Book Description
Excerpt from Bulletin, Sweet Briar College, Sweet Briar, Virginia, Vol. 9: Letter to Students; Students Registered, 1926-1927; September 1926 Sweet Briar is beautiful and the daily life a bit enchanting with a very direct and simple appeal, but our business is mental and spiri tual growth. The student will enjoy the life most who pursues it with an eager mind for new light on the true and the eternal, and who 80 intelligently manages herself and her time as to keep this in the first place. One of the cherished ideals of Sweet Briar is the belief that college women are capable of governing themselves and the students are trusted to maintain their own discipline. The honor system prevails, and there is no more valuable acquisition to be gained at college than an understanding of it and a scrupulous self-discipline under it. The President, the Dean and the Faculty stand ready at all times for advice and assistance. Each Freshman has a fac ulty adviser who will guide and direct her in her work, and in ad dition a student associate from the upper classes who will aid her to understand the social and student traditions and the real spirit of Sweet Briar. The Freshman class, as a whole, has a general adviser, Miss Mary Searle, who is accessible at all times. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
