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 is in the
University Commons at a point on the campus convenient of access
for all students. The management makes a special effort to render the
kind of service that Summer Quarter students will most appreciate.
The sanitary conditions are of the highest and only the best quality of
food is served. The service is rendered at cost and our prices are
much lower than at any other place at the University. Accommodations
are ample and reservations need not be made. Mr. J. W. Preston,
an experienced manager is in immediate charge and inquiries may
be made of him as well as Dr. Kincaid, in charge for the University.
REDUCED RAILROAD RATES.—Reduced rates on the round
trip identification plan will be authorized from points on the Chesapeake
and Ohio and the Norfolk and Western Railroads and from
Southeastern territory with the exception of stations on the New
Orleans Great Northern Railroad and the Winston-Salem Southbound
Railway. The basis will be one and one-half fare for the
round trip, minimum excursion fare $1.00, and tickets will be sold
identification certificates to ticket agents at time of purchase of
tickets.
Ask your station agent in advance of your coming about rates.
Tickets will be sold June 16th-22nd, inclusive, and July 28th, August
3rd, inclusive, final limit of all tickets September 9th, 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, 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 and a medical fee of $ .75 is
charged all students. 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
registration fee of $5.00 and $15.00 tuition.

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.
Students from Virginia who are planning to teach but have not yet
taught may secure a State Scholarship which entitles them to free tuition
in return for their pledge to teach two years in the public schools
of Virginia. A student applying for such a scholarship should have
his application endorsed by the Superintendent of the Division in which
he lives.
FEES FOR NON-VIRGINIA STUDENTS.—A registration fee
of five dollars for each term and a tuition fee of $20.00 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 paying a fee of $5.00 for each extra
course. See page 22.
Note.—Teachers outside of Virginia are not limited in the choice
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. Thomas Duckett Jones, the Physician
of the Summer Quarter, hospital phone, 548; residence phone,
103; office hours at the hospital 8:30 to 9:30 and 5:00 to 6:00. Sundays,
holidays, and Saturdays, 12:00 to 1:00 only. Moderate
charges 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 reduced
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 student, or through
the maintenance of quarantine precautions in contagious cases. Any
student sent to the University Hospital upon 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.
Late Registration and Transfer Fees.—Students who fail to register
on the days specified for the purpose must pay a special fee of
$1.00.
A fee of $1.00 is charged for each change from one course to
another after registration has been completed.
No auditors or visitors are allowed in classes unless this privilege
is mentioned in the description of the course. All who attend must
be regularly registered and enrolled.
Refund of Fees.—Students who withdraw within the period
allowed for registration and changes in program, that is, within the
first week of the session, will be reimbursed the full amount of tuition
fees and half the laboratory fees, but no other fees.
Students who withdraw after the time allowed for registration and
charges cannot be allowed reimbursement for any fees.
Formal application for withdrawal, by notice to the Registrar before
leaving the Summer Quarter, must be made and permission
granted or no remission of fees will be allowed.
PAYMENT OF FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES.—The Bursar
does not cash personal checks, but will accept them in payment of the
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
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 21st, at 8:30
a. m. There will be no classes on Saturdays in the first term except
Saturday, June 25th and Saturday, July 9th, to make up for registration
day, June 20th and Fourth of July, when there will be no
classes. 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.—The Vesper Services held in McIntire
Amphitheatre every Sunday evening at 7:30, draw thousands not
only from the Summer Quarter but from the community for miles
around. They consist of a religious address from a distinguished
speaker, special music by the Vespers Choir and individual soloists,
community singing and selections played on the big pipe organ in
the amphitheatre. These Vesper Services have always proven to be
one of the mose attractive features of the Summer Quarter. The
Service begins at half past seven o'clock.
The Vespers Choir.—The first Wednesday evening of the Summer
Quarter will be given over to the organization of the big Vespers
Choir. This will take place in Madison Hall and all who can
sing are cordially invited to attend this meeting and join the choir.
A capable director has been engaged and will be in charge. Special
anthem books will be furnished members and free instruction given
each Wednesday evening from 7:30 to 8:30. This is a real musical
opportunity.
General Assembly.—Every evening except Saturday and Sunday,
from 7:30 to 8:00 o'clock, a general assembly of students and faculty
will be held in Cabell Hall. The program will be informal and
varied, and will be musical, devotional, educational, or recreational.
Assembly will be under the direction of a faculty committee, and
will be led by members of the faculty and prominent visiting
speakers.
Convocation.—In order to provide for the increasing number of
students who complete the requirements for their degrees during the
Summer Quarter, a convocation exercise will be held Friday evening,
September 2nd, at 8 o'clock, when degrees will be conferred.
Each applicant for a degree in the Summer Quarter must submit
to the Dean of the Summer Quarter for approval by the proper
Committee on Degrees, the program of work leading to the degree
sought, not later than April 1st of the year in which the degree is to
be obtained. If the Committee approves the program, it will be submitted
to the proper faculty of the University for recommendation
to the General Faculty and will be finally approved by the General
Faculty at the meeting in June at which other degrees are approved.
REGISTRATION IN PERSON.—Those students who will need
advice before registering will register in person on June 17th, 18th or
20th in Peabody Hall.
No student will be allowed to attend any class until his registration
filed only after his fees have been paid in full. No student will be enrolled
in any course without a card showing that he has been regularly
registered for such a course and that his fees have been paid. Students
are urged, therefore, to register and pay fees promptly on the
days set aside for that purpose.
A delayed registration fee of $1.00 will be charged all persons after
June 21st.
The Registrar's office, located in Peabody Hall, will be open continuously
from 8:30 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 28th, except a certificate of attendance.
REGISTRATION BY MAIL.—Registration may be completed
by mail to June 8th. For the necessary blanks, address, Registrar
Summer Quarter, Box 149, University, Va.
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. Students who register by mail are not expected
to pay fees until after arrival at the University.
Classes of students who should register by mail:
TEACHERS who are working on a prescribed program of study.
These students should send an official transcript of their credits to the
Registrar. More careful attention can be given to the planning of
such students' work than if left until the Registration days.
GRADUATES of accredited High Schools, who are beginning
work toward a teacher's certificate. As the work for such students is
outlined for them, there will be no difficulty in their registering by
mail.
TEACHERS from out of the state. The work of such students is
outlined by the Board of Education of their own state and therefore,
they would not need advice in planning their work.
COLLEGE STUDENTS who have decided on a definite course of
study.
GRADUATE STUDENTS who have consulted with the professor
of their major subject and whose programs have been finally arranged
and approved.
PROCEDURE FOR REGISTRATION BY MAIL.—After receiving
the registration blank from the Registrar, the student should
answer all questions on the front of the card, and on a separate
sheet of paper, list the classes which he wishes to pursue. After this
card is returned to the Registrar, if the program is approved, the
Registrar will fill in the classes on the back of the registration card.
A list of the fees due will be sent to the student. Upon arrival at
the University, the student should go immediately to the Bursar, in
the Basement of Peabody Hall, pay his fees and receive a card showing
he may enter the classes for which he registered. Upon payment
of fees, registration will be considered complete and the registration
card filed in the Registrar's office.
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 expected to give prompt attention to all communications
from the librarian.
At the end of each term, the names of students who owe library
fees or who have not returned borrowed books, are sent to the Registrar.
No grades or credits are issued for such students until their
names have been cleared at the Library.
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. This
Library will be open from 8:30 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 Secretary in charge requests the co-operation of all and invites
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 handball 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,
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 field at the post office
promptly upon arrival.
Before leaving, each student should file at the post office his or
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.
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 report of 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 his or her report sent, should file with the
registrar not later than July 16th, the First Term and August 15th,
the Second Term a self-addressed government stamped envelope for
mailing it. Envelopes for this purpose may be purchased at the
Registrar's Office.
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
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 for which degree credit is designated in this catalogue
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 and content 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-five 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.
