6 Cedar·ville Co/Lege. HISTORY. Cedaruille College was chartered by the state of Ohio in Jan– uary, 1887, and it was opened for instruction Wednesday, Sept. 19, 1894. During the first year the College occupied the fine old mansion house, in which an academy was conducted by Dr. Hugh 1\lcl\Iillan over a third of a century ago. The accommodations, however, were not sufficient for the needs of the second year, so the Trustees erected the large new building on the site pur– chased several years before. Doth the building and the campus are the generous gifts of friends. It is appropnate here to men– tion the long to be remembered gift of \\ illiam Gibson, Esq., of Cincinnati, who bequeathed $25,000 for the endowment fund. For this and various smaller contributions too numerous to men– tion, the authorities of the College are deeply grateful. Though young, the College has already exerted a lasting and widely felt influence. Its student and graduates have taken prominent places in Seminarie , in the Senior classes of Univer– sities like that of Pennsylvania, and in post graduate work of Universities. The College includes four departments, the Classical, the Phil– osophical, the 1\Iusical, and the Elocution. These embrace stud– ents from most of the North Central and Iiddle states, and pre– pare them suitably for the leading profe sion , and for advanced standing in Eastern Universities. GENERAL INFORMATION. NEW COLLEGE BU I LDI NG. The new College Building stands in a campus containing over nine acres, well graded, and beautifully located on the main street, north encl of Cedarville. The erection of the building was begun in the Spring of 1895, and completed late in the Au-
Cedarville ColleJ;e. 7 tunm of the ame year. Ho,vever , it has been occupied through– out the whole of the pa t five years fo r coll egiate purposes. It i - a hand ome building of pres ed brick and cut tone, the plans and pecifications of which \\·ere made by James R . Turner, of ~ · ew York City. The basement contains a gymnasium room, a chemical room, toilet room , coal cellar and the heating appar– a tu . ( )n the fir t floor are four cla rooms, the chapel, and the Pre idenf office, be ide the main and side entrance corridors. On the econd floor are four cla rooms, a large lecture room, and the library. Two large society room occupy the entire third floor. Two wide and gently a cending tairways, one on each side of the building, lead from the basement to the third story. The build– ing i - equipped throughout with electric wires. It _is surmoqntecl hY a bell tower. There are entrances on each of the four side . .'tancling in the center of the campus on the highest site of Ce– dan·ille, the building pre ent an attractive and imposing ap– pearance.

8 Cedarville College. LIBRARY AND MUSEUM. The Faculty and students have organized a reading circle, which receiYes regularly the leading magazines and periodical . The library is well supplied with the latest work in History, Biography, cience, Philosophy, Law, Letter , Fiction, Theology, and References, including two of the latest an.cl fullest Encyclo– pedias. It i free to all tudents. 'tuclents also may have the use of the town library by the payment of a small fee. number of valuable curiosities from the different portions of this country, Europe and Asia, have been collected, and form a nucleus for the museum. Persons haYing in their possession curiosities of animal or geological formation are hereby earnestly requested to contribute them to the college museum, and thus help us to the completion of our collection. LECTURES AND ENTERTAINMENTS. The Lecture Course is under the direct supervision of the college Literary Societies. The best talent of our country and of foreign lands is secured. The course is very popular; and it will be the aim to make it better each season. In addit10n to the college lecture course, other ocieties of Cec\arv1lle usually bring fir t-cla s talent. The tudents, therefore, havP. opportunit)' to hear the best public speakers and edertainers of the clay. RELIGIOUS ADVANTAGES. There are four flourishing churches in town-1\Iethocli t Epis– copal, United Presbyterian, Reformed Presbyterian (Synod), Reformed Presbyterian ( General Synod). Each cf these churches maintains a young people's prayer-neeting once a \Veek. ::.:linety per cent.' of the student in attendance this year are professing Christian . All students are requll"ed to attend the church de– signated by their parents, who are requested to send their writ– ten wishes as to what church their children hall attend. We welcome students of all Christian denominations. The entice-
Cedarville Collej;e. 9 ment to sin, so plentiful in large cities and overcrowded colleges, are not found here. SPECIAL ADVANTAGE. Cedarville College makes no pretension to do the work of a univer ity. It i content to take its place with the smaller col– lege of the land. But it does promise its patrons to do well and thoroughly whatever it claims to do. A college course is not in itself an education. It only opens the doors of a liber– al education for the student. It is a beginning, not an end. This beginning we claim to be able to furnish. A univerity may have hundreds of teachers in its faculty, .thousands of volumes in its library, and the most costly apparatus and exten– sive laboratories. But the student will come in contact with only a few of the professors, read a few of the books, use a few of the appliances. All these he may find here. The small col– leges have done and are doing a great work. They have edu– cated men eminent in Theology, Law, ledicine; Presidents, Judges, Senators. Nor are these cases exceptional. It will be found that a much larger per cent. of the students of smaller college are succes ful in life than of the larger colleges. It i no uncommon thing to find 90 per cent. of the graduate of a small college en~ering the ministry. The reason is apparent-a student who habitually neglects or shirks bis work can not get through. and a student ,vho i living a fast and vicious life cannot sta) in one of these small colleges. gno tics, infidel , or men who indulge in or tolerate drinking, are not found a teach– ers. The professor are generally con crated Chri tians. 11 thi i. true of Cedarville College. The professor are energetic, capable and ympathetic. They are brought into per onal con– tact with the stndcnt daily in the class and out of th cla . The clas e are mall so that student are obliged to recite several time during- each hour. ~ \> student can light work for one <la. "ith<Jut the fart being apparent to the profe ors.

20 Cedarville College. THE COURSES OP STUDY. CLASSICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL. Two courses of study are offered-the Classical Course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts and the Philosophical Course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy. The object of these courses is_to give the student a modern collegiate education. Graduates from either course can enter at an advanced standing in the leading universities. Several mem– bers of our Board of Trustees are graduates of Eastern Univer– sities, and will be pleased to assist the faithful and aspiring stu– dent to a proper standing in eastern universities. The President of the College is a local Examiner for the University of Pennsylva– nia, and will be glad to recommend to that institution any worthy students of Cedarville College who may desire to take an advanced standing or a special course in some university. CLASSICAL DEPARTMENT. In the Classical Department there are daily recitations in all classes. The course consists of teaching and lectures in History, Phil– osophy, Mathematics, Latin, Greek, Rhetoric, English Language and Literature, atural Science, 1ental and Moral Science, Logic, Political Science and Ancient Literature. Its aim is to give the student a broad, practical knowledge of the highest mental, moral and spiritual character. PH I LOSO PH ICAL COURSE. The Philosophical Course is the same as the Classical Course with the exception of Greek, for which German and Philosophical History are substituted. The aim of this course is to accommo– date some who prefer German to Greek. It is equal in length to the Classical Course.
Cedarville College. 21 OPTIONAL STUDIES. Xo election of studies is permitted until the student reaches the enior Collegiate year. In the Senior year the student shall elect with the aid of the faculty, History, 1 atural Science, French, or Hebrew. Experience of the past as well as of the present abundantly prove that the Colleg~ Curriculum of studies dili– gently pur ued will produce better results than an optional course. LATIN , LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE. Special attention is given to the Roman 1ethod of pronunci– ation, to yntax, mythology, history and philology. The prin– ciple of the grammar must be thoroughly mastered; with the reading of the required course there is a constant, thorough drill of parsing, analysis, comparison and composition. A graded and systematic course in prose composition is begun in the Junior Preparatory year and extends to the F reshman Collegiate year. The Latin cour e extends through twelve full terms, and in the la t term each tudent in Latin will be requ ired to prepare a thesis upon some subject assigned by the professor. First Year.-The first two term are devoted to Bennett's Foundation , accompanied by the Grammar. In this time the student is expected to master the inflections, and to lay general foundations for the profitable reading of Latin. The third term's work consists of Cesar and composition . .'econd Year.-The first term includes the more rapid read– ing of Cesar, and the ma tery of entence order. The second and third terms are pent on Yergil's JEneicl, with special atten– tion to I\Iythology, Prosody and Syntax. Prose Composition i madl'. a prominent feature throughout the year. Third Year.-In the Freshman year icero' orations again t Catiline and Horace's Odes Epocles and Satire are tudied. Great l·ar, has ken ·x.ercisecl to select the be t te.·ts in these tudie . 'I he \\'()rl is progressive, and the student's mind is directed to J'(J111a11 History, Uratury, I\Iythology and Poetq. Inch of the
22 Cedarville College. time is taken up in Word Analysis, Pronunciation and Syntax. Close familiarity with scanning and the rules of Poetry is required. During the year the student is required to prepare Essays on the different topics of study and is thus taught to convey to others in his own language and thoughts what he learns in the class– room. Fourth Year.-The Sophomore year presents additional study in History and Satire. Courses are pursued in Livy Tacitus and Juvenal. The transition from the golden to the silver age of Latin Literature is dwelt upon and the differences of idioms are closely investigated. Rhetorical analysis forms much of the year's work and the decline of the Roman Empire is studied from a philosophical standpoint. GREEK LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE. First Year.-The Greek Course begins in the enior Pre– paratory Year. During this year vVhite's First Greek Book is used. In the latter part of this work one term is spent on the Anabasis and Prose Composition, in which there is a constant drill upon the principles of syntax and the use of prepositions. During the first two terms minute attention i given to pronun– ciation, accent, diacritical mark , grammatical constructions and paradigms, by the daily translation of Greek into English and English into Greel,;. From the very beginning the student is required to store away a vocabulary according to the most natural memory method. Twelve hundred words at least are committed to memory in the Senior Preparatory year. The Greek course extends throughout twelve full terms, .at the encl of which each tuclent of the course will be required to prepare a thesis upon some subject assigned by the professor of the department. Second Year.-The Fre hman work in Greek is taken from continued study in the Anabasis. Harper and Wallace's text is usecl. History, the u c of preposition , new words, worcl– analy is, participles, clauses of purpose and result, and the Greek
Cedarville College. 23 army are clo ely studied. In the second term Homer's Iliad is read. The student becomes acquainted with the archaic forms of the language and the rules of prosody. Especially is Myth– ology dwelt upon and a thorough knowledge of the customs and rite of the Homeric days is required. The Homeric question is discussed and the work is studied both from a syntactic and alle– gorical point of view. During the third term of the Freshman }ear selections from the hi tory of Herodotus are read. Peculiaritie:; of dialect and style are impre sed and compared. Third Year.-The Greek of the Sophomore year consists of one term in Memorabilia and two terms in Plato's Apology and Crito. The l\lemorabilia is made an introduction to the study of Plato. Special drill is given on the use of participles . The life and teaching of Socrates are examined in a historical and philosophical light. The Apology and Crito continue the study of ocrate and his methods. l\Iuch timt is devoted to Grecian Philosophy. Fourth Year.-The Junior Year of Greek includes two terms in Demosthenes' Corona and one term in Prometheu Bound. The Corona of Demosthenes is pursued until the student is made familiar with Grecian Oratory and the ancient methods of Rhe– toric. During the third term the Prometheus Bound of JEschylus is read. The metre, mythology, style, peculiar forms 1nd expres– sions of the work, together with I,Ir . Brow111:1g's translation, are carefully tudied. It is e pecially worthy of notice tbat Greek Prose Compoition commence in the Senior Preparatory year and continues to the Sophomore year.

Consequent– ly, a good knowledge of the English language necessitates a good knowledge of German. In the scientific world, the researches and discoveries of German philosophers constitute a great part. This explains why German is one of the requirements for entering a scientific course at the great universities. Moreover, the last hundred years have witnessed a great revival of German writ– ers-in fact, a golden age of German literature. This affords a great incentive to classical students. German is the characteristic of the Philosophical course, em– bracing three years as follows : First Year.-Collar's Shorter Eysenbach is taught the whole year. The student is thoroughly grounded in the principles of the language-the mastery of inflections, the distinctions of auxiliaries and the securing of a vocabulary. Second Year.-The first term is devoted to drill in the trans– lation of Joynes' German Reader. The second and third terms contain two masterpieces of German authors-Schiller's "Tell" and Goethe's "Faust." The reading is interspersed with com– position. Third Year.-The third year contains a descriptive sketch, a novel and a play, containing the best classic efforts of German writers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. FRENCH . French is one of the three electives of the Senior year. It comprises French lessons for two terms and reading in the third. The Text-books are Edgren's French Grammar and a French Reader. French is of considerable importance in scientific and literary lines, and is steadily increasing in demand. . HEBREW. Students intending to enter a theological seminary should be somewhat familiar with Hebrew. This has been provided for
Cedarville College. 25 in the Senior year as an elective. The text-books, Harper's In– troductory Method and J\1anual, and Harper's Elements of He– brew, are studied until the student has attained a good vocabu– lary and pronunciation, and can read readily. Exercises from Hebrew into English, and from English into Hebrew are re– quired daily. MATHEMATICS. The course in 1athematics is systematic anJ thorough. ex– tending through the Sophomore year . In the Preparatory Department the study of Algebra is taken up in the Junior year, and completed in the first term of the Se– nior year. The text u ed is Wentworth's Elemc:its of Algebra. The work of the first two terms extends through Quadratic Equations; the third and fourth terms are given up to a careful tudy of those principles of Algebra which find their application in Higher J\1athematics. During the Senior year, Plane, Solid and Sphl..'rical Geometry are taught. The text used is Wentworth' . Careful attention i given to the demon tration of theorems, in order to train the students in accurate and exact methods of reas•.ming. large number of original exerci e are given in order to cultivate the power of applying principle and method already learned, and to aid the student in the mastery of his own re ource .

26 Cedarville College. In the first part of the Sophomore year, Analvtical Geometry . . is required. This is intended as an introduction to the study of higher Mathematics. It is important to a thorough education; without it a student is ignorant of even the process of thought of the mathematician of his day. A general treatment is given of the Point, the Straight Line, the Circle, the Parabola, the Hyperbola and the Ellipse; also a discussion of the General Equa– tion of the Second Degree, and of a few of the Higher Plane Curves. Loomis' text is used. This is followed by an elementary study of the two branches of Calculus-Differential and Integral. Under the former is given a careful treatment of the differentiation of all functions, expansion of functions in series, maxima and minima of func– tions of a single variable. umerous examples illustrative of these principles are introduced. In the Integral Calculus the fol– lowing subjects are treated: Elementary forms of Integration, Integration of Rational Functions, Integration of Irrational Functions, Integration by series, etc. Loomis' text is used in this also, and numerous examples are introduced illustrating all of these principles. M EN T A'L SCI ENCE. Porter's Elements of I!]telkctual Science is the text-book. It is completed during the fir~t t1 ;vo terms of the Junior Collegiate year. The instruction is by the recitation and lecture system. The topics studied and discus eel are Psychology and its relations to other Sciences, the Soul and its relation to Matter, the Hum~n Intellect under the headings of Presentation and Presentative Knowledge, R~pre entation, Thought and Thought Knowledge, and Intuitions. The study of Psychology "promotes self-know– ledge, and moral culture, disciplines to moral reflection, trains to the knowledge of human nature, is indispensaHe to educators, creates the study of literature" and impel to general scientific research. It is the parent of all sciences. Upon it are based political, social, legal, cesthetic, theological, metaphysical and
Cedarville Colle1;e. 27 physiological studies . Even those branches that deal with the phenomena of the material world exclusively must make their final appeal to psychology before they can be stamped with the seal of truth. During the Spring Term McCosh's "Motive Powers" is the text. ETHIC,:; AND ,CHRISTIAN SCIENCES. The whole Senior year is spe,nt in the study of Moral Science and Apologetics from theoretical and practical standpoints. Es– says are required and class discussion is encouraged. Both ancient and modern systems of philosophy are investigated. The course is pursued by the recitation and lecture method. The student is constantly urged to search present history and appeal to the data of moral conciousness. Alexander's Christian Ethics is the text in Moral Science, Gregory's Apologetics is the text in Evidences of Christianity and Valentine's in Natural Theology. The subjects of study in Apologetics are the Genuineness and Authenticity of the Scrip– tures, The Superiority of Christianity, The Inspiration of the Scriptures, The ature of God and His Existence. Moral Sci– ence presents the following tpemes : The ature of the Moral Agent, The 1 ature of Virtue, Freedom of Will, Conscience, Duties to God and to i\fan. To education is complete without a knowledge of these topics. HISTORY AND MYTHOLOGY. The course in History comprises: General History, ,History of Europe, History of Civilization and History of Philosophy. General History extends through two terms- lyers' being the text-book. The Philosophy of auses and Effects in History is freely discussed in connection with the relation of the facts them elve . '1 he History of Europe is mainly philo ophical, dealing with the gr at social movement that have affected European affairs <luring- the la. t five c nturies.
28 Cedarville College. The History of Civilization deals with the elements of human progress and the principles of national development. Its aim is to teach facts of history in such a way as to benefit those who study it, and lead them to high ideas and practices of citizenship. The History of Philosophy is the study of the development of leading universal thought. By indicating the growth of thought and theory it opens avenues to the widest fields of phil– osophical research. ' Mythology of Greece and Rome is placed in the Senior Preparatory year for the purpose of more profitable reading in Latin and Greek classics. ENGLISH. English studies are given a prominent place in the curriculum. They begin in the Preparatory year, and are carried more or less throughout the whole course of six years' study. In the Junior Preparatory year, Reed and Kellogg's Lessons in Higher Eng– lish is the text-book in grammar. This consists of work in dia– gram, analysis, punctuation, abridging, composition, parsmg, synthesis and rule of syntax. Rhetoric is studied during two terms of the Senior Prepara– tory year. The beginner is introduced to the studv through Kellogg's work. Here he is mad~ perfectly familia r with the fundamental every-day principles of English compos1hon, sen– tence structure, paragraphing, letter writing, formal addresses and prosody. After completing the English Course of the Preparatory De– partment the student is ready for advanced work in Rhetoric and Composition. Accordingly Geming's Practical Elements is taken up at the beginning of the Freshman yecir, and the more difficult and important parts of that book are tudied-such as Style, _Composition, Figures of Speech, Invention and Thought. Thus the student is introduced to a wider view of the subject. He is led to the actual construction of literature, finer principles of literary taste, and the subtler music of rhytm. Style, Diction,
Cedarville College. 29 Figure of Speech, Composition, Invention, Aptitude and H abits, Thought, Objects, Iar ration, Generalization, Argumentation and Persuasion are taken up separately and studied at length. A long with the practical elements, Genung's Hand-book of Rhetor ical Analysis i used. This is designed to alternate from time to time with the Practical Elements. The student is next introduced to the Study of Words by Trench as revised by Suplee. This subject is taken up with dis– cussion on the Origin of Words, Poetry, Morality, Histo ry and Prophecy in Vvords, as well as the Rise, Distinction and Correct Vse of Words. The best writers of English and American L it– erature are read, studied and commented upon during two terms. In this work the student is taught to think for himself, and a taste for reading the best literature is developed. Large portions of each author studied are required to be committed to memory, and essays are written on each book as it is finished. Painter's Literature is used as the guide in study. Jevons-Hill's text in Logic is used, and much stress and time are put upon Syllogism, Fallacies, Induction, Deduction, and Practical Example . POLITICAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCE. In this era of government building, political change and re– publican tendencies, no student can afford to deprive him elf of a thorough education in the History and Tature of our own and other nations, Economics, Law and ociology. In the Freshman year Political Economy is begun and com– pleted. Economic and \Vealth, Labor and ap1tal, Dank and Banking. Free Trade and the Protective Tariff are discussed and the best principles aclvocatecl.

Society in its various forms and relations is fully treated under the following chapters : The Origin and Scope of Sociology, The Natural History of a Society, Social Anatomy. Social Phys– iology and Pathology, Social Psychology. The course inclu:des the study of Home and Foreign History and the study of our Government in particular, as presented by Andrews. Here the student is taught how our nation grew, what it does and how it does it. The distinctive principles of our Republic are laid down, compared and contrasted with the other forms of government, until the study is fully impressed with the value and superiority of our own Government. NATURAL SCIEN.CE. The course in natura~ science begins with Physical Geog– raphy in the Junior Preparatory year, and ends with Biology in the Senior Collegiate year. It covers most of the six years, and is systematically graded. At the beginning of the fall term of the Sophomore year . Remsen's Briefer Course in Chemistry is taken up and completed in two terms. The work includes an extended study of the ele– ments Oxygen, Chlorine, Nitrogen, Sulphur and Carbon as repre– sentatives of the more important families of th(: elements. In addition to these the fundamental principles of Chemical Action are considered. Included in these are the laws of Definite and l\lultiple Proportions, the Atomic Theory, and the Classification of the Elements according to the Periodic Law. Throughout the two terms sufficient time is given to the laboratory work to illustrate the principles which are being studied, and the entire Spring term is devoted to Qualitative Analysis of the more com– mon metals. Williams' Chemical Experiments, General and Ana– lytical, is the guide used.
Cedari•ille Callege. 31 Gage ·s Principles of Phy ics is -studied in lhe Senior year. This i an extensive, thorough and systematic treatise on Physics.
