AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE

The purpose which has prevailed at Agnes Scott since its
foundation has been to offer the very best educational ad-
vantages under positive Christian influences — the training and
furnishing of the mind in a modern, well-equipped college, and
at the same time the formation and development of Christian
character and ideals. Along with these ends, it is constantly
sought to cultivate true womanliness, a womanliness which com-
bines strength with gentleness and refinement. It is thus the
aim of the College to send out educated Christian women to be
a power in blessing the world and glorifying God.

The College was founded by Presbyterians, and hence its
moral standards and religious life conform as nearly as possible
to those which obtain in that church. Special care, however,
is taken not to interfere in any way with the religious views or
church preferences of students.

The college offers only the B.A. degree. There are, how-
ever, optional courses leading to this degree, thus giving the
opportunity for each student to elect a course most in accord
with her special talent and plans.

16 - Agnes Scott College

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

For several years the College has not been able to accom-
modate all of those seeking admission. There are four main
considerations for the acceptance of a student: (1) the ex-
cellence of her preparation, as evidenced by a certificate or an
examination; (2) her character and ability, shown by testi-
monials, and a psychological test; (3) a satisfactory health
report; (4) the date of her application for admission.

Since full data cannot be secured until the closing of the
various preparatory schools, as a rule it is not possible to give
definite acceptance of an applicant before June 15 th. Selections
are usually made between this date and July 1st. The names
of applicants who cannot be accepted at the first period of
choosing are placed on a waiting list for spaces that may develop
later. In addition to the general list, the College maintains an
"honor group" for exceptionally well prepared applicants, and
these may often secure places even to the opening of the college
year.

Only graduates of four-year preparatory schools of recog-
nized standing, or applicants who can offer equivalent prepara-
tion, representing four years of work in a recognized institu-
tion, will be received into the College.^ For the admission of
special students, see page 22.

Applicants for admission must not be under sixteen years of
age. Candidates for advanced standing should be of an age
corresponding to this rule.

A deposit of $25.00 is required of all students before room
space is reserved. This should be sent to the Registrar, either
in New York exchange or Postal Money Order, made payable
to Agnes Scott College. If by local check, the usual clearing
house collection charges should be added.

Admission of Students 17

The above deposit is credited on the September payment. If
for any reason the student finds it impracticable to attend
Agnes Scott and asks for the return of her fee, the request will
be granted provided it reaches the College on or before June
30th, prior to the opening of college. After that date it will
not be returned unless the preparation of the applicant is in-
sufficient or unless the College finds it impossible to take her
on account of lack of space.

For entrance requirements, and for description of entrance
subjects, see below.

For admission by certificate, see page 24.
For entrance examinations, see page 24.

fSee page 42.

18 Agnes Scott College

A unit represents a year's study of one of the above sub-
jects in a standard secondary school, constituting approximately
a quarter of a full year's work.

It is understood that in choosing the elective vinits no re-
quired unit may be counted also as an elective unit, and also
that elective units may be counted only once.

The entrance requirement work in French, German and
Spanish may be done in College after entrance, but will not
count toward the degree.

Not more than three units may be offered in History and
Civics combined.

The maximum number of units allowed in Science is three.

STANDING TO WHICH STUDENTS ARE ADMITTED

The College admits students: (1) as unconditioned Fresh-
men; (II) as conditioned Freshmen; (III) as irregular students;
(IV) to advanced standing; (V) as special students.

While these five classifications are recognized, the College gives
preference to those in the first group; and under the competitive
plan of admission very few in other groups are taken.

I. As Unconditioned Freshmen, upon the presentation of
sixteen complete units, including the prescribed units detailed

11. As Conditioned Freshmen, upon the presentation of six-
teen complete units chosen from the list of accepted subjects
on page 17; but lacking a maximum of two units of those
prescribed for unconditioned admission. These conditions in
prescribed subjects must be removed before the beginning of
the second year.

The following restrictions upon such conditions must be
observed:

1. The deficiency in no single subject (except in the case
of a modern language or Greek) shall amount to more than a
year of preparatory work.

2. Completed work to the following extent must be offered:

(a) English to the extent of four units.

(b) Mathematics to the extent of two units.

(d) Latin to the extent of three units, if the major require-
ment be chosen.

in. As Irregular Students, without class standing, upon the
presentation of sixteen complete units chosen from the list of
accepted subjects detailed on page 17, including four units in
English and two in Mathematics.

These students are required to take a minimum of fourteen
hours of recitation a week, which may include Music and Art,
but at least nine hours mvist be in academic work.

Should they later desire to arrange their courses for the de-
gree, credit will be given them for work already done in the
College, but they must meet all of the entrance requirements of
degree students.

Admission of Students 21

IV. To Advanced Standing. A candidate may be admitted
to any of the higher classes on the following conditions:

1. She must present:

a. An honorable dismissal from the college she has attended.

b. An oflficial statement of entrance requirements and how
absolved.

c. An ofiFicial statement of studies pursued for credit.

d. A catalogue of the institution with her completed courses
marked.

e. An application for advanced credit properly filled out
upon a blank provided by Agnes Scott College for this pur-
pose.

Note. — If the above certificates are not entirely satisfactory
a detailed statement of individual professors will be required.

2. She must satisfy the entrance requirements of this Col-
lege. If necessary, credits presented for advanced standing may
be used to satisfy any deficit in the entrance requirements.

3. If she comes from a college which has been recognized
by the Agnes Scott faculty as having equivalent Acquirements
and standards for the B.A. degree, she will be given either con-
tinuation work or tentative credit course by course, in so far as
the courses are, in the opinion of the heads of the departments
concerned, equivalent to courses offered in this College. An
examination on the work offered for advanced standing may be
required at any time, if the student's work should prove un-
satisfactory.

22 Agnes Scott College

4. If she comes from an institution not fully recognized, she
will be required to take examinations for any advanced credit
she may desire.

5. No credit will be allowed for courses taken by cor-
respondence except by advanced standing examinations given by
this college.

6. The B.A. degree will not be conferred on any student
who has not completed at least thirty semester hours of work
in residence during the session immediately preceding gradu-
ation.

7. Applicants for advanced standing must have received a
merit grade on at least one-half of the hoiu-s presented for
advanced credit.

Note. — See pages 45-46 for additional details as to advanced
credits.

V. As Special Students. In accordance with the regulation
prescribed by "The Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools
of the Southern States," candidates of maturity, who are unable,
for any cause, to present the entrance requirements, may be ad-
mitted to such courses as they may be prepared to take, pro-
vided these courses are not among those covered by the entrance
requirements. This provision is intended to a£Ford an oppor-
tunity to two classes of women: (1) Those who have completed
their entrance requirements so long since as to render them void;
(2) Those whose preparatory work has been interrupted in the
past and never resumed. The following limitations should be
observed.

1. Applicants must not be less than twenty years of age at
the time of application.

Admission of Students 23

2. They may not matriculate in any courses covered by the
entrance requirements without first satisfying the requirements
in those subjects.

3. They have no class standing. If they desire later to
transfer to the regular degree course, they must first satisfy the
full entrance requirements.

4. If they have completed the entrance requirements in
accredited schools not more than two years previously, they will
be expected to submit the certificates of such schools, and enter
as "regular," or as "irregular" students, and not as "special"
students.

24 Agnes Scott College

MANNER OF ADMISSION

Admission by Certificate. In lieu of entrance examinations,
the College will accept certificates from any high school, fitting
school, or seminary on the accredited list of the Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States, or from
any school accredited by other college associations of equal stand-
ing, in so far as such certificates show the entrance reqmrements
to have been duly satisfied not more than two years prior to
the candidate's application for admission. Certificates should
be on forms provided by the College. These forms will be
furnished on application. The certificate privilege is granted
to schools only and not to private instructors.

Beginning with September, 1924, students applying for ad-
mission on the certificate plan have been given a psychological
test as an additional aid toward judging their qualifications. The
tests may be given at any place where sviitable arrangements for
holding them can be made.

Adtnission by Examination. Candidates who are unable to
present satisfactory certificates may be admitted by examina-
tion, provided they have taken the required units under capable
instruction.

Examinations for admission are usually given in the spring.
They may be taken at the College or by special arrangement
at local schools. Applications for the giving of examinations
away from the College should be filed with the Registrar by
May 1st of each year.

Spaces in dormitories will not be held for students whose
entrance depends on fall examinations.

Admission of Students 25

Any candidate applying for entrance examinations at dates
other than those appointed may be allowed to take them on the
approval of the Registrar, but a fee of $2.00 will be charged
for each examination.

For the year 1928, the dates for the spring examinations are
May 21-26. The fall examinations are held only at the College,
and the schedule is as follows:

Thursday, September 13

Botany 10:00 A.M. to 11:00 A.M.

DESCRIPTION OF ENTRANCE SUBJECTS

ENGLISH

English, foi^r units. The College entrance requirements of
the New England, Middle and Southern Associations of Colleges
and Secondary Schools constitute the entrance work in English.

The requirement has two branches, Rhetoric and English
Literature. The study of English should be continuous through-
out the four years of the high-school course.

I. Rhetoric and Composition, two units. It is hoped that
at least one-half of the high-school course in English will be
devoted to the work in composition and rhetoric, either as a
separate study or in connection with the work in literature, as
it is a prime essential to success in any branch of college work
that the student be able to express herself, both orally and in
writing, with correctness and clearness.

To meet this requirement in composition:

1. There should be practice in writing, the equivalent of at
least one theme a week during the four years of her preparatory
course. She must be able to spell, capitalize, and punctuate
correctly; no candidate will be accepted whose work is notably
deficient in this respect. She must also have a practical knowl-
edge of English grammar.

2. There should be a systematic study of rhetoric. Particu-
lar attention should be given to the structure of the sentence,
paragraph, and whole composition.

The following books are recommended for study in prepara-
tion: Herrick and Damon's Composition and Rhetoric; Scott

Description of Entrance Subjects 27

and Denney's Composition-Rhetoric; Manly and Rickert's The
"Writing of Enghsh; Brooks and Hubbard's Rhetoric; Webster's
Enghsh Composition and Literature; Shackford and Judson's
Composition-Rhetoric -Literature.

IL Literature, two units.

L Reading (1928.) — At least two selections must be made
from each of the following groups:

From each group two selections are to be made, except that for
any book in Group V a book from any other may be substituted.

Group I: Dickens, A Tale of Txvo Cities; George Eliot, Silas
Marner; Scott, Quentin Durward; Stevenson, Treasure Island or
Kidnapped; Hawthorne, The House of the Seven Gables.

Group II: Shakespeare, Merchant of Venice, Julius Ccesar,
King Henry V, As You Like It.

Group III: Scott, The Lady of the Lake; Coleridge, The
Ancient Mariner and Arnold, Sohrah and Rustum; a collection of
representative verse, narrative and lyric; Tennyson, Idylls of the
King (any four) ; the Aeneid or the Odyssey in a translation of
recognized excellence.

Group IV: The Old Testament (the chief narrative episodes
in Genesis, Exodus, Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings and Daniel,
together with the books of Ruth and Esther) ; Irving, The Sketch
Book (about 175 pages) ; Addison and Steele, The Sir Roger de
Coverley Papers; Macaulay, Lord Clive; Parkman, The Oregon
Trail; Franklin, Autobiography.

Group V: A modern novel; a collection of short stories
(about 150 pages); a collection of contemporary verse (about
150 pages) ; a collection of prose writings on matters of current
interest (about 150 pages); two modern plays.

28 Agnes Scott College

All selections from this group should be works of recognized
excellence.

2. Shidy and Practice (1928.) — ^This part of the preparation
presupposes the thorough study of the works named below. The
examinations will be upon subject-matter, form, and structure.
This requirement means that the student should have been trained
to use simple forms of narration, description, exposition, and
argument, in her own composition. In addition, the candi-
date may be required to answer questions involving the es-
sentials of English grammar, and questions on the leading facts
in those periods of English literary history to which the pre-
scribed works belong. The books provided for study are ar-
ranged in four groups, from each of which one selection is to
be made:

Group I: Drama. Shakespeare: Macbeth, Hamlet.

Group II: Poetry. Milton: L' Allegro, II Penseroso, and either
Comus or Lycidas. Tennyson: The Coming of Arthur, The Holy
Grail, and the Passing of Arthur. The selections from Words-
worth, Keats, and Shelley in Book IV of Palgrave's Golden Treas-
ury (First Series).

Group III: Oratory. Burke: Speech on Conciliation with
America. Macaulay's Two Speeches on Copyright and Lincoln's
Speech at Cooper Union. Washington's Farewell Address and
Webster's First Bunker Hill Oration.

Group IV: Essays. Carlyle: Essay on Burns, with a selections
from Burns' poems. Macaulay: Life of Johnson. Emerson:
Essay on Manners.

As additional evidence of preparation the candidate may pre-
sent an exercise book, properly certified by her instructor, con-
taining compositions or other written work.

Description of Entrance Subjects 29

It is taken for granted that the candidate will have com-
mitted to memory passages from some of the poems she has read.

LATIN

All students entering the degree course must present the minor
requirement in Latin and are advised to offer the major reqtiire-
ment.

Minor Requirement, three units. Admits to Latin 11-12
and 13-14.

a. Latin Grammar, one unit. — A thorough knowledge of all
regular inflections, and the common irregular forms; the simpler
rules for composition and derivation of words; syntax of nouns
and verbs; structure of sentences, with special emphasis upon
relative and conditional clauses, indirect discourse, and the
uses of the siibjunctive.

b. CcEsar or the eqmvalent, one unit. — The amount of pre-
pared reading should be not less in amount than Caesar, Gallic
War, Books I-IV. The early reading of the year may be "made"
or adapted Latin, e. g. the Argonauts or selections from other
Roman historians than Csesar and Nepos (Lives) , but at least
one semester must be spent on selections from Caesar (Gallic War
and Civil War) . The examinations of College Entrance Board
and of Agnes Scott will be based on Caesar and Nepos and will
include grammatical questions, sight translation, and some simple
composition based on the vocabulary and constructions found in
Cajsar.

c. Cicero or the equivalent, one unit. — The amount of pre-
pared reading should be not loss than seven orations of Cicero
(counting the Manilian Law as two) . This reading may be

30 Agnes Scott College

selected from Cicero (orations and letters) and Sallust (Catiline
and Jugur thine War), but it must include Cicero, the j&rst
oration against Catiline, the oration for Archias, and either the
Manilian Law or the impeachment of Verres, Actio Secunda, IV,
ch. 52-60 (The Plunder of Syracuse). Latin composition must
be included in the course. Examination on this unit will be
based on the orations required and will include sight translation,
composition based on the vocabulary and constructions found in
Cicero's orations, and questions on syntax, subject matter, and
historical allusions.

Latin Composition. — Those who receive credit for b and c
must be able to translate into correct Latin detached sentences
involving all regular inflections and all common irregular forms,
and illustrating the principal grammatical constructions found in
the prose authors read. To secure such ability, the preparation
must include a systematic study of the main principles of Latin
syntax, and one period a week throughout each year should be
devoted to prose.

Translation at Sight. — Candidates must be able to translate at
sight passages of Latin suited in vocabulary, construction and
range of ideas to the preparation secured by the reading indi-
cated above.

Major Require:ment, four units. — a, b, and c, of minor
requirement, and d, (as outlined below). Admits to Latin 101.

d. 1. Virgil, or the equivalent, one unit. — The amount of
prepared reading should not be less in amount than Virgil,
^neid, Books I-VL The reading may be selected from Virgil

Fasti, and Tristia) , but it must include ^neid, III and VI. It
is recommended that ^neid, I, II and IV be included. The

Description of Entrance Subjects 31

examination will be based on iEneid III and VI, and either
yEneid II and IV or Ovid, Metamorphoses, Book I, 313-415 (Deu-
calion and Pyrrha); II, 1-328 (Phaethon) ; VII, 1-158 (The
Golden Fleece); VIII, 616-724 (Philemon and Baucis); X, 560-
680 (Atalanta's Race). If a candidate has read five books of
^neid and a part of the selections from Ovid equivalent in
amount to one book of the JEneid, she may, after answering the
questions on III and VI and translating the sight passages, select
from the examination the questions in the parts of iEneid II
and IV and of Ovid which she has studied. The examination
will include sight translation and questions on subject matter,
literary and historical allusions and prosody.

2. Latin Prose Composition. — The writing of continuous
prose of moderate difficulty based on Caesar and Cicero. The
work of this year should include a thorough review of the
principles taught in the previous years.

Note. — Each student, entering with four units of Latin, who
does not wish to continue Latin in College, is required to pass
an examination on the fourth entrance unit {d \ and 2), unless
she enters from a school belonging to the Southern Association
or a school of equal rank, students from which have entered
Agnes Scott and maintained an approved standard in Latin within
the last five years, and unless she furnishes a satisfactory recom-
mendation from her Latin teacher to the effect that she is pre-
pared for college work. The student desiring exemption from
Latin without taking the entrance examination in Virgil and
Latin Prose is expected to learn from the college office before the
opening of the session whether she is exempt or not.

If the student entering with four units does not continue Latin
in college, she must elect one of the other subjects included in
group 2 of the "courses required with option" (see page 5 1).

32 Agnes Scott College

Suggestions Concerning Preparation.

Exercises in translation at sight should begin with the first
lessons in which Latin sentences of any length occur, and should
continue throughout the High School course with sufficient
frequency to insure correct methods of work on the part of the
student. From the outset particular attention should be given
to developing the ability to take in the meaning of each word —
and so, gradually, of the whole sentence — ^just as it stands; the
sentence should be read and understood in the order of the
original, with full appreciation of the force of each word as it
comes, so far as this can be known or inferred from that which
has preceded, and from the form and the position of the word
itself. The habit of reading in this way should be encouraged
and cultivated as the best preparation for all the translating
that the student has to do. No translation, however, should
be a mechanical metaphrase. Nor should it be a mere loose para-
phrase. The full meaning of the passage to be translated,
gathered in the way described above, should finally be expressed
in clear and natural English.

A written examination cannot test the ear or tongue, but
proper instruction in any language will necessarily include the
training of both. The school work in Latin, therefore, should
include much reading aloud, writing from dictation, and trans-
lation from the teacher's reading. Learning suitable passages by
heart is also very useful, and should be more practiced.

The work in composition should give the student a better
understanding of the Latin she is reading at the time, if it is
prose, and greater facility in reading. It is desirable, however,
that there should be systematic and regular work in composi-
tion during the time in which poetry is read as well; for this
work the prose authors already studied should be used as models.

Description of Entrance Subjects 33

GREEK

Students may offer for entrance in Greek either the minor or
the major requirement. The minor requirement is counted as
two units, and presupposes a study of Greek during two full
years, five recitations a week. The major requirement is counted
as three units, and presupposes three years of preparation, five
recitations a week. The ground which must be covered is
as follows:

1. For the minor requirement —

a. Grammar: Inflection, etymology, and derivation of words,
syntax of nouns and verbs, and structure of the sentence as
treated in Allen's First Year of Greek, or its equivalent, must be
thoroughly mastered. Constant attention should be paid to
translation from English into Greek.

b. Xenophon: Anabasis, three books. Special attention
should be paid to Greek syntax and to the use of good English
in translating. Thorough drill on translation from English into
Greek.

2. For the major requirement —

The student must have completed the minor requirement as
outlined above and in addition have read three books of Homer's
Iliad, or an equivalent amount in Homer's Odyssey. Constant
practice should be given in prose composition, in translation at
sight, and in Homeric forms and syntax.

34 Agnes Scott College

including the essentials of syntax with mastery of the regular
verbs and of at least twenty-five irregular models.

2. Abundant exercises in prose composition.

3. Careful drill in pronunciation and practice in conver-
sation.

It is urged that students be taught the use of the alphabet of
the Association Phonetique.

It is essential that the candidate acquire the ability to follow
a recitation conducted in French and to answer in that lan-
quage questions asked by the instructor. She should also be
able to write in French a paragraph dictated from any book of
moderate difficulty.

Note. — If the third unit of the major requirement is oflFered
in addition to the full entrance requirement in other subjects, it
may be counted toward the degree. It is understood, however,
that this third unit includes five recitations a week for one
year. Students presenting the major requirement will be expected
to take an examination in conversation at least, since it is essen-
tial that students of this grade be able to follow and to take
part with comparative ease in recitations conducted in German.

is counted as one unit. Each unit represents the amount of work
which can be covered in five recitations a week during one year,
or in three recitations a week during two years.

a. Greek History to the Death of Alexander, and Roman
History to 800 A. D., or Ancient and Mediaeval History.

It is strongly urged that every student offer Greek and Roman
History for entrance.

b. Mediaeval and Modern European History from 800 A. D.
to the present time, or Modern European History.

c. English History.

d. American History.

Of these four units, the student must oflfer one unit, and may
offer two additional units.

The examinations will be based upon modern high school text-
books.

It is strongly recommended that the preparation in History
include, besides the study of a text-book, parallel reading, use
of a notebook, taking of notes, and practice in the filling in of
outline maps.

One tinit of credit may be received for a course in Civics taken
throughout the year, or one-half unit may be received for a
course taken in combination with American History. One-half
unit of credit may be allowed for a semester course in Civics

Description of Entrance Subjects 41

and one-half unit for a course in Economics, provided these are
taken in the last year of the high school. No credit will be
allowed for Economics alone. The total entrance credit of His-
tory and Civics may not exceed three units.

SCIENCE

The student may offer one, two or three units from those
given below. Each should represent the work of one year, and
should include a large amount of individual laboratory work.
The laboratory v/ork should be directed by a competent instruc-
tor and records made in a notebook, while in the field or lab-
oratory. A list of advised experiments will be sent with blank
for admission. Experiments must be checked and certified to by
the instructor. In doubtful cases the notebook will be called for.

1. Physics, one unit. The amount of work is represented by
the requirements outlined by the College Entrance Examination
Board, or such texts as Millikan & Gale. The laboratory work
must include at least thirty exercises from the different phases of
the subject and comprising a certain number of quantitative
experiments. The division of time should be three recitations a
week of one period each, and two double periods for laboratory.

2. Chemistry, one unit. The preparation in Chemistry
should consist of recitations, instruction by lecture table demon-
strations and laboratory work equivalent to five hours each
week throughout the year. It is suggested that two double
periods a week be given to individual laboratory work.

3. Biology, Botany, Zoology, one unit. A year in any of
these subjects will be accepted for entrance, provided the work
in the courses meets the requirements of the College Entrance

42 Agnes Scott College

Examination Board. Preparation in these subjects should re-
quire three recitations per week, and two laboratory exercises of
two periods each.

4. Geography, one unit. The work in this subject should
meet the requirements outlined by the College Entrance Exami-
nation Board in the course in Physical Geography. A strong
course in Commercial Geography may be substituted for this, but
both courses may not be offered.

5. General Science, one unit. Credit is given for one
year's high school work in General Science when such work com-
prises both text-book and laboratory work. A laboratory note-
book with original observations and conclusions should be pre-
sented in order to receive credit.

MUSIC

One unit in the elective group may be offered in Music by
examination only. This examination covers theory and instru-
mental proficiency. The preparation for it may not be done
in College for College admission. For details of the require-
ments, see page 101. The examination may be taken only at
the College. Students are not advised to try for this unit unless
they have had unusual musical training.

BIBLE

In order to encourage the study of the Bible in preparatory
schools, the College will accept, in the elective group, one unit
under the following conditions:

(1) The applicant must come from a school giving a
thorough course in either the Old Testament or the New Tes-

Description of Entrance Subjects 43

tament, covering a fxill academic year and occupying approxi-
mately one-fourth of the student's time for the year.

(2) The outHne of the course, methods of instruction, and
a report of the student's work must be submitted to the Col-
lege Department of Bible for approval before an examination will
be given.

(3) Credit will be given only after examination by the
College authorities.

CURRICULUM

ADMINISTRATION OF THE CURRICULUM

REGISTRATION

Students report first to the Treasurer's office, where all finan-
cial affairs are arranged; a card to this effect is furnished them
for presentation to the Registrar's office, where they are registered
and given their matriculation cards. They then meet with the
appropriate committees for classification.

Students are required to report to the Registrar's office after
the Christmas holidays before attending classes.

Note. — If, for any cause, a student fails to register in time to
attend her first scheduled lecture at the beginning of a semester,
she is charged a fee of $5.00 for late registration. This rule,
which is automatic as outlined above, is also applied to students
returning late from vacations, unless their excuses are approved
by the Dean.

CLASSIFICATION

Students are expected to make themselves thoroughly familiar
with the plan of the curriculum and to arrange their courses so
as to conform with its demands. By so doing they will greatly
reduce the necessarily arduous work of the committees.

First year students present their cards to the Committee on
Admission, and their courses are selected with the advice of
this Committee. On or before April 15th, all students at
that time in residence are required to file with the Registrar
tentative statements of their courses for the next ensuing year.

Curriculum 45

These programs are reviewed by the Committee on Electives
and approved or revised. The cards, with the courses entered
upon them in due form, are obtained from the Committee in
the fall, presented to the professors of the subjects, and, when
they have been properly signed, returned to the Registrar's office.
After a course has been agreed upon by the student, with the
advice of the Committee on Admission or the Committee on
Electives, no change will be permitted, unless the question of the
student's health be involved. All students must be definitely
classified within two weeks after their arrival at the College.

ATTENDANCE ON LECTURES

Students are required to attend their lectures regularly and
promptly. Absence from courses without due excuse results
inevitably in the lowering of the student's standing. Profes-
sors are authorized to require students to make up work by
taking written tests covering the periods lost through absence,
whether the absence be excused or unexcused.

EXAMINATIONS

1. General examinations are held twice a year, in January
and in May. Failure to attend any of these examinations, for
any cause other than sickness, results in the dropping of the
delinquent from the student body. In case of absence from
examination because of sickness, the student will be given an
opportunity to take the examination in question at the regular
time set for re-examinations. (See below.)

2. Examinations for advanced standing upon work done in
some other institution, or in the summer, must be taken at such
time as may be arranged by the professors whose departments
are concerned, provided that such examinations may not be
given later than December 15 th for the first semester's work.

46 Agnes Scott College

These examinations for advanced standing shall be more extended
than ordinary examinations. In case of a subject of three hours'
value, the examination shall be of at least five hours duration.
In case of subjects of less values, examinations shall be of cor-
responding proportion. In case of failvure on an examination for
advanced standing, no re-examination is permitted. These
examinations are given only at the College.

3. Any student desiring advanced standing credit by ex-
amination must pass such examination before being admitted to
any advanced course in the given subject. The latest date at
which any advanced standing examination may be given is in
September of the year following the admission of the student.

4. Re-examinations are allowed in the case of conditional
failure. These examinations for the first semester's work are
given in the second week of the second semester, and for the
second semester's work in the first week of the fall semester next
following. Those failing in the re-examination will be required
to repeat the course in question or forfeit the credit. In no
case will more than one re-examination be allowed in the same
subject.

In case of unconditional failure in a subject, no re-examina-
tion will be allowed.

5. If for any cause students find it advisable to apply for
examinations at any other time than that announced in the
regular schedule, or arranged for by the professors involved, such
applicants must present the Treasurer's receipt for five dollars
($5.00) for each examination desired, before the professors are
authorized to give the same. Such examinations are known as
"Special" examinations.

This regulation applies to re-examinations as well as to general
and advanced examinations.

Curriculum 47

SEMESTER AND YEAR CREDITS

A semester credit is the value in hours of any course pursued
through one semester. Thus, if a course scheduled for three
hours a week for one semester be taken, the resulting credit
towards the one hundred twenty- four semester hours required
for the degree is three semester hours. A year credit is the value
in semester hours of a course pursued throughout the year. Thus,
a course scheduled for three hours a week for the whole year
will give a credit of six semester hours towards the degree.

SUMMER WORK

Students wishing to make advanced standing credits during
the summer must communicate their plans to the College Com-
mittee on Advanced Standing and secure permission to do the
summer work before entering upon it.

No credit will be given for work of an undergraduate nature
unless a "merit" grade is received. A student may not receive
credit by examination for a summer course in which she has
received a grade lower than "merit."

The credit for each course taken at a Summer Session is de-
termined by the Advanced Standing Committee, but the maxi-
mum credit which may be obtained in a six weeks' summer
session is six semester hours.

LIMITATION OF HOURS

In order to prevent over-crowding of work, the following
regulation of the student's hours has been put into operation:

1. The maximum number of lecture or recitation hours a
week for Freshmen shall be fifteen, and the minimum fourteen.

48 Agnes Scott College

2. The maximum number of lecture or recitation hours a
week for advanced students shall be seventeen, and the minimum
fourteen. Second and third year students may not take the
maximum number of hours a week unless they shall have received
merit grades in at least two-fifths of their work for the preceding
session. Fourth year students may not take the maximum num-
ber of hours a week unless they shall have received merit grades
in at least one-half of their work for the preceding session.

MERIT HOURS

Grades indicating the student's standing in any course are
officially recorded as follows: "A," excellent attainment; "B,"
very good attainment; "C," good attainment; "D," passable at-
tainment; "E," failure, with privilege of re-examination; "F,"
failure, without privilege of re-examination. The grades "A,"
"B," and "C," are known as "merit" grades. At least sixty of
the one hundred twenty academic semester hours required for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts must be of the merit grade, the
remaining hours of the course being made with a grade of at
least "D." At least twelve semester hours of merit grade must
be credited to the student each year after the Freshman year.

Exact grades are not announced to students, their reports
containing only the information: "Passed with Merit," "Passed,"
or "Failed."

Note. — For a detailed explanation of the "Merit" require-
ments for admission to recognition in each of the three classes,
Sophomore, Junior, Senior, see notes preceding the o£ficial Register
of Students, page 15 8.

REQUIRED RESIDENCE

The degree will not be conferred upon any student who has
not done at least one full session of work in residence.

Curriculum 49

AUTOMATIC EXCLUSION

Any student whose work is notably unsatisfactory at the end
of the first semester is considered to have excluded herself auto-
matically from the College, unless by vote of the faculty she be
put on probation for the remainder of the year. If at the end
of the year she shall have failed to make credits to the extent
of at least fifteen semester hours in courses counting towards a
degree, she shall be considered to have excluded herself auto-
matically from the College for the next ensuing year.

A student who fails for two successive years to meet the re-
quirements for advancement to the next higher class, auto-
matically excludes herself from the College, unless by vote of the
faculty she be allowed to remain on probation.

Note. — In addition to the enforcement of the above laws,
the College reserves the right to request the withdrawal of
students who cannot remain in residence without danger to
their own health or to the health of others, or whose presence
is thought to lower the moral tone of the College. Students of
this last class may be asked to withdrav/, even though no specific
charges be made against them.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE

Candidates for the B.A. degree must present one hundred
twenty-four semester hours of work of which four semester hours
must be made in physical education. Certain covirses are re-
quired, as Hsted below, and others are elective. The program of
work for each student must be approved by the Committee on
Admission or the Committee on Electives. Since the design of
the curriculum is to reserve elective courses for the more mature

The purpose for which this department is conducted is to
maintain a high standard of efficiency in the pictorial and deco-
rative arts, and to give the student an intelligent appreciation of
the works of the masters.

Around this principle are grouped the various branches of art
education, giving in addition to technical training a knowledge
of the historical development of art, theory of design and color,
and practical work in the criticism and composition of pictures.

The studio practice is divided into four parts:

1. Drawing from cast and still life.

MUSIC

Professor Dieckmann
Mr. Johnson
Miss Douglas
Mrs. Johnson

The music department offers through its various courses in
the theoretical and practical study of music, in connection with
studies in the College, adequate facilities to fit students for a
professional life, and also to provide for the study of music as
a part of general culture or as an accomplishment. The aim is
to cultivate a more intelligent appreciation of the art, to un-
derstand its structure and its rich and varied literature, to know
the history of its development, its place in the general history of
culture, and to develop the power of interpretation.

Since no special line of study can be successful without a broad
foundation, students are virged not to undertake the study of
music exclusively until they have acqviired the essential elements
of a good general education.

With this end in view, the woit^of this department has been
arranged, and courses are oflFered, so that regular College
students, working for degree, may include music as a second-
ary study, with credit for it, and special students of music may
avail themselves of the training offered in the literary courses of
the College.

Degree Credit

Credit toward the degree will be allowed for courses in music
under the following conditions:

1. At the begitming of the session the student must pass a

102 Agnes Scott College

satisfactory examination in Course 101-102 (see page 103),
and demonstrate a sufficient technical ability to play correctly
— with regard to position of hands, fingering, phrasing, rhythm,
tempo, and dynamic effects — works of the grade of the simpler
two-part inventions of Bach; C major and G major sonatas of
Mozart; and some of the simpler Songs Without Words, of
Mendelssohn.

Note. — This requirement when offered at entrance into Col-
lege, will be accepted, upon examination only, as one imit in the
elective group. Only those who have had unvisually good train-
ing are advised to try this examination.

2. Students who have met the above requirement may re-
ceive a credit for practical music to the extent of four hours a
year for three years upon the satisfactory completion of the fol-
lowing work:

a. Two lessons weekly of half an hour each in piano or organ.

b. One hour and a half of practice daily for six days each
week.

c. Theoretical work amounting to at least two credit hours
in addition to the four hours of practical credit.

3. The total possible credit in practical music shall not ex-
ceed twelve hours, and the total possible credit for practical and
theoretical music shall not exceed eighteen hours.

Note. — If credit courses in spoken English be likewise elected,
not more than eighteen hours of music and spoken English com-
bined will be allowed to count towards the degree.

GENERAL INFORMATION

SITUATION

The College is located in Decatur, a city of about 10,000
population and noted for educational interests and advantages.
Since it is situated also only a mile from the city limits of
Atlanta, Agnes Scott has many opportunities for participating
in the educational, musical, artistic, social and religious life of
the city. In this metropolitan area are located thirty-four insti-
tutions of learning, besides public schools, bringing over fifteen
thousand students from all over the world, in addition to the
local patronage.

The campus is on the divide between the Atlantic seaboard
and the Gulf coast and has an elevation of 1,050 feet. The
water is freestone, and the climate free from extremes of heat
or cold.

BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT

The buildings of the College, thirty-six in number, including
several cottages occupied by members of the faculty, are sit-
uated upon a well-shaded and spacious campus of rare natural
beauty. "With the exception of the "White House, the Infirmary,
and the Laundry, all the principal buildings are substantially con-
structed of brick, with trimmings of granite, limestone, or mar-
ble. Readers of this Bulletin will be especially interested in
such of these buildings as form the working plant of the in-
stitution, and so the following brief description is given. Ap-
plication may be made to the Registrar for any special infor-
mation that may be desired concerning the halls of residence.

Academic Halls

The Agnes Scott Hall was the gift of the late Colonel
George "W. Scott, the revered and generous friend of the College

126 Agnes Scott College

by whose munificence its existence was originally made possible.
This building contains the offices of administration, besides
various lecture-rooms, reception rooms, the art studio, and piano
practice rooms. It is centrally situated and easily accessible from
all parts of the campus. (See also Residence Halls, below.)

The Carnegie Library Building, the gift of Mr. Andrew
Carnegie, is a two-story structure containing a lofty and spa-
cious reading-room, librarian's office, special department study
rooms, and stack space for twenty thousand volumes. The most
approved card-index system of cataloguing and the service of
a trained librarian render all books easily available to students.
The reading-room is supplied with the leading literary, scien-
tific and educational magazines, and with journals of music and
art. In addition to the general library, mention should be made
of the scientific library in Lowry Hall. The library is open
every day except Sundays and holidays, from 8 a. m. to 6 p. m.
and from 7 to 9:30 p. m.

The Lowry Hall affords excellent accommodation for the
departments of biology, chemistry and physics. It is equipped
throughout with all appliances necessary for the proper teaching
of these subjects, including electricity, gas, and hot and cold
water, both in the lecture-rooms and in the various laboratories.
On the left side of the main entrance is a bronze tablet with this
inscription:

"This Science Hall is perpetually endowed by Robert J. and
Emma C. Lowry in Memory of their Son, William Markham
Lowry, Anno Domini, 1910."

The department of biology contains three laboratories, a lecture
room, a professor's office, a vivarium, a photographic room, a
storage room, and a museum. The work of instruction and

General Information 127

research commands the aid of suitable apparatus, such as mi-
croscopes, microtomes, ovens, baths, charts and illustrative col-
lections.

The department of chemistry is well supplied with chemi-
cals and chemical apparatus and the laboratories have every
modern convenience that could be desired. Besides a large base-
ment, there are five commodious laboratories, a lecture-room,
a research laboratory, a professor's office, a library, three storage
rooms, and two balance rooms.

In addition to these laboratories a geological museum is being
equipped, and already a considerable number of fossils and
mineralogical specimens are on hand.

The department of physics contains a large lecture-room, a
professor's office and reference library, a dark-room, a large and
well-equipped laboratory, and two store rooms.

Philosophy Hall, a two-story building, contains the lecture-
rooms of the departments of philosophy, education and English.

BucHER Scott Gymnasium-Auditorium. This excellent
building affords accommodations for some of the most useful
College activities. It is one hundred seventy-five feet long and
one hundred six feet wide. The main gymnasium room is ninety
feet by seventy, and there are two auxiliary gymnasium rooms.
The stage is eighty by forty feet and equipped with the modern
four-color lights. The auditorium has a capacity of nearly two
thousand people. The swimming pool room is eighty-two by
forty-two feet, and the pool itself is sixty by twenty-five feet,
the room and pool being tile lined. There are five offices for
physician and physical directors, four rest rooms, special quar-
ters for day students, and five rooms for general student activ-
ities.

128 Agnes Scott College

Gymnasium Hall is a three-story building formerly used for
the physical education department, but now transformed into
recitation rooms. It also houses certain student activities.

Residence Halls

There are four residence halls, in addition to five cottages,
giving dormitory space for three hundred and fifty. All these
buildings are comfortably equipped, lighted by electricity and
heated by steam, and all contain both double and single rooms.
Each floor of every hall is furnished with conveniently placed
groups of bathrooms, with beds, and other necessary equipment,
including a clothespress or wardrobe for each occupant. Abundant
fire escapes, together with hose, fire buckets, and extinguishers
on every floor, reduce to a minimum the danger of fire; but as
an additional precaution the residence halls are under the con-
stant and careful supervision of a watchman who is on duty all
of every night.

The Agnes Scott Hall contains, besides the administrative
offices, lecture-rooms, etc., above referred to, dormitory space
for about seventy-five students.

The Rebekah Scott Hall, a memorial to the late Mrs.
Rebekah Scott, wife of Colonel George W. Scott, contains, be-
sides two dormitory floors, the College Chapel, the halls of the
two debating societies, a large dining-room, a commodious lobby,
and various reception rooms. A colonnade connects this building
with the Agnes Scott Hall and thus renders available for the
latter building the dining-room of the former.

The Jennie D. Inman Hall, a gift to the College of the
late Samuel Martin Inman (for many years the honored Chair-
man of the Board of Trustees) , as a memorial to his deceased

General Information 129

wife, has three floors devoted entirely to bedrooms. The wide
veranda of the building is extended to meet that of the White
House, in which is located the dining-room for both these halls.

The White House affords accommodation for a number of
the ladies of the faculty, and has besides limited space for the
occupation of students. The entire lower floor of this building
is occupied by the dining-room, kitchen, pantries, etc.

Five Cottages situated on the campus offer accommodation
for about fifty students. These cottages are comfortably fur-
nished and supplied with all modern conveniences.

Auxiliary Buildings

The Anna Young Alumnae House was erected through
the joint efforts of the Trustees and the Alumnae in memory
of Miss Young, who was for twenty-one years a beloved teacher
in the College. It is a beautiful brick cottage, well equipped
with a tea room for the use of the College community and with
facilities for taking care of guests. It is especially a home for
returning Alumnae and is under the general management of the
Alumnae Association.

» The Alumnae Infirmary, a well-built, two-story house,
situated south of Lowry Hall, was added to the College plant
through the efforts of the Alumnae. The building has been
arranged so that it is admirably adapted to its purpose.

Jft In recognition of the generosity and affectionate interest of
the Alumnae in their Alma Mater, the Trustees have named
the building The Alumnae Infirmary.

Electric and Steam Plant. — Electric light and steam heat
are supplied to all the College buildings from a modern and weU-
equipped plant situated on the south border of the campus.

130 Agnes Scott College

Steam Laundry. — A steam laundry, adjoining the electric
and steam plant, is operated for the benefit of the College com-
munity.

any cause.

The charges are made for the college year as a unit, and are
not intended to be divided between the semesters. The payment
permitted on January 1st is to cover the balance due for the
session, and it is not the second semester charge and therefore
due later. If the College is notified by January 1st that a student
wishes to complete the work of the first semester and to with-
draw before the beginning of the second term, the President has
discretion to allow this without the January payment. In the
case of all students wishing to have places reserved for the re-
mainder of the session, it is necessary that payment be made or
satisfactory terms arranged with the Treasurer as above provided.

General Information 141

will be $10.00 more for the session than half of the regular fee
would be.

All correspondence relating to financial aflFairs should be di-
rected to the Treasurer.

All remittances should be made payable to Agnes Scott Col-
lege. Due to the clearing house rules, our banks charge ex-
change on local checks. In view of this fact we request that
patrons kindly make remittances in either New York or Atlanta
exchange, or Postal Money Order. However, if a local check
is preferable please add (%) of 1 per cent, for exchange.

Notes

All who have engaged rooms prior to the opening of the ses-
sion will be charged from the beginning of the session or semester.

When a patron finds it necessary to request deferred payment
of bills when due, special arrangements must be made in ad-
vance of arrival of the student with the Treasurer, since no
student will be allowed to enter college where the financial ar-
rangements have not been perfected. In all such cases, the Board
of Trustees has directed that notes be taken bearing six per cent
interest from date payment was due.

This clause is not meant to indicate that the College makes a
practice of granting deferred payments, and the same are not
granted except for good reasons, which are satisfactory to the
Finance Committee, arranged through the Treasurer, at least ten

142 Agnes Scott College

days prior to the date payment is due. Deferred payments will
not be granted unless arranged in this manner, and further,
where such terms are arranged it is obligatory that such notes
will be met promptly on due date.

No student will be allowed to attend classes at the beginning
of any semester where her account is tmpaid.

The Laboratory fee must be paid before entering classes in
chemistry, biology, physics or psychology for the entire session,
and will not be refunded for any cause. In addition a deposit of
Five ($5.00) Dollars is required of chemistry students. This
will be refunded in May except so much as is necessary to pay
for breakage of returnable apparatus. This refund, if not claimed
by the student, at the Treasurer's office, prior to Commencement
Day is automatically forfeited.

The College employs a resident physician and a resident trained
nurse. It also maintains an infirmary with the conveniences of
a modern hospital. The $10.00 medical fee assists in covering
the above expenses.

No student will be received for less than a full term, or the
portion of the term remaining after entrance. The professors
are engaged and all arrangements made for the scholastic year,
and the College obligates itself to furnish the advantages thus
provided for the session. The entering of a student is a corres-
ponding obligation on the part of the patron to continue the
student to the end of the session. In the event of withdrawaal
on account of sickness of the stttdent, the amount paid for board
and laundry in advance of date of leaving will be refunded, but
not amount paid for tuition.

General Information 143

Refunds are computed on the session charges during the first
semester and on the January payment for the second semester.

No DEDUCTION FOR ANY CAUSE WILL BE ALLOWED STUDENTS

AFTER March 15 th.

No claim for a refund for any cause will be considered un-
less it is filed with the Treasurer on or before the 1st of May
in the year such refund is asked.

Students who register for any "Special" must continue it for
the semester. The only exceptions to this rule will be the dis-
continuance upon the recommendation of the College Physician
or the faculty committee, and then the only grounds for non-
payment of the account or a refund, if paid, will be the health
of the student or such a heavy schedule of required work that
the "Special" can not be continued without injury to the student.

When permission has been secured from either of the above
sources it is obligatory upon the student to notify the Treasurer
within three days after permission has been granted. The fail-
ure to do this forfeits any claim for a refund. In the event a
"Special" has been continued for as long a period as six weeks
there will be no refund for any cause.

Correspondence concerning the general management of the
College, or concerning the welfare or interest of students should
be addressed to the President.

Correspondence concerning the life in the dormitories, or
health, or discipline of students should be addressed to tlie Dean.

It is recommended that each student be provided with $20.00
upon entrance to college in order that she may be able to pur-

144 Agnes Scott College

chase the necessary books and stationery. These are sold by the
College at city prices for cash only.

It is hoped that parents will make only moderate allowance
to their daughters for spending money. When money is de-
posited with the Treasurer for students, it is paid out on their
checks, and no other account is kept by the College except
cancelled checks.

The College will not advance money to students.

In cases of protracted sickness or contagious diseases, parents
must provide a nurse at their own expense.

Matrons must pay for medicines and for consultations.

A fee of $5.00 is charged for B.A. diploma and $2.00 for
music or art certificate.

All dues to the College must be paid before either diploma or
certificate will be awarded.

The College reserves the right to request the withdrawal of
a student at any time where the financial affairs have not been
satisfactorily arranged. In the event of such withdrawal there
will be no refund of any money previously paid.

The College exercises every precaution to protect property
of students, but will not be responsible for losses of any kind.

For the accommodation of students and teachers the College
receives packages for them, and the utmost care is taken to
have these packages properly delivered to the owners, but the
College will not be responsible for any losses that may occur.

The boarding department will be closed during the Christ-
mas holidays. For the accommodation of those who remain,
one dormitory will be kept open, but no provision is made by
the College for meals.

Furniture

The College supplies each room with bedstead, bureau, ward-
robe, washstand, chairs, mattress, pillows, and crockery. Each
student should bring with her sheets, blankets, counterpanes,
pillow-cases (3 5x22), towels, napkins, napkin-ring, teaspoon,
and any article, as rugs, curtains, etc., of use or ornament desired
for her room. The bedclothes should be the size used for single
or three-quarter beds.

All articles, including trunks, must be plainly and durably
marked with the name of the owner. Failure to comply with
this requirement causes great inconvenience and sometimes loss.

Arrivals at Night

Students arriving in Atlanta in time for the official opening
of College in September are met, on request, by a representative of
the College, without charge.

At all other times a chaperone's fee of $2.50 will be charged
for meeting trains before 9 P. M. If two or more students are
met the charge is to be divided equally among them.

General Information 147

After 9 P. M. the fee is $5.00.

Students, when met under the above rule, are expected to
pay to the Dean the fee on the day following their arrival, since
no account will be opened on the Treasurer's books for this fee.

Guests

The College regrets that it has been found necessary to limit
the free hospitality it has heretofore extended. Since every space
in the dormitories is occupied by faculty and students, guests
cannot be entertained without serious inconvenience except from
Saturday to Monday. At such times, after consultation with the
Dean, vacancies caused by the temporary absence of students may
be utilized for guests at a charge of one dollar and fifty cents a
day. "Whether guests are being entertained for the week-end or
for a single meal, permission must be obtained from the Dean
and meal tickets procured at the business office.

The above regulations do not apply to the Alumna;. When
they desire to visit the College they are asked to communicate
with the Dean stating the date and the length of the proposed
visit.

All guests are expected to conform to the dormitory regu-
lations.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

The student organizations and publications occupy a most
important place in the community life of the College, and are
commended as valuable educational aids in the work of training
young women for the highest efficiency. It will be evident that
these enterprises entail a certain amount of financial expenditure.
In order to reduce this expense to a minimum, and at the same
time to insure the continued life and activity of the various

148 Agnes Scott College

necessary developments of the student body, a general co-oper-
ative plan has been devised by the students, as follows:

At some time in the early fall, an opportunity is given to all
students to contribute $10.00 toward the general support of Col-
lege community enterprises for the fall semester. At the be-
ginning of the spring semester, a similar opportunity is given for
a contribution of $5.00 for the remainder of the session. Thus,
by the paying of Fifteen ($15.00) Dollars in the course of the
year, the student is relieved of the frequent assessments which
would otherwise be necessary. This contribution is of course
entirely voluntary, but it would be well for those who are in-
terested in the general activities described below to understand
approximately what financial demand will be made upon them,
and to come prepared to meet it.

Note. — The organizations here named are those involving the
entire student body. The various other organizations, literary,
dramatic, honorary, and social, are, of course, limited in mem-
bership and so are not covered by the $15.00 of the budget
system.

Organizations

The Student Government Association. — ^This organiza-
tion, based upon a charter granted by the faculty, has for its
purpose the ordering and control of the dormitory life and of
most other matters not strictly academic. Its membership in-
cludes all the students. The most gratifying results have con-
tinually followed the increase of opportunity and of responsi-
bility thus given to the students, especially in the development of
self-restraint, consideration for the majority, and the true co-
operative spirit.

General Information 149

Young Women's Christian Association. — The objects of
this Association are:

To develop the spiritual life of the students.

To co-operate with other student associations in the general
work of the Young Women's Christian Association.

To do all possible to advance the Kingdom of God.

The various departments of the Association work are well or-
ganized and render efficient service. The Association has the
sympathetic interest and support of the faculty, while the stu-
dent body, with few exceptions, are members. The leaders among
the students are also the leaders in this work, and thus the
organization wields a large influence for good.

Athletic Association. — Athletic sports, not including the
regular gymnastic classes, are managed by the Athletic Associa-
tion. There are three sports seasons. During the Fall season
hockey and swimming are major sports, and tennis a minor sport;
during the winter season, basket ball and water polo are major
sports and volley ball a minor; during the spring season, baseball,
track and swimming are major sports and tennis a minor.

An athletic field affords excellent opportunity for hockey,
baseball and track, while six tennis courts are in almost constant
use the whole year.

The Athletic Association also manages a camp at Stone Moun-
tain, where groups may go for the week-ends.

Public Lecture Association. — An organization of students
and faculty has been formed for the purpose of inviting noted
speakers, from time to time, to address the College community.
These lectures are likewise open to the public upon the payment
of a small fee.

150 Agnes Scott College

Publications

The students issue the following publications:

The Aurora. — A quarterly magazine devoted to the develop-
ment of literary eflfort among the students.

The Silhouette. — The annual, published by the student
body. It is intended to give, in humorous and artistic vein, a
record of the student life for the current year.

The Agonistic. — A weekly newspaper published by the stu-
dent body. It has as its object the promotion of loyalty to the
College and the dissemination of local news.

The Y. W. C. A. Handbook. — A manual of information is-
sued annually by the Association.

RELIGIOUS LIFE

Every effort is made to promote earnest and pronounced re-
ligious life in the College. Students are requested to select the
chvirch they desire to make their church home as soon as practical
after arrival. Ordinarily this must be the church of their par-
ents. They are expected to attend this church on Sunday morn-
ing. Attendance on daily morning prayers is required.

The regular Sunday evening service and the mission study
classes, conducted by the Young Women's Christian Association,
are largely attended, as is also the tri-weekly vesper service in the
chapel under the leadership of members of the faculty.

APPOINTMENT COMMITTEE

The faculty has appointed a Committee with a view to as-
sisting Agnes Scott students in securing positions. All grad-
uates and other students of the College who desire to teach or do

General Information 151

other work are invited to apply for registration blanks, fill them
out and file them with this committee. Address the Registrar.

ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION

During the Commencement of 1895 the Agnes Scott Alumnae
Association was organized. The purpose of the Association is to
promote the welfare of the College and its alumnas by increasing
the interest of its members in the College and in each other.

The work of the general association is conducted largely
through the Alumnse Council and the standing committees, the
annual meeting being held in Atlanta during Commencement
week. Two alumnae represent the Association on the Board of
Trustees.

The Association has established the Agnes Scott Aid League,
which will lend money to students who need to borrow in order
to complete their College course. Not more than $150.00 will
be loaned to any student in one year. These loans do not bear
interest and are to be repaid whenever the student shall be in a
position to do so.

Applications for loans should be made to the President of the
Association through the President of the College.

The officers of the Association are as follows:

President — Mrs. J. Sam Guy, '13, 1669 Decatur Road, N. E.,
Atlanta.

First Vice-President — ^Mrs. Milton C. Scott, '15, 306 Avery
St., Decatur.

Second Vice-President — Mrs. Francis O. Clarkson, '22, 506
Clement Ave., Charlotte, N. C.

Secretary — Miss Margaret Bland, '20, Agnes Scott College.

152 AGNES Scott College

Treasurer — Miss Carrie Scandrett, '24, Agnes Scott College.
General Secretary — Miss Polly Stone, '24, Alumnae House,
Agnes Scott College.
