Davidson College was founded in 1837 by the descendants of those sturdy Scotch Presbyterians who came to America by way of North Ireland, and thus came to be known as the Scotch- Irish. The Scotch have for centuries been noted for their love for education and for their high educational standards. While Davidson was founded by these Scotch-Irish Presbyterians, it has never been sectarian in its teachings. The original charter, which was granted in 1838, states that the purpose of the Col- lege is "to educate youth of all classes without any regard to the distinction of religious denominations, and thereby to pro- mote the more general diffusion of knowledge and virtue."
The Scotch-Irish began to settle in this beautiful, piedmont section of the Carolinas, in considerable numbers, as early as 1750. They built a large number of churches, and practically every church had in connection with it a good classical school. There were a score of such schools in the general territory in which Davidson College is located. Some of them became very noted.
In due time this zeal for higher education resulted in a determination to found a Christian college of high rank. At that time there was no college of any kind in the Western half of the Carolinas. Accordingly, in March, 1835, Concord Pres- bytery enthusiastically passed a resolution approving of the founding of a college. It is well to remember that at that date Concord Presbytery covered the whole of the Western half of North Carolina. It included the territory which has since been set off into Mecklenburg and Asheville Presbyteries. A few months later Bethel Presbytery, which covered the upper and western parts of South Carolina, joined the movement to estab- lish a college. As the years went by all the Presbyteries in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida united in the ownership and control of the College. In more recent years the Presbyteries of South Carolina and Georgia have with- drawn to build their own institution.
The leader of the movement to found a college was Rev. Robert Hall Morrison, pastor of historic Sugaw Creek Church, near Charlotte, N. C. He and Rev. P. J. Sparrow, of Salis- :
16 Davidson College bury, N. C, raised $30,000.00 for the proposed college in an incredibly short time. The new institution was named David- son College as a tribute to the memory of General William Lee Davidson, a Presbyterian Revolutionary hero, who was killed at Cowan's Ford, only a few miles from Davidson College, as he opposed Lord Cornwallis. The land on which the College stands was secured from General Davidson's son, who, in turn, became a large contributor to the support of the College. The corner stone of Davidson College was laid on April 7, 1836, "in the presence of a large concourse of people." The original buildings were erected on the four sides of a rather small quadrangle, on the front side of the present campus.
Five of those original buildings are still standing and still serving useful purposes. The main building stood on the north end of the quadrangle. It contained the class-rooms and the chapel, where daily chapel exercises and the church services were held. It came to be known as the "Old Chapel." In 1902 it was enlarged by the use of money contributed by Dr. J. B. Shearer, and then rededicated as "Shearer Biblical Hall." The Eumanean and Philanthropic Society Halls stood, and still stand, on the south end of the quadrangle. Oak Row stands on what was the west side of the quadrangle, and Elm Row on the east side.
On March 1, 1837, Davidson College began its career as an educational institution, with three professors (including the president), and sixty-five students. Rev. Robert Hall Mor- rison, D.D., was the first president. He resigned in 1840 on account of ill health, but continued to serve as a trustee of the College for a number of years. At first the College had a com- pulsory, manual labor feature, but this feature proved to be unsatisfactory and was dropped at the end of four or five years.
We may anticipate here and say that the following is a com- plete list of the names of the presidents of Davidson College. The dates indicate their tenure of office Rev. Robert Hall Morrison, D.D. (1836-1840). Rev. Samuel Williamson, D.D. (1841-1854). Rev. Drury Lacv, D.D. (1855-1860). Rev. John Lycan Kirkpatrick, D.D. (1860-1866). Rev. George Wilson McPhail, D.D., LL.D. (1866-1871). Historical Sketch 17
Prof. John Rennie Blake, A.M., Chairman of Faculty (1871-1877). Rev. Andrew Dox Hepburn, D.D., LL.D. (1877-1885). Rev. Luther McKinnon, D.D. (1885-1888). Rev. John Bunyan Shearer, D.D., LL.D. (1888-1901). Prof. Henry Louis Smith, Ph.D., LL.D. (1901-1912). Prof. William Joseph Martin, Ph.D., M.D., LL.D. (1912- 1929). Rev. Walter Lee Lingle, D.D., LL.D. (1929).
During the first twenty years of its existence the young col- lege had one prolonged financial struggle. It had a good fac- ulty and the student enrollment was satisfactory, but there was no endowment and no adequate income for current expenses.
A sudden turn came in the affairs of the College when, in 1856, it received nearly a quarter of a million dollars, through the bequest of the late Maxwell Chambers of Salisbury, N. C. That was a large sum of money for those days. New and enlarged plans were made for the College. A new quadrangle of noble proportions was planned, about one hundred and fifty yards east of the old quadrangle. One unit in the new quad- rangle was erected in 1857, at a cost of about $90,000, and named "The Maxwell Chambers Building." It contained class rooms, auditorium and dormitories. The Old Chambers, as it came to be known, was a handsome building, and served a large purpose in the life of the College for a period of sixty- four years.
The Maxwell Chambers bequest also gave the College a real endowment, which greatly relieved the financial distress. The College started upon a new career. Then came the Civil War, The student attendance was greatly decreased and the greater part of the endowment was lost. Practically all the students and alumni of the College who were physically qualified enlisted in the army, and many of them lost their lives. After the war came the reconstruction period, with all of its demoralization. But in spite of this the College began to build up a stronger faculty than it had ever had in its history. Between 1868 and 1877 the following unusually able men became members of the faculty: Dr. Charles Phillips, Col. W. T. Martin, Dr. James F. 18 Davidson College
Latimer, Dr. A. D. Hepburn, Dr. William M. Thornton, Dr. John Russell Sampson, and Dr. William W. Carson. Few insti- tutions of that day could boast of such a group of men. As these men retired, other strong men took their places, and from that day to this the members of the faculty have ranked high in scholarship and in personality. However, there was no large increase in the number of stu- dents, or in the endowment, between 1870 and the close of the century. The South had been impoverished by the Civil War. With the beginning of the Twentieth Century there was an educational revival in the South. Prosperity had also begun to return to this impoverished section. Under the energetic leadership of a new president, the College entered upon a period of expansion. The student attendance grew. The endowment was increased. Xew dormitories and other buildings were erected. The faculty was enlarged. In the campaigns for increased endowments the General Education Board in New York made a number of handsome contributions and thus made the success of the campaigns possible. On November 21, 1921, the Old Chambers Building was burned. It had stood there as the center of College life so long that its destruction seemed a mortal blow. But through the indefatigable labors of the president and his capable associates, the money was raised and a New Chambers Building erected at a cost of more than Six Hundred Thousand Dollars. This building was completed in 1929 and dedicated at Commence- ment in 1930. The General Education Board and several loyal alumni made large contributions towards the erection of the New Chambers. The year 1926 marks the beginning of a new era of expan- sion for Davidson College. In that year Davidson College began to receive five per cent of the income of "The Duke Endowment.'' Thus far this has increased the income of the College nearly seventy thousand dollars annually. That has enabled the College to enlarge its faculty and increase its student body. The Duke Endowment was created by the late James B. Duke, of Charlotte, N. C, and New York, with a capital of Forty Million Dollars. The fact that a business man of such large affairs should, without solicitation, remember Davidson :
Historical Sketch 19
College in providing for the distribution of the income from his endowment, is in itself a tribute to the College.
It is impossible to condense the history of Davidson College into a few pages. The full history has been written by Miss Cornelia Shaw in a book of over three hundred pages. The College is now nearly a hundred years old. Each generation has contributed something in love, in loyalty, in money, and in ideals to make its spirit finer than it was before. The infant institution of 1837 has grown into a strong College with an able faculty of over forty men, and a student enrollment of six hundred and forty. The grounds, buildings and equipment are worth approximately Two Million Dollars. The endowment which it holds in its own name amounts to about Nine Hundred and Ffty Thousand Dollars. The income from The Duke Endowment, which is held by The Duke Endowment Trustees, represents an additional endowment of approximately $1,175,- 000.00. The annual current expense budget of the College amounts to about $300,000.00. The standing of the College in the Educational World is indicated in some facts which are stated in the paragraph which follows
Davidson College is a member of the Association of Amer- ican Colleges, is on the list of colleges approved by the Asso- ciation of American Universities, is a member of the Associa- tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States, and a member of the Presbyterian Education Association of the South. Davidson also has a chapter of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. GROUNDS AND BUILDINGS GROUNDS Location
Davidson College is located twenty miles north of Charlotte. North Carolina, on a branch line of the Southern Railway, and on one of North Carolina's finest hard surfaced highways. It is easy of access from all direction by rail, by automobile, and by bus. Campus
The campus consists of about fifty acres. It is set in grass and shaded by elms and oaks. On this campus there are located fifteen college buildings. The College also own sixty- five acres of land adjacent to the campus on which is a nine- hole golf course. Athletic Fields
The Richardson Field is a splendid athletic field with a con- crete stadium. It contains two football fields, a baseball diamond, and a cinder running track. This field was made possible by the generosity of two brothers, Messrs. H. S. and L. Richardson, and is dedicated to the memory of their father the late Mr. L. Richardson. The Sprunt Field is a well-graded athletic field, covered with a fine turf, and is used for Freshman football practice and drill ground. This field was made possible by the liberality of Mr. W. H. Sprunt, of Wilmington, N. C. Near the athletic fields are a dozen well-constructed Tennis Courts, which are open for the greater part of the year. A Golf Course of nine holes is located on College property adjacent to the athletic fields. This course is open to all stu- dents free of charge. BUILDINGS New Chambers New Chambers, replacing Old Chambers, which was burned November 28, 1921, is a magnificent structure of brick and stone of some 325 feet of frontage. It is built in three units. One unit provides administrative offices, classrooms, and pro- Grounds and Buildings 21
fessors' offices. The middle unit contains a beautiful and spa- cious auditorium, seating nearly twelve hundred people and furnished with a great Skinner Pipe Organ, costing $20,000, a gift of Mrs. Cameron Morrison, of Charlotte, N. C, who also gave a Steinway Duo-Art Piano for the auditorium. This unit also contains a Banquet Hall, seating six hundred, with a well-equipped kitchen ; also a Board Room and a Faculty Room. The third unit provides abundant space for the departments of Physics, Geology and Biology and is furnished with the best of laboratory equipment. The building cost six hundred thou- sand dollars aside from the organ and other furnishings.
The Library The Library Building was erected through the generosity of Mr. Andrew Carnegie, at a cost of $20,000. The Library contains 35,427 bound volumes, comprising not only the most important and indispensable older books, but the best of the more recent books. The Library also includes a great number of the public documents and state papers of the United States Government. Besides these, the Library con- tains a large number of valuable pamphlets not bound. Most of these are in place in attractive steel shelves. On the tables of the reading room are found over 150 of the leading monthly or weekly magazines and journals. The newspaper racks con- tain dailies from various sections of the country. There is a substantial fund set apart annually for the purchase of new books to meet the needs of the several departments of the Col- lege and of the student body as a whole. In 1930, The Carnegie Corporation of New York awarded Davidson College $15,000.00 which has been paid in three equal, annual installments, for the purchase of new books. Orders for new books are made three times a year, Nov. 1st, Feb. 1st, and May 1st, before which dates the list of new books desired by each department shall be presented to the Librarian, or chairman of the Library Committee.
Laboratories
The Martin Chemical Laboratory is a substantial building,
erected as a memorial to the late Col. W. J. Martin, who was Professor of Chemistry at Davidson for a quarter of a century. 22 Davidson College
The Biology Laboratory and the Physics Laboratory are located in the North Wing of the handsome New Chambers Building. Both are well equipped. Shearer Biblical Hall In 1902 the Old Chapel, which was erected in 1837, was rebuilt, enlarged and rededicated as The Shearer Biblical Hall. It has been largely supplanted by the New Chambers, but its auditorium is still used for student mass meetings, band prac- tice and other useful purposes. The Literary Society Halls The Eumanean and Philanthropic Society Halls are among the oldest and most interesting buildings at Davidson. Both halls are well equipped for their purposes and have made a large contribution to the development of the literary and speak- ing gifts of the students for many years. The rooms under the Society Halls are used by the Y. M. C. A. Oak Row and Elm Row These quaint buildings served as dormitories when the Col- lege was first opened and for many years afterwards. They are now used as offices by student publications and other organ- izations. Morrison Memorial Hall This building was erected in 1890, as a memorial to the first president of the College, and used for many years by the Y. M. C. A. At present it is used by the department of Physi- cal Education. Alumni Gymnasium A beautiful and well-planned building was erected in 1914 from funds given by the alumni. The second story contains the gymnasium room, with a balcony, auxiliary gymnasium, office lobby, and two physical examination rooms. The third story contains the quarters of the gymnasium director, club room and classroom. Museum A large room in the New Chambers Building has been set apart as a Museum. When the Old Chambers Building was burned in 1921 a very valuable mineralogical and geological collection was destroyed, along with many articles of historical interest. Progress is being made towards a new collection. Grounds and Buildings 23
Geological and mineralogical specimens and such other collec- tions as belong in a museum will be welcomed. The College Infirmary The Infirmary is located on College property near the cam- pus. This building was erected in 1901, and was presented to the College by Dr. J. P. Munroe and Dr. J. B. Shearer in 1912. It is in charge of Dr. J. W. MacConnell, College physi- cian, and Mrs. Alice Robson, a trained nurse of long and suc- cessful experience. Students who are sick receive every pos- sible attention. The College fees entitle a student to free medical treatment by the College physician and nurse, for ordinary cases of sick- ness or accident. The student pays for all medicines, band- ages, and so forth, except those of an inexpensive nature. Con- sultation with, or treatment by, any other physician than the College physician and any extra nursing are at the expense of the student. If it is necessary for the student to remain in the Infirmary he will be charged for board at the rate of $1.25 per day. Students are advised to consult the College physician freely on all matters pertaining to their health. He is at the Infirmary office from 10:00 to 12:00 daily. If medical atten- tion is needed outside these hours the student will report to the nurse at the Infirmary who will call the physician if needed. Professors' Residences The College owns eighteen professors' residences, which are conveniently located in the neighborhood of the campus. Dormitories There are five dormitory buildings. They are built of brick, heated by steam, and equipped with modern conveniences. The three largest dormitories are fireproof, and all of them have approved fire escapes. Practically all the rooms are built for two students each. There are a few single rooms. The rooms are furnished with single beds and mattresses, study table, chiffonier, and bookracks. The student provides his own bed linen, blankets, towels, etc. Many students also provide their rooms with rugs, curtains, chiffonier scarfs and other home- like touches. Rooms are cared for by competent janitors. Mrs. N. T. Smith is the efficient supervisor of dormitories. Neat- ness and tidiness are encouraged in the care of the rooms. ;
24 Davidson College
The following is a list of the dormitories with the capacity of each: East Dormitory—One hundred and twenty-two students West Dormitory—One hundred and twenty-two students
Watts Dormitory—One hundred and eighteen students ;
Georgia Dormitory—Sixty-three students ; Rumple Dormitory—Sixty students. Fraternity Court A unique feature at Davidson College is Fraternity Court. It consists of eleven houses for Greek letter fraternities, which were erected by the College in a grove on the campus. These are attractive, one-story brick buildings. Each building con- sists of a large reception hall, another large room in which official meetings are held, and a kitchenette. The houses do not contain any dormitories and do not have any boarding departments. They are attractive social centers where the mem- bers of the fraternities meet and where they entertain their friends from time to time. These social centers render a good service in creating intimate friendships and in developing social gifts. Lighting, Water and Sewerage Systems Light for buildings and grounds and electric power for the College pumping station and laboratories are secured from the Southern Power Company. The College secures its water from the town supply, which is abundant and under the regulations of the State is of assured purity. All dormitories, laboratories, etc., are thus supplied with an abundance of water. Through the generosity of W. H. Sprunt, Esq., of Wilmington, a com- plete sewerage system, with septic tank, was added to the equip- ment of the College. The town of Davidson has its own complete lighting, water and sewerage systems. The Laundry The College maintains a laundry sufficient to do all un- starched work for the students. For hygienic and other rea- sons all students are required to patronize this laundry. The charge is as low as allows for the proper conduct and care of the plant. The College has recently installed a modern dry cleaning plant, which takes care of the work of the students and faculty at a minimum cost. ADMISSION General Requirements Applicants for admission should enter into correspondence with the Registrar at as early a date as possible. There is a limit to the number of students that the College can take. We, therefore, advise application for entrance and payment of the registration fee of $10.00 at an early date in the spring. In acceptance of students, preference is given to those presenting the best evidence, in point of scholarship, character and person- ality, of qualifications for success in college work. Students who have not done a high grade of work in high school are more than apt to fail in college.
Admission from High School by Certificate
The candidate must present a certificate (blank is furnished by the College on application) of his high school records, care- fully and completely filled out and signed by the superintendent or principal of his school. In addition, the superintendent or principal must recommend that the applicant be accepted by the College, before his application can be considered. A state- ment of good moral character is required. For unconditional admission to Freshman standing it is necessary for the appli- cant to present from the authorities of an accredited school a minimum of fifteen units of high school work, as follows (fig-
ures represent minimum requirements in high school units) :
A.B. 1 A.B. 2 B.S. English 3 English 3 English 3 Mathematics 3 Mathematics 3 Mathematics 3 Latin 4 Foreign Language __4 Foreign Language _-2 History 1 History 1 History 1 Electives 4 Electives 4 Electives 6
English : As many as four units in English will be accepted, but this amount of credit will be allowed only when the Regis- trar is satisfied that the work done in any given school is of a superior order. No conditions are allowed.
Mathematics : No conditions are allowed. The requirement in Mathematics includes two years of Algebra and one of Plane Geometry. The work in Algebra would take the student through quadratics, binomial theorem and progressions. 26 Davidson College
Languages : Four units of Latin or two of Latin and two of another foreign language are required for entrance to the A.B. 1 course. Four units of any foreign language or two in each of two foreign languages are required for entrance to the A.B. 2 course. Two units in any one foreign language are required for entrance to the B.S. courses. A student may be admitted to either of the A.B. courses, conditionally with only two foreign language units, provided his record is otherwise good, and he has shown linguistic aptitude. The student enter- ing conditionally must, however, remove the condition before the beginning of his second year.
Electives : It is recommended that Greek be offered among the electives for A.B. 1, and two units in French, German or Spanish in addition to Latin among the electives for A.B. 2. If Physics, Zoology, Botany or Agriculture are offered, a credit of one unit is given only when the course is accompanied by laboratory work, a suitable record of which is kept in a note- book. A unit's credit in Bible is allowed, but each school's course is judged on its merit. While a maximum of two units in vocational subjects may be accepted for entrance to the A.B. courses and three for B.S. courses, they are not considered generally desirable and will be carefully scrutinized as to con- tent and time given to them. Purely mechanical courses are not accepted.
Admission in Special Cases
In the case of a mature man, over twenty years of age, wish- ing to pursue a special course preparatory to entrance to a Theological Seminary, the Faculty may waive the ordinary entrance requirements, provided evidence of ability to carry college work in the courses to be pursued is given.
Admission by Examination
Entrance examinations at the College are held from 9 A.M. to 12 M., and from 2 to 5 P.M., on Tuesday and Wednesday of the opening week. New students arriving later may be examined on entrance, but all are urged to be present at the opening of the term. Much is lost by delay of even a day or two. Admission Zl
Advanced Standing on Basis of High School Work
To no high school is given the right to enter students by certificate in studies higher than Freshmen. Candidates for advanced standing on the basis of high school work must stand an examination on such work within thirty days of admission to college and at a time set by the Dean of Faculty and Chair- man of the Committee on Graduation.
Advanced Standing from Other Colleges
Certificates of courses successfully pursued at colleges and universities of equal grade with Davidson will be accepted at their full value. Students coming from other institutions of college grade must present a letter of honorable dismissal, to- gether with a detailed statement of both high school and college credits to which they are entitled.
Matriculation and Registration
Freshmen will be registered on Tuesday and should arrive on Monday or early Tuesday. Tuesday evening at 7 :30 the Freshmen will meet in the Chapel where one or more of the Faculty will talk to them about their work and college life. These conferences will be continued through Wednesday, ac- cording to schedule to be announced Tuesday evening.
Old students returning will be registered Wednesday and should complete their matriculation not later than the after- noon of that day. All students are required to report to the Treasurer and the Registrar within twenty-four hours after their arrival. This also applies, as far as the Treasurer is con- cerned, to all students returning for the spring term. Matricu- lation offices are in the Administration Building. Students returning after Christmas will report to the Treas- urer by 6 P.M. of the opening day. Any student registering later than this will be charged a delayed registration fee of $2.00 a day until he registers, but the maximum total charge for delayed registration shall not exceed $10.00. This charge will not be made in case of illness, or where the student is other- wise providentially hindered from registering on time.
New students will be classified provisionally, in accordance :
28 Davidson College
with certificate previously submitted, examinations taken, and consultation with the professors in the respective departments. A thorough physical examination at the opening of the fall term, or immediately on entrance, is required of each student at the hands of the College physician and the Professor of Physical Education.
Selection of College Courses
The modern college offers such a wealth of elective courses and subjects that the inexperienced student is often at a loss what course he should pursue, even though he knows, or thinks he knows, what his life work is to be. The majority of students have a fairly clear idea of what their work after college days is to be, especially if they are going into one of the professional fields. Those who have not decided on their life work are at some disadvantage, though not seriously so, if they are willing to spend a short time, after they have made their decision, in taking such basal courses as have been left out. Of such students some extra study will be required but they will be so much the better prepared. Davidson College offers four fairly clear-cut courses, any one of which will give a student a good cultural education. We would suggest to students who are undecided about their life's vocation that they select that course which most nearly prepares them for some field toward which they have a leaning. If they change their line of work they can, without serious loss of time, change their preparatory work to suit. We would suggest to such students that the A.B. 1 course is probably the best course to select for general culture, from which, as a basis, almost any line of further study can well "take off." This is the classical course and it has been the college course of many of the masters in every vocation in life. More particularly at this time are we concerned with those who have selected their life work and wish, after college gradu- ation, to take advanced work in preparation for their calling. Medical school especially, and with increasing emphasis all professional schools, are insisting on certain fundamental courses preparatory to professional study. The following sug- gestions are offered to entering students Admission 29
Candidates for Graduate Work in the Universities
The leading universities of our country require detailed in- formation regarding the mentality, industry, and scope and character of the scholastic record of each applicant before admit- ting him to the graduate school as a candidate for an advanced degree. While universities differ in minor matters as to their requirements, all are looking only for men prepared to do the quality and quantity of work expected of thoroughly equipped students.
The graduate student is expected to pursue work in one major subject and in one or two minors. The minor is ordinar- ily taken in a field closely related to the major subject, or is perhaps a subdivision of the major. While a student may some- times be admitted, who took only eighteen semester hours of undergraduate work in the subject that is to be his major in the graduate school, still most leading universities expect the applicant for admission to have completed 36 to 40 semester hours in his principal subject and related fields. If History, for example, is to be his major in the graduate school, the appli- cant for admission should have completed with high standing a total of at least 36 to 40 semester hours in History and such related fields as Economics, Political Science, Philosophy. If Chemistry is his chosen field for graduate work, the applicant should in like manner have completed at least 36 to 40 semester hours of undergraduate work in Chemistry and related fields such as Physics and Biology.
Candidates for the Master's degree are expected to be able to read French, or German, or both, with facility. Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy are required to be able to read both German and French, preferably before admis- sion to the graduate school. In the best universities the student is expected to make extensive use of one or both of these lan- guages. A concession is ordinarily made to applicants not qualified in both of these languages at the time of admission to the graduate school, and qualifying examinations may be taken later under professors of languages in the universities.
In certain fields of study a knowledge of other languages is required. In some cases Spanish may be substituted for Ger- 30 Davidson College
man, for example, when the student is to take his major in the field of American History. Students should select not later than the Junior year in col- lege the university at which each prefers to do his graduate work, should study its requirements, and in his Senior year he should round out as effectively as possible his preparation for graduate work in his chosen field at the university of his pref- erence. The Candidate for the Ministry Candidates for the Ministry are urged to take Greek and either Latin or German during their first years, later to take as much of the Sciences as possible, certainly including Biology and Geology, and to major in the Social Science Group or English. Every candidate should take at least one course each in Philosophy, Psychology, Economics, and Sociology, should certainly include a semester of Ancient History, and some of the Mediaeval and modern European and English His- tory. Abundance of work in English is of vital importance to a man who will speak in public all his life. A knowledge of the principles of modern education will be of great aid to a pastor. A student ambitious to attain a high degree of scholarship at Seminary, at a university, or thereafter will find himself seriously handicapped unless he has attained in college a facility in reading Greek. Latin and German, while French will open to him a great literature in the field of archeology and ancient civilizations.
The Candidate for Medicine
A.B. 2 is highly to be recommended. It is assumed that the student has the fundamentals of Latin and he will do well to take at least two years of Greek. He should take as his Modern Language preferably German. It will be very well for him to postpone Bible II until his Junior year, and in its place to take a laboratory science, preferably Physics 2. He should also take in this year Chemistry I. If he does not take the A.B. 2 course, then B.S. 1 should certainly be chosen with Chemistry or Biology in the Freshman year and by the postponement of Bible II, two sciences, one of which should be Chemistry, should be taken in the Sophomore year. In his Junior and Senior Admission 31
years, the student majors in the Science group. When he has finished he should have had in Science a minimum of one course each in Physics and Biology and two courses in Chem- istry (general and organic). Some medical schools require some Latin, some a reading knowledge of German and French (which calls for the equivalent of two college years in each), and some a reading knowledge of either one. One year in Psychology should be taken and a year in Philosophy is strongly to be recommended. Such vacancies as remain may be filled by the student according to his pleasure. If he knows what medical school he expects to attend he should promptly find out its requirements and arrange to meet them fully.
The Candidate for Law
A.B. 1 or A.B. 2 course is strongly recommended. Major in the Social Science group. Take Accounting, but pay special attention to English, Economics, History, Psychology, Philos- ophy, Political Science, and Applied Mathematics 1 (Survey- ing)- The Candidate for Engineering
Students expecting to enter an engineering school after grad- uation should take either A.B. 2, or B.S. 1, majoring in Mathe- matics or Physics in either case. Four years of Mathematics, two of Physics, including Physics 4a and 7a, and one of Chem- istry, should be taken. It is recommended that French or German be taken during the Freshman and Sophomore years, and Spanish during the Junior and Senior years. Those stu- dents looking forward to Chemical Engineering should take three years of Chemistry. It is desirable that Bible II be post- poned a year and Chemistry or Physics taken in its place. The following courses are recommended for the Junior and Senior electives : Political Science, 1, Economics 1, Business 3, History,
Applied Mathematics 1 and 2, Geology, Astronomy, Physics.
The Candidate for Educational Work
For those expecting to teach in any department, except possibly Science, A.B. 1, or, if the student has had four years of Latin in the high school, A.B. 2 with Greek as the Ancient Language, is strongly recommended. If a student is to teach 32 Davidson College
one subject he should elect that subject as early in his course
as possible and take all courses offered in it. He should consult with the professor in charge of that subject with reference to his work collateral to his main subject. He should remember clearly that to (jet a first grade certificate he must take a mini- mum of twenty-one semester hours in the Professional courses. If General Science is to be taught, courses in Biology, Chem- istry and Physics should be taken. The Candidate for Religious Education One of the A.B. courses should be taken. The student should major in the Biblical Department, selecting other courses in Psychology. Philosophy and Education. The Candidate for Business
B.S. 2 course is recommended. Students planning for Busi- ness will naturally major in the Social Science and Commerce group, with as many subjects as possible chosen from the other groups. Courses in Economics and Business Administration will, of course, be taken. A study of Modern Languages will be bene- ficial. The study of English should be emphasized, as the abil- ity to write and speak clearly and concisely is of great impor- tance to the business man. To secure the broad training which is today demanded of business men, courses should be taken in History, Philosophy. Political Science, Geology and other subject along the lines of special interests of the student. There is hardly any work- in life today which calls for more general information than that of Business. The student will do well to use the opportunity offered to secure this broad, cultural training. Training for Church Work
Since Davidson is a Church College, and since by past expe- rience we know that aside from those of its graduates who enter the Ministry a large majority become deeply interested in the Church and its work, we suggest to all who are not going to a Theological Seminary the wisdom of taking the courses in Church History and Christian Evidences and Religious Edu- cation. To any layman who desires to be active in Church work—and all should be—these courses will prove most help- Admission 33 ful. The student has in these courses an unusual chance to enlarge greatly his usefulness in Christian service and to become a much wiser leader in the Church. A Church member who knows the history of the Church is more apt to be conservative, and one who is familiar with the evidences of Christianity will be in a position to do much more effective Christian work. The President or any professor is glad of an opportunity to counsel with a student on the subject of his course or life work.
Summer Session
A summer session of the College is conducted offering a wide range of courses for college students, teachers and high school graduates who are deficient in credit for college entrance or who wish to secure advance standing. Special bulletin of the summer session can be obtained by writing to the Registrar or to Prof. F. K. Fleagle, Director. The 1933 summer session will be held from June 5 to July 14. : :

Those students who wish to pursue Latin in College on the basis of two units of Latin in the high school may, if this subject was studied during the last two years of high school, or, if reviewed thoroughly during the summer immediately pre- ceding entrance to College, enter the course in Latin A.
If a student has had no Greek before entrance or an amount insufficient in preparation for Greek 2, he may begin Greek 1 in College.
If a student presents two units in either French, German or
Spanish, he will either take Course 1 in the language in which he offers the two units, or take Course A in one of the other languages.
Languages begun in the Freshman year must be continued through the Sophomore year. If Course A in a foreign lan- guage is taken in College, credit will be given for it only when Course 1 is completed. If a foreign language is elected after all catalogue requirements in language are satisfied. Course A will be credited. Xo student, however, will be allowed to receive credit for more than two A courses in language.
Where a student wishes to advance earlier in his Science work he may postpone Bible 2 until his Junior year and elect in his Sophomore year a laboratory course in Science, or Mathe- matics 2, in such cases where this course is elective.
The candidate for a degree shall major in one of the three groups to the extent of not less than thirty semester hours, at least eighteen semester hours of which shall be in some one subject. Further, at least six semester hours not counted in the required courses shall be taken outside the group in which the student majors. The remainder of the 130 required semester hours may be elected at will.
A course taken in the Freshman year shall not be allowed to count as part of a student's major.
A student majoring in the Language group must major in one of the languages taken in his Freshman or Sophomore years. Requirements for Degrees 37
Groups of the Junior and Senior Subjects
Social Science and Natural Science and Language and Literature Commerce Mathematics English Bible Applied Mathematics French Business Astronomy German Economics Biology Greek Education Chemistry Latin Geography Geology Spanish History Mathematiccs Philosophy Physics Political Scie nee Psychology Sociology
The Advanced Course in R. O. T. C. (credit six hours per session) is not included in any group but instructors in History, Political Science or Psychology may designate Advanced R. O. T. C. as a closely related subject for selection by a student ma- joring in either of the three. Additional Graduation Requirements No student will be considered as a candidate for graduation at any Commencement unless by the closing day of the Spring recess of his Senior year he has removed all conditions with the exception of those he is at that time seeking to remove by taking the course or courses in question over in class.
General Requirements in the Use of English
Students whose oral or written English is at any time unsat- isfactory to one or more professors are regarded as conditioned in the use of English. When a student is thus conditioned he is required to take each test given thereafter by the English Department for such conditioned students until he makes a satisfactory grade. When a student has removed his condition in the use of English he may be conditioned thereafter as often as his speech or writing becomes unsatisfactory to one or more professors. No student whose use of English is unsatisfactory will be graduated from the College until he has removed each and every condition of the kind described in this paragraph.
Selection of Courses By April 15th each Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior must, in consultation with the Registrar, select and report the courses he is to take the subsequent session. After this date a fee of 38 Davidson College
$2.50 will be charged for such arrangement of courses. No changes can be made in the list after September 1st except by permission of the Faculty Committee and on payment of $1.00 for each change. When, in the opinion of the Committee, any course has a full enrollment, no more may be admitted.
Credits for Summer Work
Any student desiring to take summer courses and to receive credit therefor toward graduation must first have the approval of the professor in whose department he wishes to receive credit. Such courses must be of college grade taken in a summer school conducted by an institution of at least equal rank with Davidson College, and only such credit will be given as would be allowed toward graduation by the institution conducting the summer school. The student must present from the office of the Registrar of the institution in question a statemnt of the courses taken and their value toward graduation.

We strongly advise young men intending to enter Medicine to take first the complete college course. Where this is impos- sible or undesirable, we offer the above course covering the requirements of those medical schools which require two years of college course for entrance. The course is difficult and requires severe application, but if entered on must be taken in its entirety.
*Biology is optional according to the requirements of the Medical College the student proposes to attend. : : :: : : :
Requirements for Degrees 39
Group Honors
Group Honors : Those students who do all the work of one of the courses (A.B. 1, A.B. 2, B.S. 1, B.S. 2) and special work in one of the groups shall be graduated with high honors, or honors in the group of their concentration. Honors students shall in each semester of their Junior and Senior years carry nine hours of regular class work besides their special honors work.
Purpose of Group Honors : The purpose of Group Honors is to arouse interest in a higher grade of intellectual achieve-
ment ; to develop on the part of the student of initiative the power of independent investigation and critical and construc- tive scholarship ; to offer to him the opportunity to pursue his chosen study as rapidly as his talents permit, and to deal with the content of a field of learning rather than with courses. Groups: Subject to the approval of the professors con- cerned, the following groups may be open to students who are candidates for group honors
Group I Greek, Latin and Ancient History. Group II Modern Language. Group III English. Group IV Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy. Group V: Natural Sciences other than Physics. Group VI History, Economics, Government, Business Administration. Group VII Philosophy, Psychology, Education. Group VIII Bible, Religious Education.
Conditions: It shall be left to the professors in a subject whether honors shall be offered in that subject. Any student who during his Freshman year has averaged B or better and B+ or better during his Sophomore year up to and including the mid-semester grades of the second semester, may apply to the Dean for permission to be a candidate for an honors group course, specifying in detail the special work he wishes to pur- sue. His application shall be accompanied by the recommen- dation of the professors of the group in which he is to major. In order to continue an honors course, the student must main- 40 Davidson College
tain an average of B+ in non-honors classes and must have completed all the work of the first three years before entering upon his Senior year.
In case the professor in any subject decides that a student has not sufficient ground- work in the subject to undertake in his junior vear the work of the honors course, he may be assigned, by the professor in his chosen department, the proper work in the regular courses of his Junior year and begin honors work in that subject in his Senior year. It is understood that he must maintain an average of P>+ in his Junior work to be eligible to take this course.
Supervision : The student who has been admitted to honors courses shall be particularly under the oversight and direc- tion of the professor in charge of the subject in which he does his major work, who, with the professors of the other subjects in the group in which the student is pursuing work, shall have charge of and be responsible for the student's entire program of studies. The professor shall hold frequent conferences with the student and require such written reports or papers as he wills, which report or papers (and theses, if required) shall be kept on file for inspection by the professors of the group.
Examinations: The professors of the group shall subject the student to semester examinations of a general type to deter- mine whether he is maintaining an honors standard. During the last month of his Senior year the student must stand com- prehensive oral and written examinations on the entire field of his major subject. The oral examinations shall be conducted by the professor in charge, assisted by some other professor in the group in which the student's major work lies, or, in case there is no such other professor, he shall be assisted by the professor in the most closely related subject or by a professor of the same subject in some other institution. The professor in charge and the other professors in the group shall review and grade the work of the student and recommend him for such honors as they find he has earned. Requirements for Degrees 41
Preparation for Advanced Work
The man who proposes to give his life to some form of pro- fessional work should in his preparation bear two things in mind. First, that he needs a completed college course and degree before he undertakes the work of his professional school. If he is to enter the field of the ministry, teaching, engineering, medicine or commercial scientific work, this preparation is prac- tically demanded of him by the Seminaries and Universities. Second, that his college course should include every subject stated as a prerequisite by the University he is to attend, and as many others as will bear directly on his future studies. Here many make mistakes ; they leave out subjects essential to proper preparation for their advanced study and take many not essen- tial. Especially is this true of some who propose to enter Med- ical Schools, Seminaries, or graduate schools in which higher degrees are to be sought.
The new student and his parent are urged to seek expert advice in this matter before the College course is begun. The College authorities attempt to keep informed of the demands of the graduate and professional institutions and will gladly give advice.
The Medical Schools especially are rigid in their require- ments of the content of the College course and of high stand- ing in the College work. All technical, literary and scientific institutions of advanced instruction are yearly becoming more exacting in these requirements. See page 28 and following. Selection of College Courses.

The aims and objectives of the Department of Physical Edu- cation are fourfold : To enable students to keep themselves physically fit for the demands of college life through exercise ;
78 Davidson College
and to encourage them to maintain good health during later years through their knowledge of personal hygiene; to offer a medium whereby they may enjoy associations and healthful experiences that are of educational value ; to develop aptitude in and wholesome attitude toward such recreational activities as may be carried over into later life ; to instruct prospective teachers in methods of physical training that they may be bet- ter equipped for such vocation. PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS, conducted by the College Physician and by the Professor of Physical Education, are re- quired of all students at the beginning of each fall semester. The vital and sensory organs are carefully examined, bodily defects noted and corrective exercises prescribed if advisable, physical measurements taken, typhoid inoculation and small- pox vaccination given in cases requiring such preventive meas- ures, and past diseases are recorded ; all such data is placed on individual hygiene charts and kept on file for reference. No student whose examination reveals an impairmenet of any vital organ or whose general physical condition warrants careful supervision is permitted to engage in athletics activities. PHYSIOLOGY and HYGIENE LECTURES are given by the College Physician to members of the Freshman Class these lectures touch upon the structure of the human anatomy as well as upon the function of organs and muscles, but chief emphasis is placed upon personal hygiene in order that these stu- dents, just entering upon their four years of college life, may learn to know the principles of health. Attendance is required throughout this series of lectures.
PHYSICAL EXERCISE is required of all students not excused by the College Physician. Members of the R. O. T. C. satisfy such requirement by taking military drill and calis-
thenics ; other students may do so by engaging in any of the prescribed activities or by participating in intercollegate, intra- mural, inter-company, or inter- fraternity sports. Courses of Instruction 79

Assignment of Rooms Assignment of rooms will be made by the Treasurer upon written application. No room will be reserved for a student until his registration fee of $10.00 has been paid, and except in the case of new men, until he has registered his selection of courses for the next semester. If a student wishes to retain the same room he is occupying for another year, he must, in addition to paying his registration fee. notify the Treasurer in writing on or before May 10th, of his desire to hold this room. A student of the College who does not deposit his registration fee by May 10th will be considered as not return- ing the next session, and applications for entrance after this date will be considered only in case the number to be admitted has not been reached. Rooms cannot be assigned to new students until after May 10th, when it has been learned which rooms will be available. The assignment of rooms to new men will be made in order of the application, but no applica- tion will be considered until the registration fee has been paid and high school certificate has been received.

All double rooms are practically the same size, have two windows, two electric lights, and two single beds. (The College furnishes bed, chiffonier and table. The student furnishes his own linens, blankets, pillow and chair.) COLLEGE ORGANIZATIONS Student Government
This is one of the most important student organizations in the College. It includes the entire student body. Student government is administered by the Student Council, which is composed of fifteen members, including the president of the student body, the presidents of the respective classes, five rep- resentatives from the Senior class, three from the Junior class, and two from the Sophomore class. Student government has a detailed and comprehensive constitution, setting forth the pur- pose for which it is organized and the methods by which it works. This constitution is printed in full in the Student Hand- book. Stated in general terms its purpose is "to strive to uphold and preserve the Honor System and all other provisions of the constitution in every department of College life." It has had much to do in creating and maintaining the fine spirit and high ideals which are found on the Davidson College campus.
Young Men's Christian Association
The Young Men's Christian Association stands at the very center of the religious life of the College. It has probably had a larger influence in developing students in Christian char- acter and training them for Christian service than any other single agency in College life. All students are members, or associate members, of the Association. It conducts weekly religious services for the whole student body. As a department of the Association, the candidates for the ministry hold monthly meetings. There are also weekly Bible study, and mission study classes, and weekly meetings of the volunteer mission band. Working under the auspices of the Association the students do various forms of Christian work. Some teach Sunday School classes in organized churches, others conduct Sunday Schools at missions points, while still others go on deputation work to the churches of surrounding towns and cities. At the opening of College each year the Association has committees to meet new students upon their arrival and render them any possible assistance in getting located. The first Monday night of the 94 Davidson College
session the Association gives a reception to the new students to which all students, professors, and friends are invited. The Handbook which the Association publishes annually, giving information about College life and College organizations, is indispensable to new students and to the old ones. Mr. Samuel S. Wiley, Secretary.
Church
The Presbyterian Church, which is located on a corner of the College Campus, has ministered to the spiritual needs of the students for many years. All students are required to attend one church service each Sabbath. Freshmen and Sopho- mores are required to attend the morning service. Juniors and Seniors are given the option of attending either the morning or the evening service. All students are cordially invited to attend all the services of the church. The minister is earnestly desirous of being a real pastor to the young men, and he, as well as the entire congregation, cordially invites all students to make this their church home while here in College. Rev. H. M. MoEEETT, D.D., Pastor
Literary Societies
There are two literary societies, conducted by the students. Many of the students belong to these societies, the membership being practically equal, the quality of work similar. All are well conducted and afford opportunities for training in debate, declamation, composition, public speaking, and parliamentary usage. They award annual prizes for excellence in literary and rhetorical exercises. The training given by these societies is a most valuable part of College education, and every student is urged by the authori- ties of the College to become a member of one of them, and take an active part in its exercises.
Phi Beta Kappa
To the Davidson Chapter of this illustrious scholarship fra- ternity are eligible those members of the Senior class who have attained a high degree of success in their College work. Not College Organizations 95
more than ten per cent of this class can be elected to the society in any one year. Omicron Delta Kappa
This is an intercollegiate honorary fraternity significant of leadership. It seeks to give recognition to those who have ren- dered conspicuous service and to open the way and give inspira- tion for greater usefulness. Its meetings are a clearing house for the exchange of ideas, and bring together on a basis of mutual understanding members of the faculty and leaders of the student body, thus making it possible to see each other's point of view. It fosters proper relationship and clear under- standing between all phases of College activities, and aspires to direct College sentiment, mold campus opinions, and launch forward movements.
Sigma Pi Sigma
This physics fraternity was founded at Davidson in 1921, and now has grown to be a national organization having chapters in twenty-five colleges and universities throughout the United States and the Philippines. It aims to create interest in physics, encourage research and provide a meeting place where faculty and students can come and discuss the prob- lems and progress of this science. Membership is limited to those who have obtained high scholarship and shown due in- terest in this field.
Athletic Association
Athletic matters are directed by a joint committee, composed of three groups. The first group is the student Athletic Council, whose members are elected by the student body. The second group is a Faculty Committee. The third group is the Alumni Athletic Council. These three groups acting together consti- tute the Athletic Association. Of course athletics, as all other departments of the College, are under the final control of the faculty. All students have full athletic privileges, including free admittance to all contests held on the College Campus. Under 96 Davidson College
the supervision of the Professor of Physical Education, any student may engage in any form of athletics for which the Col- lege Physician finds him fitted. The fact that Davidson College has maintained a high stand- ard in intercollegiate athletics may be attributed largely to the interest of the students in the Athletic Association. A suffi- cient number of athletic contests are held on the campus each year to offer students ample opportunity to witness such com- petition without the necessity of expenditure of personal funds. In games played on neutral grounds in nearby cities, such stu- dents as may attend are admitted for half price. In the matter of eligibility for participation in intercollegiate athletic contests, the practice of Davidson College is in har- mony with the policy of the best institutions. Each athletic team is allowed a limited number of days away from College for engaging in games with the other colleges. Further rules and regulations are published in a special bulletin.
Greek Letter Fraternities
There are ten National Greek Letter Fraternities at David- son and one or two local fraternities. Their purposes are largely of a social nature. Fraternities, by agreement among themselves, as well as by a faculty rule, are not allowed to pledge any student until a fixed date soon after the opening of the College in the fall, or to initiate any student during his first term in College. Certain rules and regulations governing this and other phases of fraternity life are published in the bulletin of rules and regulations. Orchestra and Glee Club
These organizations consist of students who have some talent in the use of the voice or of some musical instrument. They are open to all who may be capable of developing into efficient members. Their members practice regularly, and have a piano and a large hall at their disposal. Concert Band
This band plays for College functions other than military and goes with the football team to important games away from College Organizations 97
the campus, besides playing for all athletic contests, on the campus. A colorful uniform is supplied to the members. The band affords students the opportunity to continue their music in the Junior and Senior years if Advanced R. O. T. C. is not taken.
The Military Band
A band of thirty or more members is formed as a part of the Reserve Officer's Training Corps and affords excellent in- struction to the members. The Government furnishes the in- struments.
Social Activities
Davidson is noted for its friendly spirit. Conveniently lo- cated in dormitories on the campus, or in nearby houses, each man comes in close touch with many students and is able to form a wide circle of friends. Students are cordially welcomed into the homes of the faculty members. The centrally located Y. M. C. A. rooms are a common meeting place for all students.
The more formal social occasions of the year include the Freshmen Reception, week-end parties of the fraternities, Junior Class Week, and the social features of Commencement Exercises. COLLEGE LECTURES AND PUBLICATIONS
In 1893 Rev. J. M. P. Otts, D.D., LL.D., endowed a foundation at Davidson College, the income of which is to be used in securing distinguished speakers, from time to time, to deliver at the College courses of lectures in defense of Chris- tianity against current heresies, especially such as may seem directed at the foundations of the Christian faith. It was also the desire of the founder that the lectures should be published in book form.
The first course of lectures on this foundation was given in 1893, by Dr. Otts himself, and published under the title, "Un- settled Questions" : the second was given, in 1897, by Rev. R. L. Dabney, D.D., LL.D., and published under the title,
"Christ Our Penal Substitute" ; the third was given, in 1904, by Rev. J. B. Shearer, D.D., LL.D., and published under the title, "Modern Mysticism"; the fourth was given, in 1921, by Rev. Walter W. 'Moore. D.D., LL.D., on "The Permanence of the Christian Ideal" ; and the fifth was given, in 1930, by Rev. Harris E. Kirk, D.D., LL.D., on "Man's Place in Nature and Beyond." Hereafter, lectures will be delivered on this foundation at least once in every two years.
Special Lectures
A number of outstanding speakers are brought to the Col- lege each year, under the auspices of the Faculty Committee on Public Lectures. They address the students on subjects which are of especial interest in the educational world. Some- times they deal with questions of national and international importance.
Freshmen Lectures
The College has adopted the custom of having what has come to be known as "Orientation Week." For two days at the opening of the session in the fall the members of the Freshman class meet frequently in the College Chapel and hear practical lectures by different members of the faculty on Lectures and Publications 99
various phases of College life. Attendance upon these lectures is required. During the session the College Physician gives a series of ten or twelve lectures to the Freshman Class on Physiology and Hygiene. These lectures are of a very practical nature and are intended to instruct students in the care of their bodies and general health. Attendance is required.
The Davidson College Bulletin
This is a monthly publication and is sent to the alumni, to ministers, and to others who may desire it. The bulletin con- tains many items of interest about the College and its work. It also contains alumni news notes from time to time. The Annual Catalogue is published under the head of the College Bulletin.
Student Publications
The Davidsonian is a high-grade, weekly, College newspaper. Its editors and managers are elected by the student body. It deserves the patronage of all the alumni and friends of the College.
The Yowl is a magazine of college humor which is published four times a year. Its editors and managers are elected by the student body. It is still a young magazine and covets the sup- port of its friends.
Quips and Cranks is the College Annual which is published each year by the Senior Class. It contains much information about classes, fraternities, athletics, musical and literary organ- izations, and many other matters of interest. It also contains many photographs of groups, of individuals, and of buildings.
No student publication is allowed to be issued any year until all arrearages for the previous year have been paid. HONORS, MEDALS AND TROPHIES HONORS

The damage deposit of $2.00, less charges against it, will be refunded at Commencement. 104 Davidson College
Other Expenses
Board. The College does not conduct a boarding depart- ment. The students take their meals at ten or twelve different boarding houses, which are located in the town, near the campus. The price of board ranges from $17.00 to $20.00 a month. Each boarding house has a student manager, who solicits the students when they arrive, and collects the board monthly in advance. Arrangements for board can be made after the stu- dent reaches Davidson. College Inn is owned by the College and leased by the College to private parties on favorable terms on condition that the price of the board there shall be kept as low as is consistent with wholesome fare.
Books. There is a Book Store in the New Chambers Build- ing, where all textbooks and other departmental requirements are sold to students. It is expected that students shall pay cash for their books. The cost of books per year for a student ranges from $20.00 to $40.00, depending on the courses the student is taking and on whether he is able to purchase second- hand books. After the first year many students sell their old books to help pay for new ones. The small profit which the Book Store makes goes to the Societas Fratrum Student Loan Fund.
Clothing, Travel and Incidentals. The cost of clothing, travel and incidentals can best be estimated by the student and his parents. Some students spend much more than others. A student's expenses on the Davidson campus need not be any more than they are at home.
No one need feel that the lack of spending money will bar him from the social or athletic life of the campus or deprive him of influence or popularity. Life at Davidson is essentially dem- ocratic.
If a student joins a Greek letter fraternity he will need extra money for that purpose. :

Tuition and maintenance (paid to College) $200.00 $200.00 Room rent and service (paid to College) __ 50.00 100.00 Laboratory fee (paid to College) 6.00 25.00 For student activities (paid through College office) 14.00 14.00 Athletic fee (paid through College office)-. 10.00 10.00 Laundry (paid to College) 22.50 22.50 Books and stationery (paid to Book Store) 25.00 40.00 Board (paid to private boarding houses) __ 145.00 180.00
Total $472.50 $591.50
(Candidates for the ministry and ministers' sons are granted a reduction of $100.00 from these sums.) FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
A great many students need some kind of financial assist- ance to secure a college education. There are three general ways in which this assistance may be provided. We suggest that the student who needs assistance should study these ways carefully. We list them in the paragraphs which follow. Self-Help
A large number of students at Davidson are meeting a part of their expenses by some form of outside work. The College itself has a limited number of self-help positions. Quite a number of students in the upper classes are awarded positions as monitors, assistants in the Library, assistants in grading papers, and other similar positions. Such positions are awarded on the ground of merit as well as need. There are a considerable number of self-help positions in connection with boarding houses. These are not awarded by the College, but by the boarding houses themselves. Such posi- tions are not usually open to new students, as they are usually secured in person by students who are on the ground. There are also a number of other self-help positions around the town. Some students act as agents for clothing houses, and other mercantile agencies. Or others clerk at the Students' Store, paint signs, or find other employment for which they have spe- cial talent. The Y. M. C. A. maintains a self-help bureau and is always glad to assist new or old students in securing positions. Com- municate with the Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and he will be glad to be of any possible service. It is not usually possible for new students to secure self-help positions before coming to College. Those who are looking for helpers want to see them in person. Not only so, but the Col- lege strongly advises against taking outside work if it can pos- sibly be avoided. It often keeps a student from doing his best work. Scholarships
A second form of financial assistance is found in scholar- ships. Davidson College has a limited number of scholarships, which are awarded to students of promise who are in need of Financial Assistance 107
financial assistance. The average size of a scholarship is $60.00 a year. As a rule, these scholarships are awarded to Fresh- men, as it is difficult for them to secure self-help positions. They are awarded for only one year at a time. Necessary blanks to be used in making formal application for a scholar- ship can be had by writing to the Registrar. These scholar- ships are awarded to those who seem to need them most and who at the same time have made a reputation for faithfulness in their school work. It is expected that those who secure scholarships shall use them for the sole purpose of making themselves the most effective students that it is possible for them to be. The money should not be squandered on luxuries. The College deducts $100.00 a year from the fees of all sons of ministers and all candidates for the ministry who are under the care of the Presbytery. This is, in reality, a scholarship for that amount. As a rule, no additional scholarship is awarded to anyone for whom this deduction has been made. Loan Funds
A third form of financial assistance is found in the Student Loan Fund. Davidson College has a limited loan fund which has served to render assistance to a very large number of students over a long period of years. As a rule, we have not found it advisable to lend money to a first-year man. It is not wise for a student to incur debt so early in his College course. We try to assist worthy Freshmen, who are in need, by scholarsbips as stated above. However, our committee on loans and scholarships is willing to consider the application for a loan on the part of any student who is in need. This loan fund is intended only for those who are actually in need of financial assistance. Loans are awarded on the ground of both need and merit. The general character and the scholastic standing of the applicant for a loan are taken into considera- tion. Applications for loans may be made to the President, or to the Treasurer of the College. A student who receives a loan gives his personal note just as he would do at a bank, and it is expected that his father will endorse the note. The student must agree to begin the payment of his loan out of his first earnings after leaving College, to pay at least 10 per cent of his first and eacb succeeding: salary check until the amount, 108 Davidson College
including interest, has been paid in full, and before taking post- graduate work.
It is our observation that many who borrow money from college loan funds do not take their notes as seriously as thev should do. Some of them graduate, go away and forget their notes. That is true at many colleges. We trust that students who borrow from the Davidson loan fund will consider their notes as sacred and as binding as if they had been made to a bank. If those who borrow from this fund fail to repay, the fund will soon be exhausted.
Sources of Loan Funds
The Student Loan Fund at Davidson has been accumulating for many years and there have been many contributors to it.
The following constitute some of the larger contributions : The
James Sprunt Ministerial Loan Fund, The J. D. Woodside Loan Fund, The Maxwell Memorial Loan Fund, The W. H. Sprunt Loan Fund, The David Prince Loan Fund, The Masonic
Loan Fund, The C. W. Johnston Loan Fund, The J. S. White Loan Fund, and the Societas Fratrum Loan Fund. There is still need for a larger Student Loan Fund than the College now has.
Sources of Scholarship Funds
From time to time, since the founding of the College to the present, friends have been making contributions for the endow- ment of scholarships. Some of these contributions have been small and some have been for several thousand dollars. The average contribution for a scholarship has been one thousand dollars. A great many memorial scholarships of one thousand dollars each have been established. A complete list of all these scholarships will be printed in the College Catalogue every three or four years. By such contributions, from time to time, a very gratifying fund has been accumulated for the endowment of scholarships. Yet this fund is utterly inadequate. As the size of the student body has grown and the cost of living increased, the number of worthy students who need financial assistance has greatly increased. The College needs an additional endow- ment of at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars for scholar- ship purposes. : :

SENIOR UNIT
This organization was established by Congress for the pur- pose of qualifying, through a course of military instruction, selected students at civil educational institutions as reserve offi- cers for the military forces of the Xation. This is attained concurrently with the students' preparations for their civil careers by better fitting them physically, morally, and profes- sionally for the pursuits of peace as well as the emergencies of war. The instruction is sound and wholesome. National de- fense and the maintenance of our national institutions and ideals are taught, together with the benefits, privileges, and responsi- bilities of good citizenship. Young men are trained in command and leadership, which will always fall first as it has in the past in times of national emergencies, to trained and educated men.
Eligibility to membership is limited to those students, not less than fourteen years of age. and being citizens of the United States, who meet the requirements of the physical examination which is given to every student. The Government provides a Professor of Military Science and Tactics, together with the assistants necessary to carry on the instruction in this depart- ment.
The four-year course is divided into two periods. The first period of two years, given for Freshmen and Sophomores, is the Basic Course. The second period of two years, given for Juniors and Seniors who have finished the Basic Course and have been recommended for further training, is the Advanced Course. The completion of either course shall, when entered upon by a student, be a prerequisite for his graduation, unless he shall be discharged from the Reserve Officers' Training Corps by the Professor of Military Science and Tactics with the approval of the President of the College. Students inter- ested in music may take most of their applicatory training in the band, where the credit is equal to that given for tactical training. Reserve Officers' Training Corps 137
The Government furnishes all uniforms and equipment with- out charge, except shoes. Each student taking this course is required to provide himself with Munson last shoes, russet color, similar to those on sale at the Students' Store. These shoes are corrective of foot defects and allow the feet to develop naturally. Students taking the Advanced Course and who satisfy the requirements for attendance at College and at summer camp are paid a commutation of the United States Army rations covering the period of their Junior and Senior years and the intervening vacations, except the six weeks of summer camp, when they are subsisted by the Government. Since the College year 1928-1929 this payment has been about twenty-seven dol- lars quarterly. An allowance is also made toward the purchase of new uniforms for students taking the Advanced Course. This now amounts to forty dollars for the two years. Uniforms thus purchased become the property of the students upon their completing the first year of the Advanced Course. Those attending summer camp are furnished with transpor- tation, subsistence, equipment, and medical attention and, in addition, the pay of soldiers of the seventh grade (twenty-one dollars a month) for the period. The amount actually paid the student taking the Advanced Course is about seventy-eight dollars as a Junior, and ninety- six dollars as a Senior. This does not include his uniform allowance, his pay while attending camp, or his transportation to and from camp. Each year upon completion of the Advanced Course, stu- dents qualified for commissions in the Officers' Reserve Corps will be selected by the President of the College and the Pro- fessor of Military Science and Tactics.
