Y. in May of 1879, the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church decided to establish a Liberal Arts College. By the will olf William Gibson, an elder in the First Presbyterian Church, Ci1tcinnati, a bequest of $25,000 was left in 1886 to found the college at Cedarville, Greene County, Ohio. A charter was obtained for "The Cedarville College in 1887." In May of 1884, the General Synod at Coulterville, Illinois, resolved to open Cedarville Col– lege cm September 19, 1894. In 1928 the General Synod at Coulterville, Illinois by unanimous vote gave all control, owner– ship, title and vested property rights of Cedarville Colle,ge to the Board of Trustees of Cedarville College and their successors forever.

Cedarville College depends upon . friends and churches to contribute this amount. We appeal to every reader of this paragraph to give to Cedarville College what you can. NEEDS OF CEDARVILLE COLLEGE Cedarville College will need over and above its income for current expenses in 1934-1935: 1. Additional endowment to meet the requirements of the various collegiate and university associations. 2. A dormitory for girls. 3.. A combined administration building and chapel. Monies and gifts to a Christian College like Cedarville are an eternal investment for incalculable good. · 4. $5,-000 for a Maintenance and Expansion Fund to enable it t o meet current expenses and to secure additional endowment. EXPENSES TO A STUDENT Expenses at Cedarville are probably as low as can be found anywhere in the United States and are much lower than in many other places. Expenses for clothing, laundry and sundries vary greatly with the individual, who can, therefore, better estimate them for himself. College fees, boarding, room rent and cost
GENERAL INFORMATION 17 of text-books vary with the locality. Consequently, the following estimates are based upon these items. In the years in which science courses are taken, from twelve to twenty dollars must be added for laboratory fees, and a deposit of five dollars for breakage in courses in chemistry.

Supervision of Women.-All non-resident girls are under the direct supervision of the Dean of Women and are re– sponsible to her for their conduct.

Absences on the first and last regular recitation days of - each semester, on the recitation days immediately preceding and following all holidays and vacations and on the day of Prayer for Colleges shall count double. 5. For each eighteen absences over the number allowed one credit shall be deducted from the total number obtained during the ~emester, and for any smaller number a proportionate de– duction shall be made. The several amounts of credits deducted shall be added together and if the total amount comes to one or
GENERAL INFORMATION 19 more whole credits, they shall be deducted from the number of credits obtained in one of the studies pursued during that semes– ter. The registrar shall determine as to the study from which the credit shall be deducted but the student affected may request that the credit be deducted from some other study taken in the same semester. If the amount deducted does not come to a whole credit, the fraction shall be canied over until it amounts to a whole credit. All other fractions of deducted credits shall in like manner be carried over from semester to semester till they come to a whole credit. 6. Three tardy marks shall be counted as one absence. 7. At each faculty meeting each instructor shall report the uumber of times he was tardy or absent, or dismissed classes before the time for dismissal. 8.

Absences from Chapel shall count the same as absences from classes. Professors appointed by the President of the Col– lege will keep a record of chapel absences. Discontinuance of Studies.-1. No students shall be allowed to discontinue any study for which he has registered without permission of the President. In case a student dis– continues a study without such permission he shall be given a grade of F in that study. 2. Permission to discontinue a study shall not be given merely because the student fears that he will fail or not make a good record in that study. 3. No permission to discontinue a study shall be given dur~ ing the last four weeks of a semester unless for very serious reason. 4.

20 GENER L INFORM TION RA ING AND REDITS In all courses students ar graded according to their scholarship by th use of the follo~ing symbols: A, _denoting cell nt.; B, denoting go?d; , denotmg fair; D, den?tmg pass– ing; and F, denoting failed. T~e comparative ment of tests, xaminations 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. 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 many 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. The 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 by reason of grade of passing fall behind in the required number of points, are ineligible for graduation. By the use of points a student may 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 g:z:aduated magna cum laude, "with great praise"; and one who wms 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 ~embers ar~ elected by the faculty on the basis of excellence m scholarship. (1) A Junior or Senior who for two semesters ,
GENERAL INFORMATION 21 not necessarily consecutive, has acquired a grade of A in all of his studies may be elected to membership in this society. (2) or one who in four semesters has obtained not more than one grade of B for each semester, all other grades being A, may be elected to membership. (3) A student may be elected to membership upon graduation after a full four-year's course, provided he has no grade below B and three-fourths of his grades are A. (4) Students who have taken part of their col– lege course in other institutions are eligible to the society by either of the first two standards given above, but not by the third. Upon election to this society the student is presented with a gold pin in the design of a crown similar to that in the seal of the College, and bearing the letters C. C. C. C.
