History An academy "to teach youth the elements of a classical education" was established in Bloomsburg in fortunes until 1856 when 1 839. The academy continued with varied a charter was prepared and stock issued to reorganize it as the Bloomsburg Literary Institute. Institute Hall, later renamed Carver Hall after Henry Carver, an early principal, architect, and teacher, was erected in 1867. Today, the gold-domed, red-brick building is the university's landmark. Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, superintendent of public instruction, the Bloomsburg Literary Institute officially the Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Normal School became in 1869; it name and organization until 1916 when it was purchased by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and named continued under this Bloomsburg State Normal School. The emphasis at the Normal School changed during the early 1920s from secondary and college-preparatory courses for specialized teachers to full-time teacher education. In May 1927, the institutional name was changed to Bloomsburg State Teachers College, and the school was authorized to grant the Bachelor of Science in Education for teachers in elementary and secondary schools. Under the administration of President Francis B. Haas (1927- 4* Bloomsburg University 1939), great progress was a new made in the teacher education program, and degree program in business education was initiated.

Andruss, then dean of instruction and a the instruction, Dr. former director of the Business Education Department, was appointed president, a position he held until his retirement in War 1 969. During World Navy V-12 Officer Training Program was conducted on the Bloomsburg campus. As a result, a campus building was renamed Navy Hall. In 1957, a division of special education was instituted, and today, Navy Hall still houses that program. II, the U.S. Major expansion in facilities, faculty, and student body followed. Undergraduate full-time enrollment rose from 1,743 in 1960 to 6,184 undergraduates in 1992. In 1960, the institution's name was changed to Bloomsburg State College. Authorization soon followed to grant baccalaureate degrees for liberal arts programs in humanities, social sciences, and natural sci- ences/mathematics. Graduate study, leading to the Master of Education, was inaugurated. In 1968, approval was received for the Master of Arts, in 1970 for the Master of Science, in 1976 for the Master of Business Administration, and in 1982 for the Master of Science in Nursing. A cooperative doctoral program in elementary education began in 1982. Commonwealth legislation enacted on July 1, 1983, established the State System of Higher Education, and Bloomsburg State College became Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania. Bloomsburg's president, Dr. James H. McCormick, became the system's interim chancellor and later its first permanent chancellor.

Student off-campus residences are subject to periodic inspection by officials of the Town of Bloomsburg, and dwellings with four or more tenants must meet the standards of the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry. Although students must rely on their own initiative to find suitable accommodations, the Residence Life Office collects data on off-campus housing opportunities, prepares housing and landlord directories, and provides other useful information of interest to student tenants and their landlords. Before any rental property in the Town of Bloomsburg is accepted for listing in the university housing directory, the owner must submit the premises to an inspection by the town Code Enforcement Office and sign a statement pledging to provide equal opportunity in the rental of the property. Because the university does not assign students to off-campus resi- dences, negotiations are the sole responsibility of students and their landlords.

Programs in this area combine natural support, aid science and liberal arts education with clinical instruction. In general, students who complete any of the programs may enter their professions immediately. Others may select postgraduate education in health care. Central to most allied health programs, especially the clinical portion, is satisfactory completion of the clinical standards, often referred to as the Essentials. These standards establish requirements related to curriculum, personnel, financing, resources, and records. Program Description At Bloomsburg University the preparatory programs in physical therapy, occupational therapy, pharmacy, and cytotechnology usually span two to four years.

This agreement facilitates the transfer of students completed a minimum of two years preparatory work at Bloomsburg into upper-division baccalaureate and master's programs at Thomas Jefferson University. This "2 plus 2" or "2 plus 3" arrangement couples an educational experience at a rural university with advanced clinical training at a major medical center in Philadelphia. Although the "2 plus 2" arrangement remains in place for most allied health programs, the arrangement for physical therapy is "2 plus 3" is and culminates important to note that in a master's degree many from Thomas Jefferson University. It physical therapy programs are entered after the student has received a baccalaureate degree, and the postbaccalaureate program leads to a master's degree.

In contrast, the Bachelor of Arts program allows more freedom in choosing courses and enables students to gain a broad-based background in the natural sciences. This flexibility gives students the opportunity to tailor a program to their specific interests, backgrounds, and career objectives. Students pursuing either degree program may elect an option in microbiology. The required courses in microbiology specified under the option are identical for both programs of study. The marine science option, which is also open to majors in both bachelor's programs, provides students with the opportunity to specialize in marine biology while obtaining a general background in the biological sciences.

Mullen Janice Walters Virgie Bryan Goals and Objectives The Department of Developmental Instruction provides developmental, study skills courses and other supportive services that are intended to assist students in making the transition from high school to college. These courses and services help students to improve basic (reading, writing, mathematics) All students, regardless of their current academic . prior skills program or academic performance, may enroll in any courses offered by the department. The goal of developmental instruction is to assist in the successful performance of all smooth integration into the higher education process. The philosophy of Developmental Instruction is based on the principles of prevention of problems and dedication to meeting individual needs. This department offers a full range of academic, advisory, and counseling services to students. Services also are open to non-program students who wish to students and their take advantage of developmental reading, writing, or mathematics courses /labs conducted by faculty members and student tutors. Developmental reading assists students in increasing their vocabulary and comprehension skills. Grades earned in the two developmental reading courses are factored into a student's cumulative average, but do not accrue any semester hours toward graduation. Students not enrolled through diagnostic exam. or EOP may be recommended for a course based on the results of a The Department of Developmental Instruction offers a 3 semester hour Act 101 college level reading and study skills course and at times a 1 semester hour study both of which count towards graduation. The Reading Lab, located in skills course, Room 310 of Bakeless Center, offers individualized instruction in understanding textbooks and learning strategies for most courses on campus. Group instruction also is provided for selected courses based on student enrollment in the program. Workshops on test-taking strategies and mini-courses on speed reading are scheduled periodically. A developmental writing course is available to any university student as a primer to entering the required English courses. Students not enrolled through x^ct 101 or EOP may be recommended for this course based on results of a diagnostic exam These courses carry a grade, who do not need a full semester of an individualized instruction program through the University but credits do not count toward graduation. Students instruction may establish Writing Center, located in Room 206, Bakeless Center for the Humanities, or they may attend any one of the two-week mini-courses on special topics offered through the year.

Mendoza-Enright R. Ulloth Assistant Professor Professors Walter M. Brasch John Maittlen-Harris Dana R. Ulloth Degree Program Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communications A total of 33 to 41 semester hours is required for a major in mass communications. For information on the Bachelor of Science in Education which offers an area of specialization in communications/media, see the section on Secondary Education on page 176. Goals and Objectives The mass communications program is designed to balance the needs for broad knowledge of the liberal arts and natural sciences, professional preparation, and understanding of the critical and theoretical issues confronting people employed within the media. To achieve the first of these three goals, majors are expected to take at least 90 semester hours in the humanities and sciences. At least 87 semester hours must be outside the department spread widely among the other departments of the College of Arts and Sciences. Courses within the department fulfill the second two goals by representing a balance of professional preparation (e.g.,Newswriting, Broadcast Journalism, Public Relations Cases and Problems, practice and internships), and theoretical issues (e.g., Film History, Media Law, and Social Foundations of Mass Communications). Most core courses focus attention on the social, political, and legal issues that reporters, producers, managers, and technical personnel must confront. The professional foundation needed to function in the fast paced media environment. The track courses provide the internship experience in an appropriate off-campus site completes the professional training needed to enter the job market. Admission Requirements Admission to the mass communications program to the maximum is by application to the chair and is limited enrollment each semester that can be reasonably accommodated by departmental resources. Annual enrollment is limited to approximately 60 students who should have achieved a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or higher. Acceptance into the program depends, however, not only on the QPA, but also on past experience and potential. Students should exhibit strong writing, visual, and creative qualities and a record of interest and participation in media-related extracurricular activities. Some variations also occur to help balance the number of students seeking entrance to each of the three major tracks available in mass communications. Students are, therefore, encouraged to make a case for their admission in the light of previous experience even if they feel their QPAs may not alone justify admission. Students will be notified of their acceptance as mass communications majors as quickly as possible. Students are expected to have declared their majors no later than the time v they have accumulated approximately 72 semester hours. The major compulsory for in mass all specialties students a minimum of 15 communications consists of a number of core courses, which are students and a series of sequence or major track courses, depending to 21 on the The major consists of 15 semester hours in core subjects and hours in specialty sequence subjects.

Students who wish to become mass communications majors must file a specific application with the department chairperson, submit with this application a copy of their latest tran- which of the major sequences they propose to study, and present a portfolio of writing or production samples in one of the mass communications areas. Note: This selection is not binding and may be changed. Students are advised to discuss scripts, indicate the study tracks with their advisers to assure that course selections will count toward their final objectives. Required Courses Required courses in mass communications include: 27.230, 27.310, 27.315, 27.320, and 27.415, and either Mass Communications Technologies, a research course, or a statistics course selected from outside the department. Major Tracks Students also must select a major sequence track from one of the following: journalism, public relations/advertising, or telecommunications. Students sequence, and all may also take courses for a second mass communications majors are advised to study several courses in an area other than their major sequence.

Goals and Objectives The primary objective of the mathematics program is to provide a thorough background in The curriculum and and promote critical thinking and problem solving skills and the articulation of mathematical ideas. The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers three baccalaureate degree programs: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, and Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (See section on Computer Science on page 156). The department also offers a minor in computer science, one in statistics, and another in mathematics. The course sequence in all of the degree programs in mathematics is essentially the same through the first two years. The bachelor of arts program in mathematics offers a more flexible curriculum designed to accommodate varied career objectives while the bachelor of science program is specifically applications-oriented with more required courses in mathematical analysis and science. In the bachelor of science program, students select an area of concentration in their junior year to develop proficiency in an area of applied mathematics. Many students choose a joint program in mathematics and computer science, mathematics and statistics or mathematics and an area of business or physical sciences. A student majoring in education who chooses an area of concentration in mathematics essentially follows the bachelor of arts program in mathematics. The department strongly supports the implementation of mathematical and statistical software throughout all the mathematical programs Students who complete a degree program in mathematics are prepared to continue their studies of mathematics on the graduate level or to enter industry in an area where mathematics is used. For admission to the major in mathematics, a student should have a thorough preparation in high school mathematics. Students who complete the Advanced Placement Examination both the theoretical and real world applications of mathematics. instructional strategies are designed to encourage with a score of 3 or higher may earn university credit Analysis I. for the first calculus course, 53.125 248 • Mathematics General Education Courses Advisement should be considered before selecting General Education courses in this major.

Goals and Objectives The programs in allied health sciences encompass those health areas in which individuals and increase the efficiency and effectiveness of other health professionals by becoming a contributing member of a health care team. Programs in this area combine natural science and liberal arts education with clinical instruction. In general, students who complete any of the programs may enter their professions immediately. Others may select postgraduate education in health care. Central to most allied health programs, especially the clinical portion, is satisfactory completion of the clinical standards, often referred to as the Essentials. These standards establish requirements related to curriculum, personnel, financing, resources, and records. support, aid, Program of Study The medical technology program consists of a minimum of 96 semester hours of coursework prescribed by the university, followed by one calendar year of clinical education in a medical technology program accredited nationally by the Committee on Allied Health Education and Accreditation (CAHEA) tional Accrediting of the Agency American Medical Association for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (AMA) through the Na- (NAACLS). Students enrolling in the curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Science will be admitted under the same policy governing other applicants to Bloomsburg University. These require- ments may be found under the section on Admission beginning on page 30 and Readmission on is offered by the page 34- Assistance with the admission application to the clinical year phase university, but admission to that phase, as well as fees, where the clinical work is done. The is determined solely by the institution university cannot guarantee that a student will be accepted for the clinical education portion of the program. In general, students with the highest academic achievement, who interview well, and have a history of volunteer work are given priority. Students who successfully complete all of the requirements and the clinical year earn a Bachelor of Science degree. All clinical year graduates become eligible to take the two certification examinations for medical technologists. both of these examinations, the student is Upon successfully completing one or awarded a certificate of registry and the designation Medical Technologist (M.T.) (ASCP) or Clinical Laboratory Scientists (C.L.S.) (NCA). A student who fails to gain admission to a clinical program at the end of the junior year (3+1 program) or wishes to complete a degree prior to entering the clinical experience may remain at the university and complete the requirements for a baccalaureate degree. Ordinarily, a student can complete the degree requirements for a Bachelor of Arts in biology in one Medical Technology • 255 additional year; other curricula may demand more Many time. technology program select an option in microbiology.
