GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION
Bloomsburg State College,

owned

as

one of the fourteen

institutions of higher education in Pennsylvania, has

charged by the

Commonwealth

to serve as ".

.

.a

state-

been

center of learn-

ing for the best possible education of the youth of Pennsylvania
in

the arts and sciences and to provide able and dedicated

teachers.

The arts and sciences are regarded as fundamental to all of
the activities implied by this charge. During the past several
years, the College has moved to strengthen the academic departments and to expand the range of services through the addition
of pre-professional programs, continuing education, programs in
the health-related sciences and business administration.
Although dedicated primarily to undergraduate work, the
College offers masters degrees in teacher education and in
certain academic disciplines.

Bloomsburg State College welcomes qualified students,
faculty and staff without regard to racial, religious or ethnic

backgrounds.
1.2

ORGANIZATION

Bloomsburg State College is organized in five schools, Arts
and Sciences, Professional Studies, Business, Extended Studies
and Graduate Studies. The scope and internal structure of each
school
1.3

is

described in the appropriate chapter of this catalogue.

LOCATION

The Town of Bloomsburg, county seat of Columbia
County, is an industrial, trading, and residential community of
11,000 located on Route 11, 80 miles north of Harrisburg. It is
within two miles of two interchanges of Interstate 80.
Bloomsburg is served by the Greyhound and Continental
Trailways bus lines. Commercial airports are accessible at
Wilkes-Barre-Scranton on Route 81, and at Williamsport; each
is about an hour's drive from Bloomsburg.
1.4

HISTORY

An academy "to teach youth the elements of a classical
education" was established in Bloomsburg in 1839. The academy
continued with varied fortunes until 1856, when a charter was

32

/

HISTORY

prepared and stock issued to reorganize as Bloomsburg Literary
Institute. A building now known as Carver Hall in memory of
Henry Carver, principal at the time, was erected in 1867.
Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Bloomsburg Literary Institute became Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Normal School
in 1869; it continued under this name and organization until
1916 when it was purchased by the Commonwealth and called
Bloomsburg State Normal School.

The emphasis at the Normal School changed during the
1920 's from secondary and college-preparatory courses for
special teachers to full-time teacher education. In May 1927 the
institutional name was changed to Bloomsburg State Teachers
early

College, authorized to grant a Bachelor of Science in Education
for teachers in elementary and secondary schools.

Under the administration of President Francis B. Haas
(1927-1939), great progress was made in the teacher education
program; in 1930, a new field was added with the degree program in Business Education. Several new buildings were constructed and 18 acres of land added to the campus.

Upon the appointment of Dr. Haas as State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, then Dean of
Instruction and a former Director of the Business Education
Department, was appointed president, a position he held until
his retirement in 1969. During World War II, the US Navy V-12
Officer Training Program was conducted on the Bloomsburg
Campus, a
In

fact

still

commemorated by

the

name

of Navy Hall.

1957, a Division of Special Education was inaugurated,

which

is still

housed

in that building.

The major expansion of the College in buildings, faculty,
and student body took place after that, full-time enrollments
rising from 1,743 in 1960 to 6,000 in the fall of 1977. In 1960
the name of the school was changed to Bloomsburg State
College; authorization was received shortly thereafter to grant
the Bachelor of Arts degree for liberal arts programs in humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. In 1960, graduate
study leading to the Master of Education degree was inaugurated. In 1968, initial approval was received for the degree,
Master of Arts and in 1970 for the degree, Master of Science.
Current efforts are directed toward development as a multiple-purpose college offering liberal arts and teacher education
curricula at the undergraduate and master's degree levels, and
business and other professional curricula in vocations other than
teaching as these are suited to the resources of the College.

BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES

Campus
The campus of Bloomsburg State College comprises two
Lower Campus and Upper Campus, with total

tracts called the

area of 173 acres.

The Lower Campus comprises the

original

campus and

adjacent areas subsequently acquired. It contains the residence
halls, dining hall, college store, administration building, audi-

torium, library, academic buildings and recreation areas. The
Upper Campus, a half mile from the Lower Campus, was once
the Bloomsburg Country Club; it contains the E. H. Nelson
Field House, the Redman Stadium, the Litwhiler Baseball
Field and three practice areas. Long-range plans presume
further development of the Upper Campus for academic and
recreation purposes.
Instructional Buildings

Bakeless Center for the Humanities, completed in 1970, is
an air-conditioned building containing classrooms, lecture halls,
faculty offices, and an exhibit area. It is used primarily by the
departments of English, art, foreign languages, speech, economics and political science. The building was named for the
Bakeless family including: Professor Oscar H. Bakeless, a
graduate of the school and former distinguished member of the
faculty; his wife, Sara H. Bakeless, a graduate and former
faculty member; their son, Dr. John E. Bakeless, a graduate of
the college, an author, and a recipient of the Alumni Distinguished Service Award; their daughter, Mrs. Alex Nason, a
graduate and benefactor of the college; and their daughterin-law, Mrs. Katherine L. Bakeless, graduate of the school and
a nationally-known author.
Hartline Science Center, completed in 1968, is an airconditioned facility with classrooms, lecture halls, seminar
rooms, laboratories, faculty offices and an exhibit area; it
accommodates the departments of chemistry, physics, biology,
mathematics, and earth and space science.

former teacher of biology, and his son Dr. H. Keffer Hartline,
1968 Nobel Prize laureate and recipient of an Alumni Distinguished Service Award.
Sutliff Hall, completed in 1960, contains classrooms and
faculty offices of the School of Business and several laboratories
and classrooms for physical sciences. William Boyd Sutliff, for
whom the building was named, was a teacher of mathematics
and the first Dean of Instruction of Bloomsburg State Normal
School.

Benjamin Franklin Hall, completed in 1930 for use as a
campus laboratory school, is now used for college classes, administrative offices, and the Computer Services Center.
Navy Hall was constructed in 1939 as a campus laboratory
school but was converted during World War II for the use of
candidates enlisted in the Navy V-12 Officer Training Program.
It now houses the work in special education and communication
disorders and provides a number of other classrooms and offices.
Science Hall, often called "Old Science" to distinguish it
from Hartline Science Center, was built in 1906. It houses the
Departmental offices of History and Psychology and has several
classrooms and some facilities used by the Art Department.
Centennial Gymnasium, completed in 1939, contains a
gymnasium which seats 1,200, two auxiliary gymnasiums, a
swimming pool, and offices and classrooms for physical education and athletics.
E. H. Nelson Field House. This building, located on the
Upper Campus, was completed in 1972. It provides a varsity
basketball court and folding bleachers for 2,600 spectators. There
is an indoor track, and a six -lane varsity swimming pool with
seating for 500 spectators. Faculty offices, handball courts,
classrooms, shower and dressing areas, equipment rooms, and
special rooms for physical training and therapy are included.
The building is used for health and physical education classes,
varsity athletic contests, and for other activities requiring seating of large audiences.

Bus transportation

course is an advanced course which is taught by only one member of
the faculty, the examination committee must include at least two
faculty members.
The examination must cover the course syllabus in a comprehensive manner. Suitable standardized examinations may be used. The
examination must be written or, if oral, subject to transcription.
Where skill, as in typewriting or shorthand, is a course requirement,
the written and oral aspects must be supplemented by demonstration of skill. All papers must be filed in the department office for
three years following graduation.
If the student passes the examination, the grade of "P" is assigned
for the course. If he fails, no record is made. This course does not
count in the student's normal quota of pass-fail courses.
A flat fee of $25 is charged for each course challenged by institutional examination taken for credit, regardless of the number
of credits awarded for that course. Upon receipt of approval, this
fee is payable at the College Business Office. Evidence of payment
must be presented to the department before the examination can
be administered.
Suitable adaptations of the above procedures may be used to
validate transfer courses taken in non-accredited colleges. No fee is
charged for examination to validate such credit. Examinations may

be based upon the syllabi of the courses taken in the previous institution or, in case the student wishes to establish equivalency with
courses in this college, upon the syllabi of courses offered in this institution.

Auditing of Courses
A full-time student who is enrolled for less than seventeen
semester hours of course work may, with consent of the VicePresident for Academic Affairs and subject to overload fees as
stated in Section 2.2, register for one course as an auditor. If
the registrant attends at least three-fourths of the regular class
meetings the grade of V will be reported by the instructor and
the course will be entered on the academic record without
credit. No assignments are made to an auditor and no papers or
examinations are accepted by the instructor for grading or re-

cord either during the period of enrollment or subsequent thereto. An auditor may not participate in laboratory or studio work
if such work is part of the course audited.
A part-time student may register as an auditor, subject to
the provision that when computing the fee paid by the student
the course audited will be counted the same as if it were taken
for credit. Individuals who are not enrolled as students may
apply for audit privileges through the Director of Continuing
Education; acceptance depends upon such factors as space in
class and educational background.
Class Standing

A student has academic standing as a freshman until he/she
has 32 semester hours of credit; as a sophomore from 32 to 63
semester hours, a junior from 64 to 95 semester hours, and a
more semester hours of credit. Transfer credit,
included in these figures.
For purposes of social and housing privileges and regulations, the definitions of class standing are as follows: freshman,
to and including 29 semester hours; sophomore, 30 to 59
semester hours; junior, 60 to 89 semester hours; senior, 90 or

GRADES

when a plan exists and is understood by both instructor and
student whereby the work which remained to be done may be
completed and graded. When the work has been completed, a
permanent grade is submitted by the instructor to replace the
grade of "I".
Unless specifically stated in a written plan filed in the
Registrar's Office it is assumed that the work will be completed
prior to the end of the next semester. If the plan is not fulfilled,
the grade of "I" remains a part of the student's record (it is not
subject to change at a later time). In the case of graduate students the grade of I is replaced by symbol N; this symbol remains permanently on the student's record.
A request for extension of time for the removal of a grade
of "I" may be granted upon approval of the instructor and the
dean of the school after suitable documentation has been presented indicating that circumstances above and beyond the
control of the student persist or new circumstances of that
nature have developed.

P—Passed. This grade is recorded when a student takes a
course on a Pass-Fail basis and does work which would lead to
a grade of "D" or higher. The grade of P is also recorded when
a course is passed by proficiency examination.

F— This

/

A student under academic dismissal is ineligible to attend
any courses offered by the College for a period of at least one
calendar year. Readmission regulations are stated in Chapter 4.
Appeals

A

student under academic dismissal may petition the AcaReview Board for reinstatement. If reinstatement is
granted, the conditions pertaining thereto are stated, and the
student's record is marked "Reinstated." If the student does
not attain Good Standing by the end of the period granted by
the conditions of reinstatement he/she is excluded from further
registration and his/her record is again marked "Academic
Dismissal."
Petitions to the Academic Review Board must be in writing and must be filed with the Vice-President for Academic
Affairs within 48 hours of receipt of notification.
The Academic Review Board comprises the Deans of the
Schools of Arts and Sciences, Professional Studies, and Business;
a representative of the Vice-President for Student Life; the
Director of the Counseling Center; the Director of Admissions;
the Dean of Extended Programs; and the Registrar of the
College. At the initiative of either the applicant or the Academic Review Board, the student's adviser will be invited to
participate as a voting member in the consideration of the case.
In its evaluation of a petition for reinstatement, the Academic Review Board is charged to consider: the degree to which
external factors beyond the student's control temporarily prevented optimum academic achievement; the likelihood that
these or similar factors would not recur if reinstatement were
granted; the likelihood that the student, if reinstated, can complete his/her curriculum successfully within a reasonable extension of the normal four-year period; an evaluation of the plan
for attaining Good Standing proposed by the student as a part of
his/her petition; and such other factors as may seem pertinent.
Reinstatement is an expression of confidence on the part of the
Board in the student's potential for successful completion of
his/her curriculum and his/her fulfillment of its purposes.
A student whose petition for reinstatement has been denied
by the Academic Review Board may appeal the decision within
48 hours to a special panel consisting of the vice-presidents of
the College, provided the dean of the school in which the student has been enrolled supports the appeal by certifying a judgment that it presents evidence concerning pertinent factors that
either were not placed before the Board or were given insufficient attention. The appellant must petition in writing through

EVALUATION OF TRANSFER CREDITS
Evaluation of credit earned at other institutions

is

made

by the department chairperson, subject to confirmation by the
appropriate school dean. Credits for acceptable courses transfer;
grades, quality points, and grade point average do not transfer.
Acceptable courses must have been completed in an accredited college or university or in a recognized or accredited
junior college or community college. Courses must be applicable
to the student's curriculum either as substitutes for required
courses or as electives, credit will be deleted if the student subsequently registers for courses which substantially duplicate the
content of courses accepted for transfer.

A

student is entitled to an opportunity to validate by
examination a course presented for transfer when the substitution of transfer credit for a required course is in question because the course was taken in an unaccredited institution or because of uncertainty concerning the syllabus or standards of the
course. When they are available, standardized examinations are
used.

Correspondence courses are subject to acceptance to a

an accredited college or university and acceptable by that institution toward graduation in a baccalaureate degree curriculum.
Courses taken in another institution on a Pass-Fail basis are
acceptable if they conform to the conditions for such grades at

A transfer student is issued an evaluation sheet which
stipulates the requirements for graduation which remain to be
met; this is subject to revision in the light of subsequent changes

The instructor may assess penalties ranging from a privately administered reprimand to a grade of E in the course. If the
offense appears to merit a more severe penalty, the instructor is

the Student-Faculty Judiciary.
In order to avoid the appearance of plagiarism resulting

UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULA:
INTRODUCTION

6.1

CHOICE OF CURRICULUM
The undergraduate

curricula are

administered by three

schools, the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Profes-

and the School of Business. The requirements of
the curricula are stated in the chapters which deal with these
sional Studies

schools.

A student must have committed himself/herself to a curriculum and secured admission thereto by the end of the sophomore year, except that a student who transfers to Bloomsburg
State College with junior standing has a grace period of one
semester.

Students

who upon

that

initial entrance into the College deSchool of Business are assigned at once

school; other students are assigned

initially

to the

School of Arts and Sciences, except that students who express
interest in teacher education are tentatively assigned to the
School of Professional Studies. Students may make a tentative
choice of curriculum or may declare themselves undecided; if
they have made a tentative choice this becomes one of the
determinants for selection of courses during the period which
precedes the final commitment, but admission to courses of a
curriculum does not bind the School or the College to official
admission of the student to the curriculum in cases where admission is selective or restricted. In particular, admission to
curricula in the School of Professional Studies is selective.
6.2

CREDIT

Each curriculum which leads to a baccalaureate degree requires the successful completion of 128 semester hours of credit.
A semester hour is defined as the credit for one weekly period
of fifty minutes in lecture, discussion or recitation for one semester; in case a course requires laboratory, shop or studio experience, two or in some cases three periods are considered as
equivalent to one period of lecture, discussion or recitation.
6.3

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS

The primary objective of General Education is to encourage in students, irrespective of their vocational pursuits, the development of those understandings, attitudes, values, and social
skills that will enable them to enjoy a fuller life and to play a

more constructive

role in society.

and should require the student to have experiences in the three
recognized broad areas of knowledge: the humanities for their
insights concerning intellectual and ethical values, the social
sciences for enlightenment basic to understanding problems of
society, and the sciences and mathematics for mature appreciation of the contribution of these branches of knowledge in
determining the nature of an industrial-technical society.
Prescription of general education courses has been set at a
minimum in order to give each student, with the help of an advisor, the opportunity to survey his previous background and
choose new intellectual experiences that provide opportunity
for optimum growth. This policy places important responsibility upon the student for discrimination in making decisions.
General Education courses should be those which contribute to the broadening and rounding of our students' education
in line with the stated philosophy of General Education.
Each college department will re-list General Education
courses subject to appropriate review.

designed primarily for majors in a discipline and should not be
courses in methods and materials.)

GENERAL INFORMATION

Degrees

The degrees, Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Bachelor of Science (B.S.) are conferred for programs offered in the School of
Arts and Sciences.
The aim of a program which leads to the degree, Bachelor
of Arts, is to offer the student opportunity for a liberal education through study in both breadth and depth of disciplines in
the humanities, the social sciences and the natural sciences and

mathematics.
The aim of a program which leads to the Bachelor of Science degree is to offer opportunity for liberal education together with a specialization that may have the potential of application.

supplementary advisement to students who hope to
seek admission to professional schools of medicine, dentistry,
optometry, pharmacy, occupational
medicine,
veterinary
therapy and physical therapy.
Members of this committee are assigned to help pre-professional students to familiarize themselves with admission requirements of the professional schools, and to select college
courses in harmony with these requirements. They also assist
students in preparing applications for admission to professional
special,

schools.

Students who wish to undertake pre-professional study
should indicate this interest on their application for admission
to the College in order that an appropriate adviser may be
assigned at the outset.

Pre-medicine, Pre-dentistry, Pre-veterinary Medicine,

Pre-optometry

As a rule, professional schools in these areas do not specify
an undergraduate major, but they do specify minimum essential
courses, especially in the sciences and mathematics. These minimum requirements usually include courses in general chemistry,
organic chemistry, mathematics, biology and physics. High
standards of undergraduate scholarship are demanded for consideration.

Pharmacy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy

Although requirements for admission to these schools vary,
is advised to take one year of work in each of chemistry, mathematics and biology. A year of work in physics is
sometimes required. The assistance of advisers from the Committee on Pre-professional Study should be sought.
the student

Pre-Law
Students who wish to prepare to study law should familthemselves with the entrance requirements of law schools
they are considering. A Pre-Law Advisory Committee drawn
from several Departments makes a continuing study of such
schools; its members will advise students in the choice of
courses. Most law schools will consider applications from students with widely varying majors, placing emphasis on a thoroughly cultivated mind rather than any specific body of knowliarize

edge.

Field Experience

Students in teacher education are required to engage in the
Field Experience during which they work in and
observe the educational process in a school of their choice. It is
intended that this experience will help the students decide before the Junior year whether they wish to follow careers in
teaching. Participants are exposed to many aspects of teaching
and to the operation of the whole school, thus providing experience that should increase the relevancy of course work in

Student Teaching
Pre-professional teacher education culminates in student

teaching for a semester in public F^hools of Pennsylvania.
Undergraduates who have satisfied the prerequisites for
student teaching courses are assigned to student teaching during
the first or second semester of their senior year. They are placed
according to the availability of qualified cooperating teachers in
their subject area and the willingness of schools with programs
approved by the College to cooperate with the College in its
program in teacher education. Students should be prepared to
accept assignments in any of the student teaching centers.

The student teaching semester

is

divided into

two equal

periods; this provides an opportunity for students to teach at

two grade

levels and frequently in two socio-economic environments.
Because of the constantly changing educational and socioeconomic scene, flexibility of format is maintained in the student teaching program.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION
Student Teaching Centers

The College

selects its student teaching centers

and coop-

erating teachers in urban, suburban, and rural areas. Students in

elementary education may be assigned to central Pennsylvania,
to suburban Philadelphia, or to certain inner -city locations. Students in secondary education may be assigned to teach in central
Pennsylvania, in suburban Philadelphia, or in the cities of Philadelphia and Harrisburg. Business education student teaching
centers are located in the Bloomsburg, Allentown, and Williamsport areas. Students in communication disorders and special
education are assigned to the White Haven State School, Selinsgrove State School, and to public schools and other agencies
located in southeastern Pennsylvania.
It may be possible for students in teacher education programs to be assigned to do their student teaching in one of the
centers abroad with which Bloomsburg cooperates: Quito,
Ecuador; Recife, Brazil; or Liverpool, England. Further information about this program may be obtained in the Office of

International Education.

The cost of a clinical year varies widely. At one time, students in clinical programs were customarily paid a stipend, but
only a very few schools have continued the practice. The
majority provide no stipend but offer free tuition. A few charge
tuition of $300 per year or more.
The candidate may choose

to satisfy either of two degrees
the degree, Bachelor of Science in Medical Technology (B.S. in Med. Tech.) is conferred upon successful completion of the prescribed course work, the certification to the
College of successful clinic experience, and the passing of the
examination of the Board of Registry of Medical Technologists;

A special program, available to selected students who were
unable to take the basic courses, permits them to enroll in the
advanced courses after completing a basic summer camp between the Sophomore and Junior years. Students who attend
the basic

summer camp

are paid at a rate equivalent to the basic

pay for a private together with travel allowance, subsistence,
housing, uniforms and medical care.
Students enrolled in the advanced courses receive subsistence pay of $100.00 a month for not to exceed ten months a
year. Successful completion of the advanced program requires
attendance at an advanced summer camp, normally scheduled
between the Junior and Senior years; payment during this camp
is at a rate equivalent to one-half of the basic pay for a Second
Lieutenant with less than two years of service together with a

The Air Force ROTC (AFROTC) provides a four-year program divided into the general military course (GMC) in the first
two years and the Professional Officer Course (POC) in the last
two years. A student may elect to enroll in either the total fouryear program or the POC. Students in the four-year program
take the GMC during the freshman and sophomore years and
the POC during the Junior and Senior years, attending four
weeks of field training during the summer between the Sophomore and Junior years.
Members of the program are eligible to compete for

AFROTC

Scholarships.

For acceptance into the POC, the four-year program student must pass a physical examination and an Officer Qualification Test and must have attained an acceptable academic rating.
To qualify for direct entrance in the two-year POC program, students must have two academic years remaining at
either the graduate or undergraduate level or a combination of
the two. They must meet the physical standards, pass an Officer
Qualification Test, have an acceptable academic rating and must
successfully complete a six week field training course. Transfer
students may elect the POC if they satisfy the above requirements.
Uniforms, equipment, and textbooks for the AFROTC
work are supplied by Wilkes College and the United States Air
Force. Students in the POC receive $100.00 per month subsistence allowance. In addition, a limited number of scholarships
are available to students in the program on a competitive basis.
Students who complete successfully the POC are commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the United States Air Force
Reserve. They serve on active duty in the Air Force in a specialty as close as feasible to their academic training and consistent

with Air Force needs.

GRADUATE STUDIES

DEGREES

11.1

Graduate study was inaugurated

in

1960 with programs

leading to the Master of Education degree planned for teachers
in service. In 1968, approval was granted to offer a program in
history to lead to the Master of Arts degree and in 1971 a program in biology to lead to the Master of Science degree. Addi-

programs to lead to the Master of Arts and Master of
Science degrees have been established; others are in preparation.
The objective of the programs for the degree, Master of
Education, is to develop mature, professional teachers. The objective of a Master of Arts program is to advance the student's
tional

scholarship in an academic discipline.

The

leading to the Master of Science degree

objective of programs
is

to develop mature

scholarship and competence, especially as these are related to
application.

SCHEDULE OF CLASSES

11.2

Graduate classes taught in the regular academic year are
usually scheduled in late afternoons, evenings and Saturdays in

order to provide opportunity for teachers and individuals engaged in other full-time occupations to further their education.
Graduate courses are offered for full-time students in the

summer

terms.
