APPROXIMATE SUMMARY OF NECESSARY EXPENSES.

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

UNIVERSITY CAFETERIA.—The University Cafeteria, conducted
by Mrs. Josie W. Rodes, will be open for summer students and
will provide table board at very low prices. The average cost last
session for three meals per day, including all transient meals served,
was $22.40 per month. It should be somewhat lower this year. It
is not necessary to reserve a place in the Cafeteria in advance.

FEES FOR VIRGINIA TEACHERS AND STUDENTS.—Tuition
is entirely free to all Virginia teachers in all the regular courses, leading
to certification. No student, however, will be permitted to take
more than three advanced courses without the payment of $5.00 for
each additional course. To meet local expenses the State Board of
Education has fixed a registration fee of $1.50 for a six weeks' term
for all of the Summer Schools of the State, and this fee will be


13

Page 13
charged here. There are a few special courses offered to meet certain
demands, 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 definitely 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.

FEES FOR NON-VIRGINIA STUDENTS.—A single registration
fee of fifteen dollars for each term will be charged each student 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 permitted to take more than three courses without special permission
in writing from all instructors concerned and the Dean and without
paying a fee of $5.00 for each extra course. See page 15.

Note.—Teachers outside of Virginia are not limited in the choice of
their courses to the regulations under which Virginia certificates are
issued, unless they desire to teach in Virginia and apply for a license
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 credit.

Teachers from other states will receive credit for all work done in
accordance with the certificate regulations of those States from which
they come. Most Southern States accept the work of the University
Summer Quarter for certificate credit or renewal.

Medical Fee.—A small medical fee of 50 cents will be charged each
person who registers each term, which will entitle him or her to free
medical attendance by Dr. W. E. Bray, the Physician of the Summer
Quarter, hospital phone, 548; residence phone, 565; office hours at the
hospital 11:30 to 12:30 and 4:30 to 5:00. Greatly reduced charges, if
it should be necessary, will be given at the University Hospital, under
the following regulations:

Medical Attendance.—Any student who is temporarily ill from causes
not due to his own misconduct, is entitled, without charge, to all necessary
medical advice from the Physician of the Summer Quarter; and,
if necessary, to nursing in the University Hospital at a reasonable
charge for maintenance while there. This exemption from charge
does not apply to cases requiring surgical operation, and for special
treatment of the eye, ear, nose, and throat, or to constitutional disorders
from which the student in question was suffering at the time of
coming to the University. Nor is the University responsible for the
expense incurred through the employment of private nurses, necessitated
by severe illness of the students, or through the maintenance of
quarantine precautions in contagious cases. Any student sent to the
University Hospital by the advice and under the care of a physician
other than the Summer Quarter Physician will be required to pay the
regular hospital charges for private patients.

TIME AND PLACE OF RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.
Recitations will begin in all courses Tuesday, June 20th, at 8:30 a. m.
There will be no classes on Saturdays in the first term except June
24th, and July 8th, when classes will meet at the usual hours, to make
up for registration and examination days. The length of recitation
periods will be one hour, ten minutes of which will be allowed for
transfer from one room to another.

SUNDAY VESPER SERVICES.—Experience has shown that no
Sunday service held here during the summer has been more attractive
or more appreciated than the Vesper 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
is always kept within one hour, begins at seven o'clock, and when
weather permits, is held in the McIntire Ampitheatre. Otherwise in
Cabell Hall.

REGISTRATION.—Monday, 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. The
Registrar's office, located in Peabody Hall, will be open continuously
from 8:30 a. m. to 5:00 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 Tuesday,
June 26th, except a certificate of attendance.

No student will be enrolled in any course without a registration
card naming the course in question and properly signed by the Registrar
and the Bursar.

THE GENERAL LIBRARY.—The General Library is open to the
corps of instructors and the students of the Summer Quarter, 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.

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.

REST AND STUDY ROOMS.—Madison Hall, the beautiful building
of the Young Men's Christian Association, and during the summer
session headquarters for the Y. W. C. A., will be open to students and
Faculty of the Summer Quarter, from nine o'clock in the morning until
ten at night. Students will have access to the current periodicals in
the reading room. 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.

THE YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.

The program of the Y. W. C. A. in a summer school is most elastic
for its great aim is to fit into an already packed six weeks of work by
serving wherever it is most needed. Whether the demands are for
recreation—parties, games, tournaments, hikes, etc.,—or for opportunities
for spiritual growth—by Bible classes or meetings—the Y. W. C.
A. strives to meet the needs. Sometimes the requests of the student
for spiritual growth calls into existence Bible classes where, under
strong leadership, the principles of religion and life are discussed.
Sometimes, a desire or corporate worship is expressed, and the vesper
service meets the need.

The Y. W. C. A. Secretary is on the campus to look after the "activities"
of the Association, but better still, she is there as a friend for


15

Page 15
every student. The Y. W. C. A. building (Madison Hall) is of value
only as it is of service—whether through its reading room, as a social
center, or as an information bureau. The desire of the Y. W. C. A. is
that every woman in attendance during the Summer Quarter may find
something she needs or wants from the Y. W. C. A.

The Secretary in charge will be Miss Elsie B. Heller, Student Secretary
of the South Atlantic Field Committee of the Y. W. C. A. She
and her assistant request the co-operation of all and invite each student
to make the Y. W. C. A. her "home" while at the University.

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 or her boarding
place or the number and location of his or her room in the University.
The local address should be filed at the post office promptly upon arrival.

TEACHERS' POSITIONS.—The University Appointment Committee
receives demands for teachers each year. This committee is glad
to have well qualified teachers who are in attendance upon the Summer
Quarter file their applications. There is no charge for this service.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL NEWS.—The News is a college newspaper,
edited and managed by students of the Summer Quarter. 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.

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 Dean of the Summer Quarter the general average grade
of each student in each course. Absences or delayed entrance will be
counted against the student. All examinations must be held under the
Honor System. A certificate for each course completed with an average
grade of 75 per cent will be signed by the instructor and the Dean
of the Summer Quarter and mailed to the student. Each student who
wishes certificates sent, should file with the registrar not later than
July 20th, a large, self-addressed stamped envelope for mailing them.

Credit Allowed by Other States than Virginia.—Application has
been made to other Southern States for credit equal to that accorded
by the Virginia State Board of Education. Credit is now allowed toward
the extension of certificates by many Southern States. All persons
wishing to arrange for credits with their respective school
authorities should correspond with the Dean of the Summer Quarter.

Entrance Credit.—Where courses in the Summer Quarter are taken
to absolve conditions or to meet entrance requirements, no more than
three units of entrance credit may be obtained in a full quarter.

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

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

(b) The Dean of the College will accept the completion of the
courses in the summer quarter in lieu of the entrance examinations in
the same subject, provided that in his judgment the courses are equivalent


16

Page 16
to those required for entrance to the University of Virginia, and
provided, that the certificates of courses completed be approved by the
University of Virginia professor concerned.

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

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

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

(e) That graduate courses completed in the Summer Quarter, if approved
by the Committee of Graduate Studies, shall be credited just as
if they were taken in the regular session; that residence work aggregating
three summer quarters shall be considered as fulfilling the residence
requirements for the master's degree. The following courses
offered this Quarter will be given M. A. credit:

Biology 7C, Biology 8C, Chemistry 10C, Economics 76C, Economics
77C, Economics 78C, Economics 83C, Education 13C, Education
14C, Education 17C, Education 18C, Education 20C, Education
23C, Education 28C, French 59C, French 60C, French 61C, Government
86C, Government 87C, Government 88C, Latin 48C, Mathematics
64C, Spanish 59C, Spanish 60C, Spanish 61C, English 29C,
English 30C, English 35C, English 37C, English 38C, English 39C.

College Credit.—Candidates who desire credit for work done at other
colleges must satisfy the entrance requirements for regular students,
and must, in addition, file with the Dean of the Summer Quarter a
certificate covering the courses for which college credit is desired.
The certificate must bear the official signature of the head of the
candidate's college must specify the character of the courses passed by
the candidate, and must give his grades. The final validation of such
certificates is effected by the successful completion of the courses
taken in this university. In no case will credit be given on more than
forty-eight session-hours of work done elsewhere, and any candidate
who receives this maximum amount of credit can count among the
remaining fifteen session-hours required or his degree only the credit
value of the courses he has passed as a resident student in the Summer
Quarter. In every case the candidate must spend at least three
full summer quarters in this University.

College students and other Virginians who are not teaching are charged the same
tuition fees as non-Virginians.
