Davidson College Catalog 112-*^ YEAR .v EDUCATION OF VETERANS Davidson College is cooperating in full with the Veterans Administration in its educational program for men whose education was interrupted by the war and for veterans who plan to enter college for the first time. Davidson is a liberal arts college offering those courses leading to the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts Degrees. Description in detail of the offerings of the College is listed under the appropriate head- ings in the catalog. Members of the armed forces who wish to enter Davidson should contact the Registrar of the College who is in position to give veterans full information concerning the program of the College for ex-servicemen. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE The financial assistance available to veterans for educational purposes is a subsistence allowance by the Federal Government of $75 a month if without dependents or $105 to $120 a month with one or more dependents. For the customary charges for tuition and necessary college fees an amount not to exceed $500 will be paid for an ordinary college year. This amount is suffi- cient to meet the college fees and approved charges at Davidson. The Veterans Administration pays all tuition and college fees, medical fees, laboratory fees, books, and supplies. From the allowance of $75 or $105 to $120 a month a veteran must take care of his living expenses including board, room and laundry. Veterans who wish to attend Davidson under the provisions and benefits of the "G. I. Bill" should communicate with the nearest Veterans Administration office. ENTRANCE The requirements for entrance to Davidson are listed in this catalog. Veterans who have completed work while in the service that might be used as academic credit should have the appropriate authorities send to the Admissions Office of the College a record of service courses completed. In addition, transcript of record from preparatory schools or high schools should be forwarded to the College for evaluation as well a* transcripts from insti- tutions of higher education, if the veteran has attended college prior to his entry into the armed forces. It is possible that cir- cumstances of certain veterans may justify exceptions being made to the ordinary entrance requirements. The case of each appli- cant will be determined on its merits. Inquiry with reference to admission should be addressed to the Registrar of the College. CREDIT FOR SERVICE COURSES A veteran who while in the service was enrolled in a College Training Program such as the A.S.T.P. or the V-12 or some similar program can expect to receive credit upon his return to college as a civilian for courses successfully completed at the college level. A veteran who wishes credit for such work must have a transcript of his record sent to the College from the authorities of the institution he attended as a member of the armed forces. Appropriate credit will also be granted by the College for work completed under the direction of the United States Armed Forces Institute. In its determination of credit for in-service educational experiences the College is following the recommendation of the American Council on Education in its publication, rf A Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Exper- iences in the Armed Services." ACCELERATED PROGRAM To allow as many opportunities during the calendar year as possible for veterans to begin their work and to permit veterans to speed up their undergraduate training, the College is operat- ing under the accelerated program throughout the year. This program includes two full semesters plus a twelve-weeks summer term, and under this program opportunities are given veterans to enter at any one of four periods in the year. It is possible for a veteran under this program entering college for the first time to complete the requirements for graduation in three calendar years. COURSE OF STUDY It is not planned at Davidson to place veterans in any special group. They will be expected to attend under the same condi- tions and regulations and enjoy the same benefits as students coming to us from civilian life. No special department of study has been set up specifically for veterans. The College offers a thorough and varied program in the field of liberal education for those who wish to go on to graduation. Tt is possible for a studen* who does not plan to graduate to take short courses in prepara- tion for entrance to such professional schools as medicine, den- tistry, engineering, law, ministry, and so forth. The enrollment of Davidson College is restricted, and in the selection of students consideration is given to those best equipped to meet the standards of the Faculty. The Counseling Program of the College is available for veterans, and classes particularly at the Freshman and Sophomore levels, are small, thus furnish- ing a close relationship between student and instructor. Additional information on the College and its work, appli- cation forms, catalog, viewbook, and a bulletin, Information For Prospective Stiidents published in particular with reference to veterans, may be had by writing to the Registrar, Davidson College, Davidson, North Carolina.

    |||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 32101 068568573 DRI N C ETO N UNIVERSITY LIBRARY - º, - - - - -- 5 DAVIDSON COLLEGE Intimate FActs COMPILED BY CORNELIA REBEKAH SHAw Librarian ILLUSTRATED Fleming H. Revel 1 Press NEW YORK Copyright, 1923, by WILLIAM J. MARTIN THIs volume is AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED To THE SoNs of DAVIDson : FOREWORD THE story of the origin and growth of Davidson College, told for the first time in this volume, is typically American. The consecrated idealism of its founders, the bold experimenta tion of its manual-labor infancy, its long and losing battle with poverty and indifference, its rescue by an overruling Providence through the splendid munificence of Maxwell Chambers, the ac cumulating momentum of recent years, its present stability and far-reaching usefulness, its promise for the future—these con stitute a thrilling panorama of divine Providence and human heroism. Its unselfish builders rest from their multiplied la bors, but in endless and ever-increasing beneficence their works do follow them. Our world has learned some startling lessons since the new cen tury began its course. It knows now, as never before, that mere earthly learning, human art and science and inventive genius, the harnessing of nature's giant forces, the production of illimit able wealth and undreamed of luxuries, if these are untouched by religious love and self sacrifice, cannot develop or even pre serve our hard-won civilization; that no gifts are more fatal to human welfare than wealth and leisure without moral culture, liberty without self-control, and unlimited power without jus tice or mercy; that in this age of revolution and reconstruction Christian leadership is the one and only hope of imperiled and bewildered Christendom.

  • Inscriptions and Graves Niagara Peninsula
    "Ducit Amor Patriae" INSCRIPTIONS AND GRAVES IN THE NIAGARA PENINSULA JANET CARNOCHAN NIAGARA HISTORICAL SOCIETY RE-PRINT OF NUMBER 19 WITH ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS PRICE 60 CENTS THE NIAGARA ADVANCE PRINT, NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE FOREWARD In response to many requests for this popular publications, which was the outcome of many toilsome journeys, and much research on the part of the late Miss Janet Carnochan, the Society at length presents it with corrections and additions in the hope that it will be more valued than ever. Note: No. 19 is a Reprint of No. 10 with Additions and Corrections. PREFACE In studying the history of Niagara and vicinity the graveyards have been found a fruitful source of information, and over fifty of these have been personally visited. The original plan was to copy records of early settlers, United Empire Loyalists, Military or Naval Heroes, or those who have helped forward the progress of the country as Clergy, Teachers, Legislators, Agriculturists, etc., besides this, any odd or quaint inscriptions. No doubt many interesting and important inscriptions have been omitted, but the limits of our usual publication have already been far exceeded and these remain for another hand to gather. To follow the original lettering was desired, but the additional cost would have been beyond our modest means. Hearty thanks are here returned for help given by Col. Cruikshank, Rev. Canon Bull, Dr. McCollum, Mr. George Shaw, Rev. A. Sherk, Miss Forbes, Miss Shaw and Miss Brown, who all sent inscriptions from their own vicinity. It is hoped that the index of nearly six hundred names will be found of use and that our tenth publication will receive as kind a welcome as have the other pamphlets sent out by our Society.

    v/ EDUCATION OF VETERANS Davidson College is cooperating in full with the Veterans Administration in its educational program for men whose education was interrupted by the war and for veterans who plan to enter college for the first time. Davidson is a liberal arts college offering those courses leading to the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts Degrees. Description in detail of the offerings of the College is listed under the appropriate head- ings in the catalog. Members of the armed forces who wish to enter Davidson should contact the Registrar of the College who is in position to give veterans full information concerning the program of the College for ex-servicemen. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE The financial assistance available to veterans for educational purposes is a subsistence allowance by the Federal Government of $65 a month if without dependents or $90 a month with one or more dependents. For the customary charges for tuition and necessary college fees an amount not to exceed $500 will be paid for an ordinary college year. This amount is more than sufficient to meet the college fees and approved charges at Davidson. The Veterans Administration pays all tuition and college fees, medical fees, laboratory fees, books, and supplies. From the allowance of $65 or $90 a month a veteran must take care of his living expenses including board, room and laundry. Veterans who wish to attend Davidson under the provisions and benefits of the "G. I. Bill" should communicate with the nearest Veterans Administration office. ENTRANCE The requirements for entrance to Davidson are listed in this catalog.
