HISTORICAL SKETCH

THE institution now known as Richmond College developed out of "The Virginia Baptist Seminary," established in 1832, several miles northwest of the City of Richmond The Seminary at first accepted only candidates for the ministry. Rev . Robert Ryland, the first President, was assisted by two instructors . The number of students the first year was fourteen. The small, wooden buildings were bought with the piece of farm land and were unsatisfactory.

In 1833 the Semin a ry was removed to "Columbia," the Haxall homestead just west of the city limits. In this eligible location the school grew steadily March 4, 1840, a charter was granted by the Legislature and the name was changed to "Richmond College." On account of inability to offer immediately adequate courses of instruction no degrees were conferred by the College until 1849. Between this date and 1861, when classes were suspended on account of the war between the States, degrees were granted to sixty-eight young men Dr. Robert Ryland continued as President until 1866.

As a consequence of the war the College endowment was lost, the library destroyed, and the buildings all but wrecked. Nevertheless, the Trustees, encouraged by the gift of $5,000 for maintenance by James Thomas, Jr., elected Rev Tiberius Gracchus Jones, D . D., as President and reopened the College in 1866. Dr. Jones continued as President for three years. For the next twenty-six years the headship of the College was held by a Chairman of the Faculty Professor Bennett Puryear, LL. D., was Chairman 1869-1885 and again 1889-1895, and Professor H. H. Harris, LL. D., was Chairman 1885-1889. Among the notable men who gave the College distinction during this period were the two Chairmen, and Professors E. B. Smith, Edmund Harrison, J. L. M. Curry, A. B. Brown, W. D. Thomas, John Pollard, C.H. Winston and Secretary Charles H. Ryland. In 1873 and again in 1881 there were successful campaigns for money which pro-

vided new buildings and gave the nucleus of a new endowment. In 1894 the Trustees re-established the presidency of the College, and elected to the position F. W. Boatwright, at that time the youngest member of the faculty. Despite many difficulties there was steady growth. A science hall and a large dormitory were erected, and under the leadership of Dr. W. E. Hatcher, President of the Board of Trustees, $rno,ooo was added to the endowment.

In 1898 women were admitted to College classes. The restrictions upon matriculation of women did not prevent a slow but constant increase in the number of women students. It soon became evident that better provision should be made for women students. A five-year campaign, undertaken jointly with the Virginia Baptist Education Commission, and with the co-operation of the General Education Board of New York, added half a million dollars to the resources of the corporation. By 19m the Trustees began to build two co-ordinate Colleges in the western suburbs of Richmond and to prepare for removal. The buildings were completed in 1914 and the first session of the greater College began in September, 1914.

The new institution, still called "Richmond College," embraces a college for men, also called "Richmond College," and a college for women, named "Westhampton College." These two schools are co-ordinate, having practically the same entrance and degree requirements and doing work of the same grade. There is no co-education in either of the colleges, but a considerable number of the same professors teach classes in both. Each college has its own institutional life and both enjoy many advantages on account of the proximity and co -operation of the other. Among these advantages are economy in administration, a larger and better paid faculty of instruction, protection against academic isolation, and the enjoyment of a freer social and cultural life.

The campus of Richmond College embraces 150 acres and that of Westhampton College 130 acres. Westhampton Lake, covering nearly ten acres, separates the two colleges.

The grounds and buildings of Richmond College and Westhampton College are valued at $1,500,000. The income-bearing

RICHMOND COLLEGE CATALOGUE

endowment enjoyed by the two institutions jointly approximates $1,000,000. The dormitories and recitation buildings of both institutions are fire-proof structures, built of steel, concrete and brick. The floors are of reinforced concrete, the partitions of hollow tile, and the casements of bronze. Stairways are constructed of steel with slate treads. All buildings are heated throughout with hot water, lighted with electricity, and provided with the best modern sanitary equipment.

The buildings of the college for men have cost over $700,000. They include the library and administration buildings, the refectory, the two dormitories, the science laboratories, the auditorium, the power house, and the stadium. The architecture is collegiate Gothic . The main buildings, including the dormitories, are of fire-proof construction. All buildings are lighted by electricty and heated with hot water from a central heating plant. Water is supplied to all buildings from the city mains.

Direct communication is maintained with the heart of the City of Richmond by _ street cars, which enter the campus and make the trip for a five-cent fare. Faculty and students of both colleges have opportunity to enjoy all the advantages of a worldfamous capital city and, at the same time, to live and study in the quiet of a beautiful suburban park.

TEMPORARY CHANGE OF LOCATION

At the earnest request of the War Department the Trustees of Richmond College voted unanimously on April 25th, 1918, to grant to the Government for the duration of the war, the grounds and buildings of Richmond College and of Westhampton College to be used as an evacuation hospital for wounded soldiers. The students and faculty of both colleges heartily endorsed the request of the War Department and assured the Trustess of their loyal co-operation in whatever plans should be devised for the maintenance of the work of the College during the war.

The Trustees still hold most of the old campus and three of the former college buildings are available for use. "Columbia," the original college is being remodelled inside to house the library.

Whitsitt House will again be used as a dormitory. The offices of administration and lecture lecture rooms will be in the Memorial Hall, which is being thoroughly refitted. A three-story apartment house located on Lombardy Street, and just approaching completion has been purchased for a dormitory. A large residence on Grove Avenue has been rented for a dormitory and all rooms in this house are already engaged for next session. The garage of the Kaehler Motor Company, located on Ryland Street facing the campus, a modern two-story building, 65 x 140 feet, has been purchased for a laboratory building. All the desks and equipment will be moved from Westhampton during the summer and installed in this building. The Trustees believe they have been exceedingly fortunate in making such admirable arrangements for the accommodation of students and of the various college departments for the coming session.

Military training will be continued and will be in charge of officers appointed by the Government. Application has been made to have Richmond College designated as a Reserve Officers' Training Corps.

It will be of interest to students who may consider entering Richmond College next September to know that the change of location, while temporarily depriving the college of its extensive campus and beautiful buildings at Westhampton, will not deter any old students from returning. The students of 1917-'18 pledged themselves, so far as permitted by the obligations of the war, to return for the completion of their work. The new student will find among his fellows a spirit of loyalty and serious purpose and that the college authorities have provided amply for his comfort and his instruction.

Application for the holding of such an examination should be made to the Dean of the College not less than four weeks previous to the time at which the examination is desired. All candidates who take their examination on the days indicated will be charged no fee; for special examinations held on days other than those designated above, a fee of $r.oo will be charged.

ADVANCED STANDING

Candidates for advanced standing who present certificates of credit from other standard colleges will be accepted without examination and assigned to such courses as, in the judg-

ment of the Committee on Courses and Degrees, they may be prepared to enter. No advanced standing is given for work done elsewhere than in a standard college unless the student shows by passing an examination here that he has done work equivalent to that covered in the course for which the advanced credit is sought. Examinations for advanced standing must take place within the first ten days after the session opens.

PRELIMINARY PROFESSIONAL STUDIES

Attention is invited to the wide range of studies now offered in the College. Here the student who looks forward to professional study in engineering, law, or medicine may obtain not only general training, but will also have opportunity to make special preparation for his future work. The law student will find his special needs met in the subjects treated in the departments of English ; History, Economics, Political Science, and Philosophy. Similarly, the prospective student of medicine will find that the work in Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, and Physics has afforded him direct preparation for his profession. Students who specialize in Chemistry or Physics or Mathematics in addition to the essential work in English and Modern Languages, receive advanced standing for their work in the best schools of Engineering and Applied Arts.

ACCREDITED SCHOOLS

When an academy or high school furnishes evidence to the President of the College that it gives thorough college preparatory training to its students, it may be included in the list of accredited schools. A certificate of the principal, filled out on the form provided by the College, will then be accepted as sufficient evidence of the completion of the courses reported therein.

High school students who contemplate entering college should obtain from the College a blank Certificate of Admission, have same filled out by their principal, and forward it to the Dean of Richmond College during vacation.

GOVERNMENT

The deportment of a Christian gentleman is the standard to which every student is expected to conform. All appropriate means are used to develop and confirm a sense of personal honor and sacred regard for truth, as upon these rests the best reliance for good conduct. A few plain and reasonable rules are prescribed, and each matriculate must pledge himself to obey them.

I. Occupants of rooms will be held responsible for the good order of their rooms, as well as for any damage or defacement they may sustain. No person, other than an officer of the College, has any right to enter a lodging except upon invitation of the occupants. Changes from one room to another may be allowed by the Dean, but must not be made without his previous consent.

2. A resident student desiring to leave the premises during the hours when, by the schedule of recitations, he should be in his classes, shall get p~rmission from the Dean. Any student desiring to be absent from College shall get the Dean's permit in writing and exhibit it to each of his professors.

3. The Faculty regards hazing as a serious offence against College order.

4. If a student destroy, deface, or in any way damage College property, or aid and abet others in so doing, he shall, within twenty-four hours, report the fact to the Dean. Students will be charged pro rata for all damages not individually accounted for.

5. No student shall bring upon the premises or have in his possession any playing cards, intoxicating liquors, dogs or deadly weapons.

6. No Clubs or Societies shall be formed unless the Faculty, on application made, approve the design of such Association, the rules by which it proposes to be governed, and the hours of meeting.

7. Resident students desiring to board elsewhere than on the College premises must first obtain the approval of the Dean. No boarding houses can be approved whose meal hours do not conform to the college schedule.

In the observance of these rules and in all matters not specially mentioned, the deportment of a gentleman and a student is the standard to which every one is expected to conform. His sense of honor is the main reliance , and his word in matters touching his own conduct will be called for at the discretion of the Dean or President.

The student self-government organization, known as the Student Council of Richmond College, was voluntarily established by the students themselves to further the best interests of the student body and of the College in general. It is vitally concerned with maintaining the honor system in the institution. There is cordial co-operation between the Student Council and the constituted College authorities. Every matriculate of the College is a member of this organization.

ABSENCES

At the end of each week each profes sor makes a report to the Dean of such absences on the part of students as seem to call for the Dean's attention . In case a student has a proper explanation for absence from class, he should pre sent it either to the professor himself or to the Dean. Permission to be absent from College should be obtained from the Dean in advance.

Excuses for unexpected but necessary absences should be obtained from the Dean within a week from the date of such absence. Unexcused absences seriously reduce the scholastic standing of a student, and may cause failure on the work of the month or term. A student who systematically absents himself from class will be dropped from the College rolls . The Faculty regards this form of neglect of College duties as particularly serious, both because of its interference with scholastic standing and its detrimental effect on character.

RICHMOND COLLEGE CATALOGUE

CHANGE OF STUDY

If a student desires to make a change in his course of study he should make his application in person to the Dean, who will advise him in the matter. No student is permitted either to drop a study or to take up a study without the advice and approval of the Dean.

Application for a change in a course of study later than two weeks after the beginning of a term will not be granted except in rare cases and then only upon the payment of a fee of $r .oo.

RELIGIOUS SERVICES

Students have easy access to all the advantages afforded by the various city and suburban churches, with their Bible classes and Sunday schools. Prayer meetings conducted by the students themselves are held once, or oftener every week.

CHAPEL ASSEMBLY

For twenty minutes ( r r :oo to r r :20) each day, Monday to Friday inclusive, all classes are suspended for chapel assembly. Exercises are conducted by the President, Dean, or some other member of the Faculty; from time to time specially invited speakers may be heard on educational, civic, and religious themes. Attendance is required of all students in the College of Liberal Arts unless specially excused. Absences from chapel amounting to one-tenth of the number of assemblies each term are allowed.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS

LITERARY SOCIETIES

Two literary societies, known as the Mu Sigma Rho and the Philologian, are maintained by the students. They are provided with attractive halls on the top floor of the Administration Building, where they hold weekly meetings for declamation, debate, and other literary exercises. Besides the joint oratorical contest and the joint debate held in the spring each society holds at least one public debate during the session. A generous rivalry is maintained between the two organizations by the joint offer of an orator's medal and a writer's medal, and among the individual members by the offer in each society of a medal for declamation or improvement in debate, and for the best debater.

The literary societies hold membership in the Virginia State Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Association, which ~s composed of the societies of the leading colleges and universities of Virginia. The inter-collegiate oratorical contest is held annually in the late spring. Inter-collegiate debates are annually held between representatives of the College and representatives from other colleges in and out of Virginia.

STUDENT PUBLICATIONS

The following publications are issued by the students:

The Richmond College Messenger.-A monthly magazine published directly under the supervision of the literary societies and devoted to the development of literary activity among the students. In this periodical are published short stories, poems, essays, alumni news, and editorials on questions of local academic interest. This magazine has for over forty years maintained a high standard of literary excellence among college monthlies.

The Rich11iond Collegian.-This is a weekly paper, in which are published events of local interest to the students, social, ath-

letic, and personal. This new weekly paper has proved attractive not only to the members of the college community, but to the alumni as well.

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION

An active Young Men's Christian Association is maintained among the students. Its object is to promote the spiritual and moral welfare of the College and to stimulate to religious work in the College and in the city. The Association holds weekly meetings in the College Auditorium, which are addressed by representative students on vital topics of interest to college men, and from time to time by invited speakers from Richmond and elsewhere. The Association has as its headquarters a large room in the tower of Thomas Hall. This is comfortably furnished, provided with newspapers and other periodicals, and affords a convenient social center for the students. All students of the College are invited to make use of this room as a recreation center. The members of the Association conduct services or teach Bible classes at the City Hospital, the Confederate Soldiers' Home, the Locomotive Works, the Home for Incurables, and at several mission stations in the suburbs. A pleasant feature of the work in College is the arrangement made by the Association for meeting new students upon their arrival in Richmond and showing them many needful courtesies.

A council of nine members, made up of trustees, professors, alumni, and students has general charge of Y. M. C. A. activities. The general direction of the Association is in the hands of the College Y. M. C. A. Secretary, Mr. E. L. Ackiss.

In order to be eligible to the Arachnidre, a student must have maintained an average grade of 90 per cent. throughout the College course, he must be- long to the first sixth of the graduating class on the basis of scholarship, and he must have good character. Election is by the Faculty from a list of eligibles presented by a Faculty Committee of Phi Beta Kappa and Arachnidre men.

The Society of Arachnidre has been extended to include mem- bers from Westhampton College.

The elections for the year of r9r7 were as follows: Weston Bristow, H. A. Clopton, W. L. Davis, Moses Gellman, Gladys Holleman, V. S. Lawrence, W. R. Silvey, Florence Smith.

GENERAL INFORMATION

TERM REPORTS

To the parent or guardian is sent, at the end of each of the three te rms, a record of the student's class and examination standing, with such other information as may be deemed important. Whenever it may seem desirable more frequent reports are sent. By pro mpt and judicious attention on the part of those to whom they ar e addressed , these reports may be made of great vahte in promoting improvement and sustaining a just discipline.

CLASS STANDING AND EXAMINATIONS

Th e standing of students in classes and in examinations is indicated as follows: Students making a passing grade in any study are divided into three groups, designated by the letters A, B, C, respectively. The letter A opposite a student's name indicates that his work for the term including examination, has been of superior quality; B, that it has been excellent; C, that it has been good. The letter D indicates that his work has been unsatis factory, and that he is conditioned on the subject for the term; the condition may be removed and credit given if, in the judgment of the professor, his subsequent work for the year is approximately of the grade B. Grade E indicates failure.

Besides frequent oral and written tests, there are held in every class t hree general written examinations at the close of the fall, winter, and spring terms, respectively. All examinations are limited to three hours. Recitations and lectures are suspended during the examination period. The valuation of examination papers is equitably combined with the average of the student's class standing for the term. If this average is of C grade or higher , the student receives credit; if the average is of A or B grade, the student passes with distinction. A condition ( D) may be removed by special examination within the first ten days of the

RICHMOND COLLEGE CATALOGUE

following session. Only those students who attain at least the grade of C are entitled to points in the estimates for degrees. AIi candidates for CoIIege honors of any kind are expect ed to maintain at least the grade of C in their classes. This gra de is expected of every student who wishes to appear before the public in a representative capacity.

SPECIAL EXAMINATIONS

Special examinations during the current session, made neces- sary by absence from the regul a r examinations on account of sick- ness or other sufficient reason, may be granted only by vote of the Faculty upon the written request from the student. Special ex- aminations for removing conditions incurred in a former session may take place only within the first ten days of the CoIIege ses- sion. Students who have received the grade of E on any t erm may not absolve the requirements in this course by a special ex- amination, but must repeat the term's work.

For each special examination applied for in September for the removal of conditions, a fee of $1.00 is charged and the Tre as- urer's receipt for the fee must be presented to the professor be- fore the special examination will be given.

A schedule of special examinations for the removal of condi- tions will be posted by the Dean on the opening day of the session.

CLASS RATING OF STUDENTS

I. All first-year college students, who have the nece ssary entrance units, shaII be classed as Freshmen.

2. All second-year coIIege students, who as Freshmen have completed at least 12 hours of coIIege credit, shall be classed as Sophomores.

I. To applicants already at College, who have maintained a good standing, both in character and study.

II. To other fully prepared applicants who shall present satisfactory testimonials from the school last attended, or from other persons who have had opportunity to judge, certifying to their health, attainments, habits of study and moral character.

III. To those of either class who give reasonable assurance that they will complete a course of study leading to one of the degrees of the College .

WESTHAMPTON COLLEGE

A COLLEGE FOR WOMEN CO-ORDINATE WITH RICHMOND COLLEGE FOR MEN

FREDERICK WILLIAM BOATWRIGHT, LL. D.

PRESIDENT

MAY LANSFIELD KELLER, Ph. D. DEAN

The buildings of Westhampton College occupy \he highest part of a tract of land embracing 130 acres. Separated from this campus by a lake of about eight acres in extent are the spacious grounds of the college for men. The situation is in the western suburbs of Richmond, easily accessible by street cars.

Westhampton College is owned and controlled by the Richmond College corporation, and enjoys all the general advantages afforded by co-ordination with an old and well established college of standard grade. At the same time the college for women has its own separate campus, its own buildings, and its independent institutional life. While many professors will teach in both colleges, instruction will be altogether separate, and women will at no time be taught in classes with men. The internal administration of Westhampton College is immediately in charge of a woman dean, and both men and women teach in the faculty.

The grounds, buildings, and equipment of Westhampton College are valued at $400,000, and the college shares largely in the benefit of the million dollar endowment held by the Richmond College corporation. The buildings, of Gothic

RICHMOND COLLEGE CATALOGUE

architecture, are most substantially constructed. The framework is steel set in concrete. All floors are of reinforced concrete, and partitions are of brick or hollow tile. The stairways are of steel with slate treads, the window frames of concrete stone and the sash of bronze. The appointments throughout are of the very best. Safety, health, and comfort of students have everywhere been considered.

The same entrance requirements and t:he same standards apply in Westhampton College as in Richmond College, with which it is co-ordinate. The next session opens September 12, 1918. For special catalogue and other information, address
