COLLEGE.
The Georgia State Industrial College is a State Institution, the only one of its kind in Georgia, for colored youths. The grounds contain about eighty-six acres, consisting of thirty-five acres in the campus and fifty-one acres in the College farm. The campus, shaded by tall live oaks, festooned by pretty pendant moss, is, for natural scenery, the most attractive in the State. The location is perfectly healthful. The College farm is separated from the campus only by the railroad, by which passengers are carried from the city to the grounds. There are at present the following buildings on the grounds: Dormitory, two school buildings and chapel, farmhouse, industrial building, and five cottages for the professors. The courses at present established are the Industrial, Preparatory, Normal and Collegiate.
 

ADMISSION.
For admission into the college the applicant should not be less than fourteen years of age and of good moral character. He should be qualified to pass satisfactorily an entrance examination. Students should make it a point to be present on the opening day of the college. For special reasons students may be admitted at any time of the school year.
