UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA ARMY SCHOOL

Under an arrangement with the United States Government, the University
of Virginia will conduct, during the summer, an Army School for
the training of motor truck drivers and chauffeurs. There will be

600 drafted men in regular attendance. They will occupy separate
barracks which have been erected on the old Athletic Field to accommodate
them. No one but drafted men will be admitted to the
courses of instruction, but the presence of 600 soldiers during the
summer session should add interest. Students of the Summer School
desiring this work can take the Course in Automobile Construction,
see page 17.

REGULATIONS CONCERNING CREDIT.—The instructor giving
each course will keep the class grades, and attendance, hold the examination,
and average the class grade with the examination grade,
returning to the Director the general average grade of each student
in each course. Absences or delayed entrance will be counted against
the student. All examinations must be held under the Honor System.
A certificate for each course completed with an average grade
of 75 per cent will be signed by the instructor and the Director of
the Summer School, and mailed to the student.

Credit Allowed by Other States than Virginia.—Application has
been made to other Southern States for credit equal to that accorded
by the Virginia Department of Public Instructions. Credits are now
allowed toward the extension of the certificates by certain other
States. All persons wishing to arrange for credits with their respective
school authorities should correspond with the Director of
the Summer School.

University of Virginia College Credit.—Below are stated the conditions
upon which credit in the Universty of Virginia may be granted
for work done in the Summer School.

(a) The student must satisfy the entrance requirements of the University
of Virginia and matriculate before he can receive credit in
the College for any work done in the University of Virginia Summer
School.

(b) The Dean of the College will accept the completion of the
courses in the Summer School in lieu of the entrance examinations
in the same subject, provided that in his judgment the courses are
equivalent to those required for entrance to the University of Virginia,
and provided, that the certificates of courses completed be approved
by the University of Virginia professor concerned.

(c) The Dean of the College will accept certificates of completion
of summer courses in the University of Virginia, provided that such
summer courses be approved by the University of Virginia professor
concerned as the full equivalent in character and scope of the corresponding
courses in the University.

All courses numbered from 1 to 100 in this catalogue have been
approved by the professors concerned and will be accepted by the
Dean for such credit as is indicated in the description of each course.

(d) Students who satisfy entrance requirements will not only receive
credit at the University of Virginia for college courses taken in
the Summer School, but the summer school work is recognized by
standard colleges everywhere, so that students have no difficulty in
securing transfer of credits.

Honor System.—All examinations are held under the honor system
and the honor pledge required.
