Ohio, under Act of August 24. 1912. STATEMENT OF AIMS Denison University is a Christian college in the sense that all its instruction is motivated by Christian principles. There is no attempt to force religion into a particular de- nominational expression and all the advantages of the in- stitution are offered to every student without discrimination. Denison University is a college of liberal arts in which the development of persons takes precedence over all other aims. Consequently the University attempts to aid the stu- dent to achieve: —an ability to think honestly, clearly and constructively; —a facility in the oral and written use of English, and some familiarity with the treasures of literature; —an understanding of the meaning and methods of the main branches of learning; —sufficient concentration in one or two fields of learning so that he may be prepared more adequately for his life work; —an interest in the excellent management of his mind and body so that they may become contributing factors in the furtherance of his life aims; —an appreciation of all peoples, past and present, thus de- veloping a cosmopolitan attitude of mind; —a social outlook and way of living that will lead to mu- tually satisfying and helpful relations with others; —an appreciation of beauty as expressed in nature and the arts; —the determination to use his knowledge for human wel- fare; and —a personality developed around Christian principles and ideals. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Statement of Aims 2 University Calendar 4 Board of Trustees 6 Faculty 8 Officers of Administration 13 Society of the Alumni 15 General Information 16 Academic Standing 16 Buildings 17 Campus Life . _ 21 Admission 29 Expenses 36 Scholarships and Grants-in-Aid 38 Academic Honors 46 Registration , 50 Counseling 54 Plan of Study and Degree Requirements 56 Departments and Courses of Study 65 The Conservatory of Music 105 Degrees Conferred April 30, 1945 111 Student Enrollment 1944-45 115 Student Enrollment 1945-46 126 Summary of Attendance 1944-45 and 1945-46 134 Index ...137 Preliminary Application for Admission 139 CALENDAR 1945 1946 IMS 101T lAHOAIT FIRST SEMESTER S M T W S M T W T r S 1 11(1.• 7 ... 1 I I I Frnhnu Days.
