SUMMER SESSION he University of the South will conduct a regular Summer Term or Summer Se- mester as an integral part of the aca- demic year of the College of Arts and Sciences beginning this June. In its location at Sewanee, Tennessee, two thousand feet above the sea on a broad plateau of the Cumberland moun- tains, The University of the South has unique advantages for a Summer School. The summer climate is ideal. The nights are cool. The days are bright and clear. The air invigorates both mind and body. The beauty of the campus, community, and domain provides a very attractive environ- ment. The length of the Summer Semester will be twelve weeks. The Summer Semester for 1942 will open on Monday, June 15th ar:d will end on Tuesday, September 8th. There will be four clock hours in each class each week, forty-eight clock hours in each class for the period of twelve weeks. Three semester hours of credit will be granted in each course successfully completed. The average schedule for a student will be four classes, sixteen hours a week, granting twelve (12) semester hour credits for the Summer Term. By special permission and 6 THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH upon payment of an extra fee a student may be allowed to carry a schedule of five classes, twenty hours a week with fifteen (15) semester hour credits. Because of the nature' of the subject, certain courses in Science will be conducted only as year courses. A student carrying a year course in Science in the Summer Term will be limited to one additional four-hour course which he may take only with special permission. A terminal point at the end of eight weeks has been ar- ranged in most classes since there will be a number of stu- dents who may not be able to attend college for the twelve weeks of the full term and who do not need to attend col- lege for the entire twelve weeks. Two semester hours of credit will be granted for each eight-weeks course. The work of the Summer Session will be of the same high order as that of the two semesters formerly constituting the customary academic year. The regular members of the college faculty will comprise the faculty for the Summer Term. The quality of instruction will be, therefore, of the highest order. The University library and all laboratories will be at the disposal of the students of the Summer Session. Freshmen will be admitted in June. A satisfactory pro- gram of freshman classes has been arranged for the Sum- mer Term beginning this June. Women will be admitted to the College for the Summer Term. Full academic credit for their work will be granted and recorded, and a transcript of their Summer Term record will be forwarded to the college they will attend in the fall. Four attractive and comfortable stone dormitories will house the Summer Term students. Johnson Hall, Cannon Hall, and Hoffman Hall will be assigned to men. Sewanee Inn will be assigned to women. Tuckaway will be reserved for visiting parents and friends. The Sewanee View Book SUMMER SESSION J carries pictures of these dormitories and, of course, of the other University buildings. Summer Term students will have the full use of the ex- tensive recreational and sports facilities of The University of the South, particularly attractive during the summer months. The University's excellent golf course, four special all-weather tennis courts, two athletic fields, a quarter- mile cinder track, two gymnasiums, four badminton courts, a swimming pool, and hiking, camping, and horseback riding on the University's ten-thousand acre domain present to the summer college student at Sewanee remarkable opportuni- ties for recreation and athletic sports of all kinds. ADMISSION Advanced students, men and women already in college, will be admitted to the Summer Session of The University of the South upon receipt of an application for admission to the Summer Term with a statement that they are students in good standing in the institution which they are attending. It is not necessary for upper classmen to present a tran- script of their college work for admission to the Summer Term. On the other hand, a transcript of the complete rec- ord may be helpful or necessary for proper counseling by the Dean or members of the Schedule Committee as to the correct or best choice of courses in the Summer Session. Freshmen will be admitted to the Summer Session upon receipt of an application for admission and a transcript of their high school record showing graduation from an ac- credited secondary school and fifteen units four (4) of which must be in English and two (2) in Mathematics, or, in lieu of a transcript of graduation with fifteen units, the equivalent by examination. : THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH SUMMER SESSION REGULATIONS The general regulations governing The University of the South and its student body as set forth in the catalogue of the University will prevail during the Summer Session ex- cept that attendance at the daily Chapel services in All Saints' Chapel will not be compulsory and that attendance at Sunday service will be compulsory twice instead of three times a month.
