General Information.
ORGANIZATION.
THIS Institution was incorporated by special act of the
General Assembly of the State of Tennessee, in the
year 1867, under the name, East Tennessee Wesleyan
University. The present name and amended charter were
adopted by the Board of Trustees, February 3, 1886, in
response to a general desire that a living monument be erected
and dedicated to the memory of that greatest soldier and
statesman of our age. General U. S. Grant.
The especial fitness of such a tribute to our noblest
citizen, will be readily understood when it is generally known
that after the close of the civil war he was in the closest
sympathy with all efforts to promote the educational in-
terests of the South, and was, from its foundation, one of
the foremost and staunchest friends of this Institution. In
1867, when the first steps were taken in its organization, he
said, "I want to help the class of people for whom this
school is being established, for I believe a Christian education
among the masses of the Central South is now a necessity."
His material aid together with that of other friends of
general education, has enabled this Institution to take and
hold high rank among the schools of the South during
twenty years of continued usefulness. Over three thousand
students have been educated in these halls; nearly two
hundred men and women have completed regular collegiate
(35)
36 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
courses and received die appropriate degrees; sixty ministers
of various Christian denominations, and over one thousand
teachers have been prepared for active hfe, and all have gone
forth to spread the genial influences of liberal education
throughout every state in the South.
Senator Wm. M. Evarts has then well said: "No monu-
ment more noble, more permanent, or more secure in the
reverence of this people could be chosen, on which to inscribe
the name of General Grant, than this University."
Grant Memorial University, America's intellectual
tribute to the memory of her most honored citizen, stands,
also, a monument to the oneness of our preserved union, an
evidence of the genuine sympathy which has grown up
between the north land and the south and ensures a rapid
development of the great intellectual, agricultural and mineral
resources of the Central South until all sections alike shall be
perrrieated with the grand vital impulses of the highest civil-
ization, until there shall be no longer a North, a South, an
East, or a West, but one heart and one mind — the heart and
mind of the American people.
One year has passed since the name of Grant was adopted
and the sphere of the University enlarged, and general favor
and approbation has been evidenced on every side. Leading
statesmen and learned men, citizens and patriots everywhere
have kindly and earnestly commended the enterprise. Rapid
progress is being made in securing permanent endowment,
and a largely increased patronage attests the approval of the
Central South.
The location of the University is eminently favorable for
a great and permanent work, being readily accessible from all
parts of the Country, and in the midst of the Central South
which is now just recovered from the exhaustion of civil war

and awakened to new life and prosperity. Athens, the seat
of the University, is located in the mountain region of East
Tennessee, one thousand feet above the sea level and apart
from all miasma, whether of swamps or the overflow of great
rivers.
Mountain ranges stretch their undulating outlines along
either horizon and thrust their outlying sentinels within a few
miles of the village, while the cool breezes from their summits
both mitigate the heat of summer and refresh the lungs
with resinous odors so grateful to the senses and so beneficial
to the health.
Athens being situated on the main line of the East Ten-
nessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad is readily reached from
all points East and North by way of Knoxville, and from the
West and South as well as the North by way of Chattanooga.
INSTRUCTION.
The reorganization of the University, has enabled the
Trustees to greatly strengthen the Faculty, and to offer
Courses of Study equal to the high and well balanced stand-
ards adopted by the first class schools of our country and
demanded by the culture and practical tendencies of the age.
Besides important revision of the Courses in Liberal Arts,
Philosophy, and Science, a new Department has been estab-
lished with full Courses in Technical Science. These courses
have been carefully prepared with special reference to laying
a broad substantial foundation of technical and general
knowledge, so necessary for the successful prosecution of all
the agricultural, mechanical, and scientific professions. They
will be open this year to all students prepared to enter the
Freshman Classes.
38 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
The Professional Departments have been materially
strengthened, and the courses of study carefully revised.
Students will find them fully up to the highest standard of
excellence.
Experienced and able Professors will be permanently
added to the Faculty as rapidly as the classes organized in the
new departments require it.
NATURAL SCIENCE.
During the present year very large additions have been
made to the facilities of this Department, and the classes have
had the benefit of full and practical instruction in all branches
of Physical Science and Natural History. Apparatus and
material costing over $3000.00 have been procured since the
beginning of the year, and collections in Natural History are
being arranged for the systematic exhibit of the classes and
orders.
The Physical Laboratory is provided with ample apparatus
for the illustrations of the laws of Motion, Heat, Sound,
Light, and Electricity; the latter important subject being
especially well illustrated by Electric Lamps of various styles
and sizes, Electric Motor, Magnetic Telephones, Telegraph
Instruments with lines, Microphones, Batteries, Liducrion
Coils, and Listruments of Measurement.
The Chemical Laboratory is provided with ample material
for the study of General Chemistry, and complete apparatus
and re-agent tables for analytical research.
For the study of Natural History a valuable collection of
Fossils, Minerals, Plants, and Animals is now being arranged
for convenient study and reference. A fine Microscope
(Tolles) and other useful apparatus are used in this depart-
ment.
GENERAL INFORMATION. 39
APPLIED SCIENCE AND INDUSTRIAL ART.
The instruction in this Department is based upon the
theory that the highest success of the Farmer, the Engineer,
the Architect, or the Mechanic, depends as much on his
general education as upon his technical knowledge and man-
ual skill. Mental discipline is valuable in proportion as it
enables any one to do his work better and more intelligently,
and to more fully understand the relations existing between
his business and other industries and professions.
The Courses of Study are so arranged that the work of
each student can be directed in whatever line his practical
work may demand. This is especially true in Engineering,
as the last two years of study may be devoted to Mechanics,
Geology, and Mining, Surveying and Civil Engineering, or
Electrical Engineering as may be preferred.
The general aim is to make well-balanced cultured profes-
sional men, neither pedantic theorists nor intolerant "prac-
tical men" but specialists, trained to meet the demands of our
practical age and the requirements of an ever growing and
elevating industry. Students in all these courses will be
expected to spend six to ten hours a week in active work on
the farm or in the shop, that they may learn the use and care
of tools and understand the practical details of every subject
studied.
THEOLOGY.
Candidates for the Christian Ministry will find every
facility for pursuing their special studies in connection with
the Literary and Scientific Departments. Hebrew, and Greek
Testament, and other special branches, may be substituted for
equivalent studies in other departments when it will not
40 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
interfere with the standard of general culture. Such substi-
tutions must in all cases be approved by the Faculty.
Instruction will be given by lecture and recitation, and as
time will permit, free discussion will be allowed. Collateral
reading will be indicated from time to time, according to the
proficiency and capacity of the student, but a full course of
the prescribed reading and study must be accompanied with
a good Christian conduct and character in order to entitle the
student to the degree, S. T. B., Sac7^ae Theologiae Baccalaureus.
The candidate for this degree must likewise come properly
recommended.
The form authorized by the Methodist Episcopal Church is :
We the Members of the Quaj'terly Conference of
hereby express our judgment that is called of God
to the work of the ministry, and we commend him to the care and
instruction of Grant Memorial University.
If this cannot be obtained in time, a similar certificate
from a pastor in good standing will be required.
Applicants from other churches are required to bring the
certificates usually given by the denominations to which they
belong.
Exercises in Public Speaking. — Ample opportunity is afforded
for the exercise of all the classes in the weekly meetings of the
Theological Society in extemporaneous speaking, the delivery
of sermons, reading, etc. The members of the Junior Class
will be permitted to hold public services in the various
churches in the neighborhood, as opportunity may offer, under
the direction of the Dean of Theology.
Fijiancial Aid. — Young men who are industrious and who
know how to economize, are often able to work their way,
unaided, through the College and Theological Department.
Should a persevering and deserving student, however, find it

necessary to receive aid, such assistance will be given as far
as practicable. A spirit of self-reliance is cultivated as the
basis of a manly and successful career.
The doors of the Department are always open to conse-
crated young men who never quail in the presence of
difficulties, and every effort consistent with the building up of
a manly character will be made to aid them in securing a good
education. Almost all churches have societies instituted for
this purpose, and each denomination will be expected to aid
students in its communion, needing help.
LAW.
This Department is designed to prepare students for
admission to the Bar, and aid those who are desirous of
acquiring knowledge in any branch of legal learning. The
business man may with great propriety and profit pursue
studies appropriate to his avocation. The Course of Study
occupies two years. There is one session each year com-
mencing on the first Wednesday in November and ending first
Wednesday in April. Instruction is given by Recitation and
Lectures. Moot Courts are held under the direction of the
Professors, at which appropriate questions are argued by the
students. No entrance examination is required, except for
advanced standing. Candidates for the degree, LL.B., must
attend at least one full session at the University, pass a satis-
factory examination upon the whole course, and submit to the
Faculty an original essay upon some legal subject.
MUSIC.
The design of this Department is to furnish thorough
instruction in the various branches of music. With this object
42 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
in view systematic study will be given to the fundamental
principles of music; to the different Forms and Periods; and
to the works of the Masters.
Students will be received at any time, and after satisfactory
examination will be given due credit for the progress already
made.
Students cannot pass from one grade to another until the
work of the former has been completed in a satisfactory
manner.
The time necessary to complete the course cannot be stated
in advance, but will depend upon the previous attainments of
the students ; upon their ability ; and upon the amount of time
devoted to the study. At least one year of study in the
Department will be required before graduation.
Normal Work. — To meet the increasing demand for well
qualified teachers, special attention will be given those desiring
to teach. Classes will be organized for instruction in the best
methods of teaching; and in these students may give lessons
under the direction of the teacher. The Normal work is free
to all receiving regular instruction in the Department.
Among the advantages offered, none are of greater import-
ance for general culture than the Studies in Musical Literature
together with the Recitals and Concerts that will be given
from time to time. Advanced students will also receive drill
in Ensemble playing.
While no student will be allowed to take part in any public
musical entertainment without the consent of the teacher, all
students are required to assist in such work when they can do
so with credit to themselves and the Department.
GENERAL INFORMATION. 43
FINE ART.
Arrangements have been made by which students in the
University may have the advantage of instruction in Drawing
and Painting. For the present this department will be under
the supervision of a member of the Facuky who received his
art education in one of the first art schools of Europe. The
course includes Free Hand Drawing, Mechanical and Archi-
tectural Designing, Sketching from Nature and Figure, and
Landscape Painting in Oil, Water Color or Distemper.
Instruction will also be given in the principles of Photog-
raphy and its applications to mechanical, portrait, and land-
scape work.
COMMERCIAL CLASSES
Are organized for the accommodation of those who wish
instruction in Bookkeeping, Penmanship, Short Hand and
Telegraphy. These useful branches may be pursued in con-
nection with the regular class work, and thus add little to the
expense of a liberal education.
PREPARATORY CLASSES.
The importance of thorough and systematic preparation
for higher studies and extended courses, has determined the
Trustees to arrange for concerted and harmonious action
among the principal Seminaries and Academies that are
tributary to the University, by the adoption of a uniform
Course of Study leading to the regular College and Technical
Classes.
Besides the Department at Athens the following schools
are comprised in the association and students from them will
be received without examination upon presentation of certifi-
cates from their respective Principals.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.
The University is preeminently a Christian school. A
healthy moral and Christian atmosphere pervades the work in
every department, though no subscription to particular church
creeds nor compliance with exclusive forms of worship is
required. The Theological Department is now, as in the past,
educating ministers of several denominations, and the various
churches in the town always welcome students to their services.
The young men and young women each maintain a
Christian Association which holds regular weekly meetings.
All students are required to attend religious exercises in
the University Chapel on each school day, and public worship
in one of the churches Sabbath morning. The University is
under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and
owes much of its usefulness to the lo}^al and intelligent
support of the Holston, Blue Ridge, Alabama, Virginia,
Georgia, and Central Tennessee Conferences.
READING AND RHETORICAL EXERCISES.
Especial attention will be given to these important branches
in all departments and during the entire year. Each member
of the Senior Class is required to deliver one original address
in the University Chapel each term. Each Literary Society
GENERAL INFORMATION. 45
will be permitted to give one public entertainment during the
year under the direction of some member of the Faculty.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
There are four Literary Societies organized under the laws
of the University- the Athenian, Philomathean, and Simpson-
ian (Theological) for Gentlemen, and the Sapphonian, for
Ladies. All have separate halls for meeting, large, active
membership, and appropriate Libraries.
LECTURES.
During the winter months, eminent Lecturers are engaged
to address the students on social and literary topics. As a
matter of general culture these courses have been of great
interest and benefit to all classes of students.
RECITATIONS AND EXAMINATIONS,
Each student is required to have not less than fifteen nor
more than twenty recitations per week, unless especially
excused by the Faculty. A record is kept by each Professor,
showing the grade of each student's daily work, and this
together with the result of a thorough public examination at
the end of the term, must show an average of 60 in a scale
of 100 before the student can be passed in any study.
New students must give satisfactory evidence as to their
knowledge of the studies previously pursued by the classes
they wish to enter, either upon examination or by certificate
of the principal of the school from which they come.
It is very important that students enter classes at the
beginning of the term, and keep in mind that constant,
prompt attendance is necessary for the attainment of high
46 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
grades. Students shall not leave classes nor take up new
studies except upon written approval of the proper officers.
Candidates for degrees will not be permitted to pursue
studies in advance of their classes, nor will any one be
allowed to take studies for which he is not duly prepared.
Students in the University will not be permitted to take
lessons from any one outside the Faculty except by express
permission asked and granted.
Students, not candidates for degrees, may pursue studies in
any Department for which they are prepared. Certificates,
showing the amount and grade of work done by them, will be
given upon application to the Dean of the Department.
The University confers the following Degrees :
Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) upon all who complete the
Classical Course of Study.
Bachelor of Philosophy (Ph.B.) upon all who complete
the Philosophical Course.
Bachelor of Science (B.S.) upon all who complete the
Scientific, Agricultural, Engineering, or Industrial Art Courses.
Bachelor of Theology (S.T. B.) upon all who complete
the Theological Course.

EXPENSES.
The entire history of the University has been character-
ized by the efforts of its trustees and Faculty to reduce the
cost of a liberal education to such low figures that the poorest
students need not be deterred on account of their financial
condition. It is a source of great satisfaction that the efforts
made in this direction have been so successful, and that stu-
dents in the humblest circumstances are here able to obtain a
liberal education and prepare themselves for any of the
practical and learned professions they may desire to pursue.
It is, without doubt, true that no other Institution in the
world, of like grade, can offer such advantages for higher
education at so little cost.
While a number of students board themselves and work
to pay their way, there are no social or class distinctions that
separate them from those who have more ample means. The
University knows no aristocracy but character and merit, and
the heroic efforts of poor students command universal respect
and consideration from both students and Faculty.
From the following table of expenses the actual outlay in
any department may be readily computed :
Tuition in Regular College Classes, per term, .... $8.00
Tuition in Preparatory Department, per term, . . . . 5.00
Ministerial Students half above rates.
Tuition in Agriculture, Engineering, or Industrial Art,
per term, 20.00

Room in Hall v^dth heavy furniture, per term, .... 1.50
Room for self board, with furniture, per term, . . . . 1.50
Students board themselves at a weekly expense of .60 to i.oo
Habits of economy and industry are encouraged in all, and
every possible aid will be rendered worthy men and women in
their eiTorts to keep their expenses low, and in surrounding
them with home like influences. Ministers of the Gospel and
their families will be allowed tuition in regular College and
Preparatory Classes at one half the regular rates, but the
Incidental Fee must be paid in full by every one who enters
the University. No deduction will be made except in cases
of prolonged sickness or unavoidable absence during more than
one half the term, when one half the tuition paid will be
refunded.
All Fees must be paid in advance and no Professor shall
receive a student into his classes except upon presentation of
a ticket showing that settlement has been made with the Reg-
istrar of the Faculty.
GENERAL INFORMATION. 49
GOVERNMENT.
The Regulations of the University are few and simple,
based upon the usages of Christian homes and refined society.
They appeal to the student's honor and self-respect, insist upon
regular habits, inculcate respect for law and order and inspire
a love for the gentler and unselfish qualities that characterize
the true Gentleman and the refined Lady. A faithful observ-
ance of the hours set apart for study and regular and prompt
attendance upon all classes, exercises, or other duties involved
by the student's connection with the University will be firmly
insisted upon.
Students will be held responsible for damage done by
them to any property of the University.
The association of Ladies and Gentlemen must be strictly
in accordance with the regulations of the Faculty.
No meeting of students in the University buildings for the
transaction of business, and no exercises whatever to which
the public are admitted, whether by society or individual stu-
dents, shall be held except with the consent of the Faculty
previously obtained.
The Regulations of the University are printed in detail
together with such other information as may be of interest
and benefit to new students, and may be obtained from any
officer of the Faculty.
It is desired that all students examine them carefully
before matriculating, as all who become members of the
school must agree to conform to them; and any one who per-
sists in their violation shall be dismissed without hesitation.
EQUIVALENT AND ELECTIVE STUDIES.
Students in Literature, Science and Philosophy will be
permitted to substitute studies in other Courses for some of
those enumerated.
5 3 GRANT MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY.
Students in Engineering will be required to arrange their
studies with reference to the profession they expect to pursue,
and select from the subjects in the Course a sufficient number
to give them twenty weekly recitations.
All substitutions and selections must be of such character
as shall not lower the grade of scholarship and culture. The
approval of the Faculty must be had in every instance.
ENDORSEMENTS
" I congratulate you, my countrymen, that under the name of
the illustrious hero General Grant, there has been founded in the
mountains of Tennessee, away up among the clouds and in the
pure air of heaven, in the midst of a loyal and patriotic popula-
tion, an institution of learning which will be a blessing to all the
people of the South, and I trust to all the people of the North.
Every aid possible should be showered from the North and South
alike." — Sen. John Sherman, Ohio.
" Knowing what such a college as this on the hills of East Ten-
nessee means in that reclaimed section of our Union, knowing
what it means for the republic, knowing what it means for human-
ity, knowing what in its influence it means for the future of my
country, I say God bless it, and God put it into your hearts to help
the Grant University of East Tennessee, and give it means to do its
great and needed work in the education of the South, and thereby
for the republic, of which we are citizens." — Gov. John D. Long,
Mass.
"I fully endorse the enterprise, and commend it to the favor-
able consideration of a generous public. May it grow as the fame
of the great man whose name it bears grew, until its character is
known and its benefits felt by the whole American people." — Sen.
Joseph E. Brown, Ga.
ENDORSEMENTS. 5 1
" No monument more noble, more permanent, or more secure
in the reverence of this people could be chosen on which to
inscribe the name of General Grant than this University. This
illustrious name shall be written in many forms on marble and on
brass, on arches and on mausoleums. But here this name shall
be engraven on the flesh tablets of the hearts of all the scholars
of this University, and will be written in characters of living light
all over the conduct and the careers, the names and the fame, of
all these educated men who shall issue from Grant University, as
the impulse and the energy of their lives." — Sen. Wm. Evaiits.
" In all these years this University has done a grand work. Its
beneficent influence has spread all over the South. It deserves
the sympathy and help of all patriotic and philanthropic people."
Bishop W. F. Mallalieu.
" I take great pleasure in commending to the patriotic people of
our country the effort now being made to amply endow the Grant
University, located in Athens, Tenn. It is a cause worthy of the
lieartiest sympathy and the most liberal benefactions." — Right
Rev. Bishop Sam'l Fallows.
"Three reasons inspire me to aid what I can to endow this
institution of learning : The honored name it bears, which
appeals to all American patriots ; the important mission it is des-
tined to accomplish in behalf of Christian education ; and the
class of citizens it is certain to benefit in the South, whose intel-
lectual elevation will contribute largely to the permanent union
and prosperity of our country." — Dr. J. P. Newman.
"The movement which has resulted in the establishment of
Grant University I have observed from the first. It has been
well and wisely conducted." — Hon. John Eaton, Com. Education.
