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.
Necessary expenses are reckoned as 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 Mr. J. W. Preston, 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 $20.00 per month. It is not necessary to reserve a place in the
Cafeteria in advance.
REDUCED RAILROAD RATES.—Reduced rates on the round
trip identification plan will be authorized from Southeastern territory
in behalf of all of the carrier members of the Southeastern Passenger
Association with the exception of the Apalachicola Northern Railroad,
Columbus & Greenville Railroad, Macon, Dublin & Savannah Railroad,
Mississippi Central Railroad, New Orleans Great Northern Railroad,
and Winston-Salem Southbound Railway. The Atlantic Coast
Line Railroad and Charleston & Western Carolina Railway will be included
only from competitive points. The basis will be one and one-half
fare for the round trip, minimum excursion fare $1.00, and tickets
will be sold only to students and members of their families upon presentation
of identification certificates to ticket agents at time of purchase
of tickets.
Tickets will be sold June 13-18, inclusive, and July 25-29, inclusive,
final limit of all tickets September 1st, tickets to be validated by the
regular ticket agents of the Charlottesville terminal lines over which
such tickets read before return journey is commenced.
Application should be made to Secretary, Summer Quarter, Box
149, University, Virginia, for identification certificates.
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, except those completing
the old professional course will be permitted to take more than
three courses without the payment of $5.00 for each additional course.
To meet local expenses, a registration fee of $5.00 for a six weeks'
term has been agreed upon. An extra fee of $5.00 will be charged for
each graduate course. 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 will be charged the
same tuition as non-Virginia students.

The term "Virginia teachers" includes those who are now teaching
in Virginia or whose last teaching was in Virginia. The term cannot
be construed as meaning any of the following:
1. Those who are now teaching in other states.
2. Those whose last teaching was in other states.
3. Those who are planning to teach but have not yet taught.
FEES FOR NON-VIRGINIA STUDENTS.—A registration fee of
five dollars for each term and a tuition fee of $15.00 for each term
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 of the Summer Quarter and without paying a fee of $5.00
for each extra course. See page 19.
Note.—Teachers outside of Virginia are not limited in the choice of
courses to the regulations under which Virginia licenses 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 75 cents will be charged each
person who registers each term, which will entitle him or her to free
medical attendance by Dr. J. Edwin Wood, Jr., the Physician of the
Summer Quarter, hospital phone, 548; residence phone, 820; office
hours at the hospital 8:30 to 9:30 and 4:00 to 5:00. Sundays and holidays;
8:30 to 9:30 A. M. only. 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.
PAYMENT OF FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES.—The Bursar
does not cash personal checks, but will accept them in payment of the
exact amount of fees, and they will be accepted at the Cafeteria for
meal tickets. Students should provide themselves with Travelers'
Checks, or New York Drafts, which may be obtained from their home
banks, or Postal Money Orders.
A Branch of the Peoples National Bank of Charlottesville is located
next to the Postoffice at the University where accounts may be opened,
if desired.
TIME AND PLACE OF RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.—
Recitations will begin in all courses Tuesday, June 17th, at 8:30 a. m.
There will be no classes on Saturdays in the first term except June
21st, and July 12th, when classes will meet at the usual hours, to make
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.
The service begins at half past seven o'clock and, when weather permits,
is held in the McIntire Amphitheatre. Otherwise in Cabell Hall.
The service consists of community singing, a brief address followed by
an appropriate musical program.
CHURCH WEEK.—The week beginning Sunday, July 6th, will be
designated as "Church Week" and a daily program of preaching and
of conference is being planned. The Reverend Dr. Campbell Morgan
will preach twice daily during this week. Special music for the occasion
will be conducted by Mr. Homer Hammondtree, of City Mission,
Grand Rapids, Michigan, assisted by Mr. Hermansen. In addition to
this, a daily program of discussion of topics relating to the church will
be arranged. Ministers and church workers of all denominations are
invited to attend this conference.
REGISTRATION IN PERSON.—Saturday, June 14th, and Monday,
June 16th, will be devoted to the registration of students. All
students who can possibly do so should register on these days.
Those who fail to register before June 17th, 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 4:30 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 Tuesday,
June 24th, 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.
REGISTRATION BY MAIL.—Registration may be completed by
mail from April 15th to June 9th. For the necessary blanks, address,
Secretary Summer Quarter. Box 149, University, Virginia.
The following classes of students may register by mail:
1. Students previously enrolled in the Summer Quarter, or the regular
session of the University.
2. New students who do not need advice on their program of work,
or on a particular course which they wish to take.
Registration by mail is intended only for those who know the program
of studies which they may or should take. All such prospective
students are urged to register by mail. This will avoid the great congestion
on registration days, and enable the students to arrive a day
or two later.
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 9:30 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
librarian.
THE HECK MEMORIAL LIBRARY.—The Department of Education
maintains its own library in Peabody Hall, named in honor of
the first professor of Education in the University, the late Professor
William Harry Heck. At present the library consists of several thousand
well selected volumes covering most fields of Education, and files
of national, state, and foreign publications. It also will be open from
9 a. m. to 9:30 p. m.
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 for 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
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 Mrs. Albert Edward Walker, Hostess
at Madison Hall during the regular session. She and her assistants
request the co-operation of all and invite each student to make
the Y. W. C. A. her "home" while at the University.
THE NEW MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM.—The new Memorial
Gymnasium is situated between the athletic field and the University
golf links, and offers facilities unsurpassed in any American university.
The main exercise room is 180 by 96 feet, with a ten-foot running
track gallery of twelve laps to the mile. There is also an auxiliary
gymnasium 30 by 70 feet. The swimming pool is 30 by 75 feet,
with a gallery for spectators. A general locker room provides for
1700 full-length steel lockers, with two shower rooms. There are
also spacious locker rooms and baths for home and visiting teams as
well as special rooms for boxing, fencing, and wrestling, and three
hand-ball courts. The administration wing includes offices for the
staff, examination rooms and a large lecture room.
STUDENTS' MAIL.—In order to insure safe and prompt delivery
of mail, every student should have all mail directed to, University,
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.
Before leaving, each student should file at the post office his or
her forwarding address; otherwise, mail without return address which
comes after the student has departed, will be sent to the dead letter
office.
TEACHERS' POSITIONS.—The Appointment Committee of the
Summer Quarter 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 will be no
charge for this service except a small registration fee of $1.00 to assist
in the expenses of the Committee.
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 Registrar
of the Summer Quarter and mailed to the student. Each student
who wishes certificates sent, should file with the registrar not later
than July 17th, 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 most of the 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 college 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
to those required for entrance to the University of Virginia, and
provided, that the certificate of courses completed be approved by the
University of Virginia professor concerned.
(c) The Dean of the College will accept certificates of completion
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 in 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 on 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.
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 for 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.
