order to indicate the earnest determination of the Board of Directors of the University that her faculty shall include only men of the highest intellectual attain- ment as well as men of great teaching power and strong personality.
Students entering the graduate school in selecting their major courses must present not less than two years (six year hours) of under-graduate work in the same or closely related subjects evidenced by of- ficial transcripts from standard institutions recogniz- ed as such by the Department of Education of the State of Georgia. In addition to this the student must have had one year (three year hours) of work in any subject selected as a minor.
A class that meets once a week during the session of nine months, carries a credit of one hour (one year hour) . A class that meets three times a week (three clock hours for nine months) carries a credit of one hour per term, three hours per year.
A minimum of fifteen college hours or one year of work and a minimum of one year (nine months) of residence is required for the Master's degree. A minimum of one year or approximately nine months' residence is required for the Bachelor's degree. Of the fifteen hours required for the Master's degree not less than nine shall be devoted to the major subject and the other six or more selected by the advice and counsel of the Dean of the Department in which the student is working. In addition a satisfactory thesis must be presented to th^s Faculty Committee upon a subject approved by txiem and filed with the Committee not less than ten days before the date of graduation.
62 Oglethorpe University
Three additional hours may be taken in lieu of a the- sis.
The Registrar of the University will be pleased to answer any inquiries as to graduate courses to be offered.
CONDITIONS FOR CONTINUED ATTENDANCE
It being the purpose of the University to offer its services only to those students who by their applica- tion and conduct show their appreciation of their op- portunities and also to protect its patrons from the de- moralizing influences of indifferent and undesirable students, the University will at its own discretion and without further explanation, exercise the right to decline re-registration at the beginning of any term to those students who, in the opinion of the ap- pointed officials are not making satisfactory campus citizens.
In pursuance of this purpose, a complete list of the student body is presented at the close of each term to the deans of the University, to the dean of women, to the librarian, to the bursar, matron, cashier, foot- ball coach, superintendent, registrar and to the presi- dent of the student body with directions that each of them should canvass the list and set a mark opposite the name of any student who, in their opinion, has de- finitely failed in any of the following points :
1 — Continued failure to attend classes, including the Tuesday assembly.
2 — Continued failure in their classroom work and inattention and misbehavior in the classrooms and at assembly exercises.
Oglethorpe University 63
3 — Willful destruction of or damage to University property.
4 — Disloyalty to the University and discourtesy to any of the faculty or officials.
5 — Evident dissatisfaction with rules and regula- tions or discontent with facilities offered.
6 — Ungentlemanly or unladylike behavior, includ- ing cheating, stealing and drunkenness or continual breach of good manners.
Should any student be marked adversely by as many as four of the persons voting, he or she will not be re- registered nor accepted as a student at a subsequent term, this with no implication of expulsion but to meet the standards adopted for our students.
The President of the University is directed to super- vise the balloting and to warn all those taking part in it to guard their votes against the influence of per- sonal prejudice. Only the best interests of the stu- dents and the good of the institution are to be consid- ered.
The appointed officials of the institution reserve the right to suspend or expel any student whose con- duct or lack of proper application to his studies may, in the opinion of said officials, warrant the suspension or expulsion. All contracts and agreements made with the students by the University are subject to the above conditions for continued attendance.
64 Oglethorpe University
School of Liberal Arts
Leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in the Liberal Arts
G. F. Nicolassen, Dean
This course of study is intended to encourage es- pecially the study of languages, ancient and modern.
No Latin is required for entrance or for gradua- tion. But at least one year of Latin is very desirable for the better understanding of English words and English grammar. Such a course may be taken in college.
Considerable variety is possible in following the Curriculum on page 71, as there are two sections of English 1, three in Spanish 1, and the languages may be taken in almost any order. But this arrange- ment should be followed in the main to avoid conflict of classes in the later years. Each student in the Liberal Arts course should consult the Dean at the very beginning and have his work mapped out for the whole four years.
At least one year of jGerman and one year of French will be required either in High School or in College.
Any subject that has been taken in High School must be replaced by an elective.
Latin
Latin 111-2-3. For entrance into this class the stu- dents are expected to have had at least three years of high school Latin. They must be able to translate Eng-
Oglethorpe University 65
lish into Latin with some facility. Livy and Horace will be studied in this year. Prose composition, both oral and written, will be carried on throughout the year. Elective. Three hours.
Latin 211-2-3. The studies in this class will be in Tacitus and JuvenaL Twice a week throughout the year. Elective. Two hours.
Latin 311-2-3. This class will take up such authors as the class may need. This course may be arranged for those who wish to teach Latin. Twice a week throughout the year. Elective. Two hours.

School of Literature and Journalism
Robert L. Ormsby, Acting Dean
This course leads to the degree of bachelor of arts, and aims at providing a general liberal education, stressing the literary and other cultural subjects. Latin is not required for entrance, but two or three years of Latin are desirable.
The work in English in the college division has the two-fold purpose of giving students command over the use of their own tongue in both speaking and writing, and of familiarizing them with the best in English literature. The summer courses, though not identical with the winter ones, are similar, thus en- abling a student to complete a part of his requirements for a degree in the summer term.
English
English 111-2-3. Composition and Literature. The
purpose of this required Freshman course in English is to combine the reading of examples of modern prose and poetry with practice in composition, both writ- ten and oral. The chief object of the course is to teach students to express themselves correctly, clear- ly, and effectively. Continual emphasis is laid on increasing the store of words. A vocabulary test is given at the beginning of the fall term, and a second one at the end of the spring term, to show each stu- dent what progress he has made. For those Fresh- men who are shown to be in need of special work in the fundamentals, a remedial section is formed dur- ing the fall term for drill in spelling, punctuation, and grammar. No college credit will be given for
Oglethorpe University 73
this work, but as soon as a student makes sufficient progress he may be given an opportunity to enter a regular Freshman section. No student will be per- mitted to take any advanced studies in this depart- ment until he has made a satisfactory record in Fresh- man English. Three hours.
English 141-2-3. English Bible. Old Testament. Two hours.
English 211-2-3. English Literature to 1800. Pre- requisite, English 111-2-3. This required course for Sophomores is a survey of English literature from Beowulf to Wordsworth. The selections are studied with special reference to their historical backgrounds. Students are given frequent practice in composition. They are required to use the library on special assign- ments, and they learn to take notes from lectures. In the study of the different examples of literature, types and forms are analyzed, including the simple elements of versification. Three hours.
English 251-2-3. English Bible. New Testament. Two hours.
The study will include the mastery of the history contained in the Bible, an analysis of each book, and such other matters as are required for the proper un- derstanding of the work. It will be treated not from a sectarian point of view, or as mere history or liter- ature. The aim will be to impart such a knowledge of the subject as every intelligent man should possess, enabling him to read his Bible with pleasure and profit.
The effort will be made to give the students the proper defense of seeming difficulties in the Bible, both for their own benefit, and that they may be able to meet the objections of unbelievers.

The Lowry School of Banking and Commerce
Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in Commerce
Mark Burrows, Dean
The aim of all instruction in the Lowry School of Banking and Commerce is to furnish the general basis of business facts, standards and theory which the be- ginner finds it difficult or impossible to acquire in his early business experience. It avoids any pretense of covering fully the practical details and routine and the special technique of the particular business or in- dustry which he will enter.
The Lowry School offers two regular courses of study, the General Business Course and the Account- ing course. The aim is to concentrate upon the fun- damentals of business, and with this in view every student is required to obtain a thorough knowledge of the basic subjects including accounting, finance, economics, and business law.
Those intending to teach commerce subjects in pub- lic high schools should take a sufficient number of electives in the field of Education to qualify them leg- ally for the Professional Teacher's Certificate. They are also urged to take shorthand and typewriting.

School of Physical Education
Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in Physical Education
John William Patrick, Dean
Its purpose is two-fold: To train, protect and de- velop the bodies of all the students of the University, and to offer a special training, equipping them for positions as physical directors and coaches in other schools, colleges and universities and in Y. M. C. A/s and the Army.
For the special preparation of students for positions as physical directors and coaches in high schools, prep schools and universities, a regular curriculum has been arranged offering instruction in certain sub- jects, the completion of which will lead to a degree of Bachelor of Arts in Physical Education.
The science courses listed are designed especial- ly for students of Physical Education. The courses are planned to awaken in the student an interest that shall be more compelling than that of a prescribed course. To this end instruction is based in so far as possible on direct observations made in demonstra- tion. Each organ is studied with reference to its development, anatomy and physiology. Bones, mus- cles, viscera, etc., have meaning when introduced in the light of their development. The facts observed are discussed in lectures and quizzes. Free use is made of charts, models, anatomical preparations and microscopic slides. Weekly quizzes are supplemented
Oglethorpe University 117
by written tests given upon the completion of some general division of the subject.

Intramural Athletics
In order to extend the benefits of organized ath- letic competition to all students of Oglethorpe Uni- versity, instead of only to those who take part in intercollegiate competition, the Department of Physi- cal Education sponsors the program of Intramural Athletics.
The purpose of the intramural department is to en- courage every student to participate in some or all intramural sports, to provide facilities for this par- ticipation, to organize and promote intramural com- petition, and to stand for fair play and true sports- manship.
This program includes competitive sports for every student on the campus. Students thus benefit from the wholesome effect of organized sports, and from the physical development which naturally follows.
Intramural competitors, strangers at first but later friends, learn courage, determination, and self con- trol. Qualities of loyalty, self-sacrifice and team play are also thoroughly ingrained in each individual through this program.
The fact that the intramural program provides con- tinuous competition in some sport throughout the school year assures each participating student of physical exercise every day of the school year. Too much emphasis cannot be placed on this particular phase of athletics.

Scholarships for Athletics
We are constantly receiving inquiries from pros- pective students concerning "athletic scholarships." The only scholarships offered by the University are given as rewards for exceptional high school and col- lege attainment. The only way in which a football or baseball player can receive aid at Oglethorpe is in the same way that other students are aided, by such self-help jobs as it may be possible for them to fill consistent with their week-end absences. These
Oglethorpe University 121
positions pay from twenty to forty cents per hour and if occupied industriously and efficiently will cov- er the student's college expenses in large part. The university must necessarily assign self-help students taking part in inter-collegiate athletics to such self- help positions as their engagements may permit them to hold.
Our endeavor and policy is to treat all students exactly alike, neither favoring nor discriminating against a boy who happens to be a fine football play- er.
Rules for Eligibility of Players in Inter-Collegiate Sports at Oglethorpe University
1. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports must be fully registered and qualified under the en- trance requirements of the University as published in the catalogue.
2. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports must carry at least twelve hours (24 semester hours) of standard college work.
3. All students engaging in varsity inter-collegiate sports must have passed not less than twelve hours of work during the preceding year.
4. No student at Oglethorpe University shall be shown any preferences financially or academically be- cause of engaging in inter-collegiate athletics, but the fact that the student engages in inter-collegiate sports shall not prejudice his selection in self-help positions open to all members of the student body.
5. Oglethorpe University will not, under any cir- cumstances, permit the payment of any moneys for
122 Oglethorpe University
the services of athletes, either by alumni, friends, or by the college itself.
6. The university assumes no responsibility for in- juries to students who engage in inter-collegiate ath- letics, but in lieu thereof will remit to those students who make the varsity or the first year squad a sum equivalent to their tuition, which sum is remitted for the purpose of paying hospital, doctor, dentist bills, etc., in case of injuries or treatments made nec- essary by their participation in any game and per- sonal assumption of the risks thereby involved.

ADULT EDUCATION DIVISION
H. J. Gaertner, Dean
The work is largely planned for those working for Bachelor's or Master's Degrees. Accordingly, Ogle- thorpe will date the educational history of each stu- dent and plan the work necessary for graduation.
In planning such work we see that certain definite studies must enter the curriculum of each student. For the Bachelor's degree, the student must have ful- filled the following requirements: Science, 6 year hours; Foreign Language, 5 or 6 year hours; Educa- tion, 12 year hours; English, 6 year hours; History, 3 year hours.
During recent years all Colleges have been working toward a better organized curriculum. It is this ten- dency that demands the above definite requirements. There is required a total of 62 year hours of accept- able credits. A minimum of fifteen year hours must be taken in Oglethorpe University.
For a detailed statement of the subjects offered, see pages 99 and 100 of this catalogue.
The Master's degree is based on the Bachelor's de- gree. The minimum requirement for the Master's is fifteen year hours.
A thesis, approved by the thesis committee, is also required. If the student wishes, however, he may take 3 year hours additional in lieu of a thesis.
In addition, Oglethorpe University offers a Summer Quarter divided into two terms of 5% weeks each. Concentrating intensively on a few subjects each class
124 Oglethorpe University
meets six times a week. Three hours each term or six hours during the quarter is the regular amount of credit earned. A year hour is two semester hours. By these plans teachers combining the year's work and summer school attendance will be able to receive their degree in a reasonable time.
At present the number of college graduates offer- ing for teaching places is so large that we are rap- idly approaching the time when college graduation will be required as a minimum for the profession.
Tuition is payable by term (or year hour) in ad- vance. However, arrangements can be made to di- vide this into two payments per term.

SUPPLEMENT TO STUDENT REGULATIONS
A student accumulating a total of ten unexcused absences from all classes in one term will forfeit one hour of credit and two quality points. A total of four absences in one term from the Tuesday morning As- sembly carries the same penalty.
All absences concerning illness are to be referred to and approved by Miss Feebeck, head of the infirmary. Absences concerning college affairs are to be referred to and approved by Dean Patrick. All absences are to be handed in to the Registrar's office, and students are not to be excused by any other faculty member.
Excused absences are those caused by illness, ab- sence from classes on account of college duties, or for other reasons approved by the dean.
Continued and deliberate cutting of classes may in- volve dismissal from the University.
Absences will be counted from the first regular class session, whether the student is enrolled at the time or not, unless excused by the Dean.
A student must pass at least 50 per cent of his work each term ; failure for two successive terms shall automatically cause the student to be dropped, provid- ed however that if such student has registered for the ensuing term he may continue until the completion thereof, and if he shall have exhibited a marked im- provement in his studies, the Dean of his department may recommend to the faculty the continuance of such student.
In the Summer School students must register with- in six days after beginning of each term.
Oglethorpe University 127
The Faculty and. Administrative Officers of the Uni- versity reserve to themselves the right to make any changes in any of the rules or regulations contained herein or to change any of the textbooks or other study material which they may deem advisable at any time. Notice of any change posted on the regu- lar Bulletin Board maintained by the University shall be sufficient.
THE CRYPT OF CIVILIZATION
Beneath the Administration building a Crypt fit- ted with a stainless steel door and lined with stain- less steel plates has been prepared for the reception of a collection of material representing a cross section of civilization of today and the sum total of human knowledge of our times. This consists of micro book records of all of the important books in the world, a complete photographic history of the United States since 1837, in still pictures, and since 1898, in motion pictures; and working models of all of our important inventions. All of this material will be sealed in con- tainers of glass from which the air has been evacuat- ed and replaced with an inert gas. The glass contain- ers are in turn placed inside transite and steel cases. When the material has been finally assembled the Crypt will be sealed, to remain inviolate for six thousand years. All of the material will be copied in duplicate on cellulose acetate film and on metal strips. Tests indicate that this will survive until the opening of the Crypt.
Historiographic Museum
This museum is now being established at Oglethorpe. It is the first photographic museum in the world. It is
128 Oglethorpe University
devoted entirely to the history of the United States as illustrated by still, sound, and motion pictures. The collection is already started at the University, and a building will be built to house it and an organization set in motion to carry on its work permanently. This will provide the greatest collection of contemporary American history available anywhere.

Athletics — Hermance Field
The magnificent generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Harry P. Hermance in giving to Oglethorpe an Athletic Sta- dium, makes feasible the development of all forms of field sports, including not only the great games of football and baseball, but also vaulting, jumping, dis- cus and javelin throwing, track work, etc. Physical culture for all students is required.
A sanely encouraging attitude is taken by the Uni- versity toward intercollegiate athletics, and Ogle- thorpe University is acquitting herself well in that sphere of her educational life.
The policy of Oglethorpe University includes the care of the physical life of our students as a matter of large importance. Regular instruction, looking to symmetrical development of the entire man will be given in the Athletic Department of the University, under competent medical guidance. Special attention is at present given to outdoor athletics. Adequate provision is being made for football and baseball grounds, tennis courts, etc. Work on Hermance Sta- dium has begun and a section is finished providing accommodations for five thousand spectators and participants.
Lake Phoebe
Besides having those sports common to all well equipped colleges in the South, Oglethorpe Univer- sity is the fortunate possessor of a beautiful lake covering eighty acres located conveniently to the Uni- versity campus, with a part of its shores set aside for a university boat house. This will enable the
Oglethorpe University 131
institution to add a crew to its list of athletic sports. The lake is admirably suited for boating, rowing, swimming and fishing.
Moral and Religious Atmosphere
The ability of a college or university to develop worthy character in its students depends largely upon that indefinable quality called college atmosphere. As a mother, she breathes her own soul into her boys. They inherit all she has been through, all of her labor and strength and faith and prayer. If her judg- ments have been bought out with money, they inherit that; if with blood, they inherit that. Every storm through which she has passed strengthens them for their own conflicts in the days that are to come.
Oglethorpe is a daughter of battle and faith and prayer. God alone built her, touching the hearts of multitudes of His children at the voice of her call. Alone of all the prominent ante-bellum universities she died for her ideals, and her alone of all the uni- versities of America, God raised from the dead.
By her every battle, her every faith, her every tri- umph, she has learned what things are really worth while and what hand really to lean upon. She will tell her children of Him.
Libraries
By the generosity of many friends, so great as to be almost unparalleled, and by purchase from special funds provided, the university received during the first year of its life approximately fifty thousand vol- umes for the library. These consist of standard works in Literature, History and Science, with many
132 Oglethorpe University
valuable reference works in special departments. The private libraries of Dr. Aldrich in Science, of Dr. Nic- olassen in the Classics and of Dr. Burrows in Edu- cation are all available for the use of the students in these departments. The policy of the institution is to let no year go by without the enlargement of the library. A competent librarian is in charge, and the rooms will be open during the year of 1938-39 from 7:30 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. The Carnegie Library of Atlanta is also available for the use of our students.
King Library of English
By the splendid generosity of Dr. Cheston King the university has a library of English with some seven- teen thousand books and pamphlets.
Special Religious Services
Regular assembly exercises which the students are required to attend, are conducted by each of the mem- bers of the faculty in turn. During the last three years daily preaching services have been held for one or two weeks in the Oglethorpe Auditorium.
Oglethorpe Coat-of-Arms
Among the unique honors offered at the university is the presentation of a sweater with the Coat-of- Arms blazoned thereon, which will be awarded in the future under the terms of the following resolution unanimously adopted by the Faculty of the univer- sity, upon recommendation of the President:
"Resolved, that on and after September 1st, 1922, the Coat-of-Arms of Oglethorpe University shall be
Oglethorpe University
133
given to those students carrying a minimum of fifteen hours weekly, of excellent personal character and con- duct, whose general average for all the courses taken during five preceding consecutive terms shall have been not less than 93, or who, in lieu of said general average, shall have so distinguished themselves in some intellectual, creative, or constructive accomplish- ment as to entitle them thereto in the judgment of the faculty."

The Oglethorpe Idea
Quality is the word that expresses the Oglethorpe idea — quality in location, in climate, in campus, in ar- chitecture, in student character, in college life, in ath- letics and sports, in faculty, in curriculum and in re- ligion and morals. Every one of these we offer at Oglethorpe.
Located in the commercial and educational capital of the South, with an unrivaled climate, on the most distinguished street in that city, on a most beautiful campus of over six hundred acres of woodland and meadow, including an eighty acre lake which belongs to our students for swimming, boating and fishing, the physical advantages offered by Oglethorpe Univ- ersity are unsurpassed anywhere in the section.
Oglethorpe University 135
One by one a splendid body of buildings is being erected on its campus. Every one of them will be of granite trimmed with limestone and covered with variegated slates. All of them will be as fire proof as human skill can make them, and as commodious and comfortable as our architects can plan them. They will be like the first buildings already erected, which are believed to be the safest, most beautiful and most efficient college or university buildings in the South- east.
The Oglethorpe Site— Atlanta
The attractions of the city of Atlanta as an educa- tional center are fast making it one of the great in- tellectual dynamos of the nation. Gifted with a soft Southern mountain climate, convenient of access to the entire nation over its many lines of railway, known everywhere as the center of Southern activities, she draws to herself as to a magnet the great minds of the nation and the world. Hither come lecturers, mu- sicians, statesmen, evangelists, editors, teachers and officials of the United States. An intellectual atmos- phere created by such conditions and the frequent op- portunity of contact with these leaders in all branches of human activity, offered frequently to our students, give Oglethorpe University an advantage of position and of opportunity which she will cultivate to the ut- most. Facilities for hearing and meeting the great musicians and authors and public speakers and the leaders in all spheres of intellectual activity are offer- ed our students. The tremendous influence of such contact upon the young lives committed to us will be felt in their increased ambition and redoubled deter- mination to perform, themselves, their duty to their race and their God.
136 Oglethorpe University
Silent Faculty at Oglethorpe
It is not going too far to say that the aesthetic tastes and home habits of many young men are ruined at college by the cheap and unattractive furnishings of their rooms and the ugly forbidding architecture of the buildings, whose walls often deface their cam- pus. The architecture of an institution of learning should be a constant source of delight and inspiration to its students, teaching quietly but surely the highest ideals of life. Indeed all those qualities of soul we know as honesty, solidity, dignity, durability, rever- ence and beauty may be expressed in the face of a building and are so expressed on the Oglethorpe campus.
Not less important are the personal surroundings of the student's room. Cheap, ugly and ill-equipped apartments have exactly the same influence on the soul of a boy that cheap, ugly and ill-equipped human companions have. That is why the rooms at Ogle- thorpe are handsomely furnished. The sons of the poor are entitled to the information and inspiration such surroundings offer, and the sons of the rich will deteriorate without them.
In brief the college education that does not teach a love of beauty and tidiness and what is popularly called decency is essentially and dangerously defective.
This is the special work of the silent faculty at Oglethorpe.
The Exceptional Opportunities of Our Personal Attention
Young men who desire to enjoy the daily personal
Oglethorpe University 137
contact and instruction of the heads of departments will note with interest that Oglethorpe offers excep- tional opportunities of that nature. It is well known that in all our large institutions only the upper class- men come into any close contact with the full profes- sors, who as heads of departments occupy their time in other matters than in educating freshmen.
We believe in giving our freshmen the best we have, and they will be taught by men who have taught in or had offered them, chairs in the greatest universities of America. This will be a permanent policy at Oglethorpe.
Public Utilities
Oglethorpe University has the double advantage of being located in the suburbs of Atlanta, so far out as not to be subject to the distractions of city life, yet so near in as to enjoy all the public utilities of a great city. Among these are city water, electric lights, city trolley line, telephone and telegraph service, and in addition thereto the University has its own postoffice, express office and railway station, all known as Ogle- thorpe University, Georgia.

One of the most remarkable gatherings, even in this city of remarkable gatherings, was the assemb- ling of approximately two hundred of the represen- tative women of the city of Atlanta at the home of President Thornwell Jacobs, Saturday afternoon, No- vember 25, 1916, to organize a Woman's Board for Oglethorpe University.
The purpose of the Board is to aid the University
138 Oglethorpe University
in every wise and efficient way, with counsel of, and guidance by the proper authorities of the institution. Already more than four hundred of the finest work- ers and most representative women of the city have offered their services and joined the organization. Their activities are directed toward the support and development of Oglethorpe in every phase of its growth and activities. Each of the ladies is assigned to the committee on which she feels she is best able to serve. These committees cover the various depart- ments of the University. They are: Ways and Means, Finance, Grounds, Press, Entertainment, Hospital, Music, Library, Arts, Refreshments, Transportation, and such other committees as it may seem wise to the Board from time to time to appoint.
The authorities of the University welcome the for- mation of this organization with the greatest joy.
The mere fact that they have promised a devoted allegiance to the enterprise has its own genuine value, but those who know the women of Atlanta, with their marvelous capacity for earnest and consecrated work directed by a swift and accurate intelligence, will realize what must be the results of the efficient aid which they are giving to the institution.
The Woman's Board has established a permanent endowment fund, and has been incorporated under the laws of Georgia in preparation for handling funds donated or bequeathed to the University through the Woman's Board.
Officers and Chairmen of the various committees for the year 1936-37 are as follows:
President, Mrs. Hugh Bancker; 1st Vice-President,

Historical
(From a copy of the Milledgeville Journal, September 5, 19S7, presented to the University library by Miss Emma Thomas, of Athens, Georgia, the great-granddaughter of Mr. B. P. Stubbs, Secretary, who signed the notice in behalf of the Ex- ecutive Committee.)
Oglethorpe University
It has already been announced, that this Institution will commence its exercises on the first Monday of January, 1838. The Board of Trustees, while again calling public attention to this fact, offer some remarks in explanation to a new feature which they may have given to its character.
The University will consist of three departments, Collegiate, Academic, and Primary.
Any person desirous of seeing the laws which govern the Collegiate department, can obtain a copy of the pamphlet con- taining them, by application to B. P. Stubbs, of this place, Sec- retary and Treasurer of the Board.
Candidates for admission into the Freshman Class, must be prepared to stand an examination on Caesar's Commentaries, four books, Cicero's Select Orations, Mair's Introduction to
182
Oglethorpe University
Latin Syntax, the Gospels in the Greek Testament, Dalpel'a Grammar, including Latin Prosody; also, on English Gram- mar, Arithmetic and Geography, ancient and modern.
The course of instruction in the several classes, will be as follows, towit:
FRESHMAN CLASS
WINTER SESSION Cicero de Amicitia, Graeca Majora, Latin and Greek Exercises, Algebra (Davis), Geography
SUMMER SESSION Cicero de Officiis and Horace
(Odes) Graeca Majora, Latin and Greek Exercises Roman Antiquities.
SOPHOMORE CLASS
WINTER SESSION Horace, (Satires and Ars
Poetica,) Graeca Majora Geometry (Playf air's Euclid) Plane Trigonometry, Lectures on History
(Priestly)
SUMMER SESSION Livy,
Graeca Majora, Plane Trigonometry, Navigation, Mensuration, (Day's) Surveying, (Day's) History.
JUNIOR CLASS
WINTER SESSION Spherical Trigonometry, Analytic Geometry, (Includ- ing Conic Sections) Descriptive Geometry, Differential Calculus, Nautical Astronomy, Evidences of Christianity, Cicero de Oratore, Longinus,
SUMMER SESSION Integral Calculus (Young's) Natural Philosophy, Cicero de Oratore, Longinus, Natural Theology, Logic.
SENIOR CLASS
SUMMER SESSION Moral Philosophy, Astronomy, Chemistry. Languages, General Review.
WINTER SESSION
Belles Lettres, Philosophy, Moral Philosophy, Natural Philosophy, Quintilian, Chemistry,
(Provision will also be made for instruction in Modern Languages)
The Academic Department will consist of those who are preparing for entrance into this or any other college.
Oglethorpe University 183
The Primary Department will be composed of those pur- suing the ordinary branches of an English education.
The students of these two departments as well as the Col- legiate, will be instructed by the Faculty of the College.
In consequence of this arrangement, boys, in the early stage of their literary course, will enjoy advantages perhaps un- surpassed in this country, as they will be taught by a regular Faculty, while the students of the college will receive the full amount of instruction ordinarily given them, as will be seen by a reference to the course of study. This system will vastly increase the labor of the Faculty; this labor they have how- ever consented to undergo.
The adoption of this new plan has been caused by the pecu- liar state of the times. Though the amount on our subscrip- tion list is sufficient to warrant the commencement of the work in its original form, yet from the present state of affairs, it would have been more than indelicate to call upon many in- dividuals for their subscriptions. On the other hand, many parents have been making arrangements to send their sons to Midway during the next year. Such persons it would be painful to disappoint, yet it would be impossible to proceed for want of surplus in hand. The course now announced as being adopted, was then proposed — that is, to bring the Acad- emy and College under the government and instruction of the same President and Professors. By this arrangement the ex- pense of the institution will be sustained, and all difficulties in its way removed.
The Board of Trustees takes this occasion to say that this year the Steward's Hall will be discontinued. This is done, that there may be no hindrance in the way of such persons as may wish to move to Midway for the purpose of taking boarders.
The Trustees close this communication by suggesting to parents, (who desire their children to be educated, and who cannot afford to send them abroad for this purpose) the pro- priety of settling themselves at Midway. By taking boarders, the expenses of their family could be more sustained, and their children of all ages receive thorough and finished edu- cation. To others disposed to turn their attention to keeping boarders as a business, we would suggest that Midway offers inducements inferior to few if any other positions at the South — a healthy and delightful location, and as many boarders as they may be able to accommodate.
By order of the Executive Committee.
B. P. STUBBS, Secretary. July, 11th.
