At the Annual Commencement, in June, an Exhibition is held of work done by the pupils during the year; and it is expected that the drawings and paintings will not be sent home until after that time.


All members of the Literary Course receive one term of instruction in drawing free.


CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC.


This Department is under the same general management as the other De- partments, and under the special supervision of the Director.


It is the purpose of those having it in charge, so to arrange the course of study that, in pursuing it, one may become a thorough, well-balanced Musician and not a superficial, or one-sided one. As the course of study laid down in our Colleges and Seminaries of learning is intended to give a knowledge, not of Language alone, or of Mathematics, or of Natural Science, or of Meta- physics, but such a comprehension of them all as will form a substantial basis for future attainments ; so in the Conservatory, it is the aim to give each student acquaintance, not with Theory, Piano-Forte, Singing, Organ, or Violin alone, but such a knowledge of them all as will be the groundwork on which special studies and even virtuoso attainments can be superimposed.


The course of study in Theory requires three years.


For Piano, Organ, Singing and Violin, the length of time is not fixed, de- pending as it does upon the acquirements of the student before entering, and upon his talent and diligence. Enough time, however, is required in each of these branches to fit the student for giving sound instruction, which is gener- ally from three to five years.


All students completing the course in four of the above branches are awarded Diplomas by the College, provided they have presented to the Direc- tor satisfactory evidence of proficiency in the fundamental branches of an English education. No one will be graduated who has pursued less than three of the above branches.


COURSE OF STUDY.


The following is an outline of the course pursued here :


HARMONY.


Scales, both Major and Minor, Intervals and their Inversions, Chords in their various Relations, Part-writing, Modulation, Choral, Single and Double Counter - point, Composition, and Analysis of Musical Works.


PIANO FORTE.


Duvernoy, op. 120. Czerny, op. 636. Heller, op. 46. Spindler, op. 141. Selections from Heller, op. 45 and 16. Le Couppey, op. 20. Selections from Krause, op. 5, and Loeschhorn, op. 66, in connection with Czerny, op. 299, approximating metronome time.

Besides these, selections from Loeschhorn, op. 38, 52 and 67, Schmidt, op. 16, and Czerny, op. 740, will be used at the discretion of the teachers.


The æsthetic development will be made to keep pace with the above by the study of Sonatas, Salon-pieces, Trios (with stringed instruments), Concertos and other works, with orchestral accompaniment by the best composers.


CULTIVATION OF THE VOICE.


Careful instruction is given in the use of the voice, and the correct manner of producing a good tone; thorough drill in Technical Exercises, Solfeggios, Vocalises, etc., to give control over, and flexibility to the voice; and practice in singing the best English, German, Italian and French Songs, Operatie Arias and Solos from the Oratorios, for expression and the development of a pure style.


ORGAN.

Miscellaneous selections from the works of Guilmant, Buck, Smart, G. Ad. Thomas, Best, Freyer, Richter, Hesse, Ritter and others.


Exercises in playing Church Music, Voluntaries, accompanying Choirs, Reg- istration, etc., including all that is necessary to give one a thorough mastery over the organ for Church or Concert use.


VIOLIN.


Pupils receive careful instruction as to the correct manner of holding the Violin, using the bow, and producing a good tone.


The course comprises, besides the Schools of David and Sphor, Etudes by Wichtel, Kayser, Kreutzer, Prume, etc., with selections from the compositions of Alard, Rode, De Bertot, Sphor, Lafont, Schumann, Schubert, Weber, Mozart, Beethoven.


Viola and Violoncello are also taught, and pupils who are sufficiently advanced in the study of any of these instruments will have an opportunity for practice in string quartette, trios, concertos, and the Conservatory Orchestra.


Students in the Conservatory are subject to the regular College discipline.


A large and carefully-selected Library of Standard Music, numbering about seven thousand pieces, is open to the student for use in practice, for which a charge of $1.00 to $3.00 per term is made, according to the amount of music required.


Weekly rehearsals are given, at which pupils who are competent are ex- pected to perform. Pupils must furnish or rent their instruments for practice. Pianos can always be rented in town at reasonable rates. Students in other departments, taking lessons in music, are required to make their arrangements with the Director.


Catalogues, containing full particulars concerning this department, can be obtained by addressing the Director, Prof. F. B. Rice, Oberlin, Ohio.


nformation.


ADMISSION.


The educational facilities at Oberlin have always been open to all applicants, without regard to sex or color. Both sexes recite in the same classes when pursuing the same studies. Candidates for admission to any of the depart- ments must furnish satisfactory evidence of good character; and those coming from other colleges must bring a certificate of honorable dismission. None will be received under sixteen years of age, unless committed to the care of some approved resident of the place, after special arrangement with the Faculty. As the student in every department prepares his lessons in his pri- vate room, the College cannot assume the care of those who have not sufficient maturity and self-control to study profitably under such conditions. No student is considered fully a member of the Institution until he has passed a probation of six months satisfactorily to the Faculty; during which time they may pri- vately dismiss him if, for any reason, they deem his connection with the Col- lege undesirable.


TERMS AND VACATIONS.


The school year consists of three terms. The Fall term is fourteen weeks long, closing on the Tuesday preceding Christmas. The Winter and Spring terms embrace each twelve weeks. The Holiday vacation usually consists of two weeks, the Spring vacation of one, and the Summer vacation of eleven. This year, for special reasons, the Spring vacation continues two weeks, and the Summer vacation but ten. See Calendar.


REGULATIONS.


The regulations of the Institution are few and simple, appealing to the stu- dent's self-respect and personal responsibility. He is required to abstain from the use of tobacco and intoxicating drinks. Secret societies are not allowed in connection with the College. No student is allowed to visit one of the other sex at a private room, except by special permission in case of severe sickness.


RELIGIOUS EXERCISES.


All students are required to attend Church twice on Sunday, and to attend daily prayers in the evening at the Chapel, and in the morning with the fam- ilies in which they board. Every class has a weekly exercise in the English Bible, which all are required to attend.


74


OBERLIN COLLEGE.


There is a prayer meeting on Monday evening for all young people, and on Fridays a weekly prayer meeting for each class, conducted by one of the teachers.


EXAMINATIONS.


At the close of each term, the classes are examined in the studies of that term, and at the end of the year there are general examinations, oral or writ- ten, in all departments.


Every recitation and examination is marked, and a record is kept by the Faculty of the attainments of each student, and also of his delinquencies. In- formation concerning his progress and deportment is, when requested, commu- nicated to the parent or guardian, by the head of the department to which the student belongs.


DEGREES AND DIPLOMAS.


The Degree of Bachelor of Divinity is conferred upon the graduates of the Department of Theology; that of Bachelor of Arts upon the graduates of the Classsical Course in the Department of Philosophy and the Arts. The Degree of Master of Arts is conferred upon any Bachelor of Arts of three or more years' standing, who has been engaged in literary or scientific pursuits, and has sustained a good moral character. Diplomas, certifying the successful comple. tion of the prescribed course of study, are given to the graduates of the Liter- ary Course in the Department of Philosophy and the Arts, and to the graduates of the Conservatory of Music. Graduates from the full course in either De- partment, and those receiving the degree of Master of Arts, pay a diploma fee of $5.00 each.


LIBRARIES.


The Libraries connected with the College number over sixteen thousand vol- umes, and are constantly receiving additions. They are made doubly valua- ble to students by the counsel and assistance of a very competent librarian.


CABINETS.


The Cabinets in Geology and Natural History amply illustrate the branches of Mineralogy, Lithological Geology, Palaeontology, Archaeology, Radiate Life, American and Foreign Shells and Insects, and many branches-of Verte- brate Life. Valuable additions are being constantly made to these collections


MICROSCOPICAL LABORATORY.


This Laboratory is supplied with modern instruments of the best quality. Instruction is given in the use of the Microscope, in Vegetable and Animal Histology, in various branches of Biology, and in the Microscopic Structure of Rocks. Students in Botany, Zoology and Geology may elect microscopical work in connection with these subjects.


75


OBERLIN COLLEGE.


CHEMICAL LABORATORY.


Ample facilities are afforded students for special study in Chemistry. The Laboratories are well equipped with conveniences- furnished work-tables, water and gas supplies, fine balances and apparatus for both general and special analytical work. Students pursuing the General Course in Chemistry may in addition elect the Experimental Course in Laboratory Practice. The second term in Chemistry, elective to members of the Junior Class, is devoted to gen- eral Qualitative Analysis. Special and post-graduate students desiring to pur- sue a further course in advanced chemical work, can do so by arrangement with the Professor of Chemistry.


The facilities afforded in the study of Mineralogy are an extensive miner- alogical cabinet, a large collection of crystal models, and convenient blowpipe tables furnished with the best apparatus.


LECTURES.


In addition to the lectures announced in the Courses of Study, Practical Lectures on General Habits, Methods of Study, and other important subjects, are delivered once in two weeks to the young women, by the Principal of the Ladies' Department, and to the young men of the Preparatory Schools by the Principal of those schools.


A lecture is given in the College Chapel to the students of all departments each Thursday afternoon. These lectures discuss a wide range of topics, and are delivered in turn by the President and Professors, and by invited speakers from abroad.


LITERARY SOCIETIES.


The young men have three Literary Societies-the Phi Kappa Pi, the Phi Delta, and the Alpha Zeta; and the young women two-The Ladies' Literary Society, and the Ælioian. These Societies have long maintained a very high standard of literary excellence. They meet each week in attractive, well-fur- nished rooms. The members present essays, orations and discussions, and be- come familiar with parliamentary rules. At each meeting the exercises of the preceding week are reviewed in an extended critique. The five Societies constitute the Union Library Association, which possesses a choice library of over 4,000 volumes, conducts a lecture course, and publishes the " Oberlin Review."


PENMANSHIP.


Arrangements are made to furnish instruction in Penmanship, under a per- manent teacher. A commodious room is devoted to classes in writing. For terms, see table of extra charges, or address the Instructor in Penmanship.

OBERLIN COLLEGE.


FACILITIES FOR SELF SUPPORT.


The College desires in every way to encourage self-supporting students. But it cannot furnish manual labor. Diligent and faithful young men can usually find employment in the village for themselves, with satisfactory com- pensation, for all the time that they can profitably spare from their studies. A large number earn enough from term to term to meet a great part of their ex- penses-by working at trades, doing chores at private houses, taking care of gardens, sawing wood, teaching school in vacation, etc., etc. A few, by rigid economy and hard work, meet all their expenses, while studying, from their earnings. But in such cases health or studies are likely to suffer. No one should come, even for one term, expecting to support himself, without at least thirty or forty dollars at his command to be used as needed. Special arrange. ments are made so that those students who are obliged to teach in the Winter, can make up their studies for the Winter term in the Summer vacation, under the instruction of members of the Faculty. Free tuition is furnished to a limited number of self-supporting students, as provided for in the list of schol- arships enumerated elsewhere, and the College has funds for otherwise aiding certain classes of needy students, to some extent. But the great advantage it offers indigent students is the very low rate at which all its facilities are afforded. The traditions of the College, and the public sentiment of the stu- dents, favor economy in all living expenses.


LADIES' DEPARTMENT.


Young women in all the departments of study are under the supervision of the Principal of the Ladies' Department, and the management of the Ladies' Board. They are required to be in their rooms after eight o'clock in the even- ing during the Spring and Summer months, and after half-past seven during the Fall and Winter months.


Every young woman is required to present, once in two weeks, a written report of her observance and her failure in the observance of the regulations of the Department, signed by the matron of the family in which she boards.


ROOMS AND BOARD.


Rooms and table board can be had in the College buildings or in private families, as preferred.


The Ladies' Hall has rooms for one hundred young women, and a boarding hall for the accommodation of its occupants, and of gentlemen rooming else- where. It is a fine brick building, with pleasant grounds, and easy of access to the recitation rooms. The Principal of the Ladies' Department, and the Assistant Principal, make their home here. Each room is intended for two occupants. It has a closet attached, and is furnished with inside blinds, air-tight wood stove, bedstead, spring bed, husk mattress, carpet, wash-stand, chairs, lamp, and other necessary furniture except bedding. The occupant furnishes her own bedding, towels and table napkins. Room rent in the Hall is $10.50

OBERLIN COLLEGE.


a term for each person. This pays, also, for lights, the privileges of the house and the care of an excellent nurse in any ordinary sickness. Fuel is furnished -delivered in the room -as required, the charge being according to the amount consumed. No room will be considered engaged for any term unless two dol- lars has been paid in advance on rent. This sum will be forfeited if the room is not taken, unless written notice is given to MR. R. HATCH, Superintendent of the Hall, two weeks before the opening of the term. Any one leaving before the end of the term will not be entitled to a return of any part of the money paid for room rent. Room rent is payable each term in advance, and table board each half term in advance, to the Superintendent of the Hall. Applica- tions for admission to the Hall should be made to the Principal of the Ladies Department.


Young women proposing to live in private families are expected to consult the Principal before engaging their boarding places. Young women are allowed to board themselves by making arrangements with the Principal beforehand.


None but students in the Theological Department are allowed to occupy rooms in Council Hall.


Living expenses vary somewhat with the cost of provisions. Students who are willing to live plainly, can live at as low cost and as well, for the money, as in any other college. At present, table board at the Ladies' Hall is $2.75 per week, making cost of room and board at Ladies' Hall about $3.50 per week. In private families table board and furnished rooms range in price, according to quality, from $2.50 to $4.50 per week; fuel and lights extra. There is usually no difficulty in securing board and rooms at any time of the year.


To meet the case of students who, from preference or necessity, wish to bring their expenses down to the lowest point consistent with healthful living, arrangements have been made 'or furnishing board and room for young women at Stewart Hall, corner of Main and Lorain streets, for $2.00 a week, or for $1.50 a week and two hours' work a day. Each room is furnished with bed- stead, mattress, table, chairs, stove, and wash-stand. Bedding and all other articles required for furnishing the room, aside from those just mentioned, are supplied by the occupant. No room will be reserved for a student unless two dollars has been paid in advance on rent. This sum will be forfeited if the room is not taken, unless written notice is given to Mrs. H. D. Lewis, Matron of the Hall, at least two weeks before the opening of the term. The table fare is of the best quality, but plain-dispensing with tea and coffee, and expensive luxuries, for the sake of keeping the price at the lowest rate. Young men are furnished table board at Stewart Hall for $2.00 a week, and can obtain access- able rooms elsewhere at 25 cents a week and upward. Under this arrangement it is believed that students are able to live as cheaply as they can board themselves, while they escape the obvious disadvantages and deprivations of self-boarding. By means of it, and a similar economy in other expenditures, one hundred dollars -- added to the earnings of one or two hours' work a day- can be made to meet all absolutely necessary expenses for tuition, incidentals, board, room, books, fuel, lights and washing for a college year.

Other expenditures, of course, will vary according to the habits and home training of each student. Parents are assured that for the items specified above the maximum estimates there made are ample.


Students can deposit their money with the College 'Treasurer at the open- ing of the term, and draw it out from time to time, in such sums as may be needed, afterward. The officers of the College cannot, however, undertake to exercise any special supervision of the individual expenditures of students.


RAILWAY FARES-REDUCED RATES.


Arrangements have been made with the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway, by which students wishing to make visits home in vacation can pro- cure round trip tickets from Oberlin to any point on that road between Buffalo and Chicago, or to any point on its branch lines to Oil City, Pa., Youngstown, Ohio, Fayette, Ohio, Detroit, Lansing, and Grand Rapids, Mich., and Fort Wayne, Ind., and return, at the special rate of two cents a mile.


79


OBERLIN COLLEGE.


LOCATION AND SURROUNDINGS.


The College is located at Oberlin, Lorain County, Ohio, a pleasant and healthful village of some four thousand inhabitants, thirty-five miles west of Cleveland. Situated on the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway, it is easily accessible from all parts of the country. The place was founded as a home for the College, and the population consists chiefly of those who have been drawn there by educational attractions. This gives it a special atmos- phere of culture and good order, while as a home for students it is remarka- bly free from the temptations and dangers often surrounding school life. There are no drinking saloons in town. But those who seek bad company will find it -or make it-anywhere, and the College does not offer itself as a reformatory for young people who are too wayward for home restraints. Neither does it desire the attendance of the idle or listless. Its facilities are for those who wish to give their full strength to study. The Churches of the place consist of two Congregational-numbering some seven hundred members each -- two Methodist, one Protestant Episcopal, and one Baptist. Each student attends the church of his choice.


MISCELLANEOUS.


It is very desirable that students should be present at the opening of the term. But, where this is impracticable, they are allowed to enter later. No money is refunded to a student who leaves before the close of the term, except in cases where one is excused from his classes, within two weeks of the open- ing of the term, on account of his own sickness; in which event a part of his term bills-about one-half-will be refunded.


Students who do not wish to take a full course, can select such studies in any department as they are prepared to pursue to advantage.


Opportunities are afforded by the lecture courses that are kept up through the most of the College year, to hear the best lecturers in the land; and choice musical entertainments are furnished from time to time, in connection with the Conservatory.


The College has never had any Telegraphic Department, and it has no con- nection with or responsibility for any "Telegraph School " carried on at Oberlin.


Letters of inquiry may be addressed to the Secretary of the College, Mr. J . B. T. MARSH, Oberlin, Ohio.
