Excerpt from List of Approved Colleges and Universities in the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools for 1913, Vol. 9 At the 1912 meeting of the Commission of the North Central Association the officers of the Commission were instructed to collect material, on the basis of which the Commission could adopt in 1913 an approved list of colleges and universities. A series of standards was prepared at the 1912 meeting on the recommendation of the Board of Inspectors. This series of standards is as follows: The Standard American College is a college with a four-year curriculum with a tendency to differentiate its parts in such a way that the first two years are a continuation of, and a supplement to, the work of secondary instruction as given in the high school, while the last two years are shaped more or less distinctly in the direction of special, professiona, or university instruction. The following constitute the standards for accrediting colleges for the present year: 1. The minimum scholastic requirement of all college teachers shall be equivalent to graduation from a college belonging to this Association, and graduate work equal at least to that required for a Master's degree. Graduate study and training in research equivalent to that required for the Ph.D. degree are urgently recommended, but the teacher's success is to be determined by the efficiency of his teaching, as well as by his research work. 2. The college shall require for admission not less than fourteen secondary units, as defined by this Association. 3. The college shall require not less than one hundred and twenty semester hours for graduation. 4. The college shall be provided with library and laboratory equipment sufficient to develop fully and illustrate each course announced. 5. The college, if a corporate institution, shall possess a productive endowment of not less than $200, 000. 6. The college, if a tax-supported institution, shall receive an annual income of not less than $100, 000. 7. The college shall maintain at least eight distinct departments in liberal arts, each with at least one professor giving full time to the college work in that department.
