LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
History of the College
Lebanon Valley College had its beginning- May 7, 1866, its organi-
zation being the outgrowth of the action of the East Pennsylvania
Annual Conference to establish a higher institution of learning in
the church. An academy building in Annville was presented to
the conference on condition that such an institution as contemplated
be perpetually maintained, and it was in this building that the
college was founded with an attendance of forty-nine, this number
being increased to one hundred and fifty-three on the enrollment
list by the close of the following year.
In 1867 eleven additional acres of ground was purchased, and on
August 23 of that year was laid the corner-stone of what was des-
tined to be, until the close of 1904, the main building of the college.
Unfortunately, the larger needs of the college of to-day were not
anticipated, and a portion of the grounds was divided into building
lots and sold.
The new building contained the chapel, recitation rooms, presi-
dent's office, and dormitory, with kitchen and dining hall in the
basement.
The building was furnished in time for closing exercises to be
held in it at the close of the college year in 1868, although there
was no regular commencement until June 16, 1870, when the first
three graduates, William B. Bodenhorn, Albert C. Rigler, and Mary
A. Weiss (Mrs. John R. Reitzel) received their diplomas.
In 1883 a two-story frame building was erected on College Avenue,
which contained library, museum, art room, accommodations for the
science department, and several recitation rooms. This was used
until 1900, when the addition of a large wing to the main building
rendered it no longer necessary and it was removed.
In 1899 was finished Engle Music Hall, the handsome gift of Mr. B.
H. Engle. This hall is a three-story brown stone building, and con-
tains chapel, the office and practice rooms of the music department,
art room, and Kalozetean Literary Society hall. Here, too, the
library and reading room found accommodations for six years.
In 1904-1905 Mr. Andrew Carnegie presented to the college the
beautiful library building elsewhere described, and in 1904 ground
was broken on the Sheridan Avenue side of the campus for a new
ladies' dormitory.
A crisis in the history of the college came on December 24, 1904,
when early in the evening fire broke out and swiftly swept away the
entire main building. What a loss this was, may be realized when
8 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
we recall that at this time there were in this building- well-equipped
chemical, physical, and biological laboratories ; a museum contain-
ing many valuable specimens ; the president's office ; recitation
rooms; Philokosmian hall, newly and beautifully furnished; dormi-
tories for sixty students, and the heat plant for the entire institu-
tion. A portion of the apparatus was saved, and a little of the
recitation room furniture; but everything else, including the papers
and records left in the office, and all of the students' property left
in the rooms during the vacation, was totally destroyed.
While the portion of the building containing the boiler was
wrecked, the boilers themselves were fortunately not so badly in-
jured but that they could in a short time be put in working order,
and the opening of the winter term was delayed but a single week.
There were left to the college in which to carry on its work the
original building, for years used as a dining hall and ladies' dormi-
tory; the music building, and the almost completed Carnegie
library. What was left of the laboratory apparatus was transferred
to the library basement ; seminar rooms in the library, one or two
rooms in the ladies' hall, chapel and practice rooms in the music
hall, were at once converted into recitation rooms; rooms in private
homes in the village were donated to the college for dormitory
purposes, and work was resumed at once with the loss of but a single
student, who had gone home with the expectation of not returning.
Meanwhile, how had the internal work proceeded? A charter was
obtained in April, 1867, and a faculty organized with Thomas Rees
Vickroy as president, and Prof. E. Benjamin Bierman, principal
of a normal department for teachers. President Vickroy served
until 1871, faithfully doing the pioneer work of establishing a
curriculum and regulations for the college government. He was
followed by Lucian H. Hammond, who served from 1871-1876, when
failing health compelled him to resign. The third president was
Rev. David D. DeLong, who served from 1876 to August, 1887.
During his administration there was organized a musical department,
from which the first class was graduated in 1882.
There was an interregnum of several months after the resignation
of President DeLong, the executive committee and faculty manag-
ing the interests of the institution. In October, 1887, Rev. Edmund
S. Lorenz was elected to the presidency, ably filling the position
until the close of 1889, when his health failed and he was obliged to
resign, his successor being Rev. Cyrus J. Kephart. President Kep-
hart served but a year, declining a re-election.
Certain discouraging conditions led to discussion concerning re-
locating the college. It was at this juncture that the board of
HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE 9
trustees elected Dr. E. Benjamin Bierman to the presidency. It
was in the early part of his administration that the Mary A. Dodge
scholarship fund for the help of worthy students was given to the
college. President Bierman served until the spring of 1897, when
he was succeeded by Dr. Hervin U. Roop, who held the office until
January 1, 1906, after which time the administration of the college
was in the hands of the executive committee and the faculty,
until the election of the Rev. A. P. Funkhouser, March 9, 1906.
During the successive administrations the work has grown from
its original small proportions to the creditable conditions indicated
by the various courses of study outlined in the present issue of the
Bulletin. 356 have been graduated in the literary department,
and 88 in music. The faculty from eight members in the beginning
has increased to its present number, 13 professors and 13 instructors.
Three literary societies have been organized among the students,
two for young men, the Philokosmian, organized in 1867, and the
Kalozetean, in 1877 ; and one for young women, the Clionian, organ-
ized in 1872.
The regular publications of the college are the Bulletin, issued
quarterly by the faculty ; and the College Forum, published since
1888 by the students.
Immediately after the fire President Roop secured from Mr.
Andrew Carnegie, who had already presented the college with the
library building, a gift of $50,000, on condition that a like amount be
secured from friends of the institution. The work of rebuilding was
at once begun, and by the opening of another year the work will no
longer be handicapped by the external conditions existing since the
fire ; but spacious and handsome accommodations will be furnished
in the different buildings elsewhere described, for the various depart-
ments of Lebanon Valley College.
The directors of the college are a board of trustees elected from
the Pennsylvania, Eastern Pennsylvania, and Virginia annual con-
ferences, and from the alumni association.
10 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
General kiformation
Buildings and Grounds
There are six building-s on the campus in use, the Carnegie
library, the Engle music hall, the women's dormitory, the men's
dormitory, the academy building, and the heating plant.
THE CARNEGIE LIBRARY, a building of the Gothic style of
architecture, was erected in 1904. It contains reading rooms, stack
rooms, and seminar rooms, together with a large assembly room, at
present used for general lecture purposes, and later intended to be
converted into a stack room.
THE ENGLE MUSIC HALL, of Hummelstown brownstone,
erected in 1899, contains the college chapel, used for all large college
gatherings, a director's office and studio, practice rooms, a large
society hall, and a room for the department of art. The building is
well equipped with pianos and a large pipe organ.
THE WOMEN'S DORMITORY was erected in 1905, and is a
building of beautiful proportions. In addition to rooms which will
accommodate forty-five students, there are a society hall, a dining
hall, a well equipped kitchen, and a laundry.
THE MEN'S DORMITORY is a modern structure of brick with
Indiana limestone trimmings. It contains single and double rooms
and sixteen suites of two bed rooms with a separate study room.
These afford accommodations for eighty-five students. This building
was also erected in 1905.
THE ACADEMY BUILDING, the original building of the insti-
tution, and acquired by gift in 1866 when the college was founded, is
now used as a dormitory and recitation hall for the academy students.
THE HEATING PLANT, erected in 1905, is in harmony with the
buildings above described. It contains a low pressure heating sys-
tem of the most perfect construction and supplies the heat for all
the buildings on the campus. It is constructed with a view to the
installation of a light plant.
THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, finally to be the most
important and central of the buildings, is now in course of construct-
ion. It is built of buff brick with terra cotta trimmings, three stories
high. It is to contain the recitation rooms of the college and the
laboratories of the science department. The department of art is
also to find here commodious and modern quarters. The administra-
tive offices of fire proof construction are on the first floor.
GENERAL INFORMATION 11
To accommodate all of these buildings, the campus, originally of
ten acres, has been recently enlarged by purchase. It occupies a
high point in the centre of the town of Annville and is within easy
access of all trolley and railroad lines.
The athletic field of five and one half acres, is well located and
admirably adapted to the purposes for which it is intended. On it
are erected a good grand stand and bleachers.
Religious Work
Recognizing that most of its students come from Christian fam-
ilies, the college has always tried to furnish religious training. It
believes in cultivating the heart as well as the mind, and encourages
all wholesome means of promoting Christian influence.
Each school morning, a regular service is held in the college
chapel, at which the students are required to be present. At this
service there is singing, reading of scripture, and prayer. Members
of the faculty conduct this service.
A students' prayer meeting is held once a week, and opportunities
for Bible study and mission study are offered by the Christian asso-
ciations in addition to those afforded by the regular curriculum.
A Bible Normal class is conducted to train Sunday school teachers.
The course extends over one year and a diploma is granted to all
who complete the course.
All resident students of the college are required to attend public
worship in churches of their choice every Sunday.
The religious life during the past year has been earnest and help-
ful, and patrons may feel satisfied that high moral influences are
being exerted constantly over their children.
College Organizations
Associations
Christian '^^® college has flourishing Young Men's and
Young Women's Christian Associations, which hold
regular weekly devotional services and conduct
special courses of Bible and mission study, often in charge of
members of the faculty.
These organizations frequently are visited by the general secre-
taries, who infuse enthusiasm into the work. Membership is voluntary,
12 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
and the success of these societies is an almost certain index of the
natural condition of the religious life at Lebanon Valley College.
Under their auspices numerous public lectures, entertainments,
and socials are held, so they contribute incalculably to the pleasure
of the student body. They are the centre of the spiritual welfare of
the students and deserve the hearty support of all connected with the
college.
Literarv Excellent opportunities for literary improvement and
. . parliamentary training are afforded by the societies of
ocie es ^^^ college. There are three of these societies — one
sustained by the young ladies, the Clionian; and two by the young
men, the Kalozetean and the Philokosmian. They meet every Fri-
day evening in their well furnished halls for literary exercises con-
sisting of orations, essays, and debates. These societies are con-
sidered valuable agencies in college work, and students are advised
to unite with one of them.
Athletic "^^^ Athletic Association is composed of all
. . students and others connected with the college, who
pay the required athletic fee. It elects besides its
own officers, the managers of the various athletic teams.
The direct supervision of athletics is in the hands of the committee
of the association, called the executive board of athletics. This
board is made up of seven members as follows: Two members of the
faculty of the college; the president of the association, who is ex-
officio president of the board; the base ball, foot ball, and basket ball
managers, and the treasurer of the association.
Bioloeical "^^^ Biological Field Club offers to any student of
the college an opportunity to collect, study, and
*® " discuss objects of interest in the field of living
nature. Frequent excursions are made to places of special interest
to members of the club.
Historical '^^® Historical Society of Lebanon Valley College is
organized by the students who have elected the his-
*^*® ^ torical-political group together with such others as
may be especially interested in historical studies. The purpose of
the organization is to stimulate among the students the spirit of
historical research. Members of the society are collecting material
for a museum, which will be arranged in proper form as soon as
suitable provision can be made in one of the new buildings. The
society holds stated meetings, at which papers are read and subjects
of historic importance are discussed. The members of the society
from time to time visit places of historic note.
GENERAL INFORMATION 13
>
Modem Lan- ^^ order to stimulate interest in the study of
^, , the modern lang-uages, at the request of the
sudse Club o o 7 -a
* ^ junior and senior students of the modern lan-
g-uage g"roup, a club has been formed under the direction of the
adviser of the group. The club meets every third Saturday evening-
or afternoon as occasion suggests. Student programs alternate with
lectures by the teachers in the department.
Library and Reading Rooms
The beautiful new Carnegie library building furnishes commod-
ious quarters for the growing library of the college. Each depart-
ment has its particular books for reference in addition to the large
number of volumes for general reading and study. An annual
amount is appropriated by the board of trustees for the purchase
of new books, and plans are being made for the enlargement of the
library in order to meet the growing needs of the college.
Two large reading rooms on the first floor, splendidly lighted
and ventilated, and beautifully furnished, are provided with the
leading* magazines and daily papers. Periodicals devoted to the
special work of each department are here, as well as magazines of
general literature. On the second floor are six seminar rooms,
designed to be equipped with the special works of reference for the
various departments, where students doing the most serious work
may study undisturbed.
Laboratories
Since the disastrous fire, December, 1904, the laboratories have
been temporarily housed in the basement of the Carnegie library.
The department of biology occupies the southeast room, and
chemistry the remainder of the basement.
Owing to the extremely temporary nature of the quarters, little in
the way of permanent equipment, as lockers and extensive plumbing,
has been put in. Two rooms on the second floor of the Carnegie
library have been provided for laboratory work in physics, while a
third is utilized as an apparatus room.
Literary and Musical Advantages
During the college year, the student body has the privilege of
hearing lectures and talks delivered by resident professors and men
of note in church and literary circles.
14 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
The department of music together with the department of
public speaking presents a number of programs during the year for
the pleasure and benefit of the general student body. Concerts and
recitals by prominent musicians are given under the patronage of
the department of music with the aim of creating in the student an
appreciation for the best in art.
For the last two years a lively interest in dramatics has been
aroused and sustained largely through the production of Shakes-
pearean plays under the direction of the department of public
speaking. Various college organizations have likewise presented
plays of a high grade. These efforts in production help to broaden
the interests of the student and to increase his powers for aesthetic
appreciation.
A further means of enjoyment and education is the evening course
of five numbers including lecturers and concert performers under
the management of the Christian associations of the college.
Scholarships
The college offers a limited number of one-hundred-dollar free
tuition scholarships to honor graduates of State normal schools and
approved high schools and academies. One scholarship is allotted to
the first honor graduate of our own academy.
Graduates of high schools and academies whose standard is not
equal to that of our own academy, may enter the senior year of the
academy and become competitors for our own academy scholarship.
Honor graduates of preparatory schools who have conditions, may
be allowed to make them up in the freshman year. If the first
semester's work shows a majority of A's and nothing less than B in
all work including conditions, a scholarship may be awarded.
The faculty shall make all scholarship awards.
Graduate Work
Since all its members are fully occupied with undergraduate work,
the faculty deems it unwise to offer any work for the degree of Master
of Arts during the coming year. In rare cases sufficient resident
work upon certain advanced courses given may be outlined. But as
special action would be required in each case, no detailed announce-
ment can be made here. All inquiries about graduate work should
be addressed to the registrar.
GENERAL INFORMATION 15
Administration
AAxii^t^ The following are the advisers for the students in
each of the five groups in which courses of instruct-
ion are offered: For the classical group, Professor Spangler; for the
philosophical, Professor John; for the chemical-biological, Professor
McFadden; for the historical-political, Professor Shenk ; for the
modern language. Professor Schlichter ; for the freshman class,
Professor Daugherty, and for the academy. Professor Spessard. The
students of each group are amenable to the adviser in all matters of
conduct, study, and discipline. He is to grant leave of absence,
permission to go out of town, and excuses. His approval is necessary
before a student may register for or enter upon any course of study,
or discontinue any work. He is the medium of communication
between the faculty and the students of his group, and in
a general way stands to his students in the relation of friendly
counsellor.
It is earnestly desired that students may be in-
Discip me iiuenced to good conduct and diligence by higher
motives than fear of punishment. The sense of duty and honor, the
courteous and generous feelings natural to young men and women
engaged in literary pursuits, are appealed to as the best regulators
of conduct. It is the policy of the administration to allow in all
things as much liberty as will not be abused, and the students are
invited and expected to co-operate with the faculty; but good order
and discipline will be strictly maintained and misconduct punished
by adequate penalties. The laws of the college are as few and
simple as the proper regulation of a community of young men and
women will permit. The college will not place its stamp or bestow
its honors upon anyone who is not willing to deport himself becom-
ingly. Every unexcused absence from any college duty, every
failure or misdemeanor of a student, is reported to the faculty, and
a record made of the same.
The maximum number of hours, conditioned,
^ permitted for senior standing is four ; for
junior standing six, for sophomore eight, and for freshman — to be
decided for individual student by the committee on classification.
The permitted number of extra hours of work above that pre-
scribed by the curriculum is limited by the student's record for
previous years as follows :
(a) Majority of A's, nothing less than B — no limit.
(b) Majority of B's, nothing less than C — four hours.
(c) Lower record than (b) — no extra hours.
16 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
The scholarship of students is determined by
Class Manaing j-ggult of examinations and daily recitations
combined. The grades are carefully recorded.
Reports of standing will be made to parent or guardian at end of
each term when desired by them, or when the faculty deems it
expedient. The standing is indicated generally by classification in
six groups, as follows :
A signifies that the record of the student is distinguished.
B signifies that the record of the student is very good.
C signifies that the record is good.
. D signifies the lowest sustained record.
E (conditioned) imposes a condition on the student. Conditions
incurred in January must be made up by June ; conditions incurred
in June must be made up by September. Failing to make up a
condition at the time appointed is equal to a record F.
F (failed completely) signifies that the student must drop or
repeat the subjects, and cannot be admitted to subjects dependent
thereon.
If the student's record as a whole is poor, he may be required to
repeat certain subjects, to repeat the year, or to withdraw.
Deeree '^^® degree of bachelor of arts is conferred,
by a vote of the board of trustees on recom-
an ip oma mendation of the faculty, upon students who
have satisfactorily completed any of the groups.

Under Courses
Sometimes students of mature age come to us not fully prepared
to enter the academy. They have for various reasons attended school
but a short time and find it embarrassing- to enter the public schools
with scholars so much younger than themselves. For these we fur-
nish tutors from college classes. However, at least sixteen hours of
regular academy work is required for academy classification.
Facts To Be Considered
A one hundred dollar scholarship is awarded each year to the
academy graduate who has, according to the vote of the faculty,
made the best class record and deported himself in accordance with
the regulations of the academy.
Academy students are admitted to all social privileges of the col-
lege. Excellent opportunities are ofi'ered for self improvement in
the literary societies and Christian associations.

The object of the Normal Department is to give special instruc-
tion to young men and women who desire to teach in the public
schools of the county and state.
All the fundamental branches in which teachers are required to
be examined are systematically and thoroughly reviewed and daily
instruction is given in the principles of teaching and the art of
school management.
The work in the department is continued throughout the year.
During the spring term, which begins about the time public schools
close, special teachers are employed to accommodate the increasing
numbers. These teachers are the best public school teachers obtain-
able who know just what points to emphasize in preparation.

and voice, under Sir R. P. Stewart. After completing the academic
course in Trinity Colleg-e, Dublin, he studied pipe organ and com-
position with Sir John Stainer, organist of St. Paul's, London, the
pianoforte with Sir Walter McFarren, of Cambridge University, and
voice training with Signor Randegger, London. Later he went to
Frankfort where he studied under Joachin Raff ; from there to Paris,
studying under Emil Haberbier. In 1883 Professor Oldham toured
through the United States as solo pianist to Camilla Urso, playing
in two hundred and ninety-seven cities and towns. He then
located in Toledo, Iowa, as director of the conservatory of Western
College. Later he lived in Lincoln, Nebraska, and left Le Mars,
Iowa, to take the direction of Lebanon Valley College Department
of Music.
Prof. John Karl Jackson
Professor Jackson is exceptionally well fitted for the position of
instructor in voice and elocution. He is an academic graduate of Red-
ding College (Illinois), also of Harvard University. He studied music
for two years in Knox Conservatory of Music (Illinois), and several
years in Boston under the best private teachers, such as J. Gilbert,
M. Von Below, and others. He studied history and theory of music
with J. K. Paine (Harvard), chorus training under W. A. Locke
(Boston), and was prominent in musical organizations at Harvard,
was soloist of the glee club, soloist several years in some of the
principal churches in Boston, and has appeared frequently as
concert singer both in the east and west.
Pianoforte
The course is divided into sixteen grades, equalling four grades
per annum for four years, work. A comprehensive study of the stan-
dard literature of instructive piano work is absolutely necessary to
the piano student and these are studied through the various grades.
The new school of studies edited by Carl Thumer and published in
sixteen grades, along with Koehler's and Plaidy's Technical Exercises
are the basis for the technical and etude work through all the grades.
Voice
It is the aim of this department to build up the voice, beginning
with the simplest forms of pure tone production and proceeding sys-
tematically to advanced vocalization. Perfect breath control, relax-
50 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE
ation, and correct tone placing are the cardinal points in voice cul-
ture, and these are carefully and rig-idly insisted upon. Phrasing,
enunciation, and resonance are also given important consideration in
the course. Special attention is paid to the needs of individual
voices, and the studies are varied accordingly.
Organ
The director has had twenty-five years' experience as concert and
church organist, and has studied and played in Great Britain, Ger-
many, and the United States.
The student must be advanced to at least the sixth grade in the
pianoforte course before taking up the study of the organ.
The course prepared is based on the best methods of England,
France, and Germany, and with a view to educating the student in the
most thorough manner. Special attention is given to the proper
modes of service playing, organ accompaniments, etc., as well as con-
cert or recital playing.

work. It is taught in classes, but backward students can arrange for
private lessons.
