General Information
ORGANIZATION
The School of Business Administration had its origin m 1920 as the department of economics in Richmond College which eventually became the department of economics and applied economics. In 1924 the Evening School of Business Administration was organized as a separate division of the University of Richmond. In 1949 the department of economics and applied economics in Richmond College and the Evening School of Business Administration were combined to form the School of Business Administration with both day and evening classes. Day classes are conducted on the three hundred acre University campus in surburban Westhampton about five miles from the center of Richmond. Evening classes meet in the Columbia Building, Grace and Lombardy Streets, on the site of the old Richmond College campus.
The School of Business Administration is one of the six divisions of the University of Richmond, which was founded and is supported by the Baptists of Virginia. Other divisions with dates of founding are Richmond College ( 1830); The T. C. Williams School of Law ( 1870) ; Westhampton College ( 1914) ; the Summer School ( 1920) ; and the Graduate School ( 1921) . Each College has its own dean, its own faculty, and its own institutional life. The University Senate, on which sit representatives of all the faculties, provides for intercollegiate cooperation.
The legal name of the corporation is UNIVERSITYOF RICHMOND. The Board of Trustees of the University of Richmond controls all endowment and other funds and makes all appropriations. The degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration as well as all degrees for work done in any of the colleges is conferred by the University of Richmond. Ultimate authority is vested in the Board of Trustees and the President of the University.
The University of Richmond, one of the eight affiliated institutions of the Richmond Area University Center, benefits from the several cooperative programs operated by the Center. Through a cooperative Evening Program students can complete all requirements for a degree in Business Administration.
Richmond is an ideal location for a School of Business Administration because of the large number of establishments which are availabl e as business laboratories and clinics, the diversity of business activity, and its proximity to Washington , D. C. and large business centers.
LIBRARY FACILITIES
Th e librari es of the University contain over 115,000 volumes . Th e main collection of the University Library is housed in the Cha rles Hill Ryland Building. A large reading room and a specialized library dealing with economic subjects and current busine ss affairs are maintained in the Columbia Building especially for th e use of evening students.
Special collection of books, pamphlets and research materials are maintained by the Richmond Society of Public Accountants , the Richmond Chapter of the National Office Management Association, and th e Richmond Chapter of the American Institute of Banking .
STUDENT GOVERNMENT
The stud ent self-government organization, known as the Student Government of th e School of Business Administration, was established by the students to represent and further the best interests of th e student body and the School in general, and to bring about cooperation and efficiency among th e various student organization s. Each full-time student is a member of this organization. It i s vitall y connected with maintaining the honor system in the School.
P a rt-time students are repr esented by the Student Advisory Committee, the members of which are selected by the stud ent s in th e evening classes.
THE HONOR SYSTEM
The Honor System requires that a man shall in all the r elation s of stud ent lif e act honorably. Breaches of Honor Code are cheating , violations of signed pledg es, stealing, lying, failure to report violation s of the Honor Code , and, in general, breaking one's word of honor under any circumstances.
GENERAL ExPLANATION
1. Th e Pl e d ge : "On my honor as a gentleman , I have neith er given nor r eceived aid."
UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND
2. Meaning of the Pledge: The pledge on quizzes, examinations, written problems, and exercises means that the work which the student hands in to his professor is his own, which he himself has done in accordance with the requirements laid down by the faculty in the regulations set forth below.
3. Exercise Care: It is also important that everyone should exercise the greatest care to keep himself free from suspicion of evil. Such practices as leaving the examination room for any length of time unaccompanied or too frequently, or taking an examination alone, or bringing texts and note books into the examination room, or carelessly glancing toward another student's paper-these are discouraged by the Honor Council. While they do not of themselves constitute infringements of the Honor Code, such practices are dangerous for both the individual and the continued well-being of the Honor System.
All students should take every opportunity of acquainting themselves in detail with the working of the Honor System as well as with these general principles .
The Honor System is a principle of conduct and not a set of rules for conduct. It should be understood that the following statement is intended only to cover the chief and most easily misunderstood applications of that principle, and not to serv e as a substitute for it.
PLEDGED WORK
I. No test, examination, theme, term paper, or parallel reading report will be accepted which does not have the customary pledge written out in full and signed.
II The placing of the pledge on a test or examination paper means that the student has used no books, notes, or other aids except by explicit permission of the instructor.
A When a book is used by permission of the instructor, it must be fr ee from annotations in that part of the book used.
B. When an oral t est is given, no books or notes are to be used except by explicit permission of the instructor.
III. The placing of the pledge on a term paper or theme means that the work is the student's own and contains no plagiarism -that is, theft from another writer. There are two kinds of plagiarism: copying the ideas or facts belonging to another; and copying his words
A. To avoid the first kind, it is necessary, whenever the student consults any reference work or other source, that he give in the body of his paper or in a footnote the name of the reference work or author.
B. To avoid the second, it is necessary, whenever the student uses the words of another, that he enclose them in quotation marks and give in his paper or in a footnote the name of the author.
C. Plagiarism is not avoided by using the words of another with a few alterations.
D. In general, it is not undesirable for students to co-operate or to help one another in the preparation of their themes, or even in the shaping of the material for their themes. It must be clearly understood, however, that the actual papers must be written without aid.
IV. The placing of the pledge on a parallel reading test or report means that the student has actually read the book or number of pages claimed.
U NPLEDGED WORK
On all unpledged work it is understood that the student's signing the paper with his name means that he has observed the following principles:
I. A student may work and discuss his home work with other students, but may not turn in, as his own, work which he has merely copied from another and to which he has not substantially contributed.
II. A student must make laboratory reports only on work which he has actually done in the laboratory and on results actually obtained there.
LITERARY SOCIETIES AND FORENSIC ACTIVITIES
There are three literary societies -the Mu Sigma Rho, the Philologian, and the Samuel Chiles Mitchell Societies. The societies hold weekly meetings for declamation, debate, and other literary exercises.
STUDENT PUBLICATIONS
The Messenger-This is a magazine devoted to the development of literary activity among all the students of the University. In this periodical are published short stories, poems, essays, book reviews, and editorials on questions of local academic interest.
The Richmond Collegian-This is a weekly newspaper in which are published up-to-date news articles on every phase of university life.
The Web-This is an annual volume issued usually in May or June, abundantly illustrated and forming a transcript of a year of college life.
UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND
The student publications of the University are controlled by the administration and the students jointly through an incorporated board, whose legal title is "University of Richmond Publication s, Incorporated."
THE UNIVERSITY BAND
The University Band, composed entirely of students, adds much to the spirit of the campus. It plays for athletic contests and for other student functions. Prospective students who are interested in this organization are invited to bring their instruments.
THE u NIVERSITY CHOIR
The University Choir, composed of students from all divisions of the University, sings at Convocations and other Universit y functions.
MEN'S GLEE CLUB
This club offers opportunity to learn to read music at sight, and the experience gained enables many of the members to lead other groups in singing. The club gives frequent concerts throughout the State.
UNIVERSITY PLAYERS
The University Players is the University dramatic organization , open to all students in the University, and working in conjunction with the Department of Dramatic Arts.
The University Playhouse and the Luther H. Jenkins Greek Theatre are equipped for experimentation and production. Th e workshop offers the technical student opportunity for experiment ation in the dramatic field.
Each year keys are presented to those members of the two upp er classes who have rendered conspicuous service to the organization.
Y ouNG MEN's CHRISTIAN AssocIATION
An active Young Men's Christian Association is maintained in the University. Its object is to promote the spiritual and mor al
welfare of the students. Meetings, addressed by representative students, faculty members, and prominent men from Richmond, are held weekly.
SOCIAL f RA TERNITIES
There are eleven national Greek-letter social fraternities in the University of Richmond. They are: Phi Delta Theta, Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Kappa Sigma, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Theta Chi, Kappa Alpha, Kappa Sigma, Pi Kappa Alpha, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Lambda Chi Alpha, and Phi Alpha. Two repreesntatives from each of these fraternities and the faculty committee on fraternities constitute the Interfraternity Council. The operation and conduct of all fraternal groups are subject to the strict regulation of the administration and faculty of the University.

Administration
FACULTY
INSTRUCTION BY BUSINESS MEN AND PROFESSIONAL TEACHERS
Two groups are represented in the faculty of the School of Business: the professional university instructor who is devotin g his life to education as a career, and the active business executiv e or government official who has achieved success in his vocation and who is willing to conduct a college course in the field of his major activity. Most of the business men who are affiliated with the School's faculty have had former teaching experience. Through these two groups, each with its special emphasis, there results a balanced education which gives due weight to both the theoretic al and the practical.
To supplement the instruction offered by members of the regular faculty of the School of Business Administration, a number of prominent business executives and government officials in Richmond have generously agreed to meet with various classes and give to the students the benefit of their specialized knowledge and experience.

The University has an arrangement with a Richmond bank whereby worthy and dependable students, who may not have sufficient funds at hand to pay all that is due the treasurer on entrance, may obtain short-term loans. The student himself, however, must be in a position to pay a substantial part of the amount due before the loan is approved. In addition to this, the President of the University has at his disposal several small loan funds with which to assist needy students.
