4 GENERAL STATEMENT
THE PURPOSE OF COLBY COLLEGE
Colby is distinctly a college of liberal arts. It has no professional schools and no strictly vocational courses. It does prepare for business careers through the offerings of an adequately staffed and long established Department of Business Administration. It does prepare for secondary school teaching by offe·ing systematic courses in education as a part of the curriculum. It gives thorough preparation for graduate work in such fields as medicine, law, social service, engineering, etc. At Colby College, however, regardless of 'vhat preparation a student seeks, he must also secure a general education. Colby holds that vocational skill and profes sional knowledge are not enough and this belief is shared by the best professional schools themselves. To assist young people in obtaining a liberal education-the education that liberates, and broadens both the knowledge and the emotional attitudes of men and women-is the pur pose of Colby College and its faculty.
LOCATION
Colby College is situated at Waterville, Maine, in the center of the State and in what is known as the Belgrade Lakes region. It is about eighty miles northeast of Portland, and some fifty miles west of Bangor. The state capital, Augusta, is twenty miles to the southwest. Waterville is a small industrial city of 15,000 population with cotton goods, worsteds, paper, and wood fibre products as its· principal industries. It is a trading center for a large farming region and in the summer welcomes thousands who vacation in the vicinity. The college itself is located on College Avenue; on the west bank of the Kennebec River and immediately north of the business section of the city. The Maine Central Railroad Station is directly opposite the college, and the Portland-Bangor highway borders the campus.
THE COLLEGE PLANT
The present campus on which are the principal academic buildings and men's residence halls is the original site of the college. Like many other colleges Colby has expanded by extension into neighboring parts of the city so that college buildings now extend down the Avenue toward the business section and across to other streets. 5 6 COLBY COLLEGE
On the campus proper are Memorial Hall, containing the Chapel and the Library ; Chemical Hall, housing the Department of Chemistry and the Administrative Offices; Champlin Hall, a recitation and office build ing; Coburn Hall, in which are the Departments of Biology, Geology, and Psychology ; Shannon Hall, housing the Department of Physics ; two dormitories exclusively for freshmen, Hedman and Roberts Halls ; two former dormitories now housing the fraternities of Zeta Psi, Alpha Tau Omega, Delta Upsilon, and Lambda Chi Alpha ; the Men's Gymnasium, Field House, and athletic field with a commodious concrete stand. The women's division is located on the west side of College Avenue. The principal dormitory is Foss Hall ; the smaller dormitories are Mary Low Hall, Mower House, Dutton House, and Foster House. The Alumnae Building, gift of the women graduates, is a center for athletics, dramatics, art and recreation. Across the Avenue are Alden House and Boutelle House, residences which have recently been converted into women's dormitories. Also on College Avenue are located the President's House; the frater nity houses of Phi Delta Theta, Delta Kappa Epsilon, and Tau Delta Phi ; Taylor House, a dormitory for freshman men ; and the Men's In firmary. The Kappa Delta Rho fraternity house is located at the southern end of Elm Street. THE NEW SITE
In June, 1930, the trustees voted to move the college to a site two miles west of the present campus on a beautiful elevation called May flower Hill. This new site, nearly a square mile in area, was given to the college by the citizens of Waterville. Construction of the new buildings is progressing as rapidly as funds can be secured. The chapel, gift of the late George Horace Lorimer, '98, of the Saturday Evening Post, has already been erected, and foundations have been laid for several other buildings. This ambitious project to move an entire college has captivated the imagination of the country. During the summer of 19 38 several thousand persons from all over the United States and from many foreign countries visited the site and inspected the beautiful model. While the trustees have set no date for the completion of the project the college expects to be operating at Mayflower Hill within a very few years. HISTORY
The beginnings of Colby College date back to 1813, when the General Court of Massachusetts granted a charter to the Maine Literary and Theological Institution. In June, 1818, Rev. Jeremiah Chaplin, a Baptist GENERAL STATEMENT 7 clergyman, with his family and seven students from Danvers, Massachu setts, sailed from Boston to Waterville for the purpose of establishing a college. In 1820, one of the first acts of the new State of Maine was to grant the institution the power to confer collegiate degrees, and in the next year the name was changed to Waterville College. In 1866 the name was changed to Colby in honor of Hon. Gardner
Colby, a Boston merchant and prominent Baptist layman, who had been a generous benefactor. In 187 1 women were admitted, and in 1890 the present system of coordinate divisions for men and women was established. The college always has been alert in adjusting its life, curricula and policies to changing conditions and demands in higher education when the administration's considered judgment has indicated change as wise. It has been consistently associated with the distinguished colleges of liberal arts in the New England area. THE CORPORATION

FIFTEEN UNITS OF SECONDARY SCHOOL CREDIT A unit is defined as a subject pursued successfully five periods a week for a full school year, with the exception that four years of English count as only three units. Req/(ired Units English ...... 3 Algebra ...... 1 Foreign Language ...... 3 or 4 Social Studies ...... 1 Three units of one langu:irg:.: Plane Geometry or two units of each ot t\\,, languages. Natural Science ...... E/ecti1)e Units The remarnrng units necessary to make a total of fifteen may be in any subjects accredited for graduation from an approved secondary school. NOTE: Foreign languages in which entrance units may be offered are Latin, Greek. French, German, and Spanish. A candidate offering at least three units of Latin in addition to three units of Modern Foreign Language may ignore the requirements in natural and social sciences. Candidates offering only two units of foreign language, may be admitted at the discretion of the Dean, provided their general school record is sufficiently high. A single unit in foreign language, representing only one year's study, may not be counted toward the foreign language require ment, but may be counted among the elective units. Entrance deficiencies may be macle up by examination or by taking in college three extra hours for each unit of deficiency. No applicant is granted admission with more than two units of deficiency. In each case the method of making up entrance deficiencies is arranged with the Dean. METHODS OF ADMISSION PLAN 1 Complete certificate covering fifteen entrance units, as specified above, signed by the principal of a school which is accredited by the New Eng land College Entrance Certificate Board, or of a school outside New Eng land accredited by the accrediting agency of the region in which the school is located. *NOTE: Correspondence regarding the admission of men should b.e addr_essed to the Dean of the Men's Division; women, to rhe Dean of the \X'omen s D1v1s10n. 17 18 COLBY COLLEGE (New England schools not now accredited should, if desiring the certificate privilege, apply to the secretary of the board, Professor Frank Nicolson, Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn., before April first.) PLAN 2 Certificate covering at least eight units and examinations of the ( 8) College Entrance Examination Board or of Colby College in all subjects necessary to complete the total of fifteen units. PLAN 3 Examinations in all requi red and elective subjects necessary to present a total of fifteen units. These examinations may extend over a period of three or four years, and may be either Colby entrance examinations or those of the College Entrance Examination Board. PLAN 4 Colby College comprehensive examinations rn four fundamental sub jects. One of these examinations must be in English; one, in a foreign language; one, in algebra, geometry. physics, chemistry or biology; the fourth examination shall be in history or an additional examination in language or science, or mathematics. 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 examinations already passed. This plan assumes that the candidate has covered the fifteen required and elective units necessary for admission. TRANSFER Colby College 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.

FRESHMAN ORIENTATION The first official exercises of the college ye<1r are known as the Freshman Orientation Program. or Freshman \X'eek. and take place during the six days preceding the first classes. Arrend:rnce is required of all members of the entering class. The purpose of this program is two-fold: 1) to carry ( out the details of registration, election of courses, modern language place ment tests, psychological tests, medical and physical examinations instruc , tion in the use of the Lib r�ry and so on; ( 2) to help the new students . get acquainted with each other and adjusted to the college environment and to familiarize them with the traditions and ideals of Colby College, this being accomplished by picnics, athletic periods, evening social events, a reception a Freshman Sunday chapel sen·ice, student activities meetings, , and discussion groups on campus problems. The Freshman Week program for the college year 1939-40 will begin at 4 P.M. Thursday, September 21. A detailed program will be sent to each entering student prior to that date. GRADUATI ONRE QUIREMENT S .Each stt!dent is responsible for meeting all requirements here with published, and must not expect to be relieved of disabilities resulting from his oversight or carelessness. I. The Faculty will recommend the conferring of the degree of Bache lor of Arts by the Board of Trustees upon those students whv- have success fully completed, under all the conditions specified below, 124 semester hours of approved study with credit for 196 quality points. A semester hour is one period of class work per ·w eek for one semester. 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=l). II. There are the following fixed requirements: 1. English Composition in the Freshman Year. 2. American, Classical or English Literature in the Sophomore 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 Sociology, Education and Psychology, History and Government, Philosophy, Religion. Th is requirement must be completed by the end of the Sophomore Year, except that students majoring in science may defer one social science until the Junior Year. 5. Before a student becomes a candidate for a degree, he must show his proficiency in one foreign language by passing a Reading Know ledge Examination. This requirement should generally be met at the end of the sophomore year in college. It may be done sooner, even upon entrance (in September), provided the student has had adequate preparation. Students who have had less than three years of a language in preparatory school should not plan on taking the examination without further study of the language in college. A student shoul d be able to pass the Reading Knowledge Examination upon completion of French 4, German 4, Greek 4 or 12, Latin 2, or Spanish 4 in college, but a student weak in languages frequently needs to cake an additional year before he ca n pass the examination. The Reading Knowledge Examinations do not involve gram mar and composition work ; they are sole�y a test of the. student's ability to read the written language with . understandmg. T�e examrnations are approximately two hours m length, and consist of two parts: one for accurate translation of the foreign language 21 22 COLBY COLLEGE into English, and one for comprehension. These examinations are held in May and September, and at the College only. NOTE: Students who 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 .rchool. Students who have failed a Reading Knowledge Exami nation must present written evidence of adequate further prepara tion before repeating the examination. The Department reserves the right to reject an examination paper from any student u·ho has not 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 .1 chool 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, an by the severa:l 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 preparation for further professiona'1 study, and special curricular principles have been formulated to govern the programs of study pursued by these students. In the Women's Division the Dean is adviser to all Freshmen. In the Men's Division the student is, upon entrance, assigned to a faculty adviser, who assists the Dean in directing the student's work during the first year. Each upper classman's adviser is the head of the department in which the student is concentrating. At the end of the Freshman year the student selects the subject in which he will do his major concentration. Under the present curriculum, a student's work centers around his major subject, especially during Junior and Senior years. Frequent conference with the adviser is therefore imperative. For students concentrating in : Biology Professor Chester Business Administration Professor Eustis Chemistry Professor Parmenter Economics and Sociology Professor Morrow Education and Psychology Professor Colgan English Professor Weber Geology Professor Lougee Greek and Latin Professor Thory History Professor Wilkinson Mathematics Professor Ashcraft Modern Foreign Languages Professor McCoy Philosophy Professor Haynes Physics Professor Wheeler Public Speaking Professor Libby Religion Professor Newman Pre-Medical Professor Parmenter Pre-Dental Professor Weeks Pre-Law Professors Morrow and Wilkinson Government Service Professor Morrow Teaching Major Subject Adviser and Professor Colgan Pre-Engineering Major Subject Adviser IV. Fa iled courses which can be made up only by repetition must be repeated in the immediately ensuing year. 24 COLBY COLLEGE V.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS 25 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 lattde 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 as having attained Marked Diitinction in that particular department. DEGREES BACHELOR OF ARTS 1. The degree of Bachelor of Am is conferred by the Board of Trustees, on the recommendation of the Faculty, upon those who have met the con ditions specified under Graduation Requirements. 2 MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING The degree of Master of Am in Teaching will be conferred upon students who have acquired professional training in teaching and have met all the requirements of the Department of Education, as specified below. GENERAL STATEMENT Recognizing chat the training 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 skilled training for those who wish to meet the certification requirements of State Departments of Education. It is also intended to prepare students to meet the growing demand of modern school systems for teachers who hold the Master's degree. This professional is conducted on a graduate level and is work distinct from undergraduate courses in Education. candidate for the Master's degree must be a graduate of this college A or of a college of similar rank. If he js a graduate from a college other than Colby, a candidate must furnish the Registrar with a certified tran script of his undergraduate record. Normally, a candidate will be admitted to graduate study only on the condition that he has attained an average mark of "B'' ( 80) or better in the subject or subjects which he wishes to teach. Prospective secondary-school teachers, in addition to good health, a pleasing personality, and a broad cultural background in the arts and sciences, need ( 1) an adequate mastery of subject matter in two fields, and ( 2) specific professional preparation. It is believed that emphasis in teacher training should be laid not only upon methods of instruction but also upon the study of educational psychology and mental hygiene, the measurement of pupil achievements and the recognition of individual differences, the significance of education to both the individual and society, and the special problems of American secondary education. In addition to the graduate courses specified below, supplementary work as indicated by the Department of Education must be completed by 26 DEGREES, REGISTRATION 27 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 drafted 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 laboratory fees are the same as for undergraduates and are payable under the same regulations. The diploma fee is $10. For registration information see page 28.

ADVANCED EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY EDUCATIONAL TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS SOCIAL THEORY OF EDUCATION PR lNCIPLES OF SECONDARY EDUCATlON ELEMENTS OF EDUCATIONAL STATISTICS VOCATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL GUIDANCE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION AND SUPERVISION SEMINAR SPECIAL METHODS COURSES COURSES IN SUBJECT FIELDS GENERAL EXAMINATIONS 1. GENERAL EXAMINATION IN TEACHING-SUBJECT. 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. Th is examination will 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 already been satisfactorily taken, certification to that effect will serve in lieu of this requirement. 28 COLBY COLLEGE 2. GENERAL EXAMINATION IN EDUCATIONAL FUNDAMENTALS. Similar to the above in purpose, content, and 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 1'.faster's degree. Experience in teaching will not be accepted as a substitute for either of these General Examinations. REGISTRATION* Registration consisrs of prep�rnng and filing certain records with the Registrar ; specific instructions a re issued at each registration period. Freshmen are required to register at an appointed time during Freshman Week. Upperclassmen must register on the day preceding the beginning of the academ ic yea;·. Registration for either semester is not permitted later than ten calendar d a ys follL)wing the beginning of classes. Preceding registration for a stmester's work the student must have paid to the College Treasurer certain fees =:. which are credited as advance pay ments on the semester bil l. Unless, prior to Registr.1tion D.1y. a studem secures permission from the Registrar to register late. a fine of one dollar for each day of delay u·ill be charged on the student ' s S€mesler bill, fi1·e dollars being the maximum fine imposed. WITHDRAWAL Official withdrawal from the College may be effected only by filing with the Registrar a notice of withdrawal. Students may secure blank notices from the Deans. No refunds will be made by the Treasurer unless withdrawal is made according to the established regulations. �' See pp. 36-41, inc. ELE CTION OF COUR SES All regular students must select their programs of study using part V of the graduation requirements as a guide ; they must meet all degree requirements and elect 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 spring Freshmen. Sophomores, and Juniors must elect courses for the following year. Failure to elect courses at this time will cause the student considerable inconvenience, including a fine of two dollars before any subsequent election will be permitted. With the approval of the ac1viscr, voluntary changes in a student's program may be the first six class days of a semester and a made during fee of one dollar per voluntary change will be charged on the semester bill ; involuntary changes nu y be made without penalty. After the tenth day following the day on which classes begin in either semester no student shall change frnm one course to another ; but at any time during the semester a student may drop a course with the consent of both adviser and Dean, in which case a mark of "Dr" shall be entered upon the record. A student who drops a course without permission shall be placed on probation for the remainder of the semester and shall receive a mark of "F" in the course. At the Registrar's Office the student can standard forms upon which get to make application for changing courses or dropping a course. EXTRA COURSES With the consent of adviser and Dean a student may elect one, but only one, extra course in excess of the normal program of five cou rses (exclusive of the req uired work in physical education ) provided that the 2) student (I) has had at least one semester in college, and ( has obtained an average rank of at least 70 in any four courses taken in the immediately preceding semester. 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 reglar schedule a course already passed, he shall not be charged the customary extra-course fee. 29 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 rhe end of the first half of each semester the faculty issues, through the Registrar's office, mid-semester warnings, both major and minor. These warnings are sent to the student, to his parents, and to his adviser. For each mark reported below 60 the student is given a major warning ; for each mark reported as barely passing but in danger of becoming a final failure the student is given a minor warning. Only major warn ings affect a student's eligibility for extra-curricular activities. At the end of each semester the faculty issues, through the Registrar's office, final marks. These are reported to students, and to their parents and advisers. Whenever a student's academic record shows ser ious deficiency, the question of the student's retention or dismissal is determined by the Committee on Standing, in which the faculty has vested complete power to deal with such cases. The President and the Dean are empowered to take disciplinary action, even to the extent of requiring withdrawa:l 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 acco rding to the following scale: "A" means that the quality of work done by a student was, in percentage, between "B", 60 and 69. 90 and 100 ; 80 and 89 ; "C', 70 and 79 ; "D", 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 m the second semester as the depart- 30 STANDING 31 ment shall demand. The following are the only courses to which this rule applies: Biology 1 Mathematics 01, 1, la, 9, and 13 Business Administration 1 Physics 1 Economics 1 Psychology English 7 Public Speaking1 5, 7, 9, and 11 French 1, 03, 3, 05, 5, and 7 Social Studies 1 German 01, 1, 03, 3, 05, 5, and 7 Sociology 1 Greek and Spanish 1 and 3 History1 01 3 A mark of "F" means that a course has been failed and must be repeated or have another course substituted for it. A mark of "F" cannot be made up by examination. A mark of "Abs·· is given when a student 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 Cf1urse. A mark of "Dr" indicates th:::t a student has dropped the co.urse from his schedule with permission. The mark "Inc" means that a student's work in a course has been un finished ; this work must be made up within limits prescribed by the in structor ; otherwise the mark will be changed to "F". In any event after the expiration of a semester the Registrar will change an "Inc" to "F". The letter "R" is used together with an appropriate mark when a student has repeated a course. SUMMER SCHOOL CREDITS 1. Only six semester hours shall be credited toward the Colby degree for work done by a student in any one summer. 2. Not more than a total of twelve semester hours shall be credited toward the Col by degree for all summer school work done by a student. 3. Previous to enrolling for summer school courses for which the student expects credit toward the Colby degree, the student must obtain on a form provided for the purpose the approval of the Dean for the specific courses which the stu dent intends to take at summer school 4. The Deans are instructed not co approve a total of more than two hours of summer school credit in the field of physical education. 5. If the student's proposed summer school work involves prospec tive credit in his college major, the approval of the adviser as well as the Dean is necessary. 32 COLBY COLLEGE 6 . If the student's proposed summer school work involves prospective credit for a course specifically required for graduation, the approval of the head of the department offering the course at Colby is necessary as well as the approval of the Dean. 7. Summer school marks lower than C shall nor be credited, because the general rule concerning marks transferred from another college for bids credit for marks lower than C. ATTENDANCE AND ABSENCES I. GENERAL a. All absences are recorded hy the: insrrucrors and reported to the Deans. Excuses for absence are granted by the Deans only. Excuses for illness arc granted hy the De-ans when the illness is certific-J by a member of the college medical service.

Such freedom of action 1s, however, definitely subject to the following qualifications: a. Such students are subject to the provisions of both sections of Rule 1, requiring their attendance at all announced quizzes and examina tions, and at the last class before and first class after a college holi day or vacation. b. If in the opinion of the instructor of a course, a student is abusing the privileges granted in this section to such an extent as to cause possible failure in that course, the instructor may notify the Dean to that effect. The Dean shall thereupon warn the student that, in the event of any further unexcused absence in the particular course concerned, the student will be dropped from the course without privilege of reinstatement and a mark of "F" entered on the Registrar's record.

A fourth unexcused absence shall cause the Dean to impose this penalty. b. This rule shall apply also to Freshmen in their second semester. 6. TARDINESS Excuses for tardiness must be made to the instructor at the end of the class hour in which the tardiness occurs. The instructor has author ity to excuse the tardiness or to report it to the Dean as an absence. 34 COLBY COLLEGE EXAMINATIONS Students muse understand the importance of college examinations. In many courses there are no such things as recitations and daily marks ; the various examinations, quizzes, and reports provide the only marks for the course. Especially important is the final examination given at the end of each semester in a course. The fact chat the college sets aside a period of ten Jays at the end of each semester for these final examina tions shows their importance in the judgment of the faculty. So-called hour examinations and shorter quizzes may be given at the discretion of each instructor. but the final semester examinations are given in accord ance with a schedule issued by the Registrar. No student may be excused from final examination except for illness or grave home emergency, and then only with the understanding that the examination will be taken at the next available opporutnity. In very unusual circumstances. with the consent of the Dean, the student may be permitted to accept in lieu of final exam ination a constructive mark equal to of his average mark in the course without the examination. 75 (le Extra-curricular activities. athletic or otherwise. are not permitted to conflict with final examinations. Students detecced cheating in any quizzes or examinations may, at the discretion of the instruccor. be dismissed from the course and receive a mark of "f". If the case is known to be the student's second offense in college. the instructo r and the Dean must report the case to the Faculty. the a first offense the instructor has the option of In case of reporting the case to the Faculty or of settling it himself. Whenever an instructor takes action on a case of cheating he must report his decision to the Dean as a matter of record. ELIGIBILITY A student shall be ineligible to represent the college in any public way if: 1. He is a speoal student. 2. He is carrying less than 15 semester hours 3. He has at the beginning of any semester total deficiencies of more than six semester hours. Ineligibility declared at the close of the first semester shall take effect one month after the registration day of the second semester. ELIGIBILITY 35 (a) A student whose ineligibility is caused by one or more marks of "E" at the end of a semester may regain eligibility at the following mid-semester if at that time he has no major warn ing in any subject. (b) A student with more than six hours of deficiency may regain eligibility after one semester provided he secures at least 36 quality points in that one semester. 4. He is a freshman who at the beginning of the second semester has total deficiencies of more than .five semester hours. 5. He has more than two major warnings at mid-semester, in which case he shall be ineligible for the remainder of the semester. 6. He has been dropped from and later readmitted to college, or has been permanently demoted to a lower class, in either of which cases he cannot regain eligibility until the expiration of a calendar year, which must include one semester's work in college subsequent to the date of suspension or demotion, in which semester the student must have obtained at least twelve semester hours of credit. 7. He is a transfer srudent accepted into advanced standing from another four-year college, for he is thus affected by the so-called "one year rule" making him ineligible for one year after admission into Colby College. (a) A transfer student who has completed a terminal course at another institution of higher education, for work in which Colby College grants transfer credit, shall be eligible on the same basis as students of the same class standing who began their college work at Colby. ( b) A transfer student accepted into freshman standing from any sort of higher institution is eligible for freshman competition only during his entire first year at Colby. 8. He is on probation, in which case the ineligibility shall be co-exten sive with the length of probation.

LI BRA Y R During recent years it has come to be recognized that the prov1s1on of adequate library facilities and service is one of the most important 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 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 supplementary reading in connection with course work, but also by the stimulation of interest in contemporary civilization, the compilation of bibliographies, the preparation of exhibits, and the provision of recreational reading in COURSES OF INSTRUCTION 57 the form of non-academic literature on many subjects. Colby is constantly striving to expand and improve its Library, and to widen and make more inclusive the service rendered by it. The Library staff gives instruction in the use of books and bibliographical tools to develop independent use of libraries during college and in later life. The Library, centrally located in Memorial Hall, contains at present ninety-seven thousand volumes, and is growing at the rate of about three thousand volumes a year. The Library receives more than three hundred periodicals, including many important publications from foreign countries, and is a depository for the publications of the United States Government. A handbook, "How to Use the Library" is issued without charge to all students. In this handbook readers will find the library rules and valuable information concerning the use of library materials.
