LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 


FOUNDING  OF  THE  INSTITUTION. 

Lebanon  Valley  College  came  into  existence  to  supply  an 
absolute  want.  Denominational  growth  and  an  advancing 
civilization  rendered  it  necessary  for  the  Church  of  "The 
United  Brethren  in  Christ,"  throughout  the  States  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, Maryland,  and  Virginia,  to  make  special  provision  for 
the  moral  and  intellectual  culture  of  her  children.  After 
much  deliberation  and  prayer,  it  was  resolved  that  an  institu- 
tion of  learning  be  established,  which  would  furnish  the  ad- 
vantages of  a  thorough  education  alike  to  young  men  and 
women,  under  the  safe  and  inspiring  influence  of  the  Christian 
religion. 

To  carry  out  this  purpose,  a  committee  of  worthy  gentlemen 
was  chosen  with  authority  to  select  a  suitable  place  for  its 
establishment. 

THE  TOWN  OF  ANNVILLE, 

Located  in  the  midst  of  the  beautiful  Lebanon  Valley,  was 
chosen  on  account  of  its  accessibility,  healthfulness  and  in- 
spiring scenery. 

As  a  further  inducement  to  locate  the  College  at  this  place, 
a  suitable  building  and  grounds  were  donated  by  public- 
spirited  citizens  for  educational  purposes.  In  1866  the  Insti- 
tution was  founded,  and  in  1867  chartered  by  a  Special  Act  of 
the  Legislature  of  the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania. 


Of  the  Trustees  and  Faculty,  from  the  first,  has  been  to  pro- 
vide courses  of  study  which  will  qualify  students  to  be  practi- 
cal and  self-reliant,  as  well  as  learned. 

The  Charter  plainly  indicates,  that  it  was  the  intention  of 
the  founders  to  plant  an  institution  which  would  become  so 
ample  in  facilities  and  manifold  in  departments  as  to  furnish 


0^^l<^ 


4  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

instruction  in  all  the  subjects  of  a  general  and  special  educa- 
tion, and  toward  this  original  purpose  the  Institution  will  ad- 
vance as  rapidly  as  the  necessary  means  are  secured  and  cir- 
cumstances will  demand. 

OFFICERS  OF  THE  CORPORATION. 

The  members  composing  the  Board  of  Trustees  are  elected 
by  the  cooperating  conferences,  one-third  of  whom  are  elected 
annually  for  a  term  of  three  years. 

The  members  of  the  Faculty,  and  two  persons  chosen  by  the 
Alumni  from  their  own  number,  sustain  an  cx-officio  relation. 

FIDELITY  TO  PATRONS. 

The  members  of  the  Faculty  believe  that  all  pupils  should 
be  encouraged  to  educate  as  thoroughly  as  their  means  and 
native  endowment  will  admit,  even  when  there  is  promise  of 
only  moderate  success;  but  when  a  student  persists  in  a  course 
of  indifference  and  manifests  no  appreciation  of  time,  money, 
or  opportunities,  the  Institution  regards  itself  morally  bound 
to  make  known  the  facts  to  its  patrons,  but  not  until  every 
worthy  method  has  been  employed  for  his  reformation. 

CO-EDUCATION. 

The  principle  of  co-education  of  the  sexes  was  adopted  from 
the  first  by  the  founders  of  the  College — and  the  entire  absence 
of  college  barbarities  and  excesses,  as  well  as  the  manifestation 
of  a  tendency  to  a  higher  standard  of  scholarship,  from  year  to 
year,  proves  the  wisdom  of  this  natural  order  of  things.  The 
facilities  of  the  College  and  the  encouragements  to  a  thorough 
education  are  offered  alike  to  all.  Experience  has  shown  that 
there  is  no  appreciable  difference  between  the  man  and  the 
woman,  as  such,  as  to  ability  in  mastering  the  studies  of  a 
college  course. 

NON-SECTARIAN. 

While  the  College  is  denominational  in  management,  it  is 
positively  free  from  sectarian  bias;  and  the  liberal  patronage 
which  it  has  enjoyed  from  homes  representing  all   phases  ot 


LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE.  5 

Protestant  faith,  as  well  as  from  the  homes  of  non-professors, 
attests  the  fact  that  colleges  may  inculcate  the  principles  of 
Christian  morality  without  traducing  the  religious  convictions 
or  personal  belief  of  any  one. 

AGGRESSIVE  IN  SPIRIT. 

The  Institution  is  not  bound  in  theory  or  practice  to  anti- 
quated methods,  but  it  seeks  to  interpret  the  laws  of  science 
and  of  life  in  keeping  with  the  spirit  of  progress  and  the  lead- 
ings of  Providence. 

GUARANTY. 

Fidelity  to  these  principles  in  the  past  is  the  guaranty  that 
the  Institution  offers  to  its  patrons  in  the  future.

COURSES  OF  STUDY. 

The  college  offers  four  courses  of  study — the  Classical,  the 
Scientific,  the  Academical,  and  the  Musical. 

THE  CLASSICAL  COURSE. 

Is  the  most  thorough,  and  should  be  elected  by  all  whose- 
opportunities  will  permit  of  their  taking  it,  and  especially  by  such 
as  aspire  to  the  ripest  scholarship  or  purely  literary  pursuits.. 
Those  who  satisfactorily  finish  this  course  are  graduated  with, 
the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts. 

THE  SCIENTIFIC  COURSE 

Requires  but  one  ancient  language,  either  the  Greek  or  the 
Latin ;  otherwise  it  is  the  same  as  the  Classical  Course. 
It  leads  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science. 

THE  ACADEMICAL  COURSE 

Extends  over  three  Collegiate  years,  and  is  as  full  and  sym- 
metrical as  the  time  will  admit.  It  is  intended  to  furnish  the 
necessary  discipline  and  instruction  for  a  practical  education. 
A  diploma  will  be  awarded  to  those  who  complete  this  course.. 

THE  MUSICAL  COURSE, 

In  addition  to  the  regular  studies  of  the  subject,  requires  a 
general  knowledge  of  such  branches  as  are  best  suited  to  a: 
musical  education.

Definitions  and  Parsing;  also,  classes  in  Reading,  Drawing, 
Penmanship,  Descriptive  Geography,  and  a  class  in  Book- 
keeping. 

NORMAL   DEPARTMENT. 

It  has  been  our  custom  for  a  number  of  years  to  provide  a 
Normal  Department  for  the  instruction  of  teachers,  or  of  those 
who  intend  to  teach.     Recently  the  department  has  been  more 


126  LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 

fully  organized,  the  course  enlarged,  the  number  of  instructors 
increased,  and  the  facilities  improved.  This  department  is 
open  during  the  Spring  Term  only. 

COURSE    OF   INSTRUCTION.

Geography  (Butler  or  Guyot);  Political  Geography  (Butler);

In  addition  to  these  the  regular  college  work,  including  the 
Higher  Mathematics,  Sciences,  etc.,  offers  opportunities  for 
advanced  work. 

Lectures  by  prominent  educators  on  various  phases  of  the 
educational  work  will  be  provided,  to  add  variety,  interest  and 
inspiration. 

DEPARTMENT    OF    MUSIC. 

,  MUSIC   COURSE, 

The  course  of  instruction  in  either  Piano  or  Voice  will  oc- 
cupy three  years.  A  Preparatory  year  is  also  required  of 
those  who  expect  to  enter  upon  the  regular  course,  and  are  not 
already  familiar  with  the  rudiments  of  music.  Pupils  may  de- 
vote their  entire  time  to  music,  or  take  it  in  connection  with 
other  studies.  The  stated  time  for  completing  the  course  may 
be  lengthened  or  shortened,  according  to  the  advancement  of 
the  pupil.  Some  pupils  will  accomplish  in  two  years  what,  in 
case  of  others,  will  require  three  or  four.  A  knowledge  of  the 
elements  of  Harmony  will  be  required,  or  one  year's  study,  in 
order  to  graduate  in  either  Piano  or  Voice.  At  the  close  ot 
each  term  a  written  examination  is  required.  A  graduate  in 
Voice  is  also  expected  to  acquire  a  degree  of  proficiency  on 


LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE.  2'] 

the  Piano,  sufficient  to  enable  him  to   play  his  own  accom- 
paniments. 

PRIVATE  AND  CLASS    LESSONS. 

Private  lessons  will  be  given  at  extra  cost,  but  the  class  sys- 
tem'is  strongly  recommended.  It  is  practiced  in  the  best  con- 
servatories of  this  country  and  Europe.  Mendelssohn  says  : 
■"  It  has  advantages  over  private  instruction  ;  it  produces  in- 
dustry, spurs  on  to  emulation  and  preserves  against  one-sided- 
ness  of  education  and  taste."  "  The  student  of  music  will  as 
surely  fail  of  a  complete  musical  education,  by  taking  private 
instruction  alone,  as  would  the  student  of  science  without  the 
advantage  of  the  College  or  University." 

Students  in  Piano  are  arranged  in  classes  of  two.  Pupils  in 
Voice  culture  in  classes  of  two  or  four.  Harmony  students 
in  classes  of  four  or  six. 

Elements  of  music,  sight-singing  and  part-singing  classes 
free  to  all  music  pupils.  Public  recitals  are  given  by  the  music 
pupils  every  two  months. 

Pupils  will  take  practice  in  ensemble  playing. 

RECITATIONS. 

Classes  in  cultivation  of  the  voice,  piano-forte,  organ,  har- 
mony and  chorus  practice  receive  two  lessons  a  week.  Stu- 
dents may  enter  at  any  time,  but  it  is  very  desirable  that  they 
should  begin  with  the  term  on  account  of  grading,  time  of  les- 
sons, etc.  A  careful  examination  is  made  by  the  teacher  in 
charge,  regarding  the  proficiency  of  all  new  pupils,  that  they 
may  be  properly  classified  in  the  course. 

Sheet  music,  books,  etc.,  can  be  obtained  at  reduced  rates. 

Those  Avho  complete  the  required  course  of  study  in  either 
Piano  or  Voice  are  awarded  a  diploma.  Diplomas  will  be 
conferred  only  at  the  Annual  Commencement. 

ART  DEPARTMENT. 

This  department  is  well  supplied  with  studies  from  the  best 
artists,  additions  being  made  from  time  to  time.     Ample  op- 


28  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

portunities  are  afforded  for  obtaining  instruction  in  Free-hand 
Drawing,  both  from  casts  and  the  flat,  Modeling  in  Clay, 
Painting  from  Copy  or  Still  Life  in  Oil  or  Water  Colors,  and 
China  Decoration.  It  is  intended  to  impart  essential  princi- 
ples while  training  the  eye  and  hand  to  accurate  and  success- 
ful practice. 

Special  advantages  in  this  department  are  afforded  by  a  sys- 
tem of  giving  daily  lessons,  which  is  not  customary  in  schools 
not  especially  devoted  to  Art. 

Students  will  find  works  of  interest  and  assistance  in  the 
College  Library. 

POST-GRADUATE  COURSES. 

Lebanon  Valley  College  offers  to  its  own  graduates  and 
those  of  other  Colleges,  seven  courses  for  non-resident  study, 
leading  to  the  degree  of  Doctor  of  Philosophy: 

1.  Course  in  Philosophy. 

2.  Course  in  ^Esthetics, 
in  Ethics, 
in  Christian  Evidences. 

5.  Course  in  Political  Science. 

6.  Course  in  Pedagogics. 

7.  Course  in  Science. 

The  courses  are  organized  and  students  are  pursuing  the 
studies. 

For  further  information  regarding  these  courses  and  the 
terms  attached,  that  may  be  desired,  address  the  President  of 
the  College.

LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE.  39 


GENERAL   INFORMATION. 

Lebanon  Valley  College  is  located  at  Annville.  This  village 
is  noted  for  its  healthfulness  and  freedom  from  those  tempta- 
tions to  vice  so  common  to  cities  and  large  towns.  It  is  acces- 
sible from  all  points,  being  located  on  the  direct  route  of  rail- 
road travel  from  Harrisburg,  via  Reading,  to  Philadelphia  or 
New  York.  Trains  stopping  at  Annville  leave  Harrisburg  and 
Reading  nine  times  a  day,  Sunday  excepted. 

BUILDINGS   AND    GROUNDS.  .     ■ 

The  Buildings,  three  in  number,  are  situated  on  a  fine  cam- 
pus of  about  six  acres,  within  easy  access  of  the  railroad,  post- 
offtce,  churches,  etc. 

The  main  building  is  a  large  brick  structure  containing 
Chapel,  Recitation  Rooms,  Society  Halls,  Reading  Room  and 
Gymnasium,  besides  a  number  of  dormitories  for  students. 
These  rooms  are  arranged  for  two  students  each,  are  well  ven- 
tilated and  provided  with  wardrobes.  The  building  is  heated 
throughout  by  steam. 

A  second  building  contains  the  Library,  Art  Room,  two 
Music  Rooms,  and  the  entire  department  of  Natural  Science 
with  Laboratory  and  Museum. 

The  Ladies'  Hall  is  entirely  separate  from  the  other  prem- 
ises, and  is  under  the  immediate  care  of  the  Preceptress. 
Young  ladies  from  abroad  are  furnished  a  comfortable  and 
pleasant  home,  where  they  have  every  advantage  for  study  and 
general  improvement.  Non-resident  students  board  in  the  In- 
stitution, where  they  are  under  the  continual  care  of  the  Presi- 
dent and  Professors. 

FURNISHING   AND   OUTFIT. 

Students  are  required  to  furnish  their  own  bedding,  except 
the  mattress,  bolster,  and   pillows.     They   should  have  their 


30  LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 

blankets,  sheets,  pillow-cases  and    clothing  indelibly  marked 
with  full  name. 

SPENDING   MONEY. 

Patrons  are  kindly  but  urgently  reminded  that  students  need 
very  little  pocket  money. 

It  should  be  remembered  that  luxurious  habits  and  good 
scholarship  seldom  go  together,  and  that  the  principles  and 
practice  of  economy  are  essential  to  a  good  education. 

FOR   ALL. 

It  is  desired  that  the  facilities  of  the  College  be  kept  within 
the  reach  of  all,  and  it  is  therefore  urged  that  jewelry  be  left  at 
home,  and  that  in  dress  there  be  no  vain  display. 

All  that  is  beyond  a  becoming  neatness  should  be  discarded 
by  the  student. 

DISCIPLINE. 

The  object  of  the  Institution  is  to  afford  a  home,  where  par- 
ents or  guardians  may  place  their  sons,  daughters,  and  wards,^ 
with  safety  and  profit,  and  where  young  men  and  young 
women  may  be  fitted  for  usefulness  under  influences  calculated 
to  refine  their  tastes^  ennoble  their  aspirations,  discipline  their 
intellectual  powers,  and  develop  a  high  Christian  character. 
The  Government  of  the  College  is  strict  but  parental,  mak- 
ing its  appeal  to  the  student's  own  sense  of  honor,  and  no  one 
habitually  guilty  of  immoral  practices,  or  who  is  persistently 
disorderly,  will  be  tolerated  in  the  Institution.  Every  unex- 
cused  absence,  failure,  or  misdemeanor  of  a  student  is  reported 
to  the  Faculty,  and  a  record  made  of  the  same. 

The  first  three  demerit  marks  will  subject  the  student  to 
private  reproof ;  the  first  six  to  reproof  before  the  Faculty  ;  the 
first  nine  to  reproof  in  public,  with  notice  to  parent  or  guar- 
dian ;  and  the  first  twelve  to  dismission  from  the  College. 

The  Faculty  may,  on  evidence  of  reformation,  restore  a  dis- 
missed student. 

STUDIES  AND  RECITATIONS. 

Students  are  required  to  pursue  the  studies  of  the  classes  to 


LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE.  3! 

which  they  are  assigned,  unless  exempted  for  special  reasons. 
No  student  is  permitted  to  take  a  study  to  which  he  has  not 
been  assigned,  nor  to  discontinue  a  study  without  permission 
obtained  from  the  Faculty. 

GRADING. 

Students  are  graded  on  their  work  in  the  Recitation  Room. 
The  standard  in  perfection  of  Scholarship  is  lOO  per  centum. 
The  student's  standing  is  determined  by  the  average  of  his 
term  and  examination  grades.  A  grade  of  less  than  65  per 
centum  will  compel  the  student  to  submit  to  a  second  exami- 
nation, or  to  repeat  the  study  with  the  next  lower  class. 

Parents  having  children  in  the  College  classes,  and  desiring 
their  report  and  grades,  may  obtain  them  by  applying  to  the 
Secretary  of  the  Faculty. 

EXAMINATIONS. 

Regular  examinations  are  held  at  the  close  of  each  term. 
The  examinations  are  intended  to  be  thorough,  and  serve  to 
determine  the  standing  of  the  student. 

In  all  cases,  when  from  any  cause  a  student  has  failed  to  be 
present  at  the  regular  examination,  he  shall  undergo  an  ex- 
amination before  being  permitted  again  to  recite  in  the  classes 
of  the  College. 

The  final  examinations  of  the  Seniors  are  held  two  weeks 
before  Commencement,  from  which  time  they  are  subject  only 
to  such  duties  as  are  required  for  their  preparation  for  gradua- 
tion. 

Candidates  for  class  standing  other  than  those  who  have 
regularly  pursued  their  studies  at  the  College,  or  who  bring 
certificates  of  class  standing  in  other  institutions,  are  required 
to  pass  special  examinations,  either  at  the  beginning  or  end  of 
a  term. 

PROMOTION. 

At  the  beginning  of  each  term,  the  old  classes  are  reorgan- 
ized and  new  ones  formed.  At  or  near  the  close  of  each 
academic  year,  the  names  of  all  the  members  of  each  class. 


32  LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 

separately,  come  before  the  Faculty  for  promotion,  and  those 
of  the  Senior  Class  for  graduation,  and  no  student  is  promoted 
to  a  higher  class,  or  to  graduation,  except  upon  the  unani- 
mous vote  of  the  Faculty. 

RHETORICAL  EXERCISES. 

All  students  upon  entering  the  institution  are  assigned  to 
rhetorical  classes,  which  are  met  on  Wednesday  of  each  week 
by  members  of  the  Faculty  for  literary  drill.  These  Rheto- 
ricals,  together  with  the  Literary  Societies,  afford  sufficient  op- 
portunities for  exercise  in  Composition  and  Oratory.  Advanced 
classes  in  the  College  are  required  to  take  part  in  public  exer- 
cises two  or  three  times  a  year. 

LEAVE  OF  ABSENCE. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  be  absent  during  the  term  without 
special  permission.  The  absence  of  a  student,  for  even  a  day, 
during  his  term-time,  exerts  on  his  progress  a  hurtful  influ- 
ence, which  is  seldom  fully  appreciated  by  parents  and  guar- 
dians ;  hence  no  apology,  but  that  of  sickness  or  unavoidable 
accident,  is  sufficient  to  excuse  a  student  from  regular  attend- 
ance at  recitations. 

No  student,  during  the  term,  is  expected  to  quit  the  Insti- 
tution without  the  consent  of  the  President  and  Faculty. 

Any  one  withdrawing  from  the  Institution  during  term-time 
without  giving  due  notice  and  having  permission  to  do  so,  will 
be  marked  upon  the  records  as  having  irregularly  withdrawn. 

Any  student  prevented  from  attending  class  must  present  to 
the  Professor  in  charge  a  written  excuse  for  being  absent. 

RELIGIOUS   EXERCISES. 

Religious  service  is  held  in  the  College  Chapel  on  the 
morning  of  each  day,  and  all  students  are  required  to  attend. 

Students  from  abroad,  who  are  residents  of  the  College,  are 
also  required  to  attend  public  worship  on  the  Sabbath  in  the 
United  Brethren  Church,  unless  otherwise  directed  by  the 
Faculty,  except  those  who  on  account  of  church  membership, 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE.  33 

or  wish  of  parent  or  guardian,  may  prefer  to  attend  church 
elscAvhere. 

A  students'  prayer  meeting,  to  which  all  are  invited,  is  held 
on  each  Tuesday  evening. 

CHRISTIAN   ASSOCIATIONS. 

There  are  thrifty  organizations  of  the  Young  Women's  and 
the  Young  Men's  Christian  Associations  in  the  College,  which 
hold  their  meetings  on  Saturday  night  of  each  week.  The 
moral  influence  of  these  organizations  is  very  salutary  in  the 
institution. 

LITERARY   SOCIETIES. 

There  are  connected  with  the  College  three  Literary  Socie- 
ties— the  Clionian,  the  Kalozetean,  and  the  Philokosmian. 
The  first  is  the  ladies'  society.  Each  has  its  proper  hall  and 
its  own  library.  These  societies  are  regarded  as  valuable  aids 
to  college  work,  and  students  are  advised  to  join  one  of  them. 

PHYSICAL  CULTURE. 

A  well  equipped  gymnasium  is  in  operation  in  the  main 
College  building,  to  which  all  students  have  access  at  stated 
times  by  the  payment  of  a  small  fee.  A  careful  "Director" 
has  oversight  of  these  exercises  to  guard  against  accidents  and 
immoderation. 

In  addition  to  the  physical  discipline  of  the  gymnasium,  the 
students  are  required  to  take  regular  exercise  in  the  open  air 
when  the  weather  will  admit  of  it,  and  every  precaution  is 
taken  to  foster  health, 

HELP  FOR   INDIGENT   STUDENTS. 

The  College  has  methods  of  assisting  a  limited  number  of 
worthy  young  men  who  have  not  the  means  of  .defraying  their 
own  expenses,  and  yet  scores  apply  from  year  to  year,  both 
of  ladies  and  gentlemen,  whom  we  have  not  the  means  to  help. 
May  not  the  statement  of  this  fact  be  a  sufficient  appeal  to 
lead  many  to  endow  scholarships,  the  income  of  which  will  be 
sufficient  to  help  to  an  education  those  who  could  not  other- 
wise obtain  it? 


34  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

LIBRARIES  AND   CABINETS. 

The  College  Library,  to  which  all  the  students  have  daily 
access,  contains  over  three  thousand  volumes.  The  libraries 
of  the  Literary  Societies  also  contain  sixteen  hundred  volumes 
of  well-selected  and  standard  books.  The  libraries  are  con- 
stantly increasing  by  donations  from  friends  and  from  the  pro- 
ceeds of  a  constantly  accruing  fund. 

The  cabinet  contains  a  collection  of  specimens  in  Miner- 
alogy, Geology,  Zoology,  and  Natural  History. 

READING  ROOM. 

There  is  in  the  College  a  well-stocked  Reading  Room  which 
is  daily  accessible  to  the  students,  and  in  connection  with  it  a 
Natural  History  Club  which  operates  in  conjunction  with  the 
corresponding  department  of  the  institution. 

A  small  fee  is  charged  for  reading  room  privileges.

the  equivalent  of  at  least  fifteen  periods  of  recitations  each 
week,  unless  excused  by  special  action  of  the  Faculty.

A  Normal  Class  for  the  instruction  of  Sunday  School  Teach- 
ers is  conducted  on  each  Sabbath  by  one  of  the  Professors. 
The  course  of  instruction  extends  over  one  year,  and  is  the 
one  provided  for  and  used  by  the  Bible  Normal  Union.  A 
diploma,  issued  by  the  Sunday  School  Board  of  the  United 
Brethren  Church,  is  granted  to  students  who  complete  the 
course. 

LECTURE  COURSE. 

A  course  of  popular  lectures  will  be  delivered  during  the 
Fall  and  Winter  Terms  by  some  of  the  most  noted  lecturers

ANNOUNCEMENT  AND  SUGGESTIONS. 

From  time  to  time  additions  are  being  made  of  apparatus 
for  philosophical  and  laboratory  purposes  as  well  as  of  speci- 
mens of  scientific  and  historic  interest.  Many  of  these  addi- 
tions are  the  gifts  of  friends  to  whom  the  college  makes  grate- 
ful acknowledgment. 

The  institution  is  prepared  to  suitably  preserve  and  exhibit 
all  specimens  of  any  value,  and  in  all  cases  the  wishes  of  do- 
nors will  be  respected.

are  especially  solicited. 

Contributions  to  the  College  Library  will  also  be  highly  ap- 
preciated, especially  of  old  and  rare  books  and  manuscripts, 
which  are  liable  to  be  lost  if  they  are  not  deposited  in  the 
library  of  a  permanent  institution. 

Books,  specimens  and  antique  relics  should  be  addressed  to 
the  librarian  or  Professor  of  the  Natural  Science  Department,

The  charges  for  room  rent,  heat,  and  furniture  are  made  on  the 
basis  of  two  persons  to  each  room.  In  case  where  a  student  rooms 
alone  he  will  be  charged  50  cents  additional  a  week.  Any  student 
not  boarding  in  the  institution  and  occupying  a  room  in  the  build- 
ing will  be  charged  a  reasonable  rent  for  the  same. 

Extra  washing,  plain  pieces,  50  cents  a  dozen.  White  dresses, 
etc.,  extra. 

Each  student  will  be  held  accountable  for  any  damage  he  may 
cause  to  the  college  property.  Students  will  be  held  individually  re- 
sponsible for  all  damage  done  to  their  rooms,  by  whomsoever  com- 
mitted. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE.  39 

Tuition  and  room  rent  are  counted  from  the  time  of  entering  to 
the  end  of  the  term,  and  tuition  from  the  first  of  the  term  for  en- 
trance second  or  third  week. 

We  urge  a  comparison  of  these  charges  with  those  of  other  schools, 
believing  that  such  a  comparison  will  establish  the  fact  that  our  rates 
are  more  moderate  for  the  advantages  afforded  than  can  be  found 
elsewhere. 

TERMS   OF   PAYMENT. 

All  fees  for  diplomas  and  degrees  must  be  paid  thirty  days  before 
Commencement. 

One-half  of  all  other  bills  in  advance.  Balance  at  the  middle  of 
the  term.  This  rule  will  be  invariably  enforced.  No  student  will 
be  admitted  to  classes  until  all  bills  are  satisfactorily  settled  with  the 
Financial  Secretary.

ENDOWMENT. 

There  are  Christian  men  and  women  who  could  not  devote  them- 
selves to  the  pursuits  of  knowledge  for  want  of  means ;  throughout 
their  life  they  have  felt  that  they  might  have  been  more  useful  and 
happy,  had  the  opportunities  of  securing  an  education  been  afforded 
them.  Will  not  these  men  and  women  become  the  benefactors  of 
those  worthy  young  people,  many  of  whem  now  are  thirsting  for  an 
education,  but  who  are  so  circumstanced  that  they  cannot  obtain  it? 

Those  wishing  to  consecrate  some  of  their  means  to  such  an  end, 
are  solicited  to  endow  limited  scholarships  in  Lebanon  Valley  Col- 
lege, to  assist  those  who  are  deserving  of  help.  These  may  vary 
in  amount  from  ^500  to  ^2,000.  They  may  also  help  to  bring  the 
opportunities  of  an  education  within  the  reach  of  those  in  limited 
circumstances  by  contributing  to  the  endowment  of  the  College. 

FORM   OF   SCHOLARSHIP  BEQUEST. 

I  bequeath  to  my  executors  the  sum  of dollars  in 

trust,  to  pay  over  the  same  in months  after  my  dece^e, 

to  the  person  who,  when  the  same  is  payable,  shall  act  as  Treasurer 
of  Lebanon  Valley  College,  founded  at  Annville,  Pennsylvania,  in 
the  year  one  thousand  eight  hundred  and  sixty-six,  as  a  scholarship 
fund,  the  interest  of  which  only  is  to  be  loaned  without  charge  to 
such  pious  young-  people  as  the  Faculty  of  the  College  may  deem 
worthy  of  help  as  students,  the  principal  of  the  scholarship  to  be 
under  the  direction  and  management  of  the  Trustees  of  the  College. 

FORM   OF   BEQUEST   TO   THE  ENDOWMENT   FUND. 

I  bequeath  to  my  executors  the  sum  of  .....    .  dollars,  in 

trust  to  pay  over  the  same  in months,  after  my  decease,

of  Lebanon  Valley  College,  founded  at  Annville,  Pennsylvania,  in 
the  year  one  thousand  eight  hundred  and  sixty-six,  the  same  to  be 
sacred  as  an  endowment  fund  in  said  College,  the  interest  only  to  be 

used  for  the  payment  of  instructors  in  the department ;
