General Information PURPOSE The purpose of Cedarville College, a Baptist college of arts and sciences, is to offer its students an education consistent with Biblical truth. To achieve this purpose the college seeks to accomplish the following objectives: 1. To cultivate and develop in each student Christian char– acter through the attainment of sound knowledge and genu– ine wisdom. 2. To establish the student in the fundamentals of the Chris– tian Faith, to lead him into a continuing, progressive expe– rience of spiritual victory and to a practical expression of the Christian life in ethical behavior by the enabling of the Holy Spirit. 3. To help him accept his responsibility of leading others to Christ and into faithful Christian service in a local church where Biblical truth is intelligently propagated. 4. To give the student experiences which will enable him to solve problem situations through the skillful discovery, formulation, evaluation, and application of facts, concepts and principles in the light of Scriptural truths and precepts. 5. To familiarize the student with various fields of knowledge demanding competency in a few and proficiency in at least one, and to assist in the choice and preparation for a given profession or vocation. 6. To develop the understandings, attitudes, and habits neces– sary for him to participate constructively in the social and civic life of the community, the state, and the nation. 7. To develop within the student a desire for healthful living and mutual cooperation through instruction and participa– tion in wholesome physical activities. Since Cedarville College is the only college of arts and sciences officially approved by the General Association of Regu– lar Baptist Churches, its students are drawn primarily from Regular Baptist Churches in many parts of the United States. However, the college includes eligible young people from other churches in its student body. 8 ..
DOCTRINAL STATEMENT All officers and members of the faculty and board of trus– tees are required to sign the following Doctrinal Statement. 1. We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testa– ments as verbally inspired by God and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life. 2. We believe in one God, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent, manifesting Himself in three Persons Father, Son and Holy Spirit one in nature, attributes, power and glory. 3. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and that He is true God and true man. 4. We believe that man was created in the image of God; that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and in the case of those who reach moral responsibility, become sin– ners in thought, word, and deed. 5. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative and substitu– tionary sacrifice, and rose again for our justification; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood and are saved by grace through faith wholly apart from human merit and works. 6. We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Je– sus are born again by the Holy Spirit through the word of God and thereby become the children of God, possessing eternal divine life. 7. We believe that the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person - the Administrator of the Godhead convicting of sin, revealing Christ, teaching truth, rest1·aining evil, energizing believers in prayer, worship, and service, and is ever present in the believer as Comfo1~ter and Helper. 8. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of 9
our Lord, His ascension into heaven. His present llfe there as our High Priest and Advocate, and His personal, bodily, visible, premillennial return to establish His kingdom on earth and to reign as the only Potentate, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. 9. We believe that at any moment the rapture of the saved may occur, when ' 'the Lord shall descend from heaven'' to catch up His people to meet Him in the air, and ''so shall we ever be with the Lord.'' 10. We believe in the bodily resurrection of all the dead– the saved to a life of eternal glory and bliss in heaven with God; the unsaved to eternal judgment of conscious suffering and woe in the lake of fire. 11. We believe in separation from all worldly practices and in whole-hearted devotion to the cause of Christ as the only scriptural basis for a happy and useful Christian life. For this reason we oppose all indulgences in intoxicating liquors, in dancing, card playing, the narcotic use of tobacco in any form, theatre going, membership in secret societies, and all similar practices which detract from a spiritual life. 12. We believe that it is the privilege and responsibility of every believer to be a personal soul-winner and to do his utmost to give the Gospel of Christ to the whole world. 13. We believe that the true, universal Church includes all believers in Christ during this present dispensation and is the body and bride of Christ of which He is the Head. We be– lieve that the local church is a congregation of immersed be– lievers, associated by covenant, observing the ordinances of Christ, exercising the gifts, privileges, and responsibilities given in the New Testament, and following a democratic and congre– gational type of government. 14. We believe that there are two church ordinances: Baptism and the Lord's Supper. Baptism is the immersion of a believer in water to show forth in a solemn and beautiful emblem our faith in the crucified, buried, and risen Savior, and our death to sin and resurrection to a new life, and that it ls prerequisite to local church relation. The Lord's Supper is a 10
• memorial service commemorating His death until He comes, and should be preceded by believer's baptism and solemn self– examination. RECOGNITION By its charter, issued under the laws of the State of Ohio, January 12, 1887, Cedarville College is recognized as a degree granting institution. Cedarville College has been approved by the Veteran's Administration for education of veterans under the provision of Public Laws 550, and 634. The following quote is from the current edition of ' 'Credit Given by Educational Institutions' ' published by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers: ' 'Transcript of record accepted for admission on a provisional basis-to be validated by satisfactory work in residence.'' This edition further states that our students can transfer up to and including four years of work, and our graduates are accepted into graduate school. LOCATION Cedarville College is located in a rural community but possesses the advantage of being within easy driving distance from several cities of central and southwestern Ohio. The village, Cedarville, Ohio, wherein the college is located, is situated in Greene County and lies about 46 miles southwest of Columbus, 60 miles northeast of Cincinnati, 26 miles from Dayton, 11 miles south of Springfield, and 8 miles from Xenia. Buses which travel on U.S. 42 between Cincinnati and Co– lumbus, and Ohio 72 between Springfield and Chillicothe pass through the town. HISTORY Cedarville College was originally conceived and founded l)y r he Reformed Presbyterian Church. In 1887 that group obtained a cha1·ter from the State of Ohio for the college. The fi1'st s ~s ion opened 011 S ptember 9, 1894; in that year thirty six stud nts wer enrolled, and classes were conducted in a 11
rented house, formerly owned by the Reverend Hugh Mac– Millan, 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 president of the college. In another year the first college building, ''Old Main,'' had been completed, and from 1895 on classes have been conducted there. In 1928 the General Synod of The Reformed Presbyterian Church unanimously voted to transfer ' 'all control, ownership, title, and vested property rights of the Cedarville College'' to the Board of Trustees of the College, ' 'and their successors for– ever.' ' On April 4, 1953, the Trustees of the Baptist Bible Insti– tute of Cleveland met with the Trustees of Cedarville College. By a process of resignations and elections, the ownership and control of Cedarville College passed completely into the hands of the Trustees of Baptist Bible Institute with the vision and purpose of having a distinctively Baptist liberal arts college. In the fall of 1954 the Trustees of Cedarville College met and voted to discontinue the Bible Institute program and to con– centrate on the work of a liberal arts college. FACILITIES College Hall ' 'Old Main,'' built in 1895, is the original college building. It has the spacious·ness of a bygone day when building costs were lower, but it has been modernized and rewired; fluores– cent lighting has been installed. On its first floor are the ad– ministrative offices; on the second floor are classrooms; on the third floor are the audio-visual room and faculty offices. The basement houses the postoffice mailing and printing depart– ments. Science Hall Erected in 1922, Science Hall contains facilities for the physical and biological sciences. It is equipped with labora– tories, classrooms, and a darkroom. This building also tem– porarily houses the business administration department. 12 •

During these days the Freshmen be– come acquainted with the campus and the facilities provided for their instruction and welfare. Selected upper classmen and members of the faculty greet the new students and assist then1 in adapting to student life.

Course Numbers The course numbers may be of help to the student in se– lecting courses of the appropriate level. The following system is used: 1. The first digit indicates the year in which the course is nor– mally taken. Freshmen normally take 100 courses; Sopho– mores, 200 or 100 courses; Juniors, 300 or 200 courses, and Seniors, 400 or 300 courses. Courses beyond the student's classification may be taken only upon the consent of the instructor and the Registrar. 2. The second digit indicates the department. 3. The third digit indicates the semester. A zero indicates that the course may be offered either semester; odd numbers indicate first semester courses; and even numbers indicate second semester courses. The college reserves the right to offer or withhold any of its listed courses. Courses with hyphenated numbers must be 24
attended both semesters to obtain credit; while those separated by a comma may be taken either semester for credit. In all cases the student should read the course description to find out whether he has the necessary prerequisite courses. The symbols foilowing the course title indicate how often the course is to be offered. One asterisk (*) means that the course is offered every year; two (**) means every other year; three (***), every third year. The dates which follow in par– entheses indicate the first year the course is offered in its se– quence. A dagger (t) means that the course is offered only on sufficient demand. Example: 331-332 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY** Prerequisite: Chemistry 132 A detailed study of the general principles. Aliphatics, aron1atics, natural products, etc. Emphasis is placed on mechan– isms. Three lectures, one lab per week. Four credit hours each semester This course is a junior level course in the department of chemistry offered for the full year (two semesters), both semes– ters being req11ired for credit. The title of the course is 'Organic Chemistry' and the two asterisks point out that it will be of– fered every other year beginning in the 1960-1961 school year. The specific prerequisite is 'General Chemistry.' Next is the course description, followed by the number of credit hours for each semester in this case, four credit hours. Limitation of Credit Hours The normal college load is 16 semester hours. Additional hours can be taken by permission of the academic dean. Stu– dents on academic probation a1·e limited to from 12 to 14hours. Changes in Schedule Changes in schedule are permitted before the end of the second week of classes. The student who wishes to drop one course and add another is required to present to the Registrar a st at m 1 t oi permission signed by the advisor and the in– st1·uctor of the class he is entering. The student is 1·equi1·e(i to make up any work he has missed due to late ent1·ance.
• .. Class Attendance Regular attendance in classes is necessary for the stu– dent to receive the full benefit of his college experience. The Student Council and administration have set the following regulations to govern attendance. In general, students are permitted to be absent from a class without excuse the number of times that the class meets each week. For example, a student may be absent from a three– hour-course three times. However, each absence from a class on the day before or after a school holiday or vacation is counted as two absences. Being tardy for class three times constitutes one absence. Individual instructors will prescribe the effect of excessive absenses on the grade earned in the course. A student who is unable to attend classes because of illness is excused upon presentation of a written statement from the school nurse. Students who find it necessary to be absent be– cause of emergencies at home should notify the Dean of Stu– dents in order to be excused. After each absence, excused or unexcused, the student is required to make up the work he has missed. It is the re– sponsibility of the student to find out from his instructor how he can make up the work. It is also his responsibility to pre– pare for the class meeting that follows his absence. Physical Education Physical Education is required of all students unless a stu– dent is specifically excused by the faculty or on recommendation of a physician. Activities in these classes are confined to calis– thentics, group games, relays and related work. Ample facilities have been provided for athletics, including indoor and outdoor sports for both men and women. Alford Memorial Gymnasium houses the indoor sports. The college field contains a regular gridiron around which a quarter-mile track is proposed. An excellent baseball diamond provides ample playing area for this popular spring sport. The Grading System Students are graded according to their schola1'ship by the use of the following symbols: A, excellent; B, good; C, fair; D, passing with work inferior to the average; I, incomplete; and F, denoting failure and no credit. 26
