MILLSAPS COLLEGE 3
TRIBUTE TO THE FOUNDER
Reuben Webster Millsaps, the Founder of Millsaps Col-
lege, was born In Copiah County, Mississippi, on May 30th,
1833. The Millsaps family originally came from Wales, and
Reuben Millsaps and Lavinia Millsaps, the parents of Major
Millsaps, came to Mississippi from Georgia. There seem to
have been several brothers who came to Mississippi about the
same time, and the group settled near Hazlehurst. The im-
mediate family of Major Millsaps owned a plantation in Pleas-
ant Valley, near Brown's Wells. There were nine children
in the family and Major Millsaps was the second son. He is
said to have been the favorite son of his father, and the tie
between Major Millsaps and his mother was unusually strong
and sympathetic.
This second son became notable for his ability at an early
age. At that time it was the custom of planters in interior
Mississippi to send their cotton by wagon train to Natchez and
to market it there. Reuben Millsaps had frequently taken his
little son with him on such trips, and the boy evinced such
interest and ability that he was trusted when only twelve years
of age to take charge of the wagons and market the cotton,
collecting the money due in gold, and bringing it safely home
to Pleasant Valley. Trusty slaves drove the wagons and han-
dled the cargo, and they of course made the camp when the
caravan stopped overnight going and coming. This little boy
each night dug a hole and hid his gold in it, sleeping over the
treasure to guard against the robbers who frequently waylaid
the returning wagon trains. After he had successfully made
several trips of this nature, other planters commissioned him
to take their cotton to Natchez, and he made money for him-
self in that manner.
The Millsaps clan, for it was a small clan, and their con-
nections were all devoted Methodists and were noted for abil-
ity and integrity. All were alert and ambitious in a fine way.
So when it became known in that section of Mississippi, at some
time in the middle "Forties", that boys of limited means could
get a college education in a Christian college in Indiana, mak-
ing most of their expenses by working their way, the whole
family seem to have been fired with an ambition to get a col-
4 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
lege education. First to go were T. J. "Wheat, a kinsman of
Major Millsaps, and an older cousin, Uriah Millsaps. This was
in 1849. They entered Hanover College, Indiana, and one
year later Major Millsaps and his elder brother, William Green
Millsaps, together with two Millsaps cousins, joined them there.
One evening Major Millsaps hung up the sack in which he
had picked cotton and announced that his cotton picking days
were over. He was going to college. His father frankly told
him that he was unable to send two boys to college since the
younger children had to be provided for. The seventeen year
old boy then told his father that he had saved all his money for
that purpose, and that he had enough to start on. To raise a
little money for his two boys a pony was sold for sixty dollars,
and with that sum and their savings William and Webster
Millsaps joined their two cousins, and the four started to
Indiana. As the four boys walked from Hazlehurst to Natchez,
from which they might proceed by a north-bound boat, this
seventeen year old boy made a secret covenant with his God
that, if he were prospered in his plans for life, he would some
day endow a college so that no Mississippi boy would have to
go out of Mississippi for a Christian Education. Forty years
later that vow bore fruit, and Millsaps College is the result.
How old is Millsaps College? By the calendar it is finishing
its forty-first year, but it was conceived nearly eighty-three
years ago.
Major Millsaps remained at Hanover College two years,
from 1850 to 1852. He sold books in vacation time to pay the
expenses of his course. His preparation was inadequate,
since he had only such advantages as he could get in an old
field school. But his application to his studies was such that
he made up his deficiencies and completed three years work
in two years, making high grades in all his studies. Indeed
he worked so hard that he impaired his health, and was consid-
ered delicate.
In 1852 Doctor Wheat and the five Millsaps boys changed
to Asbury College, Greencastle, Indiana, now De Pauw Uni-
versity, since it was a better equipped college than Hanover.
Soon three other Millsaps boys joined him. Shortly after his
arrival at Asbury Major Millsaps organized the boarding stu-
dents into a cooperative club which he managed. He fed the
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 5
boys well, yet reduced table board to $4.50 a month by skilful
buying and careful planning. He was a leader in his fra-
ternity, Beta Theta Pi, and also took a prominent part in de-
bating. Along with thes^e activities he improved his grades in
his studies, and acquired proficiency in the classics and an
abiding fondness for them. After he was well on in his six-
ties and a financier of large and varied interests, the Professor
of Classics in Millsaps College found him reading Caesar's
Commentaries for the pleasure of such a pastime.
After he graduated with an A.B. degree at Asbury Col-
lege he taught for two years in the family of Mr. Glass, a
wealthy planter near Vicksburg. In 1856 he entered the Law
School of Harvard University, and he graduated there in 185 8
with the degree of LL.B. On his return from Harvard he
passed through Washington and called on Senator Jefferson
Davis. Through him he met Senator Robinson, of Arkansas.
At his suggestion Major Millsaps began the practice of law at
Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and was building up a fine practice when
the Civil War began. He enlisted as a private in an Arkansas
regiment, and was subsequently promoted as Lieutenant, then
as Captain. He became an Adjutant, and then was made a
Major. He was a gallant soldier, was severely wounded at
the Battle of Shiloh, and afterward was captured at the Battle
of Franklin.
After the fall of the Confederacy he returned to Copiah
county, and began a mercantile business in Brookhaven. In
18 81 he entered business in St. Louis, Mo., where he remained
for four years. He was so successful that he accumulated a
competence, and retired for a short while. But he found
leisure so irksome that he returned to active work, and re-
mained busy until he died in 1916. Essentially an organizer,
he organized the Bank of Hazlehurst, the Bank of Clarksdale,
the Bank of Greenville, the Bank of Brookhaven, and finally
he united several banks in Jackson into the Capital National
Bank of Jackson, Mississippi, of which he remained President
until his death. His interests and holdings were widely scat-
tered throughout Mississippi, and his counsel in financial mat-
ters was widely sought, and was regarded as almost infallible.
He was honored greatly by his church. He was President
of the Board of Stewards of the First Methodist Church of
6 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Jackson, later the Galloway Memorial Church, President of the
official board of the Methodist Orphan's Home, and a large
contributor to the building funds of both institutions, for long
years a delegate to the Mississippi Conference, and several
times a delegate to the General Conference. He was a trustee
of Vanderbilt University until that institution ceased to be the
property of the Methodist Church. And his benevolence
passed far beyond the limits of his own denomination. He
was a constant and careful giver to every worthy cause.
But amid his numerous cares and responsibilities he never
lost sight of the covenant made long ago as he walked across
the country on his way to college. The dearest wish of his
heart was to found in Mississippi a Christian College, so that
Mississippi boys might be thoroughly educated at home. The
institution of his dreams must be a school of thorough scholar-
ship, and it must be also pre-eminently a Christian College. In
1888 his opportunity came. The two Methodist conferences
in Mississippi undertook jointly to establish a college for m^en,
to be owned and operated jointly by the two conferences. The
college was simply on paper until Major Millsaps offered to
give $50,000.00 to the new enterprise provided that the Meth-
odists of Mississippi would duplicate his gift. This they short-
ly did, and the new college was named Millsaps College, and
located in Jackson. It is to be noted that Major Millsaps
earnestly urged that the new college be named the Mississippi
Wesleyan College, but he was overruled by the votes of every
other member of the Board of Trustees. From then until the
day of his death Millsaps College was his main interest. He
served as Treasurer and financial adviser as long as he lived,
and the sound investment of the funds of the college was con-
stantly in his mind. He was never too busy to listen to any
plan for the benefit of the college. And, in the forty years
which elapsed between his first resolve to found a college and
its realization, he had studied the organization of colleges, and
was widely informed as to the development of colleges and
their respective programmes. He readily agreed to the mem-
bership of Millsaps College in the Southern Association of Col-
leges, and generously paid all expenses incident to that mem-
bership. No improvement in colleges escaped him.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 7
He was interested in the Literary Societies, in the Y. M.
C. A., and in the development of athletics. Baseball, football,
and track teams had his hearty support. Old in years he was
never antiquated in his notions. He understood and sympa-
thized with young people. Especially was he interested in
students who worked their way.
A word further needs to be said of his intellectual life and
alertness. Few men kept up better with the best publications
of his day. On his library table might be found the best books
in history and biography, and these comprised recent works as
well as the older standard ones. And to his keen appreciation
of the literary value of such works he added the insight of a
man of large affairs and of a fine knowledge of human nature.
When he associated with the best trained minds in subjects of
general human interest he was at no disadvantage. Widely
known and greatly honored as a financier, specialists in the
business world discovered to their surprise that Major Millsaps
was at home with the best men in other fields.
Balance, wisdom, and self mastery were combined in him
with a cheerful confidence in the eventual triumph of honesty,
industry, and character. Always original and always a leader
in every enterprise which he undertook, he furnishes a fine
example for young men. / In this time when the abiding values
of life stand in clearer relief, we are prepared to appreciate
his industry, frugality, patience, high resolve to do something
abiding for men, and the progressive conservatism of his life.
And his serene confidence in the wisdom and goodness of
God was with him when the end of his life drew near. He
knew when his work was done and he then wished to go.
Reverently he might have said in the words of his Master, "I
have finished the work thou gavest me to do." Besides his
thought and care he had given approximately $600,000.00 to
the college which bears his name, in addition to very many
other benefactions.
If, as has been said, an institution is the lengthened
shadow of a man, Millsaps College has a rich heritage, and she
can have no nobler work and no finer ideal than a high re-
solve to maintain throughout her existence the ideals and the
example of the noble man whose name she bears.

with, and have a common seal and break the same at pleasure,
and may accept donations of real and personal property for
30 MILLSAPS COLLEGE

and contributions of money or negotiable securities of every
kind in aid of the endowment of such College; and may con-
fer degrees and give certificates of scholarship and make by-
laws for the government of said College and its affairs, as well
as for their government, and do and perform all other acts
for the benefit of said institution and the promotion of its wel-
fare that are not repugnant to the Constitution and laws of
this State and of the United States, subject, however, to the
approval of the said Conferences.
Sec. 2. As soon as convenient after the passage of this
Act, the persons named in the first section thereof shall meet
in, the City of Jackson, in this State, and organize by accept-
ance of the charter and the election of Bishop Charles B. Gal-
loway as their permanent President, and of such other persons
as they may determine to fill the offices of Vice-President,
Secretary and Treasurer, and shall prescribe the duties, pow-
ers and terms of office of all said officers, except as to the
terms of their said President, who shall hold office during life
or good behavior, or so long as he may be physically able to
discharge his duties.
They shall also select by lot from the lay and clerical trus-
tees from each of said Conferences one-half, who shall be
trustees of said College for three years and until their succes-
sors are elected, and the other half not so selected shall re-
main In office for the term of six years and until their succes-
sors are chosen, as hereinafter mentioned. Upon the death,

Trustees may elect their President and prescribe his duties,
powers and term of office.
Sec. 3. That the said Trustees shall, before the meeting

over to and receipted for by them in their said corporate name,
and the payee of such notes and evidences of debt shall en-
dorse and assign the same to the corporation herein provided
for, which shall thereafter be vested with the full legal title
thereto, and authorized to sue for and collect the same.
The said corporation shall have the power to select any
appropriate town, city or other place in this State at which to

Sec. 5. That the land or grounds not to exceed one hun-
dred acres used by the corporation as a site and a campus for
said College, and the buildings, dormitories and halls thereon
erected, and the endowment fund contributed to said College

Sec. 6. That the cost of education shall, as far as prac-
ticable, be reduced by said corporation to the lowest point con-
sistent with the efficient operation of said College, and to this
end reports shall be made to the said Conferences from year

sonable effort shall be made to bring a collegiate education
within reach and ability of the poorer classes of the State.
32 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Sec. 7. That this Act take effect and be in force from
and after its passage.
The College has its origin in the general policy of the
Methodist Church to maintain its institutions under its own
control for higher learning in the Arts and Sciences.
At the Annual Session of the Mississippi Conference in the
City of Vicksburg, on December 7, in the year 1888, the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted by a large majority of the
Conference:
"Resolved, 1. That a college for males under
the auspices and control of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, ought to be established at some cen-
tral and accessible point in the State of Mississippi.
"2. That a committee of three laymen and
three preachers be appointed to confer with a like
committee to be appointed by the North Mississippi
Conference to formulate plans and to receive offers
of donations of land, buildings or money for that
purpose, and report to the next session of this Con-
ference."
In accordance with this action, the President of the Con-
ference, Bishop R. K. Hargrove appointed the following com-
mittee: Rev. T. L. Mellen, Rev. W. C. Black, Rev. A. F. Wat-
kins, Major R. W. Millsaps, Col. W. L. N'ugent and Dr. Luther
Sexton.
On December 12, 1888, the North Mississippi Conference
met at Starkville, Mississippi, Bishop C. B. Gallowaj'' presid-
ing. The Rev. T. L. Mellen appeared and reported the action
taken by the Mississippi Conference. The following tran-
script from the North Mississippi Conference Journal gives
the response made by that body:
"Resolved, 1. That a College for the education
of boys and young men should be established in the
State of Mississippi under the auspices of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, South.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 33
"That a committee of three laymen and three
ministers be appointed to confer with a like com-
mittee already appointed by the Mississippi Confer-
ence."
The following committee was accordingly appointed:
Rev. J. J. Wheat, Rev. S. M. Thames, Rev. T. J. Newell, Hon.
G. D. Shands, Capt. D. L. Sweatman and Mr. J. B Streater.
To the action of these Conferences we may trace the di-
rect origin of the College.
The joint commissions constituted by the action summar-
ized above met in the City of Jackson in January, 1889. The
Rev. Dr. J. J. Wheat was called to the chair. In stating the
purpose of the meeting he made a stirring appeal in behalf of
the proposition to establish a Methodist College in Mississippi
for the education of young men. In response to this earnest
appeal. Major R. W, Millsaps, a member of the commission,
proposed to give $50,000 to endow the institution, provided
the Methodists of Mississippi would give a sum equal to this
amount for said purpose. This proposition was enthusiasti-
cally approved, and after a plan of procedure was adopted.
Bishop Charles B. Galloway was invited to conduct a campaign
in the interest of the proposed endowment fund.
Under the direction of this distinguished leader, the most
gratifying progress was reported from time to time. The re-
port submitted to the Conferences by the committee in Decem-
ber, 1889, refers to the movement in the following language:
"The canvass, on account of the numerous ne-
cessitated absences of Bishop Galloway from the
State, could not be continuously carried on, but even
the partial canvass made, embracing not more than
one-fifth of our territory, resulted in the most grati-
fying and encouraging success. The interest awak-
ened in the enterprise has extended beyond the limits
of our own Church, and is felt by every denomina-
tion of Christians, and by every section of the State.
It is safe to say that no effort of Methodism has ever
kindled such enthusiasm in our State or evoked such
liberal offerings to the Lord. The fact has been
34 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
demonstrated that the Church is profoundly con-
vinced that the College is an absolute necessity."
The report continues:
"So high is the appreciation of the value of the
proposed institution that numerous towns in the
State have entered into earnest competition to se-
cure the location of the college within the limits of
their respective borders, offering from $10,000 to
$3 6,000, and from twenty to eighty acres of land."
In December, 1889, the Rev. A. F. Watkins, a member of
the Mississippi Conference, was appointed a special agent to
co-operate with Bishop Galloway in all matters pertaining to
the endowment of the proposed College. As the work of rais-
ing the sum designated in the original proposition progressed,
and $25,000 had been collected, Major Millsaps in the year
189 0 paid $25,000 into the College treasury.
In December, 189 2, the Rev. J. W. Chambers was appoint-
ed agent for the College, and on December 30, 1893, he re-
ported that the full amount had been collected to meet the
terms of Major Millsaps' proposition, and thereupon $25,000
was immediately paid by Major Millsaps to the Executive Com-
mittee and the following resolution was adopted:
"Resolved, That the Executive Committee return
our most heartfelt thanks to Major R. W. Millsaps
for his second gift of $25,000, this day turned over
to us. For his princely liberality, and unfailing in-
terest in the great enterprise so happily and suc-
cessfully inaugurated, the Church and State owe him
a large debt of gratitude."
The Conference having provided for a Board of Trustees,
the joint commission dissolved in January, 1890. This Board
to which was referred the matter of organizing the College,
was composed of the following:
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 35
BISHOP CHARLES B. GALLOWAY, President
REV. W. C. BLACK, D.D. REV. S. M. THAMES
REV. T. L. MELLEN REV. T. J. NEWELL
REV. A. F. WATKIXS REV. C. G. ANDREWS. D.D.
REV. R. M. STANDIFER HON. G. D. SHANDS
MAJ. R. W. MILLSAPS CAPT. D. L. SWEATMAN
COL. W. L. NUGENT MR. J. B. STREATER
DR. LUTHER SEXTON MR. JOHN TRICE
HON. M. M. EVANS REV. J. J. WHEAT, D.D.
After the Board organized under the charter, the question
of locating the College was considered with great care. The
Board met repeatedly to consider the offers made by different
towns, and finally on May 20, 1891, while in session in Wi-
nona, Mississippi, decided to locate the College in Jackson, the
capital of the State. The citizens of Jackson contributed
$21,000 for grounds and buildings, and to this sum Major
Millsaps added $15,000. Plans for a commodious main build-
ing were immediately procured, grounds were purchased, and
in a comparatively short time buildings were in process of
erection.
The College opened its doors for the reception of students
in 1892 with Rev. W. B. Murrah as President, and three pro-
fessors in the College. A Preparatory School was opened at
the same time with one Master. From time to time its facili-
ties have been enlarged and additional departments created,
until it now has, in addition to its President, twenty-two pro-
fessors in fourteen departments.
The Presidents of the College have been W. B. Murrah,
D.D., LL.D., later Bishop Murrah (1892-1910), D. C. Hull,
M.A., (1910-1912), A. F. Watkins, D.D., (1912-1923), and
D. M. Key, Ph.D., LL.D., (1923 ).
The unusual facilities for conducting a Law School in
Jackson led to the establishment in 189 6 of a Law School.
Hon. Edward Mayes, ex-Chancellor of the University of Mis-
sissippi, and for more than fourteen years a professor of law
in that institution, took active control of the new school. In
1918 it was discontinued.
36 MILLS APS COLLEGE
In 1911 the Academy was formally separated from the
College. It was made a distinct institution with the official
title of the Millsaps Academy. In 1922 it was discontinued.
The facilities of the College were enlarged in 189 5-189 6
by the generosity of Major Millsaps, who gave Webster Science
Hall. In 19 01 Mr. Dan A. James, of Yazoo City, built an ob-
servatory for the College, in memory of his father, Mr. Peter
James, and of his brother, Mr. Samuel James, and furnished
it with a fine telescope. Millsaps College can thus offer un-
usual advantages in astronomy. In 1902, to supply the in-
creasing demand for better dormitory and dining hall facili-
ties. Major Millsaps gave the College the property formerly
known as Jackson College. This enabled the College to fill
the demands made on it at that time. In addition to this gift
Major Millsaps gave fifty acres of land immediately adjoin-
ing our campus. Ample provision is thus made for the future
expansion of the College.
In 1906 the General Education Board offered to donate
from the funds provided by John D. Rockefeller for Higher
Education $25,000, provided an additional sum of $75,000.00
should be collected from other sources, for the permanent en-
dowment of the College. Rev. T. W. Lewis, of the North
Mississippi Conference, was made financial agent of the Col-
lege to collect this sum. In 1910, $32,279.10 had been col-
lected for this purpose. Mr. I. C. Enochs, a generous citizen
of Jackson, gave an additional $5,000. Major Millsaps, with
characteristic generosity, contributed the remaining $37,-
720.9 0. Thus the endowment of the College was increased
by $100,000.
In 1913 Major Millsaps gave to the College property on
Capitol Street, Jackson, valued at $150,000. This is the
largest single gift to the College.
The dormitory of the Preparatory School was destroyed
by fire in 1913, but was promptly rebuilt and made more val-
uable by alterations which also improved greatly the appear-
ance of the structure. A more disastrous fire destroyed the
main building in 1914. But within a few months the old
MILLSAPS COLLEGE ST
structure had been replaced by a far more commodious and
imposing administration building.
At the decease of. Major R. W. Millsaps in 19 IC, it was
found that he had left for the endowment of the College life
insurance to the amount of $88,000. This final benefaction
fittingly closed the long list of his gifts to the College.
During the Christian Education Campaign of 19 21 Mr. W.
S. F. Tatum, a generous layman of Hattiesburg, donated
$100,000 to the College for the establishment of the Depart-
ment of Religious Education. The Board of Trustees accept-
ed the gift, giving the department the name of the generous
donor. Later, in 1923 Mr. Tatum, realizing the growing im-
portance of this field in the church college, added $25,000 to
the sum at first given by him. By these gifts he created the
first separately endowed department in the college. The de-
partment was organized at the opening of the session of 1921-
'22, with Professor C. A. Bowen in charge. Provision was
made in the deed of gifts for the employment of an Associate
Professor, and Millsaps College now has two professors in this
department. The work of this department has grown in
scope and effectiveness until it is now recognized as doing a
leading work in the Methodist Church in this field. It is to
be hoped that others will see the opportunity for promoting
instruction in particular subjects by endowing other depart-
ments. The Science Departments, the History Department,
the Department of Education, and the Carnegie-Millsaps Libra-
ry are, because of their needs, promising fields for a fruitful
investment in Christian Education.
In 1926 the number of women students had increased to
such an extent that it became necessary to provide housing ac-
commodations on the College campus, and the Sullivan House
which had been removed in order to make room for the new
Carnegie-Millsaps Library, was fitted up and equipped for this
purpose. During the session of 1928-29, a second building, a
new apartment house on West street was leased and furnished
as a home for young women. It immediately became appar-
ent, however, that this provision is inadequate and will have
to be enlarged. Plans are now on foot by which it is expected
that adequate provisions will be made for all young women
38 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
now in the College and for those who may enter the Junior or
Senior Class. It will not be possible to admit young women
not residents of Jackson to the Freshman or Sophomore Class.
Since the foundation of the old library had so given away
as to make the building unsafe, the Carnegie Library Board
agreed in 1923 to rebuild the Library on a new site, and to
provide a larger one more nearly adequate to the needs of the
college, which had grown greatly since the original Library
was built. So a new Library costing $60,000.00 became
available in 1925-1926.
In 1926 and again in 1927 the Conferences took action
approving and endorsing the purpose of the College to make a
special appeal for the enlargement and improvement of the
physical equipment. In the spring of 19 2 8 this appeal was
begun and some $268,000 in subscriptions was secured. This
amount included a number of gifts of considerable sums in-
cluding $50,000 from B. B. Jones who had previously given
$20,000 to the endowment, $15,000 from W. M. Buie, whose
previous gifts have amounted to $28,300; and $15,000 from
I. C. Enochs family. At the next Annual Conference, Rev. V.
G. Clifford was appointed as financial commissioner who de-
voted his time to the raising of funds for the completion of
the buildings needed. As a result of the subscriptions already
made, a magnificent science building costing about $180,000
has been erected.
In compliance with a request from the student body the
Board of Trustees, at their annual meeting in June 19 32,
named the new science building Sullivan-Harrell Hall.
Since 1912 Millsaps College has been a member of the
Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. An
impartial committee of the Association made exhaustive in-
quiry into the financial resources of the institution, its courses,
the training of its instructors, and the character of its work,
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 39
and unanimously recommended it for membership. This in-
quiry extended over a year, and no conditions whatever were
imposed for the election of the College, since it had been of
the first rank for some years. Its degrees are recognized by
all institutions of learning as among the best in the land.
The College is also a member of the Association of Ameri-
can Colleges, and of the American Association of Collegiate
Registrars.
The following statement of the resources of the College,
while not inclusive of all sources of its revenue, gives some
idea of the solidity of its foundation, and also furnishes a
guaranty of its perpetuity:
Productive endowment, including reve-
nue producing property % 948,101.54
Unproductive endowment (land) 100,000.00
Buildings 311,000.00
Grounds 227,0 71.18
Books, Equipment, etc 75,000.00
New Construction and Equipment 216,873.29
TOTAL $1,878,046.01
One of the purposes which the College keeps constantly
in view is indicated by the following section of the charter:
"The cost of education shall, as far as practica-
ble, be reduced to the lowest point consistent with
the efficient operation of said College, and every rea-
sonable effort shall be made to bring collegiate edu-
cation within the reach of the poorer classes of the
State."
With a productive endowment of $948,101.54, and build-
ings and grounds worth $829,944.47, it rests on a foundation
which assures its perpetuity. It has the support of a great
religious denomination, yet it is not sectarian in its policy.
It numbers among its patrons representatives of all the Chris-
tian churches.

MULLSAPS COLLEGE 47
GENERAL INFOR>LlTION
Millsaps College is named in honor of Major R. W. Mill-
saps, whose munificent gifts have made the existence of the
institution possible. The College is the property of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, South, and was organized by the con-
current action of the Mississippi and North Mississippi Confer-
ences. It is not sectarian, however, but numbers among its
patrons members of all the Christian denominations.
LOCATION
Jackson, the capital of the state, and the seat of the Col-
lege, is easily accessible by five lines of railway. Thirty pas-
senger trains arrive and depart daily. The College is located
in the northern part of the city on a commanding elevation,
with perfect drainage, and in a beautiful campus of one hun-
dred or more acres. A healthier spot it would be difficult to
find within the limits of the State. Jackson is a city of 48.000
inhabitants, with handsome churches and public buildings,
and is noted for the refinement and intelligence of its people.
Its literary, social and religious advantages are superior.
THE JAMES OBSERVATORY
Millsaps College is prepared to offer excellent advantages
in the study of astronomy. The late Mr. Dan A. James, of
Yazoo City, Mississippi, built an observatory for the College
in memory of his father, Mr. Peter James, and of his brother,
Mr. Samuel James. He also furnished the observatory with a
fine telescope. The class of 1916 donated a fine photographic
lens to the observatory. A two inch prismatic transit by
Gaertner was added to the equipment in 1930.
CARNEGIE IMTLLSAPS LIBRARY
Near the close of the session of 1905-1906, Mr. Andrew
Carnegie offered to give $15,000 for a library building if the
trustees would supply an endowment of equal amount. Major
Millsaps added to his many contributions by giving the full
amount of the endowment.
48 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
The foundations of this handsome building unfortunate-
ly gave way so that it became necessary to rebuild the struc-
ture, and the Carnegie Corporation has generously appro-
priated $50,000.00 for this purpose. The books are cata-
logued fully by the A. L. A. system and are in charge of Mrs.
M. B. Clark and Miss Florence Leech, trained and experienced
librarians.
From time to time additions have been made from the en-
dowment funds and from the Library fees.
In addition to the books thus obtained, the library has
been so fortunate as to secure most of the well selected libra-
ries of the late Dr. C. K. Marshall, John W. Burruss and Rev.
W. G. Millsaps, the entire library of Colonel W. L. Nugent,
besides many volumes from the libraries of ex-Chancellor Ed-
ward Mayes, Dr. A. F. Watkins, and Major R. W. Millsaps.
Dr. J. M. Burton, late professor of Romance Languages, who
died in France in the service of his country on October 5,
1918, generously left to the College his entire Romance li-
brary. This has been appropriately labeled and shelved, and
constitutes a valuable addition to the books on Romance Lan-
guages. The Martha A. Turner Fund, founded by Mrs. J. R.
Bingham, of Carrollton, Mississippi, is used for the purchase
of books in English literature. Through the generosity of
Hon. W. S. F. Tatum a fine collection of books has been built
up for the use of the Department of Religion.
Mrs. Charles B. Galloway made a notable addition to our
collection of valuable books by giving to the College the fine
theological library of the lamented Bishop Charles B. Gallo-
way.
In 19 31 the Carnegie Corporation included the Millsaps
College library in the list of college libraries to which special
donations were made for the purchase of books. A sum of
$10,000 has been allotted to the library to be paid in five an-
nual installments. This fund has already greatly strengthened
the library, especially by making it possible to obtain many
works and sets of books that it would otherwise have been
difficult or impossible to obtain at this time. In the last two
and one-half years, through February of 19 3 3, more than 1,800
books have been added to the library from this source.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 49
The students also have access to the State Library and
the Jackson Public Library, which are unusually complete in
many departments.
RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION
Students will be required to be present at morning wor-
ship in the College Chapel. In this daily service the Faculty
and students come together to hear the reading of the Bible
and to engage in singing and prayer. Students must attend
religious worship at least once on Sunday in one of the
churches of Jackson.
THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
One of the most potent factors in the College for develop-
ing the students into a broader life is the Young Men's Chris-
tian Association. Its policy and aim is to develop the three-
fold nature of the students — the moral, intellectual, and spirit-
ual. It is a well known fact that a student who develops him-
self intellectually, but neglects his spiritual nature, is in no
sense a complete man. Unless one becomes a well-rounded
man, he is not fit to fight the battles of life.
In this connection the association was organized shortly
after the College was founded. It has done as much to mould
character and to hold up a high standard of ideals before the
students as any other department in connection with the Col-
lege. It has been dominated by the double purpose of leading
men to accept Christ and to form such associations as will
guard them against the temptations of college life. The As-
sociation has done much to strengthen the spiritual life and
influence of the College, to promote Christian character and
fellowship and progressive Christian work. It trains its mem-
bers for Christian service and leads them to devote their lives
to the cause of Christ where they can accomplish the most for
the extension of the Kingdom of God. In order to accomplish
this purpose the Association holds weekly meetings on Wed-
nesday evenings. These services are usually conducted by
some of the students, but occasionally by some member of the
Faculty, or by some prominent minister or layman.
50 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Realizing the importance of a young man's choosing his
life work while in college, a series of addresses on "Life
Work" has been arranged and prominent men of each profes-
sion are invited to address the Association from time to time
on their respective professions.
An annual revival is held some time in the year, lasting
more than a week, which results in leading young men to
Christ each year. During the current year a spiritual life con-
ference contributed very much to the religious life of the stu-
dents.
The Association sends yearly a delegation to the South-
ern Students' Conference at Blue Ridge, North Carolina.
Since the ten days of the Convention are assiduously devoted
to discussing Association work and problems, the delegates
always return enthusiastic and zealous for doing Christian
service.
The work of the Association is carried on by the students;
each man has his part to do according to the plan of the organ-
ization. The President, elected by the members, appoints
chairmen of nine committees, each composed of three or more
men. It is the duty of the Publicity Committee to advertise
all meetings, and secure good attendance. The Membership
Committee meets all new students as they arrive, and gives
them any information desired concerning College, boarding
facilities, etc. Afterward this committee calls on each stu-
dent and urges him to become a member of the Association.
The Reception Committee has charge of College Night, and
any other entertainment that the Association may choose to
give during the year. The object of College Night is to make
the students acquainted with one another and to interest the
new man in the different phases of College life. The Em-
ployment Committee assists deserving students in getting em-
ployment for their spare time. The City Mission Committee
has charge of work in different parts of the city. The Devo-
tional Committee provides leaders, and the Music Committee,
whose Chairman is the treasurer of the Association, collects
the annual dues and raises funds sufficient for meeting cur-
rent expenses.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 51
But most important are the Bible Study and Mission
Study Committees. Bible study groups are formed at the dor-
mitories and at the boarding houses. The students engage
in daily Bible reading and meet for one hour each week, for
discussion. The Mission Study Committee arranges courses
in biographies of missionaries in various mission fields and
secures leaders for the various classes. A student Volunteer
Band is organized and is active in preparation for missioB
work. Delegates are sent each year to the Volunteer Con-
vention, and the College is now represented in the foreign
field by a number of efficient missionaries.
The Y. M. C. A. is back of every phase of College life,
and it is expected that every student will identify himself with
the organization.
THE YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTL\N ASSOCIATION
The Young Women's Christian Association plays the same
part in the lives of the young women of the college as is played
by the Y. M. C. A. in the lives of the men. It exerts a pro-
found influence for good on the whole college.
Religious services are held by the Y. W. C. A. each week,
a period being set apart in the college programme of exercises
for that purpose. The Association sends each year a delegate
to Blue Ridge. The girls of the college have in the Y. W. C. A.
all the advantages offered by that organization in the best col-
leges for women.
The Freshman Commission constitutes those who are in
training for position as future officers of the Association.
LITERARY SOCIETIES
Two large halls have been provided for the Literary So-
cieties organized for the purpose of improvement in debate,
declamation, composition and acquaintance with the methods
of deliberative bodies. These societies are conducted by the
students under constitutions and by-laws of their own fram-.
ing. They are named, respectively, the Galloway and the La-
mar Societies, and contribute greatly to the improvement of
their members.
52 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Representatives chosen from the societies engage in in-
tercollegiate debate with teams from the other colleges of the
state and also other institutions. In recent years there have
been debates with Emory University, Birmingham Southern
College, Vanderbilt University, Centenary College, and others.
In 1925-'26 Millsaps debate teams won every one of the six
debates engaged in, and since that time have won a majority
of their contests.
STUDENT PUBLICATIONS
There are two literary publications which have an excel-
lent standing among the student publications of the South,
viz., the Purple and White, the campus weekly, and the Col-
lege annual, the Bobashela.
HONORARY FRATERNITIES
Student leadership in college activities is signalized and
rewarded by election to various honorary fraternities. Liter-
ary ability among the men of the college leads to member-
ship in the Kit-Kat Chapter of the national literary frater-
nity, Sigma Upsilon. Similar ability among the co-eds leads
to membership in Chi Delta Phi, a national literary honor so-
ciety for women. Excellence in scholarship is given recog-
nition by election to Eta Sigma. Pi Kappa Delta recognizes
the leaders in oratory and debate at Millsaps. Student lead-
ership, of v/hatever kind, is recognized by membership in
Omicron Delta Kappa, an intercollegiate leadership fraternity.
Membership in this organization is regarded as a great honor.
Excellence in dramatics at Millsaps, as manifested by partici-
pation in the dramas presented by the Millsaps Players, leads
to association with Alpha Psi Omega, the youngest honorary
fraternity on the campus and one of the livest. Such honors
as those mentioned above are much sought after in our insti-
tution, and cause students to attain a high degree of excel-
lence in their chosen fields of student activity.
MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS
For a number of years there have been two excellent glee
clubs, the men's glee club under the direction of Dr. A. P.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 53
Hamilton, and the women's glee club under the direction of
Miss Magnolia Simpson. The women's glee club is now under
the direction of Mr. Alvin J. King. An excellent band has been
organized, the student body raising some $1,200.00 for instru-
ments and equipment, and it has made rapid progress. The
students of the Fine Arts Department have organized the
Beethoven Club, and presented some excellent programs,
privately and publicly.
Several other voluntary organizations, such as the Science
Club, and the Classical Club, give expressions to collateral
scholarly interests outside the regular curriculum.
ATHTjETICS
Millsaps College is a member of the Southern Intercolle-
giate Athletic Association, and the Dixie Conference, and takes
part in all intercollegiate games. Games and sports of all
kinds are under the special direction of the Geutral Athletic
Association, a student organization, whose object is to pro-
mote this class of physical exercise. The faculty exercises a
general advisory control endeavoring to foresee and avert dan-
gerous tendencies or excess in physical exercises while giving
to the students as far as possible entire liberty of manage-
ment; a strict limit is placed upon the character of the inter-
collegiate games and the number played away from the Col-
lege.
The Athletic Director has supervision of all intercolle-
giate teams and conducts mass games and interclass leagues
that enlist a large percentage of the students in some form
of active participation in athletics. For those who report
regularly two hours a week for exercise, under the instruc-
tion of the Athletic Director, a scholastic credit of one session-
hour is granted.
BOARDING FACILITIES
Students of Millsaps College, as a rule arrange for their
living in one of two ways.
1. There are seven small cottages, in which students can
room at reduced cost. These cottages are provided with the
54 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
same furniture provided for dormitory rooms. The cottages
are admirably situated on the eastern side of the campus. The
rooms are sufficiently large to accommodate two students
each. The room rental per student in the cottages is $20.00
per year in advance or $12.50 per half year in advance. Furni-
ture, lights, fuel, and water are furnished expcept to families
using apartments. Students wishing to engage a room in one
of the cottages should write Mr. V. B. Hathorn, at the college.
2. In the dormitories the expense will be approximate-
ly $18.00 to $21.00 per month including room, light, steam
heat, board, matron's services, and hospital facilities. The
dining room is conducted on the cooperative plan. During
1931-,32 the cost amounted to approximately $15.00 per
month. Students who room in the cottages take their
meals at the college dormitory. There are Christian homes
where students may get rooms without board. In such cases
the students may get meals at the college dormitory or at pri-
vate homes.
3. Since the formation of the Millsaps System and the
recent development of a number of excellent State Junior col-
leges in Mississippi, the number of women students in the
junior and senior classes of Millsaps has increased to such an
extent that the College has provided living quarters for women.
This is at present done in a number of cottage homes providing
accommodations for twelve to fifteen young women. These
are comfortably furnished and in each is provided reception
rooms and apartment for a house mother. All non resident
women students will be required to reside in the home provid-
ed by the College and to conform to the regulations of the dean
of women. Room rent in these homes is $63.00 per year or
$35.00 per half year and board $18.00 per month.
THE DORMITORIES
Founder's Hall is a three story structure, beautifully lo-
cated on the east campus facing State Street. At the South
end of the campus and overlooking the city with the beautiful
dome of the New Capitol in the foreground are Burton Hall
and Galloway Hall. These handsome buildings with their
columned porticoes are connected by a colonnade.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 55
The great dining room is unusually fine and is separated
from the large kitchens by a commodious serving room. A
feature which will be greatly appreciated by the students is
a large common room where the boys may gather for a social
hour.
Millsaps now is able to offer dormitories equal in all their
appointments to the best to be found in any institution in this
section. Each student should bring with him four sheets for
a single bed, blankets, or quilts, a pillow with cases, and six
towels.
No change of rooms will be allowed except by permission
of the President.
Early reservation should be made if a student wishes to
be assured of a room. A deposit of $5.00 must accompany a
request for a reservation. Students entering College for the
first time are entitled to reserve a room upon payment of the
Registration fee of .$2 5.00.
A home for young women on the College campus under
the supervision of the Matron and the Dean of Women has
been provided and newly furnished, and adequate provision
will be made to accommodate all out of town young women
who are accepted.
MEMORIAL COTTAGES
The friends of the late Rev. John A. Ellis, of the Missis-
sippi Conference, and the Rev. J. H. Brooks, of North Mis-
sissippi Conference, have built two cottages for the accommo-
dation of students. These homes are named respectively, the
John A. Ellis, and J. H. Brooks Cottage.
MATRICLLATIOX
The various departments are under the direction of pro-
fessors who are responsible for the systems and methods pur-
sued.
The session begins on the second Wednesday of Septem-
ber and continues with recess of about ten days at Christmas,
56 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
until the first Tuesday in June. The first two days of the
session are given to registration and all students, both old and
new, are required during that time to place their names upon
the books of the College and the rolls of their respective
classes. Lecture courses begin Friday, and absences will be
recorded against any student not present from the opening
lecture of each course.
EXA]VnNATIONS
The examinations in each class are held in writing. Oral
examinations are held in some departments but they are aux-
iliary to the written examinations, which in conjunction with
the class standing, as determined by the daily work of the
student, are the main tests of the student's proficiency.
REPORTS
Reports are sent at the close of each nine weeks to the
parent or guardian of each student. These reports give the
number of excused and unexcused absences from lectures,,
and indicate, as nearly as practicable, the nature of the prog-
ress made by him in his work at the College.
REGISTRATION OF NEW STUDENTS
Applicants seeking admission to the College for the first
time should present themselves to the Registrar of the College
at his office in the main building promptly at 9:00 o'clock on
the opening day, September 13th. In each instance a certifi-
cate of good moral character, signed by the proper official of
the institution attended during the previous session, or by
some persons of known standing, must be sent to the Regis-
trar at least two weeks before the opening of the session.
Each candidate who satisfies these requirements and those
for admission by certificate or examination will be furnished
with a card containing the courses offered, from which he
may select those which he proposes to pursue during the ses-
sion. The card must then be carried to the Bursar, who will,
after the College fees have been paid to him, sign the card.
Registration is incomplete unless the registration card is
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 57
signed by both the Registrar and the Bursar. On payment of
these fees the applicant will be admitted to classes.
DELAYED REGISTRATION
Students are not permitted to delay their registration
through carelessness or for inadequate reasons. Any student,
new or old, who fails to present himself for registration dur-
ing the first two days of the session will be admitted to regis-
tration only upon the consent of the President, and will be
required to pay a special fee of $3.00.
RESIDENCE, ATTENDANCE, AND GRADES
The Academic year begins on the morning of the second
Wednesday of September and continues for thirty-six weeks.
Thanksgiving Day is a holiday, and there is a Christmas re-
cess of about ten days.
Attendance is required of each student throughout the
session, with the exception of the days above indicated, unless
he has received permission to be temporarily absent, or to
withdraw before its close. Leave of absence is granted by the
Faculty or President for sufficient reasons, and must in every
case be obtained in advance. While in residence each student
is required to attend regularly all lectures and other pre-
scribed exercises and all examinations in the courses which he
pursues, (unless excused for cause), and in every way to con-
form to the regulations of the College.
Absence from the College is permitted only upon the
leave of the Dean, obtained in every case in advance. But
leave of absence for purposes of accompanying the athletic
teams, debating teams and all other recognized clubs will
not be granted except to officers and members of the organi-
zations.
Absence of athletic teams and other student organiza-
tions is provided for by Faculty regulations.
Absence from any class is not excused except for sickness
or like providential cause. But absences, whether excused or
58 MILLSA.PS COLLEGE
not, from one-fourth or more of the recitation period in any
term will result in proportionate decrease of credits allowed.
Absence from examinations will not be excused except
for sickness on day of examination, attested by a physician's
certificate, or other cause which the Faculty by special order
may approve. An unexcused absence or presentation of an
unpledged paper is counted as a total failure in the examina-
tion in which it occurs. A student whose absence from ex-
amination is excused is admitted to a special examination
ordered by the Faculty.
Change of Classes.
Students cannot change classes or drop classes or take up
new classes except by the consent of the Faculty.
The grade of the student in any class, either for a semes-
ter or for the session is determined by the combined class
standing and the result of examination. The daily average
counts 66-2/3% and the examination 33-1/3% of the grade
for the semester. If the combined grade is below 70 the stu-
dent is required to repeat the course, except in courses where
the grades for the two semesters may be averaged.
Those reported delinquent in two or more subjects at any
faculty meeting are required to report to Coaching School from
7:30 to 9:30 in the evening of the following two weeks.
Class standing in any course is determined by the regu-
larity of attendance of the student upon lectures and labora-
tory or other similar exercises where included in the course
in question and by the faithful performance of his work as
indicated by the answers when questioned, by written exer-
cises, note books, the faithful performance of laboratory or
other similar work, etc. Students are regarded by the facul-
ty as under the law of honor in matters affecting class stand-
ing or in examinations. The grade for passing in any course
is 70 per cent. For quality requirements see page 68.
Withdrawals .
Voluntary withdrawals from the College require the writ-
ten consent of the Faculty or President.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 59
Enforced withdrawal is inflicted by the Faculty for ha-
bitual delinquency in class, habitual idleness or any other
fault which prevents the student from fulfilling the purpose
for which he should have come to College.
The College reserves the right to cancel the registration
of any student at any time. In such a case, the prorata por-
tion of board, room rent, and tuition will be returned.
Extension Work.
It is the purpose of the Extension work as far as possible
to make the resources of the college available for people in
their homes. Many who aspire to self-culture have not the
means or the Inclination to come to college for it.
The College has a valuable equipment of books, buildings,
and trained instructors. It is the privilege of the people to
call for such service as the College can render; it is the duty
and privilege of the College to devise ways and means for
placing its service at the disposal of the people.
AID TO METHODIST MINISTERS
Library Extension SeiTice. — One of the most effectire
ways in which we are serving the ministers of Mississippi is in
placing the books of our libiary subject to their call. We not
only do this free of charge but we pay postage one way on any
book that may be ordered from us. Books may be kept out
for the period of one month.
AID TO HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS AND TEACHERS
Debates and Public Speaking. — The College provides as-
sistance for high school pupils in the selection of speeches and
in the preparation of debates.
Lectures and Commencement Orators. — Members of the
College faculty are available for lectures and public speeches
on commencement anniversaries, and other public occasions.
Judges and Referees for High School Contests. — On short
notice the College can provide properly qualified judges and

60 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
AID TO CLUB WOMEN
Lectures and Advice. — Members of the College faculty
from time to time lecture before women's clubs. We are in

CONDUCT
The rules of the College require from every student de-
corous, sober and upright conduct as long as he remains a
member of the College, whether he be within its precincts or
not.
They require from the student regular and diligent appli-
cation to his studies, and regular attendance upon chapel.
Drinking, gambling, and dissoluteness are strictly forbid-
den, and any student found guilty of them is punished by sus-
pension or expulsion.
Firearms.
The keeping of firearms by the students is strictly for-
bidden.
Visiting the City at Night.
Students who are delinquent in their studies are forbid-
den to visit the town, or other places away from the College at
night, without permission from the President.
Delinquency.
Reports are made each two weeks of all those failing dur-
ing the preceding two weeks in each subject. The names of
those delinquent are posted and notice is sent to the parent or
guardian.
Those students who do not pass in as many as three sub-
jects during a semester, except Freshmen, who must pass two
subjects and make 60 in a third for the first semester shall
be dismissed from College.
Demerit System.
1. The demerit system is used. Demerits are incurred by
unexcused absence from class, chapel, and for other vio-
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 61
lations of the college regulations, such as hazing and oth-
er offences.
2. When a student has received an aggregate of thirty-five
demerits he is called before the Faculty and warned. A
notice of the same will be sent to his parent or guardian.
3. When the aggregate of demerits reaches sixty-five, he re-
ceives a second warning, and a second notice is sent to his
parent or guardian.
i. When the aggregate of demerits reaches one hundred, he
is dismissed from the College.
EXPENSES
Parents desiring to settle all College bills, such as board,
etc., through the Treasurer may do so by simply sending
check to Mr. V. B. Hathorn, Bursar, and specifying what the
enclosure Is intended to cover.

copal Church, South, or of superannuated or active minis-
ters of any Christian denomination, and young men prepar-
ing for the ministry may receive tuition free in the academic
department, but are expected to pay all other fees. Any
student, wishing exemption from the payment of the tuition
fee upon this ground, will be required to present a certifi-
cate from the Quarterly Conference or some other ecclesias-
tical body showing that he is recognized by his Church as a
student preparing for the ministry.
COLLEGE FEES
NOTE: — The amount to be paid for tuition varies accord-
ing to the scholastic success of the student during the preced-
ing school session or year. Those who make an average grade
of 90 or more, will pay tuition at the rate of $75.00 per year.
Those whose average is 75 to 89, inclusive, will pay tuition at
the rate of $115.00 per year. Those whose average is below
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 63
75 will pay tuition at the rate of $140.00 per year. Transfer
students will also pay tuition at the above rates.
The scale of tuition payments for first year or freshman
students will be based upon their scholastic success in the last
two years of their high school course in an accredited high
school. The applicant whose average grade is 25% more than
the pass grade in his school will be entitled to the lowest
rate of tuition, $75.00 per year, provided he furnishes a cer-
tificate from his high school principal that he ranks in the
highest one-fifth of his class, and also provided that his rank in
the placement tests given by the college is in the highest quin-
tile or one-fifth of the class. Applicants whose average grade
in the last lull year of high school is 8 % higher than the pass
grade will be entitled to make the average tuition payment of
$115.00 on the same terms and with the same provisions as
above. Applicants whose average grade in their last full year
of high school is less than 8 % higher than the pass grade of
their high school will be charged the highest rate for tuition,
i.e., $140.00 per year.
ILLUSTRATION: If the pass grade of a school is 70,
then the average grade which entitles to the lowest tuition
($75.00) is 88, if the pass grade is 75, then the average must
be 9 4. Similarly, if the pass grade is 70, the student falling
below 76 will pay the highest tuition, $140,00; if the pass
grade is 75, then the student with an average grade below 81
will pay the highest tuition, $140.00.

A full outline of the required and the elective studies of-
fered for the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of
Science is given in the pages following this announcement.
One hundred and twenty-eight semester hours are re-
quired for graduation both for the B.A. and B.S. degrees.
Specific courses are prescribed in the Freshman and the Soph-
omore classes, including alternative courses offered in ancient
and modern languages. All the courses in the Senior and
almost all in the Junior class are elective.
The usual course is 32 semester hours for each year.
Not fewer than 2 4 semester hours nor more than 38 semester
hours may be taken in a year, unless by express permission of
the President and Faculty.
A student who makes a grade of 70% in a subject will
be advanced in that subject, but a certain number of quality
points is requisite for advancement from one class to the next
higher class. The student must have six quality points to be
classed as a Sophomore, 22 to be classed as a Junior, 4 2 to be
classed as a Senior, and 64 for graduation. The completion
of any college course with a grade of 80% for one semester
shall entitle a student to one quality point for each semester
hour, and the completion of a course with a grade of 90% for
the semester shall entitle a student to two quality points for
each semester hour.
HONORS
A student who has earned 160 quality points during hla
course shall be graduated with "honors"; one who has earned
248 quality points shall be graduated with "high honors."

I. DEPARTMENT OF ANCIENT LANGUAGES
PROFESSOR HAMILTON
PROFESSOR KEY
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR HUDDLESTON *
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR SIMPSON
It is believed that the mastery of these highly inflected
languages will effect the purposes aimed at in education in
the following ways:
Constant drill in the processes of correlation, comparison,
discrimination and classification of the phenomena of lan-
guage is required, both in the study of inflection and syntax
and in translation. This drill affords a most rigorous exer-
cise in correct scientific method and produces habits and re-
flexes of accuracy, efficiency and system.
A first hand acquaintance with the language and modes
of expression of the ancients and with the evolution of literary
forms lays open a field of knowledge that is essential to a full
understanding of modern life and literature.
Intimate contact with the very words which express the
best ideals and aspirations of those great spirits whose influ-
ence has been most abiding and formative in our world should
shape the character to fine and worthy purposes.

The Department of Chemistry is now well provided for in
the Sullivan-Harrell Hall, a new and thoroughly modern sci-
ence hall, which was recently built as a gift from citizens of
Jackson and Hinds County at a cost of approximately $200,-
000.00 There are two lecture rooms supplied with tablet-arm
chairs fixed in elevated rows, improved lecture desks with
Alberene stone tops and removable down-draft hoods, sliding
blackboards with separate control for lighting, and other con-
veniences. There are four large laboratories, one for general
chemistry provided with five double desks eighteen feet long to
accommodate 140 students in three sections (and piping
roughed-in for two more desks as needed), one for organic and
qualitative work provided with five double desks eighteen feet
long to accommodate seventy individuals (provision being
made for expansion), one for quantitative analysis equipped for
fourteen students, (expansion provided for), and one for in-
dustrial chemistry. There are three smaller laboratories for
physical chemistry, nitrogen determinations, and research, re-
spectively, besides six small laboratory rooms for individual
and specialized work. All desks have Alberene tops and
sinks, with lead trough inclined in one direction the entire
length, and are supplied with an adequate number of outlets
for water, gas, compressed air, and 110-volt electric current.
All laboratory hoods are of the high velocity and open-
type made of Transite board on Alberene shelf supported on
steel pipe frame, and range from four to eight feet in length.
Each hood is provided with outlets for water, gas, compressed
air, and 3 0-ampere electric current, with separate control fc
lighting fixture attached to ceiling of hood.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 9 1
All horizontal drain pipes from chemical laboratories and
stockrooms are of Duriron. All floors are of "mastic," and
lecture-room ceilings are of Masonite board which eliminates
practically all echo.
Three stockrooms, one for apparatus, one for inorganic
and one for organic chemicals, are located on the ground floor
convenient to a freight elevator. Two departmental stock-
rooms are located conveniently, one on the main floor and
connecting by service window directly w^ith the laboratory for
general chemistry, and the other immediately above with serv-
ice window connecting directly with the qualitative and or-
ganic laboratory. The weighing room is located between the
laboratories for quantitative and physical chemistry.
Distilled water is supplied by gravity through block-tin
pipe to laboratories on each floor and to lecture table.
The seven motors and fans that produce the ventilation
for hoods and chemical laboratories are located in the attic,
each motor controlling a separate group of hoods and its oper-
ation indicated at each control switch by a pilot-light signal.
The head of the department is provided with a well equip-
ped office and adjoining private laboratory, which latter con-
nects directly with his lecture room.
The work in this department includes one year of Chem-
istry required of candidates for B.S. degree, besides other
courses open to all students who have completed chemistry
11-12, or 21, 22.
The subjects are taught by recitations and lectures and
work which each student must perform in the laboratory.
The laboratories are kept well equipped with apparatus neces-
sary to the correct appreciation of the science. Each student
has his own desk and apparatus, and is closely supervised, so
that he may not only gain a true idea of the substance under
inspection but also train his hands to be careful to the smallest
detail, and the eye observant of the slightest phenomenon,
and habits of neatness, skill and economy. Each student will
be expected to keep accurate notes. In all courses attention

11, but for the benefit of those students who have not been able
to make the required preparation in this subject, a preparatory
course (Course A) is offered. This course, if taken under the
supervision of the College and not used as an entrance unit,
may be used as Junior or Senior elective. When thus used
it counts three hours toward graduation. All classes in Ger-
man meet three times a week, unless otherwise specified. For
entrance Course A will count as two units, provided the student
makes a grade of not less than 80.

Spanish may be substituted for Greek in the B.A. course. In
the B.S. course, modern languages may be substituted for
Latin, classes in the three languages offered being inter-
changeable, hour for hour. But a student should consult the
professors in charge before so planning his course as to in-
clude more than two modern languages. Any course not oth-
erwise counted may be used as an elective.

In the courses in History two things will be kept in view.
Students will be reauired to acquaint themselves with the sig-
nificant facts in the development of the nations studied, and
to learn why these facts are considered significant. As far as
possible, the causal connection between historical events will
be indicated, and emphasis will be laid on the idea that his-
tory is a record of the continuous development of the human
race, whose growing self-consciousness manifests itself in the
progressive organization of its moral and intellectual ideals
into laws and customs.
In order to understand each people or nation studied, ac-
count will be taken of its literature, its racial composition, its
religious and social institutions, its economic condition, and
the organization of its government.
11. History of Europe 378-1776.
In this course an attempt will be made to show that the
problems and ideal of modern nations grow out of their
history. This will be done as a preparation for the study
of the governmental institutions of our own and other
countries, and as the basis for a correct understanding of
the questions now engaging civilized nations. Required
in Freshman year for B.S. students. Required in either
Freshman or Sophomore year for B.A. students.

* X. THE DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
PROFESSOR LIN
The courses in Philosophy are designed to give an intelli-
gent view of the constitution of the mind, and to indicate the
conditions of all valid thought. Only what is fundamental
will be considered.
In Logic both deductive and inductive logic will be given,
but neither course will receive credit for graduation unless it
is supplemented by the other course in this subject. In the
History of Philosophy a comprehensive view will be given of
the results attained by the greatest thinkers who have at-
tempted to frame a consistent theory of the material and the
spiritual world. One course in pre-christian ethics will be
given, and one in the ethics of recent times. As in Logic,
both courses must be taken in order to receive credit for either
looking to graduation. It is recommended that Logic be tak-
en before either Ethics or the History of Philosophy is at-
tempted.

II, 12. Physical Training for Men. The requirements in
physical work are designed to cover the whole school year at
the rate of two hours a week for each Freshman. Although
this work is compulsory, considerable freedom in selection is
offered. The sole aim is to create a healthy desire to engage
in some form of recreation, under proper supervision, so as to
benefit the student morally, mentally, and physically. This
exercise takes form of competitive games in order to arouse
the proper interest, develop team work, teach initiative,
strengthen the morale, teach true sportsmanship, and create a
life-long interest in some form of sport which will benefit the
student in after life. An idea is also gained as to the natural
ability of each man and quite frequently students discover
that they are really better in athletics than they thought they
were and are encouraged to try for the varsity teams.
Physical Education for Women. General gymnastics (light
apparatus) ; rhythmic plays and games. Tumbling, Pyramid-
building, etc; developmental and corrective gymnastics. Spring
Festival. Point system used. Monograms awarded. Re-
quired of all Freshmen. 1 hour credit.
21, 22. Coaching for Men. In order to better equip those
students who expect to combine coaching with teaching a
course in the theory of all major sports will be offered. This
course will comprise football, baseball, basketball and track.
Two hours a week of classroom work will be given, which will
also include a number of lectures.
In football, subjects such as the equipment and outfitting
of players, training units, practice methods, various offensive
and defensive methods, the forward pass, trick plays, general-
118 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
ship and field tactics, and numerous other important items
will be given consideration.
In baseball, individual play and team play will be taken
up in detail. Offense and defense will be thoroughly dis-
cussed; also batting, base running, position play, strategy, etc.
Basketball will include such topics as goal throwing, pass-
ing, guarding, dribbling, blocking, plays from center and plays
from out of bounds. Various styles of offense and defense
will be discussed.

MR. MOORE
MR. MANSELL
The aim of this Department is to provide an adequate
and varied series of courses of instruction in Religion, includ-
ing Bible and Religious Education, in harmony with the best
methods and ideals of education in the general field of reli-
gion and true to the spirit and genius of Methodism.
The courses are designed to meet the curriculum require-
ments of the College, for one required course in Religion, and
as wide a range of elective courses as possible for students
majoring or electing additional work in the Department. The
vocations of the Church have been kept in mind in offering
these courses, and also its avocational interests. The modern
programme of the Church makes heavy demands upon its lay
workers for trained service. These courses, therefore, are
available and valuable alike for students interested in profes-
sional or lay service in the Church.
Millsaps students who are qualified are in demand in the
summer for Cokesbury Training School work in both the Mis-
sissippi Conferences. This Department seeks to co-operate
with the Conference and General Boards in this important
work and offers credit courses for most of the requirements.
Upon completion of twenty-four semester hours in Reli-
gion the Joint Diploma in Christian Education is given by the
College in co-operation with the General Board of Christian
Education of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
Students transferring to Millsaps from other schools and
admitted to advanced standing, but who may lack the six se-
mester hours required in Religion, may be permitted to take
either Religion 11 and 12, as required of Freshmen or Soph-
omores, or they may elect the required number of hours in

charge. Religion 41, 42 and 61, may be counted toward a
major in the Department of Education.

be taken in either Freshman or Sophomore year, and may be
begun in either first or second semester or possibly in summer
school. These two courses are pre-requisite to all other

GENERAL STATEMENT
The Summer School of Millsaps College for 19 33 will
open on June 6 and will continue for nine weeks.
The Summer School is planned especially for college stu-
dents and for teachers who desire further professional work
or regular college work. Teachers may secure renewal of li-
cense by attendance for nine weeks. Entrance units and tran-
scripts will be required of all new students.
In opening its doors to the teachers of the State, Mill-
saps College feels that it is serving a long felt need in that
some provision should be made at the Capital of the State for
teachers to spend a few weeks during their vacation and at the
same time take such work as they may find in the list of
courses.
All the advantages of the other summer schools will be
afforded in the way of renewal and extension of license pro-
vided by the State Department of Education.
College graduates who lack the required number of hours
in Education will find, here, an opportunity to make up some
of those hours. Students with two years of college training
may, with six hours in Education, be granted a temporary
State License without examination by the State Board of Ex-
aminers.
146 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
The amount of work that a student may take will be lim-
ited to three subjects with a total credit of nine semester
hours.
There will be a series of lectures by special lecturers from
time to time. Announcement will be made beforehand.
The tuition fee will be $35.00 and a matriculation fee of
$5.00 will be charged. Board will be $25.00 or $26.00 per
month, or at the rate of $8.00 per week. For a period of less
than a week the rate will be $1.50 per day. Science fee,
$10.00. Library fee $3.00. Science breakage fee, $2.00 for
each course, unused portion returned. Those who expect to
live on the campus will bring with them a pillow, bed-linen,
towels, and toilet articles. The dormitories and dining hall
will be open on the evening of June 5. Fees and board pay-
able strictly in advance.
Those expecting to enter the Summer School should make
reservation of room by sending to the Bursar a deposit of
$5.00.

148 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Whitworth College, located in the beautiful little city of
Brookhaven, has a long and honorable history in the educa-
tion of Mississippi women. Traditions of piety, learning, and
culture of more than a half century enshrine the campus and
historic community. The college may be reached by the Illi-
nois Central, the Mississippi Central and the Brookhaven and
Pearl River Railroads. Situated in the most elevated region
of southern Mississippi (489.5 feet above sea level) the com-
munity has an enviable record for health, while at the same
time the mild southern climate renders out door exercise pos-
sible and enjoyable at all seasons. The college occupies a
beautiful campus where nine buildings, six of them built of
the famous Brookhaven brick, constitute the most complete
physical plant of any woman's college in the State.
With this admirable physical setting, the college is now
excellently equipped in plant, faculty, and academic organiza-
tion for thorough work. In accordance with the action taken
by the Mississippi Conference on the fourteenth day of Novem-
ber, 1927, the physical plant and all the resources of the col-
lege have been taken over by the Board of Trustees of Mill-
saps College and Whitworth College is now being operated as
a coordinate Junior College Division of the Millsaps Collegiate
system. In 1927, the Association of Colleges and Secondary
Schools of the Southern States admitted Whitworth College to
full membership. The college is also a member of the South-
ern Association of Colleges for Women and of the American
Association of Junior Colleges. The courses of study for the
Freshman and Sophomore years are the same as those offered
in the Freshman and Sophomore years of Millsaps College as
indicated on page 68 of this catalogue. A maximum of three
year hours in home economics and three year hours in fine
arts may, however, be counted toward the bachelor's degree.
Other courses, not leading to the B.A. or B.S. degree, are of-
fered in home economics, in fine arts and in education. Those
completing these courses will be awarded a certificate of grad-
uation. Young women who wish to work towards the Mill-
saps B.A. or B.S. degree will be enrolled in Whitworth Col-
lege for the first two years of the course.
MILLSAPS COLLEGE 149
