THE CREED OF OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY
I believe in God:
Infinite intelligence, eternal love, immeasurable power;
Father and mother, creator and preserver and destroyer
Of all that was and is and will be;
Whether visible or invisible,
Audible or inaudible,
Tangible or intangible.
I love God with all my heart and mind and will.
I see and hear God at all times, in all places, in all things.
I study the Law of God in science, in literature, in religion.
I worship God in gratitude, in truth and in conduct.
I believe in Man:
In his glorious struggle upward out of the night of the past,
In his ability and willingness to accept and develop
The opportunities and duties of his present dawn,
And in the certainty of his eventual arrival
At the sublime noon of his highest ideals.
I believe in virtue, in justice, and in righteousness among men,
The faithful guides that illumine his path
Through the jungles of hates and greeds and fears
I love man, as a friend, as a brother, as myself.
I work for man, for his intellectual enlightenment, for his ma-
terial betterment, for his moral development.
I believe in myself:
In my courage, in my conscience, in my power.
I believe in strength through joy, joy through faith, and faith
through prayer.
I believe that the parenthood of God and the brotherhood of
man
Are above and around and within me.
I believe that the Will of God
Is revealed in me as in all things else;
Most clearly in my best thonghts, my noblest feelings, my fin-
est ambitions.
I believe in my Messiaship, and in that of all men who follow
The urge to live and die for the welfare of the world.
I believe in my future;
That the kind of power which led me through the eternity of the
past to this present good hour,
Without my knowledge or consent,
Will never withdraw his loving kindness from me
Now that I have learned to know and love and trust Him.
To this faith I commit my all.
Lead on, O God!
"(Elje ^rager of (gIetl|orpe ^ttiuerstty,
FATHER OF WISDOM, MASTER OF THE SCHOOLS OF MEN, OF
THINE ALL-KNOWLEDGE GRANT ME THIS MY PRAYER: THAT
I MAY BE WISE IN THEE. SINK THOU MY FOUNDATIONS
DEEP INTO THY BOSOM UNTIL THEY REST UPON THE VAST
ROCK OF THY COUNSEL. LIFT THOU MY WALLS INTO THE
CLEAR EMPYREAN OF THY TRUTH. COVER ME WITH THE
WINGS THAT SHADOW FROM ALL HARM. LAY MY THRESH-
OLDS IN HONOR AND MY LINTELS IN LOVE. SET THOU MY
FLOORS IN THE CEMENT OF UNBREAKABLE FRIENDSHIP AND
MAY MY WINDOWS BE TRANSPARENT WITH HONESTY. LEAD
THOU UNTO ME, LORD GOD, THOSE WHOM THOU HAST AP-
POINTED TO BE MY CHILDREN, AND WHEN THEY SHALL
COME WHO WOULD LEARN OF ME THE WISDOM OF THE
YEARS, LET THE CRIMSON OF MY WINDOWS GLOW WITH
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. LET THEM SEE, O MY LORD,
HIM WHOM THOU HAST SHOWN ME; LET THEM HEAR HIM
WHOSE VOICE HAS WHISPERED TO ME AND LET THEM REACH
OUT THEIR HANDS AND TOUCH HIM WHO HAS GENTLY LED
ME UNTO THIS GOOD DAY. ROCK-RIBBED MAY I STAND FOR
THY TRUTH. LET THE STORMS OF EVIL BEAT ABOUT ME
IN VAIN. MAY I SAFELY SHELTER THOSE WHO COME UNTO
ME FROM THE WINDS OF ERROR. LET THE LIGHTNING THAT
LIES IN THE CLOUD OF IGNORANCE BREAK UPON MY HEAD
IN DESPAIR. MAY THE YOUNG AND THE PURE AND THE
CLEAN-HEARTED PUT THEIR TRUST SECURELY IN ME NOR
MAY ANY WHO COME TO MY HALLS FOR GUIDANCE BE
SENT ASTRAY. LET THE BLUE ASHLARS OF MY BREAST
THRILL TO THE HAPPY SONGS OF THE TRUE-HEARTED AND
MAY THE VERY HEART OF MY CAMPUS SHOUT FOR JOY
AS IT FEELS THE TREAD OF THOSE WHO MARCH FOR GOD.
ALL THIS I PRAY THEE; AND YET THIS MORE: THAT THERE
MAY BE NO STAIN UPON MY STONES, FOREVER. AMEN.

The Faculty of the University
The Board of Directors of Oglethorpe University, real-
izing the responsibility upon them of selecting a faculty
whose spiritual and intellectual equipment should be cap-
able of satisfying the tremendous demands of a really
great institution of learning, have spared no effort or
pains in securing a body of men who would not only pos-
sess that first requisite of a teacher, a great soul, but
should also have those two other requisites of almost
equal importance: power of imparting their ideals and
knowledge, and intellectual acquirements adequate for
their departments. The most important element in edu-
cation is the creating in the student of an intense
yearning for and delight in the Good, the True, and the
Beautiful, and the first essential for the creation of such
a spirit is the example set before him by the faculty. The
object of an Oglethorpe education is to furnish the stu-
dent with deeper thoughts, finer emotions, and nobler
purposes to the end that he may more clearly under-
stand, more fully enjoy and more excellently behave
in the world. It has been the purpose of the Board of
Directors in making their selection of members of the
faculty to choose them from as many different sections
of America as possible, thus providing a representative
and cosmopolitan American corps of teachers.

Historical Sketch
The historical genesis of Oglethorpe University takes
us back to the middle of the eighteenth century when,
under the leadership of Presbyterian men, Princeton
College was founded in New Jersey and rapidly became
the institution largely patronized by the young men
from Presbyterian families all over the world. After
a while the long distance which must be traveled by
stage or horseback, suggested the building of a similar
institution under the auspices of Presbyterianism in the
South. The movement began with the spring meeting
of Hopewell Presbytery in the year 1823, and eventuat-
ed in the founding of a manual training school, and this
in turn, became Oglethorpe College in 1 835 when Mid-
way Hill, in the suburbs of Milledgeville, then the
capital of the state of Georgia, was chosen for the
location of the institution. Old Oglethorpe College was
thus the first denominational college or university be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans south of the
Virginia line, and, of a right, claimed to be the Alma
Mater of all that brilliant company of institutions which
were born after her in this vast empire.
The facilities of the old Oglethorpe were adequate
for the time. The main building was probably the hand-
somest college structure in the Southeast when it was
erected, and "contained the finest college chapel in
the United States not excepting Yale, Harvard or
Princeton."
In the faculty of the institution may be found the
names of men who were world famous. Among these
were Joseph LeConte, the great geologist, James Wood-
row, the brilliant and devoted Christian and scientist,
Samuel K. Talmadge, the eminent administrator and
many others. It is, perhaps, the chief glory of old
Oglethorpe University 25
Oglethorpe that after three years of instruction she
graduated Sidney Lanier of the famous class of 1 860
and that he was a tutor to her sons until the spring
of '61 when with the Oglethorpe cadets he marched
away to the wars. Shortly before his death, Lanier, look-
ing back over his career, remarked to a friend that the
greatest intellectual impulse of his life had come to him
during his college days at Oglethorpe through the in-
fluence of Dr. Woodrow. Her other eminent alumni
include governors, justices, moderators of the General
Assembly, discoverers, inventors and a host of honest,
industrious and superb laborers for the highest ideals
of humanity.
Oglethorpe "died at Gettysburg," for during the war
her sons were soldiers, her endowment was invested
in Confederate bonds, and her buildings which were used
for barracks and hospitals, were later destroyed. An
effort was made to revive the institution in the '70's
and to locate it in Atlanta, but the evils of reconstruction
days and financial disaster made the adventure im-
possible, and after a year and a half of struggle the
doors were closed for the second time.
Only twenty-nine years have passed since the present
movement to re-found the university began and they
have been years of financial disaster and utter turmoil,
yet the assets and subscription pledges of the institution
have approached the sum of a million dollars as the
result of unusual and self-sacrificing liberality on the
part of over five hundred people.
The corner stone of Oglethorpe University was laid
on January 21, 1915, with her trustful motto engraved
upon it: "Manu Dei Resurrexit" (By the Hand of God
She Has Risen From the Dead).
26 Oglethorpe University
The Opening, September 20, 1916
Oglethorpe University opened her doors in the au-
tumn of 1916. After 50 years of rest beneath the gray
ashes of fratricidal strife she rose to breathe the airs
of a new day. Her first building, constructed of gran-
ite trimmed with limestone, covered with variegated
slates and as near fire proof as human skill can make
it, was ready for occupancy in the fall of 1916, when
the first class gathered on her beautiful campus on
Peachtree Road. A faculty equal to that of any cog-
nate institution in the country was formed. The work
of raising funds and new construction goes steadily
on. All of this has been done in the midst of financial
disaster that has darkened the spirit of the whole nation.
The Romance of Her Resurrection
The story of the resurrection of Oglethorpe reads
like a romance. Beginning only twenty-nine years ago
with a contribution of $100.00 a year for ten years from
her present president, it soon gathered with it a band of
great-hearted Atlanta men who determined to see that
their city had a university, as well as a band of far-seeing
educational leaders, who wished to erect a certain type
of institution in this splendid metropolis. The story of
how dollar was added to dollar during the campaign
of four years; of how no less than seventy Atlanta
men gave each $1,000.00 or more to the enterprise;
of how the story was told in 101 cities and towns all
over the South from Galveston, Texas to Charlottesville,
Virginia, and from Marshall, Missouri, to Bradenton,
Florida, each one of them giving $1,000 or more to the
enterprise; the splendid triumph of the Atlanta cam-
paigns; all this is well known. Since that time the same
Oglethorpe University 27
wonderful record has been maintained. There are now
something like five thousand men, women and children,
all of whom have contributed or promised from fifty
cents to $1,000. They are the Founders' Club which
is carrying the movement forward so splendidly.
Her Architectural Beauty
An idea of the quality of construction and design of
the institution may be gained from the illustrated
material accompanying this catalogue.
It will be seen that the architects and landscape
artists have spared no pains to make Oglethorpe one of
the really beautiful universities of America. The archi-
tecture is Collegiate Gothic; the building material is a
beautiful blue granite trimmed with limestone. All the
buildings are covered with heavy variegated slates. The
interior construction is of steel, concrete, brick and
hollow tile. The building given by Mr. and Mrs. Lup-
ton and their son, our beloved benefactors, is the one
with the tower just opposite on the left of the entrance.
Lowry Hall, the gift of Col. and Mrs. R. J. Lowry, stands
completed at the end of the main axis directly in front
of the entrance. The total cost of construction of the
buildings mentioned above with the land and the land-
scape work required, will be approximately $4,000,000.
The building plan will be followed out in its entirety.
The Oglethorpe Campus
By the generosity of Mr. William Randolph Hearst,
Oglethorpe is the possessor of one of the finest college
campuses in the entire world. In the summer of 1929
Mr. Hearst gave to the University the entire Silver
Lake Estates, four hundred acres of primeval forest
28 Oglethorpe University
surrounding an eighty-acre lake with something like
five miles of graded road winding through it. As this
property immediately adjoins two hundred acres already
possessed by the University, the completed campus
consists of a body of six hundred acres of land in one
tract in the immediate vicinity of Atlanta, on Peachtree
Road and on the main line of the Southern Railroad.
This gift of Mr. Hearst provides for the University ample
space for future development and protects its growth
from encroachment by urban Atlanta whose suburbs
are rapidly surrounding the campus.
Hermance Stadium
During the summer of 1929 the first section of
Hermance Stadium was erected at a cost of something
over $100,000. Like all the other Oglethorpe build-
ings it is constructed of granite, trimmed with carved
limestone. The seats are of reinforced concrete. This
first section which seats about five thousand, com-
prises approximately one-ninth of the total seating
capacity. When completed it will have cost something
like $750,000 and will have a seating capacity of ap-
proximately that of the Roman Colosseum, 45,000. It
is named in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Harry P. Hermance,
Hal Hermance and Miss Helena Hermance, the donors.
Her Spiritual and Intellectual Ideals
But it is not so much the magnificent exterior of
the institution about which the men who are founding
Oglethorpe are most concerned, it is the spiritual and
intellectual life of their university. To that end they
have resolved to maintain a faculty and a curriculum
that will be of the highest possible quality, their thought
Oglethorpe University 29
being excellence in every department. They are taking
the superb traditions of the Old Oglethorpe and adding
the best of the present age to them.
Founders' Book
In the Founders' Room at Oglethorpe there will be
a book containing the name of every man, woman and
child who aided in the founding of the University, ar-
ranged alphabetically by states. That Book will be
accessible to every student and visitor who may want
to know who it v/as from his or her home that took part
in the doing of this, the greatest deed that has been
attempted for our sons and daughters in this generation.
The book is not yet complete, because the work is not
yet finished, and each month is adding many to this roll
of honor, whose names will thus be preserved in the life
and archives of Oglethorpe University forever. It will
be bound in a handsome metal and leather cover given
by J. F. Jacobs.
Clock and Chimes
In the tower of the building given by Mr. and Mrs.
J. T. Lupton, is installed a clock and chimes, with three
dials, ten bells and night illumination, the gift of friends
of the University. It is interesting to note that this is
the only set of chimes on any college campus in Georgia.
Concerts are given daily.
Immediate Purpose and Scope
The purpose of Oglethorpe University is to offer
courses of study leading to the higher academic and
professional degrees, under a Christian environment,
and thus to train young men who wish to become spec-
ialists in professional and business life and teachers
30 Oglethorpe University
in our high schools and colleges, and to supply the
growing demand for specially equipped men in every
department of human activity.
Students who are looking forward to university work
are invited to correspond with the President in order
that they may prepare themselves for the advanced
courses which are to be offered.
Adequate library and laboratory facilities are provided.
Free use is made of the city of Atlanta, in itself a re-
markable laboratory of industrial and scientific life,
whose museums, libraries, and municipal plants are at
the disposal of our students for observation, inspection
and investigation.
Grounds and Buildings
The campus consists of approximately six hundred
acres of land including an eighty-acre lake which is
situated in the northwestern section of the campus.
Near the entrance to the campus is the term-
inus of the Oglethorpe University bus line, and
an attractive little stone station of the Southern Rail-
way main line between Atlanta and Washington. The
first building to be located on the campus, the Ad-
ministration Building, contains in the basem*nt a dining
room; on the ground floor, chemistry and physics lecture
rooms, and laboratories, the administrative offices and
lounging room for young ladies attending the college;
on the second and third floors, the hospital and dormi-
tories. Lupton Hall contains the library, the President's
office, class rooms, dormitories, an Assembly Hall seat-
ing approximately six hundred, equipped also as a the-
atre for the presentation of student dramats, and in the
basem*nt, basketball court,, swimming pool, lockers and
showers, and quarters of the University Press. The Uni-
Oglethorpe University 31
versity Press is equipped with a Babco*ck optimus press,
linotype machine and two job presses, with a number of
type stands and other printing equipment given by John
Dillard Jacobs.
Lowry Hall houses the Lowry School of Banking and
Commerce, and the Art Studios. It is largely a replica
of old Corpus Christi College, Oxford, the alma mater of
James Edward Oglethorpe. It contains class rooms and
dormitories, and will stand as a perpetual memorial to
the generosity of Colonel R. J. Lowry and Emma Mark-
ham Lowry.
ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS
In the Schools of Liberal Arts, Literature and
Journalism, Science, Business Administration,
Education, Secretarial Preparation, Fine
Arts, and Physical Education
The requirement for entrance to the Academic
Schools of Oglethorpe University is a certificate of

units from an accredited high school he may absolve
his deficiencies by standing entrance examinations on
four subjects, two of which shall be English and Mathe-
matics. A student who has completed in a secondary
school two years of a foreign language will not receive
credit for a beginner's course in the same language. The
candidate must present at least three units in English
* Students coming from outside the State of Georgia may be
admitted on fifteen units without a high school . diploma and
without examination, but a certificate must be presented.
32 Oglethorpe University
and two units in Mathematics. A unit represents a
year's study in any subject in an accredited high school.
Prospective students are requested to bring their
High School certificates with them; better still, to have
them sent to the Registrar before applying for registra-
tion.

amination or examinations satisfactory to the Dean of
the department in v/hich the work is to be done.
The minimum number of subjects permitted is twelve
clock hours per week.
Standards for Georgia Colleges*
The following standards have been adopted by the
State Board of Education of Georgia. They are de-
signed to serve two purposes:
* These standards have been adopted by Oglethorpe Univer-
sity and are effective as of September 23, 1931.
34 Oglethorpe University
(a) A basis of granting charters to new or proposed
higher educational institutions under the provisions of
Section 14 of the Georgia Code. **
(b) A basis for preparing an approved list of teacher
training institutions for the State of Georgia.
It is not proposed that these standards should op-
erate to make it impossible for a worthy new enterprise
to be begun, nor for a worthy institution now in operation
to be denied a fair opportunity for development.
It is, therefore, agreed that:
(a) In the case of proposed new institutions of higher
learning, if the Board of Education is satisfied that such
institution has a reasonable possibility of meeting these
standards within three years a provisional charter for
three years may be granted, such charter to be made
permanent if and when such institution shall have met
the conditions of these standards.
(b) In the case of institutions now in operation, the
application of these standards shall not go into effect
until after the expiration of three years from the date
of the adoption of these standards.
Standards for Colleges
/. Definition:
A standard college, university, or technological in-
stitution designated as "college" in this statement of
standards is an institution:
**Section 14. No charter giving the right to confer degrees
or issue diplomas shall be granted to any proposed institution
of learning within the state of Georgia until the proper show-
ing has been made to the State Board of Education that the
proposed University, College, Normal, or Professional school
shall give' evidence of its ability to meet the standard require-
ments set up by the State Board of Education.
Oglethorpe University 35
(a) Which is legally authorized to give non-profes-
sional Bachelor's degrees;
(b) Which is organized definitely on the basis of the
completion of a standard secondary school curri-
culum;
(c) Which organizes its curricula in such a way that
the early years are a continuation of, and supple-
ment the work of the secondary school and at
least the last two years are shaped more or less
distinctly in the direction of special, professional,
or graduate instruction;
(d) Which is separate and distinct, both in faculty
and operation, from any high school.
2. Entrance or Admission:
A college shall demand for admission of candidates
for degrees the satisfactory completion of a four year
course (15 units from a four year high school or twelve
units from a three year senior high school) in a secon-
dary school approved by a recognized accrediting
agency or the equivalent of such a course, as shown by
examination. The major portion of the secondary
school course accepted for admission should be definite-
ly correlated with the curriculum to which the student
is admitted.
Persons over 21 years of age, who do not meet re-
quirements for admission, may be admitted to regular
college courses if the authorities of the college are satis-
fied that such persons can carry the courses satis-
factorily. These shall be classified as special students
and shall not be admitted to candidacy for bachelor's
degrees until all entrance requirements have been satis-
fied.
3. Graduation:
A college shall require for graduation the comple-
tion of a minimum quantitative requirement of 120
36 Oglethorpe University
semester hours of credit (or the equivalent in term
hours, quarter hours, points, majors, or courses) with
further qualitative requirements adapted by each in-
stitution to its conditions.
A semester hour is defined as a credit for work in
a class which meets for at least one sixty-minute per-
iod (including ten minutes for change of classes) weekly
for lecture, recitation, or test for a semester of eighteen
weeks (including not over two weeks for all holidays and
vacations). Two hours of laboratory work shall count
as the equivalent of one hour of lecture, recitation, or
test.
4. Degrees:
Small institutions should confine themselves to one
or two baccalaureate degrees. When more than one
baccalaureate degree is offered, all shall be equal in
requiremnets for admission and graduation. Insti-
tutions of limited resources and inadequate facilities
for graduate work should confine themselves to strict-
ly undergraduate courses.
5. Permanent Records:
A system of permanent records showing clearly all
credits (including entrance records) of each student
shall be carefully kept. The original credentials filed
from other institutions shall be retained. As far as
possible, records of graduates should be kept.
6. Size of Faculty and Number of Departments:
A college of arts and sciences of approximately 100
students should maintain at least eight separate de-
partments with at least one professor in each devot-
ing his whole time to that department. The size of
the faculty should bear a definite relation to the type of
the institution, the number of students, and the number
Oglethorpe University 37
of courses offered. With the growth of the student body,
the number of full-time teachers should be correspond-
ingly increased. The development of varied curricula
should involve the addition of other heads of depart-
ments.
7. Training of Faculty:
Faculty members of professional rank should have
not less than one full year of graduate work, majoring
in the subject taught, in addition to a bachelor's degree
from a fully accredited college, and should have two
years of training in an approved graduate school.
The training of the head of each department shall
be that represented by two full years of graduate work
or its equivalent.
8. Faculty Load:
The number of hours of class room work given by
each teacher will vary in different departments. To
determine this, the amount of preparation required for
the class and the amount of time needed for study
to keep abreast of the subject, together with the number
of students, must be taken into account. Teaching
schedules, including classes for part-time students, ex-
ceeding 18 recitation hours or their equivalent per week
per instructor, will be interpreted as endangering edu-
cational efficiency. Sixteen hours is the recommended
maximum load.
9. Size of Classes:
Classes (exclusive of lectures) of more than thirty
students should be interpreted as endangering educa-
tional efficiency.
10. Financial Support:
The minimum annual operating income for an ac-
credited college, exclusive of payment of interest, an-
38 Oglethorpe University
nuities, etc., should be $30,000, of which not less than
$15,000 should be derived from stable sources, other
than students, such as permanent endowment, public
funds or church support. Increase in faculty, stu-
dent body and scope of instruction should be accom-
panied by a corresponding increase of income from
such stable sources. The financial status of each col-
lege should be judged in relation to its educational
program.
A college that does not have such support from en-
dowment, church, state or public sources must show,
for a period of three consecutive years immediately pre-
ceding its application for accrediting, that its charges
and expenditures are such as to show a minimum average
annual net surplus of not less than $15,000 from non-
educational services, such as board, room rents, etc.,
which may be used to supplement tuition fees.
7 / . Library:
A college should have a live, well-distributed, ade-
quately housed library of at least 8,000 volumes, ex-
clusive of public documents, bearing specifically upon
the subject taught, administered by a full-time pro-
fessionally trained librarian, and with a definite annual
appropriation for the purchase of new books.
72. Laboratories:
The laboratory equipment shall be adequate for all
the experiments called for by the courses offered in
the sciences, and these facilities shall be kept up by
means of an annual appropriation in keeping with the
curriculum.
73. General Equipment and Buildings:
The location and construction of the buildings, the
lighting, heating and ventilation of the rooms, the nature
Oglethorpe University 39
of the laboratories, corridors, closets, water supply,
school furniture, apparatus, and methods of cleaning
shall be such as to insure hygienic conditions for both
students and teachers.
14. Proportion of Students Candidates for Degrees:
No institution shall be admitted to the accredited
list, or continued more than one year on such list, un-
less it has a college registration of at least 100 reg-
ular students. A notably small proportion of college
students registered in the third and fourth years will
constitute ground for dropping an institution from the
accredited list.
At least 75 per cent of the students in a college should
be pursuing courses leading to baccalaureate degrees;
provided, however, that this shall not apply to stu-
dents enrolled in extension, correspondence or other
similar departments, not in regular course for a degree,
in an institution which otherwise meets these standards.
15. Character of the Curriculum:
The character of the curriculum, the standards for
regular degrees, the conservatism in granting honorary
degrees, provision in the curriculum for breadth of
study and for concentration, soundness of scholarship,
the practice of scientific spirit including freedom of
investigation and teaching, loyalty to facts, and en-
couragement of efficiency, initative and originality in
investigation and teaching, the tone of the institution,
including the existence and culture of good morals and
ideals, and satisfaction and enthusiasm among stu-
dents and staff shall be factors in determining its
standing.
16. Extra-Curricular Activities:
The proper administration of athletics, student publi-
40 Oglethorpe University
cations, student organizations, and all extra-curricular
activities, is one of the fundamental tests of a standard
college, and therefore, should be considered in classi-
fication.
17. Professional and Technical Departments:
When the institution has, in addition to the college of
arts and sciences, professional or technical depart-
ments, the colleges of arts and sciences shall not be
accepted for the approved list of the State Department
of Education unless the professional or technical de-
partments are of approved grade, national standards
being used when available.
18. Inspection and Reports:
Filing of Blank No institution shall be placed on
the approved list unless a regular information blank has
been filed with the State Department of Education.
The blank shall be filed again for each of the three
years after the college has been approved, and trien-
nially thereafter, but the Department may for due cause
call upon any member to file a new report at any time.
Failure to file the blank as required shall be cause for
dropping an institution.
Inspection No college will be placed on the approved
list until it has been inspected and reported upon by
the agent or agents regularly appointed by the State
Department of Education. All colleges accredited by
the Department shall be open to inspection at any time.
Oglethorpe University was the first educational in-
stitution in Georgia to be inspected and fully accred-
ited by the State Board of Education after the adop-
tion of the above Standards, following the approval
of them by all the educational institutions in the com-
monwealth.

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION REGULATIONS GOV-
ERNING ACCEPTANCE OF CREDITS SUBMITTED FOR
HIGHER CERTIFICATES
The following regulations are made by the State
Board of Education for the protection of standards on
which teachers are certificated and on which the state
salary schedule is based. We request the full coopera-
tion of teachers, superintendents, principals, and col-
lege authorities in making them effective.
1. Regulation 15 of the last (1940) bulletin on cer-
tification is as follows:
"A teacher who is regularly employed may not re-
ceive credit for more than three courses (10 se-
mester hours, 15 quarter hours, 5 college hours)
begun or completed within the school year. No
regularly employed teacher may receive during any
year, including summer school, credit for more
than seven courses 23 1-3 semester hours)."
In the cases of all work done after September 1, 1941,
this regulation will be interpreted as follows:
a. During any three months in which he is regu-
larly employed, a teacher may not earn credit
for more than one course. Credits exceeding
one course during any quarter will not be car-
ried forward to be accepted the following year.
b. During any six weeks of summer school, not
more than two courses or 6 2-3 semester hours
of credit may be earned.
c. A teacher who is employed regularly for nine
months may thus earn a total credit of three
42 Oglethorpe University
courses during the school year, four courses in
a twelve weeks' summer school, or a total of
seven courses the calendar year.
2. Regulation 16 is as follows:
"Not more than one-fourth of the total credit re-
quired for any certificate may be earned by cor-
respondence or class extension. This regulation
will not be retroactive for the dates prior to Sep-
tember 1, 1939."
Oglethorpe University 43
General Information
REGISTRATION
1. Each student will first report to the Dean of the
school in which he wishes to register. With his course
and schedule approved by his Dean, the student will
present his schedule card to the Registrar. He will then
record his courses on triplicate cards.
2. A student is not considered registered until he
registers his subjects in the Registrar's office, has these
courses approved by the Registrar, secures a bill from
the Bursar, and pays the Cashier.
3. No student is to be admited to class without a
student card issued by the Cashier when he has set-
tled his financial obligations to the University.
4. At the beginning of each term, a few days after
registration, the Registrar sends to each professor
course cards for each student who has registered.
Should a student fail to appear in class before the ten
days allowed for changing, dropping or adding subjects,
the profesor is to notify the Registrar immediately.
Failure of the professor to do so does not excuse the
student from the financial obligation involved.
5. As soon as course cards are received from the
Registrar's office, each profesor must check his roll
and report to the Registrar immediately the names of
any students in his classes for whom he does not have
a card.
6. Subjects may be changed, dropped or added only
during the first ten days of each term and only upon
written permission from the Dean of the school in v/hich
the student is enrolled.
44 Oglethorpe University
7. Students are allowed to register up to one-third
of the term. It is necessary that a student attend at
least two-thirds of the term's classes if credit is desired.
8. Each student is required to register in person.
9. A fine of $1.00 per day (maximum limit one-
third of the duration of the term concerned) is charged
for any student who registers after the dates set aside
for registration as per college calendar.
1 0. As it is impossible to know how many hours of
work each student will register for at the beginning of
each term, no bills are sent out in advance. The stu-
dent is advised to get an estimate of his expenses before
the term begins.
11. Deans of departments can require delinquent
students to drop specific courses only at the beginning
of each term.
12. In the Summer School students must register
within six days of the beginning of each term.
LATE REGISTRATION
A charge of $1 a day will be made for students who
register after the time set for registration at the begin-
ning of the winter and spring terms.
FINES
A penalty of $1.00 will be charged each student mov-
ing articles of furniture from one room to another with-
out permission from either the Bursar's office or the
Cashier's office. This fine will also be charged any stu-
dent changing his room without permission from the
office.
A fine of $1.00 a day (up to one-third of the term)
Oglethorpe University 45
will be charged for late registration. Winter and Spring
terms.
A fine of $5.00 is charged if any student attends a
class or examination without registration, which in-
cludes payment of charges.
CLASSIFICATION
As a basis for determining the classes to which a stu-
dent shall belong, the following regulation is to apply:
a first year student must have fulfilled the requirements
for entrance to his classes by one of the methods
specified. In addition to his entrance units, a second
year student must have completed fifteen year hours; a
junior thirty year hours; and a senior forty-five year
hours. Special students will not be eligible for admis-
sion to either of the four college classes, or membership
in any of the social fraternities or sororities or the ath-
letic or forensic teams representing the University. A
student failing to receive sufficient credits during any
year to entitle him to enter the next higher class must
remain in the lower class until the deficiencies are ab-
solved. Back work in a required subject must be made
up within the next term; otherwise the student will be
excluded from the class to which he would naturally
belong.
ACADEMIC HOURS
The average number of hours a week for first year
students is sixteen to seventeen, and is uniform for
all schools of the University. The number of hours
a week for the upperclassmen differs. In order to avoid
errors in registration all students are required to arrange
their courses and hours with the Deans of the schools
which they wish to enter. This also applies to special
students.
46 Oglethorpe University
Freshmen, Sophom*ores, and Juniors may not take
more than 1 8 hours a week unless they have made an
average of B with no grade below C in the previous
term. If a student wishes to make more than 20 hours,
the written consent of the Dean must be secured, re-
gardless of the average made. Seniors are not limited,
but the written consent of the Dean must be secured.
There must be 66 minimum year hours (198 term
hours) of regular standard work for every degree. One
hour per year may be selected by the student from
Music, Intramural Sports, Football, Debaters' Club,
Players' Club and work on the Petrel, not on the Yama-
craw. The student must register in advance and pay for
these, and they must be certified to by the professor
in charge.
EXAMINATIONS
For a supplemental examination, whether on account
of failure to pass or absence from the University, the
student is to pay a fee of $2.00, receipt for which must
be secured from the Cashier and presented to the pro-
fessor before the examination is given. The examina-
tion must be taken in the term following the regular
term. In case the student is out of school one or more
terms, he may take it in the term in which he returns.
If the grade is below 50, the student is not entitled to a
re-examination. A fine of $5.00 is imposed upon any
student taking a re-examination without having paid
this $2 fee in advance.
ABSENCES
A student accumulating a total of ten unexcused
absences from all classes in one term will forfeit one
hour of credit and two quality points. A total of four
Oglethorpe University 47
absences in one term from the Tuesday morning As-
sembly carries the same penalty.
All absences concerning illness are to be referred to
and approved by the head of the infirmary. Absences
concerning college affairs are to be referred to and ap-
proved by Dean Patrick. Reports on absences are to be
filed in the Registrar's office, and students are not to
be excused by any other faculty member.
Excused absences are those caused by illness, ab-
sence from classes on account of college duties, or for
other reasons approved by the Dean.
Excuses for absences must be filed in the Regis-
trar's office by the Monday afternoon following the
week in which the absences occurred.
Continued and deliberate cutting of classes may in-
volve dismissal from the University.
Absences will be counted from the first regular class
session, whether the student is enrolled at the time or
not, unless excused by the Dean.
FAILURE IN STUDIES
A student who is failing in any of his courses dur-
ing a term will be given personal warning, and a letter
will be written to his parents or guardian by the Dean
of his school or the Registrar. If a student be seriously
behind he may be required to withdraw from the Uni-
versity.
A student must pass at least 50 per cent of his work
each term; failure for two successive terms shall au-
tomatically cause the student to be dropped, provided
Unexcused absences will be counted against a student who is
in arrears on the payment of dues, dating from the time when
payment is due.
48 Oglethorpe University
however that if such student has registered for the
ensuing term he may continue until the completion
thereof, and if he shall have exhibited a marked im-
provement in his studies, the Dean of his department
may recommend to the faculty the continuance of such
student.
WITHDRAWALS
No withdrawal from the University can be consid-
ered as duly authorized unless a student officially no-
tifies the Dean of the University at the time of with-
drawal. Mere absence from school or non-attendance
upon any class cannot be construed as definite with-
drawal. If the reasons for withdrawal are acceptable
to the Dean, the student's withdrawal is approved, re-
corded, and dated; and the student is entitled to "hon-
orable dismissal."
Courses of Instruction and
Requirements for Degrees
In the session of 1942-43 Oglethorpe University will
offer courses in the undergraduate classes of eight
schools leading to the customary academic degrees.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) in Liberal Arts
will be conferred upon those students satisfactorily
completing a four years' course as outlined below, based
largely on the study of the languages. The degree of
Bachelor of Arts in Science will be conferred upon
those students who satisfactorily complete a four years'
course largely in scientific studies. The degree of
Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Journalism will be
given to those students who complete a course including
work in languages, literature and journalism. The de-
Oglethorpe University 49
gree of Bachelor of Arts in Commerce will be conferred
upon those students who satisfactorily complete a full
four years' course in the studies relating particularly
to the business administration. The degree of Bachelor
or Arts in Education will be conferred upon those stu-
dents who complete the studies in the School of Edu-
cation. The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Secretarial
Preparation will be conferred upon those students who
complete the studies in that School.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Fine Arts will
be given to those students who complete the require-
ments in the School of Fine Arts. A diploma, but not a
degree, is given to students completing a two-year course
in Art.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts in Physical Educa-
tion will be given to those students specializing in that
department.
By a careful study of the courses outlined below, the
student will easily be able to make the choice most suit-
able to his taste and probable future life.
In general, it may be suggested that students pre-
paring to enter such professions as the ministry or law,
will choose the A.B. course in Liberal Arts; those look-
ing forward to medicine, dentistry, engineering and
other scientific work, the A.B. course in Science; those
expecting to enter the literary and journalistic field,
the A.B. course in Literature, and those who intend to
spend their lives in the business world, the A.B. course
in Commerce, or the A.B. course in Secretarial Prepara-
tion; those who expect to teach, the A.B. course in Edu-
cation.
While each of these courses is so shaped as to in-
fluence the student toward a certain end, colored
largely by the type of studies, yet each course will be
found to include such subjects of general culture as are
50 Oglethorpe University
necesary to the making of a life as distinguished from
a living.
Graduates of standard normal schools or junior col-
leges are admitted to the junior class.
Quality Points, Credits, Graduation
The following system of Quality Points has been
adopted:
Superior A (90-99) 3 quality points for each year
hour.
Good B (80-89) 2 quality points for each year
hour.
Fair C (70-79) 1 quality point for each year hour.
Passing D (60-69) no quality points.
Condition E (50-59) re-examination.
Failure F (below 50) no re-examination.
Inc. Incomplete.
In the junior division of the college 30 quality points
must have been achieved before the student is recog-
nized as being in the senior dvision. The student lack-
ing the required 30 points will be required to remain
in the junior college until the needed quality points
have been achieved through further studies. For gradua-
tion in the senior college the student must have achiev-
ed 30 additional quality points for graduation and the
degree. Transfer students must achieve 15 quality
points for each year spent in study in Oglethorpe Uni-
versity.
No fractional credits made either in Oglethorpe Uni-
versity or by transcript from another institution will be
recognized for graduation in any freshman or sophom*ore
subject.
All transfer credits in order to be acceptable to Ogle-
thorpe University must come from standard institutions
of at least junior college or normal grade.
Oglethorpe University 51
Correspondence and extension credits combined will
be accepted to 25 per cent of the total requirements for
the degree.
In determining the rating of both high schools and
colleges for any year the university is governed by the
rulings of the department of Education of the State of
Georgia.
Definite official transcripts are required for admis-
sion both to the graduate and under-graduate divis-
ions.
A student who has had two years of a modern lan-
guage in high school cannot receive credit for Fresh-
man work in that language.
All diplomas and degrees of Oglethorpe University are
granted upon the basis of credits for regular class room
attendance and the successful passing of examinations.
No credits are given for any form of private instruction
nor for any course in which the student was not formally
registered. All courses for which credits are given
must be advertised in the catalogue or filed in advance
in writing with the Registrar by the Dean of the Depart-
ment in which they are offered and approved by the
President of the University, and must be announced by
bulletin as available to any and all students qualified
to take them under catalogue regulations. All classes
must be met in regular class rooms provided therefor by
the University. No credit for any form of work done,
other than as described above, will be granted.
APPLICATION FOR DEGREES
Candidates for graduation must file with the Regis-
trar, at least a month before the time of graduatoin,
a written application, by filling out a blank form prepar-
ed for the purpose. The student is held responsible for
filing this application.

University Expenses
TUITION
No charges are made for the usual College fees such
as matriculation, laboratories, infirmary, contingent,
and use of library.
The charge for tuition is $80.00 per term, $240.00
per academic year of approximately nine months. For
this sum a student is entitled to take from 1 2 to 17 credit
hours of work per week. No student is permitted to take
less than 12 hours per week and those students who take
more than 17 credit hours per week are required to pay
for the extra hours at the rate of $15.00 per hour. These
sums are payable in cash in advance, at the beginning
of each term, but the Cashier is given the authority,
when a student has proven that his credit is good, to
allow that student to pay one half of the charges at the
beginning of the term and the other half on or before
a date which the Cashier will set and which will not be
later than the middle of the term. This means of paying
tuition fee is applicable also to charges for board and
room rent.
In the Adult Education Department, charges are
$13.50 for Vi course, subject to discount of one-third
to teachers, $9.00 per half course, r\e\. The summer
school charges for 1942 are the same as charges in
Adult Education Department. Room, $36.00 for the
entire summer term or $18.00 for each half. Board,
$90.00 for entire summer term or $45.00 for each half.
Relatives and friends who do not attend college classes
may board in the dormitories by paying the regular
"oom rent and board charges.
Oglethorpe University 53
Students holding self help positions are not allowed
liy additional discount on bills or permitted to hold
iny other self help job or scholarships. This does not
include N.Y.A. Scholarships.
Board and Room Rent
The dormitory facilities of Oglethorpe University are
among the safest and most comfortable of those of
cognate institutions in America. All permanent build-
ings of the University will be like those now finished,
which are believed to be entirely fireproof, being con-
structed of steel, concrete, and granite with partitions of
brick and hollow tile.
The rates named are based upon two grades of rooms.
The charge for rent is based on the size and conven-
iences of each room. The price charged includes first
class board, steam heat and electric lights, water and
janitor's service; all rooms are furnished adequately and
substantially. Every room in the dormitory contains
ample closet and |or wardrobe space. The rooms are
large, airy, safe and comfortable.
The furniture is of substantial quality and is ap-
proximately the same for all rooms, including chiffon-
ier, study-table, chairs, single beds, springs and mat-
tresses. Room linen, pillows and bed clothing are fur-
nished by the student. Application for rooms should
be made as early as possible. For reservation of room
inclose $5.00 reservation fee (non-returnable) to be
credited on first payment for room rent.
All students rooming in the dormitories are required
also to board at the college cafeteria and any student
not rooming on the college campus may take his or her
54 Oglethorpe University
meals at the cafeteria. Students employed by the Uni-
versity must board and room on the campus.
The charge for board and room rent per term is as
follows:
Board: The minimum charge for board is $90.00
per term. This is furnished in the form of meal tickets.
Additional tickets may be purchased by the student if
desired. No rebate is given on unused meal tickets,
and no transfer of use of meal tickets from one term
to another is allowed. The University assumes no re-
sponsibility for, and will not replace, any meal tickets
which may be lost or mutilated. All charges are pay-
able in advance by the term, of approximatetly eleven
weeks as per college calendar, and no rebate is allowed
for any reason. The particular attention of the student
is called to the fact that the issuance of these meal
tickets is for their convenience, solely; that they are
good only for meals taken during the term for which
they are issued and that the minimum charge for them
is $90.00 for each term, and is not subject to rebate of
any kind on account of failure of students to use the
tickets which are furnished them.
Room Rent: Minimum charge for room rent is $36
per term, two to a room.
Charges: The University reserves the right to raise
or lower any and all charges, to discontinue any and
all discounts and scholarships, to cancel any and all
contracts for self-help work and to lower or raise cafe-
teria prices at will, as conditions may require.
All charges are based upon and payable by the term,
in advance, not by the month or year. The lengths of
terms are specified in the college calendar. When
payments are permitted under special conditions the
Oglethorpe University 55
obligation of the student to meet deferred payments
is not thereby impaired. Such special privileges of
payment will be withdrawn in all cases where the stu-
dent fails to make settlement without previous billing
or notice. A penalty of $5.00 is assessed on all stu-
dents attending classes or any examination without
having settled their account in advance and $1 per day
for delayed registration of Winter and Spring terms.
If a student attends a single class, or occupies a dor-
mitory room for a single night or purchases a cafe-
teria ticket, the contract for that term is thus made
binding and no rebate of any kind will be allowed on
board (cafeteria meal tickets), room rent, tuition or
college fees for that term.
The minimum charges for board and room rent are
set at figures which years of experience have indicated
to be suitable to the average student. This is especially
true of board which is set low to suit many students who
so desire it. Those whose requirements are greater are
expected to purchase extra tickets.
The University discourages the occupation of one
room by more than two students and no reduction
in room rent is permitted on that account except in the
case of very large rooms furnished barracks style.
The University cafeteria furnishes a liberal assort-
ment of food at moderate prices, varying with the Atlanta
market.
ACTIVITY FEE
Upon petition of the Student Body, a special stu-
dent activity fee of $10.00 per term will be charged
for the session beginning September, 1942. The $30.00
fee will entitle the student to a subscription of the week-
56 Oglethorpe University
\y student paper, The Stormy Petrel ($1 .50 per year) and
The Yamacraw, (student year book), and to ten tickets
to each of the football games played at Hermance Sta-
dium during the autumn of 1942. These tickets, the
students are at liberty to sell or use for their friends
and guests.
In addition to the above, a season's pass will be given
to each student, admitting him or her, without further
charge, to all baseball, basketball and other athletic
contests played on the campus of the University during
the above mentioned session.
FINES
A penalty of $1.00 will be charged each student
moving articles of furniture from one room to another
without permission from either the Bursar's office or the
Cashier's office. This fine will also be charged any
student changing his room without permission from
the office.
A fine of $1.00 a day (up to one-third of the term)
will be charged for late registration. Winter and Spring
terms.
A fine of $5.00 is charged if any student attends
a class or examination without registration, which in-
cludes advance payment of charges.
Infirmary
The University maintains at all times an excellent
infirmary, with a nurse in attendance, for the prompt
treatment of accidents and of such cases of sickness
as may occur. By this means prolonged and serious illness
Oglethorpe University 57
can often be prevented. There is a University physician
who can be secured on short notice when his services
are needed. Students whose medical needs exceed the
facilities of the infirmary find every requirement satis-
fied by the hospitals of the city.
The University makes no charge to the students for
infirmary service, which includes also the attendance
of the college physician in the infirmary. In case of
special illness requiring operations or the services of
specialists, while the University frequently isabletosecure
reduced rates for students, yet" we assume no re-
sponsibility beyond such services as our college physician
and college infirmary are able to render. This includes
such accidents and injuries arising from participation in
inter-collegiate sports, as they may feel competent to
treat, in which case a special consideration is offered
as specified elsewhere.
Directions to New Students
Students coming to Oglethorpe University from a
distance should remember that Oglethorpe University
has its own station on the main line of the Southern
Railway between Atlanta and Washington. Tickets
may be purchased and baggage checked to Oglethorpe
University, Georgia, the station being immediately in
front of the campus. Students coming to Atlanta over
other lines may re-check their baggage to the University
station, or may have it delivered at a special rate by
the Atlanta Baggage and Cab Co. In using the latter
method mention should always be made of the special
students' rate at the time the order is given.
Students arriving at any of the Railway or Bus ter-
minals in Atlanta may board "Oglethorpe" street buses
at the points listed below. This method of trans-
5S Oglethorpe University
portation is much more economical than by taxicab.
Students arriving at the Terminal Station in Atlanta
may walk a distance of five blocks (down Mitchell Street
to Broad Street Street, up Broad Street to the southwest
corner of Broad and Walton Streets) and board the bus.
Students arriving at the Union Station may walk a
distance of three blocks, to Broad and Walton and
board the bus.
Students arriving at the Union Bus Terminal may
walk a distance of two blocks (up Carnegie Way to
Peachtree Street, up Peachtree Street one block to a
safety zone) and board the same bus at this point.
Fares on busses in Atlanta are ten cents for one
fare (cash) or two tokens for fifteen cents. These tok-
ens may be purchased from the bus operator.
Summer Session
The summer session of Oglethorpe University meets
the requirements of regular students who desire to speed
up their courses or to make up work that is unsatis-
factory. It also serves a large number of teachers
working toward degrees.
All summer courses are credited toward the attain-
ment of a degree, and afford a convenient way to speed
up the date of graduation. The work is given in courses
and half courses. One course is equivalent to one and
two-third year hours or three and one-third semester
hours. Write for bulletin of Summer Session.
Graduate School
It is the purpose of Oglethorpe University to de-
velop a thoroughly excellent Graduate School, offering
Oglethorpe University 59
courses in all departments leading to the Master's degree.
In supplying this need, the management of the Uni-
versity will be content only with the very highest grades
of work and facilities.
Courses leading to the Master's degree in certain
departments will be found outlined elsewhere in this
catalogue, under the appropriate department heading.
This degree is based upon that of Bachelor of Arts
of Oglethorpe University or of some other approved
institution. The candidate must carry an aggregate
of fifteen hours or nine courses of graduate work, with
at least two professors. A course is equivalent to one
and two-thirds year hours. One-half course equals
five-sixths of a year hour. Transfer credits (maximum
three and one-third year hours) will be allowed. The
work must be of graduate grade, and must be approved
by the Dean of the Graduate School and the Registrar.
In addition a thesis is required. But the degree is not
guaranteed at the end of a fixed period of time. A certain
amount of work must be accomplished, and the quality
of it must be such as to satisfy the professors concerned
and the whole faculty.
Students entering the graduate school in selecting
their major courses must be present not less than two
years (six year hours of 4 courses) of under-graduate
work in the same or closely related subjects evidenced
by official transcripts from standard institutions, rec-
ognized as such by the Department of Education of the
State of Georgia. In addition to this the student must
have had one year (three year hours or 2 courses) of
work in any subject selected as a minor.
A minimum of fifteen college hours or 9 courses and
a minimum of one year (nine months) of residence is
required for the Master's degree. A minimum of one
year or approximately nine months' residence is re-
60 Oglethorpe University
quired for the Bachelor's degree. Of the fifteen hours
or nine courses required for the Master's degree, not
less than nine year hours or five and one-half courses
shall be devoted to the major subject and the balance
selected by the advice and counsel of the Dean of the
department in which the student is working. In addition
a satisfactory thesis must be presented to the Faculty
Committee upon a subject approved by them and filed
with the Committee not less than ten days before the
date of graduation. Three additional hours may be
taken in iieu of a thesis.
The Registrar of the University will be pleased to
answer any inquires as to graduate courses to be offered.
CONDITIONS FOR CONTINUED ATTENDANCE
It being the purpose of the University to offer its
services only to those students who by their appli-
cation and conduct show their appreciation of their op-
portunities and also to protect its patrons from the
demoralizing influences of indifferent and undesirable
students, the University will at its own discretion and
without further explanation, exercise the right to decline
re-registration at the beginning of any term to those
students who, in the opinion of the appointed officials
are not making satisfactory campus citizens.
In pursuance of this purpose, a complete list of the
student body is presented at the close of each term to
the deans of the University, to the dean of women, to
the librarian, to the bursar, matron, cashier, football
coach, superintendent, registrar and to the president of
the student body with directions that each of them
should canvass the list and set a mark opposite the
name of any student who, in their opinion, has definitely
failed in any of the following points:
Oglethorpe University 61
1 Continued failure to attend classes, including the
Tuesday assembly.
2 Continued failure in their classroom work and
inattention and misbehavior in the classrooms and at
assembly exercises.

School of Liberal Arts
Leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the
Liberal Arts
G. F. Nicolassen, Dean
This course of study is intended to encourage es-
pecially the study of languages, ancient and modern.
No Latin is required for entrance or for graduation.
But at least one year of Latin is very desirable for the
better understanding of English words and English gram-
mar. Such a course may be taken in college.
Considerable variety is possible in following the
curriculum on page 69, as there are two sections of
English 1, two in Spanish 1, and the languages may be
taken in almost any order. But this arrangement should
be followed in the main to avoid conflict of classes in
the later years. Each student in the Liberal Arts
course should consult the Dean at the very beginning and
have his work mapped out for the whole four years.
At least one year of German and one year of French
will be required either in High School or in College.
Any subject that has been taken in High School must
be replaced by an elective.
Latin 111-2-3.* For entrance into this class the stu-
dents are expected to have had at least three years of
Explanation of Course Numbers

for those who wish to teach Latin. Twice a week
throughout the year. Elective. Two hours.
Greek
Greek 111-2-3. Preparatory. This course is designed
not merely for those who have no previous knowledge
of the language, but also for those whose preparation
is inadequate. The most important subjects, both in
inflection and syntax, are presented early in the course
and then by a system of weekly reviews, are kept
constantly fresh.
Text-Books: White's First Greek Book, Xenophon's
Anabasis (Goodwin and White). Three times a week

Greek 211-2-3. The preparation for entrance into
numbers donate senior subjects. All courses above five hun-
dred are graduate courses.
The second figure in a course number denotes the sequence,
there being nine possible courses in each subject in the fresh-
man, sophom*ore, junior, and senior divisions. For instance,
English 121 is a freshman subject offered in the first term^
and is the second English course listed in the catalogue.
The last figure in the course number denotes the term one
signifying the first or autumn term; two signifying the second
or winter term, and three the spring or third term. For in-
the n firsf "frm 11 1U is a freshman course in English given in
Oglethorpe University 65
this class is not so much a matter of time as of tho-
-oughness. The student is expected to know the ordi-
nary Attic inflections and syntax, to have read about
3ne book of the Anabasis, and to have had consider-
able practice in translating English into Greek.
A part of the work of this class consists of the min-
ute study of the verbs, their principal parts, synopsis
of tenses, and inflection of certain portions.
Written translations of English into Greek are re-
quired once a week. On the other days a short oral
exercise of this kind forms a part of the lesson; so that
in each recitation some practice is had in translating
English into Greek. Elective. Two hours.
Text-Books: Xenophon's Anabasis (Goodwin and
White), Memorabilia, Adams's Lysias, Goodwin's Greek
Grammar, Pearson's Greek Prose Composition, Myers's
Eastern Nations and Greece, Liddell and Scott's Greek

Graduate Courses in Latin and Greek
511-2-3. Those who are thinking of taking gradu-
ate courses are advised to write to the President or to
the Professor, that their preliminary studies may be so
guided as to fit them for the work. The requirements
for entrance into these courses are given elsewhere in
this catalogue, under the head of Graduate School.
In Latin the following course is offered for the A.M.,

School of Literature and Journalism
J. D. Mosteller, Acting Dean
The work in the School of Literature and Journalism
is based upon two groups of courses, either one of
which leads to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Al-
though Latin is not required for entrance, two or three
years of Latin are desirable.
A small number of electives are permitted students.
However, these electives must have a definite relation
to the complete course which the student is pursuing
toward a degree.
The group of courses which centers in the study of
English has the two fold purpose of giving students
command over the use of their own tongue in both
speaking and writing, and of familiarizing them with
those aspects of English literature which are usually
treated in undergraduate courses. These courses also
constitute an excellent basis for the one-year speciali-
zation in English language and literature which leads to
the degree of Master of Arts.
The second group of courses features training in
journalism. Students who elect this group are expected
to pursue the basic courses in literature, history, econo-
mics, political science, and sociology.
English
English 1 1 1-2-3. Composition. This required fresh-
man course combines extended practice in writing with
the reading of modern prose and poetry. The chief
object of this course is to teach the student to arrange
his thoughts clearly and present them with force. Con-
tinual emphasis is laid on increasing the store of words.
72 Oglethorpe University
No student will be permitted to take advanced work in
English until he has made a satisfactory record in this
basic course. Three hours.
English 141-2-3. English Bible. Old Testament. A
survey study of the major books of the Old Testament.
Special emphasis is placed on the political development
of Israel as found in the Pentatetuch and the books of
history. The Poetical Books and Prophetic Books will
be studied not only as literature, but as links paving the
way for the life of Jesus, as recorded in the New Testa-
ment. Two hours.
English 21 1-2-3. Survey of English Literature. This
course comprises: an examination of the history of this
literature; the study in class and the reading of parallel
representative literary specimens of its entire develop-
ment; consideration of the various types of literature;
analysis of the various forms; study of the elements of
versification. This course is designed to complete the
student's general study of literature and to introduce
him to specialized literary subjects. Consequently, sat-
isfactory completion of this course is prerequisite to
courses offered for juniors and seniors. Three hours.
English 221-2-3. Technique of Journalism. A pro-
fessional course designed for students of journalism. It
is elective for juniors and seniors in other schools who
satisfy the dean of this school, in advance, concerning
their qualifications. In addition to editing, this course
will cover writing of the news story, the magazine ar-
ticle, and the special feature story. Five hours.
English 23 1 -2-3 . Theory and Practice of Public Speak-
ing. This course is designed primarily as a prepara-
tion for and an aid to practical speaking on all kinds of
formal and informal occasions. This course is re-
Oglethorpe University 73
quired in the School of Literature and Journalism. Two
hours.
English 251-2-3. English Bible. New Testament.
The study will include the mastery of the history con-
tained in the Bible, an analysis of each book and such
other matters as are required for the proper under-
standing of the work. It will not be treated from a sec-
tarian point of view, or as mere history or literature.
The aim will be to impart such a knowledge of the
subject as every intelligent man should possess, enab-
ling him to read his Bible with pleasure and profit. An
effort will be made to give students the proper defense
of seeming difficulties in the Bible, both for their own
benefit and in behalf of their ability to meet objections
of unbelievers. Two hours.
English 351-2-3. Mythology and Etymology. The
first two terms will be devoted to the study of Mythol-
ogy, so that readers of English literature may be able
to understand allusions to classical stories.
The third term of this course is designed to show the
origin of English words derived from Greek and Latin,
especially scientific terms. Students looking forward to
medicine will find this course particularly helpful. No
knowledge of either Latin or Greek is required for en-
trance. Two hours.
English 361-2-3. Shakespeare. A brief considera-
tion of the development of the English drama before
Shakespeare; an intensive study of at least five plays
of Shakespeare. Prerequisites, English 111-2-3 and
211-2-3. Three hours.
English 381-2-3. American Literature. Those as-
pects of our literature and its history which are covered
in this course are: the colonial writers and the develop-
74 Oglethorpe University
ment of early American literature; the literature of
the Revolution and of our national development; the
most prominent writers and movements in American
literature of the last two generations. Prerequisites,
English 1 1 1-2-3 and 21 1-2-3. Three hours.
English 421-2-3. Descriptive English Grammar. All
qualified students who propose to teach in the graded
schools or the high schools should elect this course.
Prerequisites, English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3 or the con-
sent of the dean. Three hours.
English 431-2-3. Argumentation and Debate. An
advanced public speaking course, this class emphasizes
the logical and factual presentation of speeches. In ad-
dition to a workbook on debate and discussion, a study
is made of such necessary subjects as: the proposition,
gathering material, refutation, the brief and outlining,
with a special study of formal debate. The winter term
consists of class debates on timely resolutions. Pre-
requisite, English 231-2-3. Two hours.
English 461-2-3. English Poetry of the Nineteenth
Century. After a brief survey of the pre-romantic writ-
ers and some consideration of the individual contribu-
tions to poetry by Blake and Burns, the chief attention
of this course will be directed to those poets who have
made the nineteenth century notable in English poetry.
Poets particularly emphasized are: Wordsworth, Col-
eridge, Byron, Keats, and Shelley. This course is re-
quired of all seniors who take the English major. It
should be elected by advanced, qualified students who
desire a distinctly cultural course or who expect to teach.
Prerequisites, English 111-2-3 and 211-2-3. Three
hours.

104 Oglethorpe University
losophy, the President of the University will meet the
Senior Class one hour per week, Thursday at 1 1 :30 in a
seminar covering the story of human life following the
broad outlines of Astronomy, Geology, Paleontology,
Embrylogy, Anthropology and Archaeology. The course
closes with a study of the first ten chapters of Genesis
in relation to modern discoveries. It is especially de-
signed to give the graduates of Oglethorpe University
a conception of the harmony between religion and mod-
ern science and is required of all fourth year students.
It is believed that this work of co-ordination of modern
science with religion can best be done in the fourth
year class, to the end that in harmonizing the truths
learned their faith may not be unsettled. One hour.
Sociology 501-2. Marriage; The Family and its In-

the proper relationships in life, and in inquiry of the
institutions growing out of family life. (Not offered in
1942-43.)
Appreciation of Music 511-2-3. An inquiry into the
evolution of music from the earliest times to the pres-
ent. The plan contemplated is a combination of his-
tory, musical form, and appreciation. While the his-
torical phase is interesting, and an understanding of
musical form appeals to the intellectual and scientific,
the main object is to cultivate increased appreciation
of its beauty and of its power as an instrument of ex-
pression. The course will introduce simple and prim-
itive forms with explanations and illustrations. This
will be followed in proper sequence by the folk songs,
the dance form, the suite, grand opera, oratorio, and
the symphony. Attention will be given to instrumenta-
tion and the development of the modern orchestra. Il-
lustrative material will be supplied by the living voice,
Oglethorpe University 105
the piano, and the recently perfected forms of electri-
cal recording. The course will be semi-laboratory in its
presentation. Those taking the course for college credit
may present it as an elective for any degree, if ap-
proved by the dean of the school.
Music 52/ -2. A course designed for teachers to
aid the teachers in presenting new songs. It will pre-
sent an elementary study of the instruments used in
bands and orchestras. The course is for teachers who
have but slight knowledge of music, but wish to begin
preparation for introducing music into their schools.
Offered only in the summer session to the students in
adult education. Six times per week for the entire ses-
sion. Credit two hours or two courses.
106 Oglethorpe University
The School of Education
H. J. Gaertner, Dean
Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in Education
The school of Education is both an undergraduate
and a graduate school. A number of graduates from
such schools in Oglethorpe University as well as other
colleges have entered the teaching profession. Much
of the work being psychological and humanistic, the dis-
cipline of this school is a preparation for various lines
of work beside that of teaching. The school is a good
preparation for dealing with all forms of human con-
tact sides of like work. We especially recommend
the courses in shorthand and typewriting to be taken
as part of the electives in the third or fourth year or
earlier by students preparing for secretarial careers, or
commercial teaching in high schools.
Students in the Department of Education upon en-
tering the University Division (third and fourth years)
or previously thereto, are required to designate the sub-
ject which they expect to teach, which thereby becomes
their major subject. From nine to twelve year hours of
college work are required of them in said subject for
graduation, or, by special permission of the Dean of
the School of Education in two closely related subjects.

Oglethorpe University 109
Adult Education Division
The School of Adult Education has been and is giv-
ing a variety of courses to meet the needs of teachers.
These will vary v/ith the needs and wishes of the stu-
dent. In each case, the student's course will be plan-
ned by the Dean of the School and the Registrar.
In order to conform to the measurement of most
schools of this type, Oglethorpe University in Septem-
ber, 1939, adopted the "course system". A course is
equivalent to 1 2-3 year hours, 3 1-3 semester hours,
or 5 quarter hours.
Most of the subjects are given in half courses, for
the convenience of the students. The time consumed
by each half course is two clock hours per week. By
taking two half courses each term a teacher will earn
the three courses or five year hours allowed by the State
Department of Education to teachers in service. To
earn this amount of credit (3 courses) she will spend
four clock hours per week in the classroom for three
terms.
For the A.B., in Education degree, the student must
fulfill the following requirements:
Education 6 courses (10 year hours)
English 3 courses ( 5 year hours)
Foreign Language 3 courses ( 5 year hours)
Science 3 courses ( 5 year hours)
Social Science 3 courses ( 5 year hours)
(History, Sociology, Eco-
nomics, Geography, and
Political Science)
Electives 18 courses (30 year hours)
Total 36 courses or 60 year hours
To meet our residence requirement, a minimum of
nine courses or fifteen year hours must be taken with
Oglethorpe University. No exception is ever made to
this requirement.
There are two very important rules to which all Aduit
110 Oglethorpe University
Education students must conform. They are as follows:
1 . Not more than one-fourth of the credit required
for a degree may be secured by extension or corre-
spondence work. The total amount of credit allowed
on an A. B. degree by extension and correspondence
work combined is nine courses or fifteen (15) year
hours.
2. Teachers in service are allowed only three courses
(5 year hours) per year during the time they are ac-
tually engaged in teaching. Therefore, no student in
the Adult Education Division of the University will be
given credit for more than three (3) courses or five
year hours for the scholastic year unless he or she has
filed with the Registrar a written statement that ex-
empts the student from the enforcement of this rule.
Unless written proof that they are entitled to addition-
al work has been filed in the Registrar's office, Adult
Education students will automatically receive credit for
only three courses during the scholastic year, and only
the three courses will be transferred to the Certifica-
tion Department. This, of course, does not apply to
summer school work.
Requirements for Master of Arts Degree
The Master's degree is based on the Bachelor's de-
gree. To enter our graduate school, a student must
have received a Bachelor's degree from a standard in-
stitution. A formal application for entrance to the
graduate school must be filled out and filed in the
Registrar's office before any graduate courses can be
taken.
The minimum requirement for the Master's degree
is nine courses or fifteen year hours, together with an
approved thesis. If the student prefers, however, he
may take two full courses in lieu of a thesis. In that
Oglethorpe University 111
case, he must complete eleven (11) full courses for the
M. A. degree.
Of the nine courses required for the M. A. degree,
five and one-half courses must be in the major subject,
and three and one-half may be elective. If the student
chooses two additional courses in place of a thesis, these
courses may be elective.
All work for the Master's degree must be of senior
college or graduate level; that is, courses numbered
three hundred or above. Students taking senior col-
lege courses along with undergraduate students will be
required to do additional work for graduate credit.
Two courses (3 1-3 year hours) of graduate level may
be transferred from other standard institutions.
Expenses
Charges for tuition will be at the rate of $9.00 per
half course, or $18.00 for a full course. All charges
are payable in advance. However, arrangements can
be made to divide this into two payments per term.
Summer School
Oglethorpe University offers a summer quarter di-
vided into two terms of five and one-half weeks each.
Classes meet six days per week.
Two courses each term or four courses during the
quarter of eleven weeks is the regular amount of cred-
it earned. A course is equivalent to 1 2-3 year hours
or 3 1-3 semester hours. By these plans teachers com-
bining the year's work and summer school attendance
will be able to receive their degree in a reasonable length
of time.

son, Registrar, Oglethorpe University, Ga., or Dr. H. J.

The School of Physical Education
John W. Patrick, Dean
FOREWORD
It is a generally accepted fact that physical educa-
tion has a definite function in education. It has to do
largely with the building of character and the ability of
the individual to find himself, to make the proper social
adjustments in the world of which he is a part. To in-
still these principles into the youth of this nation should
be the primary objective of all physical educators.
The acceptance, however, of the idea that physical
education is a part of education and the constant at-
tempt to interpret its aim, objectives, and results in
terms of educational worth lead physical educators to
measure their methods in relation to current practices
in the general field.
Physical education moves forward, and with the rap-
id growth of health interest in the United States of Am-
erica, there is a distinct need for leadership in order
that the movement in Health and Physical Education
may be made effective by proper guidance. Teacher
training in physical education is being emphasized by
every leading college and university in the United States,
by giving the right kind of instruction through well
rounded curricula, and for producing trained leaders
with the highest ideals and objectives.
The School of Physical Education at Oglethorpe Uni-
versity realize that there is a great demand for phy-
sical educators in every community, in elementary and
high schools, colleges and universities, and the United
States Armed Forces. We have outlined a splendid
curriculum, offering courses in every phase pertaining
to professional study in the field of physical education,
120 Oglethorpe University
the completion of which will lead to a degree of Bach-
elor of Arts in the School of Physical Education.
The purpose of the School of Physical Education is
two-fold: To train, protect, and develop the bodies
of all the students of the university, and to offer a
special training, equipping for positions as phyysical di-
rectors and coaches in other schools, colleges and uni-
versities, the United States Navy and Army, and in Y.
M. C. A.'s.
A regular curriculum has been arranged offering in-
struction in specific subjects for the special preparation
of students for positions as physical directors and as
coaches in high schools, prep schools and universities,
the completion of which will lead to a degree of Bach-
elor of Arts in the School of Physical Education.
The science courses are designed especially for stu-
dents of Physical Education. The courses are planned
to awaken in the student an interest that shall be more
compelling than that of a prescribed course. To this
end instruction is based in so far as possible on direct
observation made in demonstration. Each organ is
studied with reference to its development, anatomy,
and physiology. Bones, muscles, viscera, etc., have
meaning when introduced in the light of their develop-
ment. The facts observed are discussed in lectures
and quizzes. Free use is made of charts, models, an-
atomical preparations and microscopic slides. Weekly
quizzes are supplemented by written tests given upon
the completion of some general division of the subject.
We strive to attain the following objectives in phy-
sical education: To teach health fundamentals. The
promotion of normal physical growth and development,
and the building up of physical efficiency, strength,
and endurance by means of carefully chosen exercises
formal gymnastics, games, sports, etc. To correct
Oglethorpe University 121
faulty posture and to prevent abnormalities due to bad
posture. To develop the mental, moral, and social val-
ues; such as obedience, subordination, co-operation,
self-control, self-confidence, loyalty, friendliness, per-
severance and aggresgsiveness. To develop neuromus-
cular control. To develop the desire for activity and to
instill the desire for recreation, by stimulating an in-
terest for academic and physical efficiency by occupy-
ing one's unoccupied time through wholesome games
and exercise.
English 1 1 1-2-3. Composition. This required fresh-
man course combines extensive practice in writing with
the reading of modern prose and poetry. The chief
object of this course is to teach the student to arrange
his thoughts clearly and present them with force. Con-
tinual emphasis is laid on increasing the store of words.
A vocabulary test is given near the beginning of the
fall term, to determine what progress each student has
made. All freshmen will be placed in sections in which
the work corresponds to their degree of development.
To this end all freshmen will be given a test on the day
preceding date of matriculation for the first quarter.
This test is a prerequisite to entrance to any section of
Freshman English. No student will be permitted to
take advanced work in English until he has made a
satisfactory record in this basic course. Three hours.
History and Principles of Physical Education 121-2-3.
Three lectures weekly throughout the year. This course
deals with the history of physical education in Europe
and the Orient. The course also deals with the history
of physical education in America. Primarily the aim
of this course is to relate the story of physical education

Scholarships for Athletics
We are constantly receiving inquiries from prospec-
tive students concerning "athletic scholarships." The
only scholarships offered by the University are given as
rewards for exceptional high school and college attain-
ment. The only way in which a football or baseball
player can receive aid at Oglethorpe is in the same way
that other students are aided, by such self-help jobs as
it may be possible for him to fill consistent with their
week-end absences. These positions pay from twenty
to forty cents per hour and if occupied industriously
and efficiently will cover the student's college expenses
in large part. The university must necessarily assign
self-help students taking part in inter-collegiate ath-
letics to such self-help positions as their engagements
may permit them to hold.
Our endeavor and policy is to treat all students ex-
actly alike, neither favoring nor discriminating against
a boy who happens to be a fine football player.
Rules -for Eligibility of Players in Inter-Collegiate Sports
at Oglethorpe University
1. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports
must be fully registered and qualified under the en-
trance requirements of the University as published in
the catalogue.
2. All students engaging in inter-collegiate sports
must carry at least twelve hours (24 semester hours)
of standard college work.
3. All students engaging in varsity inter-collegiate
sports must have passed not less than twelve hours of
work during the preceding year.
4. No student at Oglethorpe University shall be
shown any preferences financially or academically be-
Oglethorpe University 127
cause of engaging in inter-collegiate athletics but the
fact that the student engages in inter-collegiate sports
shall not prejudice his selection in self-help positions
open to all members of the student body.
5. Oglethorpe University will not under any circum-
stances permit the payment of any moneys for the ser-
vices of athletes, either by alumni, friends, or by the
college itself.
Historiogrophic Museum
This museum is now being established at Oglethorpe.
It is the first photographic museum in the world. It is
devoted entirely to the history of the United States as
illustrated by still, sound, and motion pictures. The
collection is already started at the University, and a
building will be built to house it and an organization
set in motion to carry on its work permanently. This
will provide the greatest collection of contemporary
American history available anywhere.

Athletics Hermance Field
The magnificent generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
P. Hermance in giving to Oglethorpe an Athletic Sta-
dium, makes feasible the development of all forms of
field sports, including not only the great games of
football and baseball, but also vaulting, jumping, dis-
cus and javelin throwing, track work, etc. Physical
culture for all students in required.
A sanely encouraging attitude is taken by the Uni-
versity toward intercollegiate athletics, and Oglethorpe
University is acquitting herself well in that sphere of
her educational life.
The policy of Oglethorpe University includes the
care of the physical life of our students as a matter
of large importance. Regular instruction, looking to
symmetrical development of the entire man will be giv-
en in the Athletic Department of the University, under
competent medical guidance. Special attention is at
present given to outdoor athletics. Adequate provision
is being made for football and baseball grounds, ten-
nis courts, etc. Work on Hermance Stadium has be-
gun and a section is finished providing accommoda-
tions for five thousand spectators and participants.
Lake Phoebe
Besides having those sports common to all well equip-
ped colleges in the South, Oglethorpe University is the
fortunate possessor of a beautiful lake covering eighty
acres located conveniently to the University campus,
with a part of its shores set aside for a university boat
house. This will enable the institution to add a crew
to its list of athletic sports. The lake is admirably suit-
ed for boating, rowing, swimming and fishing.
130 Oglethorpe University
Moral and Religious Atmosphere
The ability of a college or university to develop worthy
character in its students depends largely upon that in-
definable quality called college atmosphere. As a
mother, she breathes her own soul into her boys. They
inherit all she has been through, all of her labor and
strength and faith and prayer. If her judgments have
been bought out with money, they inherit that; if with
blood, they inherit that. Every storm through which
she has passed strengthens them for their own conflicts
in the days that are to come.
Oglethorpe is a daughter of battle and faith and
prayer. God alone built her, touching the hearts of
multitudes of His children at the voice of her call.
Alone of all the prominent ante-bellum universities she
died for her ideals, and her alone of all the universities
of America, God raised from the dead.
By her every battle, her every faith, her every tri-
umph, she has learned what things are really worth
while and what hand really to lean upon. She will tell
her children of Him.
Libraries
By the generosity of many friends, so great as to
be almost unparalleled, and by purchase from special
funds provided, the university received during the first
year of its life approximately fifty thousand volumes
for the library. These consist of standard works of Lit-
erature, History and Science, with many valuable ref-
erence works in special departments. The private li-
braries of Dr. Aldrich in Science; of Dr. Nicolassen in
the Classics and of Dr. Burrows in Education are all
available for the use of the students in these depart-
ments. The policy of the institution is to let no year
Oglethorpe University 131
go by without the enlargement of the library. A com-
petent librarian is in charge, and the rooms will be
open during the year of 1942-43 from 8:30 A.M., to
9:30 P.M. The Carnegie Library of Atlanta is also
available for the use of our students.
King Library of English
By the splendid generosity of Dr. Cheston King the
university has a library of English with some seventeen
thousand books and pamphlets.
Special Religious Services
Regular assembly exercises which the students are
required to attend, are conducted by each of the mem-
bers of the faculty in turn. During the last three years
daily preaching services have been held for one or two
weeks in the Oglethorpe Auditorium.
Oglethorpe Coat-of-Arms
Among the unique honors offered at the university
is the presentation of a sweater with the Coat-of-Arms
blazoned thereon, which will be awarded in the future
under the terms of the following resolution unanimous-
ly adopted by the Faculty of the university, upon rec-
ommendation of the President:
"Resolved, that on and after September 1st, 1922,
the Coat-of-Arms of Oglethorpe University shall be giv-
en to those students carrying a minimum of fifteen
hours weekly, of excellent personal character and con-
duct, whose general average for all the courses taken
during five preceding consecutive terms shall have been
not less than 93, or who, in lieu of said general average,
132
Oglethorpe University
shall have so distinguished themselves in some intel-
lectual, creative, or constructive accomplishment as to
entitle them thereto in the judgment of the faculty."

Roll of Honor
Students who make an average of 90 in any term are plac-
ed on the Roll of Honor, and their names are announced in
the Tuesday Public Assembly.
The Oglethorpe Idea
Quality is the word that expersses the Oglethorpe
idea quality in location, in climate, in campus, in ar-
chitecture, in student character, in college life, in ath-
letics and sports, in faculty, in curriculum and in re-
ligion and morals. Every one of these we offer at Ogle-
thorpe.
Located in the commercial and educational capital
of the South, with an unrivaled climate, on the most
distinguished street in that city, on a most beautiful
campus of over six hundred acres of woodland and
meadow, including an eighty acre lake which belongs
134 Oglethorpe University
to our students for swimming, boating and fishing,
the physical advantages offered by Oglethorpe Uni-
versity are unsurpassed anywhere in the section.
One by one a splendid body of buildings is being
erected on its campus. Every one of them will be of
granite trimmed with limestone and covered with va-
riegated slates. All of them v/ill be as fire proof as
human skill can make them, and as commodious and
comfortable as our architects can plan them. They
will be like the first buildings already erected, which
are believed to be the safest, most beautiful and most
efficient college or university buildings in the South-
east.
The Oglethorpe Site Atlanta
The attractions of the city of Atlanta as an educa-
tional center are fast making it one of the great in-
tellectual dynamos of the nation. Gifted with a soft
Southern mountain climate, convenient of access to
the entire nation over its many lines of railway, known
everywhere as the center of Southern activities, she
draws to herself as to a magnet the great minds of
the nation and the world. Hither come lecturers, mu-
sicians, statesmen, evangelists, editors, teachers and
officials of the United States. An intellectual atmos-
phere created by such conditions and the frequent op-
portunity of contact with these leaders in all branches
of human activity, offered frequently to our students,
give Oglethorpe University an advantage of position
and of opportunity which she will cultivate to the ut-
most. Facilities for hearing and meeting the great mu-
sicians and authors and public speakers and the leaders
in all spheres of intellectual activity are offered our
students. The tremendous influence of such contact
Oglethorpe University 135
upon the young lives committed to us will be felt in
their increased ambition and redoubled determination
to perform, themselves, their duty to their race and
their God.
Silent Faculty at Oglethorpe
It is not going too far to say that the aesthetic tastes
and home habits of many young men are ruined at
college by the cheap and unattractive furnishing of
their rooms and the ugly forbidding architecture of the
buildings, whose walls often deface their campus. The
architecture of an institution of learning should be a
constant source of delight and inspiration to its stu-
dents, teaching quietly but surely the highest ideals of
life. Indeed all those qualities of soul we know as hon-
esty, solidity, dignity, durability, reverence and beauty
may be expressed in the face of a building and are so
expressed on the Oglethorpe campus.
Not less important are the personal surroundings of
the student's room. Cheap, ugly and ill-equipped
apartments have exactly the same influence on the
soul of a boy that cheap, ugly and ill-equipped human
companions have. That is why the rooms at Ogle-
thorpe are entitled to the information and inspiration
such surroundings offer, and the sons of the rich will
deteriorate without them.
In brief the college education that does not teach a
love of beauty and tidiness and what is popularly call-
ed decency is essentially and dangerously defective.
This is the special work of the silent faculty at Ogle-
thorpe.
The Crypt of Civilization
Something new in the history of the world has taken
place at Oglethorpe University. This is the conception
136 Oglethorpe University
and inauguration of the most unique archeological pro-
ject in the history of mankind. It is also the integra-
tion and correlation of all known facts regarding our
civilization today, and the preservation of the result
of this research for the people who inhabit this world
sixty centuries hence.
As we look back into history, throughout the whole
known world, at no time in any country or in any civili-
zation has there been a conscious attempt to preserve
all the known facts regarding any nation or people so
that it may be passed on to posterity. Even if any
person had conceived of a project of this kind prior
to the last fifty years it would have been impossible to
have carried it out. Only modern advancement in
science has made this possible, and only one person in
the known history of the world ever visioned this stu-
pendous task.
It v/as not until in 1935 that Dr. Thornweil Jacobs,
the president of Oglethorpe University, while teaching
his Cosmic History class suddenly realized the above
fact. At first he put it aside as impracticable of ac-
complishment owing to the tremendous labor involved,
but the idea grew upon him, and he finally decided to
carry it out. In 1936 in consultation with Orson Munn,
of the Scientific American, a beginning was made, and
the Scientific American announced the project and in-
vited suggestions from scientists and laymen for carry-
ing out the work.
The Bureau of Standards at Washington was con-
sulted immediately for details of procedure. Dr. Ja-
cobs decided to place the time for the opening of the
"Crypt of Civilization", as he named it, as far in the
future as our written records go into the past, namely,
6,177 years, which would have made the time for the
unsealing A. D., 81 13.
Oglethorpe University 137
The Literary Digest, then edited by Mr. Pendray,
also announced the project and gave considerable space
to the story, which so impressed Editor Pendray that he
later "sold" the idea to the Westinghouse Company
for the "Time Capsule", which was a miniature edi-
tion of the Oglethorpe Crypt idea and which was buried
under the Westinghouse Building at the World's Fair.
Active preparation was commenced by Dr. Jacobs
to begin a collection of material for the Crypt. At
this time the New York Times published an article on
the Crypt idea and this came to the notice of a scientist
living in Salem, Ohio, T. K. Peters, who wrote Dr. Ja-
cobs, making some suggestions in regard to material
that should be included in the Crypt, and in regard
to the microfilming of books, which was his particular
hobby. Dr. Jacobs invited him to pay a visit to Ogle-
thorpe, which he did, and in conference at the Univer-
sity Dr. Jacobs decided he was the man to take over
the work.
As a result, Peters brought his microfilm camera
down to Oglethorpe and, working with Dr. Jacobs, he
began a collection of books and other material. Dur-
ing the two years which have elapsed since that be-
ginning, a complete and scientific plan of procedure
has been adopted and has been carried out. With
the assistance of the American Library Association a
list was prepared of all of the most authoritative books
in the world, anticipating in a measure Well's World
Encyclopedia, for it is a compendium of everything that
civilized man knows today.
These microfilmed books, records, pictures, etc., are
preserved in glass containers in which inert gases have
been substituted for the air. These glass containers
are, in turn, placed inside transite (asbestos) and stain-
less steel cases. The crypt was sealed on Saturday,
May 25th, 1940 to remain inviolate for 6,166 years.
138 Oglethorpe University
The Exceptional Opportunities of Our
Persona! Atftention
Young men who desire to enjoy the daily personal
contact and instruction of the heads of departments
will note with interest that Oglethorpe offers excep-
tional opportunities of that nature. It is well known
that in all our large institutions only the upper class-
men come into any close contact with the full profes-
sors, who as heads of departments occupy their time
in other matters than in educating freshmen.
We believe in giving our freshmen the best we have,
and they will be taught by men who have taught in or
had offered them, chairs in the greatest universities
of America. This will be a permanent policy at Ogle-
thorpe.
Public Utilities
Oglethorpe University has the double advantage of
being located in the suburbs of Atlanta, so far out as
not to be subject to the distractions of city life, yet
so near in as to enjoy all the public utilities of a great
city. Among these are city water, electric lights, city
trolley line, telephone and telegraph service, and in
addition thereto the University has its own postoffice,
express office and railway station, all known as Ogle-
thorpe University, Georgia.
Woman's Board
One of the most remarkable gatherings, even in this
city of remarkable gatherings, was the assembling of
approximately two hundred of the representative wo-
men of the city of Atlanta at the home of President
Oglethorpe University 139
Thornwel! Jacobs, Saturday afternoon, November 25,
1916, to organize a Woman's Board for Oglethorpe
University.
The purpose of the Board is to aid the University
in every v/ise and efficient way, with counsel of, and
guidance by the proper authorities of the institution.
Already more than four hundred women of the city have
offered their services and joined the organization. Their
activities are directed toward the support and develop-
ment of Oglethorpe in every phase of its growth and
activities. Each of the ladies is assigned to the com-
mittee on which she feels she is best able to serve.
These committees cover the various departments of the
University. They are: Ways and Means, Finance, Press,
Grounds, Entertainment, Hospital, Music, Library, Arts,
Refreshments, Transportation, and such other commit-
tees as it may seem wise to the Board from time to
time to appoint.
The authorities of the University welcome the for-
mation of this organization with the greatest joy.
The mere fact that they have promised a devoted
allegiance to the enterprise has its own genuine value,
but those who know the women of Atlanta, with their
marvelous capacity for earnest and consecrated work
directed by a swift and accurate intelligence, will realize
what must be the results of the efficient aid which
they are giving to the institution.
The Woman's Board has established a permanent
endowment fund, and has been incorporated under the
laws of Georgia in preparation for handling funds do-
nated or bequeathed to the University through the Wo-
man's Board.
