GENERAL INFORMATION
THE SCHOOL
This school, conducted by the New York Yearly Meeting
of Friends, was founded in 1796 at Nine Partners, in
Dutchess County, N. Y. It was subsequently removed to
Cayuga County, and in 1860 was incorporated by the
Regents of the University of the State of New York under
the name of Friends' Academy at Union Springs. It was
carried on under that tilte until 1876, when, by a vote of
the Trustees, application was made to the Regents for a
change to the present name, The Oakwood Seminary.
Union Springs, Cayuga County, N. Y.,is situated on
the east side of Cayuga Lake, and on the Auburn and
Ithaca branch of the Lehigh Valley Railroad. The sur-
rounding country is noted for its healthful climate and
beautiful scenery.
The main building is of brick and stands on high ground
on the outskirts of Union Springs, overlooking Cayuga
Lake. It is heated by steam. There is an abundant sup-
ply of pure spring water brought from a distance. The
spring is so situated that no surface water can get into it
and is so far removed from dwellings that pollution from
any source is impossible.
This building contains the reception hail, class rooms,
studio, dining-room, library, parlors, bath-rooms and stu-
dents' private rooms. Just south of the main building
stands "The Gramercy," in which the Commercial De-
partment is conducted.
Simple and healthful food, well cooked and well served,
and regularity of meals, insure the good health of board-
ing pupils. Serious illness among pupils is rare.
ADMISSION
Both boys and girls of suitable age and good character
are admitted to the school. They may enter to the best
GENERAL INFORMATION
advantage at the beginning of the school year, or at the
beginning of the second half-year. Pupils will be received,
however, at any time during the school year, if there is a
vacancy in the dormitory.
Before entering upon any of the four-year courses of
the school, a pupil must either present a Regents' prelimi-
nary certificate in reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic,
United States history, geography, and elementary English,
or present a satisfactory equivalent certificate, or pass an
entrance examination given at the school in these subjects.
Pupils not far enough advanced to begin one of the four-
year courses shall enter the preparatory department where
they will receive instruction in the required branches.
Pupils will be admitted to advanced standing on approved
credentials or by examination.
Parents desiring admission for a pupil should file an
application before September 1st if possible. Blank forms
will he sent on request. These should be filled out care-
fully and returned to the principal. Pupils not known to
the principal must furnish certificates of good character,
and pupils who have been attending school elsewhere must
bring certificates of honorable dismissal. The school is
not a reform school and boys or girls likely to have a
harmful influence on their associates will not be admitted,
or will not be allowed to continue if after entrance they
prove unsuitable.
Althntgh the school is under the care of New York
Yearly 3feeting' of the Religious Society of Friends mem-
bers of other denominations are admitted. Corres2ondence
in regard to admission is solicited.
ADVANTAGES OF OAKWOOD
It is the desire of the management to conduct a first-
class school of academic grade which shall foster an atmos-
GENERAL INFORMATION
phere of culture and refinement, where may thrive whole-
some and dignified ideals of life consistent with the princi-
ples of moderation and simplicity characteristic of Friends.
Most boys and girls need the beneficial discipline of a life
of regularity and industry. The boarding-school is one
of the most efficient means of correcting the abnormal and
developing the normal in character. Pride and conceit,
selfishness, self-consciousness, self-distrust, and ill-temper
in the atmosphere of a wholesome boarding-school are
automatically and almost imperceptibly crowded out by
their opposites. It is surprising how prevalent is the
altruistic and unselfish motive found in evidence. Group-
spirit, self-reliance, and a feeling of personal responsibility
come easily and naturally. Then too, here at Oakwood,
the pupils come into close contact, both in and out of
school hours, with their teachers, men and women of earn-
est Christian character, culture and education, whose influ-
ence cannot fail to be helpful and inspiring.
SOCIAL LIFE
Social training is not neglected because it is one of the
most potent agencies in accomplishing the proper work of
character development. When needed, instruction is given
in social customs and the proprieties of social life. Per-
sonal habits of neatness and good order are stimulated by
systematic inspection of rooms. In order to provide a
proper time and place for social intercourse among the
pupils as well as to give opportunity for putting into prac-
tice the instruction given, a social gathering of the pupils
occurs each Saturday evening in the school parlors. A
committee selected from time to time by the Student Board
assume the part of hosts and hostesses and provide games
and other entertainment for these occasions.
GENERAL INFORMATION 9
At times during the year, half-holidays not to exceed
four in all, are granted either for the purpose of making
picnic excursions to Frontenac Island, the Falls of the Big
Gully, or other nearby points of interest, or for the pur-
pose of taking advantage of fine weather for good skating
or coasting.
RELIGIOUS ADVANTAGES
While aiming to give each pupil a liberal education, his
moral and religious welfare is always considered of the
first importance. Meetings for worship are conducted
after the manner of the Society of Friends in New York
State, and all resident pupils and day pupils who are
Friends, are expected to attend Friends' meeting regularly,
while all are required to attend Bible Study Classes held
in the school building each week.
By conforming to the simple school regulations relative
thereto, pupils who are members of Baptist, Methodist,
Presbyterian or Protestant Episcopal churches, may attend
the church of their own denomination in Union Springs at
least once per month.
DISCIPLINE AND REGULATIONS
The mere fact of entering the school constitutes on the
part of the pupil a pledge to be obedient to the authority
of the Principal and his assistants.
The requirements and customs of the school are easily
learned. As few rules are made as are consistent with the
proper conduct of a school of this character. Good order,
good manners, sound habits of study, and proper social
training are some of the results which the regulations are
designed to bring about. The religious life and moral tone
of the school have reached a comparatively high standard
of excellence. Pupils are not encouraged to return who

branches of study is selected and treated with the require-
ments of the Regents' Academic Syllabus of 1905 as a
basis.
ENGLISH
The study of the English language, holds a prominent
place in the work of the school. it is required in all four
years of the academic course. The literature read and
studied is selected from the list prescribed by the Uniform
College Entrance Board in accordance with their require-
ments and supplementary reading is prescribed by the
teacher from the list recommended for that purpose by
the National Educational Association.
Special emphasis is placed on the work of composition
and rhetoric. Certain kinds of composition are prescribed
for the several terms but for the sake of practice and
variety the work of each term includes work in the forms
studied in various terms. During the course pupils are
called upon to write stories, anecdotes, abstracts, character
sketches, descriptions of persons and places, news items,
editorials, imaginative themes suggested by the literature
studied and exercises in exposition and argumentation.
Themes are usually required once each week, although for
an occasional long theme a greater length of time is given.
The advanced study of grammar is distributed throughout.
the several years on the principle that it should be kept
constantly connected with the study of the language.
Both spelling and writing are required by all pupils
throughout the course. Pupils are taught incidentally how
to use dictionaries, encycIopa~dias and general works of
reference. A systematic use of the library is encouraged
in the study of literature and for the purpose of giving
pupils experience in collecting data for oral and written
compositions.
COURSE OF STUDY
VOICE TRAINING IN READING AND SPEAKING
Recognizing the great need which so manifestly exists
for young men and women who can make themselves
understood when they read aloud, as well as to bring out
with force and clearness the meaning of what they read,
a new policy has been inaugurated in connection with the
teaching of English literature. Under the direction of the
teacher of music and reading, one period of each week of
the classwork in English, in all years, will be devoted to
training in reading and expression using prescribed literary
classics as the medium.
SCIENCE
The courses of instruction in Science are conducted in
accordance with the requirements outlined in the Regents'
Academic Syllabus of 1905. During the summer of 1906,
the capacity of the laboratory was more than doubled and
there was added considerable new equipment and apparatus
amply making it possible to do excellent work in this de-
partment on the most approved lines. Each pupil is ex-
pected to perform at least the required number of experi-
ments individually and to keep a note-book in which he
records at the time of the experiment a brief description,
usually accompanied by a drawing, of how the experiment
was done and definitely stating, with logical reasoning, the
result of the experiment. The natural surroundings of
Union Springs are very favorable for the study of zoology,
botany, physical geography and geology. Four years of
science work may be taken, but two years of science, aggre-
gating ten Regents' counts, are required for graduation.
The courses given are: physical geography, including ele-
mentary work in astronomy, geology, meteorology and
physiography; biology, including elementary work in bot-
any, zoology and physiology; physics; and chemistry.
COURSE OF STUDY
MATHEMATICS
ALGEBRA. -Elementary Algebra covers the usual topics
through quadratic equations including ratio and proportion
and the binomial theorem. Intermediate Algebra includes
a thorough review of Elementary Algebra with the study
of theory of exponents, imaginaries, theory of quadratic
equations, progressions, and graphic interpretations of
equations. Advanced Algebra covers amply the topics
required for entrance to any of the leading technical schools.
GEOMETRY. -The work in plain and solid geometry and
trigonometry amply covers the work required for entrance
in those subjects to any of the leading colleges. The min-
imum requirement in each subject is the outline made by
the Regents in their syllabus of 1905.
FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Latin is so studied that the pupil is trained to appreciate
the literary style and substance of what he reads. Careful
drill is also given in grammatical forms, syntax and prose
composition. Especial attention is given to fulfilling the
college requirements.
In French and German the student is instructed in read-
ing and idiomatic expression, as well as in formal grammar.
The literature as well as the language, is studied.
HISTORY
The attention of pupils is directed to causes and results
rather than to details of dates and incidents. Pupils are
encouraged to form opinions of their own as to the value
of men and events, and the text-book study is supple~
mented by references to well-known historical works.
Stress is laid upon historical geography, and the drawing
of illustrative maps is required in the different courses..
Page 20
COURSE OF STUDY
THE ENGLISH BIBLE
It is strongly urged by leading educators generally that
every boy and girl of school age should receive systematic
and thorough instruction in the history and literature of
the Bible. The patrons of the school are also reminded
that one of the fundamental reasons for the existence of
the school is the fact that it affords an opportunity, which
is impossible under existing conditions in the public schools,
for just such study of the Scriptures. The school, there-
fore, offers the following as a regular course, required of
all boarding pupils in all courses twice each week through-
out the year.
1st year: Old Testament Heroes. A study of the charac-
ters of the Old Testament, beginning with Moses.
This is intended as an introduction to the more
complete study of Hebrew history.
2d year: The story of the Hebrew people taken up in a
more historical way, from the time of Moses to the
Roman period.
3d year: The life and work of Jesus, a study of the four
gospels.
4th year: The beginnings of the Apostolic church with es-
pecial attention to the life and writings of St. Paul.
COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT
In this department, the school provides an excellent
opportunity for boys and girls to acquire the foundation
principles of a good business training without sacrificing
the advantages of a high-school education. In connection
with the four year academic course, the student may elect
such commercial subjects as seem best suited to individual
purpose, or if the time is too limited to permit of corn-
pleting a four year course, the commercial subjects with
COURSE OF STUDY
Page 21
two years of academic English w~ may be covered in
two school years. No pupil should under any but the
most special circumstances, plan to take up commercial
work without having previously completed the require-
ments for entrance to high-school grade.
The following commercial subjects are offered:
Bookkeeping, Elementary and Advanced,
Business Arithmetic,
Business Correspondence and Writing,
Business Law,
Commercial Geography,
Typewriting.
These subjects are taken up in the usual manner with the
best available text-books. Individual instruction in book-
keeping and typewriting, makes it possible for the pupil
to progress in proportion to his ability and initiative.
DRAWING
The aim of the work is not only to teach drawing as a
means of expression, but to increase the power of con-
ception and execution, to develop appreciation of beauty
in nature and in the arts and crafts, and to correlate it
with the other school work. The courses are elementary
drawing, advanced drawing, and mechanical drawing. In-
struction is given in light and shade, drawing with char-
coal, from the cast and still life, and pencil sketching.
Drawing includes work in nature drawing, pictorial,
structural, and decorative drawing. Class lectures are
given on artists and on the history of art. The historic
styles are studied and the typical features of each are care-
fully worked out.
Mechanical drawing includes work in free-hand drawing,
descriptive geometry, building construction, machine drawÄ
ing, design, and the history of architecture.

COURSE OF STUDY
MUSIC
Realizing the value of a good musical education to any
student this department aims to give thorough foundation
work to beginners, and a careful guidance to pupils of
more advanced grades. It is the consistent purpose to in-
spire in all pupils an appreciation of good music.
The work of the Music Department has been reorganized
and its scope enlarged because of the fact that the teacher
in charge will hereafter reside in the dormitory and devote
her entire teaching time to the pupils of the school.
Class work in Vocal Music is required of all pupils un-
less excused by the Principal for good and sufficient reasons.
This work is divided into three grades or classes according
to previous training and ability. The First Class master
the fundamental principles of music with instruction in
proper breathing and voice-placing.
The Second Class is given work in sight-reading and
practice in part-singing.
The Third Class reviews the principles of music and
continues the work of the previous class, eventually taking
up some of the well known choruses by the best composers.
Private Vocal Lessons will be given to those desiring.
Candidates for admission to Normal Schools are recom-
mended, after covering the work of the three music classes,
to take private lessons in the fourth year, if they have not
begun earlier in the course. After a thorough under-
standing of the principles of voice technique, the student
takes up the study of Vaccai, Spicker's "Masterpieces of
Vocalization" and the interpretation of the simple song
classics.
PIANO LESSONS
Both Matthew's and the National Graded Studies are
used in this work. Also studies by Gurlitt, Lchner, and
COURSE OF STUDY
Page 23
Loeschhorn are taken up and selections chosen from
Schumann's "Album for the Young." For more ad-
vanced pupils, Bach, Czerny and standard classics for the
piano are used.
PHYSICAL CULTURE AND ATHLETICS
It is the school policy to stimulate and foster general
interest in outdoor athletic exercise and there are oppor-
tunities afforded for out-door and in-door basket-ball, foot-
ball, tether-ball, tennis, base-ball, skating, coasting and
rowing.
An experienced physician makes a thorough physical
examination of each girl to determine her fitness for ath-
letic Work. Girls who are not in proper condition of
health are not allowed to participate in strenuous athletic
exercises or contests.
Regular gymnasium work is required of both boys and
girls, in separate classes. The drills and exercises are
based on the Swedish system of gymnastic work. Partic-
ular attention is given to the important matter of correct
posture in standing and walking. Poise and gracefulness
of movement are also striven for.
Page 24
MISCELLANEOUS
Parents are requested to co-operate with the faculty in
regard to the proper amount of clothing for their children.
Many times the unobserved carelessness of pupils in this
respect has resulted in LaGrippe or hard colds which might
easily have been avoided with proper care.
All articles intended for the laundry should be indelibly
marked with the owner's name.
It is hoped that pocket money will be provided sparingly.
Any money left in the care of the principal will be given
to the pupils as directed by parents or guardians.
Pupils who do not wish to pursue one of the regular
courses may, with the consent of the principal, select sub-
jects for study from the regular courses of the school.
Pupils who are not on one of the regular school ~courses
must choose such studies as will not interfere with the pro-
gram of the school.
Each month a report, showing the standing of the pupil
is sent to the parents.
The school reserves the right to change its regulations
without further notice.
Each pupil should bring a Bible (American revised ver-
sion recommended), an English dictionary, and whatever
text-books he may have. A list of the text-books in use
will be sent on request.
Each pupil should come provided with towels, napkins,
toilet soap, blacking utensils, a bag for soiled clothes, over-
shoes, umbrella, gymnasium suit and gymnasium shoes.
In case of illness requiring use of hot-water, bottle, or
other appliances they should be provided by the pupil.

EXPENSES
Considerable thought and effort has been given to this
subject by the management and an earnest effort has been
made to keep the expense of attending Oakwood within
the reach of worthy pupils of moderate means and at the
same time to provide for the proper and necessary cost of
maintenance. The endowment funds held in trust for the
benefit of the school are sufficient to enable the manage-
ment to offer comparatively low rates. The farm con-
nected with the school is also a valuable factor in solving
the problem, providing as it does such a large part of the
vegetables and milk used in maintaining the excellence and
variety of the table board.
The charge for tuition and board, including furnished
room, (two in a room), steam-heat, light, plain washing,
and use of library, per year, $250. 00 This is payable in
advance by terms as follows:
At the beginning of the Fall term.....$95.00
At the beginning of the Winter term....95.00
At the beginning of the Spring term....60.00
By virtue of the provisions of the will of the late John G. Lane
reductions from the above rates are made to children of members of
the New York Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends,
which reduce the yearly charge to $190.00 payable in advance by
terms as follows:
At the beginning of the Fall term......$70.00
At the beginning of the Winter term.....70.00
At the beginning of the Spring term.....50.00
These reduced rates do not represent the actual cost per pupIl of
maintainIng the school, the income of the John D. Lane Fund being
used to make up the deficiencies.

actual cost of materials used.
Any damage to the property of the Seminary as a result
of wilfulness or carelessness will be assessed upon the per-
son or persons responsible.
Text-books and stationery may be procured at the school
on strictly cash terms at current prices. If accounts are
opened, a deposit of five dollars is required at the begin-
ning of each term.
Accounts for the previous term must be satisfactorily
settled before a student is allowed to continue his work in
the school.
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Partial scholarships from the income of certain funds
may be granted to children of the members of New York
EXPENSES
Yearly Meeting who are not able to attend the school with-
out this assistance. The amount which can be thus used is
limited. An earnest effort is made to investigate the merits
of each case so as to insure fairness to all applicants and
to promote the best interests of the school. Good deport-
ment and satisfactory school work are necessary require-
ments for the continuation of such aids. Blank applica-
tions for these scholarships will be furnished by the school
on request.
Those desiring to receive this assistance and to enter the
school in the autumn of 1909 should obtain these blanks,
fill them out, have them indorsed by a member of the
Board of Trustees, and return them to the Principal prior
to August 1st, 1909.
The trustees have also a limited fund from which loans
may be made to worthy students on approved notes.
Write the Principal of the school for further infor-
mation.
REBATES FOR ABSENCES
In case a pupil is absent from the school on account
of illness, or is obliged to leave school on account of ill-
health or other unavoidable reason, a rebate will be made
subject to the following restrictions:
No reduction will be made for less than four consecutive
weeks of absence, and then for board only.
In case of pupils receiving aid from educational funds,
the amount of such aid for the term in which the absence
occurs will be deducted and only the excess, if any, will.
be rebated.
