GENERAL INFORMATION GENERAL INFORMATION CEDARVILLE COLLEGE 11 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, n 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 1894, the General Synod at Coulterville, Illinois, resolved to open Cedarville Col– lege on September 19, 1894. Reverend David McKinney, pastor of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church, Cincinnati, was chosen the first president. He continued in that capacity until 1915. He then resigned and was succeeded by W. R. McChesney, D.D. In 1928 the General Synod at Coulterville, Illinois, by unanimous vote gave all control, ownership, title and vested property rights of Cedarville College to the Board of Trustees of Cedarville College and their successors forever. Since 1928, the Board of Trustees, composed for the most part of Presby– terians, have had full control and management of Cedarville College. The Board of Trustees in accepting this responsibility obli– gated and pledged themselves and their successors to continue and maintain the principles and purposes for which Cedarville College was founded. In June, 1939, President McChesney asked to be relieved of his administrative duties by or before July, 1941. In accord– ance with this wish, the Board secured the Rev. Walter S. Kilpatrick, of the class of '34, as president-elect. His inaugura– tion as third president of Cedarville College will take place early in the school year of 1940-1941. In 1913 the Theological Seminary of the Reformed Presby– terian Church was moved to Cedarville, where for over a quarter of a century it has operated in close cooperation with the college. During the forty-five years of its history Cedarville College has drawn to its halls students from all parts of the United States and other parts of the world. Its alumni are located throughout our country and in foreign lands. Location.-Cedarville College is located in Cedarville, Greene County, Ohio. The village of Cedarville is on the Pitts– burgh, Columbus, Cincinnati, and St. Louis Railroad, one of the
12 GENERAL INFORMATION main lines of the Pennsylvania system. Good bus lines also run from Columbus, .Dayton, Springfield, Cincinnati, Cleveland and all intermediate points to Cedarville. Cedarville is situated in the northern part of the far-famed Miami valley. It is the birthplace of the late ambassador Whitelaw Reid. It is noted for its fine public schools, good churches, sturdy citizens, and hospitable homes. It is a clean, safe, and healthful place to get a college education. Purpose-Cedarville College is committed to a three-fold purpose. We believe the college course should be well-balanced and accurate in content, presenting the student with a full pic– ture of life in the world in which he lives. We keep expenses at the lowest possible level and help students find ways of meeting even these low costs when they cannot do so themselves. We live to serve Christ and His Kingdom; for training of the head and the hands is worse than useless if the heart is not instruct– ed by the Great Teacher. The world does not particularly need well~trained non-Christians, and Cedarville College prefers to meet the greater need of wisely directed Christian service. Reco~nition.-By the charter, issued under the laws of the State of Ohio, January 21, 1887, Cedarville College is recog– nized as a degree-granting institution. On April 16, 1915, the State Department of Education recognized Cedarville College as an institution for the professional training of teachers. Students whose work can merit the recommendation of' the faculty can expect to enter other colleges, undergraduate or post-graduate, without loss of standing. Commendation.-The Presbyteries of Cincinnati, Day– ton, Columbus, and Portsmouth, of the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A., have commended Cedarville College to the consid– eration of parents who have children to educate and also to the generosity and liberality of the constituents of these respective presbyteries.

A fee of one dollar per day up to five dollars may be assessed students who fail to regist er on the days appointed for registration. RULES AND REGULATIONS Supervision of Women.----All girls who room in Ced– arville during the school year must live in approved houses. The Dean of Women selects only houses which are comfortable, healthful, and not too crowded. House-mothers are expected to cooperate with the Dean in seeing that rules are observed.
20 GENERAL INFORMATION On Friday and Saturday nights, girl students may be out until ten-thirty; on other nights, except Sunday, they may be out with the written permission of the Dean. Freshmen may have not more than one midnight permit a week; permits for upper classmen will be granted at the discretion of the Dean. Regulations in regard to the entertainment of guests are made by the girls' hostesses and not by the college; in most houses the girls' friends are welcome. Attendance.-1. All students are required to be punctual and regular in their attendance at chapel, recitations, and all other exercises of the College. 2. No excuses are granted for absences from any recitations, tests, or examinations. All students will be held responsible for any work missed on account of absence. 3. Students shall not be penalized by deduction of credit under Se('tion 5 for absences due to sickness or other absolutely unavoidable reasons until after the number of absences ex– ceeds by one the number of hours credit given in the course. 4. 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 semester, 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 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 carried 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 number 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 student 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.
GENERAL INFORMATION 21 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. Any professor or instructor may dismiss a student from class for unsatisfactory work or misdemeanor. 5. All students who are dismissed or discontinued from classes must be reported immediately by the professor in charge in writing to the Registrar. 6. All changes in classes in any way whatever must be reported to the Registrar immediately. If the student is not properly registered in the college office in each study he is carrying, he will receive no credit in such study or studies. GRADING AND CREDITS 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, and 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 78-84; 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 con~idered 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.
22 GENERAL INFORMATION 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 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 in scholarship. (1) A Junior or Senior who for two semesters, not necessarily consecutive, has acquired a grade of A in all of his studies may be elected to membership in this society. (2) One who in four semesters has obtained not more than one grade of B in 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-years' course, provided he has no grade below B and three-fourths of his grades are A. (4) Students who have taken part of their college 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.
