HISTORY 

The  Charter  of  Millsaps  College,  which  was  granted  Feb- 
ruary 21,  1890,  reads  as  follows: 

AN  ACT  to  incorporate  Millsaps  College. 

Section  1.  Be  it  enacted  by  the  Legislature  of  the  Stat© 
of  Mississippi,  That  John  J.  Wheat,  Samuel  M.  Thames, 
Thomas  J.  Newell  and  Rufus  M.  Standifer,  of  the  North  Mis- 
sissippi Conference  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South, 
and  Garvin  D.  Shands,  David  L.  Sweatman,  James  B.  Streater 
and  John  Trice,  lay  members  of  said  church  within  bounds  of 
said  Conference,  and  Thomas  L.  Mellen,  Warren  C.  Black, 
Alexander  F.  Watkins  and  Charles  G.  Andrews,  members  of 
the  Mississippi  Conference  of  said  church,  and  Marion  M. 
Evans,  Luther  Sexton,  William  L.  Nugent  and  Reuben  W. 
Millsaps,  of  Jackson,  lay  members  of  said  church,  within  the 
bounds  of  said  Mississippi  Conference,  and  Bishop  Charles  B. 
Galloway,  be  and  they  are  hereby  constituted  a  body  corporate 
and  politic  by  and  under  the  name  and  style  of  Millsaps  Col- 
lege, and  by  that  name  they  and  their  successors  may  sue  and 
be  sued,  plead  and  be  impleaded,  contract  and  be  contracted 
with,  and  have  a  common  seal  and  break  the  same  at  pleasure, 
and  may  accept  donations  of  real  and  personal  property  for 


24  MILLSAPS   COLLEGE 

the  benefit  of  the  College  hereafter  to  be  established  by  them, 
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, 
resignation  or  removal  of  said  Galloway,  or  his  permanent 
physical  disability  to  discharge  the  duties  of  his  office,  the  said 
Trustees  may  elect  their  President  and  prescribe  his  duties, 
powers  and  term  of  office. 

Sec.  3.  That  the  said  Trustees  shall,  before  the  meeting 
of  said  Conference  next  before  the  expiration  of  the  term  of 
office  of  any  of  their  number,  notify  the  secretary  of  said  Con- 
ferences thereof,  and  the  vacancies  shall  be  filled  by  said  Con- 
ferences in  such  a  way  and  at  such  time  as  they  may  deter- 
mine, and  the  persons  so  selected  shall  succeed  to  the  office, 
place,  jurisdiction  and  powers  of  the  Trustees  whose  terms  of 
office  have  expired.      And  the  said  Corporation  and  the  Col- 


MILLSAPS  COLLEGE  25 

lege  established  by  it  shall  be  subject  to  the  visitorial  powers 
of  said  Conferences  at  all  times,  and  the  said  College,  its 
property  and  effects  shall  be  the  property  of  said  Church  un- 
der the  special  patronage  of  said  Conferences. 

Sec.  4.  That  the  said  Trustees,  when  organized  as  here- 
inoefore  directed,  shall  be  known  by  the  corporate  name  set 
out  in  the  first  section  of  this  Act,  and  all  money,  promissory 
notes  and  evidence  of  debt  heretofore  collected  under  the  di- 
rection of  said  Conference  for  said  College  shall  be  turned 
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 
establish  this  College,  and  to  purchase  grounds  not  to  exceed 
one  hundred  acres  as  a  building  site  and  campus  therefor,  and 
erect  thereon  such  buildings,  dormitories  and  halls  as  they 
may  think  expedient  and  proper  to  subserve  the  purposes  of 
their  organization  and  the  best  interest  of  said  institution,  and 
they  may  invite  propositions  from  any  city  or  town  or  individ- 
ual in  the  State  for  such  grounds,  and  may  accept  donations 
or  grants  of  land  for  the  site  of  said  institution. 

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 
shall  be  exempt  from  all  State,  County  and  Municipal  taxa- 
tion so  long  as  the  said  College  shall  be  kept  open  and  main- 
tained for  the  purpose  contemplated  by  this  Act,  and  no  longer. 

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 
to  year,  and  their  advice  in  that  behalf  taken,  and  every  rea- 
sonable effort  shall  be  made  to  bring  a  collegiate  education 
within  reach  and  ability  of  the  poorer  classes  of  the  State. 


2  6  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.  Nugent  and  Dr.  Luther 
Sexton. 

On  December  12,  1888,  the  North  Mississippi  Conference 
met  at  Starkville,  Mississippi,  Bishop  C.  B.  Galloway  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  27 

"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,  18  89.  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, 1R89,  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 


28  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 
$36,000,  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 
1890  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  29 

BISHOP    CHARLES    B.    GALLOWAY,    President 

REV.  W.  C.   BLACK,  D.D.  REV.   S.   M.   THAMES

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  1896  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. 


30  MILLSAPS   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  1895-1896 
by  the  generosity  of  Major  Millsaps,  who  gave  Webster  Science 
Hall.  In  1901  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  19  02,  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  19  0  6  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  31 

structure  had   been  replaced   by  a  far   more  commodious  and 
imposing  administration  building. 

At  the  decease  of  Major  R.  W.  Millsaps  in  1916,  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  1921  Mr.  W. 
S.  F.  Tatum,  a  generous  layman  of  Hattiesburg,  donated 
1100,000  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  19  23  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  19  28-29,  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 


82  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  19  27  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  1932, 
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, 


I 


MILLSAPS   COLLEGE  33 

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 $  921,601.82 

Unproductive   endowment    (land) 100,000.00 

Buildings    506,898.91 

Grounds 127,071.18 

Books,   Equipment,   etc 82,191.58 

Nev7  Construction  and  Equipment  13,740.80 

TOTAL  $1,7  51,504.29 

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  $921,601.82,  and  build- 
ings and  grounds  worth  $633,970.09,  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.

MILLS APS  COLLEGE  41 

GENERAL  I]VFOR»L4.TION 

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  19  30. 

CARNEGIE   MILLSAPS    LIBRARY 

Near  the  close  of  the  session  of  190  5-1906,  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. 


42  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 
three  and  one-half  years,  through  January,  1934,  more  than 
2,500  books  have  been  added  to  the  library  from  this  source. 


MILLSAPS   COLLEGE  43 

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. 


44  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 conducted  by  Rev.  R.  M.  Hunt  contributed  very  much 
to  the  religious  life  of  the  students. 

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  46 

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  missiop 
v/ork.  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  w^ill  identify  himself  with 
the  organization. 

THE   YOUNG   WOMEN'S    CHRISTIAN   ASSOCIATION 

Tie  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  :hat  purpose.  The  Association  sends  each  year  a  delegate 
to  Hue  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 
trtining  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 
ol  deliberative  bodies.  These  societies  are  conducted  by  the 
students  under  constitutions  and  by-laws  of  their  own  fram- 
ii^.  They  are  named,  respectively,  the  Galloway  and  the  La- 
nar  Societies,  and  contribute  greatly  to  the  improvement  of 
tleir  members. 


46  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  19  25-'2  6  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  signalizsd  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  ieads 
to  membership  in  Chi  Delta  Phi,  a  national  literary  honoi  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  whatever  kind,  is  recognized  by  membership  In 
Omicron  Delta  Kappa,  an  intercollegiate  leadership  fraternity. 
Membership  in  this  organization  is  regarded  as  a  great  hono:. 
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  honois 
as  those  mentioned  above  are  much  sought  after  in  our  insti- 
tution, and  cause  students  to  attain  a  high  degree  of  exce- 
lence  in  their  chosen  fields  of  student  activity. 

MUSICAL   ORGANIZATIONS 

For  a  number  of  years  there  have  been  two  excellent  glej 
clubs,  the  men's  glee  club  under  the  direction  of  Dr.  A,  F. 


MLLLSAPS   COLLEGE  47 

Hamilton,  and  the  women's  glee  club  uuder  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. 

ATHLETICS 

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  General  Athletic 
Association,  a  student  organization,  v/hose  object  is  to  pro- 
mote this  class  ol"  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  av/ay  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 


48  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 
1932-33  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  DORIVUTORIES 

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. 


MILLS APS   COLLEGE  49 

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 
application  fee  of  $15.00. 

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. 

MATRICUIjATION 

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, 


60  MILLSAPS  COLLEGE 

until  the  first  Tuesday  in  June.  The  first  two  days  of  the 
session  are  given  to  registration  and  ail  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. 

EXAMINATIONS 

The  examinations  in  each  class  are  held  in  v/riting.  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. 

At  the  end  of  the  four  years'  course  a  comprehensive 
examination  is  given  in  the  student's  major  field. 

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  12th.  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 


MILLS APS   COLLEGE  51 

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- 
"^cribed  exercises  and  ail  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 


52  MILLSAPS  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  tv/o  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  69. 

AVITHDRAWALS 

Voluntary  withdrawals  from  the  College  require  the  writ- 
ten consent  of  the  Faculty  or  President. 


MILLSAPS   COLLEGE  53 

Enforced  withdrawal  is  inflicted  by  the  Faculty  for  ha- 
bitual delinquency  in  class,  habitual  idleness  or  any  other 
fault  which  prevents  th-e  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. 

AID  TO  METHODIST   ^HNISTERS 

Library  Extension  Service. — One  of  the  most  effective 
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. 

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  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 
referees  for  high  school  contests,  athletic  and  literary. 


54  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 
position  to  provide  assistance  in  the  planning  and  preparation 
of  club  programs.  / 

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  55 

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. 

4.  When  the  aggregate  of  demerits  reaches  one  hundred,  he 
is  dismissed  from  the  College.

college  will  be  board  payable  monthly  at  approximately  $15.00 
per  month.  All  accoounts  due  for  any  preceding  semester 
must  be  paid  in  cash  before  a  student  ■will  be  enrolled  for  the 
next  semester.  Corner  rooms  in  Founder's  Hall  will  be

Rooms  in  Burton  and  Galloway  Hall  rent  for  $40.00  per  year, 
corner  rooms  $45.00  per  year.  There  are  a  few  rooms  avail- 
able in  cottages  at  $20.00  per  year. 

All  fees  and  a  board  deposit  of  $20.00  must  be  paid  at 
the  opening  of  school.  No  refund  on  fees  will  be  made.  In 
case  of  unavoidable  withdrawal,  approved  by  the  president  of 
the  college,  tuition,  room  rent  and  board  will  be  charged  only 
for  the  time  actually  spent  in  school,  at  the  rate  of  one-eighth

board.  Except  in  the  case  of  such  withdrawals  from  school, 
rooms  will  not  be  rented  for  less  than  one  semester,  and  no 
refund  will  be  made  for  dormitory  rooms  vacated  in  the  midst 
of  a  semester.  All  freshmen  except  day  students  will  be  re- 
quired to  room  in  Founder's  Hall  during  the  entire  freshman 
year. 

NOTE: — ^All  students  making  an  average  of  A  for  the 
previous  session  will  be  given  a  discount  of  $40.00  on  the 
above  tuition  charge;  those  whose  average  is  below  C-plus, 
will  pay  $25.00  more  than  the  above  tuition  charge.  Fresh- 
man tuition  is  likewise  based  on  achievement  of  the  last  two 


MILLSAPS  COLLEGE  59 

years  in  high  school.  The  applicant  whose  average  grade  is 
20%  higher  than  the  pass  grade  for  the  last  two  years  in  high 
school  will  receive  a  discount  of  $40.00  on  his  tuition  charge, 
and  the  applicant  whose  average  grade  for  the  last  two  years 
is  less  than  8%  higher  than  the  pass  grade  will  pay  $25.00 
more  than  the  above  average  charges. 

This  variation  in  the  tuition  charge  is  based  on  the  fact 
that  the  cost  of  instruction  for  the  diligent  and  effective  stu- 
dent is  substantially  less.  For  example,  students  in  the  high- 
est one-fourth  of  the  class  may  be  taught  in  classes  one-third 
larger.  Also,  a  coaching  school  with  individual  instruction 
is  maintained  largely  for  the  benefit  of  those  paying  the  high- 
er rate  of  tuition.  Most  of  the  first  class  colleges  now  recog- 
nize this  fact  and  offer  scholarships  to  superior  students.  At 
Millsaps  this  recognition  of  superior  achievement  is  placed 
on  a  uniform  business  basis  and  is  available  to  all.  In  ad- 
dition twenty  free-tuition  scholarships  are  offered  to  fresh- 
man students  from  selected  schools  named  below. 

LABORATORY  FEES 

Students  pursuing  Laboratory  Courses  are  charged  addi- 
tional fees  varying  with  the  department,  as  follows: 

Chemistry     $  10.00 

Physics     10.00 

Geology    3.00 

Biology     10.00 

Astronomy  10.00 

Surveying     10.00 

Laboratory  Breakage  Deposit  (per  course) 2.00 

SCHOLARSHIPS,   PRIZES   AND   LOANS 

There  are  a  number  of  endowed  scholarship  funds,  the 
income  from  which  may  be  used  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  to 
aid  deserving  young  men  in  securing  a  college  education.  The 
following  is  a  list  of  the  endowments  at  present  available  for 
such  use:

work. 

The  college  will  grant  twenty  free-tuition  scholarships  to 
the  schools  named  below.  These  are  awarded  by  the  presi-

burg,  McComb,  Gulfport,  Clarksdale,  Greenwood,  Greenville, 
Grenada,  Columbus,  and  Tupelo,  one  each. 

The  Ralph  Humphreys  Chapter  of  the  Daughters  of  the 
American  Revolution  offers  a  scholarship  of  $100.00,  to  which 
the  college  adds  $50.00.  This  scholarship  is  awarded  by  a 
committee  of  representatives  of  the  chapter  and  of  the  fac- 
ulty and  is  granted  for  superiority  in  scholarship,  promise  of 
usefulness  and  self  reliance  as  shown  by  earning  at  least  50% 
of  the  college  expenses.  The  United  Daughters  of  the  Con- 
federacy have  also  for  a  number  of  years  provided  a  partial 
scholarship  for  a  student  selected  by  themselves. 

The  Oakley  Memorial.

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  30-ampere  electric  current,  with  separate  control  fo^ 
lighting  fixture  attached  to  ceiling  of  hood.

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  with  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

A  lecture  room,  a  laboratory,  and  a  large  room  for  the 
display  of  specimens  are  provided  for  this  department  in  the 
new  fireproof  Science  Hall.  The  Museum  contains  about  300 
minerals  collected  from  various  parts  of  the  world,  200  speci- 
mens of  rock  presented  by  the  United  States  Geological  Sur- 
vey, 300  minerals  and  rocks  presented  by  Goucher  College. 
and  a  fine  collection  of  Mississippi  rocks  and  fossils.  The 
excellence  of  the  latter  is  yearly  increased  by  donations  from 
friends  of  the  College,  and  a  collection  made  by  the  professor 
and  class  on  annual  trips. 

11.  Lithologic  and  Physiographic  Geology. 

This  includes  a  study  of  mineral  crystalline  forms,  chem-

and  topographical  sheets  of  the  U.  S.  Geological  Survey 
will  be  used  in  connection  with  a  study  of  physiographic 
features  and  processes. 

Dynamic  Geology. 

The  portion  of  the  courses  embraces  the  study  of  the 
mechanical  and  chemical  effects  of  the  atmosphere,  wa- 
ter, heat,  and  life.  Special  attention  will  be  given  to 
some  phases  of  the  subject,  as  the  work  of  glaciers,  and 
of  volcanoes. 

12.  Historical  Geology. 

In  addition  to  the  general  historical  geology,  some  atten- 
tion will  be  given  to  economic  products  and  to  paleon- 
tology. 

The  College  museum  and  the  private  museum  of  the  head 
of  the  department  afford  minerals  and  fossils  for  class  study. 

Several  geological  expeditions,  regularly  made  in  the  fall 
and  spring  to  localities  easily  accessible  to  Jackson  give  the 
class  a  practical  conception  of  this  kind  of  surveying.  The 
College  is  fortunate  in  being  located  in  the  midst  of  a  region

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

ASSOCIATE   PROFESSOR   MOORE 

NORMAN    BRADLEY 

PAUL  RAMSEY 

In  the  courses  in  History  two  things  will  be  kept  in  view. 
Students  will  be  required  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  tlie  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.

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.

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, 
itrengthen  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.

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.  Vsrioi;g  styles  of  offense  and  defense 
will  be  discussed.

M.   E.   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  v^rith  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  vride  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 
the  Department,  after  consultation  with  the  Professor  in 
charge.  Religion  41,  42  and  61,  may  be  counted  toward  a 
major  in  the  Department  of  Education.

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

The  Summer  School  of  Millsaps  College  for  193  4  will 
open  on  June  12  and  will  continue  for  eleven  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  advtntages  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. 

The  amount  of  work  that  a  student  may  take  will  be  lim- 
ited to  two  subjects  with  a  total  credit  of  twelve  semester 
hours,  or  to  four  semester  courses  of  three  hours  each.

MILLSAPS  COLLEGE  141 

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,  v^hile  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.
