CEDARVILLE COLLEGE BULLETIN Published by Cedarville College Admitted as second-class matter, April 2, 1915, at the Post Office at Cedarville, Ohio. Under Act of Congress of August 24, 1912. Volume XXVII Cedarville, Ohio, April, 1942 No.1 Our Purpose Cedarville College is committed to a three-fold purpose . We be– lieve the college course should be well-balanced and accurate in con– tent, presenting the student with a full picture 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 instructed by the Great Teacher. Self-Help Opportunities Expenses at Cedarville are unusually low. / Office work, janitor services are performed by students. Limited loan and scholarship funds are available to recommended students. Many part-time working opportunities are available in the com– munity. The College is entering upon a greatly expanded program of student self-help, to be centered around a college-operated farm. Qualified young people of good character, willing to "earn as they lear n," are urged to write or visit Cedarville College for further information.

8 GENERAL INFORMATION GENERAL INFORMATION Location.-Cedarville College, Cedarville, Greene County, Ohio, is situated in the Miami River Valley, noted for its natural beauty. The community is outstanding for its fine public schools, good churches, sturdy citizens, and hospitable homes. The friendship and quiet of a small town and the convenience of access to near-by cities combine to make Cedarville an ideal location for a small Christian college. The Pennsylvania Railroad and two bus lines provide con– nections for all points. Xenia, Springfield, Dayton, Columbus, and Cincinnati are near-by cities. History.-When the General Synod of the Refonned Presbyterian Church decided to establish a Liberal Arts College at Cedarville, their dream was made possible through the generosity of William Gibson. Mr. Gibson, an elder in the First Presbyterian Church of Cincinnati, left a bequest of $25,000 for the establishment of a college. Although the state of Ohio granted a charter to "The Cedarville College" in 1887, the doors were not opened until September 19, 1894, a date now noted annually as "Founders' Day." Dr. David McKinney, pastor of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church, Cincinnati, became Cedarville's first president, and served in that capacity . until 1915. Upon his resignation, Dr. W. R. Mc– Chesney, who has served as a professor at Cedarville since its found– ing, was named president. In 1928 the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church unanimously voted to transfer "all control, ownership, title and vested property rights of Cedarville College" to the Board of Trustees of the College, "and their successors forever." Since 1928, the Board, a majority of whom must be members of the Presbyterian Church, have operated Cedarville. · In June, 1939, President McChesney asked that his resignation be accepted as soon as a successor might be found. The Reverend Walter S. Kilpatrick, of the class of 1934, was inaugurated as third president of the college in the fall of 1940. Dr. McChesney was named president-emeritus, and continues on the faculty of the institution which he has served since its founding nearly half a century ago. In 1913 the Theological Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Church was moved to Cedarville where for over a quarter of a century it has operated in close cooperation with the College. During its forty-seven years, Cedarville has drawn to its halls students from all parts of the United States and elsewhere in the world, and its influence has spread, through its graduates, throughout the world, especially in the fields of education and religion. Cedarville has always operated on the missionary motive, that
GENERAL INFORMATION 9 its greatest service, to Christian society is in the training of young people through the development of their abilities and characters. In an effort to make such training available to an increased number of young men and women who must earn a part of their own college expenses, the Board of Trustees has carefully studied the develop– ment of a student self-help program, and has authorized a campaign for one hundred thousand dollars to initiate such a program. Through the acquisition of a farm to be operated by college students, and other student industries, it is believed that the low costs and fine training possible only at a small Christian institution can be made available to many more students. It is hoped that this program will be well under way by the Fiftieth Anniversary of Cedarville College, to be observed October 19, 1944. Recognition.-By its charter, issued under the laws of the State of Ohio, January 21, 1887, Cedarville College is recognized 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. Cedarville College is a member of the National Conference of Church-Related Colleges, an association numbering several hundred of the leading Christian institutions of higher education in the country. Cornrnendation.-The Presbyteries of Cincinnati, Dayton, Colum– bus, and Portsmouth, of the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A., have commended Cedarville College to the consideration of parents who have children to educate and also to the generosity and liberality of the constituents of these respective presbyteries. Grounds and Buildings Carnpus.-There are four plots to the campus of Cedarville Col– lege. The campus is beautifully shaded and attractive. It contains, besides the college buildings, a football field, a baseball diamond, and tennis courts. The trees of the campus were a gift from the late Whitelaw Reid. One part of the campus was a gift from W. J. Al– ford, Sr. College Hall.-College Hall is the oldest building, erected in 1895. It contains recitation rooms, the chapel, the offices, and other rooms for college purposes. Alford Memorial Gyrnnasiurn.-Alford Memorial Gymnasium was given to Cedarville College by W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mother, Dr. and Mrs. John Alford, formerly of Beaver Falls, Pa. It has a basketball floor, a kitchen fully furnished, a stage, dress– ing rooms, and a banquet hall.
10 GENERAL INFORMATION Carnegie Library.-Carnegie Library was the gift of the late Andrew Carnegie. Recently an arrangement has been made whereby the college benefits from the full facilities of the Greene County Public Library system as well. By this means, in addition to a number of specialized departments built up over a period of years by the college, students have access to about one hundred fifty periodicals and to more than sixty thousand volumes. The library also contains rooms for the dining club, the Department of Music, and a reception and literary hall. Science Hall.-Science Hall was erected in 1922. It has the lab– oratories for Botany, Chemistry, Physics, and Zoology, and houses the Department of Education also. Harriman Hall.-A large home next to the Carnegie Library was purchased in the summer of 1940, and has been remodelled as a resi– dence hall for girls. Named in honor of Dr. W. P. Harriman, late trustee of the College, Harriman Hall provides a center for girls' social life on the campus as well as serving as a much-needed dorm– itory. Several special gifts from generous friends assisted in the purchase and remodelling of the building. Music Studio.-The music studio is on the main floor of the Car– negie Library for students in all subjects of music except pipe organ. The three churches of Cedarville offer their pipe organs to students in music for practice and lessons. Boarding Clab.-The students have their boarding club in the Carnegie Library building. Good boarding is secured at a very reason– able cost. The club is a cooperative organization, operated entirely by the student members with faculty advisors. Student Life at Cedarville Student Government.-The student body has its own organization and officers. All student activities are carried on under student leader– ship and planning, with the supervision of faculty members selected by the various organizations. Musical Organizations.-Under the supervision of the Director of Music, students participate in their choice of musical activities. Glee clubs, choruses, quartettes, and an orchestra are organized each year depending on the desires of the student body. Programs of local and 'general interest are prepared, and the various musical organiza– tions are much in demand at schools, churches, and for radio pre– sentations. Debates.-Cedarville College engages in debates with other col– leges. Both men and women engage in these inter-collegiate debates from year to year.
GENERAL INFORMATION 11 Dramatic Club.-Cedarville College has a Dramatic Club open to all men and women of the college, offering training in preparing and presenting plays. Social Organizations.-Local sororities and a fraternity, with faculty sponsors, contribute to the social interests of the student body. The local churches and other organizations encourage the participa– tion of the college community in their social activities as well as their religious purposes. Such traditional events as class parties, the Junior-Senior Banquet, and the usual college social calendar of parties, informal dances, and other activities provide a great variety of interests with which to supplement the college program. Publications.-A yearbook, the "Cedrus," cr~stallizes each year's activities into permanent literary and pictorial form. A weekly news– paper, "The Whispering Cedars," is edited and published by the students. The Cedarville College Bulletin, issued periodically from the College office, carries news of Cedarville's work to a large mailing list of alumni and friends throughout the country. Special Occasions Homecoming.-Cedarville College Homecoming is observed an– nually on a Saturday evening early in February. Events of Homecom– ing include a dinner served by the Ladies' Advisor y Board, a short program provided by students and alumni, and a basketball game with some traditional rival. An increasing number of students, faculty members, alumni, and friends of the college gather for this day each year. Alumni Meeting.-On the evening before Commencement Day, it is the custom for the alumni to hold their annual business meeting and dinner in the ~!ford Memorial Gymnasium. Cedar Day.-The popular Spring festival at Cedarville College is Cedar Day, observed annually on Wednesday of Commencement Week. Class stunts and songs, folk dances, and a May Pole dance constitute part of the program. The Cedar Day Queen and Orator , selected from the Senior Class, share the honors of the day . An afternoon baseball game is another feature. Commencement.-Commencement exercises are held early in June, at the Cedarville Opera House or one of the churches. This is, f course, made the crowning day of the school year, with the awarding of degrees and academic honors for the year. A prominent guest, often an alumnus of the college, is the Commencement speaker. It should be mentioned that war conditions may make necessary temporary changes in these and other traditional Cedarville College acti ities.
12 GE ERAL INFORMATION Health and Phy ical Education Athletic Facilities.-The ollege athletic equipment consists of a varsity baseball diamond; a practice baseball diamond; a soft-ball diamond; a combination soccer and football field; two tennis courts; a five-acre field on which is to be built a quarter-mile track; the Alford Memorial Gymnasium which houses the varsity basketball court, badminton courts, volleyball court, table-tennis outfits, dressing rooms and various small-game equipment. Required Physical Education.-The College has a Department of Health and Physical Education consisting of the Director, Women's Director and several of the varsity coaches under whose guidance the activity program falls. Two years of work in physical education is required for all students unless excused on grounds of health. Intercollegiate Athletics.-Cedarville has a varsity schedule for basketball, baseball, track and field , and tennis. There are also fresh– men and junior varsity basketball teams. Athletic competition is carried on with several of the Ohio Conference, Indiana-Ohio Con– ference and Kentucky Conference members, along with non-conference members. Cedarville is a member of the Indiana-Ohio Conference. Intra-Mural Athletics.-The Intra-Mural Board of Athletic Con– trol, consisting of members of the four undergraduate classes and the Women's Director, set up the various sports to be staged each year between the classes. In operation at the present are: six-man touch football, soccer, speedball, tennis for men and women, soccer– baseball, soccer-bowling, badminton, table tennis, softball, baseball, track and field, horse shoes and volleyball. Health Service.-All students taking Health and Physical Edu– cation courses of any nature are required to take a physical examina– tion given by the College Physician. The Department of Health and Physical Education cooperates with the College Physician and physical activity is liimted according to the outcome of the examination. A fee of one dollar is charged to cover the cost of the examination. Religious Life Chapel.-Students and faculty participate in religious exercises in the College chapel regularly. It is the effort of those in charge to keep these services closely related to student life, and thus a real center for the college day. The chapel. committee includes both faculty and student members. Churches.-There are three churches in Cedarville: Methodist, United Presbyterian, and Presbyterian. Students remaining in town weekends are expected to attend the church of their preference. These churches and others in the community welcome college students to all of their Sunday and week day activities. A Roman Catholic Church is located in Xenia.
GENERAL INFORMATION 13 Young Men's Christian Association.-The Young Men's Christian Association of Cedarville College was organized March 12, 1907. It r epresents on the local campus the four-fold program of this ihter– national organization-physical, mental, social, and spiritual. Young Women's Christian Association.-The Young Women's Christian Association of Cedarville College was organized in 1909. It maintains all of the characteristic activities which have made this or ganization such a power for good among the college girls of America. Day of Prayer.-The second Friday in February is observed as the Day of Prayer for colleges and schools. Gospel Tearn.-The Gospel Team is made up of young men and young women who have the evangelistic spirit. They present pro– grams of praise and worship in various churches. Rules and Regulations Supervision of Girls.-As far as space permits, all girls rooming in Cedarville during the school year are expected to live in Harriman Hall. If accommodations are not available for all at Harriman Hall, the Dean of Women will assist girls to find rooms in carefully ap– proved private homes. The Housemothers, both in the Dormitory and in private homes where girls may be rooming, cooperate with the Dean in seeing that rules are observed. In the Dormitory, a house– president and a student-government committee assist the Dean and the Housemother. Girl students are expected to be in by nine o'clock, except on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, when they must be in by ten-thirty. With the written permission of the Dean upper classmen may be out later on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday or Satur– day night; Freshmen on Thursday, Friday or Saturday. Other rules affecting students of the College are similar to those in force at the majority of Christian colleges. An advisory system by which each student is encouraged to regard some member of the faculty as his special advisor has recently been inaugurated. This is of benefit, of course, in all aspects of college life and development, and only incidentally as regards the rules for students. Grading and Credits In all courses students are gr aded according to their scholarship by t he use of the following symbols: A, denoting excellent; B, de– noting good; C, denoting fair; D, denoting passing; and F, denoting failed. The comparative merit of tests, examinations and all other exer cises, and the final standing 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.
u GENERAL INFORMATION Seme ter-Hour.-In all of the courses, credit is counted by the " emestPr-hour." A "credit" or "semester-hour" is one recitation, lec– ture, or laboratory period a week for one semester. A student com– pleting the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one semester receives credit for fifteen semester-hours, and if such work i 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 on-half of the academic or collegiate year of nine months. Required Merit Points.-In every course in the collegiate depart– ment 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 is 120. It is evident that an average 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 grad– uation. By the use of points a student may readily determine the quality of progress he is making in bis 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 maxi– mum 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.
