The Department of Engineering:
The fee for each practice course in Drawing, Engineering Laboratories, and
Shop-work is $5.00 per term for each course, and in Field-work and Bridge
Drafting is $10.00 per term for each course. These fees include all charges
for laboratory materials; but the student is held responsible for breakage. For
fees in Physics and Chemistry, see above.
The university fee goes to the fund intended to defray the general expenses of the
University. Payment of this fee entitles the student, without additional charge, to the
use of the library; to the privileges of the gymnasium, with baths, private lockers, etc.,
and the advice and aid of the physical training staff, and to free medical attendance by
the University Physician in case of illness. It also covers all regular examination and
diploma fees.
College students from Virginia taking a single technical course in the Department of
Engineering pay a tuition of $60, or $20 per term.
Candidates for B.S. in Architecture, after the first year, are registered as professional
students in Architecture.
BOARD AND LODGING
A student may rent a room in one of the University dormitories and take
his meals either in the University Cafeteria or in an approved private boarding
house; or he may take both room and board in such boarding house, in
which case he pays no room-rent or servant-hire to the University. A list of
private boarding and lodging houses, with rates, may be had upon application
to the Bursar.
The University Cafeteria
The University Commons, conveniently situated near the center of the
University, is now being conducted on the Cafeteria plan, with accommodations
for seating three hundred students at one time. Good, wholesome food
is being served at costs ranging from $20 to $30 per month. Many of the
students are finding it possible to board at the lower rate.
University Dormitories
Rules.—Students desiring rooms should apply to the Bursar, enclosing a
reservation fee of $5, which will be returned should there be no room to let.
Rates.—The rates stated below are for furnished room.

enameled iron bed with comfortable springs and mattress, 1 chiffonier

APPROXIMATE SUMMARY OF NECESSARY EXPENSES
The figures in the following tables may be taken as fairly accurate approximations
of all necessary expenses for a session of nine months. As necessary
expenses are reckoned here university and tuition fees, laboratory fees, lodging,
board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling expenses, or pocket
money. For each department three estimates are given—a low, an average, and
a liberal estimate. The difference in the three depends on the difference of expenditure
for board, lodging, books, and laundry—in other words, on the scale
of living of the individual student. If a student shares a room with another student,
and practices the strictest economy, he may possibly reduce his expenses below
the low estimate.

Student Self-Help.—Every possible opportunity for obtaining remunerative
employment is afforded to students who are desirous of helping by this means to
pay their way through the University, and it may be safely stated that any student
with sufficient resources to carry him through the first half of the session, can be
reasonably sure of obtaining work which will pay a considerable part of his living
expenses and university charges for the remainder of the academic year. While it
is difficult for any student to be assured of remunerative work before he reaches
the University, information as to such employment may be had from the secretary
of the Committee on Student Self-Help, Madison Hall.
Loans will be provided for deserving students. See page 152.
