ANNOUNCEMENTS.

The session will begin Tuesday, June 19, and close Thursday, August 2,
1917. Tuesday, June 19, will be devoted to the registration of students. All
students should register on this day. No certificate will be granted to
students who fail to register before Tuesday, June 26.

FEES.

For Non-Virginia Students.—A single registration fee of fifteen dollars
will be charged each non-Virginia student. This fee will entitle the student
to enter any of the courses outlined in the catalogue, except a few special
courses which are so designated. No student, however, will be allowed to
take more than three advanced courses or six elementary courses without
special permission in writing from the Director.

For Virginia Students.—Students from Virginia who are not teachers
or preparing to teach next session will be charged the same tuition as nonVirginia
students.

Tuition will be entirely free to all Virginia teachers in all the regular
courses, both elementary and advanced, leading to the professional and first
grade certificates. To meet local expenses the State Board of Education has
fixed a registration fee of $1.00 for a four weeks' term and $1.50 for a six
weeks' term for all the Summer Schools of the State, and these fees will be
charged here. There are a few special courses offered to meet certain demands
but not necessary for certificate credit, for which fees will be charged. The
fee for each is designated in the catalogue. Small fees in laboratory courses
will also be charged all students who register in them.

CREDITS

Certificates will be granted in each course of the University Department
to those students who attain a grade of 75 per cent. This grade will be the
average of the recitation and examination marks. No students will be permitted
to take more than three courses for the Summer School Professional
Certificate—Advanced Grade, or for University credit, without the permission
of the Director.

University of Virginia College Credit.—College credit in the University
of Virginia may be obtained on the following courses: Astronomy 1 and 2;

credit is granted are as follows:

(a) The student must satisfy the entrance examination requirements of

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 and the professor in charge of the School
in which credit is desired will accept certificates of completion of summer
courses in lieu of "A" 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
"A" courses in the University.

(d) Certificates of completion of certain summer courses approved by
the Academic Faculty will be accepted in lieu of portions of "B" courses,
provided that in each case the Dean of the College, the Faculty Committee
on Rules and Courses, and the professor in charge of the courses for which
credit is desired certify in writing that the summer courses completed are
equivalent in character and scope to that portion of the regular sessional
work for which credit is desired.

(e) The character of the examinations and the numerical standard (75
per cent) required for their successful completion shall be the same as
those of the sessional examinations.

(f) Courses which satisfy the conditions above stated will be credited
toward the B.A. and B.S. degrees offered in the College of the University
as follows:

1. Courses in which not less than thirty (30) hours of lecture instruction
are given will be credited as one session-hour.

2. Courses in which not less than thirty hours of lecture instruction
and not less than sixty (60) hours of laboratory instruction are given will be
credited as two session-hours.

Credits in Other Colleges.—The work of the Summer School is recognized
by standard colleges everywhere, so that students who satisfy the
entrance requirements have no difficulty in securing transfer of credits.

VIRGINIA STATE CERTIFICATES.

Teachers outside of Virginia are not bound in the choice of their courses
by the conditions under which Virginia certificates are issued, unless they
desire to teach in Virginia and apply for a certificate issued in this State.
In this case only state certificates from other States issued by a state superintendent
or a state board of examiners, and approved in advance by the
Department of Public Instruction of Virginia, will be recognized as a proper
basis for professional work.

Teachers from other States will receive credit for all work done at the
University Summer School in accordance with the certificate regulations of
those States from which they come.

The following general conditions must be fulfilled by all applicants
before they can enter upon the work for the Summer-School Professional
Certificate Advanced Grade, or High-School Grade. The applicant must be
the holder of a Virginia first-grade certificate or of a Virginia first-grade
high-school certificate and must have had at least five months of actual
teaching experience. When necessary, the certificate which entitles the
teacher to enter upon the summer school professional courses may be
revived or extended for one year from time to time provided that part of
the professional course prescribed for the year is successfully completed.
No certificate which has expired can be revived for more than one year upon
the basis of completing any one year of professional work.

No credit can be allowed for the Summer-School Professional Certificate
except for work completed at a registered college or normal school in Virginia
and in those of equal grade outside of Virginia whose courses have
been approved and registered by the State Board of Education.

The Summer-School Professional Certificate—High School Grade, entitles
the holder to teach all the elementary branches, but only the high-school branches
named in the certificate.

General Requirements.—The courses prescribed in any of the branches
hereinafter stated for the Summer-School Professional Certificate—High-School
Grade, must embrace no work unless it be of College Grade, requiring
minimum recitation periods of sixty minutes each. These courses must
be taken in a summer school at a registered college or university and must
be completed within a period of three years from the date of beginning. In
all cases a statement of each professor under whom the course is pursued,
to the effect that the applicant is highly proficient in his branch must accompany
the final report.

The following "Content Table" gives the number of hours or recitation
periods required in each branch, and in addition thereto the applicant must
complete a course of thirty hours in educational psychology and the principles
of teaching.

This certificate shall continue in force for seven years, and may be
renewed for a similar period from time to time.

N. B.—This course must not be given at any school in Virginia unless
it is specially mentioned and advertised in its literature; no supposedly equal
course at any other than a designated summer school will be recognized or
accepted by the Department of Public Instruction.

This certificate entitles the holder to teach both high and elementary
school branches.

TEACHERS' POSITIONS.

The University Bureau of Appointments receives demands for teachers
each year, and would be glad to have well qualified teachers who are in
attendance upon the Summer School leave their application with the Director,
who is a member of the Bureau.

EXPENSES.

Board and Rooms.—Board and rooms may be had at prices ranging from
$4 per week, where several stay in the same room, upward, according to
accommodations and proximity to the University, the average being $4.50 to
$5.50 per week. Many of the boarding houses immediately adjoin the university
grounds.

One hundred single rooms and one hundred and twenty-five double
rooms in the University dormitories will be reserved in the order of application
upon the following terms: The price will be $5.00 for the full term
of six weeks for a single room, and $8.00 for a room which will accommodate
two. No reduction will be made for parts of a term. Applications for
rooms must be accompanied with the full amount of the fee in order to have
them reserved. The amount of the fee will be returned for good reason and
room released if application is made before June 10th. No rooms will be

rented to any person who does not register and pay the fee in the Summer
School.

Reduced Railway Rates.—All students coming to the Summer School
from points within the territory covered by the Southeastern Passenger
Association, i. e., the territory lying south of the Potomac and east of the
Mississippi, should apply to the local agent for reduced rates some time in
advance. In case the agent has received no instructions to sell reduced rate
tickets to Charlottesville, Virginia, the applicant should write promptly to
the Director of the Summer School, or Mr. Joseph Richardson, Secretary
Southeastern Passenger Association, Atlanta, Ga.

ENTERTAINMENTS.

A Musical Festival and other entertainments will be announced during
the session of the Summer School. The Coburn Players last session presented
three plays: Richard III., The Rivals, and The Tempest. The
Clifford Devereux Company gave three plays: She Stoops to Conquer, The
Scarecrow, and A Comedy of Errors. The Ernest Gamble Concert Party,
one recital; Mme. Permella Gale, one recital; Mary Sherier Bowie, one
recital. Negotiations are pending for a number of high-class attractions
for the session of 1917. The whole course includes about twenty numbers
and the price of a season ticket is $2.50, making the cost about the same
as moving pictures.
