STATEMENT OF THE

0RGAN IZATION,COURSES OF INSTRUCTION, HONORS &c.1 AT RICHMOND COLLEGE. 1 EXPENSES, Location.

The city of Richmond, along with its great natural beauty and rapidly increasing importance as a commercial, manufacturing, political and religious centre, combines other eminent advantages as a location for an institution of learning. Its easy accessibility, favorable climate, good society and many aids and stimulants to mental culture, make yet more valuable its prime attributes of physical and moral healthfulness. Situated on hills opposite the falls of the James, it is free alike from the malarial fevers of tidewater, and from the pulmonary diseases of the mountain region.

For religious advantages, and wholesome moral tone, a more excellent community can nowhere be found. Young men who have already contracted vicious habits, or are predisposed to dissipation will, of course, find temptations here as everywhere else, but it is confidently claimed, and the claim is supported by long experience, that all whose age and character qualify them to enter college at all, are comparatively safe under the restraining and ennobling influence of a distinctly Christian college in an exceptionally Christian city.

Grounds and Buildings.

The College premises embrace about eighteen acres, just within the corporate limits, and in a portion of the city, which, on ac-

count of its elevation and natural beauty, is devoted mainly to private residences, and is improving more rapidly than any other.

The centre building, a large and imposing edifice, occupies a commanding site, and fronts directly down Grace Street from its western terminus. It contains a chapel, lecture-rooms, society halls, library, museum, and some dormitories. Of the wings, designed mainly for dormitories, only one has yet been erected, but this, with handsome brick cottages and other buildings on the premises, will furnish ample accommodation for two hundred and fifty students or more. The erection of the other wing, to be known as the Jeter Memorial Building, is now under contract, and will probably be completed by the opening of the next session. The dormitories and public rooms are well ventilated, are supplied with gas, and are in all respects, thoroughly comfortable and convenient.

Faculty.

The Faculty of instruction and government consists of co-equal Professors, one of whom is annually chosen to be their Chairman and chief executive officer. To them, as a body, is committed all that pertains to the discipline and interior management of the Institution, while each Professor is responsible for the efficient conduct of his own School.

Independent

Schools.

The College is composed of eight independent Academic Schools, and a School of Law. The advantages of this system of independent Schools are numerous. Among them the following deserve attention: The Professor feels the full force both of individual duty and of personal ambition; the course of instruction can be readily enlarged or altered to adapt it to the progress of science and to the varying wants of the times; the student, whose aims or preparation require, can select a course suited to his peculiar case; he can enter, in any department of study, the classes for which he is prepared, and deficiency in one branch does not retard him in another; students are not divided into fixed classes and grades, but all stand on a footing of social equality, and mingle freely

OF

with one another; the whole system favors the utmost thoroughness of culture, even at the expense of less extensiveness in superficial attainments ; the degrees, being awarded to fewer persons than under a curriculum, are therefore of more value; and every good student, whether he takes a degree or not, receives a testimonial to his success, in the shape of Certificates or School Diplomas.

Session.

The next session begins on the 21st September, 1882, and continues nine months.

Students will be received at any time during the session , but are earnestly recommended to enter promptly at the beginning, and thus avoid the serious disadvantage occasioned by absence from the classes at that important period.

Matriculation.

Every applicant for admission, upon his arrival at the College, shall report promptly to the Chairman of the Faculty. If he has been a student at any other incorporated Institution, he must present satisfactory evidence of general good conduct while there. His course of study having been arranged, he will receive a permit to matriculate; upon presentation of which to the treasurer, and payment of the required fees, his name will be placed on the rolls.

Selection

of Studies.

Each student, under the advice of the Faculty, may select such studies as are most important in qualifying him for his future pursuits; but while allowing such selections, the Faculty will always encourage a regular and complete course, and to this end reserve the right to prescribe the studies to be pursued by all who shall be found unprepared for classes nigher than the Junior in the schools of Latin, English and Mathematics.

Every student is required to attend at least three schools, and to adhere throughout the session to the studies selected on his matriculation, unless the Faculty, for satisfactory reasons, allow him to attend a less number, or to make an exchange.

..J RICHMOND

COLLEGE.

13

Students are assigned to the several classes in a school according to their apparent attainments ; but the Professor will be at liberty at any time to transfer a student to a higher or lower class, whenever, in his judgment, such a change may appear necessary.

The lower classes, in several schools, are divided into sections, in order to secure satisfactory classification of students, and, by reducing the size of the classes, to afford each student the benefit of full attention and thorough instruction.

Discipline.

The discipline · of the College is founded upon the impartial administration of a few plain and reasonable rules, copies of which are furnished to each matriculate. The deportment of a Christian gentleman is the standard to which every student is expected to conform. Every appropriate means is used to develop and confirm a sense of personal honor and a sacred regard for truth, as upon these will be placed the main reliance in behalf of good conduct.

Students who violate these regulations, or who, without such violation, habitually neglect their duties, or are not regular and punctual in attendance, will be required to withdraw from College.

Religion.

I

I

The students have easy access to all the advantages afforded by the various city churches, with their Bible-classes and Sunday schools. Those who are professors of religion are advised to bring with them letters of commendation, and, without severing their ecclesiastical connections at home, to attach themselves while here to some church, so as to have the sympathy and care of a pastor . The daily duties of the College are opened with brief devotional exercises conducted by one of the Professors; and prayer meetings, conducted by the students themselves, are held once or more every week. Attendance on religious exercises is left voluntary, as experience has shown that such a course is best in its results.

Museum.

The Museum originated by the Literary Societies is now under the control of the College, and has become an attractive feature of the· Institution.

Its present officers are-Professors C. H. Winston and Wm. D. Thomas, Directors, and Mr. Joel T. Tucker, Exhibitor.

Contributions of minerals, Indian relics, or of anything rare, valuable, or of historic or archceological interest are solicited.

The expenses of transmission, when desired, will be paid.

The additions to the College buil.dings now in course of erection, will give the Museum a much-needed room, of adequate size, and will greatly enlarge its facilities for the very valuable work which it has shown itself capable of performing.

The

College

Library

Contains about 7,000 volumes, besides a large number of unbound pamphlets. A new Library Room, large, commodious and tasteful, will be provided on the completion of the Jeter Memorial Building, now in process of construction and rapidly advancing to completion.

Our thanks are due to Senator Johnston, and Hon. George D. Wise for valuable public documents, and particularly to Hon. lsaac Davis, of Worcester, Mass., for the donation of $1,000 to be expended, under the direction of the Board, in the purchase of books to fill the shelves of an alcove, which will be designated, in honor of the generous benefactor, the "Isaac Davis Alcove."

Text-Books: Todhunter, Courtenay and Salmon ·; the course being supplemented by notes.

The subjects of Land and Railway Surveying are taught in an additional class. The student is required to make himself familiar with the instruments used by actual practice in the field.

Provision is made in the College for the instruction in Arithmetic and elementary Algebra of such students as are not prepared to enter the Junior Class.

In all the classes the paramount importance of cultivating the student's power of invention and of independent thought, is constantly regarded, and accordingly he is assiduously exercised in the demonstration and solution of original propositions and problems throughout his course of study.

6. School of Physics.

Professor , Winston.

To the School of Physics are assigned the several subjects usually grouped under this title, or under the practically equivalent name, Natural Philosophy. These include: The General Properties of Matter; Mechanics proper, or the cardinal doctrines of Force, Equilibrium, Motion and Energy, in their various kinds, their relations to the several states of matter, and their practical applications; a full consideration of the phenonema and laws of Sound and of Light; such a treatment of Heat, Magnetism and Static and Dynamic Electricity as is properly physical; and finally, a brief but compact course in Celestial Physics, or Astronomy.

The method of instruction is by text-books, and by lectures for the most part referring to the text, with daily examinations upon both text and lecture, and written exercises required weekly.

There are two classes : The JUNIOR CLASS begins with the elements, and pursues the course by the aid of abundant experiments and illustrations, with continual reference to practical applications. The effort is made to combine in a course of modern Physics the freshness and attractiveness of an experimental and practical science, with the rigorous accuracy, the scientific method, and the exact discipline which may form the basis for future work.

CATALOGUEOF

Text-Books: Norton's Natural Philosophy, Tyndall's Lecture Notes on Light and Electricity, Lockyer's Astronomy, with others for reference.

In the SENIOR CLASSthe subjects mentioned above are again taken up, in proper order, and are studied as completely as possible from the vantage ground of the knowledge already gained in the Junior Class, and with the additional aid to be found in the free use of mathematical principles.

Text-books: Parkinson's or Todhunter's Mechanics, Atkinson's Garrot's Physics (last edition ), Loomis' Practica1 Astronomy, or Newcomb and Holden's Astronomy, with others for reference.

7. School

of Chemistry.

Professor Puryear.

The lectures in this school begin with the discussion of the physical properties of the atmosphere . The following subjects are then treated in the order named : Heat, Static and Dynamic Electricity; Magnetism; Chemical Philosophy and Notation; Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, with their application to Heating, Lightning, Mineralogy, Metallurgy, Toxicology, Agriculture and Physiology; Geology .

During the entire course, constant reference is had to the application of chemical facts and principles to agriculture, and a part of the instruction of this school is devoted exclusively to this object . The sources of the organic and inorganic food of plants, the formation and constitution of soils, drainage, putrescent and commercial fertilizers, the rotation of crops, the feeding of stock, and similar topics are fully considered.

The course is taught principally by lectures, and is abundantly illustrated by experiments.

Text-Books: Youman's New Chemistry; Roscoe's Lessons in Chemistry; Norton's Scientific Agriculture; Dana's Text-book of Geology.

8. School of Philosophy.

Professor Thomas.

JUNIOR CLASS.-The course in this class is intended to be popular and practical, rather than critical. The aim will be to teach the simple elements of Physiology, Psychology, Ethics and

:,-a

RICHMOND COLLEGE.

Political Economy. Avoiding the more difficult questions of Philosophy and Ethics, special attention will be given to the practical. The course is adapted to less advanced students, and, it is believed, will be of special advantage to such as may not be able to remain at College long enough to secure any of its degrees.

But it is important for those who purpose to study, when more advanced, the Senior Course, to enter this Junior Class during one of their earlier sessions.

SENIOR CLASS.-This class is designed for advanced students, and should generally be entered during the last year of their college life. The course, while thoroughly practical, will be also largely critical and speculative. It will embrace the following Intellect.

(1). Psychology-The subjects in the order named: Will. the and Sensibilities (2). Logic. (3). Psychology-The named last subject (4). Ethics. (5). History of Philosophy. The will be treated in Lectures. Attention will be given chiefly to the Greek Philosophy and the Modern, with discussions of present opinions and tendencies. Throughout the entire course living issues, as suggested by the text-books, will be discussed in conversational lectures. In addition to the text-books which may be used, parallel reading will be assigned from time to time. of Law.

Criminal Law will be introduced at some convenient stage of the Course.

Students, particularly those who have already paid some attention to the study of the Law, may take both the Senior and the Junior Classes. Graduation, dependent upon the result of examinations, is thus possible to such in one session.

Those, however, who enter upon the course for the first time, are earnestly advised to take only the Junior Class, and so allow themselves more time for digesting and assimilating the several subjects of study. Legal principles may be committed to memory by a process of "cramming," but they are not likely to be retained, unless the reasons and the occasion for their application have been thoroughly understood after patient reflection and a careful consideration of the cases by which they are illustrated.

The method of instruction is by examinations upon the textbooks with concurrent lectures.

Access to the State Law Library where the statute books and reports of all the States may be found, and the opportunity of visiting the almost daily sessions of the several courts which sit in Richmond-both State and Federal-will afford peculiar advantages to students who purpose to engage in the active business of the profession.

Monthly

Reports.

23

As may be seen from the foregoing statemer.t, instruction is conveyed by the use of approved text-books, supplemented by oral explanations and additions, and in some classes, by more formal lectures. In every case the student is carefully questioned on the assigned portion of the text or the previous lecture. A strict account of the value of his recitations and exercises is kept by the professor, and the average standing for each month is calculated and entered of record for reference in determining his right to any of the honors of the institution.

To the parent or guardian is sent, monthly, a transcript of this record of class-standing, with a statement of the absences of the student from his classes, and such other information as may be deemed important.

The object of these reports is mainly to enlist the active interest of friends in the progress of the student, with a view to such encouragement or admonition as the case may need. By the prompt and judicious attention of those to whom they are addressed, these reports may be made of great value in promoting improvement and sustaining a just discipline.

Examinations.

Besides the daily questioning, every class is subjected to two general examinations, conducted in writing. The Intermediate Examination, embracing in its scope the first half of the course, is held about the middle of the session. The Final Examination, held near the close of the session, embraces the subjects treated in the second half. In senior classes, however, examinations are not limited to what has been explicity contained in the course of instruction, but may embrace as well, passages that have not been

24

CATALOGUEOF

read, or problems that have not been solved in the class-room, together with an oral review of the whole course taught in the school, as searching and extensive as the professor may deem necessary.

For the general examinations a series of questions, to which certain numerical values are attached, in proportion to their relative importance, is prepared for each class. After the examinations the ansFers furnished by each student are carefully valued, and this valuation is equitably combined with the average of his class-standing for the half session next preceding the examination.

If the standing of a student as thus ascertained amounts to eighty per centum, he is ranked in the first division; if to less than eighty, but not less than fifty per centum, in the second division; if to less than fifty, in the third or lowest division.

Students who attain to the second division, in Junior or Inter.mediate Classes, will be allowed to pass on to the class above.

Certificates of Distinction are awarded to those who attain the first division at either of the Examinations, and their names are published or announced in the closing exercises of the session.

Certificates of Promotion are awarded to those who attain the first division at both Examinations, in Junior or Intermediate Classes.

Certificates of Proficiency are conferred on those who attain the first division in certain complete subjects of study, to wit : in French, in German, in Surveying, in Junior Physics and in Mineralogy and Geology.

School Diplomas are conferred on those who attain the first division in examinations covering the leading subjects taught in each School, to wit: the Latin Language and Literature and Roman History; the Greek Language, History and Literature; two Modern Languages; the English Language and Literature; Mathematics ; Physics; Chemistry; Philosophy.

The results of examinations are communicated to parents or guardians in the Report for the month of June.

Board.-Payable monthly in advance at the College hotel, $r3; in private families, from $r2 to $rs; in messing clubs, about $9; which also can be paid in provisions as well as m money.

Messing.

The plan of forming messing clubs was introduced at this Institution in r866, and has been since adopted by many others. Each club controls its own bill of fare, appointing one of its number to purchase supplies, preside at meals, and divide the expenses equally among the members, crediting each with the estimated value of any provisions furnished by him. During the present session, under the skilful management of Mrs. Woolfolk, who is retained for next session, abundant, well-served fare has been furnished at an average cost of $ro-40 per month. The plan is giving, in all respects, entire satisfaction.

Lights and Washing cost from $1.25 to $r.50 per month.

The Society of Alumni Consists of those who have received any of the College degrees, and such other former students as may be, for distinguished merit, elected to membership. They meet annually in connection with the closing exercises of the session, to renew the associations of College life, and to promote the interests of their Alma Mater.

An address by an Alumnus of the College is delivered on these occasions. The officers are : President: HOWARD R. BAYNE; First Vice-President: R. B. LEE; Second Vice-President: J. H. NEWBILL; Third Vice-President: E. H. BARTENSTEIN; Treasurer: SOLOMONCUTCHINS; Secretary: SAM'L C. CLOPTON. Executive Committee.-ASHTON STARKE, Chairman, J. ALLSTON CABELL,W• F. Fox, G. HARVEY CLARKE, CHARLES E. JONES, M. B. CURRY. Orator for I882.-

In addition to his duties as Recording Secretary and Treasurer, the general management of the finances and realty of the College and the superintendence of Grounds and Buildings are devolved upon REV. CHARLES H. RYLAND, Financial Secretary.

The office of Financial Secretary was created in 1874, and is designed to be permanent. The duties of this officer are defined to be " the collection, preservation and increase of the funds of the College, and, by familiar acquaintance with the nature and amount of all assets and liabilities, to make an annual exhibit of the same to the Trustees, and also to recommend such action as he may think desirable in reference to the financial policy of the corporation."

Gifts.

During the current year the President of the Trustees, James Thomas, Jr., donated $25,000 in cash to endow the "School of Philosophy .''

A gentleman of Richmond, whose name is withheld, gave $1,500 towards the support of the "School of Engl .ish" for the present session.

These timely and munificent gifts have greatly relieved the strain upon the limited resources of the College, and secured at the same time a full complement of Professors for the Academic Department.

Bequests.

The late Samuel Tunstall, of King and Queen county, having made a gift of some $8,000to the general funds of the College, it is ordered by the Trustees that the bequest shall be known and published annually as THE

TUNSTALL

FOUNDATION

. .

These funds have been judiciously invested, and will be held sacred to endowment purposes, the interest only to be used.

A similar gift has been received during 1880 from the late

James Phillips, Of the city of Richmond, amounting to TWO THOUSAND

DOLLARS.

Besides this special bequest, Mr. Phillips leaves the College his residuary legatee, and it is believed quite a handsome sum will be realized therefrom at no distant day.

Special Needs.

Richmond College needs and invites bequests both to her special and general funds. The Trustees desire to increase the number of scholarships in the College. A comparatively small

32

CATALOGUE.

sum of money, well secured, devoted to purposes of this character, may be useful for long years in affording tuition, books, &c., to needy young men.

The endowment of the various Sclwols opens a yet wider range for liberality. By reference to the preceding pages of this Catalogue, it will be noticed that each "School," such as English, Greek, or Mathematics, is independent.

Consequently, donations may be specifically applied to, the endowment of some favorite branch of learning.

In every case, unless objection be made, the name o.f the donor will be given to the .fund so created, whether it be a school or a scholarship. By this means the names of those who aid learning will be perpetually remembered.

Apart from these special objects, the general endowment funds of the College need greatly increased help. No institution of the grade and scope of this College can do its work successfully without a safe as well as a broad foundation. It must be removed to a certain extent from the recurrence .of general financial depression and consequent fluctuations in patronage. A ~teady and growing income alone can give it integrity, permanence and progress.

The legal title of the corporation is simply "Richmond College."

Form of Bequest.

"I give and devise to Richmond College, located in Richmond, Virginia, the following real estate, to wit: (here describe the said real estate as to kind, quantity and situation).

I also give and bequeath to the said College the sum of ----dollars ($----); and the following bonds (or stock), to wit: (here de~cribe the bonds or stock), all of which are to be used for the following purposes, to wit: (here describe the purpose to which it shall be applied)."

Those who propose to make bequests to the College should communicate with the Financial Secretary. Losses have occurred by inattention to this suggestion.

All communications concerning the finances or real estate of the College, and all money due on bonds or open subscriptions, should be sent to REV. CHARLES H. RYLAND, Financial Secretary, Richmond, Virginia.
