This course consists of the ordinary Grammar-School branches and the studies of the first two years of the Higher Normal Course.

jSTo examination for admission is required, but pupils will be classed according to their attainments.

This course is formed to meet the immediate demand for teachers throughout the State. A certificate of graduation will be given to those who complete this course.

Written examinations are required in the studies of all the courses, except the Normal, at the close of the Fall .and Winter Terms, and oral examinations in the studies of all the courses, annually, during the three days next preceding Commence­ ment ; also ivritten examinations are required frequently in Common English branches from all students above the Normal Course.

In addition to the prescribed studies, young women in the Higher Norma? Course are taught "Household Science," embracing Plain Sewing, Cookery, Nursing the sick, etc.

This instruction is given both by familiar lectures and by practice in those arfe. Specimens of their sewing are to be preserved for examination.

Rhetorical exercises and weekly Bible lessons are required throughout all the courses.

Membership.For membership in the Institution a person must have a good moral

character, and must sign a pledge to abstain from the use of all intoxi­ cating drinks and tobacco in every form, while a member of the school.

Pupils from other schools must present certificates of honorable dis­ mission.

Applications for admission should be made at least a month before the beginning of the school year.

Pupils should enter the first day of a school year that they may be immediately classified, and thus lose no time. Students lose their mem­ bership when absent one month. During vacation, as well as during term time, students are held amenable to the authority of the school.

22 Atlanta University.

Those who have not a fixed purpose to improve their time, and an earnest desire to flt themselves for usefulness, should not seek admission, as the presence of such is not tolerated.

The Institution is not sectarian in its religious instruction or influ­ ence, while aiming to be thoroughly Christian. It is open to all students of either sex.

It is desired to make the school, as far as possible, a home for those who attend. Not only their intellectual, but also their social, moral and religious culture, receive careful attention.

Student Aid.Several students have been aided during past years by the Peabody

Fund and contributions from the friends of popular education. It is ex­ pected this help will be continued.

The only permanent fund is the "Plainfield Scholarship" of three hundred dollars.

Persons should not come expecting to receive aid until they have ap­ plied for it, and received a favorable .answer. Those applying should state their pecuniary circumstances, their advancement in their studies, and, as far as possible, what pursuit they intend to follow.

It is expected that those who are aided will, when able, return the amount to aid others.

Music.Facilities for instruction in both Vocal and Instrumental Music are

ample. The elements of Vocal Music are taught from Dr. Mason's Music Charts, without extra charge.

For practice in Instrumental Music, there are four organs and two pianos. (See expenses )

Graves Library.By the liberality of the late R. K. Graves, Esq., of New York, and a

few other friends, the library'now contains nearly five thousand volumes Mr. Graves has also given a permanent endowment of five thousand dol lars, which secures its steady growth.

In connection with the Library is a Eeading Room, well' supplied with the leading papers and periodicals of the country, and to both the students have free access.

Atlanta University. 23

Apparatus.A good beginning has been made in procuring Philosophical Appa­

ratus. Enough has been obtained for illustrating some of the simpler principles of Natural Science, and also instruments for Surveying and Engineering purposes.

Some money has been contributed toward the purchase of a Telescope, and it is hoped that before long enough will he raised to procure a service­ able instrument.

Teaching.It is expected that a majority of the students will engage in teaching,

and instruction in all departments is adapted to that end. Earnest efforts are made to induce young men to prepare for the ministry.

Nearly all of those who are sufficiently advanced in scholarship aid themselves by teaching. The demand for teachers is usually in excess of the supply.

County Superintendents of Schools, and others desiring teachers from this Institution, will find it for their interest to arrange their schools, if possible, so as to include its summer vacation, viz., the months of July, August and September. Communications from all such officers will re­ ceive prompt attention.

Students of this Institution, desiring to teach, will be furnished cer­ tificates of membership and standing. As a means of protection against imposition, applicants for schools claiming to be from Atlanta University should be required to exhibit such certificates.

GovernmentDiscipline is administered with firmness and impartiality, and aims

to induce a high moral sentiment which shall be in itself a powerful gov­ erning force in the school.

Suspension from school is resorted to when other means of correction fail.

When students are exposing themselves to permanent harm, it is ex­ pected that high-minded individuals will be governed by the dictates of conscience and common-sense, rather than by any false sense of honor, in regard to disclosing the facts to the proper authority.

Wants.The school being without endowments, is dependent upon the Ameri­

can Missionary Association for all support not derived from other sources.Our needs are such as young Colleges have—endowments, scholar­

ships, reference books, maps, apparatus, etc.It is hoped that the time is not far distant when funds will flow into

the treasury of the Institution as freely as they do into colleges in other parts of the country.

All payments must be made in advance mi the first day of each month.All pupils are required to work for the Institution at least one hour

Miscellaneous.Each pupil should bring a Bible. It is needed for private reading,

for the Sunday-school, and for the weekly Bible lesson.It is well to bring the text books formerly used.All should be provided with warm clothing.Young women should have rubbers and waterproofs.Economy and good taste demand plain and simple clothing. Parents

are urged to co-operate with teachers in seeing that none other is worn. No extra dress is required for the close of school.

Letters should be directed to Atlanta University, Atlanta, Ga.Experience has taught that much evil comes from pupils receiving

food from home. They are, therefore, not allowed to receive it. Friends will please not send it.

Students who do not board at their homes are not allowed to board out of the Institution, except by special permission.

Boarders are expected to furnish their own towels.Keeping or using fire arms on the premises is forbidden.During term-time students shall not, without permission, actively

participate in any political or mass meeting.Students from a distance should arrange their journeys so as not to

arrive on the Sabbath, as they will not be admitted on that day. When going away, they should apply for dismission in season to arrive at home before the Sabbath.

Students are not allowed to make visits on the Sabbath, and their friends are earnestly requested not to call upon them on that day.

The Institution is the result of benevolent efforts, and that it be de­ cidedly religious in its influence, without being sectarian, is the reasonable expectation of its friends. Among the appropriate means for securing such results, the Sabbath, with its religious services, is the most important. The exckement of visiting.friends prevents, in a great measure, the bene­ fit that may be derived from a proper observance of the day.

History.In October, 1867, a Board,of Trustees was formed, and a charter, ob­

tained. Money was secured and a site of about fifty acres, on high ground, in the western part of the city, was purchased. In June, 1869, the corner­ stone of the first building was laid. During the summer the building was erected, and in October was occupied by the school It is a plain, four- storied, brick building, containing sleeping-rooms for about forty pupils, and also a parlor, dining-room, kitchen, etc. It was designed for a girls' domitory, but during the first year, furnished all accommodations, both school and boarding, for the entire school. It was much crowded, and the inconvenience of the arrangement was very great. In August of 1870, another building of the same style, but larger, containing sleeping-rooms for about sixty boys, besides temporary sleeping-rooms, was completed. In the summer of 1871 this building was enlarged by a wing, providing, rooms for about forty pupils, and other school-rooms. This entire build­ ing is now heated by steam. The trustees hold about sixty acres of land and the above described buildings. There has been a pressing need of an addition to the North Hall, and a central building containing chapel, library, laboratory, recitation, and lecture rooms. It is expected that the gift of fifty thousand dollars from the " Stone Estate," Maiden, Mass., will soon furnish these buildings. A donation of $10,000, from the estate of B. E. Graves, the founder of the "Graves Library," has been received during the year.

The Legislature of Georgia, in 1870, appropriated to this school $8,000- The same amount was received in 1871 and in 1873. In 1874 a bill was almost unanimously passed making an annual appropriation of $8,000- This bill was entitled "An act equitably to adjust the claims of the colored people to a share of the Agricultural Land Scrip." Itmade the appropri­ ation on condition that the Board of Visitors of the University of Georgia should also visit this school; that the money should not be paid by the Governor till a commission of three members of the Faculty of the Uni­ versity of Georgia had approved the plan of the Trustees for the expendi­ ture of the money, and that the school should educate, free of charge for tuition, one pupil for every member of the House of Eepresentatives, to be nominated by the members. By the recommendation of Hon. G. J. Orr, State School Commissioner, the trustees of the Peabody Fund appro­ priated, for the present year, $1,000 for Normal Scholarships.

Nearly all the graduates, and many others who have left before finish­ ing their course, are engaged in teaching during a part or all of the year. Besides these, during the three months of the summer vacation a large number of students engage in teaching, and it is estimated that over ten thousand children in Georgia are taught, annually, by those who have been connected with this institution.

Report of the State Board of Examiners.To the Board of Visitors:

•GENTLEMEN—The undersigned, your appointees, herewith submit the following report upon the final examination of the Atlanta University, for the school year just closed.

The Board attended these examinations in an almost entire body. They were promptly atd courteously met by President Ware and hie asso­ ciates, and the examinations proceeded with systematic regularity. The exercises were designated by neatly printed programmes, with the time. and place of recitation distinctly set forth.

The examinations were fairly conducted and disclosed the fact that the most advanced methods of teaching were employed. These methods were mainly topical, supplemented by appropriate questions, which evinced that the students had an intelligent comprehension of the subjects under consideration. We were especially impressed by fhe evidences of patient, systematic, untiring training on the part of the teachers, so well adapted to the colored, or any race, and by the progressive manner in which a subject was developed. All branches taught, passed in review before us, and whether the immediate subject was reading, grammar, history, mathe­ matics, the classics, or other branches, the means employed and the results attained were entirely satisfactory. The examinations were entirely oral and the decorum and order maintained were of a high character.

The cleanliness of the recitation rooms, the preservation-of school property and the gradual improvement of the grounds were marked.

The final exercises at Friendship church were very creditable to the institution. The subjects of the speeches and essays were appropriate, without political bearing, and they were delivered and read in a becoming manner.

Comparing the examinations with preceding ones, we are satisfied that the University is steadily on the .up grade, and that it is becoming a center of great interest among the colored people.

The religious training of the pupils appeared to be excellent.The Normal feature of the institution we regard with especial interest.

In no way can education be so rapidly extended, or its improved methods be effectually multiplied, as by the special training of teachers. This we believe to be the great educational want of our State.

We have one suggestion to make, viz.: as the oral recitation has been now so satisfactorily developed, would it not be beneficial to introduce some written examination work in the higher classes, as affording a better comparative test, and as advancing the examinations fully up to the modern standard ?

In closing, your committee would state that they were much gratified to learn through the President that Uie future of the institution is very flattering. Two bequests amounting to $00,000 havo lately been made to

it, and it is proposed at an early day to erect a new building on an im­ proved plan, between the present edifices, to enlarge the dormitories for girls and to provide a dining-room capable of seating 300 persons.

It ia your committee's opinion, based upon the foregoing, that the State has acted wisely in her appropriation to the Atlanta University, and that a continuance of it is to her best interests.

Respectfully submitted. H. C. MITCHELL,Chairman Special Committee
