WeStern Maryland College> 

AMERICA PROVIDES many excellent colleges for young 

c.__/1 people seeking higher education. An applicant should 

make certain that the college his choice is of good 

of 

and has ideals and objectives with which he is in accord. 

standing 

Western Maryland College is a liberal arts institution, 

accredited the Middle States Association of Colleges and 

by 

Secondary Schools and by the University Senate of the Methodist 

Church. II holds membership in the National Association of 

Schools Music and has the approval of that Association a 

of for 

Bachelor of Arts degree in applied music. It is on the approved 

list of the American Association of University Women. The 

College is coeducational, the first institution south of the Mason 

and Dixon Line co open its doors to both young men and young 

women. A limited enrollment, with a ratio of one instructor for 

every twelve students, makes possible a close relationship between 

students and faculty and among the students themselves. Members 

of the faculty are chosen not only for their scholarship, but 

for their character, their ability to teach, and their willingness 

to counsel with students. 

As a liberal arts college it aims to produce men and women 

having leadership qualities and conscious of the individual's 

responsibility for personal development and social advancement. 

At the same time it provides courses professional training for in 

stated areas as well as pre· professional training for those who 

plan continue their education in the various specialized fields. 

to 

One of the distinctive features of the school is its emphasis 

character development. The College was chartered in 

upon 

1868 under the auspices of the former Methodist Protestant 

Church and is now one of the church-related colleges of the 

Methodist Church. While it is open to students of all faiths and 

makes no religious tests any, it gives ample opportunity for 

of 

moral and religious development. It urges all students to attend 

church on Sunday (Methodist, Lutheran, Episcopal, Catholic. 

Reformed, Church of the Brethren, Church of God, Church 

and 

of the Nazarene congregations are to be found in Westminster) 

and requires attendance each Sunday evening ar tbe College 

Chapel Service. The students govern themselves by their own 

elected representatives who are assisted by faculty advisers. The 

College assumes that persons enrolling will respect the tradition 

[ 9 J


of the school which prohibits the possession or use of alcoholic 

beverages on the campus or being under the influence of them at 

any time. 

A Handbook of Western Maryland College is publishe.d e~ch 

and is presented to each incoming student. This pubhcatlon 

year 

contains the various regulations of the College as well as o~er 

interesting information. Ignorance of the rules and regulanons 

cannot be construed as basis for their evasion. 

Persons enrolling at the College are required to live in the 

dormitories unless residing with parents or immediate relatives. 

This provides a more unified campus community and makes pos· 

sible an environment where education is not pursued in isolation 

but in those natural relationships which typify the democratic 

atmosphere of American life. 

Western Maryland College is ideally located on a onehundred-acre 

campus the west end of Westminster, Maryland, 

at 

amid the intimate beauty of Carroll County's rolling hills. At 

the same time it close to the cultural advantages offered by the 

is 

City of Baltimore (twenty-eight miles distant) and the Nation's 

Capital (fifty·eight miles distant) .

material con tamed rn this catalogue and that they write to the 

College for any additional information which they may desire.

[11 J

WeStern Maryland College and 

Preparation for a Career 

Like most of America's distinguished undergraduate institutions, 

Western Maryland a liberal arts college. This means 

is 

that students do not receive direct training to become bond salesmen, 

secretaries, and the like. Rather the liberal arts college 

prepares its students for leadership-in business, in the professions, 

in the military service, in scientific work, in social and 

humanitarian 

activity. 

The graduate of the liberal arts college should have a high 

of aesthetic and spiritual values, aroused and active social 

sense 

awareness, above all a well-stocked and well-disciplined mind. He 

is able after college to succeed in activity which requires not 

merely technical proficiency hut perception and judgment, refinement 

and social ease, discrimination and taste. He can do more 

~~va;!~~f ~orld. carry out, and often direct, the construe- 

~;~~~ 

Education of this calibre can be assimilated by a high school 

graduate of better than average mental promise or by a graduate 

of less pronounced intellectual distinction who has extraordinary 

determination and self-discipline. Certain career choices, however, 

require special abilities, and the material which follows is 

intended to make clear some of these requirements as well as 

to suggest a few of the principal fields open to graduates of 

liberal arts colleges. 

THE PROFESSIONS 

THE MINISTRY. In addition to the prime requisite of complete 

devotion to cause, this calling requires skill and ease in 

a 

writing and speaking, capacity to absorb general and philosophical 

concepts, interest in varied subject matter, sympathy with 

people. A good voice and physiq~e li!e undeniably advantageous. 

Preministerial students may major In any department, but the 

most commonly chosen are Philosophy and Religion, English, 

History, and Sociology. Every year graduates of Western Maryland 

enter such seminaries as Boston, Drew, Duke, and Westminster, 

the eastern theological school.s of. the Methodist church, 

as well as seminaries of other denommatlons. The relationship 

of the college to the church and the active religious life on the 

campus give strong preparation to preministerial students. 

[12 ]

1956 Introduction 

MEDICINE.The medical student must have decided ability 

in the sciencesand a real liking for laboratory work. In addition 

to minimal requirements in undergraduate science, however, 

medical schools give preference to students with good training 

in the humanities, social studies, and philosophy. At Western 

Maryland a student without the special abilities for medicine is 

guided toward other objectives suited to his talents, thus avoiding 

waste of much time and money. Though it is theoretically 

possible to enter medical school after three years of college, competition 

for admission is so keen that only exceptional students 

should plan on thus shortening their training. For many years 

every premedical graduate fully recommended by the Western 

Maryland Faculty has been accepted by a medical school. Without 

exception these graduates have been successfulas students in 

medical school and as doctors after completing their training. 

TEACHlNG.The teacher should have genuine intellectual 

interest and distinction, a concern for books and people, extraordinary 

patience and sympathy with young people. Prospective 

teachers can of course specialize in any subject and prepare for 

any level of professional service. Though western Maryland 

has an enviable record in the state for the preparation of junior 

and senior high school teachers, graduates also enter the fields of 

elementary and college teaching. At the present time, for instance, 

three Maryland college presidents (and several out-ofstate), 

as well as numerous members of college faculties, took 

their undergraduate training at western Maryland. In addition 

to training in the standard academic subjects, the college offers 

special preparation for teachers of Art, Home Economics, Music, 

and Physical Education. Enough courses in Library Science are 

included in the curriculum for the student to qualify for the 

Teacher-Librarian certificate. 

THE LAW. It is possible to enter law school after majoring 

in any department, though Economics, History, Political Science. 

and English are the preferred s_fJccializations.Law schools request 

wide election of courses III many fields, stressing good 

scholarship, ability to think and write, skill in understanding 

people, as well as knowledge of the Constitution, American history, 

and the various economic and legislative patterns. Approved 

law schools have recently raised their requirements from two to 

three years of college, and all but the finest students must have 

a college degree to enter a good law school. Western Maryland 

[13]


graduates have attended most of the well-known law schools in 

the East, with the greatest number going to the University of 

Maryland and the schools in the District of Columbia. 

BUSINESS 

The most natural subject for specialization is of course Economics, 

though many graduates enter business after majoring in 

such fields as History, Political Science, and English. It should 

be emphasized that most corporations have their own training 

courses for junior executives and prefer broad education rather 

than highly specialized "job preparation"; thus specific training 

is usually furnished by the employer, after the graduate is on the 

job. Business executives expect college graduates to have wide 

interests and information, to be able to express themselvesclearly, 

to deal successfullywith all kinds of people, to understand the 

theory and practice of the American system. Western Maryland's 

liberal arts curriculum, enriched by the social experience of 

campus life, meets these requirements admirably and provides 

an ideal background for entrance into the world of business. 

or course, many graduates in such special fields as the sciences, 

mathematics, and home economics find positions employing 

their particular training in business enterprise. 

The woman who supplements a liberal arts education with 

a brief secretarial course at a business school possessesa rremendeus 

advantage in the world of competitive business. 

SCIENCE 

ENGINEERING. In recent years engineering schools have become 

dissatisfied with the training of their graduates who have 

come directly from high school to the technical complexities of 

the engineering departments. Several plans have been worked 

out for students to take a portion of their training at a liberal 

arts college, thus securing the breadth and the cultural benefits 

of such education, and then transfer to the technical school for 

specialization. Students who follow this plan spend three years 

at college followed by two yea~sat .engineering school; they.re· 

ceive both the A.B. and the engineering degree at the completion 

of the fifth year. Western Maryland College has adopted such a 

cooperative program with Johns Hopkins University and with 

the University of Maryland, whereby students who have successfully 

completed a prescribed curriculum through the junior 

year at Western Maryland will be accepted in third-year engineer- 

[ 14 1


ing by Johns Hopkins or the University of Maryland. To enter 

engineering, students should have exceptional ability in mathematics 

and quick comprehension of scientific material in generaL 

FORESTR". This is a new vocational opportunity for young 

men who like an outdoor life and have outstanding ability in 

botany. As in medicine, law. business, and engineering, schools 

of forestry desire broadly educated people; they have therefore 

sought arrangements with liberal arts colleges. Western Maryland 

is one of a number of schools which offer the pre-professional 

training in forestry {or Duke University. After three years 

at Western Maryland and two years in the Duke School of FOI"- 

estry, the student receives the A.B. and the master's degree in 

forestry. 

INDUSTRY and GOVERNMENT SERVICE. ]11 the laboratories of 

both private industry and the government, innumerable positions 

of highly varied requirements are constantly open LO the 

graduate who has been trained in physical or biological science. 

Advancement in such positions often comes in consequence of 

the qualities developed by the non-scientific side of college education, 

so that the liberal arts graduate has in the long run a 

clear advantage over graduates of purely technical programs. 

Many Western Maryland gr::ldllates in Biology. Chemistry. 

Mathematics, Physics, and Home Economics hold distinguished 

positions in these fields. 

NURSING. Nursing requires women of intelligence and integrity, 

whose interest is in people. In addition good physical 

stamina and emotional stability are needed. A college degree is 

increasingly in demand in nursing, especially {or supervisory 

positions. The student is required to spend two or more years 

in college before entering nursing school. Those who desire a 

B.S. in nursing may take a prescribed course for two years or 

more at Western Maryland and then transfer to a hospital connected 

with a university which offers the B.S. in nursing. For 

example, students have transferred to Johns Hopkins Hospital 

and received the degree from Johns Hopkins University. In most 

hospitals students who follow this program may have the period 

of attendance in nursing school shortened by several months. 

Capable s£l!dents who are amitious to secure the adv~nt~ges in 

nursing gamed by those holding a college degree are invited to 

write to the Biology Department. Western Maryland College, for 

detailed information on the combined curriculum.

THE ARMED FORCES 

As every able-bodied male citizen must eventually serve in 

the armed forces, it seems advisable to train men for positions as 

officers. western Maryland has had for more than thirty years 

an ROTC unit which has always held top rating and which has 

contributed many effective officers in the long national emergency 

since 1941. The unit is at present classified as "Branch 

General," which allows those who graduate with commissionsas 

reserve officersto serve in a branch of the army appropriate to 

their special training. Students selected for the advanced course 

are deferred while in college. Though a number of graduates 

have chosen a career in the army, the program allows the student 

to qualify for his academic objective and at the same time secure 

a commissionas a reserveofficer. 

SOClAL WORK 

For some years Western Maryland has furnished a number 

of workers in the field of social therapy and rehabilitation. Such 

workers must be interested in people, have sympathy for the 

unfortunate, be willing to face disturbing conditions without 

distaste. Social workers most frequently major in Sociology,but 

some have specialized in English or Psychology. Many Western 

Maryland students are employed by social agencies immediately 

after graduation, but those who seek professional recognition 

in this area should plan to do graduate work at one of the approved 

schools of social work. Such graduate study is often subsidized 

by a public agency. which at the same time gives the 

student part-time employment. 

The new field of church secretarial work requires similar 

training and qualifications. Prominent among personal characteristics 

for such positions are the refinement a.nd cultural 

attainments imparted by a liberal arts college, particularly one 

related to the church. 

GRADUATE 

STUDY 

The best place to secure preparation for graduate work is 

the liberal arts college. Graduates of Western Maryland have 

gone to most of the great universities in all fields. A considerable 

number have secured doctoral degrees. Many have studied, 

both in this country and abroad, on scholarships awarded on the 

basis of their achievement at Western Maryland. Though the 

[ 16 I


majority teaching, a 

of tbose securing advanced degrees go into 

surprising number enter business, journalism, industrial science, 

and other non-pedagogical occupauons. 

OTHER 

VOCATIONS 

It is manifestly impossible to include all the occupations 

which graduates of liberal arts colleges enter. Two as yet trnmentioned 

are journalism and the diplomatic service, which are 

popular with college graduates and for which no other training 

is as good. For certain other occupations, the requirements and 

advantages may be inferred tram what been said previously 

has 

about similar fields; for instance, much that appears under the 

heading "Medicine" is also true of dentistry and veterinary medicine. 

In some instances such as the field of professional music, 

success depends so much on natural talent that no general advice 

can substitute for a personal interview. 

The College edits each year and distributes to every new 

student guidance bulletin, enumerating approximately sixty 

a 

academic objectives which may be fulfilled Western Maryland; 

at 

each objective is described in terms of the courses which should 

be taken in the major and in other departments. Other features 

of the advisory service for new students are described in this 

catalogue under "Admission." 

Prospective studeI-ts who desir~ infCrmation, eithe~' by mail 

in person, concerning the relationship between their chosen 

or 

career and the liberal arts education may communicate with the 

Registrar, Western Maryland College. Any such request will 

be referred to the proper staff member for response.

report, the placement tests, and the individual's objectives. 

The counselors are members of the faculty who have had 

special training or experience in advising students in regard to 

academic problems. Assignment of counselors is made largely on 

the basis of the student's academic objective. Normally the indio 

vidual retains the same adviser until the fourth semester, at which 

time a representative of the major department becomes his adviser; 

if the student expects to leach in high school, the Department 

of Education directs him in a program planned cooperatively 

with his major department. 

In many cases, the selection of a major department should 

be made prior to the fourth semester. A major in Music or in 

Home Economics, for instance, should be indicated at entrance, 

so that courses in these departments may be taken during the 

freshman year. If one expects to major in any of the sciences, 

mathematics should be taken in the first year. It is advisable 

to have a fairly definite plan for specialization by the end of the 

freshman year. 

For those who desire expert assistance in coming to a decision 

regarding the choice of a vocation, the College offers a special 

vocational guidance service. This consists of a series of tests, 

questionnaires, personal interviews, and help in interpreting the 

data thus obtained. The tests measure mental, physical, and 

emotional aptitudes, vocational interests, personality traits, etc. 

(A fee of $10.00 is charged for this service.) 

As an additional aid to the proper orientation of freshmen, 

specially trained upperclass students serve as personal advisers, 

particularly in such areas as the nature of a liberal education, 

the techniques of study, the proper budgeting of time and money, 

the choice of a vocation, the development of personality, and the 

building oEa philosophy of life.

way that is satisfactory to the instructor, provided this is done 

within one year. Students receiving the grade of F must repeat 

the course to receive credit for it. Students receiving the grade 

of I must complete the course within one year from date of 

record if a credit grade is to be given. 

Students who withdraw before the end of a semester receive 

a withdrawal gradc-WS (withdrawn satisfactory), WU (withdrawn

credit is allowed for these grades. 

The general quality of students' work is numerically determined 

by assigning quality points for each semester hour of a 

grade as follows:A, 3; B, 2; C, 1; D, 0; E,-l (until the condition 

is removed); F,-I. In order to be ranked in full class standing, 

students must complete successfully the normal program of semester 

hours with at least an equal number of quality points. 

The normal program for freshmen and sophomores is thirty-lour 

semester hours each year; for juniors and seniors, thirty semester 

hours. The number of semester hours which each course carries 

is stated after its description in the Coursesof Instruction section 

of this catalogue. 

Reports are mailed to parents at the end of each semester 

and at midsemester during the freshman year. Midsernesrer 

reports are also made in courses where upperclassmen are doing 

unsatisfactory work. The academic records are reviewed each 

semester by the Committee on Admissions and Standards. A 

student may be dropped from college when, in the opinion of 

the Committee, his scholarship record is so low as to justify such 

action. 

Honorable Mention is given for outstanding scholarship 

during a college year. This honor is read at the fall convocation 

and recorded on the permanent record and in the catalogue. An 

index of 2.1 is necessaryfor freshmen and sophomores to receive 

honorable mention; for juniors and seniors an index of 2.2 is 

necessary.

Arts and the Bachelor of Science. The Bachelor of Arts degree

GENERAL 

Student Aid 

SCHOLARSHIPS 

Western Maryland College has available a limited number 

of scholarships that are awarded annually to worthy students. 

Iu addition to those listed on pages 151 and 152, there are a few 

special scholarships ranging in value from one hundred dollars to 

full tuition annually. Applicants for these scholarships should 

address their inquiries to the President of the College not later 

than March I. 

SELF-HELP POSITIONS AND FRESHMAN SCHOLARSHIPS 

There are a number of self-help positions on the campus 

whereby a student can earn up to three hundred dollars annually. 

On the theory that freshman students should be free to give 

[ 40 1

1956 Scholarships 

full time to academic and exu-a-cun-icular activities, these positions 

are reserved for upperclassmen. To those freshman students, 

however, who find it necessary to have help of this sort, 

the College awards Freshman Scholarships for the first year only 

which give the student an outright grant equivalent to what he 

might earn in subsequent years. 

STATE 

SCHOLARSHIPS 

An Act of the General Assembly of Maryland enables the 

College to furnish tuition and board free to two students (one 

young man and one young woman) from each county of the 

State and from each legislative district of Baltimore City. A 

scholarship cannot be held by the same student for more than 

four years, nor beyond the time of receiving a Bachelor's degree; 

and the holder is required to give bond to the State of Maryland 

for such amount, with such security, as may be approved by the 

College, that he or she will teach school within the State for not 

less than two years after leaving College. In order to enable the 

College to carry out fully the intention of the Act of the Legislature 

providing for these scholarships, it is highly important 

that only those students be appointed who are graduates of accredited 

four-year high schools, who meet the scholastic requirements 

for recommendation of the State Department of Education, 

and who desire to qualify as high school teachers in the State of 

Maryland. A medical examination for the Teachers' Retirement 

Systemshould be required before an appointment is made. 

Candidates for these scholarships should apply to the Registrar 

of [he College for information regarding the competitive 

examination. 

NATIONAL METHODIST SCHOLARSHIPS 

The Board of Education of the Methodist Church makes 

available to Western Maryland College a limited number of 

scholarships known as "National Methodist Scholarships," for 

which members of the Methodist Church are eligible. They are 

awarded on the basis of academic excellence and financial need. 

The holders of the scholarships receive their educational expenses 

up to $400. Applications should be made to Dean Samuel 

B. Schofield,Western Maryland College, not later than May L

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION

Courses of Instruction 

COURSES are designated by departments and a three digit 

system of numerals. The first, or hundreds, digit in a number 

indicates the class standing that a student must attain to be 

eligibJe for the course. Freshmen may not register for any course 

numbered 201 or above; sophomores, 301 or above; juniors, 401 

or above.t 

Single numerals (e.g., 101) designate semester courses. 

Double numerals (e.g., 101, 102) indicate a year course. Odd 

numerals mark courses offered in the first semester, even numerals 

those in the second semester. Numerals such as 101; IOIR indicate 

a course which is given in both semesters. 

A semicolon is used to separate the numerals (e.g., 103; 

when each half year's work may be taken independently of 

104) 

the other and credit received for the work of a single semester. 

A comma placed between the numerals (e.g., 105, 106) indicates 

that the work the first semester is prerequisite to that of 

of 

the second but credit may be received for the work of the first 

semester without the completion of the work of the second. 

Hyphenated numerals «s. 107-108) indicate year courses 

which no credit is given until the work of both semesters has 

for 

been completed. 

An asterisk placed before the course designation (e.g., 6101) 

indicates that the work is considered introductory relation in to 

major requirements.

INVESTMENTS 

No forms of beneficenceexceed in importance gifts to education. 

Educational institutions are not money-making institutions-ctheir 

dividends are in character building and in mental 

development. The tuition which students are able to pay meets 

only part of the actual cost; the remainder must come from endowment 

and annual gifts. Friends of Western Maryland College 

should note the important work the College is doing in the 

field of higher education, and the opportunity the College offers 

for beneficencewhere most satisfactory results may be obtained. 

More than three million dollars have been expended in this 

institution in buildings and endowment. The success of the 

College has been phenomenal in many respects, but its success 

makes it imperative that a much larger endowment and a more 

extensive equipment be secured if the COllegeis [0 go forward 

in the most efficientway. 

The friends of higher education are respectfully asked to 

consider the claims of this institution and to join in making possible 

the complete successof the enterprise projected. 

Consideration is asked for the following items: 

.. $u,ooo.oo will endow a tuition scholarship. 

e. $~5,ooo.OOwill endow a scholarship that will provide both board 

and tuition for one student.
