SELF HELP

A large proportion of the men of the institution are self­supporting. Akron offers a great variety ot work for meri

Page 36: Thve M UDIClp · · I University of Akron · Thve M UDIClp· · ·a I University of Akron ./llr.ron, Ohio fipril,/9~ ANNUAL CATAlOG 1920

UNIVERSITY OF AKRON 35

students, such as clerking, soliciting; waiting on table, play­ing in orchestras, etc. The University maintains a Bureau of Student Employment which helps new students in get­ting work for odd hours, evenings and on Saturdays. The demand for such student aid on the part of Akron citizens is usually larger tha;n .he University can supply.

· No student, however, should enter without sufficient money for payment ~f term bills and for living expenses for several months, since too much outside work often seri,. ously hampers the beginning of a college course.

The opportunity for women in the matter of self help is more limited. It consists largely of work during certain hours of the day in private families in return for board and room, clerking and, to a limited extent, work in offices or libraries.

The University offers a number of student assistantships in various departments to upper classmen. Such positions pay from $50 to $150'per year. All inquiries regarding self help for men should be addressed to the Bureau of Student Aid; f<?r women, to ~e Dean of Women.

MODERN LANGUAGES

PROFESSOR BULGER

ASSISTANT-PROFESSOR REED

MR. TULLER

DR. KOLBE

It is the aim to mit.ke the foreign torigue the language of the class-room. An effort is made to reduce the amount of · English. used to a minimum. For the advanced courses all lectures and reports are in the foreign language. The in­tention is to accustom the student to using the language and hearing it used by others. Idiomatic and technical accuracy in the use of language, and, above all, care in pronunciation are insisted upon. Prose composition takes the form of free reprodUction of foreign texts rather than of translation.

Major. in German fZnd Fr~nch. German and French may be combmed to makt a maJor. Twenty hours of work in each language are re,uired for this major.

PHYSicAL EDUCATION

MR. SEFTON, DIREj:TOR

Aims: Physical edpcation is conducted under the di!ect supervision of an experienced physieal director, who 1s a member of the college"faculty. _

The aims of the depJ1rtment are to develop organic power, the basis of vitality, the prerequisite to physical and mental efficiency; to secure and maintain good posture, a harmoni­ous muscular development, and a certain degree of bodily skill and grace. '

A thoro physical examination is given, and measurements taken of all students: on entering and also on leaving the University. Physical defects, abnormalities, and weaknesses are noted, and judiqous, healthful exercise is prescribed to fit the student's individual needs; this may include athletic sports or remedial gymnastics.

College students of the three upper classes desiring to specialize as coaches c>r instructors in certain sports, games, or events, may do sq by conferring with the physicaldi· ·rector. :

All sophomores are required to take the course in Hygiene given by Dr. Plowmajll the first semester, one hour a week ..

Equipment: The ig1mnasium is one hundred feet in length and fifty feeti m width. On the ground floor are locker. rooms and bath rooms. Above is the practice floor where exercises are (:onduded. DireCtly over the practice floor is the running t*ck. The main floor of the gymnasium (80 feet by 50 feet) is well equipped with modem gym~ nastic apparatus. :

A four-acre athletk field is provided for the use of the men students, and all intercollegiate and other gantes and meets are held there; The field is equipped with a grand­stand, dressing root4s, cinder running track, baseball dia­mond, and football [field with bleachers to accommodate 4000 spectators. :

Control: The int~rcollegiate sports are under the gov­ernment of the OhiO: Athletic, Conference, the faculty com­mittee, appointed by ithe President, and a Board of Control, consisting of membets from the faculty and representatives of the student body tlected by the students.·

A limited number of intercollegiate games is scheduled subject to the approva~ of the faculty.

Awards: TheAthletic Association is honored by the gift of the Medal presented by Mr. Frank Talbot Fisher, of New York, and also by his very generous donatiqn of prizes for the Track Meet. They consist of two cups of the value of $50 each and a· Medal, and are given under the following conditions :

Jfhe Individual Cup is to be awarded to the athlete mak­ing the greatest ·number of points in the Track Meet, and must be won by him three years in successiQn in order to become his permanent property. · The ·aass Cup. is the permanent property of the Athletic

Association and is to be competed for by classes each year. An honorary po<;ition upon the cup is awarded the name of the class scoring the greatest number of points in each an­nual Track Meet.

RESERVE OFFICERS' TRAINING CORPS

Combined Mili#ary and Physical Training Course

69

Early in 1919 the United States Government established at the University of Akron a unit of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps. R~lar army officers are in charge. The work is divided into; two parts : the basic course of the first two years, compulsbry for all freshman and sophomore men who are physic~lly fit; and the advanced course of the last two years, elective for the men who have finished the basic course satisfa¢torily.

The Basic Course. All freshman men not physically disqualified must take

this cour.se, unless they have been in the federal service more than one year. The work is given three hours per

.week fot the first two years (three years for Engineers)-.· In addition, they: are required to take two hours' physical training each week ·under the supervision of the physical director.

During this course no compensation is paid the student b-y the War Department, but uniform and equipment are issued for his use. Each student is held responsible . for .loss or damage to government property issued to him. After the student has worn bis uniform a full academic year, it is turned in to the department of military science and tactics,

. and he is given a new uniform to replace the one turned in. The work of the basic course consists chiefly of training

in close and extended order drill, familiarity with arms and their proper care, familiarity with the organization of the Army, military courtesy, map problems, small problems for infantry, first aid, personal hygiene, camp sanitation, gallery practice, range pract~e, ceremonies, inspections, and reviews.

The Advanced Course. This course consists of five hours per week during the

junior and senior years. It is open to all students who have satis.factorily completed the basic course, provided they have been elected bythe President of the University and the Professor of Military Science and Tactics. During this

•• <;ourse the Government not only furnishes uniform and equipment, but also . allows commutation of subsistence, which varies from time to time, at present being $16.50 per month. Attendance at one summer camp of not more than six weeks' duration is required. On the satisfactory com-

,pletion of the advanced course; the student is commissioned in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps as a Secon.9 Lieu­tenant. Promotions are made as in the Regular Army. ·

During the first year the a4vanced course consists chief­ly of : c:atnP sanitation, minor tactics, map problems, map s:e4ding, elements of common law, use of automatic rifle and special weapons of the infantry, acting as instructors and coaches, military policy of the United States, field engineer-

. ing, bridge construction, demolitions and explosives, the tele­. phone and telegraph, foreign maps, field l}rders, lamp sig­naUing, ground wireless telegraphy. During the second year the work includes: company offic~rs, musketry, military

. correspondence, rules of l;md warfare, reports, hippology, •. 'transportation of animals, comp<!.ny administration, courts

~ Jijar:t.jal, fire control, conduct of officers, handling Ofgovern-merttjltoperty, international law, management of the Amer­ican sOtdi~r, military history of the United· States, map prob­le~p.s, . .,..combat and minor tactics, guard duty,· fire discipline, ~ sket<;Ms; the battles of St. Mihiel, the Meuse, and the

· ::~ne; messages aJld topograp'hy. . . ··~··· It has been the policy to give onl~ a limited amount of

.:~order drill; to take ·up in an ·int~ng and· insttttetive . .*Mtmer the real· duties of. an officer ahd the things that he

should know. As the work progresses it pows mare and 'li\Of'einteresting·and instructive. The stud~t$ attending the University are indeed fortUnate to have such a~ wide and advanced course open to them. "lt is the duty of every real .American to know and cultivat.e the relation that exists be­tween the civilian and the armed f6rces of the United States. No better opportunity. exists for the education and training of the. educated men in our country, either for those who will later serve as officers in times of peril, or for those who wilt serve as legislators.

COLLE¢E OF ENGINEERING

FRJ, E. AYER., c. E., DEAN

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Directors of ~the Municipal University of Akron, es~ tablished the Colle~te of Engineering in 1914 .and adopted the five-year co-ope:rative course, patterned after the "Cin"' cinnati Plan." f

The "Cincinnati Plan" aims to give the stqdent a thoro training in both th~ theory and practice of engineering by ·requiring the pract~e to be learned under actual conun.er.;; cial conditions in local industrial organizations and the underlying science ito be studied in the University under trained educators. f To accomplish this the students are grouped in two sections, one of. which is at work and the

'other in attendanc~ at the University. For example, A, .. • who is in section otie, attends classes at the University for two. weeks w.hile Bf• who is paired with A and . \¥ho is in section two, IS .at ~ork. Then they cha~ge P!~ces and-~· -~ attends the Umver~ty for two weeks whtle A ts at work; . Of ;~purse this nece~itates the giving of· all UnivetsitY. woFk twic'i, once for eac~ section. •

Five years of el~\ren months . each are required to com­plete the course, each student being allowed a vacation . of one week at Christmas time, one week at Easter C>r during commencement week, and two weeks in the latter part of the summer.

Candidates for ._dmission are expected to spend . the summer preceding ~heir entrance at continuous work on a job pr~Wided bj the University. This probationary period affords the student an· opportunity to test his fitness and liking for the ~ourse and demonstrates· his ability to satisfy his employer.

In order to operate a co-operative course in engineering, tlie Engineering College must be loeated in or near an in-

·~· :dustrial center· and while, there are over six hundred col-1ege5 and· universities in the United States, yet compara,. tivel-y iew of them are so located that such a course is prac­-~b~ . A!tron is essentially a manufacturing ·center,.and the. }'resident atid Directors of the Municipal University

_ (;)f .·Akron selected this type of· engineering education as ~~ the 1atest ~d the one best adapted to the city's needs, therefore- no other courses in engineering will be offered.

SEQUENCE OF COURSES

. c ,'the _profession of engineering can be divided into two pirt:S.,.;Ilrt and science.. Engineering art includes that part of the work which requires manual as well as mental train­ing 3fld js taught by means of practice work in commercial industries, irt drawing, surveying and different engineering

--: ·-laboratory courses. Engineering science includes all theory ·', - under1ying good engineering practice, a few examples of

·:- which are mathematics. ch~mistry, physics, strength of ma-terials. and applied mechanics. . c The cur-ricUlum is so arranged that the .engineering stu­dent_ starts his colle~ work with training in eugineering artand·progr~sses to the study of et\gineering ~ee;_ He is thu~? e.Jtabled·to _apprriach: his-Jhe()r~cat subjects with a,

His pay will be at the rate of $75!per month fqr actual time worked an.d the length of the course will be four years of eleven months each. A student accepted for a scholarship will be selected by the Dean of the College of Engineering, and the selection must be approved by :the firm granting the scholarship, The object of the companies in offering this inducement is to

· attract a few of thd most desirable high school graduates each year, and train these men in the practical work of their own organization while the University is giving them a broad college trainiqg. Akron students who meet the re­quirements of these scholarships will be given preferettce over non-residents. : The University course includes the · essentials in Engineering and Business Training, together with the usual liberal: arts subjects required in these courses. Applicants for Manufacturing Production scholarships should weigh at least 140, and preferably, 150 lbs. · •

There are no scholarships in the Engineering Courses. The firms providing these scholarships are : The Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. The B. F. Goodrich Co.

:SHOP WORK

The Dean of the: College of Engineering and the em­ployer so plan the 'fOrk that the student gets a carefully grade? training b~hnin~ with work :equi_ring no skilt or expenence and ending w1th actual engmeenng work.

The shop w()rk and the University work are co-ordinated · hy technically traine4 men experienced in engineering prac­tice. Thruout the five years of University work they will give courses whose ~im is twofold. First, they supplement the outside training by explaining the different operations, the sequence of wotk, the technicalities of the machines, and, in shqrt, any part of the work which the student does not understand, and which the foreman has not· time to explain. This show!; the student the vast educational op-:­portunities open to qim in his outside. work and makes him more useful to his etN>loyer. Secondly, these cout:_Ses cover.

GENERAL INFORMATION The Curtis School of Home Economics was established.

as a unit of· the Municipal University in 1914. It occupies the building knowi\ as Curtis Cottage, made possible by gifts from thelate William Pitt Curtis, of Wadsworth, Ohio, .. and from many cit~ens of Akron. Besides the necessary · laboratories for work in Home Economics, the building has a cafeteria.

Admission Candidates for unconditional admission must present at·

least 15 units of se~ondary school work. No student will be admitted with qttrance conditions amounting to more than one unit. Sucli deficiency must be made up during the freshman year. F()r general entrance requirements to the University see page 23. .

than a full unit in the beginning of any language will be· accepted toward this requirement.

t A year of Phy~cs at entrance or in the University is required for a degree.

Course of Study . The course in Home Economics requires four years of

regular university work and is planned to meet the practical' needs of women students. It combines a thoro training in those branches of science essential to intelligent home management with the broadest possible cultural education and forms a basis for those who wish to specialize in Home Economics or other lines of work. Especial attention will be given to providing training for those who may wish to ~come teachers of the subject.· Besides the major in gen• eral home economics, a major in bacteriology may be chosen at the beginning of the junior year.

112 COMBINATION COURSES

COMBINATION COURSES No student will be recommended for a combination course with

any other institution unless his average grade for his three years' work in the University of Akron is at least S5%.

1. AT THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON The Arts-Home Economics Combination Course

. A combination may be made between the Arts and Home Economics courses' by which degrees may be obtained· from .· both schools in a minimum period of five years. This may best be a€complished by spending four years in the Curtis. School of Home Ec::onomics and an . additional year in the College of Liberal Arts. If such combination course be desired the elective work in the fourth year must be shaped toward the fulfillment of the major and minor requirements in the College ~f Liberal Arts. , · ·

An arrangement is also possible by which the student may spend three y~rs in the College of Liberal Arts and two years in the Curtis School of ;Home Economics, receiv­ing both degrees. Those planning this .combination should consulttbe Oassification Committee at the beginning of thf! sophomore year in order that the subjects to be taken may_ be definitely determined, according to the major subject chosen.

2. WITH THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY By special arrange:ment concluded with tlie Ohio State

University, the University of Akron is enabled to offer • · eombination courses in its own College of Liberal Arts with certain professional schools of the State University. By means of such a course, the studen~ is enabled to shorten by one year the six to eight year period otherwise necessary for the acquirement of both college and professional degrees and training. Generally speaking, the plan contempl&.tes ·an· attendance of three years at the University of Akron with ~n additional two or three years (depending on the ~ubject chosen) at the State University. During the fourth year of his course ( i. e., the first year at the State University) the student is counted as a senior in absentia by the University. of Akron and at the end of this year returns to receive h.is Bachelor's de~ree with his class; •..

The followmg combinations have been arranged:

Any student who has been in residence at the University of Akron for at least three years, and who has made an average grade of 85 90 in at least · 96 hours in the regular course in Buchtel C:Ollege, with major in Biology, may re­ceive the degree of B. S. from the University of Akton upon the satisfactory completion of the course in any first­grade training school for nurses.

By this arrangement it is made possible for the candidate to secure both the college degree and the Nurse's Certificat_e'·· in six years. ·

Such an arrangenl.ent has been definitely entered into with Lakeside Hospital Training School for Nurses, Oeveland.

With Medical Schools The University of Akron will enter into combination

courses with any· bf the medical schools of the highest class, as fixed by-the standards of the American Medical Association.

~;: With Other Professional and with Technical Schools -ii' .· The University of Akron is willing to give the oppor­~ tunity for combination courses with any approved technical ·:~;or professional sch9<>l making graduation from a first-grade ·

high school a prerequisite for entrance (except medical schools, see above). The approval of such courses·· tests

· •with the committee on classification. In making such com­binations, the University of Akron will insist on the fulfill­ment of the general requirements of three years' residence at Akron, the comJ.)letion of 96 term hours there and of a

: total of 128 ter.m hours for graduation-also of the com-pletion of all required majors and minors. .

_ · . Students are watned against haphazard work in Buchtel College of Uberal :Arts witb the vague idea that a course · chosen at random t:an be combined with any professional­

: sChool to which their inclination may later direct them. The - choice of school ivith which the combination is desired

· should never be delayed beyond the close of the freshman . ·year; The committee oil classification is at all times ready

to be of assistance to students in making combinations with reputable professional and technical schools. ·

COMMUNITY CO-OPERATION }- ~

The work in community co-operation has been undertaken for the purpose of bringing the University in all its depart:. ments into close touch with the activities of the city of · Akron. The Directors of the University feel that an institu­tion of higher learning, supported in large part by municipal taxation, should give freely to the city all possible practical aid by means of its instructors and equipment. . While the work of community co.,operation is not primar;­

ily organized for the purpose of teaching, yet one of. tts im- · porta:nt objects is to bring students into eontaet with tile work of the city and to train them along variotis lines· ()l practical usefulness to the community. Whenever possibh~t the actual problems of civic lifeand administration.are sub­stituted in the various courses for purely theoretica:J work, since the University considers this training .as one of the most important branches of its activity.

DIVISIONS OF CO-OPERATIVE WORK The·work properly falls under two heads. I. Special organizations or Bureaus.

II. Co-operative work by various departments of the University.

I. SPECIAL ORGANIZATIONS The Bureduof City Tests

A. E. HARDGROVE, B. S., DIRECTOR.

In accordance with. a proposal made by the Directors of · the University and· accepted. by the Akron City Council, the

University assumes entire charge of the chemical and phy., sical testing work of the city. The Bureau of City Tests was created and took charge of this work January 1, 1914. All analytfcal and diagnostic work of the city was done by A

·the Bureau until November, 1916, when a diagnostic bac­teriological laboratory was created. at the Board of. Health office; and assumed this work. The Burea~ continues to do bacteriological milk· and water analysis, and all other physical and chemical tests for the various city departments, together with brick testing for Summit County~

The Director of the Bureau of City Tests has charge of the laboratory control of Akron's se.:wage disposal plant.
