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 XXVIII. Cedarville, Ohio, April, 1943 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 instr ucted by the Great Teacher. Self-Help Opportunities Cedarville College _has embarked upon a greatly expanded stu– dent self-help program. As a first step in this program a 205 acre farm is owned and operated under the direction of a competent man– ager. St udents will be enabled to earn a part of their expenses while in college. The academic schedule will be planned to provide suitable hours for farming. Many part-time working opportunities are available in the com– munity. Loan and scholarship funds are available to recommended students.

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 uccess 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.-The Cedarville College was _founded by the Reformed Presbyterian Church and was granted a charter by the State of Ohio in 1887. It opened September 19, 1894. In 1928 the General Syno<l of the Reformed Presbyterian Church unanimously voted to transfer "all control, ownership, title and vest– ed property rights of The Cedarville College" to the Board of Trus– tees of the College, "and their successors for ever." Since 1928, the Board, a majority of whom must be members of the Presbyterian Church, have operated the College. 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-nine 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 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 num– ber ·of young men and women who must earn a part of their own college expenses, the Board of Trustees is developing a student self– help program. Through the ownership of a farm and other indus– tries, opportunities will be made available whereby the students may earn a part of their expenses. 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
GENERAL INFORMATION 9 Educat ion recognized Cedarville College as an institution for the professional training of teachers. Students whose work can merit the r ecommendation 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 a ssociation numbering several hundred of the leading Christian institutions of higher education in the country. Commendation.-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. Gro\lllds and Buildings Campus.- 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 t he lat e Whitelaw Reid. One part of the campus was a gift from W. J. Alford, 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 Gyrnnasium.-Alford Memorial Gymnasium was given to Cedarville College by W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mot her, 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. Carnegie Library.- Carnegie Library was the gift of the late Andrew Ca rneg ie. An arr angement has been made whereby t he college benefit s from the full facilities of the Greene County Public Library system a s 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 t housand volumes. The library also contains rooms for the dining club, t he 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 Educat ion also. Harriman Hall.-A large home next to t he Carnegie Library was acquired in the summer of 194-0, and has been remodeled as a resi– dence hall for girls. Named in honor of Dr . W. P . Harriman, late
10 GENERAL INFORMATION trustee of the College, Harriman Hall provides a center for girls' social life on the campus as well a s serving a s a much-needed dorm– itory. Several special gifts from generous fri end s 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 Club.-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. 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," crystallizes each year's activities into permanent literary and pictorial form. A weekly news– paper, "The Whispering Cedars," is edited and published by the
GENERAL INFORMATION 11 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' Advisory 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 Alford 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 climax the year's work. This is, of course, made the crowning day of the school year, with the awarding of degrees and academic honors for the year. A prominent guest is the Commencement speaker. It should be mentioned that war conditions may make necessary temporary changes in these and other traditional Cedarville College activities. Health and Physical Education Athletic Facilities.-The College 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; 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-
12 GENERAL INFORMATION 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. Among these are: six-man touch football, soccer, speedball, tennis for men and women, soccer-baseball, soccer– bowlmg, 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 limited 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. Attendance is required. It is the effort of those in charge to keep these services closely related to stu– dent life. The chapel committe includes both faculty and student mem– bers. 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. Young Men's Christian Association.-The Young Men's Christian Association of Cedarville College represents on the local campus the four-fold program of this inter-national organization-physical, men– tal, social, and spiritual. Young ,vornen's Christian Association.-The Young Women's Christian Association of Cedarville College maintains all of the characteristic activities which have made this organization such a power for good among the college girls of America. Day of Prayer.-Recognizing the value of prayer in a well-round– ed Christian life, Cedarville College seeks to develop the prayer life of its students. The Annual Day of Prayer for Colleges and Schools is a very great factor in the development of this Christian principle. Gospel Tearn.-The Gospel Team is made up of young men and
GENERAL INFORMATION 13 young women who have the eva11gelistic 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 graded according to their scholarship by the 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 exercises, 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. Semester-Hour.-In all of the courses, credit is counted by the "semester-hour." A "credit" or "semester-hour" is one recitation, lec– ture, or laboratory period a week for one semester. For illustration a student completing the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one semester receives crdit for fifteen semester-hours. 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 "A", three points for each credit are award– ed; for grade "B" two pofots; for grade "C" one point; for grade "D" no points. A minimum of 120 merit points is required for graduation from a degree course. (Merit points are not given for required physical
14 GENERAL INFORMATION education courses). It is evident that an average grade of " " is necessary for graduation. By the use of points a student may read– ily d termine 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 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." Honor Society.-In 1920 an honor society, called the Cedarville College Crown Club, was established, to which mem'bers 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 mem– bership in this society. (2) One who in four semesters has obtained not more than one grade of B in each semester, all other grades be– ing A, may be elected to membership. (3) A student may be elected to membership upon graduation after a full four-years' course, pro– vided 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 in– stitutions 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. The following were elected to membership in the Cedarville Col– lege Crown Club in 1942: Roger David Galey, Jr., Lee Miller, and Marion Muller. Contests and Prizes John Alford Prizes.-These prizes, established by the Rev. John Alford, D. D., a distinguished minister of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and a trustee of Cedarville College, are now continued in his memory by his daughter, Miss Martha Alford. The prizes are used for the purchase of Crown Club pins, and are awarded annually through the Cedarville College Crown Club for the attainment of high scholar– ship. Bible Reading Contests.-Miss Margaret Belle Rife, of the class of 1916, annually offers prizes of five, four, three, two and one dollar for a girls' Bible reading contest held in the Spring of each year. Rev. C. M. Ritchie, D.D., an honorary alumnus of the class of 1916, annually offers similar prizes for a men's contest held in the Autumn.
GENERAL INFORMATION 15 Funds Income.-The annual income of Cedarville College comes from four sources, namely (1) the tuition fees from students, (2) in– terest from the productive endowment, (3) annuities; (4) voluntary gifts from individuals, from congregations of the Reformed Presby– terian Church, General Synod, and the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A., and an annual contribution from the Board of Education of the Re– formed Presbyterian Church.
