ANNOUNCEMENTS.

The University of Virginia Summer School is conducted primarily
for teachers and students in high schools, academies and colleges and
for those who desire professional training for primary and grammar
grade work. It takes as its peculiar province, not the ordinary summer
institute, but the solid and substantial training of high school
teachers, college teachers, college students, and teachers who either
have professional and life certificates or wish to procure them. Because
the courses of instruction in high schools are not clearly defined
but merge into the grammar grades below and into the lower
college classes above, the high school offers itself as a strategic center
around which to build up instruction, the emphasis of which is
upon subject matter. The justification of such a summer school for
high school teachers is the unusual activity in the South just now in
behalf of secondary education. The large number of high school and
college teachers attending the Summer School last year is an additional
proof of the need of such a school. There were 1,350 regularly
registered students in the session of 1911 besides a large number of
visitors.

LOCATION.—Charlottesville, the seat of the University of Virginia,
is in a picturesque and healthful situation among the foot-hills
of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It is at the junction of two great lines
of railway, the Chesapeake & Ohio and the Southern, and is thus of
easy access from every part of the country. The sanitary arrangements
of the University are excellent. The climate is invigorating,
healthful, and free from malarial conditions, the average elevation of
the surrounding country being about six hundred and fifty feet above
sea level; the water supply is pure, being drawn by gravity from a
mountain reservoir six miles away; the system of drains and sewers
is complete. One mile from the University is an excellent iron
spring connected with the Jefferson Park Hotel, a much frequented
resort.

LABORATORIES AND MUSEUMS.—The equipment possessed
by the University for the work of instruction, alike in academic and
in the professional departments, has been much augmented in recent
years, and is now excellent in quality, as well as extensive. In scientific
studies large facilities are offered by the Rouss Physical Laboratory,
the Chemical Laboratory and the Museum of Industrial Chemistry,
the Lewis Brooks Museum, the Biological Laboratory.

THE GENERAL LIBRARY.—The General Library is open to
the corps of instructors and the students of the Summer School from
9 A. M. to 1:30 P. M., 3 to 5, and from 7:30 to 10 P. M. The collection
contains about seventy thousand volumes, including the standard
books of history, literature, and science, and is particularly rich in
materials for the study of education and other social subjects. The
reference section is well supplied with encyclopædias and other
sources of information.

All books withdrawn from the library must be charged at the desk.
Usually books are lent for one week but there are exceptions, and the
loan expires on the date stamped in the book. Prompt return not
later than the date on which the loan expires is expected and borrowers
will be fined ten cents for each day delinquent. Students are
expected to give prompt attention to all communications from the librarian.


11

Page 11
Volumes in the reference collection are not available to borrowers
but may be freely consulted in the library, and works in current
general use in connection with any course of instruction will be
temporarily placed on reference and made subject to this rule. All
bound magazines are classed as reference books.

REST AND STUDY ROOMS.—Madison Hall, the beautiful new
building of the Young Men's Christian Association, which was recently
erected at a cost of seventy-five thousand dollars, will be open
to students of the Summer School from nine o'clock in the morning
until ten at night. Students will have access to the current periodicals
in the reading room during the day and until ten at night. The
other rooms will be used for rest, for study, for recreation, and for
social gatherings. North of the building there are nineteen tennis
courts which will be equipped for the use of the students.

DAILY GENERAL ASSEMBLY.—Daily from 11:30 to 12:15
there will be a period, in which the students may have the privilege
of attending a gathering of the entire body. At this time there will
be short addresses on interesting topics, by prominent speakers invited
for this purpose, and a brief prayer and song service. Generally
the singing will be choral, under the direction of the instructor
of music, but occasionally, as opportunity offers, prominent soloists
will be procured.

SUNDAY VESPER SERVICES.—Experience has shown that no
Sunday Chapel service held here during the summer has been more
attractive or more appreciated than what has sometimes been called
the Sunset Service. Holding this service at this hour enables all the
faculty and the students of the summer school to unite in one common
service without at all interfering with their attending the
churches of their choice in the city. This service, which will always
be kept within one hour, will begin at seven o'clock. It will consist
of congregational singing and a brief address by some prominent
minister or layman. The pipe organ used in this service is the work
of one of the best organ makers in the country, and is admirably
adapted, both in size and tone, for church purposes.

RECREATION.—Provision has been made to keep the Fayerweather
Gymnasium open for regularly registered students during
the summer, under the control of a competent gymnasium director,
who will give daily systematic instruction in physical culture. No
fee will be charged for these courses nor for the use of the gymnasium,
and it is hoped that every student will come prepared to
take advantage of the physical training courses. A portion of each
day set apart to systematic physical development will be profitably
spent. The swimming pool and baths will be at the service of the
students. The tennis courts belonging to Madison Hall will also be
kept in readiness, duly marked and with nets in place. The splendid
athletic field, one of the finest in the South, with base-ball ground
and quarter mile running track, will be at the disposal of those who
wish to engage in the manly sports. Within three minutes' walk
from the Academic Building, the woods may be reached. These
woods and the neighboring mountains furnish ample opportunity for
pleasant strolls or for longer tramps on the part of those more
vigorous. One of these walks leads to Fry's Spring, a most efficacious
chalybeate spring, which may also be reached by street car.

EXCURSIONS.—Under the directorship of a competent guide,
there will be excursions to neighboring points of interest such as


12

Page 12
Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson; the Natural Bridge; Luray
Cavern; the Grottoes of the Shenandoah; the battle fields in Virginia;
and any other points to which a sufficiently large number may care
to go. The proximity to Washington and Richmond (three hours
ride to each) should make a visit to either exceptionally interesting.
Saturdays will be reserved for these excursions. On all clear nights
parties will leave Cabell Hall at 8 o'clock to visit the McCormick Astronomical
Observatory, where they will be shown the stars through
the large telescope in the Observatory.

ORGAN RECITALS, ENTERTAINMENTS, AND LECTURES.
—The pipe organ in Cabell Hall is one of the best products of one of
the largest organ manufacturers in America. It is an antiphonal organ
with fifteen hundred pipes, and exhibits all the possibilities of
organ manufacture. To bring out these possibilities requires a master
organist, and it is the purpose of the management of the Summer
School to procure distinguished organists for the recitals.

A Musical Festival and other entertainments will be announced
during the session of the Summer School.

RURAL LIFE WEEK.—The time between July 15th and July
20th will be devoted to the study of problems of rural life in general,
and rural school problems in particular. The discussions will center
around the large topics of better educational facilities for rural communities;
better means of communication; improved methods of cooperation;
the improvement of sanitary conditions; good roads; etc.
Especial emphasis is to be placed on woman's work in the country,
and the country preacher. Distinguished speakers from all sections
of the United States will participate in these conferences.

There has been no more helpful, interesting, and vital enterprise
connected with the Summer School than this conference. It is of
interest not only to the students attending the Summer School, but
to county superintendents, progressive farmers, and citizens' improvement
leagues. The proceedings of the Conference for last year
were published and distributed and there was a wide-spread demand
for copies. Many similar conferences have been organized as the result
of this one.

SUPERINTENDENTS' CONFERENCE.—Beginning June 24th
and ending July 6th, there will be held a conference for county and
city superintendents. This will be more of a school than a conference
because regularly organized work will be offered and a full
course of instruction in school administration and its related problems
will be provided. Besides regular members of the Summer
School faculty, a number of the most successful superintendents of
the country will be secured as instructors in this course. Among
others, Miss Jessie Field, superintendent of schools, of Page County,
Iowa, will spend a week telling of her methods of work.

A detailed program will be mailed later to any superintendent who
will write for it.

TEACHERS' POSITIONS.—The University Appointment Committee
receives demands for teachers each year. This Committee
would be glad to have well qualified teachers who are in attendance
upon the Summer School leave their applications with the Director,
who is a member of the Committee.

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


13

Page 13
the Potomac and east of the Mississippi, should apply some time in
advance to the local agent for reduced rates. At a meeting of the
Conference Committee of the Southeastern Passenger Association,
the individual lines announced that they would authorize fares for
the University Summer School on a basis of approximately three
cents a mile plus 25 for the round trip. In case the agent has received
no instructions for selling reduced rate tickets to Charlottesville,
Virginia, the applicant should write promptly to the Director
of the Summer School. Reduced rate tickets can be bought only on
one of the following dates. June 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 24th and 25th,
and July 2nd and 3rd.

The Southern Railway Company, the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway
Company, the Norfolk and Western Railway Company, and
all railways within this territory will co-operate in the sale of these
reduced rate tickets. Application has also been made to the Trans-Continental
Passenger Association for similar rates, from the territory
west of the Mississippi, and teachers coming from the western
states should write to the Director of the Summer School for
instructions. In Virginia reduced rate tickets will be on sale at all
railroad stations.

Announcement of dates will be made later by the Department of
Public Instruction. Application has been made to have them correspond
with the above.

BOARD AND ROOMS.—Board and room may be had at prices
ranging from $4.00 per week, where several stay in the same room,
upwards, according to accommodations and proximity to the University,
the average being $4.50 to $5.00 per week. Many of the
boarding houses immediately adjoin the University grounds.

One hundred and seventy-five single rooms and fifty double rooms
in the University dormitories will be reserved in the order of application
upon the following terms: The price will be $4.50 for the
full term of six weeks for a single room, and $7.00 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. Rooms that are reserved will not be held later than July
1st. No room will be open for occupancy before June 18th. Each
room is lighted by electricity and will contain one bed, one mattress,
one pillow, one chiffonier, one table, one rocking chair, one straight
chair. Wash stands and toilet sets will be provided where necessary.
Roomers must provide themselves with necessary bed-clothes, towels,
etc. The Randall Building, East and West Lawns and East and
West Ranges will be reserved exclusively for ladies and will be under
the charge of an experienced matron and chaperone. Some member
of the faculty will be located in each set of dormitories. The
rooms on Dawson's Row will be reserved for men. The location of
these dormitories in the University grounds and the social advantages
resulting from bringing so many teachers close together make this
arrangement a very desirable one and the rooms are eagerly sought.

The University Commons, the handsome new dining-hall, will be
open for summer students and will provide table board for three hundred
and fifty persons at the very low price of $3.50 week. Those
occupying the dormitories are expected to take their meals at the
Commons.

Application for dormitory rooms should be sent promptly, with
retaining fee, to Mr. P. M. Chichester, University, Virginia.

For list of boarding houses, rates, see page 59.

TIME AND PLACE OF RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.
Recitations will begin in all courses Thursday, June 20th, at 8:30 A.
M. Students should present themselves at the first meeting of their
classes with the required text-books and be prepared with tablets to
take notes on introductory lectures. There will be no classes on
Saturday unless arranged for by individual instructors, except possibly
on Saturday, July 6th, when classes will meet at the usual hour.
The length of recitation will be one hour, ten minutes of which will
be allowed for transfer from one room to another. Wednesday, July
31, Thursday and Friday, August 1st and 2nd, will be used for examinations;
the determination being to provide for six full weeks of recitation
over and above registration and examination days.

Following the outline of each course in this announcement will be
found the time and place of meeting for each class. The courses outlined
will be given as scheduled. Students should therefore follow
the schedule in selecting courses that will not conflict. It is well for
the student to select such courses from this catalogue before the
opening of the Summer School, so that little delay may be experienced
in registration. The Summer School lecture rooms are for the
most part restricted to five buildings—Cabell Hall, Rouss Physical
Laboratory, Mechanical Laboratory, Rotunda and the Law Building.

REGISTRATION.—Wednesday, June 19th, will be devoted to the
registration of students. All students who can possibly do so should
register on this day. Those who fail to register before June 20th
will be permitted to attend classes and register as promptly as possible
at other hours until June 24th. The Registrar's office, located
in the southeast rooms of the Rotunda, will be open continuously
June 19th, 20th, and 21st, from 8:30 a. m. until 6:30 p. m. Students
should consult freely with members of the Faculty in case of difficulty
in choosing courses. No certificate will be granted to students
who fail to register before Wednesday, June 26th, except a certificate
of attendance. Students preparing to stand the examination for
teachers' certificates held at this place by the State Department of
Public Instruction, July 1st and August 1st and 2nd, may enter at
any time during the session.

Promptly at 9:30 Wednesday morning, June 19th, all applicants
for registration will assemble in Cabell Hall for instructions in regard
to filling out their cards, the location of lecture rooms, and for
consultation with members of the faculty in regard to the courses of
study they desire to pursue, or any other matters upon which information
is desired.

The form of registration will be as follows: Each student upon
application will receive a card with space for name and address, and
for courses to be taken. This card should be presented to the Registrar,
after it has been filled out, for purposes of filing. In exchange
for it the student will receive two cards filled out and signed by the
Registrar. These cards should then be presented to the Bursar, together
with the fee for each course. The Bursar will sign and return
one card to the student, who should present it to the instructors
in charge of the courses prescribed on the card. The student, after
presenting the card to the various instructors for enrollment in the
classes, will retain the same as a receipt from the Bursar, and for future
use. No student will be admitted to any course without a registration


15

Page 15
card naming the course in question and properly signed by
the Registrar and the Bursar.

In registering, students must state upon the registration card what
credit, if any, is desired, as arrangements for credit must be made
before taking the courses. No course may be counted toward a certificate
without the consent of the Director or Registrar, and instructors
will not admit students to any course not mentioned on their
registration cards, which must be signed by the Registrar and the
Bursar to be valid.

FEES.—No registration fee will be charged.

A tuition fee of five dollars will be charged for admission to each
course in the groups denominated
on page 18 as receiving University
credit or credit on the Summer School Professional Certificate or
credit on the Special Certificate.

A single fee of ten dollars will be charged for the courses (not
more than five) taken in one summer from the group counting towards
the Professional Elementary Certificate—Grammar Grades—
or the Professional Elementary Certificate Primary Grades—respectively,
to all students from other states than Virginia.

The Department of Public Instruction of Virginia has provided by
special appropriation that Virginia teachers shall pay only six dollars
for the courses (not more than five) from these groups.

A single fee of six dollars will be charged for the courses (not
more than six) taken from the group of elementary courses which
prepare for the First Grade Certificate examination, to all students
from other States than Virginia. The Department of Public Instruction
of Virginia has provided by special appropriation that Virginia
teachers shall pay only three dollars for the courses (not more than
six) selected from this group.

Students not desiring credit will be charged at the same rate.

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. 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.
When all of the certificates issued by the Director, which are required
for any State certificate applied for, have been received, the
Department of Public Instruction should be notified, and the appropriate
state certificate will be issued in exchange for the individual
certificates noted above. Notice of the completion of courses counted
towards University credit should be made to the Registrar of the
University of Virginia.

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 Instruction. Credits
are now allowed toward the extension of the certificates by certain
other States. Some States authorize the University Summer School
instructors to hold State examinations. In other States arrangements
may be made upon application of the teachers from those
States. All persons wishing to arrange for credits with their respective
school authorities should correspond with the Director of
the Summer School.

FIELD BOTANY.

The outline projected is intended to give to the student a systematized
course of study, making it an easy and agreeable task for him
to identify the various plant families in his locality and acquire methods
of study by which children may identify and become familiar
with the individual plants of their neighborhood.

At the beginning of the course attention will be given to plant
morphology and physiology, but the course will be of a practical
character and performed in the fields and forests near the University
where the plant life is diversified and rich in both indigenous and imported
varieties, furnishing exceptional opportunities for the purpose.


24

Page 24

During the term each student will, under direction, collect, identify,
mount, and preserve, characteristic types, so that he will have
commenced the accumulation of an herbarium for use in his teaching,
and to which he can continually add specimens from his own locality
or that in which he is teaching.

The results of the work contemplated should be of great value to
the State, not only for its educational influence, but also for its economic
importance as well. It would be fair to assume that with the
teachers followed by their pupils working out the plants of all parts
of the Commonwealth, it would only be a brief period until, from the
collaboration of these collections, a complete and systematic symposium
of Virginia's flora would be available, and the information now
limited to a few, and possessing only scientific importance, would become
common knowledge and acquire economic value, influencing
agriculture, horticulture, and many important manufacturing industries.

The hours for daily exercises will be arranged as far as possible
so that they will not conflict with other courses taught in the Summer
School.

Daily, from 5:30 to 6:30. Professor Lambeth. Rotunda, Room 3.

Text-Book.—Gray's Manual of Botany.

Certificate Credit.—Summer School Professional Certificate; Special
Certificate.

designed to meet the needs of those who may have to give instruction
in chemistry in high schools. A daily discussion of the elementary
principles of the science will be held and simple lecture table
demonstrations made.

Daily, from 10:30 to 11:30. Professor Bird. West Range Laboratory.

2. Laboratory Course for High School Teachers.—The sole object
of this course is to train each member of the class to give laboratory
instruction in secondary schools; the situation that is likely to confront
each one will be considered individually. The following topics
will be discussed: the particular branches of the subject which should
be taught high school students; the apparatus and chemicals necessary
and their cost; how to equip a laboratory and how to make the
best use of facilities likely to be found in a high school. It is
planned to have the teacher perform, under the eye of the instructor,
all experiments that the pupils should perform and such demonstration
experiments as seem desirable. Special attention will be given to
the fitting up of apparatus at a nominal cost, and the apparatus thus
assembled may be taken away for future use. The essential pedagogic
points of the experiments will be discussed fully and an effort
made to show the teacher how to instill life into the laboratory work
of the pupil, by pointing out its practical bearing. The chief emphasis
will be laid upon the essential phenomena and laws of matter
changes, especially those of daily occurrence.

Daily, 2 hours before 2 P. M. Professor Edgar. West Range
Laboratory.

CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY.

It will be the aim of the courses in Latin and Greek to open to all
teachers and students the advantages of University instruction in


26

Page 26
those subjects. Courses 1-4 are especially intended to illustrate the
teaching of Latin in the secondary schools. Courses 5-7 are intended
to open to teachers and summer students the more important fields
of college Latin. The desirability of a knowledge of Greek and of at
least one Romanic language is specially commended to all who wish
to reap the full cultural and scientific benefit of the college courses
in Latin. Greece is the fountain head of European culture, and Rome
its universalizer and transmitter to the modern world. The instruction
will aim to exhibit these relations and thus to emphasize the
unity and continuity of all human culture. Course 1 is preparatory.
Thereafter the work is organized in all courses as follows: Latin
language—systematic study of Latin grammar, with oral and written
exercises in prose composition; Latin literature—systematic study of
the Latin authors, as nearly as possible in culture-historical sequence;

DRAWING.

The classes in drawing are planned to give the teachers of the
primary, grammar and high-school grades and supervisors of drawing,
a practical knowledge of drawing as now taught in the most modern
and progressive schools. The purpose will be to give not only facility
in representation but to teach the fundamentals that underlie design,
composition, pictorial and imaginative drawing. More emphasis will
be placed on composition than on representation and every step will
be taken up in turn and definite ways suggested for use in the school
room with each lesson.

An attempt will be made to suit the courses to the needs of all applicants
and especially to the needs of those teachers who fancy they
cannot draw.

Drawing 1.—This course is intended for the teachers of grades
from one to four, inclusive. This is so arranged that the lessons will
be in progressive order, following as closely as possible the development
of the child. The classes will be conducted in the following
manner: First, the careful explanation of design, its intent and
processes: Second, an exhibition of fine examples of work by teachers
and children who have already taken the course: Third, processes
carried out by the class under the supervision of instructors.

design, those who wish to do special work in decoration, or those
who find themselves weak in that department of the general course.
Its aim is to give a complete understanding of the principles of
design, etc., practical application of the design to the material in
which it is to be reproduced, and the technical skill necessary to
render the design.

First Year—Border design in light and dark, surface pattern colors,
simple color scales, block printing, textile design. Second Year
—Color harmony, practice in color scales, animals and design, human
figures in design, wall paper (surface design), interior arrangement,
architectural design.

Daily from 4:30 to 5:30. Professor Bement and Miss Shepard.
Mechanical Laboratory, Room 2.

Drawing 5.—This course is intended for the teachers of ungraded
schools and aims to give them as much training in the fundamental
principles that underlie Courses 1, 2 and 3 as the time will permit.
The teacher will be given in a condensed form the sequence in all the
grades. Each step will be explained and demonstrated by the instructor,
but only the most important ones will be carried out in
class. An attempt will be made to study the needs of the individual
teacher. Thus the inexperienced draftsman will be given an opportunity
to devote as much time to drawing as he needs, while the advanced
student will have opportunity to develop his creative ability
and study the simple manual training and outline the work of the
grades.

First Year—Drawing of simple objects, spacing, line, mass, color;
original design of useful objects, mat; school bag; table cover, etc.,
simple manual training, wood-cutting, sewing, stamping.

Public Instruction as required reading for teachers for 1911-1912. The
members of the class will be expected to own copies of these texts and
to use them in preparation for class discussion. One of the purposes of
the course is to prepare teachers to take a leading part in reading
circles and institutes in their counties or cities. Some of the subjects

4. Problems and Principles of Secondary Education.—In this
course some of the topics to be considered will be: the function of
the high school and the direction of its activities towards the solution
of its peculiar problems; the relation of the high school to the
elementary school and college; recent tendencies in public high
schools; high school discipline; adolescence and its bearing upon high
school problems; obligations and relations to social needs; support
of high schools; examination, grading, promotion and similar problems
of high school supervision; school practice in foreign schools
as compared with that of American schools; a brief sketch of the history
of secondary education in America so far as it bears upon present-day
problems.

designed to meet the needs of principals and teachers responsible
for the construction and administration of high school
curricula. The chief topics for discussion will be: the function of the
high school in its relation to other institutions of learning, to the
pupils, and to society; educational aims; educational values; the place
and importance of each subject in the curriculum, the relative worth
of the topics within the several subjects; time allotments to topics;
constants; electives; construction of curricula and daily schedules;
the qualifications and equipment of high school teachers; the peculiar
characteristics and needs of high school pupils; the high school
of the immediate future.

Text-Book.—Brown's The American High School.

Daily, from 8:30 to 9:30. Professor Hand. Law Building, Room 2.

6. Educational Psychology and the Principles of Teaching.—Inasmuch
as the principles of teaching are based upon a working knowledge
of the fundamental processes of consciousness the first half of
this course is devoted to the study of the facts of mental growth and
development as presented in Thorndike's Elements of Psychology
with special emphasis upon that portion of the text dealing with
Functional Psychology. To control human nature the teacher needs
to know it. The second half of this course is devoted to studying
how the teacher may best produce and prevent changes in his pupils
and thus preserve and increase the desirable qualities of body, intellect
and character and get rid of the undesirable. Since the basis
of a mind's action—the starting point of the life of intellect, feeling
and conduct—is its equipment of instincts and capacities, its native
or unlearned tendencies; especial emphasis is put upon the study of
the methods of their control and utilization for ideal ends. Since the
mind assimilates knowledge by means of knowledge already acquired
many detailed applications of the General Law of Apperception are
presented and discussed. Other subjects for study and discussion
are: Interest; Individual Differences; Attention; Habit Formation;
Memory; Analysis; Reasoning; Moral Training; and Formal Discipline.

Text-Books.—Thorndike's Elements of Psychology; Thorndike's
Principles of Teaching.

Daily, from 9:30 to 10:30. Professor Martin. Law Building, Room 3.

7. History of Modern Education.—A very brief review will be

ideals first up to the Reformation, then from the Reformation to the
opening of the nineteenth century. The main study in the course


35

Page 35
will be confined to the period from the year 1800 to the present.
Special attention will be given to the inseparable relationship between
education and other institutional factors in national life, showing
that educational ideals and educational systems are at the same
time causes and results. Emphasis will be placed upon the present
educational ideals, aims, and tendencies in the United States.

Text-Book.—Monroe's Brief Course in the History of Education.

Daily, from 10:30 to 11:30. Professor Hand. Law Building,

ENGLISH.

The courses in English are designed to meet the needs of the following
groups of students: present or prospective high school teachers;
professional or technical students who have entered upon their
professional courses and found that their training in English is so
defective as to interfere with their prospects in their chosen professions;
students preparing for college entrance examinations; students
conditioned on their entrance examinations or in their college
courses at other institutions; college professors and instructors who
may be especially interested in methods of teaching English; teachers
in elementary schools who are interested in language study for
small children. It is desirable that all students of English take advantage
of the work in composition, upon which special emphasis
will be laid. Private conferences for criticism and personal supervision
of theme writing will be arranged for by the instructor.

1. English Grammar and Composition.—This course is designed
especially for high school teachers. No subjects in the high school
curriculum are more unsettled than those of grammar and composition,
both being in a transitive stage. The multiplication of high
schools in the South has called attention afresh to the importance of
English but there is still little uniformity in methods of teaching it.
An attempt will be made to suggest standards of instruction in grammar
and composition.

Text-Books.—Meiklejohn's English Grammar (D. C. Heath & Co.);
Joyne's Notes on the Parts of Speech (R. L. Bryan Co.).

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15. Professor Wauchope. Cabell Hall,
Room 3.

2. Rhetoric and Composition.—The purpose of this course is
three-fold: first, to master as far as possible the subject matter of
the text-book, and in doing this to emphasize particularly accuracy
and correctness in writing; second, to indicate the best methods of
teaching this subject in the schools so as to interest the pupils and


39

Page 39
induce them to take advantage of local material and opportunities;
third, to encourage among teachers and pupils alike good reading
both for its own sake and specifically for the sake of mental discipline.
Short themes will frequently be called for and several longer
papers required. Weekly personal conferences will be held at hours
to be appointed.

Text-Books.—Espenshade's Composition and Rhetoric (D. C. Heath);
Nutter, Hersey, and Greenough's Specimens of Prose Composition
(Ginn & Co.).

Daily, from 9:30 to 10:30. Professor Myers. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

3. English Literature.—This course is a general survey of the
history of English literature from Milton to Tennyson. Special
emphasis will be laid on the writings that are adapted to high school
work and more specifically on college entrance requirements. An
attempt will be made to give suggestions for future work in all the
periods.

Text-Books.—Any edition of the classics suggested above; any
good history of English literature (preferably Pancoast's) and
Manly's English Poetry.

Daily, from 3:30 to 4:30. Professor Mims. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

4. American Literature.—This course is a study of the lives and
writings of the principal authors from Washington Irving to Mark
Twain. It will consider the various aspects of American life as they
have found expression in literature. Special attention will be given
to the literature of New England.

Text-Books.—Pancoast's Introduction to American Literature (Henry
Holt & Co.); Page's Chief American Poets (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.).

Daily, from 4:30 to 5:30. Professor Metcalf. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

5. Southern Literature.—This course is intended for undergraduates
who desire to inform themselves about Southern literature
either as a matter of general culture or for the prospect of teaching
this subject in the schools. It will be a general survey of the intellectual
and literary life of the South from 1607 to the present day.
The course will be conducted mainly by lectures and class assignments,
but parallel reading and occasional written reports will be
required.

Text-Books.—Holliday's History of Southern Literature; Mims and
Payne's Southern Prose and Poetry. Constant reference will be made
to the Library of Southern Literature.

Daily, from 10:30 to 11:30. Professor Mims. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

6. Shakespeare.—The work of this course embraces a critical study
of the development of Shakespeare's mind and art. Lectures on fifteen
plays best representing his work at different periods will be given.
Other plays by Shakespeare and his contemporaries will be read as
parallel.

Text-Book.—Any complete standard edition of Shakespeare such
as Neilson's, The Globe, or Leopold editions.

Daily, from 8:30 to 9:30. Professor Wauchope. Cabell Hall,
Room 4.

7. British Essayists.—This course is intended for those who have
graduated at some standard college or pursued courses in English
literature equivalent to the B. A. course in the University of Virginia.
This course will be a careful study of six essayists with reference


40

Page 40
both to content and style. The essayists selected are Macaulay,
Carlyle, Newman, Arnold, Ruskin and Stevenson. Parallel reading
in other contemporary essayists may be required. The work will be
conducted by conferences, lectures, and written reports.

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15. Professor Metcalf. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

8. The Short Story.—This course in writing is designed for students
whose work in general rhetoric and composition has advanced sufficiently
to justify specialization in the types of discourse. Those who
at a previous session have had the course in Rhetoric and Composition,
No. 2, or its equivalent, will be prepared for this advanced class.
The work will proceed by a study and discussion of the principles of
the short story, by critical reading of some of the best specimens from
American authors, and by exercises in the art of story-writing.

Text-Books.—Esenwein's Writing the Short-Story (Hinds, Noble &
Eldredge), selected specimens of the modern short story.

Daily, from 2:30 to 3:30. Professor Myers. Cabell Hall, Room 4.

9. Elementary Language.—This course is planned to give teachers
of the elementary schools a brief, concentrated study of the essentials
of matter and method for the language work of all grades above the
primary. The topics discussed will include the following: the purpose
and plan of language study; vital points in language teaching;
language environment; relation of language to other subjects; the
child's own activities and experience as a basis for language work;
language and character; language and the community; the teacher
of language; literature and language; English for rural schools; importance
of oral language training; types of oral lessons—conversation
lessons, picture lessons, the study of stories, memorizing poems,
dramatization, the correction of common errors of speech; spelling
and word study; the course of study in language; the function and
types of written work; how to secure better written work. The
treatment of these topics will be practical and suggestive, rather than
theoretical.

Text-Books.—Hyde's Two Book Course in English, Book I; Emerson
and Bender's Modern English, Book I. It is recommended that any
series of language books, and professional works on teaching language,
be brought for reference.

Daily, from 8:30 to 9:30. Miss Andrews. Cabell Hall, Room 2.

10. Elementary Grammar.—This course aims primarily at giving
teachers a deeper, surer knowledge of the subject matter of grammar,
and those completing the work satisfactorily should find themselves
thoroughly, prepared for the State examination in this subject. The
instruction will cover the work of the seventh and eighth grades.
Language will be considered mainly from the functional side, and
presented so as to provide training in the actual process of thinking.
There will be a condensed study of the essential features of descriptive
grammar, with especial emphasis upon the more difficult points
—the abstract noun, the comparison of adjectives, the function of
case, the personal pronoun, all phases of analysis, and, above all, the
verb and the verbals. Frequent touches of comparative and historical
grammar will be employed for the sake of the new light and interest
to be gained therefrom. There will be, in addition, some consideration
of the historical development of grammar teaching, the function
and purpose of grammar, the place of grammar in the elementary
schools, the relation of grammar to language work, and grammar as
a record of usage rather than a law of usage.

FRENCH.

The courses deal with language. Students are carried to the point
where a study of French literature may begin. Pronunciation and
the ability to understand easy spoken French are held to be quite as
essential as the knowledge of forms. In both courses, the student
will not be considered as having mastered a form (either word, or
phrase), until he has learned to recognize the form by sound and is
able to reproduce the sound.

GEOGRAPHY.

1. Physical Geography.—In this course are discussed some of the
early cosmogonies as illustrating the evolution of ideas in regard to
the size, shape and origin of the earth. Then the main physical features
of the geography of the globe are presented in outline, while
the land masses are treated in greater detail. The different types of
mountains, plains and plateaus and also the variety of land forms
produced by the agents of erosion are described, and their scenic features
and economic aspects are emphasized in connection with the
fundamental principles underlying their development. Among the
topics treated are the following: The atmosphere, the elements of
cartography, such as the construction, use and interpretation of
maps; classes of rocks, origin of soils, effects of glaciation, theories
as to the cause of Vulcanism, character and functions of lakes and
oceans, sources of water supply, springs and wells and their proper
location and protection from pollution; types of rivers and their relative
value for water power, transportation, etc.

The lectures will be supplemented by text-book study and assignments
for reading. The afternoon sessions will be largely in the nature
of laboratory work devoted to the examination and interpretation
of maps, showing a great number of different types of topography.

Text-Books.—Davis' "Elementary Physical Geography," Davis' "Practical
Exercises in Physical Geography."

Lectures, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, daily, 9:30 to 10:30.

2. Commercial Geography.—This course is designed for those who
want to study geography from the view point of man's industrial development
and trading, and hence desire to become acquainted with
the distribution, transportation, manufacture, use, etc., of the world's
chief commercial products. Particular emphasis is laid on the resources
of the United States and the regions of their occurrence, although


43

Page 43
those of other countries, especially Canada, are also discussed
at greater or less length. Among the subjects that are to be most
emphasized are the following: The physiography of the United
States, its plant products, animal and mineral industries, water resources,
concentration of industries, transportation and commerce.
The same topics will be discussed, but more briefly, with reference
to foreign countries.

It is desired that students taking commercial geography should be
quite familiar with the fundamental principles of physical geography,
although that is not demanded as a prerequisite. The class will employ
the text-book named below with probably an additional one to
be announced later. The text will be supplemented by lectures and,
using the literature, members of this class will, from time to time,
be required to prepare papers on assigned topics.

PHYSICS.

1. High School Physics for Teachers.—The topics treated in this
course will be mechanics, heat, and sound. It will be accompanied
by four hours laboratory work per week, the student performing about
twenty-five experiments in Millikan and Gale's Manual. Physics 3 (a),
however, is more than the equivalent of this laboratory work and
may be substituted for it.

Text-Books.—Millikan and Gale's First Course in Physics.

Daily, lectures, from 8:30 to 9:30. Mr. Diggs. Rouss Physical
Laboratory, Room 20.

Monday and Tuesday, laboratory, from 2:30 to 4:30. Mr. Boyer.
Rouss Physical Laboratory, Room 21.

2. High School Physics for Teachers.—The topics treated in this
course will be magnetism, electricity, and light. It will be accompanied
by four hours laboratory work per week, the student performing
about twenty-five experiments in Millikan and Gale's Manual.

Physics 3(b) however, is more than the equivalent of this laboratory
work and may be substituted for it.

Text-Book.—Millikan and Gale's First Course in Physics.

by the instructor. The apparatus used in every case will be
of the simplest type such as will most likely be found in the equipment
of the average high school. The laboratory work will give the student
ample opportunity to familiarize himself with laboratory methods and
apparatus; whenever necessary the experiments will be abbreviated so
as to allow the student to become acquainted will all those belonging
to the subjects treated without the expenditure of any more time than
indicated. The student is urged, however, to substitute courses 3(a)
and 3(b) for this laboratory work both from the standpoint of credits
and thoroughness.

A number of lecture-table experiments will be conducted in order to
clear up difficult points, but the usual method of recitation will be the
discussion of assigned topics and such questions as may arise, as it is
desired that these courses be practical and helpful.

3. Laboratory Course in Physics.—This course is designed for
students and teachers who may have had the equivalent of Courses 1
and 2 without much laboratory work. The student will perform and
report fully all the experiments in the text used. It is divided into
two parts (a) and (b); the former covering the ground of Course 1,
the latter, of Course 2.

successfully completed in the aggregate, entitle the student who has
fulfilled conditions stated on page 15 to a credit for the college year's
course in physics given in the University during the regular session,
namely, Course 1B.

Certificate Credit.—Professional Summer School Certificate—Physics
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; Special Certificate—Physics 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

PSYCHOLOGY.

1. General Psychology.—A thorough understanding of the fundamental
processes of consciousness is now considered essential to an
intelligent comprehension of many of the problems of philosophy; of
the significance of language and literature; of the meaning and purport
of history; of the principles and methods of teaching as well as
the problems and aims of education. In this course the following
mental processes will be discussed and studied with the aid of Angell's
Psychology as a text supplemented by numerous references to the
works of recognized authorities both in America and Europe: attention,
discrimination and association; sensation; perception; imagination;
memory; consciousness of meaning and the formation of concepts;
judgment and the elements of reasoning; forms and functions
of reasoning; reflex action and instinct; nature of impulse and of
emotion; general theory of emotion; volition; relation of volition
to interest, effort and desire; character and the will; and the self.
Each process will be studied with special reference to the psychophysical
organism and the nervous system, in order to make intelligible
its neural basis, genesis and development, and function. The
course will be preceded with one or more lectures on neural action
and habit.

Text.—Angell's Psychology.

Daily, 8:30 to 9:30. Professor Martin. Rotunda, Room 1.

2. Experimental Psychology.—This course is designed to introduce
the student to this subject. It will treat of sensation,—authority,
visual, tactile; memory; attention; psycho-physical methods; statistical
methods; reaction time.

Text-Book.—Myer's Experimental Psychology.

Daily, from 3:30 to 4:30. Mr. Balz. Rouss Physical Laboratory,
Room 11.

STORY TELLING.

1. (a) Origin and History of Story Telling.—Work of Scald, Gleeman
Rhapsodist and Minstrel—Folk culture—Prior to Book-Culture.

The world's great story books were handed down by word of mouth
—the growth of ages—Siegfried, Beowulf, Hiawatha, Homer's Iliad
and Odyssey—King Arthur, Bible Stories, Folk and Fairy Stories,
Uncle Remus—Stories from History and Modern Life.

(b) Use of the Story.—In grades, high school, kindergarten, library,
Sunday school, play-ground, home. The form and expression
of the spirit—retelling dramatization. Culture of ear and tongue—
sensuous beauty of speech—composition that comes from heart and
imagination—We write as we speak—The larger results—Soul—Personality.

(c) How to Tell a Story.—Psychic laws—Imagination—Vivid pictures—See
clearly—Feeling—Effect on voice and manner—Feel deeply
—The dynamic in life. Story teller creates anew the story each time.
Story telling not reading, reciting or acting, but a creative process.
A field of its own—is one with all art expressions. Speaker and audience
become one mind and heart. The value of health—effect of social
songs and folk-games on the story telling. A lost art revived.—The
most profound method of teaching, and the most natural and universal
means of entertaining. Story telling has in it something for every
part of education.

Daily, 10:30 to 11:30. Cabell Hall, Room 8. Monday, Wednesday
and Friday, Professor Wyche. Law Building, Room 2. 4:30. Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday, twilight meeting, 7:20.

Note.—An informal gathering for the purpose of singing and telling
stories will be held at twilight on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday
evenings, on Rotunda or Cabell Hall steps. The instructor will
tell the stories of Ulysses, King Arthur, Siegfried, Beowulf, Hiawatha,
Uncle Remus, Folk Stories, Fairy Stories, the Story of St. Francis,
George Washington, after which other story tellers will appear on the
program.

The National Story Tellers' League of America has plans on foot
to hold here during this session of the Summer School its eighth annual
meeting, to which all local leagues are invited to send representatives.

WRITING.

1. Muscular Movement Penmanship.—The teaching of rapid easy
business writing is dependent on the proper training of the large tireless
muscles of the forearm instead of the incapable little muscles of
the fingers. The Palmer Method of Business Writing, which will be
used in this course, provides explicit instructions in muscular movement
writing and its application to the actual writing of letters and
words. The work will be graded to meet the needs of teachers of all
grades.

Daily, Sections I, II, and III. Mr. Locker. Hours and place to be
arranged.

Certificate Credit.—Professional Grammer Grade Certificate, Professional
Primary Grade Certificate.
