1942-1943 Academic Catalog

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.
