f}eneral Information INTRODUCTION CEDARVILLE CoLLEGE is located in a rural community, yet has the advantage of being within easy driving distance of the cities of central and southwest– ern Ohio. Cedarville is in Greene County, Ohio, forty-six miles southwest of Columbus and sixty miles northeast of Cincinnati; it is twenty-two miles from Dayton, eleven from Springfield and eight from Xenia; bus lines be– tween these cities follow routes 42 and 72 through the town. Cedarville College was established in 1894 as a liberal arts institution; it grants the degree of Bachelor of Arts, of Bachelor of Science, and of Bachelor of Science in Education; and offers pre-professional curricula in a wide variety of fields. Cedarville College is approved by the Veterans' Administration for the education of World War II veterans under The Rehabilitation Act of 1944 (The G. I. Bill of Public Law 346) and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act (Public Law 16). RECOGNITION Bv ITS CHARTER, issued under the laws of the State of Ohio, January 12, 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. It is a member of the American Association of Colleges, Commission of Church– Related Colleges. Cedarville College is also working toward accreditation by the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. HISTORY CEDARVILLE CoLLEGE was originally conceived and founded by The Re– formed Presbyterian Church. In 1889 that group obtained a charter from the State of Ohio for the college. The first session opened September 9, 1894; that year thirty-six students enrolled, and classes were conducted in a rented house, formerly owned by The Reverend Hugh MacMillan, who had conducted an academy there in the middle years of the 19th century. Among the faculty members that first year was W. R. McChesney, later the presi6
GENERAL INFORMATION 7 dent of the college. In another year the first college building, "Old Main", had been completed, and from 1895 classes have been conducted there. The Theological Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Church was moved to Cedarville in 1913, and continues to operate in close co-operation with the college. In 1928, the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church un– animously voted to transfer "all control, ownership, title and vested prop– erty rights of the Cedarville College" to the Board of Trustees of The Col– lege, "and their successors forever". Since 1928, The Board, a majority of whom must be members of the Presbyterian Church, have operated the college. Despite the severance of The College from The Reformed Presbyterian Church, Covenanter character continues to make its influence felt. On the college seal is still the Covenanter motto: 'Pro corona et foedere Christi'– 'For the crown and covenant of Christ'. And something of its founders' toughness of moral fibre inheres in the Cedarville College attitude toward life and learning. The essential quality of the Cedarville spirit is an in– heritance from them, compounded of their competence in practical affairs, their intellectual discipline and intellectual integrity, their rectitude, and their faith in God. OBJECTIVES THE OBJECTIVES of Cedarville College, like those of other liberal arts col– leges, are to teach yourig people to earn their livings, and to educate them to live. Cedarville College believes that the student must be trained to take his place as a participant in the modern world, as educator, as business or professional man, as minister or politician-not only that he may provide for his family, but also that he may become a leader in his community. Cedarville College believes that a liberal arts education includes study of the humanities. All that has come down to us from remote ages through eras of change and progress-the heritage of information about the works and the spint of man-must be known to be correlated with the world we li, e in, the deeds of contemporary man, and his potentialities. In the hu– manities- m philosophy, literature, art, music and history-are to be found t!te most eloquent testimony of the dignity of man and the invincibility of his pirit. edar ille allege belie es that education must also include a study of science. here must be, in the minds of leaders and teachers of others, know! dge enough to use wisely the power that science bestows on man-
8 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE kind, and tra1mng enough in scientific method to enable the student to distinguish between what is true and what is false, to know what science is, and what it can and cannot do. Most important, Cedarville College holds fast to the faith that religion is the cornerstone of a man's life, and that a study of Christian beliefs and Christian ethics is a necessary part of education. Cedarville College students are taught that 'Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it'. If Cedarville College accomplishes its objectives, even imperfectly, its students achieve in their years of study not only book knowledge, but en– richment and release of personality, and courage, faith and a positive ap– proach to the unforeseeable contingencies of the present and the future. FACILITIES Campus. Cedarville College lies within the limits of the village of Cedarville. That part of the campus which is behind and north of the buildings merges with open country. The campus itself is extensive, part of it the gift of friends like the late W. J. Alford, Sr. On its southern edge, west of the Recreation Hall, is the baseball diamond, and close to the northern limit, the football field. The southeast corner of the campus is richly wooded with deciduous trees: maples, a buckeye, a linden, and with evergreens. The drive is lined with maples and the formal walk bordered with arbor vitae; a group of spruce trees stands before the Science Hall and in the open meadow to ·the west, and solitary maples, ash and elm here and there spread wide branches in full sun. These trees, the chief beauty of the campus, were the gift of the late Whitelaw Reid, who never forgot that Cedarville was "home". College Hall. "Old Main", built in 1895, is the oldest and the original college building. It has the spaciousness of a bygone day, when building costs were lower, but it has been completely modernized and rewired, and fluorescent lighting has been installed. On its first floor are the administra– tive offices and an assembly room; on the second and third floors are class– rooms. Science Hall. Erected in 1922, Science Hall contains facilities for the physical sciences: classrooms and the chemical and physical labor:2tories; other classrooms and the workroom of the art-education classes. Biological Laboratories. The new science building, materials for which were given to the college by the government, was put up by the student themselves, except for the electrical wiring, the installation of the furnace, and the roofing.
GENERAL INFORMATION 9 T he purpose of the gift was to provide storage for the surplus radio and electronic equipment, provided by the government for the use of the Physics Department. The new building is large enough to house also the Biology Department: a large classroom with modern equipment, beginning and advanced laboratory rooms, and the department office. The laboratories are furnished with the latest equipment, including ample preserved and demonstration materials, visual aids such as charts and models, adequate microscopic apparatus with complete slide series for the curriculum offered, sufficient reagents, and facilities for living plants and animals. Alford Memorial Gymnasium. The gymnasium was presented to the college by W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mother, Dr. and Mrs. John Alford of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. The building itself is the oldest and has the most interesting history of any now a part of Cedarville College. It was originally the Reformed Presbyterian Church, where the founding families of Cedarville township worshiped, and the period of its building is proclaimed by its Greek Revival architecture, the cornice and the square pilasters of its facade. Tradition says that Whitelaw Reid was baptized in this church. When the new Reformed Presbyterian church was built, Mr. Alford purchased the old one as a gift to the college, and contributed the money for its conversion into a gymnasium. Now much enlarged, it contains a basket– ball floor, which is used for college dances when the playing season is over, and for Homecoming and Alumni banquets. The floor has tiers of wide bleacher space on each side, and at one end a stage, used during school hours as a physical education class room. There are also locker rooms, a training room, and offi~es fo r the men's and women's Directors of Physical Education. Carnegie Library. The library building was the gift of the late Andrew Carnegie. By an arrangement made several years ago, the College Library became a part of the Greene County Library System, so that faculty and students have full access to about one hundred and fi fty periodicals and of the 34,000 books which are in Xenia and will be sent to Cedarville on re– quest. Permanently shelved in the Cedarville Library are over 7,000 vol– umes, including specialized collections built up over the years by the Col– lege. In 1950-51 a successful campaign for funds by a committee of citizens of edarville provided for the complete redecoration of the interior of the library, and for the installation of fluorescent lighting in the reading room. The library building also contains rooms for the college boarding club an<l for the Department of Music. Harriman Hall. The re idence hall for women, which has room for si teen girls, was gn en to the college by a friend and member of the congre– gation of the late W. P. Harriman, who had at one time been the minister
10 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE of the Presbyterian Church in Cedarville, and a member of the Board of Trustees of the College. The hall was named in honor and memory of him. The girls' rooms, on the second floor, are comfortably furnished; on the tirst floor, in addition to a faculty apartment, is a large parlor, with piano, for the girls' use in entertaining themselves and their callers. In the base– ment are laundry facilities. Rife Hall. The Rife homestead, just north of what used to be the cam– pus boundary, was presented to the college after her mother's death by Miss Carrie Rife (Mrs. R. A. Jamieson). Miss Rife taught at the college until her marriage, and her family have attended and been friends of Cedarville for many years. The hall was named in her and their honor. The first floor is a faculty apartment, and the second floor is a men's dormitory, with rooms for fifteen. Men's Dormitory. The "Barracks" is so nicknamed because the Federal Government gave it to the College after the end of World War IL Brought to Cedarville and re-erected near Rife Hall, it is now a men's dormitory which accommodates about seventy men students. Recreation Hall. The "Rec Building" was also given to the college by the government at the close of the war, and was rebuilt on the campus close to College Hall, where it can be used between classes as lounge, study, game-room and general meeting place. Here faculty and students come for eleven o'clock coffee; here student organizations meet in the evenings and informal parties are held, and here the new television set is a center of at– traction at all times. Recreation Hall also houses the College Co-op where students may purchase school supplies and such necessities as Freshmen caps. STUDENT ACTIVITIES Student Government. All student activities are carried on under stu– dent leadership and planning with the advice of the Dean of the college. The Student Council is composed of an elected representative from each of the four classes, and a student council president elected from the study body by popular vote. The Student Council is responsible, under the supervision of the administration, for student discipline. It is represented on the social committee and assists in the planning of a social calendar for the year. When the student body has suggestions or requests to make, or protests or objections to present, for administrative judgment or faculty action, it is represented by the Student Council. Election to this group is considered a distinct honor, and the president is recognized as the leader of the student body. Musical Organizations. Musical activities are varied and many at Cedar-
GENERAL INFORMATION 11 ville College. The college music department sponsors a choral society that performs at various school functions throughout the year. Students are en– couraged to take part in trios, quartets and other musical groups. Dramatics. All students of acceptable academic standing are invited to become members of the Dramatics Club. Participation in its activities pro– vides opportunities for developing their abilities not only to students who like acting, but also to those who enjoy a "back-stage" atmosphere enough to work on lights, scene painting and costuming. Short plays are presented at the College at intervals during the year, and at least one three act play is given at the Opera House for the pleasure of the general public. Fraternities and Sororities. Cedarville College believes in the high pur– poses and function of fraternities and sororities. Very definite rules regard– ing the scholarship of members, pledging procedure, the regulation of social functions, which come under the jurisdiction of the social committee, and the conduct of the Greek letter organizations have been set up and are en– forced by the faculty. There is one local Greek letter organization and chap– ters of two national fraternities at Cedarville. Social Calendar. Social events are planned and placed on the calendar by the Social Committee, which is composed of representatives of the Stu– dent Council, class presidents, and the members of the faculty Social Com– mittee. Requests for dates are handed to this committee by the various or– ganizations, and class parties, informal and formal dances, dramatic events, pep rallies are scheduled so as not to interfere with each other and so as to be evenly spaced throughout a semester. Students are also encouraged to take part in the social events of Cedar– ville's church-sponsored young people's groups. Publications. The undergraduate publications sponsored by Cedarville College are written by students under the supervision of a Director of Publicity. "The Whispering Cedars", a semi-monthly publication, is written and edited by the students for the students. This college newspaper includes general items of interest, society, class, extra-curricular and sports news, stu– dent ditorials and 'letters to the editor' and a 'column'. "The edarville ollege Bulletin", issued periodically, carrie news of ....edarville's work to a large mailing list of alumni and friend throughout the country. The bulletin is edited and published by the Director of Public– it , together with the h lp of tudents who are journali tically inclined. edrus", whi h i the coll ge yearbook, crystallizes each year's activit1 s into permanent lit rary and pictorial form. It serves a a per– man nt r minder to th student of the \ ent that ar rowded into the
12 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE school year, and of the day-to-day activities that seem unimportant but are so pleasant to remember. Chess Club. Newly organized at Cedarville College last year was the Cedarville College Chess Club. Instructed by the experienced players, num– erous beginners become adept at this ancient and international past time. ATHLETICS THE COLLEGE includes health, physical efficiency and recreational activities among the several objectives of higher education. It has therefore made pro– visions for physical education and athletic activities. Physical Education is required of all students during their freshman and sophomore years, unless a student is specifically excused by the faculty or on recommendation of a physician. Activities in these classes are con– fined to calisthenics, group games, relays and related work. Ample facilities have been provided for athletics, including all the in– door and outdoor sports for both men and women. Alford Memorial Gym– nasium houses the indoor sports. The College Field contains a regular gridiron around which a ~ mile track is proposed. An excellent baseball diamond provides ample playing area for this popular spring sport. Ad– jacent to the Gym is the women's athletic field and the community roque court, one of the finest of its kind. Cedarville College maintains intercollegiate athletics competition in football, basketball, baseball, track and tennis. Intramural programs are car– ried on in these activities and in volleyball, ping-pong, tennis, and roque. Cedarville College is a member of the Mid-Ohio Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and the National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball. Ath– letic relations are carried on with the leading colleges in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Indiana. REGULATIONS Supervision of Women. As far as space permits, all women students rooming in Cedarville during the school year are expected to live in Harri– man Hall. If accommodations are not available for all at Harriman Hall, the Dean of Women will assist women students to find rooms in carefully approved private homes. The Housemothers, both in the Dormitory and in private homes where women students may be rooming, cooperate with the Dean of Women in seeing that rules are observed. In the Dormitory, a house-president and a student-government committee assist the Dean and the Housemother. Women students are expected to be in by nine-thirty o'clock P. M. except on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night when they must
GENERAL INFORMATION 13 be in by ten-thirty. With the written permission of the Dean upperclassmen may be out later on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, Fresh– men on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. 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. RELIGIOUS LIFE Chapel. Once a week the college conducts a fifty minute chapel period at the Cedarville United Presbyterian Church. Convocation programs are varied ; the speakers are distinguished representatives of their fields: minis– ters of different denominations, educators, journalists, scientists ·and public men. Attendance at chapel is required of all students. Churches. In the village of Cedarville are five churches which welcome the students of Cedarville to all of their Sunday and week-day activities: Methodist, Presbyterian, United Presbyterian, Church of God, Nazarene. In Xenia are churches of other denominations which are glad to see Cedar– ville College students at their services: Baptist, Episcopalian, Lutheran, Friends, Reformed, United Brethren, and Roman Catholic. Students remaining in Cedarville for weekends are encouraged to at– tend the church of their preference. Young Men's Christian Association. The Young Men's Christian Asso– ciation of Cedarville College represents on the local campus the social and spiritual program of this international organization. Young Women's Christian Association. The Young Women's Christian Association of Cedarville College maintains all of the characteristic activi– ties which have made this organization such a power for good among the college girls of America.

Cedarville College celebrates four occasions during the year when alumni are especially invited to return : the fall homecoming, the winter homecoming, Cedar Day, and the Alumni Banquet of Commence– ment Week. The fall homecoming begins with a bonfire and pep rally on Friday evening, continues with a parade on Saturday morning, and alumni and class reunions, a buffet lunch; then, in the afternoon, with the crowning of the Queen and a football game with some traditional rival. In the evening, after a dinner in the gym served by the Ladies' Advisory Board, and a few moments of informal program, the day concludes with a student-alumni dance. The winter homecoming is in February, with a similar program, ex– cept that it centers around basketball rather than football. Cedar Day 1s the highlight of the college year. For it a day in May is chol>en, when the sun may reasonably be expected to shine, for it is an out– door occa ion. Long ahead of time the "Theme" is chosen, dances worked out anJ rehearsed and class stunts planned. To reign over the festivities a ( eJar ay Queen and rator are selected by the student body. The great Jay begins with a parade: fraternity float , bands, the Que n auJ Ii r ttendants. When the parade returns to the campu , the queen and lier maids of honor, h r tram bearers and pages, proceed in slow pro ession tu the llow r J c.:k J throne agarnst the background of the fir tree in the
16 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE meadow. Here she is crowned by last year's queen, and from her throne, surrounded by her attendants, watches the program carried out in her honor. The Orator speaks to the assembled students, alumni and friends, the Queen's subjects dance, tumble, clown, and circle the Maypole. When the program has come to an end, participants and audience join in a buffet luncheon and afterwards return to the campus to watch the college baseball team play against some favorite opponent. The fourth and last of Cedarville's homecoming events is the Alumni Banquet which comes at Commencement time. Dinner is served by the Ladies' Advisory Board in the gym. After dinner the annual business meet– ing of the Alumni Association is held; graduating seniors are welcomed into the Association, some eminent speaker-perhaps an alumnus-is heard. When the formal meeting is adjourned, the younger alumni continue their reunion at a formal dance. Commencement. Commencement exercises crown the school year. The period begins with the Alumni Banquet, continues with the Baccalaureate Service on the last Sunday evening, and concludes with the Commencement exercises. On Commencement morning the college awards degrees to grad– uating seniors and the distinguished persons whom it has chosen to honor, welcomes to membership in the Crown Club such upperclass students as have won that coveted distinction, and listens with respect to whatever prominent speaker has been chosen to deliver the commencement address. SESSIONS SEMESTER PLAN THE REG LAR school year consists of two semesters of seventeen weeks each, extending from September to the end of May. Credits are earned in terms of semester hours. A semester hour is one recitation, lecture, or laboratory period a week for one semester. As an illustration, a student completing the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one semester receives credit for fifteen semester hours.

Academic <:.Regulations COURSE NUMBERS, 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 passing, and F, denoting failure. The merit of test papers, examinations and all other exercises, and the .final standing of the student in any course, are indicated by the use of the same symbols. Course Numbering System. Each course offered at Cedarville College is given a number. Courses with numbers below 100 are pre-college courses, and college credit is not given for them. Courses numbered 100-200 are open to all students, but required courses on this level must be taken in the fresh– man year. Those from 200-300 are open to all students except freshmen, provided that any prerequisite courses in the 100-200 group have been com– pleted. Required courses on the 200 level must be taken in the sophomore year. 300-400 courses may be taken by juniors and seniors who have com– pleted any specified prerequisite courses; required courses on the 300 level must be taken in the junior year. 400 courses are open to seniors who have had the necessary prerequisites. Language courses required for the B.A. degree may be taken in any year, regardless of the course numbers, but it is recommended that begin– ning courses in languages be taken as early in the four years as possible. Students who transfer from other colleges with advanced standing must take as soon as possible after their transfer those required courses which they would already have completed had they entered Cedarville as beginning freshmen. Courses ending in a O are offered and can be taken in either semester. Courses ending in odd numbers are offered the .first semester and those end– ing in even numbers the second semester. Cedarville College reserves the right to offer or withhold any of its listed courses. Semester Hour. In all courses credit is counted by the "semester hour". A "credit" or "semester hour" is one recitation, lecture or laboratory period a week for a semester. For example, a student who completes .five courses, each of which has three recitations a week, will receive credit at the end of the semester for .fifteen hours. Required Merit Points. To meet the requirements for all degrees and programs leading to teacher certification it is necessary to have twice as 22
A CADEMIC REGULATIONS 23 many merit points as the specific number of credit hours. For grade "A" fou r points are awarded; for grade 'B" three points; for grade "C", two points; fo r grade "D", one point. A minimum of 248 points is therefore required for graduation from a degree course and an average grade of "C" is necessary for graduation. By the calculation of points, a student may readily determine the progress he is making. 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". Cedarville College Crown Club. 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 so– ciety. (2) One who in fou r semesters has obtained not more than one grade of B in each semester, all other grades being A, may be elected to member– ship. (3) A student may be elected to membership upon graduation after a full four-year 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 el igible 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 bear– ing the letters C.C.C.C. Dean's Honor L ist. Until final awards are announced at commence– ment, the highest academic honor it is possible to attain at Cedarville is to be included on the Dean's honor list. This list of high-ranking students is published at the end of each regular semester and at the end of the second summer session. The requirements for the Dean's H onor List are as follows: ( 1) A student must have an average for the semester of 3.5 merit points which are earned as explained above: each hour of "A" receives 4 merit points; each hours of "B", 3 merit points; each hour of "C", 2 merit points; each hour of "D", 1 merit point. The average is arri ed at by total– ing the number of merit points and dividing the total by the number of hours the student 1s carrying. (2) A student must ha,e no grade for the semester lower than a "B". (3) A student must carry a m1mmum of 12 emester hours of ollege , ·ork.
24 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE (4) A student must complete every course he is taking by the end of the semester, when grades are turned in by the faculty. Any grade of "in– complete" will preclude a student's candidacy for the Dean's Honor List. CONTESTS AND PRIZES John Alford Prizes. These prizes, established by the Reverend 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 they are awarded annually through the Cedarville College Crown Club for the attainment of high scholarship. Bible Reading Contests. Each year friends of the college offer prizes for Bible Reading Contests. These contests are a part of the year's convoca– tion program. The men's contest takes place in the fall, the women's in the spnng. THE PRESIDENT'S TROPHY The President's trophy is an annual award of the college for which all members of the student body are eligible. The recipient of the award is judged on the basis of scholastic ability, character, leadership and sports– manship. A committee consisting of the President, the Dean, and the Dean of Men make the annual selection. The trophy was given to the College by E. H. Miller. · THE SCHOLARSHIP TROPHY The Scholarship Trophy is awarded annually at commencement. Eli– gibility is open to all members of the student body. The trophy will be awarded to the student who has attained the highest scholastic average dur– ing the academic year in which the award is made. This trophy was donated to the College by Josten's, Inc. LIMITATION ON CREDIT HOURS EACH SEMESTER The normal college load is 16 semester hours. Freshmen are limited to 17 hours per semester; and upperclassmen are limited to 17 except where their accumulative po1nt average indicates the advisability of taking addi– tional work.
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS 25 The following accumulative averages are required for excess hours as listed: 18 hours ____________________________3,00 or better 19 hours ____________________________________ 3.50 or better 20 hours ____________________________________-3.75 or better An additional tuition fee of $10 per hour is made for each hour in excess of 17. MINIMUM ACADEMIC POINT AVERAGE A student whose average for a semester falls below 2.00 is placed on probation for the following semester or two summer sessions. Twelve se– mester hours are carried during the probation period, and a point average of 2.00 must be achieved in order to be removed from probation.
