HISTORY

The Curry Memorial School of Education was founded in 1905 as one of
the academic schools of the University. It was endowed by gifts of $100,000
from John D. Rockefeller and $50,000 from the General Education Board, and
was named in honor of Dr. J. L. M. Curry, the Southern educator. There

were originally two professorships in the School, the Curry Memorial Professorship
of Education and the Professorship of Secondary Education. In 1914 a
chair of Educational Psychology and Principles of Teaching was added to the
School, and two years later a Professorship of School Administration was established.

In 1919 the School was organized into a Department of the University, with
four professorships, and was placed upon a professional basis similar to that
of the Departments of Law, Medicine and Engineering. The relation of the
Department of Education to the various academic schools of the University
remains close, however, since the academic training of students of Education
is obtained in the academic schools, and courses in Education are credited toward
the academic degrees.

In the spring of 1928 plans were matured to provide more adequate facilities
for observation, practice teaching, and experimental studies. The school authorities
of the City of Charlottesville and the County of Albemarle joined with the
University of Virginia in establishing a program of experimental education and
teacher-training. After the preliminary program of organization had been approved,
the General Education Board of New York City granted to the University
a subsidy of $20,000 a year for a period of two years to forward the
program and make possible its operation for the session of 1928-1929. The
Rector and Visitors of the University made a supplementary appropriation of
$5,000 annually for a period of two years, thereby giving the Department additional
funds amounting to $50,000 for the biennium, 1928-1930.

PURPOSE

The rapid development of educational science and practice has made it
necessary that ample provision be made for the professional training of those
who expect to teach or to administer school affairs. The Department of
Education, therefore, aims to provide the following:

1. An opportunity for the study of Education as an important function of
society.

2. To give the necessary technical training for teaching and administration
to:

  • a. University students, with or without experience, who intend to teach;

  • b. Secondary school principals;

  • c. Normal school teachers and administrators;

  • d. College teachers of Education;

  • e. School superintendents, supervisors, and other executives of schools
    of all grades in cities, counties, and states.

3. To develop scientific methods of testing school work and to furnish
demonstrations of the way in which these methods may best be applied, thus
developing a spirit of observation and experimentation tending to increase our
knowledge of the science and art of education.

4. To become a center of educational influence to which teachers of all
grades and kinds may come for information and educational guidance.

5. To furnish to the general public information on any phase of school
organization, administration, and supervision, thus helping to create a clearer
general understanding about Education and the State.

PEABODY HALL

Peabody Hall, the Education Building, was named in honor of George
Peabody, who in 1867 made his great gift to the cause of education in the South.
The building was made possible through a gift of $40,000 from the trustees of
the Peabody Education Fund. This amount was supplemented by an appropriation
of $12,000 from the Rector and Visitors of the University. The building
was completed in 1912, and is the home of the Curry Memorial Department of
Education.

The plans were drawn by a modern school architect, and approved by some
of the leading authorities on school architecture in this country. It is, therefore,
a model of excellence in this regard. It is one of the best equipped
buildings in the University, and has ample classroom and laboratory facilities,
and an excellent auditorium equipped with a modern motion picture
machine. Modern requirements in heating, lighting and ventilation are exemplified
in its construction without sacrificing conformity to the general style of
classic architecture prevailing in the University.

Adequate provision is made for a Departmental library, seminar rooms,
classrooms, psychological laboratory, and offices for the administrative officers
and teaching staff of the Department.

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. The library was made possible through the
gift of Mrs. Anna Tuttle Heck of Professor Heck's private library containing
approximately 2,000 well-selected books on Education, and the transfer of all
books on Education from the General Library of the University. Splendid
equipment was procured through a gift of money from students in Education,
the Education Club and friends of Professor Heck. A gift of $3,000 from Mr.
Alfred W. Erickson of New York City has enabled the Department so to
strengthen its professional library as to offer very superior facilities to its
rapidly growing student body, by making possible the enrichment of every
course now offered. At present the library consists of approximately ten
thousand select books covering most fields of Education, a complete file of
publications of the United States Bureau of Education, various national, state
and foreign documents, state school laws, annual reports of state superintendents
of public instruction, city superintendents' reports, etc. Files of the
leading educational magazines are available for free use of the students. Exhibits
of elementary and high school texts for comparative studies are made
available through the generosity of various publishers.

GENERAL REGULATIONS

REGISTRATION

Registration.—Applicants seeking admission to the Department of Education
must present themselves to the Dean at some time during the first three
days of the session. All women students must first register at the office of
the Dean of Women, 22 East Lawn.


7

Page 7

Delayed Registration.—Any student who fails to present himself for
registration during the first three days of the session will not be admitted unless
he can explain his delay in a manner satisfactory to the Dean and will be
charged a delayed registration fee.

Admission to the Department of Education During the Session.—No applicant
for admission to the Department of Education who has not been previously
registered therein will be admitted after October 1, unless the Committee
on Admissions is satisfied that, in view of his record, he is likely to prove successful
with the work undertaken in spite of the handicap of late entrance.

Registration after the Christmas Recess.—On the first week-day after
the Christmas Recess, every student is required to register by attending all
the classes or laboratory exercises at which he is due that day. No further
formality is necessary. Any student failing to register thus will be required
to pay the delayed registration fee, and will be liable to penalties imposed for
unexcused absences. But if the delay is due to illness or other providential
cause the Dean is authorized to remit the fee.

RESIDENCE AND ATTENDANCE

The Academic Year begins on the Thursday preceding the nineteenth
of September and continues for thirty-nine weeks. Thanksgiving Day and Jefferson
Day are holidays, and there is a Christmas recess beginning on the
last week-day before the twenty-third of December and closing on the evening
of the second of January.

Attendance is required of each student throughout the entire session,
with the exception of holidays, unless he receives permission to be temporarily
absent, or to withdraw before the close of the session. While in residence each
student is required to attend regularly all lectures and other prescribed exercises
in the course which he pursues, or else suffer such penalties as may be imposed
for unexcused absences.

Voluntary Withdrawal from the University requires the written consent
of the Dean of the Department of Education.

Enforced Withdrawal is inflicted by the departmental faculty for habitual
delinquency in class, habitual idleness or any other fault which prevents the
student from fulfilling the purposes for which he should have come to the
University.

Absence from Examinations.—Written examinations are an essential part
of the work of every course in the University, and attendance upon them
is required of every student. Absence may be excused only on the ground of
sickness on the day of examination (attested by a physician's certificate), or
for other imperative cause which may be approved by the several faculties of
the University.

Special Examinations are granted only upon prompt application therefor,
and in case the applicant's absence from the regular examination has been
excused.


8

Page 8

Honor System.—All examinations are held under the Honor System, and
an unpledged paper is counted a total failure. In matters of class standing as
well students are expected to regard themselves as governed by the law of
honor.

Prohibition of Credit.—An act of the Legislature prohibits merchants and
others, under severe penalties, from crediting minor students. The license to
contract debts, which the President is authorized to grant, is limited (except
when the parent or guardian requests otherwise in writing) to cases of urgent
necessity.

CONDUCT

Conduct.—The laws of the University require from every student decorous,
sober, and upright conduct as long as he remains a member of the University,
whether he be within the precincts or anywhere else. Drunkenness, gambling,
and dissoluteness are strictly forbidden, and the President may dismiss from the
University for the residue of the current session every student found guilty of
them, or may administer such other discipline as seems best under the circumstances.

The President will dismiss from the University every student convicted of
public drunkenness, or of other conduct reflecting serious discredit upon the
University.

In all cases of discipline, the law requires that the student must first be
informed of the objections to his conduct and afforded an opportunity of explanation
and defense.

The publication or sale of anonymous publication is forbidden.

Motor driven vehicles either owned or operated by students are prohibited
from parking in the roadways or elsewhere on the University grounds between
the hours of 9:00 a. m. and 3:30 p. m. At no time may they park in the alleys,
near fire hydrants, or on curves. However, students suffering from serious
physical disability may be granted permits to park.

MEDICAL ATTENDANCE

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 University Physician; and, if necessary, to nursing in the University
Hospital at a reasonable charge for his maintenance while there. This
exemption from charge does not apply to cases requiring surgical operation,
treatment of the eye, ear, nose and throat, or to constitutional disorders from
which the student in question was suffering at the time of his coming to the
University. Nor is the University responsible for the expense incurred through
the employment of private nurses, nesessitated by severe illness of students, or
through the maintenance of quarantine precautions in contagious cases. Students
who take the responsibility of boarding at houses not approved by the Board
of Health forfeit the right of medical attendance. Any student sent to the University
Hospital by the advice and under the care of a physician other than the
University Physician will be required to pay the regular hospital charges for
private patients.

EXPENSES

Payment of Fees.—When the aggregate charge for University fee, tuition
fee, laboratory fees and room rent does not exceed $50 for the session, the
total amount shall be paid upon registration.

If said fees aggregate more than $50, but do not exceed $100, one-half
thereof shall be paid upon registration and the remainder at the beginning of
the second term.

When the fees aggregate more than $100, payment shall be made one-third
upon registration; one-third at the opening of the second term and the remainder
at the opening of the third term.

If any payment remain unpaid for fifteen days after the date on which

the delinquency, and such student shall by him be required at once to cease
attending lectures, using laboratories, library, gymnasium, athletic grounds or
buildings, boarding at the dining hall, and making use of any other privilege
as a student until his financial relations with the University have been arranged
satisfactorily with the Bursar.

Return of Fees.—A student withdrawing within five days after registering
shall have his fees refunded in full, except the sum of $5 to cover cost of registration,
and his name shall be stricken from the rolls.

If he withdraw or is dropped from the rolls for any cause after the fifth
day of the term and before the middle thereof, his fees shall be returned prorata.

If he withdraw or be dropped from the rolls for any cause after the middle
of any term no refund shall be made for that term, except in case of sickness
when the refund shall be pro-rated upon certificate of the University Physician
or other reputable medical practitioner.

In any case a minimum charge of $5 shall be made to cover cost of registration.

Laboratory fees shall be refunded upon statement of professor in charge
except where the withdrawal is within five days after registering.

Regulation Concerning Registration as Virginia Student.—In order to be
considered a Virginia student, it is necessary that the applicant's parents be
domiciled in the State if he be under twenty-one years of age; or if he has
attained his majority, that he himself be domiciled in said State; and that either
his parents or the applicant for admission shall have been bona fide taxpayers
in the State of Virginia for at least two years prior to said application.

Sons of Regular Officers of the United States Army, Navy, Marine
Corps, Coast Guard, or Public Health Service,
whether on the active or retired
list, irrespective of the location of their posts of duty, are accorded the
privilege of registering under the rules applicable to the registration of Virginia
students.

Superintendents and Teachers of Public Schools Exempt from Fees.—
White male teachers and superintendents of the public schools of Virginia will
be admitted, during the last three months of the session, to the Academic Schools


10

Page 10
of the University without payment of fees (except those charged in laboratory
courses), upon presentation of certificates that they have been teachers in the
public schools of the State during the year. Applicants for admission as teachers
are required to send in their names to the President of the University not
later than March 5.

Ministers of Religion and Candidates for the Ministry.—Ministers of religion
may attend any of the Academic Schools of the University without
payment of the tuition fee. The same privilege will be extended to any young
man who submits testimonials that he is an approved candidate for the ministry,
and unable to meet without aid the expenses of an education.

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 nine months. As necessary
expenses are reckoned here University, tuition, and athletic and Topics fees,
laboratory fees, lodging, board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling
expenses, or pocket money. For each department 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.

                       
VIRGINIANS  NON-VIRGINIANS 
Low  Average  Liberal  Low  Average  Liberal 
University Fee  $ 50.00  $ 50.00  $ 50.00  $ 60.00  $ 60.00  $ 60.00

The Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships in the Department of Education:
thirty scholarships annually, twenty each with a value of $200, and ten
each with a value of $100, were established in 1918 by action of the General
Assembly of Virginia. The holder must be a Virginian in need of financial assistance
in order to attend the University; and he must pledge himself to teach
or engage in some other form of public school work in Virginia for at least
two years, or, failing this, to repay to the University the full value of the
scholarship. Blank forms of application may be had upon request to Dean John
L. Manahan, Chairman of the Committee on State Teachers' Scholarships.
Appointments prior to September 1 of each year are made upon the recommendation
of division superintendents. Any scholarships unassigned on September
1 are open to applicants from the State at large.

In addition to the Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships, there are a number
of other scholarships in the University available for students of Education.
A detailed description of them is given in the General Catalogue of the University.

LOAN FUNDS AND STUDENT SELF-HELP

The University is in possession of funds from which loans are made to
deserving students in need of such assistance. An account of these loans is
given in the General Catalogue. Inquiries concerning them should be addressed
to the Bursar.

Opportunities for obtaining remunerative employment are afforded to students


12

Page 12
who are desirous by this means of partially paying their way through the
University. It is difficult to give definite assurance of employment to a student
before he reaches the University, but it may be stated that any student with
sufficient resources to carry him through the first half of the session can be
reasonably sure of obtaining work which will help defray his expenses for the
rest of the academic year. Information as to employment may be obtained by
addressing the Director, Box 1487, University, Virginia.

BOARD AND LODGING

Dormitories.—Students may reside in the University dormitories, in their
homes, or in private houses approved by the President. The President will
withdraw from the approved list any house in which the regulations as to the
conduct of students are not observed. Any change of residence during the session
should be reported at the office of the Registrar.

For rules governing the rental and occupancy of University dormitories,
and the rates charged for the same, see below. For list of private lodging houses,
with rates, apply to the Bursar.

The University Dormitories

The dormitories of the University of Virginia consist of The Halls, East
Lawn and West Lawn, East Range and West Range, Dawson's Row, and
Randall Building.

Hot water heat and electric light are furnished throughout the dormitories.

Each occupant of a dormitory room must provide a pillow, pillow cases,
single sheets, blankets, towels, etc., and whatever rugs, curtains, etc., he may
desire.

Description and Rates

The Halls.—The most comfortable, best-equipped, and most modern rooming
accomodations in the University or in the city are to be found in the new
University dormitories, erected in 1929. Ths group of eight buildings stands on
the crest of the slope west of Monroe Hill, with an outlook on the Ragged
Mountains and the range of the Blue Ridge, and is within less than three
minutes walking distance from the gymnasium, the academic, engineering and
law class-rooms, and the University Commons.

These eight buildings are divided into twelve separate units, known as
Halls, each with its individual entrance, and each bearing the name of some
professor, distinguished in the history of the University. The buildings are
of three stories and of full fire-proof brick and cement construction throughout.
They provide one hundred and fifty-three two-room apartments, of living-room
and bedroom, each apartment intended to accommodate two students.

All of the rooms are approximately fifteen feet square. Each living-room
has an open fire place and is furnished with a desk with drawers, a table with
drawer, a steel waste-basket, two rocking-chairs, two straight chairs and floor-plugs
for reading lamps. Each bedroom has two large built-in clothes closets,
and is furnished with two single beds, two chiffoniers, and two straight chairs.
All furniture is new, of excellent quality and attractive design, the bed-springs
and mattresses of especially high grade.


13

Page 13

There is an average of one bathroom to every five students. The bathrooms,
each equipped with showers and an individual built-in steel locker and
a medicine chest with mirror for each student using it, are so placed that every
bed-room, with one sole exception, opens directly into a bath.

Telephone service is provided in each Hall. Trunks and packing cases will
not be permitted in the apartments of The Halls dormitories. They must be
delivered to the trunk room in each Hall from which the student will remove
the contents to his room. Trunks and packing cases will be stored in dry racks
located in the basement. Each apartment will ordinarily be occupied by two
students. The rental for the nine months of the regular session is $150 per
student (or $300 for each apartment).

East Lawn and West Lawn are of one-story brick construction. They
contain thirty-eight rooms, each approximately twelve feet square, located between
the pavilions and opening into colonnades running the entire length of
"The Lawn." The rental of twenty-seven of the rooms for the session, is $125
for one occupant or $170 for two occupants. The remaining nine rooms, called
Bachelors' Row, rent for $115 for one occupant, or $160 for two occupants.
These rooms are reserved for applicants for senior degrees.

East Range and West Range consist of forty-six one-story brick rooms,
approximately twelve feet square, built in sections running the entire length
of "The Ranges," and opening into arcades. In addition, there are two two-story
brick houses called the Old Gymnasium and the Club House, containing
fourteen rooms, approximately fifteen feet square. The rental of the rooms on
the Ranges, for the session, is $125 for one occupant or $170 for two. The rooms
in the Old Gymnasium and the Club House rent for $80 for one occupant or
$110 for two.

Dawson's Row consists of a series of four eight-room two-story brick
houses, and a six-room one-story brick house, located on the southwest side of
the grounds. The rooms are approximately fifteen feet square. The rental
of fifty-one of the rooms, for the session, is $95 for one occupant or $130 for
two. Four of the rooms rent for $60 for one occupant or $80 for two.

All of the rooms on the Lawns and Ranges and in Dawson's Row are provided
with running cold water. For each of the Lawns and Ranges one bathhouse
is provided and there is a bath-house in Dawson's Row.

Randall Building.—A two-story brick building, located at the south end of
East Range, containing thirty-one single rooms ten by fourteen, ten by fifteen
and ten by sixteen; eight double rooms fourteen by fifteen, fifteen by fifteen
and fifteen by seventeen; one double room with study-room attached. Single
rooms rent at $80 to $90; double rooms $125 for one occupant or $150 for
two occupants. Double room with study-room attached, for one occupant
$135, or $180 for two occupants.

The furnishing of the rooms on the Lawns and Ranges, in Dawson's
Row and Randall Building is as follows: For one occupant—an enameled iron
bed with comfortable springs and mattress, a chiffonier, a table, a straight chair
and a rocking-chair. For two occupants—two single beds or one double-deck


14

Page 14
bed with springs and mattresses, one chiffonier, one desk or two tables, one
rocking-chair and two straight chairs.

BOARD

Board.—Students may board at the University Commons, at their homes,
or in private boarding houses or restaurants approved by the President. For
cost of board at the University Commons, see below. For list of private
boarding houses, with rates, apply to the Bursar.

University Commons

Meals may be had at the University Commons, a handsome building overlooking
the McIntire Theatre and within two minutes walk of the dormitories.
The interior of the beautiful panelled main room makes a charming atmosphere
for dining and the furnishings are attractive. The meals are prepared
by an experienced chef under the supervision of a trained dietitian and careful
attention is given to quality and service. Board is supplied at cost and it is
expected that the rate will in no event exceed $25 per month. Since the
capacity of the Commons limits the number accommodated to about 350, it is
essential that students make early application for reservations to Dr. E. A.
Kincaid, Manager, 15 Monroe Hall.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

JEFFERSON SOCIETY

Connected with the University is the Jefferson Society founded in 1825
to provide for common improvement in debate, to promote general culture
among its members and the student body, and to drill its members in all those
exercises which strengthen for the free duties of citizenship.

All students in regular attendance upon one or more of the schools of
the University of Virginia who are not members of any similar organization
in this institution shall be eligible to regular membership. Such candidates shall
make written application on forms provided by the Membership Committee.
These forms may be obtained at any of the literary meetings of the Society all
of which are open to the public. They are announced in College Topics.

WOMAN'S SELF-GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION

The Association includes all women students of the University of Virginia,
and exists to bring about a greater unity and mutual helpfulness among the
women of the University, and to promote and maintain the highest standards
of University life.

ATHLETICS

Intercollegiate and intramural athletics are under the supervision of the
Director of Athletics and his staff. The University is represented in intercollegiate
competition by both varsity and first-year football, baseball, basketball,


15

Page 15
track, cross-country, boxing, tennis, swimming and lacrosse teams. The athletic
plant is one of the finest in the South. Memorial Gymnasium contains three
basketball courts, a swimming pool, a track, boxing and wrestling rooms, and
adequate locker facilities. Scott Stadium, which seats 22,000 people, is regarded
as one of the most beautiful in the country. Lambeth Field has excellent facilities
for track and baseball. Twenty-two tennis courts and four practice fields
for mass games have been built near the Gymnasium.

STUDENT UNION

The Student Union was organized in 1932. The University has taken
over Madison Hall for use as a center of student activities under the supervision
of the Union of which all students are considered members. The affairs
of the Union are conducted by the Student Senate. Facilities are offered for
meetings of students organizations and groups and a social program is carried
forward throughout the session.

In the reading room are newspapers from many of the cities in the South
and East. Recreation rooms are also provided. Offices of College Topics, the
Magazine, Corks and Curls, the Dulaney Memorial Library and the Student
Self Help Bureau are located in the building.

PUBLICATIONS

College Topics is a bi-weekly newspaper published by the students and
devoted to the interests of the University at large.

Corks and Curls is the University Annual, its aim being to present some
record of the scholastic, religious, athletic and social activities of the college
year. Its publication is in the hands of a chartered corporation formed by the
fraternities and literary societies of the University.

The University of Virginia Magazine is a literary journal published seven

RELIGIOUS WORK

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION, INCORPORATED

History.—The Young Men's Christian Association of the University of
Virginia which has its headquarters on the second floor of Madison Hall was
founded October 12, 1858, during the period of the University's expansion and
reformation. Bruce, in his "History of the University of Virginia," states: "The
spirit of reformation was expressed in (1) the abolition of the uniform law,
and also the law that required the students to leave their beds at dawn; (2)
the adoption of the Honor System; (3) and the organization of the Young
Men's Christian Association." It was the first college to adopt the constitution
of the Y. M. C. A., and thus has the honor of being the oldest college association
in the world.

Object.—The object of this Association, as set forth generally in the
Charter, is more specifically stated as follows:— to foster and promote Christian
fellowship among the students of the University of Virginia by encouraging
their participation in religious activities; by provoking their serious thought on
great moral and religious issues; by inculcating in them the spirit of service;
and by providing for them, and increasing their appreciation of, social entertainment
of a wholesome and beneficial nature.

Work.—The Association affords opportunity for voluntary study of the
Bible and also of problems of national and international interest, particularly
with reference to the possibility of solution by the fundamental principles of
Christianity.

Discussion groups are addressed by prominent men and faculty members
conduct regularly increasing numbers of special groups as interests are developed.
Members of the Association work with the Boy Scout troops and cooperate
with community agencies in other forms of welfare work. Under the
Deputation Committee, student leaders and groups of students visit various
preparatory and high schools in the State to conduct religious meetings, and
they also carry on evangelistic campaigns in various communities throughout
the State. Handbooks and student directories to the number of more than 2,000
are distributed each fall. Various conferences are attended by delegated representatives
from the Association both in the State and outside when possible.

Equipment.—Through the munificence of Mrs. William E. Dodge and
family, of New York City, the Association possesses a very handsome building,
which was erected in 1905, at a cost, including furnishings, of about $80,000,
and which is maintained in part by an endowment of over $16,000, subscribed
by students, alumni, and friends of the University. This building, called "Madison
Hall" in honor of President Madison, who was intimately connected with


17

Page 17
the early history of the University, faces the north front of the Rotunda.

The budget for the support of the Association work is supplied by the income
from a small endowment, the Chapel fund and rents.

REGULATIONS

(1) The Session-Hour.—All courses are measured in terms of the session-hour
as a unit. A session-hour is one hour a week throughout the session
of lecture or recitation, or two hours a week throughout the session of laboratory
work.

(2) Maximum and Minimum Number of Session-Hours.—Each student
is required to undertake each session courses aggregating at least 15 session-hours
(with the exception noted under Probation below). This number
may be increased in the following cases:

(I) Any first-year student may take 18 session-hours, provided he is credited
with 6 session-hours of advanced standing.

(II) A student not in his first year in the Department of Education may
take 18 session-hours, provided he (a) has passed in the preceding session or
in the third term thereof courses aggregating 15 session-hours, or (b) is in his
graduating year and needs 18 session-hours for his degree.

(III) A student not in his first year may take 21 session-hours provided
he passed in the preceding session or in the third term thereof courses aggregating
18 session-hours.

(IV) Any student whose term grade (or class grade, if the term grade is
not available) for the first or second term is at least 75 per cent, in each of his
courses, may take 3 additional session-hours for the ensuing term.

Exceptions to the above regulations will be allowed only by special permission
of the Faculty.

Physical Education is not counted in the maximum and minimum requirements
detailed above.

(3) Grade.—The grade of a student in any course either for a term or
for the session, is determined by his class standing and his examination grade,
combined in such proportion as the professor in charge of the course in question
may decide. Class standing in any course is determined by the regularity
of the student's attendance upon the lectures (and laboratory or other similar
exercises) of the course, and by the quality of his work, as indicated by his
recitation grades, written tests, laboratory work, etc. For passing in any course
in the Department of Education a grade of 75 per cent. is required.

(4) Exclusion from Courses, Probation and Suspension:

(I) Exclusion from Courses:

1. A student who is evidently making no real progress in a course, may,
at any time during the session, be excluded from the course by the Dean upon
recommendation of the instructor concerned.

2. A student whose term grade in a course is less than 50 per cent., or
who discontinues the course without permission of the Dean, or who is absent
without excuse from the term examination, will be excluded from the course.

(II) Probation and Suspension:

1. Probation is a state of warning, involving withdrawl from the student


18

Page 18
of certain privileges enumerated below. Suspension means forced withdrawal
from the Department.

2. A student will be placed on probation if, in any term, he does not pass
on 6 hours of work; and, if he shall be excluded from a course or courses, he
must, in order to avoid probation, pass on a number of hours 6 in excess of
the number from which he is excluded.

A student will be suspended if, in any term, he does not pass on 3 hours
of work; and, if he shall be excluded from a course or courses, he must, in
order to escape suspension, pass on a number of hours 3 in excess of the number
from which he is excluded.

3. A student on probation must carry at least 12 hours of work or be
suspended. A student not on probation must carry at least 15 hours of work
or be placed on probation.

4. No student may remain on probation for more than two terms in his
entire college course. If his record is such as to invoke probation a third time,
he will be suspended. No student suspended a second time may re-enter the
Department.

5. No student on probation may be a member of any student organization
which publicly represents the University, such as an athletic team, a musical
club or a student publication.

6. Suspension, if imposed during the session, applies to the remainder of
the regular session; if imposed at the end of the session, it applies to the whole
of the subsequent session.

7. Probation or suspension may be absolved by the completion of 3 session-hours
of work in one term of the Summer Quarter.

8. A student who is permitted to withdraw from the University during the
session will be re-admitted only on probation if, at the time of his withdrawal,
he was on probation. A student previously suspended will be re-admitted only
on probation.

9. The application of these regulations is automatic. A student may, however,
appeal in writing to the Committee on Rules and Courses for relief from
their application. The Committee will not accept remediable defects of vision
or outside remunerative work as excuses for failure. A student is expected to
have visual defects corrected, and if much outside work is done, to carry a
reduced schedule of courses.

(5) Absence from Examinations will not be excused except for sickness
on the day of examination, attested by a physician's certificate, or for other
cause which the Faculty by special order may approve. An unexcused absence is
counted as a total failure.

A student excused from more than one-half of his term examinations on
account of illness may not be a member of any student organization which
publicly represents the University, such as an athletic team, a musical club, or a
student publication, until he has taken his examinations.

No student may remain in the Department if he misses all the examinations
of two consecutive terms on account of illness.

(6) Special Examinations.—A student whose absence from an examination
is excused, in accordance with (5) above, is entitled to a special examination
on a date during the regular session to be arranged between himself and
the professor in charge of the examination.


19

Page 19

(7) Re-Examinations.—A candidate for a degree who fails on only one
of his courses during his final session of candidacy is entitled to a special reexamination
on the work of that course before the final day, provided that he
average at least 65 per cent. on the work of the three terms, and provided the
professor in charge recommends that the candidate be granted a re-examination.
The professor in charge is to decide whether the candidate is to stand a
re-examination upon the whole course, or upon some portion or portions of the
course. No fee is charged for such re-examination.

It should be carefully noted that no student is entitled to more than one
re-examination on a given course without repeating the course; and that no
re-examination may be taken on a course for which the student was not registered
during his final session of candidacy for a degree.

(8) Reports.—Reports are sent at the end of each term to the parent or
guardian of each student.

In addition to the above, a report on the standing of each first-year student
in the Department is sent to the student's parent or guardian early in November.

(9) Voluntary Withdrawal.—Voluntary withdrawal from the University
requires the written consent of the Dean, as well as the consent of the student's
parent or guardian, if he is a minor. Any student who withdraws without permission
will be recorded as having been suspended. A student who withdraws
immediately before an examination period, except for providential reasons, is
not permitted to re-enter the University for the succeeding term.

(10) Enforced Withdrawal is inflicted for habitual delinquency in class,
habitual idleness, or any other fault which prevents the student from fulfilling
the purposes for which he should have come to the University. See also Suspension,
above.

(11) Change of Studies.—No change can be made in a student's program
of studies except with the written consent of the Dean, together with
official notification by the Registrar. No permit for change of courses will be
issued after the end of the first week of each term. Any student who drops a
course without permission will receive a grade of zero in that course; and no
credit may be received for any portion of a course attended before formal permission
has been granted as outlined above.

(12) Absence from Lectures may be excused by the Dean, but only for
sickness or other imperative cause. Any explanation of an absence which a
student has to offer must be made in writing to the Dean within one week after
the absence. But no excuse for an absence may be submitted after the beginning
of an examination period.

Any student not on probation is allowed 2 absences without penalty each
term in each course, and a student who passed, in the preceding term, on all
courses taken, aggregating not less than 15 term-hours, is allowed 4 absences
without penalty each term in each course. But the performance of written work
and laboratory work is not affected by the allowance of absences without penalty.

Each unexcused absence (in excess of absences without penalty) from a
class exercise in any term will cause one point to be deducted from the student's
term grade.


20

Page 20

A total of more than 10 unexcused absences (in excess of absences without
penalty) in any term will cause a student to be placed on probation. Probation
imposed for absences is called "attendance probation," and it carries the penalties
of probation imposed for failure in courses. If a student incurs attendance probation
while on probation for failure in courses he will be suspended.

No student who was, for any reason, absent from more than 50 per cent. of
the lectures of a course in any term can receive a grade on the course in that
term. This regulation does not apply to students on the Dean's List.

The laws relating to absence from the University of members of athletic
teams are found in the General Catalogue. The same regulations apply, mutatis
mutandis,
to members of other student organizations.

The Dean's List.—A student who passes on not less than 15 session-hours
during a session with an average of at least 85 per cent., and with no session
grade less than 75 per cent., will be placed on the Dean's List, and will remain
on the List as long as he receives an average of at least 85 per cent., on at least
15 session-hours per term and receives no term grade less than 75 per cent. in
any course. Any student on the Dean's List failing to maintain this standard of
excellence will be automatically dropped from the List. A student once dropped
from the List can again make the Dean's List by meeting the above standard for
entire session. A student on the Dean's List is not subject to the regulations limiting
the issuance of leaves of absence from the University, nor does absence
from any class entail on such student any penalty, affecting class standing, imposed
for absence alone.

COÖPERATIVE PROGRAM BETWEEN THE SCHOOL BOARD OF
THE CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE AND THE
UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA

Facilities for observation and directed teaching and for practical educational
research are made available through the coöperation with the University of the
school systems of the City of Charlottesville and the County of Albemarle.

The Coöperative Teacher-Training Program entered into between the School
Board of the City of Charlottesville and the University of Virginia provides for
the employment of critic teachers in the following subjects: English, Latin,
Mathematics, Natural Science and Social Science.

The agreement as adopted includes the following regulations:

1. The critic teachers shall be chosen by the University with the approval of
the superintendent of schools, it being recognized that no person may be elected
by the School Board without the recommendation of the superintendent of
schools.

2. The duties of the critic teachers shall be as follows:

A. To teach two regular classes in the high school such as shall be agreed
upon by the critic teacher, the principal of the high school and the superintendent
of schools.

B. To serve as critic teacher for the direction of the teaching of such student
teachers as are assigned to him.


21

Page 21

C. To perform such routine duties in connection with the classes taught as
would fall to the lot of any high school teacher in a city school system in Virginia.

D. To conduct such experimental studies as the wisdom of the critic teacher,
the principal of the high school and the superintendent of schools may deem advisable
for the improvement of the school. Proposals for all such experimental
studies shall originate with the Department of Education in the University of
Virginia.

3. The salaries of the critic teachers shall be paid as follows:

A. The City School Board shall pay the pro rata amount for the two regular
classes taught that would be paid to any high school teacher for doing the same
work according to the fixed salary schedule in effect from time to time.

B. The remainder of the salary shall be paid by the University.

4. The critic teacher may teach a special methods course in the subject-matter
field of his assignment, this work to be done at the University.

COÖPERATIVE PROGRAM BETWEEN THE ALBEMARLE COUNTY
SCHOOL BOARD AND THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA

The Coöperative Program entered into between the School Board of the
County of Albemarle and the University of Virginia provides facilities for observation
and practice in the high schools of the County for the training of high
school teachers and principals under a director of high school supervision; and
laboratory training for rural supervisors in the elementary schools of the County
under two assistant professors of rural supervision. Provision is also made for
the training of division superintendents of schools under the direction of Superintendent
A. L. Bennett.

CRITIC TEACHERS AND DEPARTMENTAL SUPERVISORS

The duties of the critic teachers and departmental supervisors in the County
high schools are as follows:

1. To act as general departmental supervisor in the subject-matter field of
his assignment.

2. To teach two regular classes in the high school of which he is a member
of the teaching staff, such as shall be assigned by the Director of Supervision
acting in agreement with the principal of the high school and division superintendent
of schools.

3. To serve as critic teacher for the direction of the teaching of such student
teachers as are assigned to him by the Director of Supervision.

4. To teach a special methods course in the subject-matter field of his assignment.

5. To conduct such studies of instructional problems as are approved by the
Director of Supervision as being in the interest of the improvement of instruction
in his subject.

6. To coöperate in directing the studies of such graduate students as are
assigned to him by the Director of Supervision, acting in agreement with the
Professor of Secondary Education.


22

Page 22

7. To recommend to the principal pupil-assignment to studies in his departmental
field.

DUTIES OF THE RURAL SUPERVISORS

The coöperative program between the University and the County of Albemarle
made possible the employment of two superior rural supervisors, bringing
the supervisory staff for elementary schools to five. These two supervisors, in
addition to supervising all elementary schools in the districts assigned to them,
direct the training of rural supervisors.

In order that there may be adequate opportunity for experimentation in one-room
schools two schools within easy reach of the University have been chosen
for special study and demonstration by the rural supervisors. It is hoped that the
record of achievement in these two schools may serve as an example and stimulus,
not only to the schools of the county, but of a much wider area.

COURSES IN ELEMENTARY EDUCATION

Students who have completed two years of work in a standard Teachers'
College or equivalent, thus qualifying for the Normal Professional Certificate as
issued by the Virginia State Board of Education, may meet the requirements for
the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education, with a major in Elementary
Education, so far as professional courses are concerned by taking such courses
from those listed as the Dean of the Department of Education may specify.
Ordinarily six session-hours of credit in professional courses in Elementary
Education offered in this University will be required. Exceptions to this may be
made in the case of students who have already accumulated credits representing
well rounded preparation for elementary school work. Qualified students may
take one graduate course in meeting the requirements. It should be clearly
understood that students expecting to major in Elementary Education should
have already obtained credit for Practice Teaching and for such courses in
Public School Music, Fine and Industrial Arts and Physical Education, as are
required of elementary teachers by the Virginia State Board of Education under
present certificate requirements. Students who do not have credit for such
courses may take any or all of them in the Summer Quarter of the University.

TRAINING OF ELEMENTARY SUPERVISORS

Students preparing for elementary school supervision must have (1) previous
training equivalent to that required for the Virginia Normal Professional
Certificate, and (2) at least two years of successful teaching experience in elementary
schools attested by letters of recommendation from division superindents
of school under whom the teaching was done.

It is a general requirement in connection with Education B4 that students
shall be present for the opening of the schools in Albemarle County for the
purpose of studying the problems of school organization. The schools usually
open during the first week in September.


23

Page 23

COLLEGIATE PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE

Recipients of the Bachelor of Science in Education will receive the Collegiate
Professional Certificate, the highest form of certificate for high school
teachers issued by the State Board of Education. This certificate is valid for ten
years, renewable for a similar period, and entitles the holder to teach in both
high and elementary schools in Virginia.

Holders of Collegiate Certificates, the certificates of second rank issued by
the State Board of Education, may obtain the Collegiate Professional Certificate
by attending the University one session and taking four 3 session-hour courses
in Education.

Curricula organized to meet the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of
Science in Education fulfill both academic and professional requirements for the
highest grade of professional high school certificates issued without examination
by the various state departments of Education to holders of baccalaureate degrees.
The graduate courses in Education are recognized in states requiring
graduate study for professional certificates.

TEACHERS' CERTIFICATES

A resolution of the State Board of Education provides that on and after
September 1, 1929, the minimum qualifications for those persons beginning to
teach in an accredited high school shall be a baccalaureate degree from a standard
four-year college.

In accordance with the above regulations it will not be necessary after September
1, 1929, to issue to incoming teachers the Special or Junior College
Certificate. The new requirement for high school teachers will not be retroactive.

THE SUMMER QUARTER

The Summer Quarter is an integral part of the University year. Courses in
the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as in the Department of Education, are
the same in character and in credit value as in any other Quarter of the University.
Degrees are conferred upon men and women upon exactly the same
terms for work done in the Summer Quarter when the degree requirements are
fully met. Those who contemplate completing their degree requirements in the
Summer Quarter should keep clearly in mind, in estimating the time that will be
required, that the normal amount of credit which may be taken in one Summer
Quarter is 6 session-hours.

Candidates for a degree 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. This certificate must be acceptable both to the
Dean of the Summer Quarter and to the Dean of the Department in which the
degree will be obtained. The certificate must bear the official signature of the
head of the candidate's college and must specify the character and content of the
courses passed by the candidate and must give his grades. In every case the candidate
must spend at least three full Summer Quarters or an equivalent time at
the University in order to meet the residence requirements.


24

Page 24

The Master's degree may be obtained by properly qualified persons in
three Summer Quarters. In no case is this degree to be conferred upon any
person who has not attended and done graduate work three full Summer Quarters
or the equivalent time in the regular session of the University and the
Summer Quarter.

All persons who are looking forward ultimately to taking a degree through
summer work are urgently requested to file with the Dean of the Summer
Quarter an official statement of their entrance requirements and work for which
college credit is desired. Blanks for this purpose will be mailed upon application.

First Term begins June 17 and ends July 27. Second Term begins July 29
and ends August 31.

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, August 30, at 8 o'clock, when the degrees will
be conferred.

Catalogue and further information may be obtained by addressing Secretary
Summer Quarter, Box 1337, University, Virginia.

BUREAU OF TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS

Educational Tests.—The Department of Education maintains a Bureau of
Tests and Measurements as a feature of its extra-University service. Select
standard tests in school subjects will be supplied to cities, counties and individual
schools at cost. Members of the Faculty of Education will visit the schools to be
tested, train teachers in the use of the tests and personally direct the giving and
scoring of them, provided the necessary traveling expenses are borne by the
schools served.

Mental Tests.—In connection with its work in educational psychology, the
Department undertakes to assist school authorities in the diagnosis and training
of backward and gifted children. Assistance will be rendered in the making of
mental surveys and the establishment of special classes. A clinic will be maintained
for the study of cases accessible to the University and the services of the
professor in charge will be available to any community in Virginia at the cost
of the necessary test materials and traveling expenses.

Any school official desiring the services of the Bureau of Tests and Measurements
should address the Dean of the Department of Education.

BUREAU OF APPOINTMENTS

The University of Virginia maintains a Bureau of Appointments in charge
of a committee consisting of Professors Manahan, Smithey, Metcalf and Lewis.
The services of the bureau are free to all teachers and prospective teachers seeking
positions in secondary schools (both public and private), normal schools, and
colleges. Correspondence with regard to appointment should be addressed to the
Bureau of Appointments, A. M. Jarman, Secretary, Room D, Peabody Hall,
University, Virginia.

PHI DELTA KAPPA FRATERNITY

A chapter of the national honorary educational fraternity of Phi Delta
Kappa has been organized in connection with the Department of Education.
Under the constitution of the fraternity, only those students are eligible to
membership who expect to make teaching or administration of schools a permanent
vocation, and who give evidence of superior qualities of character,
scholarship and initiative. The standards of scholarship governing election to
membership in the fraternity are similar to those prescribed for election to Phi
Beta Kappa.

The purpose of the fraternity as stated in its constitution is "to develop
among the students of Education at the University of Virginia the spirit of
`Research, Service and Leadership'," and to endeavor by every worthy means
at its command to create and foster fellowship and true fraternalism among
the members of the society.

EDUCATION CLUB

An Education Club is conducted for the purpose of fostering a scientific
study of educational problems. Membership is open to all students taking
courses in Education, teachers, principals and superintendents now in service,
and members of the faculty of the University who are willing to lend their
influence and efforts toward placing the teaching profession in Virginia and
the South on a professional basis.
