General nfor1nation PURPOSE The purpose of Cedarville College, a Baptist college of arts and sciences, is to offer its students an education consistent the following objectives in the areas of both general and special– ized education. To achieve this purpose the college seeks to accomplish the following objectives in the areas of both general and spe– cialized educanon. 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 9
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. 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 - 10
the Administrator of the Godhead-convicting of sin, revealing Christ, teaching truth, restraining evil, energizing believers in prayer, worship, and service, and is ever present in the believer as Comforter and Helper. 8. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, His ascension into heaven. His present life 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 resuJtrection 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: 11
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 is prerequisite to local church relation. The Lord's Supper is a 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 college is currently engaged in preliminary steps to– ward membership in the North Central Association of Second– ary Schools and Colleges. . 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 pass through our town. 12
HISTORY Cedarville College was originally conceived and founded by The Reformed Presbyterian Church. In 1887 that group obtained a charter from the State of Ohio for the college. The first session opened on September 9, 1894; in that year thirty six students were enrolled, and classes were conducted in a 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 spaciousness 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. 13
Sdem:e 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. George S. Milner Chapel This building was constructed by student labor in the summer and fall of 1954 and was dedicated to Mr. George S. Milner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, who gave gener– ously for its erection. The Chapel was enlarged in 1959 to pro– vide increased seating capacity and music facilities. The Chapel will seat about 400 people and is used for all devotional and spiritual exercises of the student body. Housing for Students The college maintains dormitories for both men and women. Rooms are furnished with beds, study tables, dressers, and closet space. Students are required to furnish their own bed linen, blankets, bedspreads, towels, pillows, etc. All stu– dents are expected to care for their own rooms, and to keep them presentable for inspection by the dormitory counselor, the dormitory supervisor, or the Dean of Students. · College dormitories include Rife Hall, Cedar Hall Harri– man Hall, and the Bookstore Dormitory for men; and Faith Hall, Sticka House, and a new dormitory for women. Coin operated laundry machines are available in the community. Married students must provide their own living quarters. The college renders all possible assistance in enabling such stu– dents to find suitable housing. A trailer court is maintained by the college, and space may be rented at the rate of $10.00 per month. This includes water, but electricity and garbage removal are additional. Alford Memorial Gymnasium This structure, erected in 1853, was presented to the col– lege by Mr. W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mother. It is the oldest building on the campus, having served originally 14
as the assembly hall of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Cedarville. When the latter's congregation moved into their new building, the old church was remodeled, enlarged, and con– verted into a gymnasium by the laying of a basketball floor and the provision of wide tiers of bleacher space on each side. Locker rooms, an equipment room, and an office for the di– rector of physical education complete the facilities. Dining Hall Remodeled in 1959 to provide increased dining and kitch– en facilities, the dining hall is a separate building on campus. All meals are served cafeteria style. library The library building, erected in 1907, was the gift of the late Andrew Carnegie. Permanently shelved in the Cedarville Library are about 17,000 volumes, 239 periodicals, and refer– ence works. By an arrangement with the Greene County Li– brary System, the faculty and students also have access to about 100,000 books which are in Xenia and branch libraries. These books will be sent to Cedarville on request. Student Center Provision for social and recreational needs of the students are provided on the main floor of the new dormitory. Housed here me the snack shop, bookstore and lounge. STANDARDS OF CONDUCT Before any student is enrolled at Cedarville College, he must sign a statement signifying his willingness to abide by the rules and regulations of the school. Students who do not co– operate in maintaining the standards of conduct established by the school may be requested to withdraw at any time.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES Chapel The students and faculty meet together each day for wor– ship and fellowship in a chapel service. Every student is re– quired to attend. Students are permitted five absences without excuse. Faculty members, visiting pastors, educators, evan– gelists, and missionaries serve as speakers for these programs. Praise, prayer, worship and practical Christian work and serv– ice are stressed during these daily chapel services. Christian Service Personal soul-winning, tract distribution, house-to-house visitation, Sunday School classes, Bible Clubs, gospel teams, and services in churches, hospitals, missions, and jails provide practical experience in Christian service. Gospel teams hav.e been used of God to bring salvation and edification to many souls. A faculty member appointed by the Administrative Committee is in charge of the department of Christian service. A weekly report is required of each student and permanent record of his service is kept. Devotional In addition to private devotions and weekly dormitory prayer meetings, half-hour mission prayer meetings are con– ducted each morning before the beginning of classes. One day is designated each semester as a day of prayer. A week of evangelistic meetings are held early in the fall semester and a week-long Bible conferrence is held in the spring. Attendance at these services is required. Dramatics Each year the students, under the direction of a member of the speech department, present major play productions. These are an important part of the College's program of personality and cultural development.

STUDENT AID A Student Aid Fund, administered by a faculty committee, has been established to assist worthy students who are in need 23
at various times. This is not a scholarship fund nor a means of paying regular student accounts, but it is a loan fund to assist the student that is faced with a financial eme,rgency. SCHOLARSHIPS Twelve academic scholarships are available to students who have demonstrated academic ability and a definite financial need. These are for half tuition and provide the opportunity of sufficient employment by the college, to cover the cost of room and board. These scholarships are awarded on a semester basis with a minimum of a 3'.00 academic average required for renewal. Christian character, service, and cooperation are also consid– ered in awarding these scholarships. Application blanks are available in ithe registrar's office. Athletic scholarships are awarded to qualified athletes. STUDENT EMPLOYMENT Although not able to guarantee employment, the school seeks to assist needy students in securing part-time employ– ment to help them meet necessary school expenses. Students who are obliged to work more than 24 hours a week are not advised to carry a full course of studies. STUDENT HOSPITALIZATION All students are required to carry accident and sickness insurance through the College unless they have insurance cov– erage with their parents or at their place of employment. If they have some othe'r insurance coverage, they must sign a waiver agreement at registration time. The fee for this service is $20.50 per year for single students and $70.00 for married students on the family plan. This is twelve-month coverage and provides coverage for the student any place in the United States. Cedarville College reserves the right to alter its charges at any time without advance notice. 24

Admission requirements are the same for veterans as for non-veterans. To register and receive the benefits of the G. I. Bill and Rehabilitation Act, the veteran must present a cer– tificate of eligibility obtained through his local veterans' ad– ministration officer. A veteran transferring to Cedarville College must furnish a Supplementary Certificate of Eligibility. Registration The official dates of registration for each session are listed in the school calendar. Pre-registration periods may be designated for students in residence. Registration consists of the following procedures: 1. ARRANGEMENT OF SCHEDULE. Although each student has a faculty advisor to help with sched– uling, the student is entirely responsible for his course of study. 2. APPROVAL OF SCHEDULE. Each student must have his schedule approved by his faculty advisor. 3. PAYMENT OF FEES. The registration card must be approved by the business office before registra– tion is considered complete. GENERAL REGULATIONS Sessions and Credits The regular school year consists of two semesters of eight– een weeks each, extending from September to June. Credits are earned in terms of semester hours. A semester credit hour is one fifty-minute period a week for one semester. As an illus26
tration: a student completing the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one semester receives credit for fifteen se– mester hours. Exceptions to this are laboratory sessions, applied music, and physical education. Classification of Students Freshmen: At least 15 acceptable units of high school credit or its equivalency. Sophomore: Minimum of 26 hours first semester; minimum of 39 hours second semester. Junior: Senior: Special: Minimum of 54 hours first semester; minimum of 70 hours second semester. Minimum of 86 semester hours first semester; enough hours with appropriate grade points second semester to assure fulfilling all the requirements for graduation the following June. A limited number of students who are not desirous of pursuing a regular course of study are permitted to take selected subjects. 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 attended both semesters to obtain credit; while those separated by a comma may be taken either semester for credit. 27
In all cases the student should read the course description to find out whether he has the necessary prerequisite courses. The symbols following 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 CHEMISTRYu ('62·'63) Prerequisite: Chemistry 132 A detailed study of the general principles. Aliphatics, aro– matics, natural products, etc. Emphasis is placed on mechan– isms. Three lectures, one lab per week. four credit hours each iemester This course is a junior level course in the department of chemistry offered for the full year (two semesters), both semes– ters being required 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 coqege load is 16 semester hours. Additional hours can be taken by permission of the academic dean. Stu– dents on academic probation are limited to from 12 to 14 hours. 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 statement of permission signed by the advisor and the in– structor of the class he is entering. The student is required to make up any work he has missed due to late entrance. Class Attendance Regular attendance in classes is necessary for the stu– dent to receive the full benefit of his college experience. 28
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 scholarship 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. USE OF GRADES FOR GUIDANCE Grades are issued at the end of nine weeks and at the end 29
of the semester. The purpose of the nine week marks is to in– dicate to the student the courses in which he needs to improve the quality or quantity of his work. This information should help him to raise low grades before the semester ends and they become final. The grades received in courses are also useful to indicate to the student the fields for which he has the greatest apti– tude. A student with low grades in a major or minor field is advised to select another field of concentration. The mark "Incomplete" is given when a student has done satisfactory work in a class but has been unable to complete all the required work because of conditions beyond his con– trol. The work may be made up within a period determined by the faculty member involved. If it is not completed during that period, the "incomplete" becomes an F. GRADE POINTS AND POINT AVERAGES Cedarville College uses what is called the "four point grade point system" to determine the exact academic average. Grade points are awarded as follows: Each semester hour of A = 4 grade points Each semester hour of B = 3 grade points Each semester hour of C = 2 grade points Each semester hour of D = 1 grade point Each semester hour of F = 0 grade points The grade point average is computed by dividing the total grade points earned by the total hours attempted. Withdrawal Withdrawal from courses must be reported to the Registrar with a statement of permission by the student's advisor. No grade is entered for the class if it is dropped during the first two weeks. After two weeks the grade will be entered as W. After nine weeks the grade will be entered as WP, withdrawn passing, or WF, withdrawn failing. In calculating grade points and academic averages the Registrar shall count as F all WF grades. Any course dropped after the 12th week of school shall be automatically counted as F. 30
