Reporter Discovers Old University Regulations
Forgotten Rulings Once Governed Students
By H. C. Cranford
Ancient laws and regulations
which once governed students at
Carolina provide an interesting
contrast with the celebrated lib
eralism which now prevails on
the campus.
Many of the acts and ordi
nances, now dust-coatea and
time-stained in the basement oif
the Library building, have never
been officially revoked.
Typical of the laws is one
which holds that any student
found on the campus after 9
o'clock at night will be subject
to punishment. T.his was ob
viously designed by the adminis
tration to discourage the popu
lar pastime known as "spark-
mg.
Another act declares that
"there shall be no shouting,
whistling, dancing or any bois
terous noise permitted in the pas
sages, rooms or from the win
dows." This would mean today that a
student on the first floor of a
dorm who called a second-floor
resident to answer the telephone
would be liable to punishment
and possible fine.
These old regulations, adopted
by the legislature and the Uni
versity board of trustees, were
passed in 1857 and have not been
republished since the school re
opened in 1875 following the
Civil War.
Religion was emphasized dur
ing the era. A law provi4es that
from November 1 to February 15
students must attend prayers at
6 :45 a.m. and at sunrise on other
days. It is safe to assume that
this law was a troublesome one,
as sleeping late was just as pleas
ant m those days as it is today.
Other regulations provide
that :
Students may not come to class
early because students may not
