10 GENERAL INFORMATION GENERAL INFORMATION CEDARVILLE COLLEGE History.-At Duanesburgh, N. Y. in May of 1879, the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church decided to establish a Liberal Arts College. By the will of William Gibson, an elder in the First Presbyterian Church, Cincinnati, a bequest of $25,000 was left in 1886 to found the college at Cedarville, Greene County, Ohio.

GENERAL INFORMATION GRADING AND CREDITS In all courses stud,ents are graded according to their scbolarship by the use of the followin.g symbols: A, denoting ~xcellent; 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 indi:cated 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 semestet 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 grad~ 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 o:f 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 num~er 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 graduation 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
