HISTORY. 


Howard  College,  established  under  a  charter  granted  by 
the  General  Assembly  of  Alabama  m  1841,  has  had  an  event- 
ful, but  honorable,  career.  It  is  one  of  the  oldest  institutions 
of  learning  in  the  South.  Throughout  the  states  of  the 
South,  and  in  many  states  of  the  North,  its  influence  has  been 
felt  in  the  usefulness  of  its  graduates. 

Thrice,  in  its  history,  it  has  been  reduced  to  ashes,  but  each 
time  it  has  come  forth  stronger  than  before. 

Its  course  was  interrupted  by  the  years  of  the  war ;  but 
promptly  upon  the  cessation  of  hostilities,  with  the  vitality 
and  energy  which  have  attended  it  from  the  beginning  of  its 
career,  it  reopened  its  halls  of  learning  to  the  youth  of  the 
state.  It  was  the  first  institution  of  learning  of  high  grade 
in  Alabama  to  renew  its  exercises  after  the  close  of  the  w^ar. 
From  its  inception  in  1841,  to  1887,  the  college  was  located  in 
Marion.  At  the  session  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  held 
in  Union  Springs  in  July,  1887,  it  was  resolved  to  remove  the 
college  from  Marion  to  such  a  point  as  might  be  selected  by 
a  prudential  committee  of  thirteen.  East  Lake  was  selected  be- 
cause of  the  superior  advantages  which  it  afforded,  and  the 
success  which  has  attended  the  College  from  the  opening  of 
its  first  session  in  its  present  location,  vindicates  the  wisdom 
of  those  who  selected  the  present  site. 

LOCATION. 

Howard  College  is  located  in  the  beautiful  suburban  town 
of  East  Lake,  six  miles  from  the  city  of  Birmingham. 

The  situation  supplies  every  condition  essential  to  health. 

The  College  is  located  at  the  base  of  the  famous  Red 
Mountain,  which  furnishes  a  picturesque  back  ground  to  the 
site,  while  the  fertile  Ruhama  Valley  is  spread  out  beneath. 


28 


Howard  Coluege. 


The  surface  of  the  region  is  undulating,  thus  aifording 
superior  natural  drainage. 

Large  springs  of  pure,  cool  water  abound,  and  wells  are 
obtained  everywhere  with  little  difficulty.  The  temperature 
in  warm  weather  is  moderated  by  constant  mountain  breezes. 
Because  of  the  cool  nights  in  midsummer,  East  Lake  has  be- 
come a  popular  residential  resort.  Throughout  the  year  the 
air  is  free  from  the  taint  of  local  disease. 

ACCESSIBILITY. 

No  point  in  the  South  enjoys  greater  railroad  advantages 
than  Birmingham.  It  is  the  meeting  point  of  such  important 
lines  as  the  Louisville  &  Nashville,  Alabama  Great  Southern, 
Kansas  City,  Memphis  &  Birmingham,  East  Tennessee,  Vir- 
ginia &  Georgia,  Georgia  Pacific,  and  the  Georgia  Central. 

Ready  access  from  the  city  to  the  College  is  afforded  by  a 
dummy  line,  on  which  trains  arrive  and  depart  from  Birming- 
ham at  intervals  of  thirty  minutes. 

Baggage  checked  by  students  to  Birmingham  is  transferred 
promptly  to  East  Lake  upon  the  presentation  of  the  check  to 
the  Quartermaster  at  the  College. 

MORAL  TRAINING. 

The  success  of  the  College  is,  in  large  measure,  due  to 
the  marked  attention  given  to  the  moral  and  social  culture  of 
the  students.  By  such  attention  the  institution  seeks  to  com- 
mend itself  to  the  favorable  consideration  of  the  public.  It  is 
insisted  (1)  that  the  student  shall  show  himself  to  be  a  gen- 
tleman, and  (2)  that  he  shall  show  himself  to  be  a  student. 
He  will  find  the  atmosphere  of  this  institution  uncongenial 
without  these  traits.  Special  effort  is  made  on  the  part  of 
every  member  of  the  Faculty  to  inculcate  correct  views  of  life 
and  duty.  The  idea  is  constantly  kept  before  the  student  that 
intellectual  power  is  of  small  worth  if  the  sentiments  and 
habits  be  corrupt.  Hence  more  than  usual  attention  is  given 
to  the  moral  development  of  the  students  of  this  institution. 
As  a  means  of  protection  against  evil  influences  it  is  a  regula- 
tion of  the  College  that,  whenever  it  shall  become  apparent 
from  any  cause,  that  it  is  to  the  interest  of  any  student,  or  of 
the  College,  that  he  shall  withdraw  from  the  institution,  his 


Howard   College.  29 

resignation  may  be  demanded  by  the  President.  To  retain 
such  a  student  is  an  imposition  upon  himself,  for  he  is  in- 
duced to  believe  that  he  is  doing  that  which  he  is  not ;  it  is  an 
imposition  upon  the  parent  or  guardian,  for  by  his  retention 
they  are  being  misled  as  to  his  conduct,  and  it  is  an  imposition 
upon  the  students  of  the  College,  for  his  influence  must  be 
damaging  and  demoralizing. 

The  authorities  of  the  College  are  largely  aided  in  the  ad- 
ministration of  a  moral  discipline  by  the  favorable  surround- 
ings of  the  institution. 

Religious  worship  is  regularly  observed  every  Sabbath  in 
the  Baptist,  Presbyterian  and  Methodist  churches,  which  are 
located  within  a  few  hundred  yards  of  the  College  buildings. 
By  special  statute,  the  disposition  of  ardent  spirits  is  prohib- 
ited within  a  radius  of  three  miles. 

INCIDENTAL    ADVANTAGES. 

By  reason  of  the  proximity  of  Howard  College  to  a  large 
city,  it  enjoys  immense  advantages  without  experiencing  the 
slightest  disadvantage. 

The  life  and  energy  characteristic  of  this  region  are  apt  to 
awaken  a  corresponding  spirit  in  the  young  men  who  attend 
upon  this  institution  of  learning.  This,  taken  in  connection 
with  the  public  lectures  and  libraries  of  a  large  city,  is  not 
without  vast  benefit  to  the  young  men  seeking  development. 
A  firm  but  kind  discipline  serves  to  restrain  students  from  the 
disadvantages  of  the  city. 

PERSONAL  ATTENTION  OF  THE  PROFESSORS. 

The  professors  devote  all  their  time  to  the  students,  giving 
instruction  in  the  class-room  during  the  day,  and  visiting 
dormitories  night  and  day.  Parents,  committing  their  sons 
fully  to  the  care  of  the  College  officers,  may  be  assured  that 
physical  comfort,  moral  influences,  and  intellectual  training 
will  be  provided. 

To  avoid  distracting  influences,  to  command  full  attention, 
and  to  facilitate  study,  young  men  are  required  to  board  and 
lodge  in  the  College,  unless  their  relatives  live  in  town,  or 
unless  the  President,  for  special  reasons,  allows  otherwise.

RELIGIOUS   CULTURE 

Prayers  are  held  every  morning  in  the  Chapel,  and  the 
Faculty  and  students  attend. 

Students  are  required  to  attend  the  churches  of  their 
choice  every  Sabbath  morning;  they  are  also  required  to 
attend  Sabbath-school,  provided  there  is  one  belonging  to  the

CADET   CORPS,   WITH    MESS   HALL   IN    REAR 

senting  to  the  President  a  written  request  to  that  effect  from 
their  parents  or  guardians.  In  no  instance  is  a  student  forced 
to  attend  other  than  a  Sabbath-school  of  his  own  or  his  parents 
selection. 

SPECIAL  CARE  FOR  YOUNG  BOYS. 
By  keeping  the  College  buildings  and  grounds  free  from 
moral  contaminations,  the  President  has  made  the  institution 
an  inviting  place  for  youths  under  ordinary  college  age. 
During  the  past  session  a  number  of  lads  were  placed  under 
his  care,  and  such  was  the  management  of  their  surroundings 
socially,  and  the  arrangements  for  companionship  in  their 
rooms,  that  he  was  encouraged  to  make  this  a  special  feature 
•of  the  College.     If  parental  and    guardian  endorsement    can

be  had  in  the  management  of  youths,  there  will  be  little 
difficulty  in  giving  wholesome  direction  to  their  minds  and 
characters.  There  will  be  no  lack  of  diligence  in  the  case  of 
this  class  of  students. 

OCCASIONAL  EXCURSIONS. 

Partly  for  recreation,  but  chiefly  because  of  the  advantage 
derived,  the  students  of  the  higher  classes  are  now  and  then 
taken  upon  an  excursion  to  attend  upon  some  important  oc- 
casion or  visit  some  noted  point.  The  railroad  facilities  of 
Birmingham  afford  immense  advantage  for  this  purpose. 
This  is  done,  however,  only  when  greatly  reduced  rates  can  be 
procured,  and  when  the  excursion  will  involve  but  slight  loss 
of  time  from  College  work.  This  is  regarded  as  one  of  the 
most  agreeable  as  well  as  one  of  the  most  profitable  means  of 
instruction  to  the  young, 

BED  ROOMS  FOR  SUMMER. 

Students  desiring  to  take  partial  courses  under  any  mem- 
ber, or  members,  of  the  Faculty  of  Howard  College  during 
the  summer  vacation  with  a  view  of  the  prosecution  -of  their 
studies  in  the  institution  will  be  furnished  a  room  free  during 
the  period  of  such  special  courses. 

SICKNESS. 

When  ill,  students  have  the  personal  attention  of  the 
President.  It  is  an  abiding  rule  in  the  institution  to  notify 
parents  and  guardians  of  the  sickness  of  students  and  to  ad- 
vise them,  from  time  to  time,  of  the  tendency  of  the  disease. 

MESS  HALL  ARRANGEMENTS. 

Great  care  is  exercised  in  the  selection  and  preparation  of 
food  for  the  students. 

BED  ROOMS. 

The  bed  rooms  of  the  students  have  been  furnished 
thoughout  with  the  most  improved  style  of  iron  bedsteads, 
such  as  are  usually  employed  in  hospitals  and  soldiers'  homes. 
On  each  of  these  is  placed  a  wire-woven  mattress,  which 
greatly  enhances  the  repose  of  the  tired  student.

SOCIETIES. 

There  are  in  connection  witli  the  College,  and  in  successful' 
operation,  two  literary  societies — the  Philomathic  and  the- 
I^ranklin.  These  societies,  provided  with  well-selected  libra- 
ries, are  regarded  as  valuable  aids  to  the  student  in  the  forma- 
tion of  a  literary  taste,  and  in  affording  opportunities  for  ex- 
ercise in  debate,  and  in  obtaining  a  knowledge  of  parliamen- 
tary rules. 

All  students  in  the  College  classes  are  required  to  join  and 
attend  one  of  these  societies,  or  to  recite  on  Saturdays  to  one 
of  the  professors. 

Secret  societies  are  not  allowed. 

At  the  annual  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  How- 
ard College  of  1881,  the  following  preamble  and  order  were 
passed  : 

Whereas,  The  iuflueuce  of  secret  college  societies  has  proved,  in 
the  general  experience  of  educational  institutions,  unfavorable  to  dis- 
cipline and  scholarship,  and,  therefore,  to  the  welfare  of  colleges  and 
to  the  best  interests  of  students;  it  is  hereby 

Ordered  hy  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Howard  College,  That  no  student 
in  this  institution,  who  may,  after  the  first  of  September,  1881,  become 
a  member  of  such  secret  society  or  fraternity,  shall  be  eligible  to  the 
offices  or  honors  of  Howard  College. 


This  order  is  rigidly  enforced.

t[eneral    Information    l\especting    tr)e    Gourse. 


ADMISSION. 

1.  Applicants  for  admission  must  furnish  evidence  of 
good  moral  character,  and  produce  certificates  of  honorable 
dismission  from  the  institution  of  which  they  were  previously 
members. 

2.  A  student  may  enter  at  any  time  and  be  assigned  to 
joroper  classes. 

3.  All  applicants  for  admission  are  assigned  to  such 
■classes  as  they  are  prepared  to  enter  in  the  schools  of  their 
choice. 

4.  Students  are  required  to  report  to  the  President  and 
.matriculate  within  twenty-four  hours  after  they  reach  the  city. 

TERMS  OF  ADMISSION    TO  COLLEGE. 

A  candidate  for  admission  to  any  class  must  undergo  such 
examination  as  will  satisfy  the  Faculty  that  his  attainments 
will  justify  such  admission.  Under  no  circumstances  will  a 
student  be  allowed  to  enter  any  class  in  the  College  course 
without  examination.  The  first  week  of  the  session  will  be 
devoted  to  the  examination  and  classification  of  students. 

SUB-COLLEGIATE   DEPARTMENT. 

Special  attention  is  given  to  students  who  apply  for  admis- 
sion into  the  College,  and  yet  who  are  not  ready  to  enter  the 
collegiate  department. 

In  order  that  a  proper  basis  may  be  laid  for  the  future 
courses  of  boys  and  young  men  contemplating  a  collegiate 
course  in  this  institution,  they  are  assigned  a  place  in  the 
sub-collegiate  department. 

It  is  expected  that  students  applying  for  admission  into 
this  department  shall  be  able  to  read,  write  and  spell  cor- 
rectly. 


34  Howard  Couuege. 

COURSE    OF  STUDY. 

Particular  attention  is  paid  to  English  Composition  and 
Declamation.  Students  may  select  such  other  studies  as  their 
parents  or  guardians  may  desire.  Every  one  is  required  to 
have  at  least  fifteen  recitations  a  week. 

The  time  required  to  complete  the  course  of  study  for  any 
degree  will  depend  upon  the  previous  preparation  and  future 
diligence  of  the  student. 

PLAN   OF   INSTRUCTION. 

Professors  and  teachers  are  occupied  as  many  hours  as  are 
necessary  to  examine  thoroughly  each  day  all  the  members  of 
every  class,  and  thus  allow  no  neglect  of  any  study. 

The  classes  are  divided  into  small  sections,  so  that  each 
student  may  receive  special  attention.  The  members  of  sec- 
tions are  arranged  according  to  merit  in  each  branch,  and  the 
students  are  kept  constantly  stimulated  to  obtain  and  pre- 
serve good  positions. 

The  progress  of  each  class  and  the  relative  merit  of  the 
members  are  recorded.  At  the  end  of  each  week  the  results 
are  reported  to  the  President  and  afterward  posted  on  the 
bulletin  board  for  encouragement  or  warning. 

GOVERNMENT. 

The  government  is  administered  by  the  President  and 
professors  in  accordance  with  the  regulations  adopted  by  the 
Board  of  Trustees.  A  copy  of  the  laws  is  kept  in  each 
student's  room. 

These  laws  inculcate  manly  virtue,  preserve  order,  require 
sobriety  and  morality,  protect  and  encourage  good  students, 
and  do  not  allow  the  persistently  idle  and  immoral  to  remain 
where  they  can  injure  others. 

The  personal  influence  of  the  President  and  Faculty  is 
exercised  to  encourage  the  young  men  in  the  discharge  of 
their  duties,  and  the  co-operation  of  parents  is  solicited,  as 
the  success  of  college  government  depends  greatly  upon  the 
support  which  is  given  from  home  to  the  administration  of 
discipline. 

Daily  reports  of  conduct,  and  weekly  reports  of  studies,  are 
made  to  the  President.     From  these,  semi-quarterly  reports 


Howard  College. 


35- 


are  made  to  parents  and  guardians.  The  reports  to  parents 
show  the  absolute  and  relative  standing  in  each  class  and 
other  facts  that  may  be  thought  of  interest. 

BUILDINGS. 

There  is  one  main  college  building  of  bnck  and  stone,  and 
four  brick  dormitories.  A  large  two-story  wooden  building 
with  thirty-two  rooms  has  also  been  built  for  dormitory  pur- 
poses. 

The  main  building  is  three  stories   high,  and   embraces 


DORMITORY    BUILDINGS,    LOOKING    NORTH. 

lecture  rooms,  offices,  laboratory,  society  halls  and  chapel.     It 
is  heated  througiiout  by  the  most  improved  methods. 

LIBRARIES. 

Each  of  the  two  literary  societies  has  a  good  library,  and 
the  College  has  one. 

Additions  are  constantly  being  made  to  all  of  these  libra- 
ries. Contributions  of  books  are  earnestly  solicited  from  the 
friends  of  the  College. 

CABINETS. 

The  Geological  and  Mineralogical  Cabinets  contain  a  large 
variety  of  specimens.  A  handsome  series  of  Maps  and  Charts 
and  Engravings  illustrate  lectures  on  Geology,  Physiology  and 
Astronomy.

APPARATUS 

The  Institute  is  in  possession  of  a  good  Cliemical,  Mathe- 
matical and  Philosophical  apparatus. 

THE    SCHOLASTIC  YEAR. 

Is  divided  into  two  terms.  The  first  begins  Septeml)er  12th 
and  ends  January  ylst.  The  second  begins  February  1st  and 
ends  the  first  Wednesday  in  June. 

EXPENSES,  PAYABLE    SEPTEMBER  12th    AND    FEBRUARY   1ST, 
STRICTLY    IN    ADVANCE. 

COLLEGIATE. 

Tuition,  per  term 130  00 

Board 66  38 

SUB-COLLEGIATE. 

Tuition,  per  term 124  00 

Board ! .  .   66  38 

Board  includes  fuel,  furnished  room,  and  the  laundry  of 
the  sheets  and  pillow  cases. 

Every  student  is  required  to  bring  a  pair  each  of  blankets 
or  comforts,  sheets  and  pillow  cases.  They  should  have  his 
name  well  sewed  into  them.  When  he  retires  from  the  Col- 
lege he  may  remove  them  as  a  portion  of  his  baggage. 

PAYMENT   OF   DUES.    • 

Prompt  payment  must  be  made  by  each  student  at  the  be- 
ginning of  each  term,  or  else  satisfactory  arrangements  must  be 
made  with  the  President  with  a  bankable  note. 

Remittance  by  registered  letter,  postoffice  order  or  New 
York  exchange  should  be  made  to  Prof.  R.  J.  Waldrop,  Treas- 
urer, East  Lake,  Ala. 

MEDICAL   FEE 

Observation  has  taught  us  that  every  student  needs  some 
medical  attention  during  the  session,  while  some  need  a  great 
-deal.  In  order  to  economize  in  the  matter  of  medical  fees,  a 
College  physician  has  been  elected  by  the  Board  of  Trustees 
•to  that  position. 

His  services  will  be  given  any  student  the  entire  year  for 
the  payment  to  the  treasurer  of  the  faculty  of  $2.-50  at  the 
beginning  of  each  term. 

Every  student  will  be  required  to  deposit  this  amount  as 


Howard  Col-lege.  -  37 


li  medical  fee  with  the  treasurer.     This  does  not  apply  to  such 
students  as  attend  from  home  unless  they  should  desire  it. 

MONEV  REFUNDED. 

When  a  student  leaves  the  College  before  the  close  of  the 
term,  board,  room  rent,  etc.,  are  refunded  ;  but  no  tuition  or 
medical  fees. 

TO  PARENTS  AND.GUARDIANS. 

Except  for  books  and  lights  there  is  no  necesity  of  the 
student  being  furnished  more  money  than  is  advertised  in  the 
catalogue,  and  paients  are  advised  to  limit  the  amount  of 
pocket  change  allowed  their  sons,  and  not  to  permit  them  to 
make  private  accounts. 

When  requested  to  do  so,  the  President  or  Treasurer  will 
act  as  fiscal  guardian  of  students,  granting  only  such  sums  to 
the  student  as  may,  from  time  to  time,  be  needed.  Nothing 
contributes  more  to  the  demorilization  of  the  young  man  at 
college  than  a  well-filled  purse  for  private  use.  No  student 
will  be  allowed  to  keep  in  his  roorn^  during  any  nighty  a  sttm 
exceeding  $3.00. 

Not  infrequently  complaint  is  made  because  of  the  extrava- 
gance of  a  student  at  College,  as  if  the  institution  were  re- 
sponsible for  the  amounts  sent  from  time  to  time  by  parents 
or  guardians.  The  actual  College  expenses  are  stated  in  the 
catalogue,  and  if  parents  or  guardians  are  lavish  in  their  gifts 
of  money  to  their  sons  or  wards,  they  should  not  hold  the 
College  responsible.  By  mutual  intercourse  and  co-operation 
between  the  home  and  the  College,  the  student  will  bs  saved 
from  the  demoralization  arising  from  a  useless  expenditure  of 
funds.  The  attention  of  parents  is  urgently  called  to  this 
matter. 

SONS  OF  MINISTERS 

The  sons  of  ministers  engaged  in  the  active  work  of  the 
ministry  pay  one-half  the  tuition  fee. 

MINISTERIAL  STUDENTS 

Students  who  comply  with  the  regulations  of  the  Minis- 
terial Board,  at  Montgomery,  are  furnished  $138  per  session 
.3 


88  Howard  College. 


to  assist  in  the  defrayment  of  their  expenses  for  board  at 
Howard  College.     Such  students  are  given  tuition  free. 

Other  ministerial  students,  who  may  desire  to  pay  their 
own  board,  will  be  furnished  tuition  free  upon  the  presenta- 
tion of  licenses  from  their  churches. 

Such  as  may  desire  to  enter  the  College  as  ministerial 
students  must  correspond  with  the  Secretary  of  the  Board, 
G.  W,  Ellis,  Montgomery,  Ala. 

The  aid  already  indicated  applies  only  to  ministerial 
students  from  Baptist  churches  in  Alabama.  They  should  not 
go  to  the  College  without  first  making  application  as  already 
directed. 

Ministerial  students,  however,  from  without  the  state  are 
furnished  tuition  free. 

CADET  CORPS. 

For  the  purpose  of  physical  education — erect,  graceful  and 
manly  carriage  of  the  body,  a  vigorous  and  healthy  constitu- 
tion ;  for  cultivating  politeness,  moral  courage,  respect  for  self, 
deference  to  others,  frankness,  perseverance,  industry,  and 
self-reliance  ;  and  for  giving  the  mind  the  power  of  cluse  and 
continued  attention, — all  students  over  fifteen  years  of  age 
are  required  to  join  the  Cadet  Corps,  which  is  drilled  not 
more  than  one  hour  a  day,  and  at  such  time  as  not  to  interfere 
with  studies. 

No  student  is  exempt  from  this  duty,  unless  it  be  by  the 
President  for  special  reasons. 

UNIFORMS  AND  OTHER  APPAREL. 

Students  should  bring  from  home  a  good  supply  of  under- 
wear. They  should  also  bring  each  a  good  overcoat,  a  pair  of 
rubber  shoes  and  an  umbrella.  No  student  will  be  permitted 
to  leave  the  campus  except  in  full  uniform. 

Uniforms  may  be  obtained  through  ageni;ies  which  will  be 
found  existing  in  the  College.  The  cost  of  a  complete  uniform 
need  not  exceed  118.50.  The  suits  are  warranted  to  be  of  the 
best  cloth  manufactured,  and  are  quite  durable.  It  will  be 
found  that  these  goods  will  not  prove  more  expensive  than 
civilian  suits.

HOLIDAYS. 

A  vacation  during  Christmas  holidays  is,  in  large  measure, 
made  dependent  upon  the  conduct  of  the  students.  If,  by 
reason  of  good  behavior  and  diligence  in  work,  they  are  re- 
garded as  deserving  a  brief  respite,  it  is  given.

Courses  of  Study. 


I. — School  of  English. 

Pkofs.  Giles  and  Riley. 

Great  attention  is  given  to  the  study  of  our  mother  tongue. 
In  the  Sub- Collegiate  Department  the  basis  is  laid  in  the  study 
of  elements  of  English  Grammar.  With  such  a  knowledge 
obtained,  the  student  is  next  made  acquainted  with  the  Sci- 
ence of  Grammar. 

After  a  review  of  the  fundamental  principles  of  grammar, 
he  is  required  to  criticize  and  analyze  selections  from  various 
authors.  In  this  analysis  the  principal  proposition  is  stated, 
and  the  relation  which  the  subordinate  elements  bear  to  it  and 
to  each  other. 

The  course  in  word-building  includes  a  study  of  primitive 
words,  prefixes,  suffixes  and  the  formation  of  derivative 
words. 

The  student  is  given  the  root  or  primitive  word,  and  is  re- 
quired to  form  as  many  derivative  words  as  possible  by  using 
the  prefixes  and  suffixes; 

This  prepares  him  for  passage  from  the  Freshman  to  the 
Sophomore  class,  where  he  enters  upon  the  study  of  Rhetoric. 
Special  effort  is  made  at  this  stage  to  beget  in  the  student  an 
acute  discrimniation  in  the  study  of  language.  Creation  of 
thought  and  its  expression  in  pure  diction  are  made  objects 
of  special  endeavor.  Attention  is  repatedly  called  to  popular 
inaccuracies  in  speech,  and  the  critical  taste  of  each  student 
is  sought  to  be  cultivated.  Original  essays  and  orations  are 
prepared  by  the  student  and  subjected  to  the  criticism  of  the 
class.     Reading  exercises  from  standard  authors  are  also  had. 

That  the  student  may  be  able  to  express  himself  in  the 
most  forcible  manner  possible,  he  is  trained  in  both  the  analytic 
iind  synthetic  methods  of  arrangement. 


Howard  College.  41 


The  latter  part  of  the  session  of  the  Sophomore  course  in 
English  is  devoted  to  elocutionary  exercises. 

The  text  books  used  in  the  course  already  indicated  are  : 
Swinton's  English  Grammar  and  Composition,  Town's  Word 
Building,  Welsh's  Essentials  of  English,  and  Hill's  Rhetoric. 

From  the  study  of  Rhetoric  in  the  Sophomore  class,  the 
student  passes  to  that  of  Logic  in  the  Junior  class.  Jevon's 
Logic  is  the  text  book  that  is  used  in  this  course.  The  course 
pursued  is  intended  to  be  practical  throughout. 

After  studying  the  methods  or  reasoning,  both  deductive 
and  inductive,  the  pupils  are  given  various  propotitions  to 
put  into  the  different  forms  of  syllogisms.  In  order  to  create 
enthusiasm  in  the  class-room,  and  to  make  the  study  of  prac- 
tical value,  numerous  correct  and  incorrect  syllogisms  are 
examined. 

SECOND  TERM. 
Text-hook — Wayland's  Political  Economy. 
.     In  this  course  a  free  discussion  of  the  subject  under  con- 
sideration is  encouraged   by  the  professor.     When  the  pupil 
differs  fram  the  text  he  is  allowed  to  give  his  reasons  for  not 
accepting  the  author's  views 

The  first  part  of  the  Senior  course  is  devoted  to  a  study  of 
the  History  of  English  Literature,  in  which  the  development 
of  the  language,  from  the  beginning,  is  carefully  noted. 


II.— Latin. 

Profs.  Dill  and  Giles. 
The  subjects  taught  are  the  Latin  language  and  literature. 
The  studies  of  the  department  comprehend  a  course  of  four 
years,  divided  as  follows : 

PREPARATORY  CLASS. 

Text-hook — Collar  and  Daniell's  Beginner's  Latin. 

The  student  is  thoroughly  drilled  in  the  inflections  of  the 
parts  of  speech. 

The  translation  of  Latin  into  English,  and  English  into 
Latin,  is  begun  at  once. 

The  first  is  recited  orally,  the  latter  is  written. 

Special  attention  is  given  to  syntax  and  position. 


42  Howard  College. 

FRESHMAN    CLASS. 

Text-hooks  —  Caesar's  Gallic  War  and  Cicero's  Orations 
against  Cataline. 

In  connection  with  these,  Allen  &  Greenough's  Latin 
Grammar  and  Dr.  Dill's  Compendium  are  used. 

In  addition  to  the  translation  of  latin  into  English,  each 
word  is  written  on  the  blackboard,  the  place  where  found,  the 
rules  of  euphony,  the  rules  of  syntax,  and  a  thorough  analysis 
of  the  sentence  are  given. 

A  written  translation  of  an  English  exercise  into  Latin  is 
required  once  a  week. 

SOPHOMORE  CLASS. 

Text-hooks— W\^\V^  ^Eneid,  Horace,  Allen  &  Greenough's 
Latin  Grammar,  Dr.  Dill's  Compendium,  and  a  classical  dic- 
tionary. 

The  course  of  study  comprehends  the  following  topics  : 

First — Throughout  the  session  much  attention  is  paid  to 
the  analysis  of  the  inflections  of  declension  and  conjugation, 
the  seeming  exceptions  being  explained  by  the  rules  of  eu- 
phony. The  simple  sentence  is  also  analyzed  into  its  com- 
ponent elements — the  connective,  subject,  verb,  object  or 
complement,  and  adjunct,  with  their  several  modifiers.  The 
method  of  analysis  of  word  and  sentence  is  based  upon  the 
Compendium  of  Analytical  Etymology  and  Syntax  prepared 
by  Prof.  Dill. 

Second — During  the  first  term  the  class  is  drilled  in  the 
more  common  and  essential  rules  of  concord  and  government ; 
in  the  second  term  the  most  difficult  points  of  syntax  occur- 
ring in  the  text  are  indicated  by  the  professor,  and  the  student 
is  required  to  state  the  facts  involved  and  to  give  the  corre- 
sponding rule  in  the  grammar. 

Third — Versification  and  the  rules  of  quantity  are  studied 
throughout  the  session. 

Fourth — Mythology,  ancient  geography  and  ancient  his- 
tory are  required  in  reference  to  the  names  of  persons  and 
places  appearing  in  the  text  read. 

JUNIOR    CLASS. 
Text-books — Crowell's  Selections  from  Latin  Poets  and  the 
Agricola  of  Tacitus.     Books  of  reference  as  in  the  preceding 
course. 


Howard  College.  4d 

In  addition  to  the  constant  review  of  topics  previously 
tauglit,  the  following  new  subjects  are  taken  up : 

ii'irst — The  rules  of  word-building  are  applied  to  the  ex- 
planation of  derivatives  and  compounds  in  the  text  read. 
The  student  is  also  encouraged  by  prize  marks  to  apply  the 
principles  of  Latin  word-building  to  the  English  language,  in 
the  performance  of  work  prescribed  by  the  professor  in  addi- 
tion to  the  daily  recitations. 

^Seco7}d — The  subject  of  syntax  is  also  completed  by  the 
thorough,  exhaustive  analysis  of  compound  and  complex  sen- 
tences. The  sentence  as  a  whole  is  defined,  and  the  relation 
of  the  several  clauses  explained ;  and  each  clause  is  analyzed 
as  taught  in  the  previous  course. 


111.— Greek. 

Profs.  Dill  and  Giles. 

The  course  of  study  in  this  department  extends  through 
three  years,  and  is  divided  into  the  following  classes : 

FRESHMAN     CLASS. 

Text-books — Hadley  &  Allen's  Grammar  and  White's 
First  Lessons  in  Greek. 

After  six  weeks'  study  of  the  grammar,  the  reading  exer- 
cises begin.  In  this,  special  attention  is  given  to  accent,  pro- 
nunciation, euphony  and  syntax. 

A  written  exercise  of  English  into  Greek  is  required  each 
day. 

SOPHOMORE    CLASS. 

Text-books — Xenophon's  Anabasis,  Homer's  Iliad  and  Had- 
ley's  Greek  Grammar. 

In  connection  with  the  text  read  during  the  first  term,  the 
attention  is  confined  to  a  thorough  review  of  the  preparatory 
topics,  the  alphabet  and  rules  of  euphony,  and  the  analysis  of 
the  inflections  of  declension  and  conjugation ;  also,  the  rules 
for  accentuation. 

In  the  second  term  the  whole  grammar  is  required,  special 
attentiop  being  given  to  the  word-building  and  the  rules  of 


44  Howard  Coi-i-ege. 


quantity  ;  also,  to  dialectic  differences  in  connection  with  the 
rules  of  euphony.  The  study  of  comparative  philology  is  also 
introduced  in  the  tracing  out,  in  Latin  and  English,  the  col- 
laterals of  the  Greek  root  occurring  in  the  text,  as  well  as  the 
derivation  of  English  words  directly  from  the  Greek  language. 

JUNIOR    CLASS. 

Text-hooks — Demosthenes  de  Corona,  the  New  Testament 
and  Hadley's  Greek  Grammar. 

During  the  year,  the  specialty  is  the  accurate  translation 
of  Greek  into  English.  This  subject  is  illustrated,  especially, 
in  the  reasons  for  the  changes  made  in  the  Revised  Version  of 
the  New  Testament. 


IV. — Modern  Languages. 

For  the  present,  the  duties  of  this  Chair  are  divitletl  between  Profs.  Dill  and  Macon.] 

FRENCH. 

This  course  is  limited  to  one  year,  and  its  purpose  is  to 
open  to  the  student  the  literature  of  the  language. 

Text -books  —  Fasquelle's  French  Course  and  Choix  de 
Contes  Contemporains. 

Oral  translations  of  French  into  English,  with  special 
reference  to  the  attainment  of  a  correct  pronunciation,  and 
written  translations  of  EngHsh  into  French  are  continued 
throughout  the  course.  Special  attention  is  given  to  the 
study  of  verbs,  regular  and  irregular. 

GERMAN. 

This  language  is  studied  only  in  the  junior  year  (five  reci- 
tations per  week).  The  objects  of  this  brief  course  are  to 
give  the  student  a  fair  facility  in  speaking  and  reading  the 
language.  This  is  accomplished  by  daily  conversation  and 
reading.  Frequent  and  correct  use  of  words  in  conversation, 
and  daily  readings  from  texts  suited  to  the  progress  of  the 
students,  secure  very  satisfactory  results,  even  in  a  single 
session. 

Joynes-Meissner  Grammar  is  now  used. 


Howard  Coi-I-ege.

V. — Mathematics. 

Pkofs.  Smith,  Waldkop  and  Payne. 

The  Sub-Freshman  Class  begins  with  Sensenig's  Algebra 
and  pursues  this  work  through  Quadratic  Equations.  Be- 
ginning at  this  point,  the  Freshman  Class  proper  prosecutes 
the  study  of  Sensenig's  Algebra  to  its  close  and  enters  upon 
Plane  Geometry. 

The  Sophomore  Class  completes  Geometry — Plane,  Solid 
and  Spherical — and  enters  fairly  upon  the  study  of  Trigonom- 
etry. At  this  point  the  Junior  Class  begins,  completing  Plane 
and  Spherical  Trigonometry,  Surveying  and  Analytical  Geom- 
etry.    The  Senior  Class  completes  Physics  and  Astronomy. 


VI. — Physical  Sciences. 

Pkof.  Macon. 

Chemistry. — All  students  must  take  this  school  through- 
out their  junior  year.  It  embraces:  1.  Phenomenal  Chem- 
istry ;  and,  2.  Qualitative  Analysis. 

1.  Phenomenal  Chemistry  (five  hours  per  week  during 
first  term)  is  an  introductory  course  of  instruction,  consisting 
in  experimental  demonstrations  of  the  facts  of  the  science; 
calculations  of  quantities  by  weight  and  volume ;  of  changes 
in  the  volume  of  gases  by  changes  of  temperature  and  press- 
ure ;  writing  of  reactions,  and  establishing  of  formulas  upon 
proper  physical  facts,  accompanying  the  work. 

2.  Qualitative  Analysis  (five  hours  per  week  during  second 
term). — In  this  course  the  student,  having  first  observed  the 
characteristic  reactions  of  the  most  important  basic  and  acid 
radicals,  has  practiced  in  deducing  methods  of  analysis  based 
upon  his  own  observations ;  after  which,  simple  and  mixed 
salts,  minerals,  alloys,  etc.,  are  analyzed. 

It,  is  believed  that  organic  and  physiological  chemistry  and 
quantitative  analysis  will,  at  an  early  day,  be  added  to  this 
school,  and  that  ample  laboratory  supplies  will  be  furnished 
for  an  adequate  course  in  these  departments  of  the  science.

BIOLOGY. 

Students  of  Biology  recite  five  times  per  week  throughout 
the  senior  year.  In  all  the  departments  of  this  science  the 
texts  are  supplemented  by  lectures,  objects  and  charts,  which 
aid  much  in  giving  a  wide  general  knowledge  of  the  subjects. 

Texts — Zoology,  Packard ;  Physiology,  Huxley  and  You- 
man. 

GEOLOGY. 

Text — (LeConte)  Lectures  and  cabinet  specimens  are  used 
in  teaching  this  science.  It  is  hoped  that  the  friends  of  this 
institution  will  forward  specimens  of  the  minerals  of  their 
vicinity.  By  means  of  a  full  cabinet  of  Alabama  minerals,  the 
geology  of  the  State  can  be  thoroughly  taught. 


VII. — Commercial  School. 

Prof.  Payne. 

The  creation  of  this  department  is  in  response  to  a  demon- 
stration on  the  part  of  young  men  to  acquire  the  ability  of 
book-keeping  while  prosecuting  a  literary  course. 

During  the  first  term  the  student  is  given,  in  the  outset, 
the  simple  processes  of  single  entry,  in  which  the  forms  and 
uses  of  personal  accounts  are  clearly  exhibited.  The  founda- 
tion principles  of  the  science  are  thus  illustrated.  Care  is 
taken  to  point  out  all  the  characteristics  of  the  ledger  and  the 
utility  of  auxiliary  books. 

Throughout  the  first  term  models  are  given,  which  are  suc- 
ceeded by  exercises  fully  elaborated,  in  which  the  material 
only  is  given,  in  the  shape  of  memorandum  transactions,  from 
which  the  student  is  required  to  write  up,  circumstantially,  all 
the  required  books  of  entry.  A  similar  process  is  adopted  in 
double  entry. 

During  the  second  term  the  commercial  course  is  com- 
pleted—  that  is  to  say,  the  student  is  rendered  perfectly 
famihar  with  all  business  forms. 

The  latest  works  are  used,  making  Bryant  &  Stratton's 
Common  School  and  Complete  Works  the  basis. 


Howard  Coi.i.ege.  47 


VIII. — Psychology  and  Moral  Philosophy. 

Pkof.  Riley. 

This  course  is  restricted  to  the  senior  year.  The  latest 
text-books,  coupled  with  practical  lectures,  are  employed  in 
the  aim  to  develop  the  nature  of  the  soul  and  of  the  intellect- 
ual constitution.  While  ample  time  is  afforded  for  the  study 
of  all  subordinate  questions,  such  matters  as  the  Will  and  the 
Emotions  receive  particular  attention. 

Under  the  guide  of  the  latest  works,  the  effort  is  made  to 
show  the  harmony  subsisting  between  the  most  recent  results 
of  science  with  the  so-called  old  Psychology.  In  other  words, 
particular  attention  is  devoted  to  physiological-psychology. 

The  fallacies  of  materialism  and  cerebralism  are  indicated 
throughout  the  course. 

The  study  of  Psychology  readily  prepares  for  that  of  the 
principles  and  practices  of  morality,  the  whole  of  which  cul- 
minates with  an  investigation  of  the  claims  of  the  evidences 
of  Christianity. 

Text-books — Davis'  Psychology,  Robinson's  Principles  and 
Practices  of  Morality,  and  Fisher's  Manual  of  Christian  Evi- 
dences. 


Commencement  and  Degrees. 

The  annual  commencement  is  held  on  the  first  Wednesday 
in  June. 

No  student  is  admitted  to  a  degree,  or  permitted  to  take 
any  part  in  the  commencement  exercises,  unless  he  has  credit- 
ably sustained  all  his  examinations,  performed  such  other  exer- 
cises as  may  have  been  assigned  him,  and  settled  all  college 
dues,  including  a  graduation  fee  of  five  dollars.
