COURSES    OF   INSTRUCTION.

I.— Courses  of  Instruction. 


Thorough  Instruction  will  be  afforded  in  the  follow- 
ing Courses  of  Study  : 

1.  A  Model  School  or  Preparatory  Course,  which  will 
embrace  instruction  in  Orthography,  Reading,  Geography,  Penman- 
ship, Oral  and  Written  Arithmetic,  Drawing,  Vocal  Music,  Classical 
and  Physical  Geography,  Elementary  Algebra  and  the  Elements 
of  Latin. 

In  this  department,  the  rudimentary  facts  of  Physical  Science 
will  be  taught  by  Object  Lessons  or  the  Development  System, 
which  embraces  "  such  a  course  of  training  for  the  young  that  all 
the  faculties  shall  receive  exercise  of  such  an  amount,  kind,  and 
quality  as  shall  best  conduce  to  the  harmonious  and  complete  de- 
velopment of  the  whole  individual." 

2.  A  Normal  Course,  which  includes  instruction  in  all  the 
branches  required  by  law  to  be  taught  in  the  Common  Schools  of 
the  State,  with  a  few  other  studies  suited  to  develop  those  powers 
of  mind  essential  to  make  efficiant  teachers.  Besides,  the  Normal 
Class  will  have  an  opportunity  of  observing  the  operation  of  the 
Model  School,  and  the  Senior  Division  will  have  the  privilege  of 
attending  some  of  the  Lectures  of  the  Professors  of  the  College. 

3.  The  College  Courses,  which  embrace  all  the  branches  of  a 
liberal  education  and  are  adapted  to  suit  special  cases. 

CI.  The  Classical  Course  is  similar  to  that  pursued  in  other  Col- 
leges, and  is  that  which  experience  has  proved  to  be  best  adapted 
to  develop  the  mental  powers  and  cultivate  and  refine  the  taste.  A 
student's  grade  and  advancement  will  be  determined  more  by  the 
quality  than  by  the  quantity  of  his  performances. 

h-  The  Biblical  Course  presents  what  we  think  will  supply  a 
long-felt  want.     It  is,  what  its  name  implies,  a  course  in  which  the 


22  COURSES    OF    INSTRUCTION. 


Word  of  God  will  be  specifically  and  thoroughly  studied.  Believing 
as  we  do,  that  a  knowledge  of  revealed  truth  is  of  great  importance 
to  man  in  every  relation  in  life,  and  that  the  design  of  a  classical 
education  can  be  accomplished  nearly  as  well  by  the  study  of  the 
Scriptures  in  the  languages  in  which  they  were  written  as  by  the 
study  of  classic  Greek  or  Latin ;  we  have  substituted  for  the  classics 
and  some  of  the  higher  mathematics,  the  Original  Scriptures  and 
sach  other  studies  as  will  enable  students  to  comprehend  fully  and 
clearly  the  solemn  truths  contained  in  the  Word  of  God.  For  en- 
trance upon  this  course  no  special  qualifications  are  required,  and 
graduating  in  it  will  confer  no  special  right  upon  any  one,  as  the 
road  to  the  Christian  Ministry  lies  through  the  Class  and  the  Quar- 
terly and  Annual  Conferences.  While  "  God  sends  by  whom  he 
will  send,"  and  the  weak  things  of  God  are  often  chosen  to  con- 
found the  wisdom  of  man,  yet  a  thorough  biblical  training  enabled 
Paul  to  defend  the  truth  before  kings  and  princes  and  to  raise  the 
Gospel  standard  amid  such  centers  of  refinement  and  learning  as 
Athens,  Corinth,  Ephesus  and  Rome.  Without  attempting  the 
specific  education  of  the  Theological  Seminary,  by  the  Divine  bless- 
ing, we  hope  to  educate  hundreds,  whom  God  will  call  and  send 
forth  to  preach  "  the  unsearchable  riches  of  Christ." 

C.  The  Ladies'  Course  is  thorough,  and  embraces  a  wide  range 
of  study,  including  music,  drawing,  painting,  &c. 

cl.  The  Scientific  Course  is  intended  to  afford  a  general  culture 
to  such  as  do  not  desire  to  pursue  the  Classics  and  prefer  to  study 
the  French  and  German  Languages  and  Literature.  It  includes 
all  the  Mathematics,  Philosophy,  &c,  of  the  Classical  Course,  with 
two  or  three  additional  studies.  For  graduation  in  this  course,  an 
equivalent  amount  of  Latin  or  Greek  will  be  accepted  in  lieu  of 
German  or  French. 

CorciiTiercial  Course. 

4.  For  such  students  as  have  completed  their  curriculum  of  study, 
or  such  as  wish  to  obtain  a  knowledge  of  the  rules  and  forms  of 
business  while  pursuing  other  branches,  a  thorough  Commercial 
Course  is  provided  at  a  moderate  cost.  In  this  Course,  Classes 
will  be  formed  at  the  beginning  of  each  term,  which  will  be 
thoroughly  drilled  by  daily  recitations  from  test  books,  oral  in- 
structions, and  practice  in  writing  up  books. 


REQUIREMENTS    FOR   ADMISSION,    ETC. 


23 


II.-- Requirements  for  Admission. 

Applicants  for  admission  into  the  Model  School  or  Normal  De- 
partment will  be  examined  and  will  be  classified  according  to  their 
qualifications. 

All  candidates  for  admission  to  any  course  must  be  of  suitable 
age,  and  must  present  satisfactory  evidence  of  good  moral  character. 

Candidates  for  advanced  standing  must  pass  a  satisfactory  ex- 
amination upon  the  studies  pursued  by  the  class  which  they  pro- 
pose entering,  or  in  their  equivalents. 

The  qualifications  necessary  for  admission  to  any  of  the  College 
Classes,  is  a  satisfactory  knowledge  of  the  branches  taught  in  the 
Model  School,  except  that  a  knowledge  of  Latin  Grammar  will  not 
be  required  for  entrance  upon  the  Biblical  or  Scientific  Course. 

Entering  Lebanon  Valley  College  as  a  student  will  be  regarded 
as  a  pledge  to  observe  all  its  Laws  and  Regulations. 

Candidates  properly  prepared  in  some  studies  for  admission  to  a 
higher  class,  but  deficient  in  others,  will  be  required  to  make  up 
their  requisitions  by  regular  recitations  in  the  lower  classes.  We 
deem  this  requirement  essential  to  the  success  of  students  in  the 
higher  departments  of  study. 


III.— The  Best  Mode  of  Preparation. 

The  success  of  a  student  in  the  higher  classes  depends  much 
upon  the  thoroughness  of  his  preparation.  Many  young  men,  of 
limited  means,  attempt  to  prepare  themselves  for  the  higher  classes 
by  private  study.  Although  praiseworthy,  this  is  a  radical  mis- 
take, as  thorough  instruction  is  more  needed  in  the  elementary 
than  in  the  higher  studies,  and  the  facilities  provided  here  will 
enable  students  to  accomplish  more  with  an  ultimate  economy  of 
time  and  money.  The  drill  of  the  first  two  or  three  years  of  the 
Course  is  all-important,  and  students  should,  by  all  means,  spend 
these  years  in  College.  Such,  however,  as  find  it  convenient  to 
prepare  themselves  for  higher  Classes,  we  would  advise  to  follow 
closely  the  plan  of  study  laid  down  iu  this  Catalogue,  and  not  anti- 
cipate studies  which  may  be  pursued  with  more  advantage  at 
College.

GENERAL   REMARKS. 


29 


VI.— General  Remarks. 


1. — Lebanon  Valley  College. 

This  Institution  is  the  property  of  the  East  Pennsylvania  Con- 
ference of  the  Church  of  the  United  Brethren  in  Christ,  and  is 
under  their  patronage  and  supervision.  It  was  opened  on  the  7th 
of  May,  1866,  and  chartered  with  ample  powers  in  April,  1867. 

The  last  Conference  authorized  the  purchase  of  additional 
grounds,  and  the  erection  of  new  buildings.  The  site  is  secured, 
and  the  buildings  are  now  in  course  of  erection,  a  part  of  which, 
it  is  hoped,  will  be  ready  for  occupancy  at  some  time  during  the 
Fall  Term. 

2. — Location. 

The  seat  of  the  College  is  at  Annville,  a  beautiful  rural  village 
of  over  one  thousand  inhabitants,  situate  in  the  rich  and  fertile 
Lebanon  Valley,  twenty-one  miles  east  of  Harrisburg,  aud  thirty- 
three  miles  west  of  Heading,  on  the  Lebanon  Valley  Railroad,  by 
which  connection  is  made  six  times  daily  with  New  York.  Phila- 
delphia, Pittsburg  and  Baltimore.  The  village  is  noted  for  its 
healthfulness  and  the  beauty  of  its  scenery,  and  is  free  from  the 
temptations  to  vice  so  common  in  large  towns  and  cities. 

3. — Instruction. 
We  hold  that  education,  to  be  effective,  must  be  thorough  and 
practical.  Hence  we  shall  teach  principles  rather  than  rules, 
and  ideas  rather  than  words.  To  do  this  effectively,  it  will  be 
necessary  to  commence  with  the  elements  of  literature  and  science. 
While  it  might  be  more  pleasant  to  teach  the  higher  branches  only, 
such  a  course  would  not  meet  a  great  public  want.  Most,  if  not 
all,  the  students  who  usually  atteud  an  institution  of  this  kind,  are 
imperfect  in  the  common  branches,  and  as  no  proper  progress 
can  be  made  in  higher  studies  without  a  knowledge  of  those 
more  elemental,  we  shall  give  all  our  students  a  most  thorough 
drill  in  common  English.  We  aim  to  educate  the  whole  man ;  to 
develop  his  physical,  moral  aud  intellectual  powers.  Educatiou 
should  commence  with  the  perceptive  faculties.  "  All  human 
knowledge  begins  in  experience.  Except  phenomena  are  given  in 
the  sense,  aud  the  intellect  quickened  into  activity  in  perception, 
it  can  exert  neither  the  faculty  of  the  understanding  nor  the 
reason,  but  the  human  mind  remains  a  void,  and  no   cognition  is 


30 


GENERAL   REMARKS. 


possible.  We  must  begin  our  intellectual  action  in  sensation." 
Heuce  the  necessity  for  accurate  training  and  abundant  illustration 
and  exercise,  for  the  neglect  of  these  is  the  bane  of  all  sound 
learning.  Upon  such  a  beginning  as  a  foundation,  we  propose 
erecting  an  educational  structure  symmetrical  in  its  proportions, 
and  towering  to  the  regions  of  pure  thought  and  holy  aspiration. 

4. — The  Essentials  of  Education. 

Among  the  faculties  distinguishing  man  from  the  animal  crea- 
tion, arc  speecli,  reason,  taste,  imagination  and  conscience,  and  just 
in  proportion  as  these  are  developed  and  cultivated,  does  he  rise 
in  the  scale  of  being.  A  high  culture  can  be  secured  only  by  a 
proper  training  in  the  branches  which  constitute  a  liberal  education. 


5. — The  Necessity  for  General  Education. 

Some  think  that  the  few  only  need  to  be  well  educated.  This  is 
an  error.  Men  of  education  are  wanted  in  the  counting-room,  in 
the  workshop  and  at  the  plow,  as  well  as  in  the  pulpit;  on  the  ros- 
trum and  at  the  bar.  In  a  country  like  ours,  where  the  very 
existence  of  the"  government  depends  upon  the  general  intelligence 
and  virtuous  principles  of  the  masses,  and  where  every  man  is 
eligible  to  the  highest  position,  how  necessary  that  all  should  be 
educated,  especially  since  the  chances  of  success  are  in  favor  of 
him  who  has  the  best  qualifications  ! 

The  men  most  successful  as  preachers,  lawvers,  or  legislators,  are 
not  the  profound  thinkers,  but  those  who  are  able  to  speak  well. 
Hence  the  necessity  for 

6. — A  Good  Elocution. 

As  language  is  one  of  man's  highest  endowments,  and  is  both 
spoken  and  written,  to  give  true  utterance  to  each  word,  and  master 
all  the  complex  forms  of  speech,  is  a  matter  of  fundamental  im- 
portance. To  attain  this  great  end,  our  course  in  Orthography, 
Reading,  Elocutiou,  Grammar,  Composition,  Rhetoric,  Literature 
and  Criticism  is  very  complete.  We  commence  with  the  lowest 
class  in  reading  to  teach  a  correct  expression,  and  by  a  thorough 
drill  in  the  elementary  sounds,  in  vocal  culture  and  systematic  elo- 
cution, with  private  and  public  declamation,  we  hope  to  make  fine 
readers  and  eloquent  speakers. 


ECLECTIC    STUDIE; 


-LESSEE-. 


31 


7. — Ability  to  Compose  Well 

Is  a  great  desideratum.  Correct  orthography  and  elegant  diction 
can  only  be  acquired  by  close  study  and  long  practice.  Daily  ex- 
ercise in  writing  words  correctly,  and  in  combining  them  into 
sentences  after  elegaDt  models,  with  an  analysis  of  all  the  forms  of 
language,  will  lay  the  foundation  for  a  chaste  and  beautiful  style, 
while  the  study  of  the  modern  and  the  classical  languages  and 
literature  will  enrich  the  student's  vocabulary,  and  enable  him  to 
appreciate  the  beauties  of  Composition. 

8. — Accuracy  of  Thought  and  Correctness  of  Reasoning. 

Accuracy  of  thought  and  correctness  of  reasoning  is  of  as  much 
importauce  as  fine  elocution  and  elegant  diction.  The  main  object 
of  education  is  to  develop  and  discipline  the  mental  powers.  To 
think  with  facility  and  reason  logically,  is  the  end  to  be  secured  by 
a  proper  drill  in  mathematics,  philosophy  and  dialectics.  Error 
would  soon  infold  society,  and  sap  the  foundations  of  truth,  were 
there  not  men  competent  to  sift  each  specious  theory,  and  expose 
its  fallacies.  Close  thinkers  alone  can  do  this.  They  are  the  con- 
servators of  truth,  and  the  allies  of  progress.  How  necessary. 
then,  is  a  thorough  drill  in  this  particular. 


T  'II.— Eclectic  Studies. 

The  Laws  of  the  College  provide  that  students  of  any  Course 
may  elect  to  pursue  an  equivalent  study  in  any  other  course,  with 
the  consent  of  the  Faculty.

DISCIPLINE. 


discipline. 


The  government  of  the  College  is  strict,  but  parental.  It  is 
based  on  the  ideas  of  right  and  wrong,  and  will  be  administered 
impartially. 

The  object  of  the  Institution  is  to  afford  a  home,  where  parents 
or  guardians  may  place  their  children  aud  wards  with  safety  and 
profit,  and  where  young  men  and  young  ladies  may  be  fitted  for 
usefulness  in  life,  under  influences  calculated  to  refine  their  tastes, 
ennoble  their  aspirations,  and  develop  a  high  Christian  character. 
By  a  kind  but  firm  administration  of  wholesome  regulations,  by  the 
requirement  of  strict  attention  to  the  exercises  of  the  school,  and 
by  constant  and  careful  training,  the  moral  and  intellectual  powers 
are  developed,  and  students  fitted  for  high  and  responsible  positions. 

In  the  Collegiate  department  students  are  required  to  attend 
twenty  recitations  and  lectures  per  week,  and  for  every  unexcused 
absence  or  failure,  they  receive  a  demerit  mark. 

All  roughness,  obscenity  or  vulgarity  iu  language  or  action  is 
strictly  forbidden,  aud  every  species  of  conduct,  immoral  or  vicious 
in  its  tendency,  is  contrary  to  the  letter  and  spirit  of  the  laws  of 
the  Institution.  .  (J-anibling,  quarreling,  the  drinking  of  intoxi- 
cating liquors,  prof'auity,  dishonesty,  the  using  of  tobacco  about 
the  grounds  and  buildiugs,  idleness,  carelessness  and  incorrigibility, 
will  meet  with  condign  punishment. 

JVo  vicious,  idle,  or  disobedient  student  will  he  retained  in  the 
Institution,  nor  loill  such  be  hnowincjly  received. 

Students  are  required — 

(a.)  To  attend  prayers  every  morning  and  every  evening  except  on 
Saturday  and  Sabbath. 

(b.)  To  attend  public  worship  twice  on  the  Sabbath  day,  at  such  place 
as  their  parents  or  guardians  may  designate. 

(c.)  To  attend  promptly  all  appointed  exercises,  and  diligently  to  pre- 
pare the  same. 

(d.)  To  observe  the  regulations  with  regard  to  study,  recitations,  &c. 

(e.)  And,  generally,  to  conduct  themselves  in  an  orderty  and  becom- 
ing manner. 

Every  unexcused  absence,  failure  or  misdemeanor  is  reported  to 
the  faculty,  and  a  record  made  of  the  same. 

Five  demerit  marks  will  subject  a  student  to  private  reproof; 
ten,  to  public  reproof  with  notice  to  parent  or  guardian,  and  fifteen, 
to  dismission. 

The  Faculty  may,  on  evidence  of  reformation,  restore  a  dismiss- 
ed student. 

For  graver  offences,  the  punishments  are  reproof,  loss  of  priv- 
ilege, confinement,  dismission  and  expulsion.
