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
health certificate, filled in by a physician on a blank provided by the
college
The room reservation fee of $10.00 should accompany the application
for admission. It will be credited to the first month's statement; ofc
will be refunded if the applicant is not admitted, or if he decides not
to enter and notifies the college not later than September 1, 1946.
Official credentials, which in every case include a complete record of
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
of the college and are kept on permanent file.
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.
Veterans who have not graduated from high school may qualify for ad-
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
of a transcript of credits, including those from secondary school, and a
certificate of honorable dismissal. Advanced standing credit is regarded
as provisional at the time of the applicant's admission, and will not be
recorded and re-issued on transcript until after the applicant has attended
General Academic Regulations 29
this college for one semester or the equivalent, and has earned during that
time not less than twelve hours with a scholarship average of "C".
A maximum of seventy-two hours may be accepted from a junior
college.
Admission as a Special Student. A person over twenty-one years
of age who has not completed secondary school may be admitted as a
special student (not a candidate for a degree or a diploma), provided
he secures the approval of the registrar and of the instructor whose course
he wishes to take.
Admission Requirements for the Several Curricula
Liberal Arts. For admission to the curriculum leading to a Bachelor
of Arts degree the following units are required:
English 3
Foreign language (both units in same language) 2
Mathematics (algebra and plane geometry recommended;
commercial or other applied mathematics does not sat-
isfy this requirement) 2
Science (laboratory science, such as biology, physics, or
chemistry) 1
Bible (one unit for each year of attendance in an academy,
to a total of 3) 1-3
History (one unit of history, or one-half unit of American
history and one-half unit of civics) 1
Vocational 1
Elective Sufficient to make a total of 16 units.
Theological Curriculum. The same pattern of entrance units as
for the Liberal Arts curriculum is required for this curriculum leading
to the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Theology. See list above.
Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. For informa-
tion as to units required for admission to this curriculum, see list given
under "Liberal Arts".
. Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education. A person who
has finished secondary school is admitted without deficiencies to this
curriculum if he has the following units:
English 3
Bible (one unit for each year of attendance in an academy, to
the total of 3) 1-3
Mathematics „ 1
Science 1
Social Studies 2
Vocational 1
Elective Sufficient to make a total of 16 units
30 Southern Missionary College
Bachelor of Science in Secretarial Science. For admission to
this curriculum, completion of secondary 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 libera} arts cur-
riculum.
Agriculture. 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 lead-
ing to the degree sought.
Bible Instructors'. No specific subjects are required for admission,
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
Vocational 1
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

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.

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

ter, with current registration to satisfy all remaining requirements for a
degree.

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

Grade Grade Points
per Semester Hour
A — Superior 3
B — Above average 2
C — Average 1
D — Below average

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

a student whose work is reported unsatisfactory may be asked to with-
draw from school.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
