GENERAL STATEMENT

THE sixth Summer Session of Lebanon Valley College will be
conducted both in Annville and in Harrisburg. Exercises in
each subject will be held five times a week, from June 21
to July 31, inclusive. All courses, except for some of the work in
science, will be held in the morning.

One Summer School will be held as usual on the campus at
Annville, where the full college equipment will be placed at the
disposal of summer students.

A Summer School will also be conducted at Harrisburg for the
convenience of teachers in this vicinity who wish to complete, by
means of summer courses, the residence requirements towards their
degrees. For this purpose the Edison Junior High School has been
made available by the kindness of the Harrisburg School District.

REGISTRATION

In order that the work may proceed with dispatch upon the open-
ing of the term, it is urged that arrangements for registration be
made by mail. Applications for admission and registration will be

Address, Annville, Pa.

No registrations will be made and no changes in courses per-
mitted after June 24.

CREDITS

Certificates will be issued to all students showing the courses at-
tended, grades and number of semester hours' credit. Courses taken
during the Summer Session are credited towards the college degrees
on the same basis as courses taken during the regular college year.
Beginning with June, 1927, one hundred twenty-six semester hours
will be required for the bachelor's degrees. Twenty-seven
semester hours are required for the master's degree. The require-
ment of one year's residence for a collegiate degree may be met by

information concerning the requirements for degrees the candidate
should refer to the college catalogue or address the Registrar.

EXPENSES

A registration fee of $1 will be charged each student.
The tuition fee is $6.00 per semester hour credit.
A laboratory fee is charged for Science Courses.

SUMMER SCHOOL BULLETIN 7

The charge for board and room is $9 per week, $54 per term.

The entire charge for registration, tuition, board and room for
the term is therefore $67-$91.

The fees are payable at the time of registration, as a condition

COURSES LEADING TO THE BACCALAUREATE

DEGREES

An effort is being made by the College to offer in the Summer-
Session and the Extension Department all the General Requirements
for the Baccalaureate degree. Most of these courses are announced
for the present year, and the remainder will be made available at
an early date. In courses where six semester hours are required,
the departments will normally offer two hours in Summer School
and four hours in a Supplementary Extension Course. The
residence requirement of one year may be met by attendance at
Summer School. In this way the Baccalaureate degree will be
made available to those who are not able to attend the regular
annual College sessions.

For the convenience of those working towards a degree, a full
statement of the requirements is printed below:

SUMMER SCHOOL BULLETIN 9

ARRANGEMENTS OF COURSES OF STUDY

cation (B.S. in Ed.)

ment for a Major in the following departments: Bible and New
Testament Greek, English, French, German, Greek, History, Latin,

ments for a Major in the following departments: Biology, Chem-
istry, Mathematics (Science option), Physics.

to advanced standing, by virtue of work done in other institutions,
should lose no time in having their credits evaluated by the Registrar,
in order that they may be informed as to what requirements they
must still meet for graduation.

Some of the courses offered in the Extension Department may
be taken for credit towards a Master's degree, provided arrangements
are made in advance with the instructor. Some extra work will be
required, such as additional reading, reports, experiments, etc. The
complete regulations governing graduate work for the degrees of
A.M. and M.S. may be obtained upon application to the Registrar
of the College.

APPOINTMENT BUREAU

In order to give students the benefit of calls that are received for
teachers and to render greater assistance in finding employment,

12 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE

the College provides for an Appointment Bureau to keep on file
records of students with their credentials for those who desire it.
For registration with the bureau a fee of one dollar is charged.

The Appointment Bureau of the College co-operates with the
Placement Service, Teachers' Bureau, of the Department of Public
Instruction, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, thus offering additional fa-
cilities for the placement of graduates of this institution.

Bachelor of Science in Education. Lebanon Valley College grants
the degree Bachelor of Science in Education. Normal school credits
from recognized institutions will be allowed towards this degree on
the following basis: work of a professional character will be equated
on the basis of semester hours. Graduates, who have taken the
full two years' normal course based upon four full years of high
school work, usually receive approximately 60 semester hours,
though each case is evaluated individually for credit towards the
degree Bachelor of Science in Education. A total of 126 hours of
credit is required for the degree. For full information, address the
Department of Education, Lebanon Valley College.

STATE TEACHERS' CERTIFICATES

The State Council of Education has made provision for two kinds
of certificates for elementary school teachers, viz.: partial and stand-
ard certificates. The first consists of two kinds — elementary and
secondary. Standard certificates are also of two kinds— temporary
and. permanent.

For high school teachers there are likewise two kinds of certifi-
cates, viz: provisional and permanent. The first may be secured
after graduation from an approved college or university and having
successfully completed at least eighteen semester hours of work
of college grade in education and psychology.

Full particulars relative to the several certificates may be secured
by addressing the Placement Service, Teachers' Bureau, of the.
Department of Public Instruction, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania or the

COURSE FOR ATHLETIC COACHES

If enough men are interested to warrant it, Coach E. E. Mylin,
of Lebanon Valley College, will be available to give the course listed
below at our Summer School. The course is designed to instruct
men who desire expert and practical knowledge of the best methods
of coaching the most popular sports. Many men realize that they
require more knowledge of certain fields of coaching. Many men
enter coaching as an after-thought after training to become teachers,
lawyers, business men and so on. Unless they were all-round ath-
letes their athletic knowledge chiefly related to one sport and even
in that their training was often limited. Perhaps the football coach
was a half back and knew the technique of that position but paid no
attention to the play of the linemen and ends. Again, men who
have played one- sport are often called upon to coach another in
which they have had no experience or training and they realize the
need of specialized training.

22 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE

This course is planned primarily for those who are coaching or
those who intend to teach and coach. For further particulars write
to E. E. Mylin, Lebanon Valley College, Annville, Pa.
