ANNOUNCEMENTS

The University of Virginia Summer School is conducted for teachers
and students in high schools, academies and colleges and for those
who desire professional training for primary and grammar grade
work. It also offers many courses for college credit, and others to
meet the needs of students preparing for college entrance or who
have conditions to absolve. 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 or 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 each year
is an additional proof of the need of such a school. In addition to
courses for high school teachers, the demand for courses for primary
and grammar grade teachers is fully met.

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. The average monthly mean temperature from
1901 to 1911, taken from the records of the weather station at the
University Observatory, was: June 71.4 July, 76.8. Summer rates
are given by the railroads to this point. There are three golf links,
a well-conducted country club and many other attractions for summer
visitors.

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, and the large
new Education Building with laboratories for Manual Arts and Domestic
Arts.

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


14

Page 14
reference section is well supplied with encyclopedias 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.
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 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. The 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 when held in the chapel 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. When the weather permits
the service is held out of doors on the north steps of the Rotunda.

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. No fee
will be charged 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 baseball ground and quarter mile running


15

Page 15
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 Monticello,
the home of Thomas Jefferson; the Natural Bridge; Luray
Caverns; 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 and Old
Point Comfort (three hours ride to each) should make a visit to
either exceptionally interesting. Saturdays will be reserved for these
excursions. On designated 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.
A party will be organized for the Panama Exposition to
leave about August 6.

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. The Coburn Players will
present three plays: The Yellow Jacket, an Imaginary Sick Man,
and Macbeth. The Clifford B. Devereux Company will give three
plays: She Stoops to Conquer, As You Like It, and a Modern
Drama. The Ernest Gamble Concert Party will give one recital;
Jennie Dufau, one recital; and negotiations are pending for a number
of other high class attractions. 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. Besides there will be moving
pictures regularly in Peabody Hall.

RURAL LIFE WEEK.—The time between July 5 and 10 will be
devoted to the study of rural life problems in general, and the rural
church in particular. A special effort will be made to secure a large
attendance of country ministers and laymen, and distinguished speakers
from all sections of the United States will participate in the
Conferences.

FOURTH OF JULY PAGEANT.—Each year an elaborate pageant
is given in connection with the Fourth of July Celebration. An extensive
celebration will be a feature this year.

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 some time in advance to the
local agent for reduced rates which have been granted by the Southern
Passenger Association on a basis of approximately three cents


16

Page 16
a mile plus 25 cents for the round trip. Tickets will be on sale June
20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28, with privilege of extension of final
limit to September 30.

In Virginia reduced rate tickets will be on sale at all railroad stations.
Announcements of dates will be made later by the Department
of Public Instruction. Application has been made to have them
correspond with the above.

A committee will meet all incoming trains night and day, from
June 21st to July 1st, to assist teachers in finding boarding places,
to attend to baggage and to render any other service needed. On
arriving teachers should inquire at the station for members of the
committee who will wear suitable badges. A committee of ladies
from the Y. W. C. A. will assist in welcoming teachers attending
for the first time.

Teachers arriving at Charlottesville from points on the C. and O.
are advised to have their baggage checked to Union Station, Charlottesville.
This will save a great deal of time in having trunks delivered
to destination. Teachers are advised to hand their baggage
checks to the committee. If handed to others a receipt should be
taken.

Teachers arriving before 6 a. m. and later than 10:30 p. m. will
be met, provided they notify the Director. Only trains from 7 a.
m. to 10 p. m. are met, unless notified to the contrary.

A YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION CLUB,
open to every woman in the Summer School, is organized for the purpose
of promoting a pleasant social atmosphere, giving an opportunity for social
service and religious development, and for the study of methods
in club work and church work. The activities include "stunt parties,"
camp breakfasts, Camp Fire Girls demonstrations, weekly meetings
on religious and social questions and special lectures on rural
life questions. A secretary devotes her entire time to the work and
has charge of the club headquarters at Madison Hall.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL NEWS is a college newspaper, edited and
managed by students of the University and of the Summer School. It
contains all official and student organization announcements, campus
news and notes, editorial comment, etc. Its object is to acquaint
individuals with the life of the whole student body, and
to unify the interests of all. Four monthly issues, beginning with
February, will be printed and circulated in addition to the twelve
regular numbers. The subscription price for the whole sixteen issues
is the moderate sum of twenty-five cents. Subscriptions should
be sent to the Business Manager, Summer School News, University,
Virginia.

BOARD AND ROOMS.—Board and room 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


17

Page 17
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
21st. Each room is lighted by electricity, has stationary wash stand
and running water and will contain one bed, one mattress, one pillow,
one chiffonier, one table, one rocking chair, one straight chair.
Double rooms will be furnished with two single beds complete, unless
a double bed is especially desired; one chiffonier, except where
there are more than two in room; one rocking chair or one morris
chair and two single chairs. 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 Mrs. M. P. Harris,
an experienced matron and chaperone. Some members of the faculty
will be located in each set of dormitories. No cooking allowed in
rooms. 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 $4.00 a week,
$16.50 a month or $25.00 for the session of forty-six days. The University
Commons will be managed this year by Mr. Charles Jaimes,
a caterer and restaurateur of wide experience. A Restaurant a la
Carte and lunch counter will be run in connection with the Commons,
open from 9:30 A. M. to 11 P. M.

Application for dormitory rooms should be sent promptly, with
retaining fee. For list of boarding houses, rates, etc., see page 73.

FEES FOR NON-VIRGINIA STUDENTS.—A single registration
fee of twelve dollars will be charged each teacher who registers from outside
of Virginia. 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.

FEES FOR VIRGINIA TEACHERS.—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 of 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 to all who take them. The fee for each
is designated in the catalogue. Small fees in laboratory courses will
also be charged all students who register in them.

Students from Virginia who are not teachers or preparing to teach
next session will be charged the same tuition as non-Virginia students.
Teachers whose residence is in Virginia but who are teaching
outside of Virginia will be charged the same fee as non-Virginians.

Page 18

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.

TIME AND PLACE OF RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.
Recitations will begin in all courses Wednesday, June 23, 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
except possibly on Saturday, June 26th, when classes will meet
at the usual hours. The length of recitation will be one hour, ten
minutes of which will be allowed for transfer from one room to
another. Tuesday, August 3rd, Wednesday and Thursday, August
4th and 5th, 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 six buildings—Peabody Hall, Cabell Hall,
Rouss Physical Laboratory, Mechanical Laboratory, Rotunda, and
the Law Building.

REGISTRATION.—Tuesday, June 22nd, 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 23rd will
be permitted to attend classes and register as promptly as possible
at other hours. The Registrar's office, located in Peabody Hall
will be open continuously June 22nd, 23rd, and 24th 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 30th, 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 21st, 22nd, and
23rd, must enter twenty days prior to July 21st.

Promptly at 9:30 Tuesday morning, June 22nd, all applicants for
registration will assemble in the auditorium of Peabody 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.

No student will be admitted to any course without a registration
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 card, which must be signed by the Registrar and
the Bursar to be valid.

IMPORTANT NOTE.—Every teacher who is applying for a Virginia
State Teachers' Summer School Professional Certificate of any kind
should bring with her and before registering have whatever certificate
she holds and which she desires to use as a basis of entrance on such
professional work, approved by a representative of the Department
of Public Instruction who will be present for that purpose.

NON-VIRGINIA TEACHERS.—The regulations in regard to teachers'
certificates and the requirements for entrance to certain courses in the
Summer School do not apply to teachers from other states than
Virginia unless they desire to apply for a Virginia teachers' certificate.

STUDENTS' MAIL.—In order to insure safe and prompt delivery of
mail, every student should have all mail directed to University, Virginia,
giving always the street and number of his boarding place or
the number and location of his room in the University.

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. At the close of each
session every teacher who expects to apply for a Virginia Summer
School Professional Certificate should fill out and file with the Director
one of the application blanks (Form S. S. 7-10) furnished
by the Department of Public Instruction. When all of the courses
required for any certificate are completed, the Department will issue
the certificate and mail it to the applicant direct. In no case should
the certificates given by the Summer School be sent to the Department.

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. 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 University of Virginia may be granted

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

securing transfer of credits.

VIRGINIA STATE CERTIFICATES.

Note.—Teachers outside of Virginia are not limited in the choice
of their courses to 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.

session of the following summer.

BIOLOGY

The courses in biology have been organized with two ends in view:
First, to give teachers adequate training to carry courses in botany,


29

Page 29
zoölogy and biology in their public school work and to give
them instruction that will supplement their work in physiology, hygiene
and agriculture.

Second, to enable premedical students to fulfill the medical entrance
requirements as prescribed by the American Medical Association
in June, 1913. It is to be noted here all premedical students
are required to take course 3 with their course in either Botany or
Zoölogy.

1. Botany.—This course is outlined primarily to give the student
a knowledge of how plants live, grow and propagate themselves, and
of their structure. An introduction to the systematic study and naming
of ferns and flowering plants will be included in this course.
The teacher completing this work will be prepared to place an introductory
course of botany in his or her high school curriculum.
This work will also supplement, in a helpful manner, his or her work
in drawing, geography and physiology. No text-book required. Laboratory
fee for teachers $1.00, for premedical students and for those
seeking University credit $10.00, which fee includes the registration
fee.

Daily, 8:30 to 9:30; Laboratory 9:30 to 11:30; Laboratory for premedical
students and University credit students 11:30 to 12:30. Professor
Kepner and Mr. Taliaferro. Cabell Hall, Room 12.

2. Zoology.—This course is outlined primarily to give the student
a knowledge of how animals live, grow and propagate themselves,
and of their structure. The teacher completing this work will be
prepared to place an introductory course of Zoölogy in his or her
high school curriculum. This work will also supplement, in a helpful
manner, his or her work in drawing, geography and physiology.
No text-book will be required. Laboratory fee for teachers $1.00,
for premedical students and for those seeking University credit $10.00,
which fee includes the registration fee.

Daily, 2:30 to 3:30; Laboratory, 3:30 to 5:30. Professor Kepner
and Mr. Taliaferro. Cabell Hall, Room 12.

3. Experimental Biology.—This course consists of a series of laboratory
experiments, on plants and animals, supplemented with a
limited number of explanatory lectures. Its object, on one hand, is
to give teachers of both Botany and Zoölogy a series of experiments
that they can use as demonstrations in their class work. On the
other hand it supplements the premedical students' work in either
Botany or Zoölogy by giving them some idea of experimental Biology.
No text-book or laboratory fee required.

Daily, 11:30 to 12:30. Professor Kepner and Mr. Taliaferro. Cabell
Hall, Room 12.

Certificate Credit.—Summer School Professional Certificate Advanced
Grade—Biology, 1, 2, and 3; Summer School Professional Certificate—College
Grade—Biology 1, 2, and 3.

University Credit.—Students who complete the work of courses
1 and 3 will be given credit for one term's work in Botany B1. Those
who complete the work in courses 2 and 3 will be given credit for
one term's work in Zoölogy.

Fee.—Students not registered in either Biology 1 or 2 will be
charged a registration fee of $5.


30

Page 30

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.

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 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—Advanced
Grade and College Grade.

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


31

Page 31
emphasis will be laid upon the essential phenomena and laws of
matter changes, especially those of daily occurrence.

Daily, 8:30 to 10:30. Professor Bird, and Mr. Carter. West Range
Laboratory.

3. The Principles of General Chemistry.—This course is offered
especially for those who desire University credit in general chemistry,

processes that go on in the home. So far as their previous training
will permit, students will be expected to study experimentally the
composition of pure and impure air; the chemistry of combustion;
the composition of cleansing agents, their reaction with "hard"
water, their effects on fabrics, etc.; the chemistry of disinfectants;
the composition of foods and the changes they undergo when
cooked; the chemistry of fermentation and decay; the adulteration
and preservation of food. The laboratory work will consume about
two hours a day.

COMMERCIAL COURSES

1. Bookkeeping.—This course is outlined to give the student a
good working knowledge of the principles and methods of modern
bookkeeping in as short a time as is consistent with thoroughness.
Both Single and Double Entry books are studied and written up in
a practical and systematic manner. Due attention is given to statements,
Trial Balances, Balance Sheets, Opening and Closing Books.
A modern text is used as a basis, supplemented by lectures on important


35

Page 35
points. The instruction is to a great extent individual; therefore,
perfect classification can be secured by those who have had
some of the subject as well as by those who are taking it up for
the first time. While it is impossible to complete the subject in this
brief time, the student is carried far enough to make it possible to
continue the study to excellent advantage outside of school and without
the personal aid of an instructor.

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

2. Shorthand.—This course covers the entire manual of one of the
leading systems of phonography—a system which has won its permanent
place in High Schools and Commercial Colleges because it
possesses to a greater extent than any other system the three fundamental
essentials: Simplicity, Legibility and Speed. The alphabet is
taken up and mastered in logically arranged sections. Sentence writing
is introduced in the first lesson; therefore, when this text is completed,
the student not only has learned the rules and principles by
which every word in the language is written, but has had considerable
experience in writing. Those who finish this course properly
should be able, with additional speed practice on their part, to
do office work.

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

3. Typewriting.—The Touch System of Typewriting is used. Careful
attention is paid to technique, and the methods selected will yield
the best results with the least expenditure of energy. Due attention
is devoted to the use and care of the machine, fingering, etc. The
progress of the student depends to a great extent upon his application
and ability, as the work is almost entirely individual. This is a
subject that can be pursued with the aid of the text to excellent advantage
after an introductory course has been taken. Underwood
typewriters will be used.

Daily, hours to be arranged. Cabell Hall, Room 4. Professor
Webb.

4. Commercial Arithmetic.—This course is outlined to give the
student a thorough working knowledge of those classes of problems
that come up for solution in every day business life. Common and
decimal fractions, bills and statements, all the divisions of percentage,
such as interest, discount, taxes and banking, equation of
accounts, and problems dealing with partnerships and corporations
together with many practical examples are taken up and treated
thoroughly. Accuracy and systematic methods are stressed throughout.

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.

A special art certificate will be given to those who complete the
course here outlined which will certify that the holder is competent
to do supervisors work.

Drawing 1.—For 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.

First Year—First Grade: Cut paper to paste, outline filled in with
color, play with water color, copy color natural objects, pose drawing

School in Art 7.—The school in Art was begun a number of years
ago under the direction and personal instruction of the well-known
illustrator and alumnus of the University of Virginia, Mr. Graham
Cootes and for many summers was successfully conducted by him
with the help of such artists as George Bellows, Bredin, Scott and
Duncan Smith. It will open its eighth session this summer. As
usual the classes will be two in number, one in the morning from
9:30 to 1 o'clock, and one in the afternoon, in which the pupils
work out of doors from nature. In the morning the pupils draw and
paint from a model in costume, in any medium. The course is designed
for pupils interested in illustration, cartooning, poster-work,
portrait, landscape or decorative painting, and for those who desire
it as an aid in teaching. The Class in Composition meets on Saturday.

At the end of the term an exhibition of the work done by the
students is held in Peabody Hall. The exhibition last summer
was very successful and attracted wide interest and much
favorable comment. The work compared favorably with that of the
large Northern Art Schools. No other art school can advance the
pupil so rapidly as the students have daily criticisms, instead of the
usual one or two a week, and more personal attention and interest
on the part of the instructor than in other art schools. A Scholarship
for 1915-16 is offered by the New York School of Fine and
Applied Art (formerly "Chase's") to the student doing the best all
around work. A prize will be awarded for the best painting made
during the term.

The main term will be that of the Summer School, six weeks,

The Hebrew Scriptures: the Story of Their Origin and Transmission.—The
threefold grouping of the books in Hebrew, their order,
the whole known as Bible, which means "books," hence a collection;
not immediately visible (between two covers) as with us; the
seal put on the collection by the Pharisaic doctors; who they were
and their opponents; the Pharisees determined what books were to
be excluded; a fourth and fifth group on the outside; the middle
group sanctioned by the Scribes who excluded lost prophetic and
historical works; the first group or the Law; the three groups correspond
to three authoritative bodies—priests, prophets, and wise
men; the clash of movements and counter-movements of thought;
the Law dominates in the end, itself permeated by phophesy which
also censors wisdom.

Early writing material; autograph and transcripts; scribal errors;
the authoritative text watched with care from times antecedent to
the earliest manuscripts extant; the system of annotations and lists
of readings known as Masoretic; manuscripts and early prints; standard
editions; the ancient versions: the Aramaic or Targum; the Greek or

Vulgate; the translations based on the Greek, like the Coptic, Ethiopic,
Armenian, Gothic; translations based on the Vulgate, like Wycliffe;
the English Bible of 1611, its predecessors and followers; the
history of interpretation; grammar and rational exegesis; the auxiliary
sciences of history, geography, archaeology; what is meant by
the higher criticism.

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. Advanced English Grammar for High School and College Teachers.—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 transition 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.);
Jovne's Notes on the Parts of Speech (R. L. Bryan Co.).

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15. Professor Wauchope. Law Building,
Room 2.

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
induce them to take advantage of local material and opportunities;
third, to encourage among teachers and pupils alike good reading


48

Page 48
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. Law Building,
Room 2.

3. English Literature.—This course may be outlined as follows:
(1) A study of the principal periods of English Literature through
the life and work of (at least) one of the great writers of each period.
(2) Special lectures on the books set for "Study" (English B)
in the college entrance requirements, and also on a few of the most
important set for "Reading" (English A). (3) A brief course in poetics
including the ballad, sonnet, ode, dirge, epic, and romance
forms; with the study of illustrative selections. Parallel reading and
written reports. In this course the value of oral interpretation of
literature will be emphasized, and as much interpretative reading
will be done as time will permit. Suggestions for oral work in High
School English Literature, and a number of outlines for written
work will be given.

Text-Books.—Manly's English Poetry (Ginn and Co.); Metcalf's
(B. F. Johnson and Co.) or any other good history of English Literature;
and texts of classics set for study in college entrance requirements.

Daily, 10:30 to 11:30. Professor Reade, Law Building, Room 2.

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.—Metcalf's American Literature (B. F. Johnson & Co.);
Page's Chief American Poets (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.).

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15. Professor Metcalf. Law Building,
Room 1.

5. American Literature.—B. This course will be a survey of the
whole field of American literature not by authors but by types.
There are eleven of these and the question that we shall try to answer
will be: What is the best that our country has done in (1) the
epic, (2) the drama, (3) the ballad, (4) the lyric, (5) history, (6)
biography, (7) the essay, (8) the oration, (9) the letter, (10) the
short story, and (11) the novel? The distinctive contributions of
the different sections of the United States will be appraised and the
effort made to find out what Americanism in literature means. The
opinion of noted foreign critics will be consulted wherever accessible.

Text-Books.—A. W. Long's American Poems (American Book Company);
G. R. Carpenter's American Prose (The Macmillan Company).

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

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.


49

Page 49

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. Law Building,
Room 1.

7. Tennyson and Browning.—A careful study of representative
poems of Tennyson and Browning. Lectures and interpretative readings
will make clear the elements of their art and its relation to the
important movements of the nineteenth century. Parallel reading,
references, and written reports.

Text-Books.—The Cambridge or Globe edition of Tennyson's
Poems and Browning's Poems (Houghton, Mifflin & Co. and Macmillan
Co.).

Daily, from 4:30 to 5:30. Professor Metcalf. Law Building,
Room 2.

8. Advanced Composition: Narration and Exposition.—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 narration and exposition,
especially the short story and the short essay, by critical reading
of some of the best specimens from recent American authors, and
by exercise in both types.

Text-Books.—Esenwein's Writing the Short-Story (Hinds, Noble, &
Eldridge); Canby's English Composition in Theory and Practice (Macmillan);
specimens of stories and essays from the best current magazines.

Daily, from 4:30 to 5:30. Professor Myers. Law Building,
Room 1.

9. The Books of the New Testament.—When you say "Hamlet" or
"Les Misérables" or "Evangeline" or "David Copperfield" the hearer
not only recognizes the name but recalls the distinctive contents. He
has read these works as wholes, has thought of them as wholes, and
remembers them as wholes. But try the same test with "Mark" or
"Ephesians" or "Colossians" or "First Thessalonians." Could you
give as clear an outline of the contents of any one of these as of
any one of the others? Yet you have read them and heard them
read far more frequently. The difference is that you have read these
Bible books and heard them read by piecemeal, "here a little and
there a little;" and the sixty-six books of the Bible are the only
pieces of world literature that we approach in this hop-skip-and-jump
way.

In this course we are going (1) to read each one of the books of
the New Testament as far as possible at a sitting, (2) to find its
central or nuclear thought, (3) to view it as if it were all of the
New Testament that had come down to us, and (4) to remember
that the writers wrote not because they had to say something but because
they had something to say.

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15. Professor Smith. Assembly Room,
Cabell Hall.

10. Oral Expression.—In view of the larger requirements of the
English course of study of today, the need of thorough training in
the art of expression becomes a matter of vital interest to teachers
of literature. Instruction in elocution is twofold in its nature;


50

Page 50
on its negative side, it aims to correct faults which would detract
from an otherwise good rendition of the masterpieces of literature;
while on its positive side it endeavors to bring out individual talent
and to inspire such sympathy with the text as may result in a simple,
natural and effective reading. Above all things, the aim of any course
in public speaking should be to develop the personality of the student,
not to make him a mere imitator.

The lessons will be divided into two parts: First, a lecture on
some phase of the subject with illustrative readings, followed by individual
and class exercises bearing upon the matter under discussion.
Assignments will be made each day of selections to be studied
which will be read or recited by members of the class. This will
be followed by criticisms by the instructor.

The lectures will deal with such subjects as thought-reading, emphasis,
breaking, articulation, phonetics, expression, reading of poetry,
quality, pitch, force, time, the tunes of speech, gesture, dialogue,
dramatic reading, and impersonation.

Students who intend to take the work in American and English
Literature are especially urged to avail themselves of the opportunity
offered by this course.

Daily from 3:30 to 4:30. Professor Reade. Law Building, Room 3.

Text-Books.—Shoemaker's Practical Elocution. The following are
recommended for reference: Murdoch-Russell's Vocal Culture; Kofler's
Art of Breaking; Lanier's Science of English Verse.

11. 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 below
the sixth. 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; importance of oral language
training; types of oral lessons; language work based upon nature
study, geography, literature, history, pictures, games, and hand work,
giving the various topics of the course of study re-impression through
language expression, while providing a reasonable basis for language
itself.

Daily, from 8:30 to 9:30. Miss Brooks and Miss London. Law
Building, Room 3.

12. 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 elementary


51

Page 51
schools, the relation of grammar to language work, and grammar
as a record of usage rather than a law of usage.

Text-Books.—Emerson and Bender's Modern English, Book II.

Section I, daily, from 10:30 to 11:30. Law Building, Room 3; Section
II, daily from 12:15 to 1:15; Law Building, Room 3. Mr. Shewmake.

grammar will be formed for those teachers who need drill for the
State Examinations. The work of this class will be based on the outline
furnished by the Department of Education. Students preparing
for the State Examinations are advised to take this course rather than
English 9 and 10.

Section I, from 9:30 to 10:30. Law Building, Room 3. Miss London.

SCHOOL MUSIC

Courses for Supervisors of Music.—These courses are primarily intended
for the training of supervisors of music and special teachers of
music in the public schools. In order to complete the work and receive
a supervisor's certificate, allowing a graduate to teach music in
the public schools of Virginia, it is required that the candidate shall
have attended two summer sessions. Detailed information in regard
to home study during the academic year may be had on application
to Professor Fillmore.

Courses for Grade Teachers.—The probability is that the near
future will witness a requirement made by school boards and State
boards of education, demanding that the grade teacher shall qualify
in music as she must qualify in every other subject in the elementary
curriculum. Such a requirement is already in force in several states.
This makes a special course of music for grade teachers an actual
necessity.

A special grade teacher's certificate will be granted to the teacher
who completes satisfactorily the work in Courses 1A, 2A, 1B, 2B, 1C,
2C. These courses give thorough training in sight reading, in ear
training and dictation and in the methods of presenting public school
music. This gives the teacher as much freedom in knowledge of
methods and materials in music as in the subjects of geography,
spelling, arithmetic, and the like.

Courses for First Year Students.

Material and Sight Singing—1A.—The satisfactory completion of
this course requires (1) the ability to read at sight with Italian syllables,
and with musical expression, the music taught in the first four
years of the publc schools, and (2) a knowledge of the material for
these grades.

Daily, from 8:30 to 9:30, Professor Fillmore, Madison Hall.

Study of Tone and Rhythm—1B.—The activities prescribed in this
course embody the careful development and mastery of all tonal,
metric and rhythmic problems of the first four years of the public
schools, through the medium of musical dictation. This work is
based on the aural recognition of the scale and scale successions up
and down in varying order, followed by the written expression of
the same. Ear training and eye training are then combined so that
power may be gained to think tones and to sense meter and rhythms
and at the same time acquire a practical knowledge of scale relations
and the application of the Italian syllables used in sight reading.

Daily, from 9:30 to 10:30, Miss Fraser, Madison Hall.

Methods and Rote Songs—1C.—This course is devoted to the discussion
and presentation of correct teaching principles of music for
the first four years in public schools. The methods employed are
those used in the school room. Students are required to formulate
detailed outlines embodying the preparation and presentation of
lessons for the classroom. Rote singing is the foundation upon which
there must be laid the whole structure of school music. In this
course, emphasis is placed on the importance of selecting material
specially adapted for rote singing, upon the method of presentation,
and upon the artistic interpretation of the thought and spirit of the
song.

Daily, from 10:30 to 11:30. Miss Fraser, Madison Hall.

Rudiments of Music and Melody Writing—1D.—The work in Rudiments
of Music includes the study of the constructive elements of
music with individual oral and written tests on the same. This includes
(1) the notation and terminology of pitch, duration and volume;
(2) pitch names; (3) the structure of the major scale; application
to all keys; (4) key signature; (5) elementary melody.

Daily, from 12:15 to 1:15, Professor Fillmore, Madison Hall.

Music History and Current Musical Events—1E.—Students taking
the course will be required to pass an examination covering the most
important facts relating to the great classical and romantic composers
and their music; also a working knowledge of current musical
events together with the names of the most eminent living composers,
their works, and the names of the principal music performers of
the day, instrumentalists as well as vocalists.

Daily except Wednesdays, from 3:30 to 4:30, Miss Fraser, Madison
Hall.


64

Page 64

Courses for Second Year Students.

Material and Sight Singing—2A.—A certificate of credit for this
requires the ability to read at sight with Italian syllables or words
music of the degree of difficulty taught in the fifth, sixth, seventh, and
eighth years of the public schools.

A knowledge of all material suitable for grades five to eight inclusive
is required.
