Old in tradition and young in spirit, it is one of the distinguished group of small New England liberal arts colleges. The first charter was granted in 1813 by the General Court of Massachu setts which established the Maine Literary and Theological Institution. Waterville was finally selected as the seat of learning and in June, 1818, Rev. Jc:remiah Chaplin, with his family and seven students from Danvers, Mass., sailed from Boston to Augusta by sloop and then transferred to long boats which made their way up the river to \X'aterville. In 1820, the District of Maine became a separate start and one of the first acts of the ntw legislatme w�1s to grant this insticucion che power to confer culltgiace degrees. The following year che name was changed to Waterville College. Mr.. Gardner Colby, a Boston merchant and prominrnc Baptist layman, made a pledge of SS0.000 condicional upon the securing of Sl00.000 from ocher sources. This was accomplished and che college enct::red upon a new era of prosperity. In gratitude for this and other large benefactions from Mr. Colby, the name of the college was dunged in 1866 to Colby University, being amended in 1899 to Colby College. In 1871, ·women were admirced, Colby thus becoming one of the first coeducational colleges in New England. In 1890, the system of coordi nate divisions for men and women was adopted. Dr. Franklin W. Johnson was tlc:cred the fifteenth President on Novem 1928. ber 17, In June, 1930, the trustees voted to move tht college because che presenc site offers insufficient opportunicy for development. The Mayflower Hill site, nearly a square mile in area, was gin:n to the college for this purpose by the citizens of Waterville in April, 1931. At least $3,000,000 will be needed to construct the new buildings and a program has been bunched which aims to attain this sum. The campus borders on the Kennebec River and contains che main educati'-1nal buildings, residential halls, and the athletic plant. Just off the campus, on College Avenue and Main Place, are the President's House, the residences for women scudents, the Alumnae Building. the Men's Infirmary, and the Delta Kappa Epsilon and Phi Delta Theta fraternicy houses. Champlin Hall ( 1836) is named after President James T. Champlin, D.D., LLD., in recognition of his distinguished service while at the head 6 GENERAL STATEMENT 7 of the college. It occupies a central position on the campus and contains ciffices, classrooms, and the college store. Chemical Hall ( 1898) contains in addition to the chemical laboratories several classrooms and the principal administrative offices. Coburn Hall ( 1872) is so named in acknowledgment of benefactions from one of Colby's most liberal friends, Hon. Abner Coburn. The building is given over e=-itirely to the departments of natural sciences and psychology. Memorial Hall ( 1869) was erected in honor of the alumni who fell in the service of their country during the Civil War. It contains the Library and Chapel. The building is rich in that it is the repository of numerous material tributes to alumni, friends, and former officers of the college. Shannon Observatory and Physical Laboratory ( 1889) is a gift from Charles F. T. Seaverns, '01. Chaplin Hall ( 1822), or North College, named for Colby's first Presi dent, Rev. Jeremiah Chaplin, D.D., is occupied by the Delta Upsilon and Lambda Chi Alpha fraternities, each having the use of one half of the building. South College ( 1821) is shared in a similar way by the Alpha Tau Omeg,:i_ :rnd Zeta Psi fraternities. Roberts Hall ( 1911) named for the late President Arthur J. Roberts, LLD., '90, and Hedman Hall ( 191 S) bearing the name of the late P10frssor John Hedman, '95, arc used as freshman dormitories. The two buildings are of the �ame design and the rooms are arranged in corn forrahle suites. Foss Hall (1904), the gift of Mrs. Eliza Foss Dexter, is the main residence for women students. In addition to a number of single and double rooms, the building is equipped with a recreation room, a reading room, a dining hall, a women's infirmary, and the administrative officts of the Women's Division. Four smaller residential halls-Mary Low Hall, Foster House, Mower House, and Dutton House-·complete the living 2,ccommodations for women students. 8 COLBY COLLEGE A well equipped Men's Infirmary, under the supervision of a registered nurse, is maintained by the college at 25 College Avenue. The Alumna e Building ( 1928) was given to the college by Colby women, the donor of the largest individual amount being Professor Florence E. Dunn, Litt.D., '96. The building is used as a social center as well as for housing the health an Chapter of Maine, the charter being granted in 1895. Other organizations of a schobstic natu re include curriculum clubs and chapters of various national and local honora ry fraternities. Fifteen Hellenic fraternities and sororities have local chaptc:rs. in addition to ·which there are numerous other clubs and organizations of a social nature. The extra-curricular religious activities center about the Colby Council on Religion. the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A .. and the Fellowship Forum. The student govern ment is represented by the Student Council (Men's DiYision) and the Student league (Women's Division). !\fore complete descriptions of student organizations and the administrative regulations governing student life at the college are to be found in The Colby Gray Book. Each year the Coll ege sponsors series of lectures and concerts thereby adding to the enrichment of the community life. In 19C6. the late Hon. William Wallace Stetson esublisheJ a trust fund, to be known as the Arthur Jeremiah Roberts lecture Foundation .. the income of which to be expended by the Trustees named in the trust agreement for the mainten ance of a lecture course ,in the college. The speakers are to be chosen by the Trustees of the Foundation .. and, in the language of the agreement, . must be persons . ,vho haw done something worthy of mention, who have a message, and ·who can deliver it in such a manner as will be helpful to college students." The concert series grew out of a desire on the part of students for the privilege of listening to profess ional concerts. It has been a practice to present three concerts annually in the winter months. There have been programs by singers, violinists, chamber-music ensembles, pianists, etc. During recent years it has come to be recognized that the provision of adequate library facilities and service is one of the most impo rtant obligations which a college bears to its students. Increasingly .. the library has become, in fact, as well as in name, "the heart of the college"; today there is scarcely an aim or function carried on by our institutions of GENERAL STATEMENT 9 higher education which is not in some measure aided or supported by library activities. Thus the library .fills a fundamental educational and cultural role, not merely by supplying materials for required or supple mentary reading in connection with course work, but :ilso by the stimula tion of interest in contemporary civilization, the compilation of bibliogra phies, the preparation of exhibits, the provision of recreational reading in the form of non-academic literature on many subjects, including college lecture and music programs, and so on. Colby is constantly striving to expand and improve its Library, and to widen and make more inclusive the service rendered by it. At present the Library, centrally located in Memorial Hall, contains about 86,000 volumes. The first floor reading room is devoted primarily to the needs of students doing required or collateral reading, and the Reserve Desk is maintained here. The second floor reading room contains the reference collection of over 1100 volumes, comprising nearly 300 separate works, and the file of current periodicals. The Library receives 210 English and 10 foreign language journals, exclusive of U. S. Govern ment publications and newspapers. Over 100 periodical publications are regularly bound. The seating capacity of the two rooms combined is 108. About $3,000 is spent annually for the purchase of new books, and about $800 for subscriptions to newspapers and periodical literature. During the academic year Library hours are as follows: Weekdays: 7: 45 a.rn. to 5: 30 p.m. and every evening except Saturday from 7-9: 30 p.m. Sundays: 2-5:30 p.m. and 7-9:30 p.rn.

PLAN 4 Colby College comprehensive examinations rn three fundamental sub jects: English, 1fathematics (Algebra and Plane Geometry ) and Foreign Language. These examinations must be taken at one time, but in case of partial failure in the spring examinations the candidate will be permitted to repeat the failed examinations in the fall without being obliged to repeat the examination already p.:..ssed. This plan assumes that the candi date has covered the fifteen req uired and elective units necessary for admission. TRANSFER Colby CoiJlege has no fixed policy concerning the admission of appli cants who desire to transfer from another college. Each such case is treated on its merits. Applicants must submit a transcript of record, including entrance credits, and a statement of honorable dismissal. The Committee on Standing will then act on the case and inform the applicant whether he can be admitted and with how much advanced credit toward graduation. This regulation applies also to applicants from junior colleges. SPECIAL Adult persons desiring to take a few special courses, but not candidates for the degree, may be admitted at the discretion of the Dean. PROCEDURE OF ADMISSION 1. The prospective applicant should first write to the Dean of the Men's Division or to the Dean of the \X! omen's Division, requesting an application blank. 20 COLBY COLLEGE 2. Upon receipt of the blank, the appliL·ant should fill it out care fuITly and send it to the Dean together ·with the application fee of ten dollars. (This fee will be returned if the applicant is refused admission, or if for any reason the application is withdrawn previous ro September first.) 3 . The Dean will communicate with the principal of the applicant's school concerning the method by which admission must be sought. After securing this information the Dean will inform the applicant whether he or she is entitled ro certification or must take certain entrance examinations. 4. Applicants who must take entrance examinations will be given specific instructions concerning the time, place, and subjects. Results of examinations will be given to applicants, not in percentage figures but as "Honors", "Passed", or "Failed". 5. When an applicant has completed the requirements for admission and is deemed satisfactory in health and character, he or she will receive a formal notification. 6. Each applicant will receive instructions about room, board, equip ment, Freshman Week, curriculum, and other matters before college opens in September. ENTRANCE EXAl\flN"ATIONS SPRING The spring examinations may be taken either at the college or at the secondary school. with the permission of the principal.

French, German GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS Each student is responsible for meeting all requirements here 'With published,. and mwt not expect to be relieved of disabilities resulting from his 01·ersight or cm elessncss. I. The Faculty will recommend the conferring of che degree of Bache lor of Arts by the Board of Trustees upon chose scudencs who have success fully completed, under all the conditions specified below, 124 semester hours of appro\'eJ s tu dy \\· ich c re d i t for 196 quality points. A semester hour is one period of class work per \\·cek for one semes t er . The number of quality points for each course is the number of semester hours of credit multiplied by an index number for the mark (A==4, B==3 , C==2, D==1). II. There are the follo wing fixed requirements: 1. Eng lish Composition in the Freshman Year. 2. American, Classicll or English Literature in the Sophomo re Year. 3. One year-course in each of two of the following: Biology, Chemistry, Geology, Mathematics. Physics. 4. Two year-courses in Social Studies, selected from the following : Business Administration, Economics and Sociol ogy, Education and Psychology, History and Government. Philosophy, Religion. This requirement muse be completed by the end of the Sophomore Year . except clue scudtncs majoring in science may defer one social science until che Junior Year . 5. ''Before a scude:nc becomes a candidate for a degree. he must show his proficiency in one of the three modern languages, French German, or Spanish, by passing a Reading Knowledge Exami nation." This requirement should generally be met at the end of the sophomore year in college . It may be done sooner. eYen upon entrance (in September). provided the student has had adequate preparation. Students who haYe had less than three years of a language in prep:uato ry schr)ol should not plan on tak ing the exarnrnarnH1 \Y itl1l1ut iu rrher study of the language in college. Ii a student. ho\Yever. intends to tlect in his freshman year further "'·ork in a language. he is advised to postpone his Read ing Knmdedge Examination in that language at least until the end of th:it year ; and if he irtends to continue his study of the language during the sophomore year. he may well ,,·air to take the examination at the end of that year's work. A student should be able to pass the Reading Knowledge Examination upon completion of French 4, German 4. or Spanish 4 in college. but a student weak in languages frequently needs to take an additional year before he can pass the examination. 22 GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS 23 The Reading Knowledge Examinations do not involve gram mar and composition work ; they are solely a test of the student's ability to read the written language with understanding. The examinations are approximately two hours in length, and consist of two parts: one for accurate translation of the foreign language into English, and one for comprehension. These examinations are held in May and September, and at the College only. A certificat� is issued to each student demonstrating a reading knowledge of French, German, or Spanish. NOTE : Students u·ho present themselves for the Reading Knowledge Examinations in French, German, or Spanish are ex pected to have completed Course 4 at Colby College or its equiva lent. three years' successful study of the language in preparatory school. Students who have failed a Reading Knoivledge Exami nation must present written evidence of adequate further prepara tion before repeating the examination. The Department reserves the right lo reject an e:r:amination paper from any student tl'ho ha.r 11 01 complied with these requirements. Students who look forward to graduate study are warned that the minimum language requirement for graduation at Colby may not give them the proficiency in languages required by the gradu ate school of their choice. The majority of graduate schools require a reading knowledge of both French and German of all candidates for the doctorate, and some graduate schools require Latin, French, ancl German of candidates in the fields of language and literature. Students who contemplate graduate work should consult the Dean as early as possible in their course in order to learn what will be expected of them. 6. Physical Education is required in the Freshman and Sophomore Years. One semester hour of credit is given for the completion of each semester's work ; quality points are not granted for work in required physical education. III. Not later than the end of the Freshman Year each student is required to select a field of concentration known as his major subject. The general requi rem ents for a major are as follows: 1. Every student must take at least eight semester courses in some one subject, with the provision that departments offering a total of only six semester courses may permit two semester courses in a related subject to count toward a major. Majors are not per mitted in a subject in which fewer than six semester courses are offered. 2. Each department designates the specific courses and the number exceeding eight semesters demanded for a major in that depart ment. 3. At the end of the Sophomore Year students whose marks average lower than C in the courses completed toward a major are not permitted to continue concentrating in that subject. If a student finds it impossible to secure any major because of this require- 24 COLBY COLLEGE ment he may be permitted to remain in college for such time as the Dean shall approve without intent of securing a degree. 4. In the Junior and Senior Years three-fifths of a student's pro gram is determined by the major department, but may include courses not specifically in that department. Two-fifths of the program in Junior and Senior Years is elective. Requirements for majoring in specific subjects are, in general, to be found in the catalogue preceding the descriptions of the courses offered by the several departments. Some programs are more specific than others but all conform to the general pattern described in part V of the gradu ation requirements. Some students intend their undergraduate work to be a definite prep a ra tion for further professional study, and special curricular principles luve been formulated to govern the programs of study pursued by these students. The Dean is adviser to all Freshmen in the division concerned.

Senior Year 3 courses determined by the major department. 2 electives, one of which must be in Modern Foreign Language if that requirement has not already been met. Those who meet these requirements with specially high rank will be awarded the degree with distinction. The Bachelor's Degree with Dis tinction is awarded in three grades: with Distinction (cum laude ), with High Distinction ( magna cum laude ), with Highest Distinction (sum ma cum laude ). CUM LAUDE. Students who attain a r a nk between eighty-eight and ninety-two percent throughout their college course will be recommended for a degree ettm laude. 26 COLBY COLLEGE MAGNA CUM LAUDE. Students who attain a rank between ninety-two and ninety-five percent throughout their college course will be recom mended for a degree magna cum /a;1de. SUMMA CuM LAUDE. Students who attain a rank of ninety-five per cent or more throughout their college course will be recommended for the degree summa cum laude. MARKED DISTINCTION. If at any time a student who has not obtained one of the cum laude grades should attain a rank of ninety-five percent in any department, such student may upon recommendation of the head of that department and at the discretion of the Faculty, be mentioned on the Commencement Program a� having attained Marked Distinction in that particubr department. DEGREES 1. BACHELOR OF ARTS The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred by the Board of Trustees, on the recommendation of the EKulty, upon those who have met the con ditions specified under Graduation Requirements. 2 MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING The degree of Master of Arts in Teaching will be conferred upon students who have acquired professional training in teaching and have met all the requirements of the De:partment of Education, as specified below . GENERAL STATEMENT Recognizing that the tr:iining of secondary-school teachers is a matter of increasing importance, Colby College seeks to interest able young people in teaching as a profession, and provides careful and skille 27 28 COLBY COLLEGE each candidate for this degree. All quantitative statements of require ments are designedly omitted here. For each applicant for the degree a special table of required work will be drawn upon the basis of the undergraduate work the candidate has already completed and the pre liminary professional undergraduate courses that have been followed. One full resident year is the minimum time in which these requirements can be met. The candidate who cannot devote full time to meeting them must expect to spend more than one year in qualifying for the degree. The tuition and laborato ry fees are the same as for undergraduates and are payable under the same regulations. The diploma fee is $10. For registration information see page 29.

GENERAL EXAMINATION IN TEACl-HNG-SUBJ ECT. Candidates will be required to pass a General Examination, covering the field as a whole. in at least one subject which they expect to teach. This examination will be of sufficient scope to test the student's mastery not only of factual material and fundamental skills, but also his general understanding of the interrelations of such parts or divisions of the subject as are usually studied in separate courses. This examination wiil be given by the head of the college department in whose field the subject lies. A mark of B ( 80) or better will be required for credit. If such an examina tion. or its equivalent has alreJdy been sJtisfactorily taken, certification to that effect will serve in lieu of this requirement. 2. GENERAL EXAMINATION IN EDUCATIONAL FUNDAMENTALS. Similar to the above !n purpose, content, Jnd standards, a General Examination in educational fundamentals will be given by the Education Department. This examination will be required of all students and will be given at the conclusion of the candidate's work for the Ma5ter's degree. Experience in teaching will not be accepted as a substitute for either of these General Examinations. REGISTRATION* Registration consists of preparing and filing certain records with the Registrar; specific instructions are issued at each registration period. Freshmen are required to register at an appointed time during Freshman \Xf eek. U ppt:rclassmen must register on the day preceding the beginning of the academic year. Registration for either semester is not permitted later than the second :Monday following the beginning of classes. Preceding registration for a semester's work the student must have paid to the College Treasurer certain fees''' which are credited as advance pay ments on the semester bill. l?egiJtration and pc1yment uf fees tll"e two d.is;h1ct proceHes and a fine of one doll.:1r for edch day of del.1y is charged for late registration, five doll.ll"s being the maximum fine imposed. �see pp . 33-38, inc. 29 ELECTION OF COURSES All regular students must select their programs of study using part V of the graduation requirements as a guide ; they must meet all degree requirem ents and ekct a minimum of fifteen hours a week. The program for each Freshman is determined by correspondence fol lowed by a personal conference on registration day. In the sp ring Freshmen , Sophomores, and Juniors must elect courses for the following year.

An extra course may not be started after the date set as a limit to change courses. If, on the advice of his adviser or instructor concerned, a student repeats in addition to a regular schedule a course already passed, he shall not be charged the customary extra-course fee. 30 STANDING A student's class standing is determined by the number of semester hours with which he is credited on the Registrar's records. A student having less than the required number of semester hours at the end of any year is demoted to the next lower class. The requirements are For Sophomore standing 24 semester hours For Junior standing 54 semester hours For Senior standing 84 semester hours At the end of the first half of each semester the faculty issues, through the Registrar's office, mid-semester warnings, both major an office, final marks. These are reported to students, and to their parents and advisers. Whenever a student's academic record shows serious deficiency, the question of the student's retention or dismissal is determined by the Committee on Standing, in \Y hich the faculty has vested complete power to deal with such cases. The President and the Dean are empowered to rake disciplinary action, even to the extent of requiring withdrawal! from college, when offenses against regulations or customs warrant such action. There is no fixed method for computing a student's final mark in a course ; the final examination must, however, count less than half in the whole computation. Marks are reported to students in letters according to the following scale: "A" means !:hatthe quality of work done by a student was, in percentage, between 90 and 100 ; "B'', 80 and 89 ; "C', 70 and 79 ; "D", 60 and 69. A conditional mark of "E'', covering percentage marks between 50 and 59, is used in the first semester of a few continuous courses specifically designated by the departments. The deficiency thus indicated may be made up by such quality of work rn the second semester as the depart- 3 I 32 COLBY COLLEGE ment shall demand. The following are the only courses to which this rule applies: Biology 1 J\fathcmatics 01, 1, 9, and 13 Business Administration 1 Physics 1 Economics 1 Psychology 1 English 7 Public Speaking 5, 7, 9, and 11 French 1, 03, 3, 05, and 5 Social Studies 1 German 01, 1, 03, 3, 05, 5, and 7 Sociology 1 Greek 1 and 3 Spanish 1 and 3 A mark of "F" means that a course has been failed and must be repeated or Juve another course substituted for it. A mark of "F" cannot be made up by examination. A mark of "Abs ' is givtn when a s tudent is absent from the final ex amination. A student should make up such a deficiency immediately ; after the expiration of one semester a mark of "Abs·· is changed to "F". The mark "Cr·· shows that a student has been awarded credit, but no mark, for the work of a C(1urse. A mark of 'Dr" inJicates th:::r a student has dropped the course from his s ch eJ ule with permi ssion . The m For regular students who enter college in September, 193 7. or thereafter, the tuition charge for five courses is $250 a year. Of this amount $125 must be paid to the Treasurer of the College before registration in September. and $125 before the {tut day of the second semester in Febmary. The charge for each extra couue is $25 a semester. All scholarship awards arc credits against tuition ; scholarships are awarded in July for the entire ensuing year, half of an award being credited against the tuition charge for each semester. Special students who are allowed to take fewer than five courses are charged $20 a semester for each course taken, if the y entered col lege not later than September, 1936 ; they are charged $2 5 a semester for each course taken, if they entered college in September, 193 7, or later. Involuntary special st udents whc take more than three courses shall be charged the extra-curricular fees regardless of the number of courses taken, but for the courses themselves the charges shall be the same per course rate as for extra courses. Voluntary special students not taking more than three courses shall not be charged extra-curricular fees. Students who have dready paid four full years of tuition, and have already attended college four full years, but need further courses to com plete graduation requirements, shall be charged the same per course rate as for extra courses, and shall not be charged the extra-curricular fees. Reguiar students who have not already paid four full years of tuition, and have not already attended college four full years, shall be charged the full tuition rate per year, even though they take fewer than five courses, and they shall be charged the extra-curricular fees.
