ORGANIZATION

Morehouse College is composed of the College of Arts and Sciences, and the School of Religion. A Summer School is con¬ ducted jointly with Atlanta University and five other institutions in Atlanta.

SUPPORT AND NEED OF ENDOWMENT

Morehouse College is dependent for its main support upon the income of a limited endowment, tuition and fees from students, and gifts from alumni and friends. The location of the school is most excellent; the buildings are substantial and well built, and are kept in good repair. So far as grounds and buildings are concerned, these have been secured with a view to permanence. The character of the work done and the increasing efficiency of every department insure the highest and most lasting results in the lives of the students and those among whom they labor. There is need of much larger endowment to relieve the present burden and to further insure the continuance and the expansion of the College. Money so invested will yield rich returns in good accomplished by the College.

COOK MEMORIAL CHAIR

A fund of $20,000, a portion of the bequest of Mr. Josiah W. Cook, of Cambridge, Mass., has been set apart for the endowment of the President’s chair under the name of “The Cook Memorial Chair.” GENERAL INFORMATION

LOCATION

The College campus is on West Fair Street, at the junction of Chestnut Street, within half an hour’s walk from the center of the city. Electric cars marked “West Fair” leave the corner of Broad and Alabama Streets, and the Terminal Station, every fifteen minutes, direct for the College. The campus is twelve acres in extent. It occupies one of the highest points of land in the city, 1,100 feet above sea-level, and commands a fine view of the city and surrounding country. For beauty and healthfulness the situation could not be surpassed.

HISTORY

Morehouse College, in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, is an institu¬ tion for the education of Negro young men for constructive leader¬ ship and service. From its beginning Morehouse College was oper¬ ated by the American Baptist Home Mission Society of New York. In 1935, the control was transferred to the Board of Trustees, but the Society still retains a friendly interest and is represented on the board of trustees.

The College was organized in the year 1867, in the city of Au¬ gusta, Georgia, under the name of “The Augusta Institute.” In 1879, under the presidency of Rev. Joseph T. Robert, LL.D. (1871- 1884), it was removed to Atlanta and incorporated under the name “Atlanta Baptist Seminary.” At this stage of its growth the in¬ stitution owned only one building, that being a comparatively small three-story structure, located near what is now the Terminal Sta¬ tion. President Robert was succeeded by President Samuel Graves, D.D., in 1885. Dr. Graves served as president until 1890, continuing as Professor of Theology for four years longer. In 1889, as the surroundings of the old location in Atlanta had become unfavorable, a new site was secured, and in the spring of 1890 the school was re¬ moved to its present location. In the autumn of this year President George Sale (1890-1906) entered upon his duties. In 1897 amend¬ ments to the charter were secured, granting full college powers and changing the name of the institution to “Atlanta Baptist College.” In 1906 President Sale resigned to become Superintendent of Educa- 20 Morehouse College

tion of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, and he was suc¬ ceeded by President John Hope, who had been a professor on the faculty since 1898. By a vote in 1912 of the Board of Trustees, concurred in by the American Baptist Home Mission Society, and by a change in 1913 of the charter granted by the State of Georgia, the name of the institu¬ tion became “Morehouse College,” in honor of the Rev. Henry L. Morehouse, D.D., Corresponding Secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society and the constant friend and benefactor of the Negro race. In 1931 President Hope resigned and was succeeded by President Samuel Howard Archer, who had served the college as professor since 1905, and dean since 1920. On October 1, 1938, President Archer retired from the presidency and by vote of the Board of Trustees became President Emeritus. On May 10, 1940, Dr. Benjamin Elijah Mays was elected president to succeed Dr. Archer. During the in¬ terim Dr. Charles D. Hubert, Director of the School of Religion, served the College as Acting President. Dr. Mays began his duties as president on July 1, 1940.

AFFILIATION IN UNIVERSITY SYSTEM

On April 1, 1929, an arrangement was completed among Atlanta University, Morehouse College and Speiman College for the affilia¬ tion of these three institutions in a university plan, the graduate and professional work to be carried on by Atlanta University, the college work to be done by Morehouse College and Speiman College. The Board of Trustees of Atlanta University was reorganized to include representatives nominated respectively by the Boards of Trustees of Morehouse College and Speiman College and additional members to be elected at large. The late Dr. John Hope was unanimously elected President of Atlanta University. The work of Morehouse College and Speiman College continues as before. The new arrangement does not affect in any way the moral and religious teaching either instiiution desires to offer. Each institution retains its own Board of Trustees and its own manage¬ ment. With their representation on the Board of Atlanta Univer¬ sity, all three institutions are throwing their strength and influence into the development of a strong graduate school which will give Negro students opportunities for graduate study which have not before been available. With the three groups working vigorously together. Morehouse College 21

Atlanta has become a center of importance in the education of Negroes. The University, in cooperation with Morehouse College and Spel- man College, offers each year a Emited number of undergraduate- graduate courses. These are conducted by members of the faculties of Morehouse College, Spelman College and Atlanta University, and are open to specially qualified juniors and seniors and to graduate students. In addition, the University is offering graduate courses in economics and business administration, biology, chemistry, educa¬ tion, English, French, history, mathematics, and sociology. Under the direction of the Department of Education, there is a Laboratory School, including nursery school, kindergarten, and ele¬ mentary school.

SUMMER SCHOOL

In 1921 Morehouse College began its Summer School, featuring courses in education especially for the benefit of the public school teachers of the State. Through the courtesy of Spelman College, the home economics building of that institution was used. Each year, however, brought an increasing demand for content courses in high school and college for students and teachers who desired to continue their study and qualify for higher state certificates and college de¬ grees. To meet this demand, the Summer School was reorganized in 1928 as the Morehouse-Spelman Summer School and conducted jointly by Morehouse College and Spelman College. Atlanta University be¬ came affiliated in 1928, and the Atlanta University School of Social Work in 1929. With increasing cooperation among the institutions of higher learn¬ ing in Atlanta, the Atlanta University Summer School has been con¬ ducted since 1933 by Atlanta University with Morehouse College, Spelman College, the Atlanta University School of Social Work, Clark College, Morris Brown College, and Gammon Theological Seminary affiliating. In view of the emergency created by the war, the Atlanta Univer¬ sity Summer School will operate during the summer of 1942 on a two-session plan, thereby making a term of ten weeks in length.

EQUIPMENT AND BUILDINGS

Graves Hall, erected in 1889, named in honor of President Graves, is one of the chief college dormitories. The building has four stories 22 Morehouse College above the basement, is beautifully faced with white marble, and has modern conveniences. Quarles Hall, erected in 1898 and named in honor of Rev. Frank Quarles, who for many years was pastor of Friendship Baptist Church, Atlanta, and president of the Georgia Baptist Convention from its organization until his death, has been removed from its former site on Chestnut Street to the corner of Henry Street and Columbus Avenue, where it is occupied by the Atlanta University School of Social Work. Sale Hall, occupied in October, 1910, is named in honor of Presi¬ dent George Sale. It has a well-lighted and well-ventilated basement with two rooms. The building is three stories above basement and contains recitation rooms for the School of Religion and College, a reception room, recreation room, and a beautiful chapel with a seating capacity of seven hundred. Robert Hall was completed in 1916. The three main floors are devoted wholly to dormitory purposes. There are one or two suites for teachers. The size and proportion of the rooms, and the electric lighting and other conveniences render this in every way a satisfac¬ tory college dormitory. The Science Building was erected in 1921. This building is de¬ voted exclusively to uses of the departments of chemistry, physics, and biology. Ample lecture rooms, laboratories and apparatus rooms are all included in the building. On the first floor are laboratories for qualitative and quantitative chemistry, and storerooms. On the second floor are the physics laboratories, together with a large laboratory for organic, industrial and electro-chemistry. On the third floor are the biological laboratories with museum, greenhouse, aquarium, and lecture room equipped for stereopticon and motion pictures. There are private laboratories, instructors’ offices, a cumbustion room, and other conveniences. This building affords every opportunity for the work of the departments for which it is designated and greatly increases the efficiency of the College. During 1926, largely through the initiative of the students, a gymnasium, containing a 700-seat grandstand and a court for bas¬ ketball, indoor baseball, and volleyball, was erected. In addition to these buildings there are others for special pur¬ poses. The President’s residence is a beautiful two-story brick house of a style of architecture in harmony vdth that of the larger build¬ ings. The new Administration Building of Atlanta University con¬ tains administrative offices available for the use of Morehouse College. Morehouse College 23

In 1937, a Central Power Plant was constructed by Atlanta Uni¬ versity at the corner of Lee Street and Greensferry Avenue, which provides heat and light for all Morehouse College buildings. The Atlanta University Library provides library facilities for the students of Morehouse College. This building, a gift from the Gen¬ eral Education Board, has been erected on the block of land now owned by Atlanta University at the south end of Chestnut Street between Spelman College and Morehouse College. Because of its location, it has made possible the bringing together in one building the book collections of the four affiliated institutions—Atlanta Uni¬ versity, Morehouse College, Spelman College, and the Atlanta Uni¬ versity School of Social Work. The four libraries have been com¬ pletely reclassified under expert librarians, and the book collection increased by purchases of many standard as well as recent works. This has made available to students of the four institutions unusual advantages for study, reference, and cultural reading. A collection of about 6,000 fine photographs and prints illustrating the history of art, which was the gift of the Carnegie Corporation, enriches the teaching of cultural subjects.

The building has a seating capacity of 600 and an ultimate capacity of more than 175,000 volumes. The basement contains a large room for exhibition purposes, library staff room, storage and delivery room, lockers and lavatories, and book stacks. The first floor is entered through a spacious corridor and exhibition hall which ex¬ tends the full depth of the building. Opening from this on the right is the reserve book room, and on the left the periodical room and browsing room. Four seminar rooms, check room and book stacks complete this floor. The second floor contains a large reading room, two stories in height and extending the entire length of the build¬ ing. On this floor also are the office of the librarian, a library work room and additional book stacks. The Atlanta University School of Library Service occupies the third floor.

PUBLICATIONS

The publications of the College are: The Bulletin of Morehouse College, which is published quarterly by the College. One issue of The Bulletin of Morehouse College is the Annual Catalogue, and the other three issues are The Alumnus. Other publications are The Morehouse Journal of Science and The Maroon Tiger, a student publication. 24 Morehouse College p CARE OF HEALTH

Constant watchcare is maintained over the health of the students by the College physician and nurse. Immediately upon entering college each student is given a physical examination. On the basis of this examination students are assigned during their freshman and sophomore years to regular outdoor and indoor physical educa¬ tion activities. Special classes with individual work are arranged for students who need corrective exercises. The aim of the Department of Physical Education is not to overtax the student’s ability in strong competition, but to build individual health and efficiency; to give students a knowledge of sports and varied activities which will develop their skill and ability in relation to everyday living. In the case of illness, students are cared for at the MacVicar Hospi¬ tal on Spelman College campus. This hospital has been converted into a joint infirmary for Morehouse College and Spelman College students, and is under the supervision of a corps of nurses and physicians.

STUDIES AND DISCIPLINE

Students who fail to maintain the scholastic rank required by the College are liable to discipline, ranging from probation to being dropped from the College. Mid-semester reports of students who are not succeeding in their work are sent to their parents or guardians, and at the end of each semester a final report of each student is sent to his parents or guardians.

Regular attendance and punctuality at all classes and chapel exer¬ cises are required. In the case of an unavoidable absence, the excuse should be presented to the Dean not later than the Monday follow¬ ing the week in which it occurs. A deduction of one-fifth of a semester hour is made for each unexcused absence above the num¬ ber of times the class meets per week, and a student accumulating six unexcused absences in any course will be dropped from that course with a grade of failure. A deduction of one-fifth of a semester hour is made for every three unexcused absences from chapel. Excuses for absences are not granted on the two days before and the two days after holidays. The social maintenance of the College requires observance of the recognized standards of morality, good order, and gentlemanly be¬ havior. For any violation of these standards, a student may be asked to withdraw from the College. In the regulation of the conduct of Morehouse College 25 the student, it is the aim of the faculty to govern by principles rather than rules. Regulations exist for the good of the student to secure to him in the highest possible degree the end for which he comes to college. The aim is to produce self-control and to secure the cheerful acquiescence of the student in rules that are made for the good of all. Correct personal habits are inculcated; cleanliness and neatness are required; the use of intoxicating liquors and the possession of firearms or other dangerous weapons are forbidden. College sports and games are allowed and encouraged under restrictions that pre¬ vent danger to health and neglect of regular school duties. In gen¬ eral, such watchfulness is maintained as will insure, as far as pos¬ sible, good health, progress in study, and the development of manly qualities and moral character.

REGISTRATION

Students are expected to register on the days set apart for regis¬ tration in the college calendar. A fee of two dollars is charged for late registration. It is expected that students will give careful attention to the mat¬ ter of their programs on the registration days. All requests for changes should be presented on these days. Changes in schedules are not approved after the last day stated in the college calendar for that purpose. A student who drops a course without the approval of the admin¬ istration after the first four weeks of any semester for other cause than withdrawal from college is charged with a failure in that course.

FRESHMAN WEEK

All freshmen are required to be present during the days designated as Freshman Week, September 16-22. The College sets aside six days as Freshman Week at the begin¬ ning of each academic year in order to assemble the freshmen before the rush of the general registration. Its purpose is to make the students acquainted with one another and the physical plant and ideals of the College. During these days, freshmen have the close association with the instructors which characterizes the relationship between student and teacher at Morehouse. Intelligence and achievement tests, and physical examinations are given during Freshman Week. 26 Morehouse College

EXAMINATIONS

Regular examinations are held at the end of each semester on the days stated in the college calendar. Failure to take examinations at the time scheduled will render the student delinquent. Delinquent examinations are held at the opening of each semester on the day stated in the college calendar. Students are required to take their delinquent examinations at these appointed times. GENERAL COLLEGE ACTIVITIES

Morehouse College encourages all activities — religious, literary, social, athletic—which make for the development of Christian ideals and for the culture of a sound mind in a sound body.

RELIGIOUS PRIVILEGES

This is emphatically a Christian school. The faculty keeps con¬ stantly in mind the fact that it was founded by a missionary organi¬ zation, and is sustained by the contributions of Christian people for the Christian education of young men. Therefore, while we seek to give the best possible instruction in the literary and scientific branches, stress is placed upon moral training and the development of consecrated workers. Self-mastery, symmetrical character, high ideals and purposes are regarded as the chief end of education. Special attention is given to the spiritual needs of the students. The Bible has a place in the regular course of study. In the life and discipline of the school, constant effort is made to inculcate Christian principles.

In connection with the regular daily chapel assemblies there is a brief period of devotion, and on Sunday mornings a service of wor¬ ship is held for students living in the dormitories. There is also open to Morehouse College students and faculty a preaching service held in Sisters Chapel on Spelman College campus each Sunday afternoon at three o’clock.

SOCIAL LIFE

Every effort is made to provide a natural and wholesome social life for the Morehouse men. Departmental clubs, fraternities, and other college organizations form normal social groups. The presi¬ dent’s residence and the reception room in Robert Hall are open to students for teas and informal gatherings. The hostess plans sev¬ eral social occasions for the men, particularly the Maroon and White Reception, the Christmas Breakfast, and the Birthday Party. More¬ house students are invited to occasional parties which are spon¬ sored by Spelman College.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

There are several societies and student organizations connected with the College. The expenses of these extracurricular activities are met by means of the student activities fee, so that no admission 28 Morehouse College is charged students for athletic contests, debates, and concerts. A committee, composed of representatives from various organizations on the campus and two representatives from the faculty, administers the student activities. The Young Men’s Christian Association, for the spiritual improve¬ ment of the members and for religious work, is one of the most active organizations in the institution. It meets weekly, and under its direction numbers of students are assigned work in the various churches and Sunday schools of the city. Opportunity is thus af¬ forded students for practical Christian work outside the College. The Ministers’ Union is an organization composed of members of the School of Religion; its object is generally to discuss subjects of interest to those looking forward to the ministry as a profession. The Maroon Tiger, the organ of the students of Morehouse College, is published monthly during the school year. The University Players offers several productions annually, giving excellent practice in dramatics. The College Debating Society meets every other week. Under the supervision of the faculty, intercollegiate debating is en¬ couraged. The Science and Mathematics Club furnishes excellent op¬ portunities to those interested in purely scientific studies. The Glee Club and the Orchestra, both under the general direction of the Professor of Music, offer peculiar opportunities to those who wish to improve in singing and in the use of musical instruments. The Delta Phi Delta Journalistic Society, organized in 1938 by students interested in journalism, offers to them an opportunity of expression which is not acquired through formal classroom procedure. The Chi Sigma Tau Society is composed of students majoring in the social sciences and is lor the purpose of discussing the social, political, and economic problems of the day. It presents to the public forums, panel discussions, and lectures dealing with these problems. Four Greek-letter fraternities have chapters on the campus; name¬ ly, the Alpha Phi Alpha, the Kappa Alpha Psi, the Omega Psi Phi, and the Phi Beta Sigma. The Athletic Association, a student organization, generally directs the energies of its members along the lines of football, baseball, basketball, and tennis. It also encourages track meets and, from time to time, in conference with the Director of Physical Education, it arranges intercollegiate contests in the various divisions of athletics. Students who participate in extracurricular activities are expected to maintain the minimum scholarship average of the College, and Morehouse College 29

not to be failing in more than three semester hours in the case of a three-credit subject and four semester hours in the case of a four- credit subject.

6. To understand the nature ol man and his relation to the physical universe. 7. To cultivate an appreciation for the cultural and spiritual qualities of life. 8. To understand, and interpret constructively, current social and economic problems.

In achieving these ends the College seeks to combine instruc¬ tional and extra-curricular activities to the extent that the student will have an opportunity to display initiative, develop expression, acquire greater confidence in himself, to gain a type of experience which will enable him, as a citizen, to furnish a quality of leadership that will be constructive and far-seeing.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION

Morehouse College is essentially a small Christian college, and consequently selects its students on the basis of character, person¬ ality, and promise as constructive leaders, as well as on scholarship. The minimum requirement for entrance upon the work of the College is the satisfactory completion of the work of an approved high school and a recommendation for admission by the principal. A candidate may present for admission any subjects taught in an approved high school which represents accepted courses in the fol¬ lowing fields of study: English, Fine Arts, Foreign Languages, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Social Studies. His scholastic record and the recommendation given to him by his principal must show that he is possessed of an educational background sufficiently rich and broad in range to indicate definite intellectual capacity and ability to successfully take advantage of the opportunities offered by Morehouse College for intellectual and cultural development. No student should come before he is formally accepted. 44 Morehouse College

METHODS OF ADMISSION

Candidates for admission to the Freshman Class are admitted (1) by certificate from accredited high schools, and (2) by examina¬ tions at the College. Applicants who are unable to present certificates from approved or accredited high schools must take an examination. Such appli¬ cants must furnish satisfactory evidence that they have completed a course of study that meets the entrance requirements in time and subjects. Candidates for admission by certificate from approved or ac¬ credited schools should arrange with their school principals to have their credentials sent to the Registrar as soon as possible after the close of the school year. Such credentials must be sent on a cer¬ tificate form furnished by the College. Certificates containing en¬ trance credits must be sent directly from the principal of the school to the Registrar.

ADMISSION TO ADVANCED STANDING

Each applicant for admission to advanced standing who is trans¬ ferring from some other collegiate institution will be judged on his merits. In general, however, he will not be admitted unless the quality of his work is at least equivalent to that required for gradua¬ tion by the institution from which he is transferring, is not under discipline, and may continue in that institution from which he seeks to transfer. An official transcript with a statement of honorable dismissal should be sent directly to the Registrar from the school from which the applicant wishes to transfer. In case of students coming from colleges whose entrance require¬ ments are less than those of Morehouse College, an additional num¬ ber of college credits will be required in order to make good the deficiency. No student from another college will be given a degree from More¬ house College with less than one. year’s residence work at the College. All students transferring to Morehouse College with advanced credit must obtain at least two “points” for each hour required for a degree after entering Morehouse College. REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES

The requirements for the degrees of bachelor of arts and bachelor of science are as follows: Morehouse College 45

(a) Two and a half years of English, including a half year of public speaking. (b) *Two years of a modern foreign language. (c) Two years of science to be selected as follows: 1. Introductory Biology or Invertebrate Zoology 2. Matter and Energy

The degree of bachelor of science is granted students who take a minimum of sixty hours of natural science and mathematics, and whose major subject is either mathematics or science. Practically all prescriptions except (f), (j), (k), and (1) above should be met by the end of the sophomore year. That this may be accomplished, the following schedule of studies is prescribed:

FRESHMAN YEAR (1) English. (2) A foreign language. (3) Science. (4) History of Europe. (5) Freshman Orientation. (6) Physical Education. (7) An elective.

*A student who has completed in secondary school two or more units in a modem foreign language and can complete successfully an intermediate or an advanced course in that language will be required to take only one year of a foreign lan¬ guage in college. At least one year of a foreign language must be taken and passed in college, and any foreign language begun in college, to satisfy the language re¬ quirements, must be taken and passed for two years. 46 Morehouse College

During the year attendance is required once each week of all members of the Freshman class in courses of lectures on Freshman Orientation, and Hygiene.

SOPHOMORE YEAR

(1) Four year-courses to meet specific requirements. (2) One course for free election. (3) Physical education.

JUNIOR YEAR

(1) One year-course to complete specific requirements. (2) Two courses in the major study. (3) Two courses for free election.

SENIOR YEAR

(1) One year-course to complete specific requirements. (2) Two courses in the major study. (3) Two courses for free election.

MAJOR

Each student must elect, with the consent of his adviser, a field of concentration in which he will take, in accordance with depart¬ mental requirements, at least four and not more than five year- courses. The major must be completed with a quality point aver¬ age of two. The election of major courses by each student is sub¬ ject to the approval of the major department and must be certified by it to the Registrar. The work of the major shall be planned as a unified, coherent whole, and shall not consist of a series of unrelated courses. The major may be confined to the work of a single department, or related departments may offer majors embracing work in each department, if the work is planned and administered as a homogeneous unit. In the case of a student taking a major involving work in two or more departments, all courses for that student must be selected with the advice and with the approval of a representative from each department. The plan of each department or a combination of two depart¬ ments for the prerequisites, scope, content and administration of its major shall be submitted to the committee on scholarship and must be approved by that committee before the plan shall become effective. Morehouse College 47

MINOR

Each student must choose from fields related to his field of con¬ centration a minor in which he will take, in accordance with de¬ partmental requirements, at least two or three year-courses.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS

The College aims to give each student a well-rounded education, and, therefore, the faculty reserves the right to pass upon the qualifications of a candidate beyond the mere completion of the minimum requirement in hours. Proficiency in the fundamental operations of arithmetic such as one acquires through a study of arithmetic, high school algebra, and geometry is required. Each candidate for admission must pass an examination in the fundamentals of mathematics, and students who show weakness in these processes will be required to take a general course in mathematics. Proficiency in oral and written English is required. Each candi¬ date for a degree must pass an examination in English fundamentals and composition during his junior or senior years. Students who intend to satisfy the requirements for a degree must file a formal notice to this effect at the office of the Registrar not later than December 14 if the work is to be completed at mid-year, and not later than April 12 if the work is to be completed at the end of the academic year or summer session. When a student has failed in any required subject that subject must be completed as early as possible, and such work must take precedence over elective or advanced subjects. Work reported as incomplete will be recorded as a failure unless it is completed during the semester following the one in which it was incurred.

Students whose scholarship or deportment" is unsatisfactory may be required at any time to withdraw from the College. The normal load for a student is 15 or 16 hours. Students are not permitted to carry more than this in any one semester unless their general average is B or above.

SCHOLARSHIP RATING

A student’s scholarship rating is indicated by means of the fol¬ lowing grades: A, B, C, D, E, F. Grade “A” indicates work of excellent quality and yields four 48 Morehouse College honor points per hour of credit; grade “B” indicates work of good quality and yields three honor points per hour; grade “C” indicates average quality and yields two honor points; grade “D” indicates work merely passing and yields one honor point. Grade “E” in¬ dicates a condition. Grade “F” indicates failure. One honor point per hour is deducted for each hour of “F.” Incomplete work is in¬ dicated by “Inc.” The requirement for a bachelor’s degree is one hundred and twenty semester hours, exclusive of physical education, and two hundred and forty points, the points being computed according to the plan stated above. The standing of a student for any period of time is the result obtained by dividing the number of points secured by the student during this time by the number of hours for which he was registered. On the basis of 120 semester hours and 240 honor points, in each semester a student should pass in an average of fifteen hours and earn at least thirty honor points. Twenty-four hours and clear¬ ance of all entrance conditions are required for sophomore clas¬ sification; fifty-six hours for junior and eighty-seven for senior. In each case, the number of honor points must be twice the number of hours earned. Morehouse College 49
