“Not to the swift, the race;
Not to the strong, the fight;

Not to the righteous, perfect grace;
Not to the wise, the light.

“But often faltering feet
Come surest to the goal;

And they who walk in darkness meet
The sunrise of the soul.

“The truth—the wise men sought
Was spoken by a child;

The alabaster box was brought
In trembling hands defiled.

“ Not from my torch, the gleam,
But from the stars above;
Not from my _ heart, life’s crystal
stream,
But from the depths of Love.”
HENRY VAN DYKE.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE
COLLEGE

In 1844 this institution was estab-
lished by the Regents of the Uni-
versity of New York as a State Nor-
mal School. In —1890 .1t+ was_ re-
chartered by the Regents as the State
Normal College and empowered to
grant the degrees of Bachelor and
Master of Pedagogy. In 1905 the
charter was amended by the Regents
and power was granted to offer col-
legiate instruction and to offer bae-
calaureate degrees. A course of
graduate work of one year in edu-
cation is also offered to persons hold-
ing a college degree. In the spring
of 1914 the Board of Regents changed
the name of the college to New York
State College for Teachers. In Sep-
tember, 1914, occurred the death of
President William J. Milne. In
February, 1915, Dr. A. R. Brubacher
was made president of this institu-
tion, and was formally inaugurated
in April, 1915. In August, 1916,
Dean Leonard A. Blue died. In July,
1917, Dr. Harlan Hoyt Horner took
office as Dean of State College.


To the Class of 1922:

College officers are universally, and
perhaps fortunately, disposed to be-
lieve that Freshmen need advice.
Even in this brief word of greeting,
therefore, it will hardly be possible
for me to overlook the opportunity to
moralize and to give counsel. Three
things I would have each one of you
believe as you enter upon your work
at State College.

First. You will never have any
happier time in all your life than you
may have here. Make friends and
keep them. Be a part of things. Be-
long to something. Don’t hang back.
Use your talents. Get the notion
early that the honor of the College
rests in some measure upon your
shoulders. Make your career here
worth remembering.

Second. The Freshman year is the
most eritical in your course. If you
earry your work the first year, you
cannot fail thereafter unless you per-
sist in an effort to do so. Get started
early. It is really easier for an in-
telligent person to succeed in college
than to fail. Ponder that statement.
It is truer than it sounds.

Third. State College welcomes you
and wants to serve you. Your in-
structors are not organized to make
you unhappy. Don’t keep your
troubles to yourself. Consult your in-

8


structors freely, get acquainted with
your advisor early, remember that the
College officers are all anxious to help
you, and be assured that the dean
wishes always to sign himself as
Your Friend,
HARLAN H. HORNER.

To each Member of the Class of
1922:

Greeting

This handbook brings to you, mes-
sages of sincere welcome from each
member of the student body and
faculty of S. C. T. We hope that
each future year of your life may
bring to you deeper understanding
of, and love for the best that life
has to offer.

These times are very busy and ex-
citing for all of us, and may be very
sorrowful for some. In the rush of
daily life and worrying tasks never
let yourself forget that:

““We kneel, how weak, we rise, how
full of power,

Why therefore should we do ourselves
this wrong

Or others—that we are not always
strong?

That we are ever overborne with

care,
That we should ever weak or heart-
less be,

Anxious or troubled; when with us
in prayer

And joy and strength and courage are
with Thee?”

9


Do you appreciate the two big
privileges offered you,—that of hav-
ing a higher education which so many
people are denied, and that of fitting
yourself to follow one of the noblest
callings the world has ever known?

‘<Stretch out your hand and take
the world’s wide gift of Joy and
OANTY od
: . make it yours,

And give to other hearts your simple
store;

For when the whole of you is but a
part

Of joyous beauty such as e’er endures,

Only by giving can you gain the
more.’’

MEETINGS

The regular devotional meetings of
the Y. W. GC. A= are. held in the col-
lege auditorium every Weduesday
afternoon at 4:40 o’clock. The leaders
are the students, members of the
faculty, or outside speakers. These
meetings will inspire you, strengthen
your Christian ideals. Come and_ get
acquainted with all our girls. They
will help you in your college life.

MEMBERSHIP

Girts- 6f: 1922. *¥.-W; Cz Ac takes
pleasure in welcoming you to State
College. She cordially invites you _ to
become her members. When, during
the first few weeks of college, one of
the Membership Committee asks you
to join us, have your answer ready !

JOU Yo Wis At

Any woman in _ college who is a
member of an Evangelical church may
become an active member of the As-
sociation. Any other woman may
become an associate member.

{
MISSIONS

Each month we have a missionary
meeting. At these meetings an effort
is made to make- our girls realize the
importance of missionary work. Last
year each Y. W. C. A. member received
a@ small bag, in which to save her spare
pennies for this missionary work.

VOLUNTEER BIBLE AND MISSION
STUDY

The Volunteer Study Committee is

divided into three departments,—Mis-

sion Study, Bible Study, and _ organ-

ized Sunday School classes. The Mis-

sion Study classes are held both sem-

12

esters for a term of ten weeks. The
classes are in groups of ten under a
student leader. Join one of these
groups, so that you will better under-
stand the missionary situation. Last
year Y. W. C. A. set aside a week for
prayers for our sisters over the seas.
The Bible Study classes are con-
ducted by leading Glergymen of the
city during both semesters. Different
parts of the Bible are lectured upon
and are clearly explained. If you
are in doubt about the meaning of
certain parts of the Bible, join these
classes and have them explained!
No Freshman should fail to enroll
as a member of an organized Sunday
School class. These classes are held
in churebes of various denominations
under efficient teachers. These classes,
which are for college girls only, have
regular study books and class officers.

EXTENSION COMMITTEE

This work is carried on by the
Social Service chairman and her com-
mittee. Needy families are helped
financially. Last year at Christmas
time some of the girls sang Christmas
earols at the Old Ladies’ Home, thus
carrying some of their joy and cheer
to the old ladies. Then at the Y. W.
Cc. A. Christmas party each girl brought
some small article, such as a package
of breakfast food or even a toy. to
put on the Christmas tree, and after-
wards these articles were distributed
among the poor settlement families.
Last year through Y. W. C. A. almost
every girl in college joined ‘the Patri-
otic League.”

STUDENT VOLUNTEER

This Student Volunteer is one of
the strongest connecting links between

13


the student’s life in college and the
great work in the world. It is a world-
wide movement to encourage in stu-
dents an interest in foreign missions.
Our purpose is to try to present the
whole world as a field for Christian
service and to show each student her
responsibility laid down in the great
commission, ‘“‘Go ye into all the world
and preach the gospel.”

SOCIAL COMMITTEE

Y. W. C. A. has her social side too.
In the fall when the new _ students
arrive, we want to cheer them with
refreshments during the tedious pro-
cess of registration and during their
search for a boarding house. Soon
after college opens, C. A. gives a recep-
tion to the Freshmen at which they
‘will have an opportunity to get ac-
quainted with each other and with the
upper classmen. 3oth the Christmas
party in December and the Silver Bay
party in May are very popular with
the students. C. A. gives several teas
-and sings to the entire student body
during the year.

ASSOCIATION NEWS

The “‘Association News” is the maga-
zine which is published by the Na-
tional Y. W. C. A. Our association
news committee secures subscriptions
to this, magazine. makes posters to
announce every C. A. meeting, and
reports Y. W. C. A. activities for the
college papers.

CONFERENCES AND CONVENTIONS

The committee on conferences and
conventions, together with the Y. W.
Cc. A. cabinet, which is made up of
the officers and committee chairmen,

14

choose delegates to the conventions
of the association which are _ held
throughout the year. Last year sev-
eral students went to a convention at
Elmira College. This. year we: ;are
planning to have that Student Volun-
teer Conference at our State College.
This June we are sending a large dele-
gation to the Hastern Student Confer-
ence at Silver Bay, Lake George.
SILVER BAY

Have you heard of Silver Bay? If
you haven't, you will soon—just as
soon as you get acquainted with those
happy girls who attended the con-
vention there this year. It is the place
where the Northeastern Student Con-
ference of the Y. W. C. A. is held for
ten days each June. Here girls from
every college of the northeastern states
meet, hundreds of them. Silver Bay
is the place where all doubt vanishes—
where only love and happiness prevail.
It is a place of jolly good times, of
all kinds’ of games and sports, and
of wonderful sings in the twilight
hours. At Silver Bay the girls are
bound together for the one great cause
that “Thy Kingdom Come.”

“The spirit of love means a world
of peace.

"Tis the spirit of Silver Bay.”

OUR LUNCH COUNTER

Y. W. C. A. conducts a lunch counter
in the basement of the Science Build-
ing. Here you can buy good lunches
at very reasonable prices. $y patron-
izing this lunch counter, you will help
us secure funds to send more girls
to Silver Bay next year.

Hint: If you want to shorten the
name Yo W 20. “A. eallsat eas and
not Y. W. It means so much more!

COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS
The Echo

The Ecuo is the literary magazine
of the college, published monthly dur-
ing the college year. It represents
college activities, in that it publishes
stories, essays, verses, and jokes writ-
ten by the students themselves. Make
it your magazine. Contribute your
literary attempts no matter how feeble
you think them. Perhaps you are a
genius and don’t know it. The EcHo
gives you the opportunity of finding
out. Meetings are held by the editors
which are open to all the students.
They want your criticisms, your help,
your work. There is an_ extensive
exchange department, to learn
through other college magazines how
to better the Ecuo. The Echo Board
is the choice of the student body from
the nominations made by the outgoing
board. They want efficient literary
¢ritics with lots of college spirit!
Vote these people on the Echo board!

The News

The CoLLEGeE News is the weekly
paper, in which are published impor-
tant events in our college and in other
colleges, sorority and _ society notes,
notices from the offices, a weekly cal-
endar of events, and the discussion of
college interests. Get your NEws
promptly every week and keep up-to-
date. We owe the introduction of the
COLLEGE News to the Class of 1918. It
is one of the most worthy memorials
they have left at State College.

The Pedagogue

The PEDAGOGUE is the State College
Year Book, put out by the Seniors, but
representing the whole college. The

16

Junior Class elects a wide-awake, com-
petent editor-in-chief who appoints a
board which manages to gather up
every bit of readable, interesting news
and spy out every funny thing about
college that ever did or did not hap-
pen. Jointly they make out a book
which represents for you your whole
year—from your funny mistakes as
Freshmen, through all the important
events of the year, to the cap-and-
gowned pictures of your favorite Sen-
iors. All the organizations of the col-
lege will be represented in full dignity
and otherwise; pictures of the faculty
members will be an important feature;
the brilliant athletic victories which
you have helped to win by cheering
or actual playing will be immortal-
ized; that Freshman stunt which you
had a hand in—all these are repre-
sented in the Year Book better than
you could ever do it for yourself in
a stunt book. Turn a cheerful grin
upon the bustling subscription man-
ager, when he says, “Sign up? ’—and
sign up!
The Song Book

The New York State College Song
Bodk was first published in June,
1917. It is the only real song book
we have ever had. It is bound in
cloth and has a cover design in three
colors, drawn by one of the students,
It contains about ninety songs and
consists of two parts. Part One in-
cludes all State College songs, old and
new—Alma Mater songs, sorority and
fraternity songs, and class songs.
Part Two includes songs of other col-
leges and familiar old songs. AS a
whole, this song book represents State
College, past and present. The price
of the books delivered at college is
$1.00 per copy. You want to be able

17


to play and sing your college songs.
Be sure to buy a song book!

The Y. W. C. A. Handbook

This book is published for you and
is for your information and guidance.
We try to have in this handbook all
the best things of college and we hope
you will make good use of it.

SOCIAL EVENTS

Lectures—A lecture course is pre-
sented each year by the college, to
which all students are invited.

Receptions—Soon after college opens
the faculty gives a reception to the
whole student body, but especially to
the Freshmen. The Faculty Recep-
tion is followed by the Y. W. C.*"A;
Reception. One of the events of Junior
Week is a reception. Later in the
year the Sophomores receive.

Parties—The Y. W. C. A. gives two
parties a year to the college. The first
is the Christmas Party with a tree; the
second is a Silver Bay Party in May.
The entertainment is a day’s event at
Silver Bay. In the fall the Juniors
give a jolly party to the Freshmen and
late in the winter the Freshmen have
a celebration of their own. The girls
of the Home Economics Department
give a party to their Freshmen every
year. The Girls’ Athletic Association
have three or four gym frolics.

Teas—Y. W. C. A. invites you all to
come and drink tea with her in the
red room, the opening days of college.
We want to welcome you as fellow
students. The Household Economics
Department gives two or three teas to
their girls in the Practice House.
farly in the fall the sorority girls
invite the faculty and students to an
Intersorority Tea.

18


Dramatics—The Class in Dramatics
presents three splendid plays each year.
Here is a wonderful opportunity for
self-development. An interest in this
work is decidedly worth your while.

The choral class, under the direction
of Professor Belding, presents an
operetta. If you can sing, join the
class, State College needs you.

Junior Week—The first week of the
second semester is Junior Week. On
Thursday night a reception is given.
Friday night the Junior Prom is held.
Every one looks forward to this, for
it is one of the big dances of the
year. The closing event of the week
is a banquet, held on Saturday night.

Moving-up Day—This is one of the
biggest events of the college year. It
marks the beginning of the Com-
mencement activities, for it is then
that the Seniors become Alumni, while
the Juniors move into the places for-
merly occupied by the Seniors. The
Sophomores take the Junior seats, and
the Freshmen are no longer “ Fresh.”
After these exercises, the classes give
stunts on the campus.

Commencement—Commencement week
is solemnized by Baccalaureate Sermon,
Class Day, Senior Sale, Alumni Ban-
quet and Commencement.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS

College Club—This is one of the old-
est of State College student organiza-
tions. Any student is” eligible for
membership and becomes a member
by attending the meetings, which are
held on Friday afternoons, every two
weeks. There are no fees. The object
of the club is the broadening of the
student’s interests and understanding
of current events and social problems.
There is a speaker, prominent in some

19


field of social interest, at each meet-
ing. All students are invited to make
use of the opportunities offered by
College Club. .

Promethean—This is the one literary
society of State College, the purpose
of which is to study the life and works
of those prominent in the world of
books. Membership is open to all. If
you desire to become a member, hand
your name to a member of Promethean,
and it will be voted on. Meetings are
held twice a month. All who have
attended Promethean initiation agree
that it is a good time which you should
not miss.

Joseph Henry Society—The Joseph
Henry Society offers the student of
physics an opportunity to broaden his
knowledge and appreciation of the sub-
ject. Only students of advanced
physics are eligible for membership.

French Club—Anyone who has stud-
ied French, whether or not he is en-
rolled in the French department here,
is welcome at the bi-monthly meetings
of this club. At these meetings an
attempt is made to become familiar
with “things French” to an extent
that cannot be attained in the class-
room. This year we hope to have a
series of talks by a member of the
faculty on ‘‘ The History of the French
Language.”

Canterbury Club—This is an organ-
ization of the members of the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church, and has for its
purpose the looking after the welfare
of Episcopal freshmen, the social and
religious life of students of this com-
munion. Every member is required to
attend the Corporate Communion held
every month. The Rey. Alfred J. Mil-
ler is president.

Musical Club—In the fall of 1916 the
musical club was organized in State

20

College. It welcomes as members all
those musically inclined as well as all
those interested in giving readings.
Through this organization we come
to a better appreciation of - musical
and literary renderings as an art, and
we gain experience too in appearing
before an audience. Meetings of the
club occur semi-monthly and programs
are given. There are good times also.
Near the end of the college year a
dance is given. Dues are twenty-five
cents a year.

Spanish Club—Welcomes all students
interested in the study of Spanish.
Meetings are held semi-monthly. Short
programs, consisting of Spanish stories
and anecdotes, are given at each meet-
ing. Dues are twenty-five cents a year.

Omicron Nu—Beta Chapter, Omicron
Nu, was the second chapter of this
national honorary society to be. or-
ganized. Its aim is to stimulate schol-
arship, create interest in Home Eco-
nomics work, and maintain the high
ideals for which this department stands.
Juniors and Seniors who have main-
tained high scholarship and possess
other qualifications which indicate
future achievement in this line of work
are eligible for membership. The
fourth national conclave of this or-
ganization will be held at State Col-
lege in the spring of 1919.

Consumers’ League—Organized Feb-
ruary 25, 1913. The purpose of the
League is to study the industrial con-
ditions now existing. By showing
what the ‘“‘ white label” means to the
consumer and to the worker, we aim
to create a demand for goods made
under the best conditions, and to better
the welfare of the laborers. The
league has about seventy members at
present.

21


Chemistry Club—This club was
founded over four years ago to foster
the spirit of chemical research. All
chemistry students, having more ad-
vanced work than Chemistry I, are
eligible for membership, and such
other students as present acceptable
papers on chemical subjects before the
club. Meetings are held every two
weeks, and papers are read by club
members on subjects relating to chem-
istry. Free discussion is allowed on
all subjects. Frequent trips are made
during the year to visit manufacturing
plants to study the practical appli-
cations of chemistry. In the latter
part of each year the club has an

”

“outing or banquet.

Newman Club—The Newman Club is
one of the most recent organizations
established in State College, but is
large and enthusiastic. The club was
organized for Catholic students in
order to promote acquaintanceship and
loyalty to one another. Business meet-
ings are held once a month, and pro-
gram meetings twice a week. The lat-
ter consist of lecture courses and
musical numbers.

Press Club—Organized in 1916. The
object is to give to those interested
in journalism an opportunity for prac-
tical work. Each member writes the
news of the college for his home
paper. In this way the college be-
comes more widely known. There are
lectures to instruct the members in
the art of journalism. The editorial
boards of college publications form a
council to advise the president of the
club. Everyone interested is eligible
for membership.

Auxiliary was formed in order that
the purposes, plans, and work of the
National Red Cross Society might be
better understood, and to afford an
opportunity for student participation
in some of the activities which the
war has made necessary.

Y. M. C. A.A branch of the Y. M.
C. A. was formed in State College in
May, 1917. The association aims to
be of spiritual and social value to the
men of the college. The organization
is young and worthy of your heart-
iest co-operation.

Industrial Club—The purpose of the
Industrial Club is to promote interest
in industrial education and to promote
sociability and departmental = spirit
among its members. All students in
the Industrial Department are eligible
for membership.

ATHLETICS

Girls’ Athletic Association—The G.

strong. No girl may make a basket-
ball, tennis or hockey squad without
becoming a member. Three hikes are
held each year, the one most antici-
pated is to the Indian Ladder in the
Helderberg Mountains. The interclass
athletic meet gives an opportunity to
each girl to show what she can do

27


individually, while the gym exhibitions
demonstrate the class as a whole. You
will enjoy the frolics held from time
to time; just mention ‘these frolics”
to an old member and see her face
light up. Dues are fifty cents a year.

Men’s Athletic Association—Men of
S. C. T., to start the year right is to
join A. A. It is your first duty as
loyal students to this institution. The
A. A. has charge of all our men’s
activities and it is exceedingly impor-
tant that it be a live, thriving or-
ganization. First of all, get your
membership cards and pay the annual
dues of fifty cents, then give your loyal
support to the officers and games. We
have made great advances in the past
year, our squads now have a reputa-
tion equal to any of the larger colleges
of the East. Come and join us. You
can find your place on our baseball,
basket-ball, tennis, hockey or track
teams.

SUGGESTIONS FROM THE DEAN OF
WOMEN

The Dean of Women reserves the
hours from 9:30 to 11:30 each morning
for student conferences, During these
hours students are asked to come for
excuses for absences, for consultation
on boarding or rooming problems, to
arrange college social affairs. or for
advice on personal matters. They may
come at other times by appointment
but, if possible, all student matters
should be presented during these office
hours. Whatever concerns a student's
welfare justifies its being brought to
the attention of the Dean of Women
who will always welcome opportunities
to serve the young women of the
College.

28

Students are required to secure rooms
in houses on the approved list and no
changes in boarding house are _ per-
mitted except after consultation with
the Dean of Women. Students are
urged to use care in the selection of
a home for the college year and so
avoid the discomfort of needing to
change.

Homes should be chosen where clean-
liness, warmth, bathing facilities, good
fresh air, quiet, conveniences for study
are all assured. Women = students
should secure rooms only in houses
where they are permitted at least oc-
easional use of the parlor.

When going out in the evening a
student is expected to confer with the
landlady and then to fill out a card pro-
vided by the Dean of Women.

Students should not arrange for
recreation or callers the first four
evenings of the week.

Women students are asked not to
join dancing classes held outside of
the College without having the ap-
proval of the Dean of Women.

Sunday should be observed in such
a way as to make the day one of
quiet and dignity.

Students should remember that to be
inconspicuous in dress, manner and
conversation is the mark of a gentle-
woman, whether in the home, on the
street, traveling or in public gather-
ings.

Consideration for the rights and
pleasures of others requires silence
during a concert, lecture or recital. If
obliged to enter or leave during an
entertainment, let it be done between
numbers and in the most inconspicu-
ous manner possible.

Students living with their parents
will be expected to act in harmony

29


witi the social customs
the college.

It is suggested that evening quiet
hours be observed daily except Fri-
day, Saturday and Sunday from 7:3
to 10:30 p. m. Lights out at ‘11:00
p. m. (except by special arrangement
with landlady and then only when
other students will not be inconven-
ienced by the exception).

Chaperones—Social functions held in
the college are chaperoned by the wives
of the faculty or by the women of the
faculty. Arrangements for these func-
tions are made in the office of the Dean
of Women.

Attendance on public dances is
strictly forbidden. Students are asked
to consult the Dean of Women in re-
gard to any private dance they may
wish to attend, stating persons or club
under whose auspices the function is
given, place and ,chaperones.  Per-
mission will be granted for Friday
and Saturday nights only.

Students will not go to hotels for
evening dinners or dances unchaper-
oned, and arrangements for the same
should be made with the Dean of
Women.

approved by

Every Freshman will strive to attain
the highest possible grades, but each
one should earnestly desire to attain
from her college course more than
A’s, B’s; C’s, much as these are valued.
Since these other desirable objectives
are not specifically mentioned among
those in the college catalogue required
for graduation, the Handbook should
eall attention to a few of them.

Friendships—Fortunate indeed are
those who have the faculty of making
friends! College days will bring added
opportunities for real friendships. It

20


is good not to make too much of any
one at the first because it may be
found impossible to continue the friend-
ship at the same rate. By all means
avoid that selfish and silly devotion
to one person which is designated “a
erush.” Through such a short-sighted
policy students lose opportunities to
know many worthwhile people and
their lives remain narrow and barren
when they might be enriched and use-
ful. The saying that one is known
by the company he keeps applies to
a college girl and her friendships.

Courtesy—College life will afford new
ways of applying the principles of
courtesy which have been gained from
the home-training. No matter how
busy a person is there should always
be time enough for courtesy. It is
a possible factor in every relation of
life and especially valuable to the new
student in her strange environment.
Tact and consideration of others are
sure signs that one possesses the cour-
teous © spirit. Honesty in business,
prompt payment of bills, punctuality
in keeping appointments. readiness to
consider the rights of others, whether
it be in the boarding-house, the lec-
ture-room, the library or in any busi-
ness or social relation, are all’ ear-
marks of courtesy—the evidences that
the Golden Rule is at work in the
college life.

Service—College  spirit—an _ elusive
thing to define—is best shown by the
self-sacrificing student. response to the
calls for service to improve conditions
both within the college and in the
community. No better means for the
expansion of life on broad and cul-
tured lines can come to the class of
1922 than work for the extra-curricu-
lum activities designed to improve the
conditions of life for himself and for
others.

SUGGESTIONS FOR DRESS

In these days of necessary economy
along all lines, a few suggestions as
to the wardrobe of the college girl may
prove helpful, in order that a wise
choice be made between the required
and superfluous articles of clothing.

The winters are severe and a good
yarm coat is a necessity as well as
a woolen school dress. It is economy
in purchasing wool to buy the best
you can afford and to choose something
conservative in style that you may re-
ceive full return from your investment
in several seasons’ wear. ‘This is espe-
cially true at this time due to the
increasing cost of wool. Heavy shoes,
of a sensible type, good gloves and a
plain hat are recommended for school
wear. If there is a preference for the
wool skirt and separate blouse, they
should both be simply made, and the
number of blouses sufficient for fre-
quent changes, if of cotton fabrics. If
a student has a long warm coat, it is
quite possible to wear wash dresses
for many months of the school year
as the buildings are comfortably heated.
A sweater, however, is a useful addi-
tion to the wardrobe. There are occa-
sions during the year «when a white
skirt is also quite essential.

The gymnasium instructor orders
the black bloomers for the students,
thus insuring uniformity. An extra
pair, however, is sometimes of value.
The middy blouses should have white
collars and a black middy tie is worn.
At least. two blouses will be needed.
A simple sufficient supply of good,
simply trimmed underwear, which will
stand the strain of laundering, is
recommended as well as a good col-
ored petticoat of sateen or heatherbloom
for the dark dress.

For the social affairs which the

32

Freshmen attend, a pretty silk dres
and a dainty summer gown of the
previous season, will answer all the
needs.

For those who have the means to
add to this simple list suggested, or
whose social position outside of college
circles requires a more complete out-
fit, we still recommend a closer adher-
ence to principles of economy than it
has ever been necessary to urge before.

The care of clothing is almost as
essential as its selection. The use of
shoe-trees and good hangers, the prac-
tice of frequent brushing, sponging
and pressing go a long way in pre-
serving the good appearance of cloth-
ing. A simple house dress for home
use, often saves the wear of more
expensive clothes necessary for the
street. This is especially true, regard-
ing the suit skirt which is called on
to serve double the wear of the coat.

Let the selection of your wardrobe
be governed by simplicity, suitability,
and conservative style, and, let the
wearing of your clothing by its ad-
justment, good care and neatness, en-
hance your personality rather than
dominate it.

Suggestions made by Mrs. Frear—In-
structor in Dressmaking.

The students have adopted the rotary
system of class colors, resulting as
follows:

1919—Green and white.
1920—Yellow and _ white.
1921—Red and white.

A law went into effect in the fall of
1917 by which each student pays a
tax, by the first of October. which
entitles him to all college publications
and to home athletic games. Last
year the tax was five dollars.

ATTENDANCE RULES

Record of Absences.— All absences
for whatever cause shall be reported
each week by the instructors to the
Dean upon blanks provided for that
purpose and shall be filed not later
than 5 o’clock of the Monday following
the week or part of a week the re-
port. covers.

Excusing Officers.—Excuses for legi-
timate absences are granted, in the
case of men, by the Dean, and in the
case of women, by the Dean of Women.

Time Limit for Securing - Excuse.—
Written excuse for excusable absences
must be secured from the excusing
officer within one week from the initial
date of absence, except that a student
who is detained longer than one week
at home by illness or other legitimate
cause may, by notification in writing
to the excusing officer, secure written
excuse immediately upon his return.

Classification of Absences.—All ab-
sences shall be classified as excusable,
non-excusable and permissible as fol-
lows:

a. Excusable absences.—Excusable ab-
sences shall include—

(1) Absences caused. by illness
vouched for by a _ pbhysician’s certifi-
cate or by other evidence satisfactory
to the excusing officer.

(2) Absences caused by serious ill-
ness or death in the immediate family
of .a student.

(3) Absences due to substitute teach-
ing when. arrangements for such
absences have been made in advance
by the Dean.

(4) Absences due to conditions over
which a student has no control, such

35


as a severe storm or interrupted train
or trolley service.

(5) Absences due to an approved ath-
letic schedule.

(6) Absences due to authorized at-
tendance upon a State or National
convention of a student organization.

(7) Absences not classified in sub-
divisions (1) to (6) but considered
legitimate by the excusing officer.

b. Non-excusable absences. Non-
excusable absences shall include—

(1) Absences caused by the careless-
ness or forgetfulness of a student.

(2) Absences caused by extra cur-
riculum activities of any nature.

(8) Absences from one class to pre-
pare work for another class.

(4) Absences due to suspension from
a class.

(5) Excusable absences for which
written excuse has not been secured
within the time limit.

(6) Absences not classified in sub-
divisions (1) to (5) deemed non-ex-
cusable by the excusing officer.

c. Permissible absences. Without the
necessity of offering explanation to
the excusing officer a student may have
in a semester one absence in a one
hour course, two absences in a two
hour course and three absences in a
three or in a four hour course, which
shall be known as permissible absences.
In reckoning permissible absences both
excusable and non-excusable absences
shall be counted. An absence on the
opening or closing day of a semester
or upon the day instruction ends or
is resumed at a recess or vacation
period shall count the full number of
permissible absences in a given course.

36


Overeuts.—Overcuts shall be defined
and regulated as follows:

a. Definition—An absence occurring
after a permissible absence in a one
hour course, after two permissible
absences’ in a two hour course, and
after three permissible absences in a
three or in a four hour course shall
constitute an overcut.

b. Regulation—A student who does
not secure an excuse from the proper
excusing officer and file it in the Dean’s
office within one week after he has
been notified of an overcut shall be
dropped from the course in which the
overcut occurs and be reported by the
instructor at the end of the semester
as failed. Thus, only excusable ab-
sences, satisfactory to the proper ex-
cusing officer, may operate to remove
an overcut, and one absence in any
eourse after an excused overcut for
whatever cause, shall result in a new
overcut.

Tardiness.—No record shall be_ kept
of tardiness. A student who _ inter-
rupts a class by late entrance after the
roll has been called shall be marked
absent unless he makes his presence
known to the instructor at the close
of the period and _ presents satisfac-
tory explanation of his tardiness.

Class Work During Absence.—An ex-
ecuse for absence shall not in any case
relieve the student from responsibility
for the work of his class during his
absence.

Long Continued Absence.—A_ student
who is absent for whatever reason for
a period longer than two weeks may
not resume his work except with the
consent of his instructors and the ap-
proval of the Dean. A student who is
absent for four consecutive weeks may
not usually resume his work during a
semester.
