GENERAL INFORMATION. HISTORY. The Cedarville College was chartered with full power by the State of Ohio in January, 1887. On Wednesday, September r9, 1894, the College opened for instruction in the rna11sio11 formerly owned by Rev. Hugh Mcl\1illan, D. D., where over a third of a century ago he conducted an academy, from which were graduated many noted personages. The accommodations not being sufficient for the needs of the growing institution, in the second year the present building was erected and opened on the site purchased several years before. Both the building and the campus are the gifts of generous friends. Though young, the college has already exerted a lasting and wide– felt influence. rts students and graduates take prominent places in seminaries, universities and other advanced schools of training. Many of them are worthily filling positions of power and influence in America and foreign lands. The college includes five departments: the Preparatory, the Classical, the Philosophical, the Musical, and the Elocution. In these are students from various parts of the Cnited States preparing for all professions and pursuits of life. ENDOWMENT AND INCOME. GIBSON FUND . The Cedarville College had its practical ongm through the lib– erality of William Gibson, Esq., of Cincinnati, who bequeathed $25,000 for the endowment fund of a college to be erected at Cedar– ville, Ohio, in memory of his father, Peter Gibson, for many years a prominent member and ruling elder in the First Reformed Presby– terian congregation of Cincinnati. COOPER FUND . By the will of the late Robert M. Cooper, a ruling elder rn the Cedarville Reformed P resbyterian congregation, the College, 111 the 7
8 CEDARVII,I,B COI,T.EGE. . Fall of 1903, came into possession of two-thirds of his farm, valued at $6,000. Though dead these men yet speak. Their memory 1s precious. HARPER FUND . Mr. G. \V. Harper and wife, of Cedarville, generously gave $5,000 for the founding and maintfnance of a chair in Finance, Banking, Transportation and Economics , provided the friends of the College raise an additional $5,000. This fund was raised, and instruction began in September, I907. J AMES LYONS FUND . The College is gratefully indebted to Mr. John R. Lyons, of Marissa, Illinois, who gave $500 to be funded as a memorial to his son, James Lyons, who gave his life as a sacrifice to bis country during the Civil \Var. I N COME. The income of the College consists of the interest from its en– dowment, voluntary subscriptions and offerings from friends, collec– tions from the different congregations under the care of the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and the tuition of the students. The college needs and should have now $75,000 to do what it wants to do for its patrons The college is pledged to a Christian education along all lines. Reader, you may not be able to give all or even a considerable amount of the $75,000 but y(•U can give some– thing and you cannot bestow your gifts where they will be more heartily appreciated, better used, and result in such permanent good to humanity. Consider this a call from the Lonl for the bestowment of your goods. LOCATION· OF CEDARVILLE. Cedan-ille, Ohio, the seat of Cedarville College, is located on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railway (the Little Miami dh·ision). It has a direct communication by telegraph, telephone and railroad with Xenia, eight miles southwest, Springfield, tweJ-ve miles north; London, twenty-two miles northeast; Columbus, forty-seven miles northeast and Cincinnati, seventy-three miles southwest, It is in the northern p8rt of the Miami \'alley, and is one of the most beautiful and healthful locations in Ohio. The country lying about Cedarville is level, fertile, improved and in every way suited for a pleasant residence . Any who have children to educate, and wish to be with them during their college life, can find no finer region and
CEl>AR\'lT,I,E cor,I,EGE. 9 no better society than in this co1111mmity, in andition to many other ach·antages generally sought for by the enterprising and industrious. BUILDINGS. COLLEGE HALL. The erection of the new College building was begun in the Spring of 1895, and completecl late in the Autumn of the same year. The corner-stone was laid with impressive services June 25, 1895, and the dedication took place during the meeting of the General Synod in May, 1896. 1'he building stands in a campus of nine acres, con– taining ahout three hundred trees and all beautifully located on the main street, north encl of Cedarville. It is a handsome edifice of pressed brick and cut stone. The basement contains chemical and toilet rooms, coal cellars and heating apparatus. On the first floor are the chapel, the president's office, class rooms for Music, German, English and Chemistry. and the main and side entrance corridors. On the second floor are the library, waiting rooms, the Greek and Latin, the :Mathematical, general recitation rooms, besides the cor– ridor. Two large society halls occupy the entire third floor. Two wide and gently ascending stairways, one on each side of the build– ing, lead from the basement to the third story. The building is lighted ·with electricity, and heated by three furnaces. There are en– trances from each of the four sides. Standing in the center 0f the campus on the highest !-ite in Cedarville, the building presents an attractive and imposing appearance. A L FORD M EMOR I A L. During the holiday season of 1902, l\Ir. \\'. J. Alford presented to the College the church building and beautiful grounds formerly the property of the Reformed Presbyterian congregation (General Synod). This building was gh·en by the donor as a gymnasium and for a memorial of his parents, Rev. John Alford and Mrs. Mary B. Alford, of Beaver Falls, Pa. The hall has been named the "Alford Memorial." It is seventy feet long and fifty feet wide, and furnishes an excellent place for a gynasium. \Ve 8re under lasting gratitude to Mr. \V. J. Alford for his timely, needed and historic gift. LIBRARY AND MUSEUM. The Faculty and students have organized a reading circle, which receives regularly the leading magazines and periodicals. The library i.,; well supplied vvith the latest works in History, Biography, Science,
TO CED.-\RVILI.I<: COLLEGE. Philosophy, Lc1.w, Letters, Fiction, Theology and Reference, includ– ing two of the latest and fullest Encyclopedias. It is free to all students. Students also may have use of the t°'vn library by the payment of a small fee. A 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 having 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 com– p!etion of our collection. THE CARNEGIE LIBRARY. In Dt.cember, 1905, Mr. Carnegie generously offered to donate funds sufficient to erect a I,ibrary Building for Cedarville College if certain conditions, named by him, were complied with. These con– ditions have already been fully met and negotiations are now being conducted for the erection of this building. It is expected that it will be completed during the year 1907. Arrangements have been made by which the town Library and the College Library will be combined with sufficient means not only to maintain both, but to inc. crease largely the supply of books and current literature. Reading rooms will be provided along with other comforts and conveniences of a modern library for the free use of the students of the College. SOCIAL AND R.ELIGIOUS LIFE. LECTURES AN D EN TERTAINMENTS . 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 addition to the College Lecture Course, other societies of Cedarville usually bring first-class talent. The students, therefore, have opportunity to hear the bebt public speakers and entertainers of the day. ATHLETICS . Athletic exercises are encouraged by the Faculty and the Board of Trustees. They are under the personal supervision of the Presi– dent of the College. On the College campus there are a first-class tennis court, base ball and foot ba11 grounds. Several basket ball clubs representing both sexes are usually organized from year to year.
CEDARVIT,r,E cor,r,EGE. I r They conduct their games in the Alford Memorial. An Athletic Association, formed by the students, helps t.o stimulate field sports. The College authorities will promptly check any tendency to brutality or excess in athletic contests. This can be clone the n10re easily since the students recognize that the faculty sympathizes and is ready to co-operate with them in promoting legitimate and healthful sport. Students deficient in their studies will not be permitted to participate in inter-collegiate games. LITERARY SOCIETIES . The Philaddphian Society was organized in the Fall of 1894, and the Philosophic during the Fall of 1895. Both societies have been making successful progress. They occupy two large, well furnished halls in the third story of the new College building. Their regular contests take place at the close of each term. These are the charac– teristic entertainments of the college. They always give vigor and inspiration to the literary students. One-half of a true education consists in 1-iterary training. These_ societies are under the control of the students. Thus having the management in their own hands, they will tend to develop originality and independence of thought and action. During the past few years the societies have beautified their halls at the expense of several h undrecl dollars. THE GAVEL CLUB . The Gavel Club ·was organized in i\ovember, 1905, with the avowed object of furnishing training to its members in "the technic of conducting public meetings." Th is was in answer to a long-felt want on the part of the College men, \vho upon graduation find themseh-es in positions requiring a thorough knowledge of parlia– mentary law. The work of the club since organization has been most instructive. Questions of public policy are cliscussed, furnish– ing fine training in extemporaneous speaking as well as in the ,·arious questions of parliamentary law. The cluh has prospered since its start and much good is looked for in the future. THE GAVELYTE. No one thing contributes more to the broadening of a student's life than a live college paper. It brings him into contact with other colleges and it supplies him with a medium for the expression of his opinions and furnishes him valuable training. Such ·we belie,·e is "THE GAVEI__,VTE," the first number of which appeared in January, 1906. It has increased in size and interest with each number and
12 CEDARVI LLE COI~LEGE. has already become an important agent to the student body. Edited and managed as it is by the s t udents themsekes, it is typically rep– resentative of their thought and moti\·e. RELIGIOUS ADVANTAGES . There are four flourishing churches in town: Methodist Episco– pal, ·cnited Presbyterian, Reformed Presbyterian (Synod), Reformed Presbyterian ( General Synod). Each of these churches maintains a young people's prayer meeting once a week . Ninety-fi\·e per cent. of the students in attendance t h is year are professed Christians. All students are required to attend the church designated by their parents, who are requested to send their written ·wishes as to what church their children shall attend. "\Ve welcome students of all Christian denominations. The enticements to sin, so plentiful in large cities and over-crowded colleges , are not found here. THE STUDENTS' MINISTERIAL CLUB. During the Fall term of 1906, the Students' Ministerial Club was organized. It is composed of students ,vho have the gospel ministry 111 new. Its purpose is mutual helpfulness by word and example, to interest others in taking up the ministry, to do personal work both in the College and town, and to organize like clubs in other colleges. It meets in a business and de,·otional capacity once each month. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. The Y. l\I. C. A. of Cedarville Col'lege, ·was organized l\Iarch 12 , 1907 . Like all similar societies it extends the helping hand physi– cally , intellectually, morally and spiritually to all the young men, ther eby aiming to develop the whole man in the truest ancl best sense . Its devotional and business meetings are held twice a month. SPECIAL ADVANTAGES . Ceclan·ille College makes no pretension to do the work of a uni– ,·ersity. It is content to take its place with the smaller colleges of the land. But it does promise its patrons to do well and thoroughly vdrntever it claims to do. A college course is not in itself an educa– tion. It only opens the doors of a liberal education for the stu<lent. It is a beginning, not an end. This beginning v,e claim to be able to furnish. A uni\·ersily may have hundreds of teachers in its faculty , thousands of volumes in its library, and the most costly apparatus a nd extensive laboratories. But the students will come in contact with only a fe\,· of the professors, read a fe,,· of the books, use a few
CHD.-\ RVILT,1'; COT,I, HGH. o f the appliances . All of these he may find here. The small colleg es hm·e done ancl arc doing a great work. They liave educated m e n eminent in Theology, Law, Medicine; Presidents, Judges , Senators. Nor are these cases exceptional. It will be found that a much larger per cent. of the students of smaller colleges are successful in life than of the larger colleges. It is no uncommon thing to find fifty per cent. of the graduates of a small college entering the ministry . 'fhe reason is apparent-a student who hahitually neglects or shirks his v.;ork can not get through , and a student who is lidng a fast and dcious life can not stay in one of these small colleges . Agnostics, infidels, or men who indulge in or tolerate drinking are not found as teachers. The professors are generally consecrated Christians . All this is true of Cedarville College . The professors are energetic , capable and sympathetic . They are brought into personal contact with the student daily in the class and out of the class. The classes are small, so that students are obliged to recite se,·eral times during each hour. No student can slight work for one day v,·ithout the fact being apparent to the professors. Special Rules and Statements. ,, r. ,_fhe President of the College and the Professors constitute the Faculty. 2.
