10 :b ER L !NP RM TI N G~ AL I F RM TI N E ARVILLE LLEGE History.-ln 1879 the cneral Synod of the Reformed Pres• byterian hurch in North America passed unanimously a motion to establish a Liberal Arts College. The charter for edar ·illc College was obtained in 1837. edarville ollege was opened for instruction, September 19, 1894. In 1928 the General Synod by a unanimous motion gave all control, ownership, title, and vested rights of Cedarville College to the Board of Trustees of Cedarville College and their suc– cessors forever. The Board of Trustees in accepting this responsibility obligated themselves and their successors to continue and main– tain the purposes and principles in Cedarville College for which the college was founded. The Board of Trustees is composed of resbyterians. Thirty-Six Years \Vork.-There are four hundred and seventy graduates, four hundred fifty-five of whom are living. They are distributed as follows: To the Church-Fifty-seven ministers, fourteen mis– sionaries, one hundred and eighteen Christian– Workers. To Schools-Two hundred and twenty-four teachers in fourteen states. One hundred alumnj in Ohio schools. To State-Twelve graduates and students have held positions of trust in the state. Twenty-five hundred students have come under the Christian influence of Cedarville College in thirty-seven years of service. Everyone who has shared in this work has been blessed. Purpose.-The purpose in foundi ng and maintaining Cedarville College is to give a sound Christian liberal education in humanitarian and scientific matters to both sexes, at a reason– able cost and with the supreme ideal of guiding In to the truth. Cedarville College stands for the cardinal principles of Christianity. The Declaration of Cedarville College.- Cedarville College was established in faith and prayer. It stands today, as it always has stood, for genuine Christianity founded upon and agreeable to the Word of God. It was chartered by he lineal descendants of the Covenanters of Scotland. It is owned and controlled by a Board of Trustees who are Presbyterians. 1. Cedarville College teaches the e.·istence of the one living and true God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
GENERAL INFORMATION 11 2. That the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God and are the only infallible rule of faith and revelation of eternal salvation. 3. That Jesus Christ is the eternally begotten Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary, and is God-man, able to save unto the uttermost all who believe in him. 4. That man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and brought upon himself physical and spiritual death, that he is born in sin and at the age of accountability becomes responsi– ble for sin in thought, word, and deed. 5. That Christ atoned for man's sins by his death, and man is justified only upon condition of acceptance of the blood atone– ment. 6. That all who accept Christ as their personal Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and persevere in righteousness through the sanctifying power of the Holy Ghost until the end of their earthly life, when at the appearance of Christ they be– come like him in righteousness. 7. That Christ died, was buried, rose in his crucified body, ascended into Heaven, where he is our intercessor and priest; and that he will come in person in the last times and raise both the just and unjust from the dead and distribute their eternal rewards according to their works. Trusting in God and the co-operation of true Christians in all churches who subscribe to the above tenets of faith, Cedar– ville College appeals for the support and patronage of all who believe in the basic truths of the Bible and the training of men and women for loyal, definite service for Christ's Crown and Kingdom. Ownersh·p and Control.-At the meeting of the Gen– eral Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in Coulterville, Illinois, in May 1928, the full ownership and control of Cedar– ville College was given into the hands of its Board of Trustees, a self-perpetuating corporation. This Board of Trustees is composed for the most part of Presbyterians, U. S. A. The Board is solemnly pledged to perpetuate and maintain the distinctive doctrines and teachings of Evangelical Christianity.· Cedarville College stands, as it always has stood, and will continue to stand, for the cardinal principles of Christianity. Commendation.-The Presbyteries of Dayton, Columbus, Chillicothe and Portsmouth, of the Presbyterian Church, U. S.

GENERAL INFORMATION GRADING AND CREDITS 21 In all courses students are graded according to their scholarship by the use of the following symbols: A, denoting excellent; B, denoting good; C, denoting fair; D, denoting pass– ing; and F, denoting failed. The comparative merit of tests, examinations and all other exercises, as well as the final stand– ing of the student in any course, are indicated by the use of the same symbols. A equals 93-100; B equals 85-92; C equals 7884; D equals 70-77. Semester-Hour.-In all of the courses, credit is counted by the "semester-hour." A "credit" or "semester-hour" is one :recitation, lecture, or laboratory period a week for one semester. A student completing the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one semester receives credit for fifteen semester– hours, and if such work is continued for a full year and satisfactorily completed, he receives credit for thirty semester– hours which is considered full work for one year. A semester is eighteen weeks or one-half of the academic or collegiate year of nine months. Required Merit Points.-In every course in the collegiate department as nrnny merit points are required for graduation as credits or semester-hours. For grade excellent, three points for each credit are awarded; for grade good, two points; for grade fair, one point; for grade passing, no points. rl he maximum number of points that can be secured by a student graduating in a course which required, for example, 120 credits is 360; the minimum 120. It is evident that an aver– age grade of fair is necessary for graduation. Students who b-y reason of grade of passing fall behind in the required number of points, are ineligible for graduation. By the use of points a student my readily determine the quality of progress he is making in his course. Commencement Honors.-A student who wins eighty per cent of the maximum number of merit points obtainable in his course will be graduated cum laude, "with praise". one who wins ninety per cent of the maximum number obtainable in his course, will be graduated magna cum laude, "with great praise"; and one who wins the maximum number obtainable in his course, will be graduated summa cum laude, "with the highest - praise." The maximum number of merit points obtainable in any course is three times the number of credits or semester– hours required for gradation in that course. Honor Society.-In 1920 an honor society, called the Cedarville College Crown Club, was established, to which members are elected by the faculty on the basis of excellence in scholarship. (1) A Junior or Senior who for two semesters, not necessarily consecutive, has ac<iuired a grade of A in all of his studies tnay be elected to membership in this society. (2) or
