Special Course of Study at Walla Walla College
On Wednesday, November 26, a special course of study for Christian workers will begin at Walla Walla College, which will continue twenty-four weeks, and will end with the close of school, May 12, 1903. This course is especially intended for those who can spend but a short time in school work, such as ministers, Bible workers, canvassers, and church and Sabbath-school officers. If any cannot attend during the full time of the course, they will find the work of the first term of twelve weeks valuable and practical. The course of studies adopted by the board of trustees is as follows:— FIRST TERM — TWELVE WEEKS
Present Truth.—Embracing the faith and doctrines of Seventh-day Adventists. English Language.—The essentials of English grammar will be combined with composition and letter writing. Physiology and Hygiene.—The fundamental principles of the subject as a foundation for simple treatments and Christian Help work during the second term. Gospel Methods.—General instruction in Sabbath-school work, two weeks; church organization, two weeks; Bible readings, four weeks; home and foreign work, two weeks; manners and etiquette, two weeks. SECOND TERM — TWELVE WEEKS
Present Truth.—Subject continued. English Language.—Subject continued. Arithmetic.—Special subjects adapted to the needs of the class. How to keep simple accounts. Gospel Methods.—Simple treatment, two weeks; Christian Help work, two weeks; work in new fields, five weeks; principles of canvassing, and questions and answers, three weeks. In all these classes careful attention will be given to reading, writing, and spelling. Upon entering school each pupil will select a standard book of the denomination, and will make it a subject of earnest reading and study, with a view of thoroughly mastering its contents. It is expected that the leading ministers will be called in from the field for a few weeks at a time, to give the classes the benefit of their experience in methods of labor and Bible study. If the needs of the students are not fully met by the foregoing studies, they will be at liberty to choose from the entire program of the college such classes as will meet their individual needs. The rates for board and tuition will be the same as those published in the calendar, but students of mature age will be permitted to secure private places for boarding and rooming themselves outside of the college home, if they desire to do so. All who think of attending this special course should correspond at once with the president of the college, Prof. C. C. Lewis, College Place, Wash.
