CATALOG, MINNEHAHA ACADEMY Departments and Courses I. HIGH SCHOOL III. BIBLE INSTITUTE II. BUSINESS IV. MUSIC 1. High School Department F. J. HOLLINBECK, HEAD OF DEPARTMENT The studies pursued in this department are the same as those in a good high school. The important difference is the stress laid on instruction in the Bible. The courses are so arranged as to prepare students for entrance into college, university, or technical school, in the case of those who are planning such a career. Others, who do not contemplate advanced studies, will find the courses a broad education in themselves. ADMISSION Students who have graduated from the eighth grade of a public school are admitted into the first year of the Academy without examination. Those who have no such diploma are expected to show a mastery of the subjects taught in the public school, or take preliminary work. Anyone who has pursued studies in some other academy or high school and wishes to enter an advanced class will be given credit for the work done in another school. REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION To complete the course satisfactorily and secure a diploma as evidence thereof, a student must obtain 16 credits. This requirement is satisfied by carrying four regular studies through the year for four years. Mature students are able to shorten their course by carrying an extra subject or by attending our summer school. Ordinarily the student is required to follow’ one of the five prescribed courses: the Latin, the Modern Language, the Scientific, the Music, or the Business course. 21
