History
In recognition of an increasing need for educating young people in an atmosphere permeated with the spirit of Christ and his teachings, some of the leaders in the Church of the Brethren of Eastern Pennsylvania conceived the idea of establishing an insti- tution of learning under the immediate control of the Church. Consequently, on November 29, 1898, a meeting was called in the Reading Church to discuss the need and feasibility of founding a college in Eastern Pennsylvania. After a number of subsequent meetings Elizabethtown was finally chosen on June 7, 1899, as the site for the new school. Elizabethtown College was the name se- lected for the institution and the first classes were conducted No- vember 13, 1900.
Ground was broken for Alpha Hall, July 10, 1900, and a catalog published the following August. Rider Memorial Hall was erected in 1905 ; then followed Fairview Apartments in 1920, Gibble Memorial Science Hall in 1928, and the Student-Alumni Gymnasium-Auditorium in 1929.
Although the charter expressly designated that the college was to be under the control of the Church of the Brethren (changed from German Baptist Brethren when the Church changed its name), yet the ownership lay in the hands of individual contribu- tors until April 26, 1917, when at the District Conference of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, assembled at Bareville, the own- ership and control of Elizabethtown College was transferred from the contributors to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. At the District Conference of October 30, 1917, the Southern District of Pennsylvania upon invitation decided to share conjointly in the ownership and control of the college. At these meetings the Eastern District selected eight trustees and the Southern District four trustees — the representation being on a pro rata basis with two members resident in Elizabethtown. These trustees assumed full control on January 2, 1919, when they met and organized under the charter, which was so amended as to place full owner- ship and control into the hands of the Eastern and Southern Dis- tricts of Pennsylvania of the Church of the Brethren. During
[3]

ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
the year 1932 both districts granted the Alumni Association of the College the privilege of electing two additional trustees.
On January 2, 1919, was begun the $400,000.00 campaign au- thorized by the Board of Trustees, who had carefully studied the situation caused by the requirements of the laws of Pennsylvania on the standardization of colleges. It was decided that if Eliza- bethtown College was to fulfill its mission to the Church in the two districts it must standardize. The campaign was successfully closed on January 28, 1921.
At once, upon the completion of the campaign, the work of reorganization was begun. The amendment of the charter neces- sary to standardize the school was applied for by the trustees of the college. Thereupon the proper resolutions for the proposed amendment to the charter were presented to the two districts in a most unique District Meeting held on April 28, 1921, at Richland, Pennsylvania. This was the regular meeting of the Eastern Dis- trict of Pennsylvania, at which the Southern District of Pennsyl- vania was also represented. In the fall of 1921 the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas acted favorably on the application and sent the amended charter to the State Council of Education at Harrisburg. In the meantime Dr. Edgar Fahs Smith, former Provost Emeritus of the University of Pennsylvania, was ap- pointed by the State Council to pay an official visit to the college and to report his findings. Upon his recommendation the State Council of Education passed favorably on the amended charter, thus granting the college the privilege to confer the baccalaureate degrees. This action was taken December 19, 1921.
By increasing the material equipment of the college and by strengthening the faculty the college secured membership in the Association of American Colleges. On May 2, 1935, the Execu- tive Committee of the Association passed favorably on the appli- cation of Elizabethtown College for membership, and on January 17, 1936, the College was formally received into the Association of American Colleges.
Location
Elizabethtown College is located in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, a prosperous town of thirty-five hundred inhabitants in the north- ern part of fertile Lancaster County, aptly styled the “Garden Spot of the World.” The town is a busy, growing place. Within its borough limits are located eight or ten manufacturing concerns, all of which are prosperous industries. The main line of the Penn- sylvania Railroad, connecting New York and Chicago by the way of Lancaster and Philadelphia, passes through the town.
Elizabethtown has direct connection with Lancaster and Hershey by trolley ; at the latter place connection is made with the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad, connecting Harrisburg and New York by the way of Reading. Furthermore, Elizabethtown is located on the concrete highway connecting the State Capital and Philadelphia through Lancaster. It is situated equidistant from four county seats, Harrisburg, Lancaster, York, and Leba- non. Auto bus lines connect Elizabethtown with the large cities in the eastern part of the United States.
The town is near the Conewago Hills. Its landscape is most charming, and its hills, on one of which the college is located, are beautiful. This beautiful, healthful location has attracted to this locality the widely-known Masonic Home, the Patton Schools, and the lately created Institution for Crippled Children.
The gorgeous sunsets on the western horizon will ever live in the memory of those who have attended Elizabethtown College. Several miles west of Elizabethtown flows the Susquehanna River — a lordly stream winding among verdant hills. All these natural beauties, together with the peaceful location of the college, afford unexcelled opportunities for study and research.

Admission
Application for Admission
The first step in securing admission to Elizabethtown College is the filing of a formal application by the prospective student. These application blanks may be secured by addressing the college. A student coming from another institution must present a certificate of good standing and of honorable dismissal.
Method of Admission
Students from high schools, academies, and normal schools ap- proved by the faculty, or from other colleges, and candidates who have passed the examinations of the College Entrance Examina- tion Board of the Middle States and Maryland are admitted on certificate.
The college furnishes a blank for this purpose ; no diploma is sent. School principals, after filling out these blanks, should for- ward them to the Dean of the college.
Students are permitted to matriculate for a degree with two units of condition, but under no circumstances will the college accept less than a complete four-year high school course for its equivalent as the basis for admission. Such candidates must re- move all conditions before the opening day of the next academic year.
Graduates of approved senior high schools who have previously completed the requirements of a standardized three-year course in a junior high school will be admitted on presentation of satisfac- tory evidence of having completed twelve units of senior high school work.
Students completing their high school course at midyear will be admitted at the opening of the second semester. By taking two summers’ work, the courses of the first semester may be completed and the student graduate with those who entered in the fall semester.

Requirements for Admission
Only those applicants are admitted who are graduates of a first- class high school or who have an equivalent preparation. The sub- jects presented for admission fall into two groups: 1. Prescribed, including from eight to ten and one-half entrance units. 2. Elec- tive, four and one-half to seven entrance units; total, fifteen Car- negie units. A unit represents the value of a year course given five periods a week for the entire year, each period being forty minutes in length or a total of 120 clock hours.
All students admitted to college will be examined in English composition on a day appointed soon after the opening of the term. Those found deficient in spelling, punctuation, or other essentials of good usage will be obliged to take special work in this subject at their own expense.
The requirements for entrance upon the various groups of study are indicated in the following tabular summary:

Reports in the standing of each student are issued quarterly. The reports are issued to both parent and student. The parents or guardians of a student doing unsatisfactory work will be noti- fied to this efFect.
Absences
The absence system is administered by the Faculty Committee on Admission and Credits.
For every 18 clock hours of absences from classes one semester hour of credit shall be deducted from some course in which the greatest number of absences have occurred, although other factors such as grades, field of major, may be taken into consideration.
Extraordinary cases shall be taken into advisement by the Com- mittee on Admission and Credits.
Absences incurred on account of exigencies such as prolonged sickness of the student, the death of a relative, duty away from college as an official representative of the institution, substitute teaching, or approved field trips, are counted at one-half the above rate.
Absences immediately preceding and immediately following catalogued vacation will be counted double.
. Courses and Credits
Credits are designated in terms of semester hours. A semester hour includes one hour a week of class work or two hours of labo- ratory work a week for a semester.

A — 90 to 99, distinguished ; B — 80 to 89, good ; C — 70 to 79, satisfactory ; D — 60 to 69, poor ; E — 50 to 59, conditioned but entitled to reexamination ; F— failure ; I— incomplete ; W — with- drew from class ; Abs — absent from examination.
Terms and Vacations
The college year consists of two semesters of eighteen weeks each. The first semester begins early in September and continues to the latter part of January ; the second semester begins at the close of the first semester and ends with Commencement the first week of J une. There are two vacations : one at Christmas, and one at Easter.
Chapel and Church Attendance
All students are required to attend the chapel exercises held each school day of the week. Any student who because of con- scientious scruples or for other unavoidable reasons cannot attend chapel should secure permission from the President of the College to be absent from these services.
All students are urged to attend religious services each Sunday in the church of their choice. Boarding students are also urged to attend the regular midweek prayer meeting conducted at the Col- lege. Loyalty to the church of their choice is held in high esteem.
Opportunity for Summer Study
Elizabethtown College conducts two separate, but closely inte- grated, sessions during the summer. For a period of three weeks, from May 26 to June 14, the Intersession is conducted, and the Summer Session follows immediately, for a period of six weeks, from June 16 to July 26.
The Intersession is organized for students who cannot arrange for a six-weeks summer session, and for students who for urgent reasons must devote practically the whole summer to study. Dur- ing this short session a student will enroll for one three-semester- hour course. This session closes in time for students to enter the regular summer session either at Elizabethtown or at some other institution.
The Summer Session is organized for students who can arrange to spend six weeks in school during the summer. Students may enroll for two three-semester-hour courses. It is possible to earn nine semester hours of standard credit toward a degree by attend- ing both the Intersession and the Summer Session.
Extension Courses
Teachers in service and others who can qualify for entrance to college may enroll for courses at such points where there is a suffi- cient number to justify the organization of a class. Extension work will not be considered as satisfying residence requirements,
ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
17
nor will more than twelve semester hours of extension work be accepted during any academic year.
Evening and Saturday classes are organized for students or teachers-in-service who find it convenient to carry on their prepa- ration during their leisure or spare time. Such part-time campus study may be counted as fulfilling residence requirements. Any one interested should write to the Dean.
Schedule and Enrollment
A student’s program of studies is determined largely by the curriculum in which he is enrolled. The work of the first year in each curriculum is to a large extent prescribed. This insures a broad foundation so as to enable the student to select wisely the field of concentration. A wide range of electives is offered begin- ning with the Sophomore year.
Students are required to take all the prescribed courses of each year.
No student may change from one Curriculum or course to an- other without permission from the Dean.
No credit will be granted for any work for which the student has not formally enrolled.
Students may not enroll for more than the specified number of hours indicated in the different years of the various curricula, unless by special permission from the Committee on Admission and Curricula. A student whose grade of work falls below an average of “B” should not apply for excess hours.
A candidate for the A.B. degree must choose his Major in one of the following fields : Bible, Education, English, History, Lan- guages, Mathematics, Music, Psychology and Philosophy, So- ciology.
A candidate for the B.S. degree must choose his Major from one of the following fields : Biology, Chemistry, Commerce, Eco- nomics, Education, History, Mathematics, Sociology.
Majors and Minors
Each candidate for a degree is required to elect a major sub- ject on which he expects to concentrate, and two properly related minors, or he may choose two majors. A major subject consists of at least eighteen semester hours, and a minor of twelve semester hours. Certain first-year or introductory courses in several fields may not be counted toward a major. The choice of majors and minors shall be made by the student with the advice and approval of the Dean of the College.
Majors may be chosen from the following departments:
Bible
Biology
Chemistry

Curriculum in Science Leading to B.S. Degree
The course in Science leading to the degree of Bachelor of Sci- ence, is outlined so as to give the necessary preparation for en- trance to the study of medicine, dentistry, engineering, pharmacy. The curriculum is planned so that a student may obtain the neces- sary undergraduate training necessary for graduate work.
Majors may be elected from the following fields: Biology, Chemistry, Economics, Education, History, Mathematics, Physics, Sociology.
Medicine
In view of the fact that the leading medical schools have many more applicants for admission than they can accommodate, it is evident that no student should attempt to enter with only the mini- mum requirements fulfilled. We strongly urge all pre-medical students to take the full four years of the course in Science as outlined.
The following courses should be taken so as to meet the mini- mum requirements as set forth by the Council on Medical Educa- tion and Hospitals.
Required subjects :
Biology 8 S. H.
Chemistry 12 S. H.
Physics 8 S. H.
English Composition 6 S. H.
Non-Science subjects not including English 12 S. H.
Modern Foreign Language 12 S. H.
Subjects strongly urged:
A Modern Foreign Language 6-12 S. H.
Advanced Botany or Zoology 3-6 S. H.
Psychology or Logic 3-6 S. H.
Adv. Mathematics, including Algebra and Trigo- nometry 3-6 S. H.
Other suggested electives :
English (additional). Economics, History, Sociology, Political Science, Mathematics, Latin, Greek, Drawing.
Osteopathy
The entrance requirement for admission to the schools of Oste- opathy are practically the same as for entrance to the study of medi- cine. Students who contemplate entering this field should secure specific information from the institution they expect to enter before the sophomore year.

Psychology Mathematics Physical Education History Social Science
The work usually required of students who enter dentistry, pharmacy or osteopathy is covered by the first courses in Biology, Chemistry, and some Organic Chemistry, Physics, including some laboratory work, and the course in English Composition. It is of course to be understood that the more thorough the training the better the chances to succeed. No one should be satisfied with the minimum preparation.
Students who expect to take up graduate work in any of the fields of Science should consult with the head of the department in which he expects to do his graduate work to determine what courses are required as the necessary undergraduate preparation.

ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
Curriculum in Elementary Education Leading to B.S. Degree
Students who desire to prepare to teach in the elementary school should enroll in the four-year curriculum. By completing the work of this curriculum the prospective teacher will receive thor- ough preparation for the profession of teaching. It is the purpose of the State Department of Public Instruction that all prospective teachers as well as teachers-in-service should become conscious of the need of comprehensive training. The reasons for this lie close to the surface. The statement that the teaching profession is overcrowded is only partially true. Everybody admits that there are too many teachers who have met only minimum requirements for entrance to the teaching profession. But when we consider only the really “good” teachers, then there is no over-supply. In fact there is a shortage of such teachers. The number of “certi- fied” teachers in the country creates a difficult situation for the weak teacher, but a splendid opportunity for the strong teacher. The world will make room for a “better” teacher.
Requirements for Certification in Elementary Field
The provisional college certificate is issued to applicants who have completed an approved four-year college curriculum in the elementary field. This regulation applies to all prospective teachers who began their college education after February 1, 1939.
Persons who began their preparation for teacher education be- tween January 1, 1937, and February 1, 1939, must complete a minimum of three years, or the equivalent, of professional prepa- ration for teaching, before applying for a certificate.
The state standard limited certificate is valid for three years, renewable for an additional period of three years upon a rating of “low” or better, and the satisfactory completion of twelve semester hours of further approved education. Subsequent re- newals are contingent upon a rating of “middle” or better and twelve semester hours of additional approved education. The addi- tional preparation required for renewal of this certificate is to be completed before the expiration of the three-year period for which the certificate has been issued, whether the certificate has been taught upon or not.

Curriculum in Secondary Education Leading to B.S. Degree
Students who desire to prepare to teach in the secondary field should enroll in this curriculum. This curriculum is a frank ad- mission that the teacher who expects to teach in the high school needs the same thorough professional preparations as does the teacher in the elementary field. The freshman years of both the elementary and the secondary curricula are devoted to courses fundamental in a college education. Differentiation begins in the second year. This makes it possible for a student to select either the elementary or the secondary field at the beginning of the sophomore year.
Students should select their major and minors not later than the beginning of the sophomore year.
Upon the completion of this curriculum the State Department of Public Instruction will issue the Provisional College Certificate. The regulations governing the issuance of the form of certificate are given below :

Secretarial Training
There has never been a time when the door of opportunity for trained men and women opened more widely than it does today. There is a demand for well-trained assistants, those who have had training beyond the purely routine work of stenographer. Present day methods in business houses, professional offices, educational institutions, and private homes demand initiative, poise, and a cul- ture which only sound educational training can give.
The secretarial course has been developed with the stringent business requirements kept in mind. Although the course gives thorough preparation for responsible positions yet its value is not restricted to young men and women who wish to become secre- taries. It offers excellent cultural and practical training to those who may assume the care of their own homes and property, and to those who desire an intelligent approach to business.
Students are strongly urged to elect a two-year program. The added breadth of education and of specific knowledge will be in- valuable in obtaining and holding positions in the business world. The work of the first two years aims to give a broad cultural and practical training to those who complete the work as outlined.
However, those who find it impossible to remain more than one year may select from the courses offered in either of the two years, those which best meet their needs.
By the proper election of courses students will be able to use all the credit earned toward the required work for the B.S. degree in Commercial Education. This course is really a secretarial course on the college level with a distinctly terminal-vocational aspect.

General Information
Purpose
The founders of Elizabethtown College stated in the original charter that the purpose of the College was “to give such har- monious development to the physical, mental, and moral powers of both sexes as will best fit them for the duties of life and pro- mote their spiritual interests.”
In accordance with this purpose the College aims to acquaint students with a knowledge of the world in which they live and of the thought life of the human race; to train them in the perform- ance of their social and civil obligations and duties so as to fit them to become effective members of their respective communities; to exercise them in the methods of correct thinking and to promote the habit of continuous study and mental alertness; to develop in them a love for artistic and ethical values ; to inculcate in them an appreciation of good manners and social resourcefulness ; and to encourage them to share actively in a living evangelical Christian faith that permeates the instruction given in all departments of the College.
Ever since its inception Elizabethtown College has professed to be a distinctively Christian college and has endeavored to maintain the high ideals of its founders. It has always aimed to furnish an atmosphere in which parents would feel that the highest type of Christian character would be developed along with sound schol- arship. Christ is held to be the perfect example of life, the con- summate revelation of God ; and the Saviour of mankind ; the Bible, the supreme and final authority in our life among men ; and the church, the institution to maintain and promote the life of God in the heart of man.
Although Elizabethtown College was primarily founded to pro- vide the youth of the Church of the Brethren with opportunities for obtaining a Christian education, members of other churches and also non-Christians of good moral character are invited to share these opportunities. Practically every year from twelve to fifteen denominations are represented in the student body.

The Bulletin is published quarterly by the college and includes, the Report of the Officers of the College, the Alumni Edition, the Intersession and Summer Session Announcements, The Catalogue Number.
Etownian is published bi-weekly during the college year by stu- dents of the college. It aims to bring to its readers the news about the college and the alumni.
The Students’ Handbook issued each college year gives the nec- essary information to new students.
The Etonian is published annually by the Junior Class. It con- tains a pictorial representation of the activities, organizations, and surroundings of the college, and gives interesting information about the students and the alumni.
Buildings and Grounds
Elizabethtown College is ideally located on an attractive campus of some fifty acres. A large lake, a quarter-mile track, a baseball diamond, a soccer field, and tennis courts transform this field of natural landscape into an athletic field and grove campus which is a delightful spot for the student body to resort to for exercise, rest, and invigoration. When developed it will most adequately provide for the physical development of the students of our Col- lege.
Alpha Hall
The original building is called Alpha Hall, and is a substantial brick structure. On the first floor are five recitation rooms, the offices, and the reception room. The space on the second and third floors is entirely devoted to dormitories.
Memorial Hall
During January of 1905 the trustees decided to erect a new four-story brick building, to the memory of Joseph Rider, a most liberal contributor. The building was dedicated March 4, 1906, as Memorial Hall. On the first floor are located the College Store and the large typewriting and stenography room. The library and one classroom comprise the second floor. The third floor contains the Chapel and Commercial Hall. The fourth story contains four- teen dormitory rooms of a convenient and handsome type.
Fairview Apartments
On June 7, 1921, the third large college building was dedicated. This is a three-story brick building, sixty-five by sixty-six feet. The basement contains the newly equipped laundry, shower baths, toilets, cold cellars, and boiler room. The first floor contains six apartments equipped with modern conveniences and adapted for small families. The second and third floors are so constructed that very little additional labor and expense will be necessary to equip them exactly like the first floor. At present the second and third floors are used for boys’ dormitories.
Gibble Memorial Building
For some years the Gibble Family Association contemplated the erection of a building to house the work in science. This was ac- complished during the summer of 1927. They have erected a large brick building. The first floor provides two large laboratories, one large lecture room, a stock room and an office for the department of Biology. The second floor accommodates the departments of

ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
Physics and Chemistry, with two Chemistry and three Physics laboratories, with stock rooms and offices. There is another large lecture room on the second floor. All the laboratories are equipped with the latest laboratory furniture and fixtures.
This building fills a long-felt need and is a splendid memorial to the Gibble Family Association.
Auditorium-Gymnasium
In view of the unsatisfactory conditions in the former gymna- sium in the basement of Rider Memorial Hall, the Alumni of the College took steps to raise a fund tor an auditorium-gymnasium. This movement was given an impetus in the challenge of Mr. Joseph C. Johnson of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, to give a sum equal to that raised by the alumni and friends of the Col- lege. After this challenge was successfully met by the alumni, stu- dents and friends of the College, the beautiful and commodious Auditorium-Gymnasium was erected and then dedicated in May, 1929.
The building is one hundred and eight feet long and sixty-three feet wide. A thousand people can be comfortably seated on the main floor and the balcony of this building. This auditorium was a need long felt during Bible institutes, conferences, and other large gatherings at the College. The stage was equipped by the Alumni Association, and the Class of 1929.
The main floor is one of the best gymnasium floors in the state. The size of the floor is sixty-one feet by seventy-six feet and accommodates from six to seven hundred spectators. All classes in physical education meet in this building for lectures and gym- nasium work.
The basement is equipped with lockers and lavatories for both men and women. Offices and storage rooms occupy the space under the balcony.
The alumni, students, and friends who filled this need have made a real contribution to the success of the work of the College by the erection of this substantial building.
Dwellings
Two double dwellings are located on the campus and are rented to members of the faculty.
The Library
The library is located in Rider Memorial Hall. It has been selected with the object of making it especially useful to college professors and students. The entire collection is classified accord- ing to the Dewey decimal system. A large number of the books
ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
67
are catalogued by author and subject using Library of Congress cards. The number of volumes, including public documents, is over twelve thousand.
In the reference section are found encyclopedias, dictionaries, indexes and a carefully selected list of books for reference. The file of bound volumes of magazines is unusually complete.
A fund, amounting to two hundred dollars, donated in memory of Elias M. Baugher, was given by friends to the college. A fund, amounting to three hundred dollars, donated by members of the Church of the Brethren residing in Eastern and Southern Penn- sylvania, also provides library support. The income of these funds is used in the purchase of books for the Bible department.
The library regularly receives over seventy scholarly periodicals, abstracts, indexes and transactions of learned societies.
The library is open daily during term time, Sundays and holi- days excepted, and is available for consultation to any one not connected with the college, free of charge.
Laboratories
The Biological Laboratory occupies well lighted quarters and possesses the latest type of laboratory furniture. Through the interest and generosity of Graybill Minnich, it has been equipped with modem compound and disectry microscopes, microtomes, and other apparatus. There are also a set of Leuckart zoological charts, steam and dry sterilizers. Recently the Trustees have added electric incubators and paraffine oven, an autoclave, a Stokes water still, hot plates, nets, and other collecting apparatus. The laboratories in physics and chemistry are equipped with modern apparatus. Recently modern tables and desks have been installed in both laboratories. Friends of the school have made valuable contributions toward this equipment. John M. Miller and James H. Breitigan, both of the class of 1905, gave a liberal sum for the department.
Lake Placida
Several years ago the Alumni Association conceived the idea of beautifying the college campus. This finally led to the purchase of an adjoining tract of land containing a stream of pure running water. At once the student body built a long concrete wall across a ravine and thus formed a lake of over three acres on the college campus near the baseball field and running track. In the fall and spring a number of boats grace this body of water and afford delightful recreation for the students. In winter the lake is often covered with skaters enjoying this healthful form of exercise. With the trees and shrubbery planted around the shore the lake is a real beauty spot frequently sought for vesper services.

History
In recognition of an increasing need for educating young people in an atmosphere permeated with the spirit of Christ and his teachings, some of the leaders in the Church of the Brethren of Eastern Pennsylvania conceived the idea of establishing an insti- tution of learning under the immediate control of the Church. Consequently, on November 29, 1898, a meeting was called in the Reading Church to discuss the need and feasibility of founding a college in Eastern Pennsylvania. After a number of subsequent meetings Elizabethtown was finally chosen on June 7, 1899, as the site for the new school. Elizabethtown College was the name se- lected for the institution and the first classes were conducted No- vember 13, 1900.
Ground was broken for Alpha Hall, July 10, 1900, and a catalog published the following August. Rider Memorial Hall was erected in 1905 ; then followed Fairview Apartments in 1920, Gibble Memorial Science Hall in 1928, and the Student-Alumni Gymnasium-Auditorium in 1929.
Although the charter expressly designated that the college was to be under the control of the Church of the Brethren (changed from German Baptist Brethren when the Church changed its name), yet the ownership lay in the hands of individual contribu- tors until April 26, 1917, when at the District Conference of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, assembled at Bareville, the own- ership and control of Elizabethtown College was transferred from the contributors to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. At the District Conference of October 30, 1917, the Southern District of Pennsylvania upon invitation decided to share conjointly in the ownership and control of the college. At these meetings the Eastern District selected eight trustees and the Southern District four trustees — the representation being on a pro rata basis with two members resident in Elizabethtown. These trustees assumed full control on January 2, 1919, when they met and organized under the charter, which was so amended as to place full owner- ship and control into the hands of the Eastern and Southern Dis- tricts of Pennsylvania of the Church of the Brethren. During

ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE
the year 1932 both districts granted the Alumni Association of the College the privilege of electing two additional trustees.
On January 2, 1919, was begun the $400,000.00 campaign au- thorized by the Board of Trustees, who had carefully studied the situation caused by the requirements of the laws of Pennsylvania on the standardization of colleges. It was decided that if Eliza- bethtown College was to fulfill its mission to the Church in the two districts it must standardize. The campaign was successfully closed on January 28, 1921.
At once, upon the completion of the campaign, the work of reorganization was begun. The amendment of the charter neces- sary to standardize the school was applied for by the trustees of the college. Thereupon the proper resolutions for the proposed amendment to the charter were presented to the two districts in a most unique District Meeting held on April 28, 1921, at Richland, Pennsylvania. This was the regular meeting of the Eastern Dis- trict of Pennsylvania, at which the Southern District of Pennsyl- vania was also represented. In the fall of 1921 the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas acted favorably on the application and sent the amended charter to the State Council of Education at Harrisburg. In the meantime Dr. Edgar Fahs Smith, former Provost Emeritus of the University of Pennsylvania, was ap- pointed by the State Council to pay an official visit to the college and to report his findings. Upon his recommendation the State Council of Education passed favorably on the amended charter, thus granting the college the privilege to confer the baccalaureate degrees. This action was taken December 19, 1921.
By increasing the material equipment of the college and by strengthening the faculty the college secured membership in the Association of American Colleges. On May 2, 1935, the Execu- tive Committee of the Association passed favorably on the appli- cation of Elizabethtown College for membership, and on January 17, 1936, the College was formally received into the Association of American Colleges.
Location
Elizabethtown College is located in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, a prosperous town of thirty-five hundred inhabitants in the north- ern part of fertile Lancaster County, aptly styled the “Garden Spot of the World.” The town is a busy, growing place. Within its borough limits are located eight or ten manufacturing concerns, all of which are prosperous industries. The main line of the Penn- sylvania Railroad, connecting New York and Chicago by the way of Lancaster and Philadelphia, passes through the town.
Elizabethtown has direct connection with Lancaster and Hershey ; by bus ; at the latter place connection is made with the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad, connecting Harrisburg and New York by the way of Reading. Furthermore, Elizabethtown is located on the concrete highway connecting the State Capital and Philadelphia through Lancaster. It is situated equidistant from four county seats, Harrisburg, Lancaster, York, and Leba- non. Auto bus lines connect Elizabethtown with the large cities in the eastern part of the United States.
The town is near the Conewago Hills. Its landscape is most charming, and its hills, on one of which the college is located, are beautiful. This beautiful, healthful location has attracted to this locality the widely-known Masonic Home, the Patton Schools, and the lately created Institution for Crippled Children.
The gorgeous sunsets on the western horizon will ever live in the memory of those who have attended Elizabethtown College. Several miles west of Elizabethtown flows the Susquehanna River — a lordly stream winding among verdant hills. All these natural beauties, together with the peaceful location of the college, afford unexcelled opportunities for study and research.

Admission
Application for Admission
The first step in securing admission to Elizabethtown College is the filing of a formal application by the prospective student. These application blanks may be secured by addressing the college. A student coming from another institution must present a certificate of good standing and of honorable dismissal.
Method of Admission
Students from high schools, academies, and normal schools ap- proved by the faculty, or from other colleges, and candidates who have passed the examinations of the College Entrance Examina- tion Board of the Middle States and Maryland are admitted on certificate.
The college furnishes a blank for this purpose ; no diploma is sent. School principals, after filling out these blanks, should for- ward them to the Dean of the college.
Students are permitted to matriculate for a degree with two units of condition, but under no circumstances will the college accept less than a complete four-year high school course for its equivalent as the basis for admission. Such candidates must re- move all conditions before the opening day of the next academic year.
Graduates of approved senior high schools who have previously completed the requirements of a standardized three-year course in a junior high school will be admitted on presentation of satisfac- tory evidence of having completed twelve units of senior high school work.
Students completing their high school course at midyear will be admitted at the opening of the second semester. By taking two summers' work, the courses of the first semester may be completed and the student graduate with those who entered in the fall semester.

Requirements for Admission
Only those applicants are admitted who are graduates of a first- class high school or who have an equivalent preparation. The sub- jects presented for admission fall into two groups: 1. Prescribed, including from eight to ten and one-half entrance units. 2. Elec- tive, four and one-half to seven entrance units ; total, fifteen Car- negie units. A unit represents the value of a year course given five periods a week for the entire year, each period being forty minutes in length or a total of 120 clock hours.
All students admitted to college will be examined in English composition on a day appointed soon after the opening of the term. Those found deficient in spelling, punctuation, or other essentials of good usage will be obliged to take special work in this subject at their own expense.
