UNIVERSITY SENATE: The President, the Deans and the members of the Academic Councils of the six Colleges of the University.
The President and Dean of the School are ex officio members of all committees.
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 available as business laboratories and clinics, the diversity of business activity, and its proximity to Washington, D. C. and large business centers.
The libraries of the University contain over 120,000 volumes. The main collection of the University Library is housed in the Charles Hill Ryland Building. A large reading room and a specialized library dealing with economic subjects and current business affairs are maintained in the Columbia Building especially for the use of evening students.
Special collections 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 the Richmond Chapter of the American Institute of Banking.
The student self-government organization, known as the Student Government of the School of Business Administration, was established by the students to represent and further the best interests of the student body and the School in general, and to bring about cooperation and efficiency among the various student organizations. Each full-time student is a member of this organization. It is vitally connected with maintaining the honor system in the School.
Part-time students are represented by the Student Advisory Committee, the members of which are selected by the students in the evening classes.
The Honor System requires that a man shall in all the relations of student life act honorably. Breaches of Honor Code are cheating, violations of signed pledges, stealing, lying, failure to report violations of the Honor Code, and, in general, breaking one's word of honor under any circumstances.
1. The Pledge: "On my honor as a gentleman, I have neither given nor received aid."
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 serve as a substitute for it.
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 free from annotations in that part of the book used.
B. When an oral test 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.
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.
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
The Messenger-This is a magazine devoted to the development of lit erary 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.
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 Publications, Incorporated."
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 University Chorus, composed of students from all divisions of the University, sings at Convocations and other University functions.
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.
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 Speech Arts Building and the Luther H. Jenkins Greek Theatre are equipped for experimentation and production. The workshop offers the technical student opportunity for experimentation in the dramatic field.
Each year keys are presented to those members of the two upper classes who have rendered conspicuous service to the organization.
An active Young Men's Christian Association is maintained in the University. Its object is to promote the spiritual and moral
welfare of the students. Meetings, addressed by representative students, faculty members, and prominent men from Richmond, are held weekly.
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. There is one local Greek-letter social fraternity, Upsilon Rho; and a local ministerial fraternity, Alpha Delta. Two representatives 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.
Students in the School of Business Administration are eligible for the Professional Club and the Society for Advancement of Management. Both organizations have as their objective the advancement of professional competency of their members.
1. The Charles T. Norman Medal for the best graduate in Business Administration has b een endowed by Mr. Norman and is award ed annually.

Early in the second semester the University holds an honors convocation, under the joint auspices of the several honor societies. At this convocation elections to the honor societies are made public.
Students have easy access to all the advantages afforded by the various city and suburban churches, with their Bible classes, Sunday Schools and worship services. Prayer meetings conducted by the students themselves are held once, or oftener, every week. On Thursdays at 7: 30 P.M., the University unites in a Vesper Service for praise and prayer and a spiritual message .
Students and faculty attend the College assemblies from 11: 30 to 12: 20 o'clock on the first and third Tuesdays and each Thursday. The Tuesday meetings are for School of Business only; the Thursday meetings are convocations of the University. From time
to time, prominent visiting speakers address these assemblies on educational, civic, and religious themes. These assemblies give opportunity for announcements of interest and importance to the students and for presentation of student affairs.
Attendance at assemblies and convocations is required of all students. Two unexcused absences are permitted each semester. For each unexcused absence in excess of two, a student is required to add a half-semester hour to the requirements for the degree for which he is a candidate.
Alumni of the University have long been organized into the General Society of Alumni, which holds annual meetings to renew old associations, maintains a close connection with Alma Mater , and furthers the cause for higher education. The association engages: the services of an alumni secretary and publishes an alumni magazine.
In addition, there is a School of Business Administration Alumni Association. Meetings are held each year on Alumni Day. The officers of the association are: Rudolph G. Hetzer, Jr ., President; John A. Reynolds, Vice-President; and William C. Farmer, SecretaryTreasurer .
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 devoting his life to education as a career, and the active business executive 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 theoretical and the practical.
To supplement tht; 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.
Full-time students:
For admission to the School of Business Administration, the general requirements are as follows:
1. The applicant must present a transcript from an accredit ed college or univer sity showing that he has completed a minimum of sixty semester hours of work . It is preferred that the pre-busine ss work include the following : *

Thursday, September 17, 1953, or 12: 00 o'clock noon Saturday, January 30, 1954, for the second semester, will be charged an extra fee of $5.00.
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.
The College Fee is an entrance charge paid by all students to cover the privileges of the campus and buildings, including the use of the library and laboratories, and is not subject to deduction or in any case refunded. Twenty-five dollars ($25.00) of the College Fee must be paid in advance by new students and by former students not in attendance during the full preceding semester.

In the event of withdrawal on account of student's sickness, proportionate deductions will be made in the charge for board. No diploma is granted or credit given for the session's work until all charges have been satisfactorily settled.
Through the generosity of Mr. A. D. Williams the School of Business Administration is able to offer for the 1953-54 session one $1,000 scholarship and two $500 scholarships. These scholarships are granted on a competitive basis. Information and application forms can be secured from the Dean.
The University provides a number of "Service Scholarships" which require the holder to make some return in service to his college while he holds the scholarship.
Persons seeking scholarship appointments should make application by April 1 each year for the session opening the following September.

Although a specific number of years is indicated for a certificate, the required work may be completed in a different sequence and in more or less time, depending upon the abilities and circumstances of the student.
Individual-Course Program. - Many persons desire to enroll in individual courses for vocational or cultural value without regard to college credits or a certificate curriculum. Unless special training or prerequisite courses are necessary, all courses announced in this catalogue may be elected on an individual basis by students admitted under any of the four classifications.
A student following any of the four programs of study may elect one or more classes, according to his or her wishes and ability. Although it is possible to carry as many as five classes each semester, such a schedule would load a student to capacity and is recommended only to the most earnest and capable students.
Limits of work.-No one will be permitted to carry more than nine semester hours work without approval of the Dean or Director.
Evening Classes of the School of Business have been established to provide the types of business training of college caliber required by those persons in Richmond and vicinity unable to devote their full time to study. In seeking to achieve this end the School has obtained the advice of civic and business leaders of the community and has cooperated with local business organizations and governmental agencies in offering educational opportunities required by members of the various groups. The present curriculum of the School, in addition to courses for general business training, provides specialized programs of study for prospective students of law, for students of accountancy, for bank employees, government employees, insurance men, merchants, retailers, and others.
Among the organizations with which close relationships are maintained in offering courses are the Richmond Chapter of the American Institute of Banking, the Richmond Life Agency Managers , the Richmond Association of Insurance Agents, the Richmond Life Underwriters Association, the Richmond Chapter of the National Institute of Credit, the Richmond Chapter of the National Office Management Association, the Richmond Real Estate Exchange, the Sales Executives Club of Richmond, and the Richmond (Va.) Traffic Club.
Evening Classes of the School of Business Administration are held in the Columbia Building at the corner of West Grace Street and North Lombardy Street.
Matriculation. - Matriculation of part-time students in evening classes will be conducted in the Columbia Building from 7: 00-9: 30 P. M. Tuesday, September 8 through Friday, September 11. Evening registrations are accepted in the order received until classes are filled. No one will be permitted to register for any first semester class after October 2, or any second semester class after February 20.
Class H ours.-Classes meet once each week, beginning at 7: 00 or 7: 30 P. M. and continuing for 100 or 150 minutes, unless stipulated otherwise in the schedule of particular courses . This schedule is available at the beginning of each semester.
Late Afternoon Classes.-To be of further service to the community, the School is offering several classes in the late afternoon. These classes begin at 5: 30 P. M. and run for 75 or 100 minutes. For additional information consult the course schedule.
Grading.-The standing of students in class work and in examinations is indicated as follows: A (95-100%) excellent work; B ( 88-94%) very good work; C (80-87 % ) fair or average work; D (75-79%) just passing; E and F (below 75%) indicate failure; I, incomplete because of excused absence from final examination or because of failure to submit required work during the semester; and F, failure because of excessive or unexcused absences .
Special Examinations and Removal of Incomplete Grades.-See p a g e 24.
Withdrawals -Students are permitted to withdraw from a class without scholastic penalty prior to Inid-semester upon submitting to the office of the Dean a request in writing for withdrawal. After mid-semester, withdrawals will carry the grade F. Students who stop attending class without notifying the office of the Dean will receive the grade F regardless of when attendance was stopped.
Absences. - No credit can be given for a course if, during a semester, the student has more than four absences, whether excused
or unexcused and including those caused by entering the course late, unless the instructor indicates in writing to the dean that he believes the student is sufficiently qualified to be allowed credit for the course. Unexcused absences should result in an appropriate lowering of the student's grade, to be determined by the instructor. The grounds for excusing absences are ( 1) illness, ( 2) a personal obligation recognized as valid by the instructor, and ( 3) religious holidays.
The University is required to notify the Veterans Administration when a veteran has had as many as five cuts. The Veterans Administration will terminate the veteran's training as of the last day of attendance. In most cases, the veteran will not be permitted to reenter training under the G. I. Bill.
Vocational Counseling and Placement of Students. - To help students find the vocation for which they are best suited, members of the staff of -the University of Richmond will conduct vocational aptitude tests which may be taken by students registered in Evening classes. The results of these scientific tests, combined with individual discussions with students, will be used as the basis for giving students who desire advice all possible assistance in determining the field of business they may wish to enter and for which they may be fitted. Although no promise is made by the School of Business to secure positions for its students, an effort is made to find places for those who inform the School authorities of their desire to obtain new positions and who have made a good record in the School. Gratifying success has attended the efforts to aid capable students in making connections with business firms.
Evening students of the School of Business Administration are students of the University of Richmond. It is the policy of the Administration and faculty to foster any proper organization and activities that the students should undertake.
