General Information 

History 

Southern Missionary College, a Seventh-day Adventist institution, 
was founded in 1893 as Southern Training School, at Graysville, Tennes- 
see. Twenty-three years later the school was moved to Collegedale, Ten- 
nessee; and there, in 1916, it was reopened as Southern Junior College. 
The exigencies of a rapidly expanding student body necessitated the trans- 
fer, in the spiring of 1944, to senior college status, and the first 
four-year seniors were graduated from Southern Missionary College in 
1946. , 

In 1945 a $300,000 building program was begun. Currently in the 
process of construction are several additions to the college campus in- 
cluding a library, an auditorium-music building, a science building, a 
gymnasium, and a swimming pool. 

Southern Missionary College is incorporated under the laws of the 
State of Tennessee, the Board of Trustees assuming entire responsibility 
for the financial support and management of the institution. 



Objectives and Scope 

Southern Missionary College offers facilities for a liberal education 
in literature, science, and the arts; for special training in diversified fields; 
and for preprofessional courses for those planning to enter schools of 
medicine, nursing, and dentistry. Programs may be planned leading to 
the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science in various curricula, 
and Bachelor of Arts in Theology. 

It is the conviction of the college that its resources should be used 
as efficiently as possible in preparing students to enter religious, pro- 
fessional, business, and vocational fields of endeavor. Students are incul- 
cated with the ideals of veracious scholarship, honest labor, and, above 
all, with the ideals of moral rectitude, integrity, and nobility of character. 



Location 

Southern Missionary College is located on a one-thousand-acre estate 
in a valley eighteen miles east of Chattanooga™ Yhe Southern Railway 
passes through the institutional estate. 

The campus lies three miles from Ooltewah, junction point of the 
Atlanta and Knoxville divisions of the Southern Railway. Ooltewah is 
also on the Lee Highway No. 11, which connects Washington, D. C, and 
other cities in the East with Chattanooga and other southern points. 



14 Southern Missionary College 

Daily bus service to Chattanooga and tri-weekly town trips by the 
college station wagon provide students with ample transportation facilities. 
The Chattanooga airport is located only a few miles from the college. 

Accreditation 

The junior college years at Southern Missionary College are fully 
accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary 
Schools, by the Tennessee State Department of Education, and by the 
Seventh-day Adventist Board of Regents The college is a member of 
the American Association of Junior Colleges, the Southern Association 
of Private Schools, the Tennessee College Association, and the Mid-South 
Association of Private Schools. 

1946 Summer Session 

The college conducts a ten-week summer session beginning June 
17. A normal scholastic load for the summer term is nine hours; ten 
hours is the maximum load. 

The Summer Session Announcement of Southern Missionary College, 
containing detailed statements of the several courses and information of 
general interest to students, will be sent on application to the Director of 
the Summer Session. 

Veterans 

The United States Veterans' Administration has approved Southern 
Missionary College as an institution for training under Public Law 16 — 
Vocational Rehabilitation Act, and Public Law 346 — the Servicemen's 
Readjustment Act of 1944 (G.I. Bill of Rights). The college, therefore, 
encourages the enrollment of demobilized students and offers its facilities 
to those qualified for attendance. The rules for admission and continued 
registration for demobilized students are in general the same as those for 
other students, except that veterans who have not completed a high school 
course may qualify for admission to Southern Missionary College by pass- 
ing successfully the General Educational Development test at the high 
school level. 

Veterans who are contemplating a period of training under the pro- 
visions of the G.I. Bill of Rights should have sent to the college for 
consideration with their application for admission, their application for 
credit for educational achievement during military service. 

Veterans of World War II no longer on active duty may apply for 
high school dr, college credit by writing directly to the Registrar of the 
college, and by inclosing with their letter a cerified copy of W.D., A. G. 
O. Form 100, Separation Qualifiation Record; or Notice of Separation 



General Information 15 

from the Naval Service, NavPers 553; or U.S.M.C. Report of Separation; 
or Notice of Separation from the U. S. Naval Service—Coast Guard, 553. 
In the case of Naval commissioned or warrant officers, the Officer's Quali- 
fication Record Jacket (NavPers 305), a certified copy thereof, or a state- 
ment from the Bureau of Naval Personnel covering the data desired 
should be submitted to the college. 

The Army Form (A.G.O. Form 100, Separation Qualification Re- 
cord,) indicated in the above paragraph has been in use only since the 
establishment of Army Separation Centers. Persons discharged before 
these centers were in operation will not have available A.G.O. Form 100 
and few of them will have made arrangements to file a USAFI Form 47, 
Application for Credit for Educational Achievement During Military 
Service. 

Army veterans separated from the service prior to the institution of 
the Army Separation Qualification Record (W. D., A. G. O. Form 100) 
may secure an official statement from the Army of their service training 
and education, excluding courses administered by the United States 
Armed Forces Institute, by directing a request to the Adjutant General, 
Washington 25, D. C. Each request should contain the following informa- 
tion: 

1. Full name (given name, middle initial, and surname). 

2. Army Serial Number (enlisted, officer, or both where applicable). 

3. Statement of desired information. 

4. Names and locations of service schools attended, date entered, 
name of course (s) , and any additional data which would assist the Ad- 
jutant General in preparing the desired statement. 

Governing Standards 

Southern Missionary College is open to any high school or academy 
graduate who is qualified to pursue with profit the courses of study 
offered at the college. Veterans who have not finished high school may 
qualify for admission by passing successfully the General Educational 
Development test at the high school level. 

Of paramount importance, in the judgment of the college, is the 
religious phase of the student's education. Students applying for entrance 
to the college thereby pledge themselves to maintain the Christian 
standards of the institution, to attend all regularly scheduled religious 
services, and to give due 'respect to things spiritual. 

Any student who does not maintain a satisfactory scholarship or in- 
dustrial record, or who, in the judgment of the faculty or its duly author- 
ized committees, is unresponsive or non-cooperative in his relation to the 
objectives of the college, may be dismissed without specific charges. 



16 Southern Missionary College 

Moral Conduct. Students must abstain from indecent or disorderly 
behavior, from profane or unbecoming language, from the use of tobacco 
and alcohol, from reading pernicious literature, from playing cards, from 
visiting pool rooms or gambling places, from attending the opera, the 
motion picture theater, dances, or any other entertainment not approved 
by the college. 

Automobiles. All unmarried students not residing with their parents 
or legal guardians are not allowed, except by permission of the president, 
to maintain and operate motor vehicles. This regulation prohibits the 
operation not only of automobiles owned by students but of those owned 
by other persons but placed in the custody of, or lent, or rented to, 
students. 

Leave of Absence. Permission for ordinary leave of absence from 
the campus is to be obtained from the dean of men or the dean of women. 
The Students' Handbook should be consulted for information regarding 
week-end and other special leaves^. 

Marriages. A student marrying during the school year is requested 
to withdraw. A clandestine marriage may disqualify an applicant for 
acceptance as a student, or may be cause for his dismissal if learned of 
after he has enrolled. 

Announced Regulations. Any regulation adopted by the faculty 
and announced to the students will have the same force as those printed 
in the catalogue or in the Students' Handbook. 

Extracurricular Services and Activities 

Counseling and Guidance. The counseling service of the college 
is designed to supplement the instructional program by providing oppor- 
tunity for the guidance of every student. Each lower division student 
selects his faculty adviser; the student's major professor is his adviser 
during the last two years. The adviser endeavors to help the student 
adjust his entire program to his individual needs, capacities, and talents, 
so that it will contribute to his success in college and in after life. 

Residence. All unmarried students who do not live with their par- 
ents, near relatives, or legal guardians, are expected to live in the residence 
halls on the campus. Exceptions may be made occasionally for reasons 
approved by the administrative officers of the college. 

Information as to room furnishings to be supplied by the student is 
given in the Students' Handbook, which is mailed to each person who 
applies for admission, or is otherwise available upon request. 

Health Service. The health service is under the direction of a resi- 
dent registered nurse. It includes physical check-ups and examinations, 
clinical and infirmary service, isolation and protection in the case of

infectious or contagious diseases, health education, and supervision of 
sanitation. 

Religious Life and Campus Organizations. The local church, 
the Sabbath school, the Missionary Volunteer society and its auxiliaries, 
the Gospel Workers' Seminar, the colporteur band, the mission study 
groups, and the prayer bands contribute to the devotional and prayer life 
of the student and afford opportunities for training in leadership, teach- 
ing, and church endeavors. 

Organizations of interest especially to theological students, those en- 
rolled in the Bible Instructors' curriculum, and the wives of those pre- 
paring for the ministry, are the Apollos club, the I. H. Evans Fellowship, 
the Apollos Women's Guild, and the Bible Instructors' club. 

Other organizations which meet the needs of groups with special 
cultural and scholastic interests are the International Relations Club, the 
Future Teachers of America, several music organizations, and the clubs 
in the school homes. 

Participation in Extracurricular Activities. The extent to 
which students may participate in extracurricular activities is subject to 
regulation, in order to help them maintain satisfactory standards of schol- 
arship. 

Convocation, the Lyceum, Athletics. At various times during 
the school year distinguished speakers address the students at the chapel 
hour. A lyceum course of lectures, travelogues, and musical numbers, is 
sponsored by the college. Students of Southern Missionary College do 
not participate in intercollegiate athletics, but a program of recreational 
activities is maintained. 

Financial Aid. In the operation of the college, a large volume of 
employment is offered to students. Under the guidance of skilled super- 
visors, this work affords valuable training, and brings a college education 
wfthin the reach of many who would otherwise find it impossible to 
attend school. 

Publications. Under the direction of a sponsor appointed from the 
faculty, the students edit and publish biweekly The Southern Accent, 
which gives the news of the campus and vicinity. Southern Memories, 
the yearbook of the college, is published by a student staff under the 
supervision of a faculty adviser.

Expenses 



Each student entering the college defrays only a part of the actual 
cost of his instruction and maintenance. The total expense is not entirely 
met by the amount of cash paid or labor performed in accordance with 
the requirements of the figures set forth in this section. The operating 
deficit of the college is covered by gifts, subsidies, and funds from other 
sources. The educational opportunity afforded each student in Southern 
Missionary College represents a large investment in buildings and equip- 
ment, averaging more than two thousand dollars for each student en- 
rolled. 



Dormitory Room Deposit 

Dormitory rooms may be reserved by mailing a $10.00 room deposit to 
the college between May 1 and Sept. 1. This deposit will appear as a 
credit on the first statement of the first semester. It cannot be applied 
as part payment of the advance deposit or general fees. 

In case the student's application is not accepted or if notification of 
non-attendance is given the college by Sept. 1, the room deposit will be 
refunded at once by check. 



Advance Deposit and General Fees 

Advance Deposit — Dormitory Students $50.00 

Matriculation Fee 5.00 

Library Fee 3.50 

Lyceum Fee 1.50 

Publications Fee, The Southern Accent 1.00 



$61.00 

The above deposit and fees are payable on or before the date of 
registration. The advance deposit will be credited on the final statement 
of the school year or at the time of withdrawal. The matriculation fee 
is not refundable. The library and lyceum fees will be credited only if the 
student withdraws within the first two weeks of the semester. 

The advance deposit and publications fee are charged only once during 
the year; the remaining fees are charged each semester. 

Resident students are charged the same general fees as outlined above 
but the advance deposit is $20.00.

Tuition 

The charges for college tuition for the regular school year of nine 
periods are as follows: 

Each School Year 

Period (9 periods) 

18 Semester Hours $26.00 $234.00 

*16 Semester Hours 24.00 216.00 

12 Semester Hours 20.00 180.00 

8 Semester Hours 16.00 144.00 

It is assumed that all young people come to Southern Missionary Col- 
lege for the express purpose of obtaining an education, and since those 
working their entire way have time for one-half of a full class load, each 
student is urged to carry at least half school work. As an encouragement 
to do this, a minimum charge for tuition will be made on that basis. 

Private work is discouraged, and no credit will be given for it unless 
satisfactory arrangements have been made in advance with the registrar. 
The charge for private work is the same as regular tuition, plus tutoring 
fee. 

Tuition refund will be made only upon presentation of a drop vouch- 
er obtained at the registrar's office. The charge will stop at the end of the 
week in which the drop voucher is obtained. 

Students entering late will be charged tuition from the beginning of 
the semester, unless they have been attending school elsewhere to the time 
of their enrollment here and no make-up work is necessary. 

Period Music Charges 

The charge for any private music instruction is $5.00 per four-week 
period. All students taking music must enroll for it at the registrar's 
office and are expected to continue lessons for at least one semester. 

Period charges are on a regular tuition basis with no refunds for speci- 
fied vacation periods or lessons missed because of student absences. In 
case of prolonged illness, charges will be adjusted by the director of 
music. 



* Sixteen semester hours are considered full school work. 



22 Southern Missionary Collbgb 

The regular family discount on music charges is allowed only when 
three or more students from the same family take music lessons. See the 
discount section for further information. 

Board Charges 

The cafeteria plan of boarding is used, which allows a student the 
privilege ol choosing his food and paying for only what he selects. The 
minimum period charge for dormitory students is $15.00 for young wo- 
men and $18.00 for young men. The average board for young women is 
about $20.50 per period, and for young men is about $25.50 per period. 
No allowance is made for absence from the campus except for specified 
vacations of one week or more, and in case of emergency. Three meals 
a day are served. Students living in the school homes are expected'to take 
their meals in the dining room. 

The rationing plan as administered by the government requires stu- 
dents to bring with them all food rationing books. These must remain 
in the custody of the college until the student officially withdraws. 

Dormitory Rent 

A room charge of $12.00 per period is made to each student who 
resides in a school home, except to one occupying a room with private 
bath in the new addition of the women's dormitory, in which case the 
charge will be $14.00. On this basis two students are expected to occupy 
one room. The charge includes steam heat and a maximum of 120 watts 
of electric light. In cases where three students must occupy one room the 
period charge will be $10.00. No refund is made because of absence 
from the campus either for regular vacation periods or for other reasons. 

Laundry Charges 

The minimum laundry charge is $2.50 per four-week period. If the 
total expense for the period on a piece basis exceeds this, the actual 
charge, rather than the minimum, is made. 

Medical Charges 

Medical care is charged for at the rate of $1.00 per period for a 
boarding student and fifty cents for a resident student. This includes 
dispensary service and general nursing care not to exceed two weeks. A 
charge of ten cents is made when tray service is required. The medical 
rate quoted does not cover the charge for visits to a student made by a 

f>hysician, special nursing care, or calls by the school nurse to students 
iving outside the school home. No refund is made because of absence 
from the campus either for regular vacation periods or for other reasons. 

Tithe and Church Expense 
Southern Missionary College encourages the payment of tithe and 



Expenses ■ 23 

church expense by its student workers. In order to facilitate this practice, 
arrangements may be made at the beginning of both the fall and summer 
terms for students to have charged to their account ten per cent of their 
earnings for tithe and one per cent for church expense. These funds are 
then transferred by the school to the treasurer of the Collegedale S. D. A. 
church. 

Change of Program 

When a student drops any of his class work or leaves school, he must 
present to the business office a drop voucher from the registrar's office. 
Tuition will be charged until the end of the week in which such voucher 
is received. Two weeks will be allowed at the beginning of each semester 
for a change of program without charge. The regular charge is $1.00. 

Personal Expense 

Students should be provided with sufficient funds, in addition to 
money for school expenses, to cover cost of books, clothing, and all per- 
sonal items. We urge that all prospective students have their eyes tested 
by a competent oculist and necessary dental work cared for before enter- 
ing school. 

All purchases from the college store or from other departments on the 
campus must be paid for in cash. No charge accounts are accepted. 

Student Trust Funds 

Students who may wish to place surplus funds in safe keeping, sub- 
ject to withdrawal in person only, may open deposit accounts at the busi- 
ness office. These deposit accounts are in no way related to the regular 
student period statements and cash may be withdrawn from them at any 
time as long as a credit remains on deposit in the student trust fund. 

Cash Withdrawals on Period Statements 

Cash withdrawals by students to be charged to the period statement 
are discouraged unless special arrangements are made with the treasurer by 
the parents or guardians in advance. Work students on Plan IV may 
draw reasonable sums of cash on account as long as a $25.00 credit bal- 
ance is maintained on their current period statement. 

Employment of Students 

The college endeavors through its numerous vocational opportunities 
to open the way for student self-help — a valuable part of training for life. 
Because of reconversion problems, which are affecting the school indus- 
tries, it is urged that all parents and guardians recognize the importance 



24 Southern Missionary College 

of reducing the number of hours which each student must spend in manual 
labor and of increasing the amount of payments in cash. 

In the interest of a well-balanced program of study, work, exercise, 
and rest, the college recommends that in general students follow Plan I 
or II. A limited number of students who are very industrious and frugal 
succeed, by carrying certain kinds of work, in earning the entire cost of 
their education. Only those with a serious purpose and a firm determina- 
tion should expect to be thus successful, and then only on a restricted class 
program. 

Many letters are received inquiring whether students can work for 
their expenses, wholly or in part. All the college can promise is that to 
those who prove themselves efficient and worthy, such work as is available 
will be furnished. Since the work of the college is performed mainly by 
students, those who are willing and capable will probably find all the 
labor that their school program will allow them to perform. 

The school will assign students to departments where work is avail- 
able and cannot shift students from one department to another merely 
upon request. It should be understood that once a student is assigned 
work in a given department, he will remain there for the entire school 
year except in rare cases where changes are recommended by the school 
nurse, or are made at the discretion of the college. 

Should a student find it necessary to be absent from work, he must 
immediately make arrangements with his work superintendent. In cases 
of illness, he will also inform the health service. For tardiness, or fail- 
ure to report to work without making satisfactory arrangements, a student 
is liable to a fine and may be required to make up all work missed. 

Scholarships 

Colporteur Scholarships. For the encouragement of colporteurs, 
the college, together with the local conference, book and Bible house, and 
publishing house, offers a very liberal scholarship bonus. 

No additional regular cash discounts are allowed in cases where a 
colporteur scholarship bonus is granted. 

In order to qualify for this scholarship, a man needs to spend in the 
colporteur work a minimum of 400 hours; a woman, 350 hours. Through 
the benefits of a colporteur scholarship, it is possible for a college student 
to meet the cash requirement of Plan I by selling only $710.14 worth 
of subscription books. An academy student may meet the cash require- 
ment of Plan I by selling only $631.00 worth of subscription books. The 
details of the plan are as follows: 



Expenses 25 

College Academy 
Cash earnings (50 per cent of sales shown above) $355.07 $315.50 
Scholarship 152.17 135.22 

Total cash requirement for Plan I $507.24 $450.72 

If the earnings are less than required for a full scholarship, the 
bonus and discount are proportionately smaller. Labor credit may be 
earned at the college to make up the additional amount required for 
any of the regular plans. 

Tuition Scholarships. Each year the college, in conjunction with 
the several local conferences of the Southern Union Conference, awards 
eleven $50 cash scholarships to be applied on tuition: $25 at the end 
of the first semester and $25 at the end of the second. The candidates 
are chosen as follows: The faculty of each designated school nominates 
its candidate; the name, if approved by the school board, is recommended 
to the educational board of the local conference, for final approval. 
The selection of nominees is based on character, scholarship, personality, 
and promise of future leadership. The names of the nominees are an- 
nounced at the time of commencement at the college. The following 
schools are eligible to participate in this plan: 

Asheville Agricultural School 
Atlanta Academy 
Collegedale Academy QlJ) 
Forest Lake Academy (2) 
Highland Academy 
Pewee Valley Academy 
Pine Forest Academy 
Pisgah Institute 

Prospective Teachers' Scholarships. The Southern Union Con- 
ference Executive Committee has adopted the following recommendation 
which became effective in the fall of 1943: 

Voted: that we recommend to each local conference the setting up of three 
$100.00 scholarships annually to help provide for the first year normal work of 
prospective church school teachers who have completed their secondary education, 
the beneficiaries to be selected by each local conference educational committee, 
and that they be required to teach at least two consecutive years following gradua- 
tion in the conference granting such scholarship. In the event that the beneficiary 
does not fulfill his part of the agreement, the scholarship will become a debt 
payable to the conference immediately. 

In addition to the above, we recommend the continuation of scholarships by 
the conferences in the sum of $100.00 instead of; $50.00 as formerly, to Southern 
Missionary College, for students from each conference who are completing the 



26 Southern Missionary College 

second semester of the final year of the Teacher Training Course, and who other- 
wise are not financially able to complete the year's work, upon the following 
conditions: 

1. Are recommended by the President and the Director of Teacher Training 
of Southern Missionary College. 

2. Are recommended by the Educational Committee of the load conference 
and appproved by the conference committee. 

3. Are pledged to give two consecutive years of teaching service in their own 
conference. 

It is understood that in the case of any beneficiary receiving both scholarships, 
the teaching service required will be only a total of two years. 

Educational Fund 

Many young people are deprived of the privilege of attending college 
because of a lack of necessary means. To aid these, an earnest effort: has 
been made to obtain donations for the establishment of an educational 
fund, from which students worthy of help may borrow money ror a 
reasonable length of time. Faithfulness in refunding these Joans will 
make it possible for the same money to assist many students in school. 
There have been some gifts, and they have been used to help several 
young men and women complete their work in this college. But the 
needs of worthy students have been greater than the funds on hand, con- 
sequently it has been impossible in many instances to render the desired 
assistance. It has therefore been decided to direct the attention of patrons 
and friends of the school to these facts and to invite them to give such 
means as they may desire to devote to this purpose. The college will be 
glad to correspond with any who think favorably of this plan, and will 
continue to use the gifts so that the wishes of the donors may be fulfilled 
and the best results obtained. 

"In each conference a fund should be raised to lend to worthy poor 
students who desire to give themselves to the missionary work; and in 
some cases they should receive donations. When the Battle Creek Col- 
lege was first started, there was a fund placed in the Review and Herald 
office for the benefit of those who wished to obtain an education, but 
had not the means. This was used by several students until they could 
get a good start; then from their earnings they would replace what they 
had drawn, so that others might be benefited by the fund. The youth 
should have it plainly set before them that they must work their own way 
as far as possible and thus partly defray their expenses. That which costs 
little will be appreciated little. But that which costs a price somewhere 
near its real value will be estimated accordingly." — Testimonies, Vol. 6, 
pages 213, 214. 



Expenses 27 

Payment of Accounts 

Charges for tuition, board, dormitory expense, etc., will be made 
each four-week or five-week period, and a statement will be issued to each 
student. The college board has made the costs as low as is consistent 
with educational efficiency. The school, therefore, must expect prompt 
payment of all outstanding accounts. Failure to pay promptly may ter- 
minate a student's connection with the school. 

At the beginning of the first semester all students will register for 
both semesters. At the beginning of the second semester students' ac- 
counts must be in balance before they may continue in attendance. Tran- 
scripts of credits and diplomas are issued only to students whose accounts 
are paid in full. 

Post-dated checks are not acceptable. 

Discounts. A cash discount of five per cent is allowed on the bal- 
ance due the school for the current period's expenses less labor credits, 
if paid within the discount period of fifteen days from date of statement. 
Where an advance payment of at least $150 is made, an additional two 
per cent discount is allowed. 

The fiscal year is divided into twelve periods whose dosing dates 
are as follows, and statements will bear these dates: 



July 6 


Nov. 9 


March 8 


Aug. 3 


Dec. 7 


April 5 


Sept. 7 


Jan. 11 


May 3 


Oct. 12 


Feb. 8 


May 31 



Where there are three or more students from one family, a twenty-five 

per cent discount will be allowed on the total charge for the three highest 

tuition rates, and any students beyond three from one family will be 

accepted at no further charge. This rate applies only to tuition, and is 

. applicable to both dormitory and resident students. 

Missionaries on furlough, or their dependents, are allowed, during the 
! first year of furlough, a fifty per cent discount on tuition only, provided 
I the remaining expenses are paid before the close of the discount period. 
; The children of foreign missionaries in active service are granted a dis- 
■ count of fifty per cent on tuition on these same conditions. This conces- 
sion does not apply to students who earn through labor fifty per cent or 



I more of their expenses. 



General Academic Regulations 

Admission 

Application Procedure. An applicant for admission will fill out 
and mail to the registrar an application blank from the Bulletin, or one 
furnished, upon request, by the college. The applicant will also send a

all previous secondary school credits (and college credits, if any) , should 
be sent to the registrar soon after the close of the school year. If the 
application for admission is not received at least two weeks before the 
opening of the school year, it may not be possible for the applicant to be 
notified of his status so he can enter on the opening date. 

Transcripts of credk accepted toward admission become the property

Freshman Standing. Graduates of accredited four-year secondary 
schools are admitted to freshman standing upon properly certified tran- 
script of credits, but such students may have subject deficiencies to make 
up. 

Graduates of unaccredited schools, whose official transcripts show 
sixteen acceptable units, may qualify for freshman standing by passing 
such entrance examinations as may be required. 

Conditional freshman standing may be given to a person who has 
completed fourteen acceptable units. The remaining two units are to be 
earned during the first year of attendance at the college.

mission to Southern Missionary College by passing successfully the 
General Educational Development test at high school level. 

Advanced Standing. Students who have attended other institutions 
of collegiate rank may be admitted to advanced standing on presentation

but it is suggested that the same units as for admission to the liberal arts 
curriculum be submitted, to eliminate as far as possible deficiencies for 
admission to the latter curriculum in case of transfer to it. 

Two-Year Elementary Teacher Training. This curriculum com- 
prises the first two years of the curriculum leading to a Bachelor of 
Science in Elementary Education. See above for information as to speci- 
fied units for admission. 

Industrial Arts. For admission to this curriculum no specific pat- 
tern of secondary school units is required; but if the student wishes to 
qualify later for a degree he must fulfil the requirements of the curric- 
ulum leading to the degree sought. 

Two-Year Secretarial. This curriculum comprises the first two 
years of the curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science in Secretarial 
Training. Completion of four years of secondary school is required for 
admission. 

Pre-Professional Curricula. The following pattern, with grad- 
uation from an accredited secondary school and completion of the neces- 
sary college courses, satisfies the requirements for admission to many 
schools of medicine, dentistry, and nursing; but inasmuch as require- 
ments for admission to professional schools differ, a student preparing 
for professional training should acquaint himself with the Secondary 
and collegiate requirements for admission to the particular school he 
desires to enter, and plan both his secondary school and college program 
to meet these requirements. 

Units 

English 3 

Foreign language (both units in one language) 2 

Algebra 1 

Geometry 1 

History (one unit may be civics) 2 

Science (chemistry or physics required) 2 



General Academic Regulations 31 

Bible (one unit for each year of academy attendance) 1-3

Electives 3-1 

Total 16 

Deficiencies. Students who have sufficient total units but lack specific 
required units, may be admitted to college and may make up entrance 
deficiencies, except mathematics, by taking college work in these subjects. 
These hours apply as elective credit toward graduation, except that credit 
in foreign language and Bible applies toward the basic requirements 
in these fields. Arrangements for removing all entrance deficiencies 
should be made at the time of first registration. 

When a college course is taken to remove an entrance deficiency, four 
hours are counted as the equivalent of one secondary school unit. 

Miscellaneous. One unit of credit in a modern foreign language 
is not accepted toward admission, unless the second unit is taken or the 
language continued in college. 

Registration 

Registration for both semesters begins at 9:00 A. M., Monday, Septem- 
ber 16. Care should be taken to secure a proper sequence of courses. 
It is important that students complete their registration during the days 
assigned for that purpose. 

Freshmen and others entering this college for the first time take the 
placement examinations given by the college at the time of registration. 

Experience has demonstrated the fact that any student who enters 
school late places upon himself a serious handicap at the outset. This 
is particularly true in such courses as science, mathematics, and foreign 
language. Therefore, students who come more than two weeks late will 
not be enrolled for full course work, and may be denied admission to 
certain courses because of the difficulty of making up the work. Absences 
incurred by late entrance count toward a student's class standing. 

No grades will be recorded for a student who has not been properly 
registered for a course. 

Semester Hour. A semester hour represents one fifty-minute lecture 
or recitation per week, or the equivalent, through a semester of eighteen 
weeks. 

Student Load. Sixteen semester hours constitute a normal full 
load for a semester. If a student is working to defray expenses, his course 
load will be adjusted accordingly. The mimimum semester load of a 
student living in the dormitory is eight hours. 



32 Southern Missionary College 

On recommendation of his adviser, and approval by the dean of his 
written application, a student of exceptional ability whose previous 
scholastic record has been above average may register for eighteen hours; 
but in no case may more than eighteen hours of residence work, or of res- 
idence and correspondence work, be carried during a semester. 

Course Numbers. Odd numbers represent first semester courses; 
even numbers, second semester courses. Courses numbered below 100 
are lower division courses, taken largely by freshmen and sophomores; 
those numbered 100 or above are upper division courses, open to juniors 
and seniors. In exceptional cases, sophomores may be admitted to certain 
upper division courses, usually for lower division credit. See "Admission 
or Sophomores to Upper Division Courses." 

Courses marked with two numbers separated by a hyphen (e.g., 1-2) 
are year courses, the semesters to be taken in the order given. Credit 
for the first semester only will not apply toward meeting the require- 
ments for a diploma from any curriculum. 

Courses with numbers separated by a colon (e.g. 11:12) are year 
courses of which the second semester may be taken first; but both semes- 
ters must be taken before the credit may apply toward graduation from 
any curriculum. 

Admission of Sophomores to Upper Division Courses. A sopho- 
more may register for one or more upper division courses, for upper divi- 
sion credit, provided (1) he has earned, with an average of "C" or above 
fifty hours including basic freshman and sophomore courses already taken, 
and (2) his current registration completes the fulfillment of lower divi- 
sion basic, major, and minor requirements. 

In exceptional cases, a sophomore may be admitted to certain upper 
division courses, for lower division credit. 

A sophomore desiring admission to an upper division course makes 
application on a blank obtainable from the registrar's office. 

Special Hours. On permission of the committee on scholarship and 
academic standards, a senior may earn an additional hour in an upper 
division course completed or being carried in his major or minor field. 

Auditing Courses. A student may audit a course only by permis- 
sion of the registrar and the instructor concerned, and should register 
as an auditor at the time of other registration. No credit is given for a 
course audited. The tuition charge is one-half that for credit courses. 

Changes In Registration. After registration is completed, any 
change of program is made by means of a program voucher obtained from 
the registrar. This voucher is to be signed by the instructor in each course 
affected, and returned by the student to the registrar's office. The change in

registration is not effective until the voucher has been signed and returned. 

Students may change their program without charge, upon approval of 
the registrar and the teachers concerned, during the first two weeks of each 
semester. A fee of one dollar will be charged for change of program after 
the first two weeks. 

Drop vouchers affecting registration for the current semester are not 
issued after the beginning of semester examinations. 

A course dropped without permission at any time will be recorded as a 
failure. 

Classification of Students 

Students are classified by the registrar. The following schedule 
governs the classification of students; 

Freshman. Completion of a four-year high school course, except 
that a freshman may be admitted conditionally on the completion of 
fourteen acceptable units, the remaining two units to be taken during the 
freshman year. 

Sophomore. Thirty hours with a "C" average, the hours to in- 
clude basic requirements completed, and the average to be computed 
separately on hours earned in Southern Missionary College. 

Junior. Sixty-two hours with a "C" average, the hours to include 
basic requirements completed, and the average computed separately on 
the hours earned in Southern Missionary College. 

For membership in the junior class organization the second semester, 
the junior year's work must have been carried satisfactorily to the time 
of organization, and the remaining hours to be completed for a degree 
shall not be more than can be earned in one summer and the senior year. 

Senior. Ninety-four hours of "C" average (this average separately 
from Southern Missionary College) at the beginning of the first semes- 
ter, with current registration to satisfy all remaining requirements for a 
degree. 

For membership in the senior class organization the second semester, 
the senior year's work must have been carried satisfactorily to the time 
of organization. If a course is taken by correspondence during the senior 
year, the transcript of credit and the report that the validation examination 
has been passed must be on file in the registrar's office before the student 
is eligible for membership in the senior class. 

Adult Special. A person at least twenty-one years of age who is not 
working toward the fulfillment of degree requirements. For further in- 
formation, see "Adult Special" section under "Admission."

Attendance Regulations 

Regular attendance at all classes and chapel is expected of every 
student. 

Absences are classified as justifiable or unjustifiable. Justifiable absences 
are those occasioned by illness or other unavoidable emergency. Unjusti- 
fiable absences are those occasioned by leave of absence from the campus, 
trips to Chattanooga, visits of relatives or friends, etc. In doubtful cases, 
the dean will decide as to the type of absence. 

Course Absences. The work missed for a justifiable reason may 
be made up as the instructor may direct. An announced or scheduled ex- 
amination, if missed for a justifiable reason, may be made up on payment 
of the special examination fee. If a student permits unjustifiable absences 
to accumulate on his record, he shall make them up by doing for each 
absence a double assignment of reading or other individual work as 
specified by the instructor in the course. 

Three tardinesses count as one absence. 

An absence, or each consecutive absence, immediately before or after 
a vacation counts double. 

An absence from classes caused by suspension because of irregularity 
in chapel attendance will be counted. 

To be acceptable, an excuse must be filed in the dean's office within the 
time specified following the posting of the list of absences. 

Excuses for absences because of illness are to be approved by the 
health service, but it is the student's responsibility to turn in the excuse 
to the dean's office. 

On approval of the instructor, a junior or a senior on the dean's list 
will not be held strictly to the attendance requirements of a course so 
long as he maintains his work in each course at a "B" level. 

Chapel Absences. Three unexcused absences from chapel without 
penalty are allowed in a semester^ The fourth unexcused absence neces- 
sitates the payment in cash of a fine of $1.00 which cancels only one 
absence, leaving three unexcused. The next unexcused absence brings 
the student's name to the government committee for consideration. 

Three tardinesses to chapel are counted as one absence. 

To be acceptable, an excuse for absence from chapel is to be filed 
in the registrar's office within one week from the date of the absence. 

Excuses for absences caused by illness are to be approved by the 
health service, but it is the student's responsibility in every instance to 
file his excuse at the registrar's office. 



General Academic Regulations 35 

Extension Work 

Credit for courses taken by correspondence may be accepted under 
any one of the following conditions, provided the student has passed the 
validation examination given by the college: 
lf<'., 

1. If taken by permission of the college and completed within a 
semester of resident attendance in this college. 

If a course is taken by correspondence during the senior year, the 
transcript of credit and a report that the validation examination has been 
passed must be on file in the office of the registrar before the student 
is eligible for membership in the senior class. 

2. If it is the last eight hours for graduation, which may be taken in 
absentia. 

3. If followed by the earning of twelve hours, with a "C" average,

Southern Missionary College will be accepted only if the entire course 
was taken by correspondence (not taken on a review basis). 

In no case may more than eighteen hours of residence work and cor- 
respondence work be carried in a semester. 

Southern Missionary College offers no extramural instruction; there- 
fore all credits from this college must be earned in residence. 

Examinations 

Course Examinations. Examinations are given in all courses at the 
end of each semester. Students are expected to take examinations at the 
time scheduled, unless prevented by illness or equally unavoidable cir- 
cumstance. 

Entrance Examinations. See "Freshman Standing" under "Ad- 
mission." 

Exemption Examination. A student may be exempt by examina- 
tion from a specific course requirement for graduation (such as within the 
basic group, or within or accompanying a major or a minor) provided he 
passes with a grade of at least "C" a comprehensive examination covering 
the particular course. The examination for exemption shall be preparea 
and administered under the direction of the committee on scholarship and 
academic standards. No hours of credit are given for an exemption ex- 
amination. Fee, $2.00.

36 Southern Missionary College 

fied by circumstances, such as sickness or necessary absence from the cam- 
pus. A fee of one dollar is charged for each special examination. In- 
structors may give such examinations only upon evidence of properly 
signed receipts. 

A re-examination is permitted only upon vote of the faculty. 

Validation Examinations. A validation examination, given by 
the college, is required over a course taken by correspondence. A vali- 
dation examination may be required to validate credits earned in resi- 
dence in another institution. The fee for a validation examination is $1.00. 

Grades and Reports 

Reports of scholarship are issued to students and their parents at the 
mid-semester and at the close of the semester. Semester grades are per- 
manently recorded by the college for future reference. 

The following system of grading is used: 

Grade Grade Points 

per Semester Hour 

A — Superior 3 

B — Above average 2 

C — Average 1 

D — Below average 

F — Failure Minus 1 

E — Warning for below passing scholarship; no grade 
higher than "D" in the course for the semester; be- 
»'■■ comes "F" if not removed within a year after date re- 

reported. 
I — Incomplete because of illness or other unavoidable de- 
lay; becomes "F" if not removed within a year after 
date reported. 
W — Withdrew passing 

Wf— Withdrew failing Minus 1 

Au — Audit 

Unless acceptable explanation, such as serious illness, can be given, 
a student whose work is reported unsatisfactory may be asked to with- 
draw from school. 

A grade correctly reported to the registrar can be changed only upon 
repetition of the course. 

When a course is repeated to raise a grade, it must be done before 
a more advanced course in the same field is completed. 

Credit may not be earned in a course after a more advanced course 
in the same field has been taken. 



General Academic Regulations 37 

No grades will be recorded for a course for which the individual con- 
cerned has not registered. 

Dean's List 

This honor list, compiled each semester, is composed of the names 
of those juniors and seniors who carried twelve hours or more during 
the preceding semster and who for that semester earned a grade of "B" in 
each course carried. 

A student on the dean's list may, at the discretion of the instructor, 
oe excused from class attendance so long as his standing in each course is 
"B" or above.

Graduation Standards 49 

Bachelor of Science in Secretarial Science 

Prerequisite: For admission to this curriculum, completion of secon- 
aary school, but no specific pattern of units, is required. It is recommended 
that as far as possible, the same units be presented as are specified for 
admission to the liberal arts curriculum. 

The first two years of this curriculum may constitute a terminal cur- 
riculum leading to a diploma. 

For graduation from either the two-year or the four-year curriculum 
the same minimum residence and grade point average are required as for 
the liberal arts curriculum; and for the four-year curriculum, the minimum 
residence for the major and the minor, the scholarship requirement in 
the major, and the minimum upper division hours required, are the same 
as for a Bachelor of Arts degree. 

Students following the four-year curriculum should take in the second 
year six hours of history, and take secretarial practice in the third year. 

Those preparing to teach in secondary schools should take eighteen 
hours in education. The State of Tennessee requires, besides six hours of 
elective in education, the following courses for certification to teach high 
school secretarial subjects: educational psychology, three hours; principles 
of secondary education, three hours; methods in teaching commercial 
subjects and practice teaching, six hours.

Graduation Standards 51 

JUNIOR COLLEGE CURRICULA 

Terminal and pre-professional curricula are offered on the junior col- 
lege level. Each curriculum, except prenursing, leads to a diploma; but 
since many of the courses in each curriculum are of professional or voca- 
tional nature, a student graduated from one of these curricula usually 
has lower division basic requirements to make up if he transfers to the 
curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree. 

Entrance requirements for each curriculum are given immediately 
preceding the curriculum. 

For graduation, the same requirements as to character, senior residence, 
and grade-point average, as for a Bachelor of Arts degree, apply to each of 
these curricula. 



Agriculture 

Prerequisite: For admission to this curriculum no specific pattern of 
secondary school units is required; but if the student wishes to qualify 
later for a degree he must fulfill the requirements of the curriculum 
leading to the degree sought. 

The first year of this curriculum will be offered in 1946-47.

PRENURSING 

The following pattern, with high school graduation and completion 
of the college prenursing courses, satisfies admission requirements of 
many schools of nursing; but inasmuch as requirements for admission 
to professional schools differ, a student looking forward to nurses' training 
should acquaint herself with the requirements for admission to the par- 
ticular school she desires to enter, and plan both the secondary and the 
college program to meet these requirements. 



* Students who have not had Old and New Testament History in the secondary 
school will take Bible Survey; others will take Fundamentals of Christian Faith. 



Graduation Standards 57 

Admission requirements for many schools of nursing specify the fol- 
lowing sixteen units and graduation from an accredited secondary school 
with a high "C" average. 

Units 
English 3 

Foreign Language (both units must be in the same language) 2 

Mathematics (shall include one unit of algebra, and does 
not include commercial or other applied mathematics) 2 

History 1 

Bible (one unit for each year of attendance at a Seventh- 
day Adventist academy to the extent of three units; one 
unit for high school graduates) 1-3 

Science (one unit must be chemistry or physics) 2 

Sufficient electives to make a total of sixteen units. 



Upon entrance, college prenursing students are given tests in 
arithmetic for nurses and reading comprehension and speed. Remedial 
work in arithmetic and reading will be required of all those who do not 
pass these tests with satisfactory standing. 

The college prenursing work leads to a certificate instead of a diploma. 
It is strongly urged that these courses be taken in two semesters and a 
summer term, or in two years. Students may do some of this work by 
correspondence in order to restrict residence to one year, and it is urged 
that such correspondence credit be earned prior to attendance at Southern 
Missionary College.

Courses of Instruction 

The courses of instruction offered by the college are grouped by de- 
partments, which are arranged alphabetically. The college reserves the 
right to withdraw temporarily any course for which there is not adequate 
enrollment. Starred courses probably will not be given, 1946-47. 

Course Numbers. Courses numbered from 1 to 99 are lower division 
courses, taken mainly by freshmen and sophomores; those numbered 
100 or above are upper division courses, open to juniors and seniors. 

A sophomore may register for one or more upper division courses, for 
upper division credit, provided (1) he has earned, with an average of 
"C" or above, fifty hours including basic freshman and sophomore courses 
already taken, and (2) his current registration completes the fulfilment 
of lower division basic, major, and minor requirements. In exceptional 
cases, a sophomore who does not fulfill the above requirements may be 
admitted to an upper division course, for lower division credit. 

A sophomore who desires admission to an upper division course 
makes application on a blank obtainable in the registrar's office. 

Course numbers separated by a hyphen (e.g.1-2) represent year 
courses, the semesters to be taken in order given. Credit for the first 
semester only will not apply toward graduation from any curriculum. 

Course numbers separated by a colon (e.g.ll:12) are year courses, of 
which either semester may be taken first, but both semesters must be 
taken before the credit may apply toward graduation from any curriculum. 

Agriculture 

Mr. Tucker 

It is the purpose of the college to develop a strong department of 
agriculture. Since but little has been done in this line in the past, the 
work must of necessity be developed slowly and built on a good founda- 
tion. 

The general objectives in this department are: (1) to awaken in the 
entire school group a love of nature and the great out-of-doors; (2) to 
awaken in the individual student an appreciation of the dignity and the 
worth- whileness of labor during his student life; (3) to arouse in the 
students of agriculture a love for farm life; (4) to aid as many as seem 
interested and vocationally inclined, to enter agricultural pursuits as a 
life occupation. 

Minor. A minor in agriculture requires fifteen hours, including six 
hours of upper division credit, three of which shall be earned in this 
college.

Collegedale Academy 

The Preparatory School of Southern Missionary College 



1946-1947 



ACCREDITED BY 

Seventh-day Adventist Board of Regents 

Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools 

Tennessee State Department of Education. 



Collegedale Academy 

Admission Requirements 

The academy is open to young men and young women above the 
eighth grade, of good moral character and of reasonably sound health, 
who are willing to live in harmony with its principles and regulations and 
who come for the purpose of doing faithful work. While no religious 
test is applied, all are required to show proper respect for spiritual things, 
for the Scriptures, for divine worship, and all are expected to attend 
church services. 

It is distinctly understood that every student who applies for admission 
to the academy thereby pledges himself to observe all its regulations. If 
this pledge is broken, it follows that by such infraction he forfeits his 
membership in the school, and is retained only on the forbearance of the 
faculty. It is also a part of the student's contract that he, to the best of his 
ability, will perform all the industrial duties assigned him. See the college 
section and the Students' Handbook for further information concerning 
conduct regulations. 

All students entering school are required to take the special placement 
examinations which are given at the time of registration. 

A person planning to enter Collegedale Academy for the first time 
should have sent to the principal of the academy a certified copy of his 
eighth grade certificate or a statement from the principal that the eighth 
grade has been completed satisfactorily, and a transcript of all academy 
or high school credits earned. These should reach the academy in time to 
be evaluated before the opening day of school, and failure to have them 
sent in early may result in delayed registration and unsatisfactory classi- 
fication. Blanks for this purpose will be sent upon request. If the appli- 
cant is admitted, all admission credentials become the property of the 
school and are not returned to him. 

Registration 

Registration begins Monday, September 16, 1946, at 9:00 A. M. It is 
highly desirable that all students enter at the beginning of the school 
year. Students who come more than two weeks late will not be enrolled 
for full class work, and they may be denied entrance to certain courses 
because of the difficulty of making up work. 



General Academic Regulations 

Class Load 

Four units and physical education constitute full work for a school 
year of thirty-six weeks. Requests for more than full work may be made 
to the principal; but not more than five units will be allowed, nor will 
permission to carry more than full work be granted to any student whose 
scholarship during the preceding year has not been above average. Stu- 
dents who are registered for a normal load may be asked to reduce their 
load if their scholarship is not satisfactory. 

Students who earn part of their expenses while in school should not 
plan to take full class work; their class load is reduced in proportion to 
the amount of industrial work assigned. 

Changes in Class Schedule 

A student may change his program without charge, upon approval of 
the principal and the teachers concerned, during the first two weeks of each 
semester. A fee of one dollar will be charged for change of program 
after the first two weeks. 

No student may enter or drop any class without presenting to the in- 
structor of that class a permit from the principal. This permit must be 
countersigned by the instructor and returned by the student to the princi- 
pal's office. No student will be considered dropped from a class, and tuition 
will continue, until such a permit has been properly signed and returned. 

A course dropped without permission at any time will be recorded as 
a failure. 

No grades will be recorded for a student who has not been properly 
registered for a course. 

Absences and Excuses 

Regular attendance at all classes and chapel is expected of every 
student. 

Three tardinesses are counted as one absence, and absence from lab- 
oratory is considered as a class absence. An absence incurred the last time 
a class meets before a vacation, or the first time after a vacation, will 
carry a double penalty. 

Chapel services are held three times each week. Three unexcused 
absences from chapel are allowed in one semester. For the fourth unex- 
cused absence from chapel the student will pay a penalty fine of one dollar 



General Academic Regulations 101 

in cash before he is permitted to continue his class work. This payment 
cancels the fourth absence only. For the fifth unexcused absence the stu- 
dent's name is referred to the government committee. Any absence from 
classes caused by suspension due to irregularity in chapel attendance will 
be counted. 

Grade Reports 

Reports of scholarship are made in duplicate to parents and students 
at the close of each school period of six weeks. All semester grades are 
permanently recorded by the school for future reference. 

The following system of marking is used: A, superior; B, above aver- 
age; C, average; D, below average; I, incomplete; E, condition; F, failure; 
W, work passing at time of withdrawal; Wf, failing at time of with- 
drawal. 

Unless acceptable explanation, such as serious illness, can be given, 
a student whose work is reported unsatisfactory may be asked to withdraw 
from school. 

Grade Points 

Grade points are computed according to the following scale: 

Grades Grade points per unit 

A 3 

B 2 

C l 

D 

F Minus 1 

W 

Wf Minus 1 

Credit Evaluation 

A "unit" is defined as the amount of credit granted for one high 
school subject satisfactorily pursued during a year of thirty-six weeks, 
with forty-five minute recitation periods, five days a week, or the equiva- 
lent. 

"Incompletes" and Examinations 

A student who redeems an "incomplete" will receive the grade earned. 
A student who redeems a "condition" will receive a grade of "D." 

An incomplete or condition becomes a failure if not removed within 
one year. 

Special examinations are given when justified by circumstances, such 
as sickness or necessary absence from the campus. 

A re-examination is permitted only upon vote of the faculty. 



102 COLLEGEDALE ACADEMY 

Physical Education 

Each year a course in physical education is required of all students, 
except those excused by the school nurse. 

Juniors 

To be eligible for membership in the junior class, a person must have, 
upon completion of his current registration, at least eleven units 
exclusive of credit in physical education,' with no more units to be earned 
for graduation than can be completed in one year. 

Requirements for Graduation 

1. The minimum requirement for graduation from Collegedale Acad- 
emy is sixteen units exclusive of credit in physical education; some of the 
units are prescribed, others are elective. 

2. The year preceding a student's graduation must be spent in College- 
dale Academy. At least three units of the senior year's credits must be 
earned in this academy. 

3. No credit toward graduation is given for one year of language, 
unless two years of another language are completed. 

4. Transcripts of all courses completed in other schools must be on 
file before a student's work can be checked for graduation. 

5. AH resident candidates for graduation must be members of the 
senior class. 

6. Since the institution has but one graduation exercise a year, at 
the end of the winter session, candidates completing their requirements 
in the summer will be graduated the following spring.

Each student entering Collegedale Academy defrays only a part of the 
actual cost of his instruction and maintenance. The total cost is not en- 
tirely met by the amount of cash paid or labor performed in accordance 
with the requirements set forth in this section. The operating deficit of 
the academy is covered by gifts, subsidies, and funds from other sources. 
The educational opportunity afforded each student in Collegedale Academy 
represents a large investment in buildings and equipment averaging more 
than two thousand dollars for each student enrolled. 

Dormitory Room Deposit 

Dormitory rooms may be reserved by mailing a $10 room deposit to 
the college between May 1 and Sept. 1. This deposit will appear 
as a credit on the first statement of the semester. It cannot be ap- 
plied as part payment of the advance deposit or general fees. 

In case the student's application is not accepted or if notification of 
non-attendance is given the college by Sept. 1, the room deposit will be 
refunded at once by check. 

Advance Deposit and General Fees 

Advance Deposit — Dormitory Students $50.00 

Matriculation Fee 5.00 

Library Fee 3.50 

Lyceum Fee 1.50 

Publications Fee, The Southern Accent 1.00 

Total $61.00 

The above deposit and fees are payable on or before the date of regi- 
stration. The advance deposit will be credited on the final statement of 
the school year or at the time of withdrawal. The matriculation fee is not 
refundable. The library and lyceum fees will be credited only if the stu- 
dent withdraws within the first two weeks of the semester. 

The advance deposit and publications fees are charged only once 
during the year; the other fees are charged each semester. 

Resident students are charged the same general fees as outlined above, 
but the advance deposit is only $20.00. 

Book Rental Plan 

Academy students may obtain their textbooks at the college store on 
a rental basis. The charge will be ninety cents per book. This does not 
include workbooks which must be purchased for cash. It is expected that 
all textbooks will be returned in good condition to the college at the close 
of the school year; otherwise, a book damage charge will be made.

112 COLLEGEDALE ACADEMY 

Tuition Charges 

The charges for tuition for the regular school year of nine periods are 
as follows: 

Each Period School Year 
(9 periods) 

5 Units or Subjects - $21.00 $189.00 

*4 Units or Subjects 18.00 162.00 

3 Units or Subjects _ — 15.00 135.00 

2 Units or Subjects - 12.00 108.00 

It is assumed that all young people come to Collegedale Academy for 
the express purpose of obtaining an education, and since those working 
their entire way have time for one-half of a full class load, each student 
is urged to carry at least half school work. As an encouragement to do 
this, a minimum charge for tuition will be made on that basis. 

Private work is discouraged, and no credit will be given for such work 
unless satisfactory arrangements have been made in advance with the 
principal. The charge for private work is the same as regular tutition, 
plus tutoring fee. 

Tuition refunds will be made only when a drop voucher has been 
secured at the principal's office. The tuition charge will stop at the end 
of the week in which the drop voucher is obtained. 

Students entering late will be charged tuition from the beginning of 
the semester, unless they have been attending school elsewhere to the time 
of their enrollment here and no make-up work is necessary. 

Other Charges and Credits 

For information regarding other charges and credits appearing on the 
period statement, reference is made to the college expense section. The 
information given there, commencing with the paragraph entitled "Period 
Music Charges," pertains to both college and academy students. 

* Four units are considered full school work. 



The Elementary School 

Expenses 

At the time of admission an entrance deposit of $10.00 is required of 
each student. This deposit is held as a guarantee that the statement for
