"Sinograph BATES COLLEGE LEWISTON, MAINE 1918-1919 This number of the Bates College Bulletin was ready for the press before the order to demobilize the S. A. T. C. had been received from Washington. There was not time enough to pre- pare the annual catalogue, which is usually Bulletin Number 1, before the time limit for distribution as second-class mail matter expired. In spite of the fact that the Bates unit will have been demobilized before this Bulletin comes from the press, the material is herewith presented as a record of what has been done this term, and as the plan that had been adopted for the remainder of the year. The annual College Catalogue will be published in January, 1919, as Bulletin Number 2. 1918 1919 1920 3ul^ Januavv! 3ul^ i .■^amiavv s M T W T F S S M T W T|F S S,M T W| T F s s M T W T F s I 2 3 4 S 6 I 2 3 4 I 2 3 4 5 2 3 7 8 9 11 12 13 s 6 7 8 q 10 6 7 9 10 " 12 4 S 6 7 8 9 10 ■4 IS 16 17 l8 10 20 13 14 15 16 '7 18 '3 14 15 10 17 .819 1 J 12 13 14 IS [b 17 23 24 2S 2627 IQ 21 2223 24 2S 20 21 22 -r 24 25126 18 IQ 20 21 22 23 24 28 29 3a 3" 26 27 28 29I30 31 27 29 30 31 :::: -5 26 27 28 29 3" V Buguet Ifebviuuv Bugust ifcbvuavis .. ..i-.l..

While it has riveted the attention of every civilized man and woman upon our globe and has tested to the utmost every institution of society and government, it has perhaps been most harmful in its results to our colleges. They have suffered in resources, in numbers, and in morale; and many of them seem at least temporarily to have lost the slowly gathered fruits of a half century. The startlingly sudden discontinuance within them of the S, A, T. C. Units, by which they had loyally responded to the call of our Government to aid in furnishing as quickly as possible 60,000 well trained (officers, is a blow almost paralyzing. But though still half dazed and confronting conditions most dishearten- ing, they are rallying and organizing to meet the situa- tion and to conquer their difficulties. And they are now painfully aware that never were college training, college ideals, and college men so needed as in the period of construction, reconstruction, and creation upon which the nations are now entering. With one voice they are calling their sons back to their studies and appealing to the youth of our land to arm themselves for a struggle fiercer than that which has just closed. Nowhere have we seen this appeal more earnestly and effectively made than in the following quotation from a recent bulletin of Washington and Lee Universitv. BACK TO ALMA MATER Tlie international conflict of arms is over, that of commerce and industry is just beginning. The young- men of to-day are facing an era of seething ferment and incessant change, of vast industrial enterprises and merciless competition, of the application of science and machinery to all the processes of civilization. In this universal struggle there is to be no armistice or cessation of hostilities, no League of JSTations to pro- tect the weak, the untrained, and the luiprepared. Worldwide peace, universal brotherhood, the freedom of the seas, ease of travel and communication, the diffusion of knowledge, — all these but intensify the economic and commercial conflict upon whose issues depend individual liappiness and national prosperity. It will be pre- eminently the Age of Mind, its intricate processes and complex activities out of reach of the ignorant, its leader- ship necessarily confined to the educated and highly intelligent. If, therefore, a year of college training was worth to the average ante-bellum student a five-thousand dollar gold bond, its income-producing value will be 50 per cent, greater in the next generation. If a high-school graduate before the war could by taking a four-year col- lege course multiply by ten his chances of winning dis- tinction, the post-bellum aspirant for honors will be (^ven more effectively barred if he is too indolent or un- ambitious to go to college. Thousands of young men whose education was inter- rupted by the call to arms are now streaming homeward. They have tasted the intoxication of the camp and the 10 BATES COLLEGE crowd, the exhilaration of new scenes and great events, the fascination of apphuise and the exercise of anthority. many of them the thrill of hattle and the ecstasy of victory. After sncli experiences the ancient college bell, the sleepy college town, the peacefnl college campns, the monotonons college rontine, the quiet tasks of tlie class- room and laboratory, will seem deadly dnll and their benefits remote and shadowy. To see and follow a far-olf goal is at once the test, the measure, and the nursery of manhood. To choose the easy, the obvious, the immediate, to prefer the here and the now, is at once the proof and the fate of childishness and immaturity. If our multitudes of retnrning sol- diers could think as straight and far as they have learned to shoot, the colleges of America wonld soon be crowded to the limit. GENEUAI. STATEMENT All candidates for admission to the College must offer satisfactory testimonials of good moral character; and those that have been members of other colleges must pre- sent certificates of honorable dismission. Young men desiring information about the College oi- seeking admission should address President George C. Chase, 16 Frve St., Lewiston ; young women, Dean Clara L. Buswell, Rand Hall, Bates College, Lewiston.

This selection must include either Elementary Greek, Elementary French, or Ele- mentary German, Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Science must present in addition to Group I a selection of subjects from Group II aggregating six units according to the valuation there indicated. 14 BATES COLLEGE A FREE MARGIX OF ELECTIVES In special cases, other secondary school subjects, ag- o'regating" not more than two units, will be accepted. Candidates for admission tliat wish to avail themselves of this privilege, must present from their Principals full statements both of the amount and of the quality of work done in such subjects. Only subjects that re- quire serious intellectual efforts will be considered. THE METHODS OF ADMISSION All candidates for admission nmst present evidence of sound moral character, of an approved school course satisfactorily completed, and of sufficient maturity and ability to do college work. THE TWO PLANS OF EXAMINATIONS I. The Old Pla\ of Examination's. To secure admission under this plan, the examination of the candidate must show adequate preparation in the subjects prescribed on page 12, and in enough of the elective subjects listed on page 13 to be credited with a total of fourteen and one-half units. Candidates that meet in full these requirements are admitted to regular standing. Candidates that fail to meet in full the requirements indicated above may be admitted under conditions which must be removed later by complying with certain regulations under the direc- tion of the Committee on Registration. In admitting students with conditions, each case is settled on its merits. Ordinarily, however, a condition of more than two units is not granted. BULLETIN 15 II. The JS'ew Plan of Examinations. To be admitted under this plan a candidate (1) Must present evidence of an approved school course satisfactorily completed ; and (2) Must show in four examinations as explained below that his scholarship is of a satisfactory quality: SCHOOL EECOKD A candidate must present to the Committee on Ad- mission evidence of his secondary school work in the form of an official detailed statement showing (a) The subjects studied by him nnd the gTound covered. (b) The amount of time devoted to each. (c) The quality of his work in each subject. To be approved, this statement must show (a) That the candidate's secondary school course has «-xtended over four years. (b) That his course has been concerned chiefly with languages, mathematics, and history. (c) That the English and Latin of his school pro- gram, if he is a candidate for the A.B., have been pur- sued for not less than the equivalent of five periods per week for three years ; the English for three years, and the French or German for two years, if he is a candidate for the B.S. The candidate for the A.B. is advised to offer four years of Latin if possible ; and the candidate for the B.S. is advised to offer three years of French or (rerman if possible. THE EXAMINATIONS If the official detailed statement presented by the candidate shows that he has satisfactorily completed an 16 BATES COLLEGE approved secondary school course, he may present him- self for examinations in fonr subjects, as follows: For the A.n. For the B.S. 1. 2. 3. English Latin Mathematics (Algebra and Plane Geometry) 1. As for the A.B. 2. Either French or Ger man o and 4. As for the A.B. 4. One of the following subjects : (a) Chemistry. (b) Physics. (c) History : either (1) Greek and Roman, or (2) American, or (3) English. These four examinations must be taken at one time, either in June or in September. Candidates who show by their school records and college examinations that they have the ability to take advantage of college work and college methods, will be admitted without conditions. If a candidate is not admitted, it will moan that his school record and college examinations do not show a scliolarsliip adequate for college work.

COURSES OF IXSTEUCTIOX Most of the work of the Freshman year is required. Some electives are introduced in the second semester of the Freshman year and are increased in number with each succeeding semester. The essentials of a liberal education are constantly kept in view and the attain- ment of knowledge is made tributary to the love of study, the habit of investigation, and the tastes and aptitudes of the scholar. The individuality of students is recog- nized and encouraged without the sacrifice of breadth and thoroughness. Class-room work is supplemented by original observation and research and by a systematic use of the College Library. While in every department the cultural aim is held constant and controlling, the culture sought is of the kind that pays tribute to life. While not mistaking it- self for a professional school or a technical school, the College seeks to make all its instruction practical. Each teacher remembers that forty-three out of every hundred of Bates graduates become educators, and strives to ex- emplify the best Pedagogy. A semester course of one hour a week is devoted to methods of teaching each sec- ondary school subject in which advanced work is done in the College. In addition, the Professor of Educa- tion gives carefully planned courses that, while thor- oughly cultural, ensure to those pursuing them a teacher's certificate of the first class from State Boards of Education. In like manner, the courses in Elocu- tion and in English, especially the courses in Argu- mentation, prove of great value to graduates who •engage in public sj^eaking and, in particular, to those who practice Law ; while the course in Rhetoric and the BULLETIN 21 practical training in Composition afford an admirable preparation for Journalism. So, also, the courses in Biblical Literature and Eeligion, while having a. choice cultural value, are a substantial aid to students contem- plating the Christian Ministry. The thorough courses in Chemistry meet the requirements of the best Medical Schools, and those in Biology receive equal recognition. The work in Mechanics, in Electricity and Magnetism, and in the Elements of Electrical Engineering, assures to the general student of these subjects an intelligent acquaintance with the great natural forces of the in- dustrial world and enables the prospective engineer to gain, at comparatively slight cost, advanced standing in such a school of applied science as the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology. Students wishing to enter Medical Schools after com- pleting two years' work in Bates College must present the complete admission requirements as in the case of students matriculating for the A.B. or B.S. degree. The purpose of such students to pursue a medical course after completing the necessary college work must be attested by a written statement from their parents, or their guardian. A change to regular standing may be made only hj special vote of the faculty. Such students are required to take work in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, French or German, and may elect one course in some other language. A full outline of the regular courses given during the year, as distinguished from the special courses for the S. A. T. C, will be found in Bulletin Xo. 2, to be issued in January, 1919. The following S. A. T. C. courses are in charge of Messrs. Baird, Britan.

ZOOLOGY ZooLociY I. Two one-hour recitations and one two- hour laboratory period each week. Text-book used : Text-hooh of Zoology by Galloway. Recitations deal with general principles of the subject; laboratory work restricted to a study of invertebrate forms. This course will be continued throughout the year for such students as remain in the institution. Instead of repeating Zoology I during the second and third terms, a course in General Biology will be offered to S. A. T. C stu- dents. This course will be offered each term, and will consist of two one-hour recitations and one two-hour lal)oratory period each week. Zoology II. Two one-hour recitations and two two- hour laboratory periods each week. Text-book used: Animal Micrology by Guyer. The work of this course deals with microscopic technique, histology, and em- bryology. The course will be continued throughout the year for pre-medieal stitdents. DEGREES The courses of instruction lead to the degTee of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science. The Bachelor's desrree is conferred on all students 34 BATES COLLEGE that complete one hundred and thirty-one semester hours in the requisite courses, exchisive of tlie elective courses in Oratory. The degree of Master of Arts is conferred on grad- uates of at least three years' stiinding who have com- pleted one year's graduate non-professional study or its equivalent. GKOUP ARRANGEMENT OF STUDIES The different departments of instruction are arranged imder three groups: 1, Languages; II, Philosophy (in- cluding History and the Social Sciences) ; and III, Sciences (includina; Mathematics).

ABSKNCK V\l(n\ KTXMTATIOXS No excuse for absence from recitations or other class 'wercises Avill be li'ranted on the ground of social, literary or athletic enuaiiements. No student will l)e excused from regular work to pre- ])are for or to take an examination. Any examination taken under such conditions shall be regarded as a failure. Students that have been absent one week or more from any course are required to take at least one written lesson for each four weeks of absence, or fraction thereof. kx(t\sh:s The excuse otHccr for young men is the ['resident, or, in his absence, th(> Acting President; for young women, the Dean. These officers will have regular office hours and may be found at their ottices every day on which reeitations are held. Whenever j)ossible, excuses should bf obtained before the absences occur. (1aims for ex- I'Uses must b(^ ])resented within two days after students I't'turn. 36 BATES COLLEGE The Registrar will keep at lier office a complete record of all absences and of all excuses granted. For ever}^ unexcused absence from class one-fifth of an hour's semester credit will be deducted from tiie stu- dent's total credits ; and for each unexcused absence from College exercises immediately preceding or immediately following a recess or a vacation a double penalty is imposed. Excuses for tardiness must be presented to the in- structor at the hour at which the tardiness occurs. Otherwise such tardiness will be treated as an unexcused absence. EXAMIInTATIONS Written examinations are given at the close of each semester and at such other times as the instructors may determine. RANK BILLS These are sent to the parent or guardian of each stu- dent at the close of each semester. A student's work in a course is reported according to the following grades A, B, C, D and E. A sig-nifies a rank from 90 to 100 B, from 80 to 90 ; C, from 70 to 80 ; D, from 60 to 70 E, failure. STUDENT ADVISERS Near the beginning of the College year the young men of each class are divided into groups; and for each group some teacher acts as a special adviser. The at- tempt is made to assure to each student a true friend from whom in any perplexity or emergency he may freely ask counsel and aid. It is one of the cherished aims of the College to foster intimate and mutually helpful relations between teachers and students. At a BULLETIN 37 stated time and place ouce a month each student reports his church attendance to his adviser. HEALTH OF STUDENTS The heahh of students is an object of constant care. Physical examinations are given each year, and suitable (jxercise is prescribed for each student. Lewiston has two of the best hospitals in New England, and these are alw^ays open at special, reasonable rates to students re- quiring the services of skilful physicians or surgeons. YEAKLY EXPENSES FOR YOUNG MEN Tuition, $80.00 $80.O(» Room with Board, 300.00 to 330.00 Lights, laundry, books, etc.. 15.00 30.00 $295.00 $340.00 * Each Freshman pays a fee of one doUar for his med- ical examination, chart and handbook. Students are advised in regard to selecting their rooms. Eooms for young men, except in John Bertram Hall, are unfurnished. Each man, on engaging a room in a College building, deposits a fee of five dollars with the Assistant Treasurer. This sum is credited to him as part payment of his rent for the first semester. Stu- dents are held responsible for the rent of the rooms selected, unless other satisfactory arrangements are made with the Assistant Treasurer. Students, except those living at home, are expected to board at the College Commons. No permission to board elsewhere will be given except under definite arrangeinents with the Com- mittee on the Commons. Board at the Commons is $5.25 per week. Board must be paid in advance at in- 38 BATES COLLEGE tervals of two weeks, and those who fail to meet this requirement will promptly be deprived of attendance at the Commons tables. YEARLY EXPENSES FOR YOUNG WOMEN Tuition, $80.00 $80.00 Room with Board. 198.00 to 220.00 Text-books, class dues, etc., 20.00 30.00 $273.00 $330.00 Residence on the campus is required of all young women students not living with their families, except as special permission to live elsewhere may be granted to those partially self-supporting. Most of the rooms- ac- commodate two students. All the rooms are heated, lighted, and equipped with the heavy furniture. A limited number of young women may secure room with board in the Cheney dining room for $161.00 and* service amounting to not more than an hour daily. Stu- dents wholly dependent upon their own efforts are ad- vised to accumulate some reserve funds before entering College. To retain a room for the ensuing year, a deposit of $5.00 must be made on or before June 1st. This amount will be refunded to students prevented from en- tering, if application for its return is made before Sep- tember 1st. No reduction can be made for temporary absence. For withdrawals in case of illness the loss will be shared by the College, for one-half the current semester. Correspondence regarding living arrangements should be addressed to the Dean of Women. Checks should be made payable to "Rand Hall Account." BULLETIN ?,<) LABOKATORY FEE« All students taking laboratory courses in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and Geology, are charged an addition- al fee varying from two to five dollars each semester, according to the nature and ammint of tlio M'ork. BILLS A deposit of twenty-five dollars with the Assistant Treasurer is reqtiired from each student on the first day of each semester. ^loditications of this rule may be made with the President for students having scholar- ships or deferred tuition. Bills for the first semester must be paid in full to the Assistant Treasurer by No- vember 1."), and for the second semester by March 15. Students who are unable to pay their bills on or before the above dates must present to the Assistant Traasurer their requests for extension of time for payment before the date on which the bills are due. The Assistant Treasurer has authority to extend the time for pajonent for a period not exceeding two months. In exceptional cases, tlie payment of not more than one-half of the cur- rent bill may be postponed till the opening of the follow- ing semester. No extension can be gTanted to Seniors { chapel in military form has been most impressive. The brief daily services have been characterized by a i-everence that all have felt and that has expressed itself in the bearing of all the members of the student body — soldiers, civilians, and young women. It may be hoped that chapel services at Bates may forever l)e more serious, sincere, truly devotional, and in every way help- ful by reason of the S. A. T. C. While the Government will undoubtedly do all that may be consistent in helping Bates to meet the financial loss that must be sustained through this sudden and wholly unsuspected demobilization of her S. A. T. C it is certain that the year will be exceptionally, severely trying, by reason of the changes that will at once largely increase expenditures and diminish receipts. GENEKAL INFOEMATIOA^ COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS The Bates Student is published weekly under the di- rection of Editors and Managers selected from the Junior Class. The first mnnber was issued in Jan- uary, 1873. The Bates Bulletin, published every three months, gives full information respecting the progress of the College. It will be sent to any address, upon applica- tion to the Registrar, for fifty cents a year. THE PUBLIC SERVICE OF BATES To all who can prize her contributions to the intel- lectual and moral forces that must save our country Bates can unhesitatingly appeal. Of her graduates about 43 per cent, have become teachers, and nearly 11 per cent, ministers, the latter being distributed among ten religious denominations. Within recent years Bates has made important contributions to the foreign mission field. Eighty-one graduates have filled posi- tions in Universities and College, and more than this number have won distinction as State, City, and District Superintendents and as Principals of important Sec- ondary Schools. Among the Higher Institutions to which Bates has contributed teachers are Albion, Am- herst, Amherst Agricultural, Armour Institute, Bates. Bishop, Brown University, Carleton, Colgate Univer- sity, Connecticut Agi-icultural, Cooper Institute, Cornell University, Dartmouth, Denison University, Drury, Fairrnount, Grant Universitv, Harvard Universitv.

In .Vuthorship, on the Bench, in Legislation, in Journalism, Law, Medicine, and Engineering, Bates has distinguished representatives ; while nearly the en- tire body of her Alumni have proved themselves pure, earnest, useful citizens, ready for every good word and work, and making happier and better the communities in which they have lived. The thorough preparation that Bates gives for public speaking is shown by the honors won in the hist thirteen years in thirty -one out of forty-one inter-collegiate debates— ^eventeen of these with Universities. More than ^2ie^hundred graduates and nnder-graduates are now in the service of their country on land or sea. Among them are a Brigadier General and Chaplains, Majors, Judge Advocates, Captains, Lieutenants, Sergeants, and men not less pa- triotic in the ranks. ILVTES AND THE (^VRiYEGIE FOUXDATIOX The high standards of scholarship maintained at Bates and the l)readtli and liberality of her administra- tive policy arc indicated by the fact that she was ad- 4S BATES COLLEGE mitted to the beiioiits of The Caruegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching- in June, 1907. She has been characterized from the begiiniing of her history at once by her insistence upon Cliristian standards of char- acter and conduct and by her freedom from sectarian- ism. Her original charter contained no denominational or creedal conditions; and the slight change from the breadth of management that had been made in 189.3 was, by the unanimous vote of her Trustees, removed in 1906. Her application of Christianity to life finds ex- pression in lier supreme endeavor to educate her students for good citizenship and for self-denying service to man- kind. GIFTS .Ml departments of Bates College are under the care of the same Board of Trustees, and all gifts and bequests should be made to "The President and Trustees of Bates College." When bequests are designated for the uses of a particular department, or for any other special pur- pose, they are limited to such purposes. But the ex- perience of colleges shows that it is desirable to have the specific use of the income and endownnents left as far as possible to be determined by the Trustees as the needs of the growing work may demand. The work of Bates College has greatly outgrown the present equipment, and there is pressing need of additional endowments, scholar- ships, and buildings. FORM OF BEQUEST I give and bequeath to The President and Trustees of Bates College, a corporation existing in Lewiston. Maine, the sum of Dollars, for an endowment fund, to be called Fund (or Professorship, or Scholarship).
