In addition to 64 undergraduate degree programs and one associate degree program, Bloomsburg offers 18 master's degrees in select academic disciplines and a doctoral program in elementary education in cooperation with Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Bloomsburg University, which offers cur- ricula in liberal arts, business, nursing, allied health sciences, and teacher education, has more than 7,500 students. The university is organized as three colleges (Arts and Sciences, Business, and Professional Studies) and two schools (Graduate Studies and Extended Programs). The scope and internal structure of each college is described in the succeeding chapter of this catalog. The home of Bloomsburg University is its namesake, the Town of Bloomsburg, the county seat of Columbia County, Pa. The industrial, trading, and residential community of nearly 12,000 is located 80 miles northeast of Harrisburg and is within two miles of two inter- changes off Interstate 80. Bloomsburg is served by Greyhound and Continental Trailways bus lines. Commercial airports in the Scran to n/Wilkes-Barre area and in Williamsport are approximately an hour's drive from the university. History An academy "to teach youth the elements of a classical education" was established in The academy continued varied fortunes until 1856 when a charter Bloomsburg with in 1839. was prepared and stock issued to reorganize it Bloomsburg Literary Institute. Institute renamed Carver Hall after Henry Carver, an early principal, architect, and teachas the Hall, later was erected in 1867. Today, the gold-domed, red-brick building is the university's landmark. er, Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, superintendent of public instruction, the Bloomsburg Literary Institute officially became the 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 of Pennsylvania and named 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. May In 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 teachelementary and secondary schools. Under the administration of President ers in Francis B. Haas (1927-1939), great progress was made in the teacher education program, and new degree program in business education a was initiated. Upon the naming 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. Dur- ing World War II, the U.S. 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. Major expansion in facilities, faculty, and student body followed. Undergraduate fulltime 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 programs in humanities, social and natural sciences/mathematics. for liberal arts sciences, 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. ) 13 The following have served as presidents of Bloomsburg University: Henry Carver (1866-1871) Charles B.

Student Teaching Teacher education culminates in student teaching. Having satisfied the prerequisites for student teaching courses, undergraduates are assigned to positions in public or private schools for the first or second semester of their senior year. They are placed based on the availability of qualified cooperating teachers in their subject area and the willingness of schools with programs approved by the university. Students should be prepared to accept assignments in any of the student teaching centers. A student teaching semester is divided into two equal periods so that students may teach at two grade levels and frequently in two socioeconomic environments. Because of constantly changing educational and socioeconomic circumstances, flexibility of format is maintained in the student teaching program. Student Teaching Centers Student teaching centers and cooperating teachers are drawn from urban, suburban, and rural areas. Students in early childhood, ele- mentary and secondary education may be assigned to Central Pennsylvania, to suburban Philadelphia, or to inner-city locations. Business education student teaching centers are located in the Bloomsburg, Allentown, and Williamsport areas. Student may arrange their student teaching assignment in one of the international centers with which Bloomsburg cooperates, for example, in Liverpool or London, England. Information about this program may be obtained from department chairpersons. Cooperating Teachers and Clinicians Cooperating teachers and clinicians are selected by faculty in teacher education based on criteria set forth by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. These parameters are: I. At least three years of teaching and Schools experience, one year of which has been in the district to which the teacher candidate is assigned; 2. A teaching assignment appropriate to the subject competency of the teacher candidate; 3. Completion of a program of preparation on observation and evaluation skills developed by the college or university for the cooperating teacher. Training at the university is achieved through the following means: 1. Individualized training; 2. Use of student teaching and clinical manual; 3. 4. Providing research and reading materials to cooperating teachers and clinicians on a regular basis; Consortiums (cooperating teachers/ clinicians are invited to a yearly meeting); 5.

M. Christine Alichnie, chairperson Accreditation Degree and Licensure The nursing program at Bloomsburg University provides learning opportunities in nursing and related disciplines which enable students to attain attitudes, knowledge, and skills essential to the role development of a beginning practitioner. The baccalaureate program culminates in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and qualifies its graduates to sit for the licensure examination administered by state boards of nursing which establishes them as registered nurses. The nursing program at Bloomsburg is not only a conduit for further education but also for lifelong learning activities. In accordance with the Professional Nursing Law (PL. 317, No. 69, Jan. 1, 1986) a felonious act prohibits a person from obtaining licensure in Pennsylvania. In compliance with this legislation, the following guidelines are enforced by The Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing. A license or certificate shall not be issued to an applicant who has been: 1.

Colleges 25 and Schools Academic Good Standing Policy Students in the baccalaureate nursing program must abide by both the university's academic good standing and retention poUcies and the academic good standing poHcy of the Department of Nursing. To progress and be retained in the nursing program, the student must: 1. Attain a grade of C or better in: a. Prerequisite natural science courses: Anatomy and Physiology I, Anatomy and Physiology II, Introductory Chemistry, Physiological Chemistry, and Introductory Microbiology b.

All Code 82 nursing courses 2. Obtain a cumulative QPA of 2.50 (after 3032 semester hours) to enroll in nursing courses in the sophomore year. A student who does not meet the identified requirements for departmental academic good standing is required to satisfy the identified deficiencies by repeating the course before further progress in the nursing program can be attempted. A student may repeat nursing courses only once. The university policy on the repetition of academic courses applies to the Department of Nursing. The department reserves the right and the responsibility to develop procedural guidelines for the implementation of this academic good standing policy. Recommendations concerning academic progression and retention are made to the Department of Nursing chairperson by the Student Admission, Progression, and Retention Committee. Based on these recommendations, students who do not attain academic good standing after one academic period on probation will be required to take a departmental leave of absence. Departmental Academic Probation Students who fail to meet the requirements of the policy for departmental academic good standing are evaluated by the Committee on Student Admission, Progression, and Retention and are immediately placed on departmental academic probation. The department chairperson is responsible for notifying students who have been placed on probationary status. Students must satisfy any identified academic deficiencies by repeating the course (s) before they can attempt any further progress in the nursing program. Nursing courses may only be repeated once. University' policy that pertains to the repetition of academic courses applies to the Department of Nursing. A student who does not attain academic good standing after one academic period on probation will be required to take a departmental academic leave of absence. Departmental Academic Leave of Absence A student who does not maintain departmental good standing requirements after one semester on probation or a total of three semesters on probation is automatically required to take a leave of absence from the department. The department chairperson notifies students of such actions. A student on a departmental academic leave of absence is ineligible to attend any course offered by the Department of Nursing. When on departmental academic leave, a position will be guaranteed for the student for no more than one calendar year. If at the end of one calendar year the student is not ready to return from departmental academic leave of absence, that student will be considered to be withdrawn from the program. A student seeking reinstatement from a departmental academic leave of absence must do so in accordance with the departmental transfer policy. Statute of Time Limitation Once a student has begun 82. 82. the first required departmental course, all required departmental courses must be complet- ed within five calendar years. Departmental Retention Because of the nature of nursing, the nursing faculty reserves the right to counsel, suspend or dismiss those students who, in their judgement, do not satisfy the requirements of scholarship, health and personal suitability for nursing and licensure.

Act 101 and Educational Opportunity Programs These programs equalize educational opportunity for students regardless of their economic background or status. Anyone with a secondary school diploma or certificate of equivalency is eligible to apply for admission to these programs. Nontraditional criteria are applied in estimating the potential success of an applicant when it appears that the environmental background may have adversely affected grades and/or standardized test scores. The Director of Admissions may require an applicant for these programs to file supplementary information as needed for proper consideration. Most new students are expected to particisummer program prior to the first semester of their attendance, where special assistance in tutoring and counseling is given to address specific academic, financial, and social needs. Permission to be exempted from this requirement can only be granted by the pate in a director of these programs. Send inquiries to the Director of ACT 101/ EOP or the Director of Admissions.

Students interested in early admission should arrange an interview with the Director of Admissions. University Scholars The Program provides a special academic experience for a preselected group of freshmen and sophomores. The program offers challenge for students who have distinguished themselves educationally, have superior intellectual ability, set high standards for themselves, and who plan to seriously pursue a quality college education. The scholars curriculum fosters the growth of intellectual independence, creativity, and initiative; enhance analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities; augment interpretative abilities and communication skills; and develop a sense of "common bonding." Students get a variety of courses and course designs including symposia, forums, independent and experiential study that require extensive reading, writing, and in-depth study and research. The scholars courses are taught study, by university faculty designated because of distinguished scholarship, outstanding perfor- mance as teachers, and ability to relate to stu- dents. The scholars program requires the completion of 24 semester hours of general education credit in designated scholars courses within the two academic years. The remainder of courses in these years is selected from regular course offerings to satisfy major, minor, and other general education requirements. Scholars courses, while they satisfy general education requirements, are specially designed to emphasize the integration of interdisciplinary knowledge, concepts, and skills. Although university scholars have many special programs and services, they also are fully integrated into the mainstream of the campus community to enjoy the same dimensions of university life that other students experience including residence hall living, a wide array of cultural activities, campus leadership opportunities, sports events, and other co-curricular programs. Scholars program eligibility is based upon high school achievement, a ranking in the top 20 percent of the graduation class, and above average standarized test results. Once eligible, high school seniors or graduates are selected on the basis of their application, essay, reference letters, and interview. Although high academic achievement provides eligibility, per- first and extracurricular in- in the selection pro- cess.

At the end of the sophomore year, students can apply to the upper-level honors program in their major discipline to continue in enhanced academic programs during their final two years. Transfer Students An applicant who previously attended or at the time of application is enrolled in another college or university is a transfer applicant. Transfer admission occurs three times during the year: fall, spring and summer. Applications for the fall semester and summer sessions should be complete and on file in the Admissions Office prior to March 15. Applications for the spring semester must be complete and on file by Oct. 15. Nursing candidates for the fall semester must have completed applications on file by January 15 and by September 1 for Spring admission. Requirements necessary to make a file complete for a transfer candidate include: an official secondary school transcript or a GED (General Equivalency Diploma); official tranfrom all postsecondary schools attend- scripts ed; and the $25 application fee. Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT) results must be submitted if the applicant has not completed 24 or more credits at a postsecondary institution. Official college transcripts from each school attended should be sent to the Director of Admissions regardless of whether or not credit was earned at the other institution (s). A transfer student may be considered for admission if certified as holding good stand- ing academically and otherwise in the college attended and having an overall Quality Point Average (QPA) of 2.0 or better on a 4.0 system. The degree programs in adult health, nursing or education require students to have a last 32 minimum cumulative QPA of 2.50 for entrance to the major. Transfer applicants who have completed 30 semester hours at an institution of higher education must select a major upon entering the university. They may not enter as undeclared majors. Credits are deemed transferable if earned with a grade of C (2.0/4.0) or above at an institution that is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools/Commission on Higher Education or its regional equivalent providing Bloomsburg University has equivalent courses. Students are informed of the tentative number of credits that may be transferred in their offer of admission letter. Official transfer evaluations are completed after the student pays the advanced deposits. These transfer credit evaluations are then reviewed by the department chairperson who renders final approval of the evaluation. A maximum of 64 credits may be transferred from an regionally-accredited two-year college. Review of transfer applications is done on a rolling basis, v^dth the exception of nursing applicants whose files are reviewed by the Student Admission, Progression, and Retention Committee of the School of Health Sciences. An orientation for transfer students is held prior to their enrollment. Students are notified by the Orientation Office concerning specific information. Readmission Students failing to register for the next semester must apply for readmission. Nondegree students may continue to register without readmission provided their next registration is within four semesters of their last enrollment. It is suggested that students apply early for readmission. Readmitted students are responsible for the graduation requirements and academic policies that exist at the time of their reentrance. The Director of Admissions may require an applicant for readmission to file a letter containing such supplementary information as is needed for proper consideration. Students under academic dismissal are ineligible for readmission for one calendar year. They should present evidence of successful achievement at another college or university as part of their application for readmission. Readmitted students who were formally dismissed for academic deficiency have two final grading periods in which to regain minimum academic progress or good standing. If dis- Admission missed the second time, these students may not attend the university for additional degree or nondegree credit study. Temporary Withdrawal/ Leave of Absence A student may request a temporary with- drawal for a specified period by securing the appropriate forms at the Office of the Registrar. To be eligible for a temporary withdrawal, the student must submit completed forms to the Office of Admissions for processing. A student must be in academic good standing or making minimal progress toward good standing and must request the temporary withdrawal prior to the registration date of the intended period of absence. A student on a temporary withdrawal is assured a place in the semester designated for return provided the instructions that are part of the temporary withdrawal agreement are fulfilled, and advance deposits are submitted at the time designated by the Director of Admissions. A student who returns from a temporary withdrawal of a calendar year or less in duration is responsible for the graduation requirements and academic policies that applied at the time the temporary withdrawal was requested. A student who returns from a temporary withdrawal of more than one calendar year duration must satisfy the graduation requirements and academic policies which exist at the time of return and is then classified as a readmitted student. Second Baccalaureate Degree Application materials and instructions for obtaining a second bachelor's degree at Bloomsburg University may be secured from the Office of Admissions. There is an application fee of $25. To qualify, an applicant must hold a bachelor's degree from an regionallyaccredited college or university. This second degree track requires a student to earn a minimum of 30 semester hours in undergraduate courses while in residence at the university. All curriculum requirements for the second degree must be satisfied and free elective credit taken, if necessary, to complete the minimum of 30 semester hours. If there is a replication of a required course (s) in the two baccalaureate programs, the course (s) cannot be applied as part of the 30-semester-hour requirement for completion of the second degree. The applicant must provide the department i I 33 Financial Aid chairperson from the discipHne they wish to pursue, with a copy of their official college transcript and a second degree application form. Pending a favorable review of the applicant's academic credentials, the chairperson signs the application and forwards it and the official transcript to the Admissions Office. International Students Residents of foreign countries should iniapplication well in advance of the semester they plan to enroll. Non-U.S. citizens who are not resident aliens need to submit a special application for international students. This application may be obtained by writing the Director of Admissions. Students whose native language is other than English are required to submit the results of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) administered by the Educational Testing Service in Princeton, N.J. The minimum acceptable TOEFL score is 500. Those students who fail to earn a score of 500 are urged to investigate enrolling in the English as a Second Language course (ESL) that is offered at the university. Upon completion of the ESL program, the minimum QPA acceptable to supplement a TOEFL score of under 500 is a 2.5. Certificates of educational training should be accompanied by certified translations if they are presented in a language other than English. Supplement credentials with brief course descriptions of subjects successfully completed. International transfer students must submit their credentials to an outside evaluation agency for course-by-course transfer evaluations. Instructions are given on the international stutiate their dent application. Students must submit a notarized financial statement that would indicate their ability to finance their educational and living expenses for the duration of their college career. Due to financial limitations, students who are unable to provide for their educational and living expenses will not be offered admission to Bloomsburg University. Campus Visits Group information sessions are held regularly on campus. Arrangements can be made to attend a group information session by con- tacting the Office of Admissions at (717) 389- 4316. The campus Visitors Center is located in the lobby of Waller Administration Building and is open weekdays, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and weekends, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Four Saturday open house programs are held in October, November, February and April in Mitrani Hall, Haas Center for the Arts, beginning at 9:30 a.m. Open House programs consist of a general meeting with admissions staff and administrative personnel, a questionand-answer session, a campus tour, lunch (at a nominal cost) and meetings with faculty from various academic departments. Participation in an open house day may be more meaningful than a group information session because prospective students have the opportunity to meet directiy with members of the university , faculty. Off-campus Visits Each year, representatives from the Office of Admissions visit secondary schools and community colleges throughout Pennsylvania and in neighboring states. They also participate in approximately 100 college night/ career day programs including National College Fair pro- grams in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and New Prospective applicants should check with their school or community college counselors to learn if a Bloomsburg University admissions representative will visit their institution or a nearby college night program. Jersey. Financial Aid Many programs are available Bloomsburg University. These include scholarships, grants, loans and student employment. Undergraduate, graduate, part-time and transfer students from every income bracket may be eligible for some type of financial aid student employment, grants, scholarships or low-interest loans. By evaluating the financial aid sources and developing a sound financial plan, each student will have the monetary resources needed while minimizing potential financial aid to students at — debt burden. Commonly used terms The Hnancial aid package is composed of a combination of a grant, a loan and/or campus work study. Students receive an award letter that outiines the types of financial aid which they will receive for the following year. Financial need is the difference between the cost of attending college and the amount the needs analysis service calculates that a family can contribute to the cost of the student's education. 34 Financial Aid Student expense budget is the total cost of attending college and is used to determine each student's financial need. It depends upon whether students live at home, in a campus residence hall or off campus. Grants are financial aici awards that students do not have to repay. PHEAA (Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency) administers grant and loan programs to residents of Pennsylvania. Pell Grants are federal grants of approximately $200 to $2,340. They are not repaid. Scholarships are grants awarded on the basis of grades or other achievements rather than financial need. Supplemental Educational Opp rtunity Grants (SEOG) provides federal aid to students who demonstrate an exceptional financial need. It supplements other forms of financial aid, and it is not repaid. Loans are a form of financial aid that students must repay. Lenders are participating commercial banks, federal and state savings and loan associations or credit unions that loan money to students. PHEAA is also considered a lender. Student loans in states other than Pennsylvania are made by similar institutions. Interest is the annual fee charged for using loan money. A Perkins Loan is made at a 5 percent annual interest rate. There are no interest charges while the student is in college. Stafford Loans must be repaid, and they carry a 7-9 percent interest rate. An origination fee and insurance premium of approximately 4 percent are deducted from the total amount of each loan to help defray some of the interest the federal government pays during the student's undergraduate years. Work-study awards are an authorization to work but do not guarantee employment. Stu- dents are responsible for finding their own campus jobs. The Financial Aid Office maintains a "placement" bulletin board outside Room 19, Ben Franklin Hall where available jobs are posted. Students must reapply each academic year/summer to renew their employment. Stafford Loans Amount Undergraduate First year (frestiman - 31 credits) Second year (soptiomore year (junior - Fourth year (senior year (baccalaureate not completed) $5,500 $8,500 (eacti year) Aggregate Loan Limits Undergraduate $23,000 $65,500* Graduate 'includes undergraduate borrowings Financial Need must demonstrate "financial from "needbased" programs but do not necessarily have to be from a low-income family. "Need" is the difference between the cost of attending Bloomsburg University and what the student and/or family can contribute as calculated by a financial aid formula that is approved by the U.S. Department of Education. When estimating how much students and their families may be able to contribute, a need analysis considers the student's and family's income and assets, including savings; the student's and family's ages and need for retireStudents need" to qualify for assistance ment income; the number of children er dependents in the household; or oth- and the num- ber of family members in college. Students are expected to contribute something from their savings and earnings. The refund policy for students who financial aid has been established receive in accor- dance with regulations governing the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, PHEAA and the Title IV Financial Aid Pro- grams. Students who leave the university during the semester are urged to review the re- fund policy. Transfer students must submit to the Financial Aid Office an official Financial Aid Transcript that documents their financial aid record at all previous institutions attended. Financial aid does not automatically follow students when they transfer from one college to another, and no aid will be processed until this in- formation is received. Graduate students may apply for graduate assistantships that are offered each academic term. Qualified, full-time graduate students receive a waiver of tuition as well as payment of a stipend.

However, no student may have a State or College Work-Study job on campus and a graduate assistantship at the same time. Non-degree students who are enrolled in non-degree certificate programs that exceed 24 credits in length may be eligible for financial aid. Application procedures are the same as those for degree students. Non-degree students who are not enrolled in a certificate program that exceeds 24 credits in length are ineligible for aid. In addition to the costs for tuition, fees, students will incur costs for books, supplies, transportation, personal and room and board, miscellaneous expenses. Bloomsburg University expects that these annual expenses will be approximately $2,200. These estimated costs for 1994-1995 are subject to change without notice and are dependent upon the action of the Board of Governors of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education and the Bloomsburg University Council of Trustees. Eligibility All applicants for financial aid at Blooms- burg University must submit either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid or the Federal Renewal Application. Some students also wdll be requested to complete the PHEAA Status Notice, which will be mailed to the student by PHEAA. Eligibility for all financial aid programs at Bloomsburg is determined on the basis of the information submitted on these forms. There is no fee to process these applications. Students must either submit verification that they have registered with the Selective Service Commission or sign a statement certifying that they are not required to register. Students must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States. Students in the United States on Fl or F2 student visas are not eligible for federal aid. Satisfactory progress must be maintained by students to remain eligible for financial aid. Students are urged to become familiar with the university's satisfactory progress policy. all Satisfactory Progress Students must earn at least 24 credits in a 12-month period with a required grade point average. Summer freshmen, who are enrolled for less than 12 credits during the summer, are required to earn 21 credits during their freshman year. Students enrolled full-time for only one semester are expected to earn at least 12 credits. Part-time students and graduate students must earn credit hours as follows: • 1 to 8 credit hours half of all the credit hours attempted must be earned or • 9 or more credit hours two-thirds of all credit hours attempted must be earned. Students must also meet the qualitative measures of progress shown in the chart below. Students are urged to review the withdrawal and repeat policies. Exceeding the maximum number of allowable repeats and/or withdrawals will adversely affect the student's ability to meet satisfactory progress standards for financial aid purposes. — — Qualitative Measures of Progress Total semester hours earned including grades of "P" and transfer credits 1-16 17-32 33-48 49-64 65 or more Cumulative quality point average required for minimal progress 1.25-1.99 1.65-1.99 1.85-1.99 1.95-1.99 2.00 An incomplete grade, a failing grade, or a withdrawal from a course will count as zero credits earned. Course repeat grades v«ll only be counted toward the minimum satisfactory progress standard if credits were actually earned. A repeat of a "D" grade will not be counted as credits earned in two different semesters. Students are expected to complete their degree or certificate within a maximum time frame that is no longer than 150 percent of the published length of the program. For example, a full-time undergraduate student who is enrolled in a program that would normally take eight semesters to complete would be required to complete the program within 1 2 semesters unless extraordinary circumstances exist. The total semesters for completion of a program of study for a part-time student will be extended proportionally. Students enrolled in a non-degree program must also meet satisfactory progress standards to obtain financial aid in subsequent semes- ters.

Students are eligible to apply for this federal program if they have been accepted or are currendy enrolled as full-time degree students. Grants range from $200 to $1,000. To apply for these grants, students must complete either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid or the Federal Renewal Application and submit it to PHEAA no later than Aid. The Financial Aid Office monitors satisfac- tory progress each semester. Students are notified that aid is being canceled if the number of credits earned during the fall, spring and summer semesters does not meet satisfactory progress requirements. Students who have been academically dismissed for at least one year will be considered making satisfactory progress for financial aid purposes upon their reinstatement to the university. Any Bloomsburg student whose aid has financial been canceled because of unsatisfacto- ry progress may appeal this decision in writing to the Director of Financial Aid.

Non-PHEAA out-of-state borrowers may telephone the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-433-3243 with any questions about the Stafford Loan or any other form of federal student aid. Perkins Loan recipients must demonstrate a financial need and be enrolled or accepted as degree students. These federal loans range from $200 to $2,000 per academic year and are usually packaged with other forms of aid, such as grants and work study. Students who are interested in a Perkins Loan for the summer and who have submitted either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid or the Federal Renewal Application, should schedule an appointment between March 16 and April 22 with the university's Director of Financial Aid. A Perkins Loan carries a 5 percent simple interest. Repayment starts nine months after students conclude their education. There are provisions whereby students may be eligible to have the loan canceled over a five-year period; i.e., students who work with the disabled individuals or within a geographic area that is classified by the U.S. Department of Education as a poverty area. Students must submit either the Free Ap>plication for Federal Student Aid or the Federal Renewal Application to PHEAA no later than March 15. Stafford Loans combine two loans: the subsidized Stafford Loan and the unsubsidized Stafford Loan. An subsidized Stafford Loan is one on which the federal government pays the interest while the student (borrower) is in college. Eligibility for a subsidized Stafford Loan is based on family income and financial need established by standards set by the federal government. A unsubsidized Stafford Loan is one on which the student (borrower) is responsible for payment of the interest during the in-college period. Students can apply for a Stafford Loan from a participating lender in or near their home community at least 60 days before the date the funds will be needed. Application for loans can be made any time of PHEIAA or from Interest rates able. theii lenders to receive current information Loan on interest rates. In addition to the interest charges, students must pay an "origination fee" and "insurance premium" of approximately 4 percent of the amount of the loan. The lender deducts this amount from the value of the loan. Repayment begins when students either graduate, withdraw or enroll less than half-time (5 credits or less) and have used the allowable grace period - usually six consecutive months. The monthly repayment amount is set by mutual agreement of the lender and the student. However, the monthly payment amount must be large enough to pay the full loan debt within the 10-year repayment limit. The required minimum monthly payment is $50. Many students will have payments of more than $50 per month; others will repay their loan before the 10-year limit. Persons who borrow money through a loan program assume responsibility for repaying the loan and must notify the lender immediately if circumstances arise that make it difficult to meet this commitment. Students and their families are entitled to receive a copy of the completed promissory note from the lender. They may also pay the balance of the loan, plus any interest due, early and without a penalty. Repayment may be deferred up to three years while on active duty with the Peace Corps, or in comparable volunteer programs. Deferments are considered for attendance in "approved" vocational rehabilitation programs, professional internships and disability of the student or a spouse in certain circumstances. During such deferments, the federal government continues interest payments if the loan previously qualified for interest subsidy benefits. Students are obligated to repay the full amount of the loan even if they do not graduate. If, when repayment begins, students are unable to meet the repayment schedule, i.e., inability to find employment, they may apply to the lender for forbearance to stop payments temporarily or to make smaller payments than scheduled. Persons borrowing must notify the lender when any of the following conditions arise be- 41 Financial Aid fore the loan is repaid: graduation, withdrawal from college, attendance is less than half- time (5 credits or less), change of name or address, transfer to another school or other changes that may affect students' eligibility for deferred payments. The Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) is available to parents of dependent undergraduate students who want to borrow funds to help pay for educational costs. The maximum amount parents may borrow is the difference between cost minus other aid. Interest rates vary but will not exceed 9 percent. Repayment of both the principal and the interest begins within 60 days after the disbursement of the loan. Parents can acquire the appropriate loan applications from their local lending institutions.

A major field of study is one of the approved degree programs prescribed by the major department or the college in which the student is enrolled. The specific course requirements for the options within each of the degree programs leading to the degrees are described in the catalog. Minor — A minor field of study consists of of 18 hours, at least 15 of which must be in the department offering the minor. While courses counting toward a minor may also fulfill general education or career concentration requirements, minor courses may not be in a student's major discipline and/or certification area. A minor offered in an academic discipline may have multiple advisement options. A student may choose to pursue minors in more than one academic discipline. Career Concentration Career concentra- a minimum — tions are multidisciplinary advisement pro- grams to help students select courses to develop appropriate skills and knowledge to prepare for entry and mobility in specific professions or careers.

A student may not petition for an examina-anor in a course which a grade has been recorded. tion in a course audited, fro 1 Academic Policies 49 A student must present evidence of equivalent experience if the course involves labora- tory or studio work. The student's petition must be approved in sequence by the department chairperson and the dean of the college. An examination committee must be appointed by the department chairperson and approved by the dean of the college. Unless the 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 key- boarding or use of applications software, is a course requirement, the written and oral aspects must be supplemented by a demonstration of skill. A copy of the completed approval form must be placed in the student's advisement file and the original forwarded to the Office of the Registrar. A fee is charged for courses challenged by institutional examination taken for credit, regardless of the number of credits awarded for Upon receipt of approval, this fee payable at the university Business Office. Evidence of payment must be presented to the department before the examination can be administered. If the student passes the examination, the grade of "P" is assigned for the course. If he/ she fails, no record is made. This course does not count in the student's normal quota of passthat course. is courses. Suitable adaptations of the above procedures may be used to validate transfer courses fail 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 institu- tion or, in case the student wishes to establish equivalency with courses in this university, the syllabi of courses offered in this in- upon stitution. The university recognizes two external examination programs: the College Level ExamProgram (CLEP) and the Advanced Placement Program (AP) of the College Board. Credit by AP Examinatioiis The university will award credit for AP Exams upon re- ination — ceipt of verification of a score of 3, 4 or 5 by the Office of the Registrar. Credit by CLEP Examinations — The uni- versity will upon award credit for CLEP Examinations receipt and verification of a score at or above the 50th percentile by the Office of the Registrar. Minimum scores for awarding credit and the amount of the credit granted can be secured from the Office of the Registrar. CLEP General Examinations must be taken before matriculating to Bloomsburg University. CLEP Subject Examinations may be taken anytime prior to graduation. Acceptance of credit for certain CLEP Examinations is subject to departmental approval. Credit for Military Experience Bloomsburg University may award credit for educational experiences of students earned while serving in the armed forces of the United States. The registrar makes a recommendation to the departmental chairperson of the student's major based upon the American Council on Education's Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Forces. Recommendations are made provided the credit applies to the student's degree program. The final decision for granting credit resides with the departmental chairperson. — The university will transfer two credits in 05100 Physical Fitness for completing basic training in the armed forces of the United States. Graduate Courses in the Senior Year Seniors needing fewer than 18 semester hours of coursework to satisfy requirements for a baccalaureate degree may, with approval of a department chairperson, apply to the assistant vice president for graduate studies and research in the School of Graduate Studies for permission to supplement undergraduate courses with graduate courses.

A student will be afforded reasonable assistance by a faculty member when coursework is missed for such reasons as: • Personal illness, • Death or critical illness in the immediate family, • Participation in a university-sponsored In the latter instance, mutually satisfactory arrangements for assistance must be made by the student when the activity is announced. The instructor is not required to provide cocurricular activity. 50 Academic Policies make-up examinations or to review class work missed as a result of iniauthorized absences. A faculty member with departmental approval may adopt a reasonable, alternative policy if class members are provided that policy in writing dining the first week of classes. Student Course Requirements and Progress Information Within the first week of classes each semesteaching faculty must distribute in writing at least the following information: procedures for determining each letter grade, any relationship of class attendance to the course, any other course requirements, weighted average of requirements for grade computation, and procedures for making up tests or other work missed through excused absence. Faculty may post student grades providing a student has given written permission; the grades must not identify the student. Using social security numbers or parts of social security numbers is illegal. If grades are posted, each student should be given unique identifier which is not consistent to student names listter, ed in alphabetical order. At any time during the semester, teaching faculty shall be prepared to inform students of their academic progress should the student request this. At the end of a semester or summer term, the final grade of each course is recorded on the student's permanent record; a copy of the semester grades is sent to the student at his/ her home address or another address designated by the student. Recording Grades At the end of a semester or summer session, the final grade for each course is recorded on the student's permanent record; a copy of the semester's grades is sent to the student's home address or another address designated by the student. Midsemester grades of D and E are reported to degree students with 32 and fewer semester hours earned. These grades are not permanendy recorded.

I Incomplete is a temporary grade given only when an instructor believes a student has been unable to complete course requirements due to circumstances beyond his/her control. Failure of a student to take the final examination or complete other course requirements without prior arrangement with the instructor for a legitimate excuse is not justification for a grade of I. When an instructor submits a grade of I to the registrar, it must be accompanied by a formal, written plan for the student to complete the course requirements and the appropriate letter grade that would be assigned if the plan were not completed by the student in the time specified. The plan for the student to complete the course requirements shall be prepared by the instructor with the acceptance of the student. Unless specifically stated in the written plan to the contrary, it is assumed that work will be completed prior to the end of the next regular semester. When the plan has been completed by the student, the instructor will recalculate the grade to be assigned for the course and submit this new grade to the registrar according to established procedures. A request for an extension of time to complete course requirements must be initiated by the student prior to the deadline of the plan on file in the Office of the Registrar. The student must present suitable documentation to the instructor indicating that circumstances above and beyond her/his control persist or new circumstances of that nature have developed. An extension of time will be granted only upon approval of the instructor and the dean of the appropriate college. P Passed.

The grade of P also is recorded when a course is passed by proficiency examination and when a student receives a passing grade in a noncredit course or cocurricular activity such as musical ensembles, theater and forensics. — F Failed 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 E. The grade of F also is recorded when a student receives a failing grade in a noncredit course for a cocurricular activity. Research. This grade is assigned by R the instructor only when a student has been unable to complete a research component of a course because the length of time for the research exceeds the end of semester and when a formal plan for completion of the research is filed with the instructor and the chairperson. Provisions for removal of the grade are the same as those for the grade of I. The instructor must submit the grade of R to the registrar along with the formal plan for completion of the research and the grade to be assigned to the student if the research is not completed satisfactorily in the time period stipulated. The plan for the student to complete the research shall be prepared by the instructor with the acceptance of the student. Unless specifically stated in the written plan to the contrary, it is assumed that the work will be completed prior to the end of the next regular semester. When the student has completed the plan, the instructor shall recalculate the grade to be assigned for the course and submit this new grade to the registrar according to established procedures. V Audit (See the section on Auditing of Courses) X No Grade Reported When this temporary grade is recorded, the provisions for determining academic honors, good standing, minimal progress, and satisfactory progress are not applied until the grade of X is removed. Withdrawn. (See the sections on Course Withdrawal and Withdrawal from the — — — W— University) Quality Points Quality point values are assigned as follows: Grade Quality Value Points A 4 B 3 C 2 D 1 E See note on pending revisions above. Quality Point Average (QPA) The Quality Point Average (QPA) is computed from the academic record of courses taken at Bloomsburg University in which grades of A through E were earned. The computation is executed by multiplying the number of semester hours for each course by the number of quality points for the grade in the course and adding the products, then dividing the sum obtained in the first step by the total number of semester hours represented by the courses. A "semester QPA" is computed by including only the courses of a single semester. The "cumulative QPA" is computed by including all courses taken to date at Bloomsburg University. If a course is successfully repeated at another regionally accredited institution of higher education, the credits for a grade of D or E and the quality points for the D at Bloomsburg are deleted from the computation. Change of Grade After a grade of A through E has been reported to the Registrar's Office, it may be changed only through the grievance process, to change a temporary grade to a final grade, or to correct a computational or clerical error. A recommendation for change of grade due to a computational or clerical error must be made in writing by the instructor and approved by the department chairperson and the dean of the appropriate college. When a grade of I and R is changed, only the approval of the department chairperson is required. Course Repeat Policy A maximum of four courses (not more than 14 semester hours) in which grades of D or E have been recorded may be repeated. The initial grade remains on the transcript and is part of the student's permanent record. Quality points are awarded for the grade of the repeated course only. The grade of the repeated course is part of the permanent record and is used to calculate the student's quality point average. Multiple repeats of the same course are considered as one repeat. A course taken at the university in which a grade of D or E has been earned and repeated at another accredited institution of higher education is included in the permitted maximum number of repeats. Withdrawal from a Course Any student except a first semester fresh- Academic Policies 52 man may drop a course during the schedule first five days of the semes- is change period (the ter). When a course is dropped, it is removed from the student's schedule entirely. After the schedule change period and continuing until one week past the middle of the semester, if a student withdraws from a course, a grade of will be recorded. As a means of notification to W • the instructor of the intent to withdraw, a stu- dent is required to obtain the instructor's signature on a withdrawal form. No withdrawals will be permitted after the close of the business day one week after the middle day of the semester. Prior to the last week of classes, in exceptional circumstances and for compelling and justified reasons, the dean of the college in which the course is being taught may waive procedures and when he/she files a temporary withdrawal/leave of absence form with the Admissions Office.

An approval form can be obtained from the registrar. Upon completion of a course, it is the student's responsibility to provide the registrar with an official transcript. Course evaluations by department chairpersons must be secured before the registrar can record courses and credits on the student's academic record. Evaluation of credit earned at other institutions by transfer students and by readmitted students who earned credit subsequent to their prior enrollment at Bloomsburg is made in the Admissions Office with guidelines provided by a department chairperson, cooperatively established by a college dean.

Academic Good Standing A student whose record at any final grading period shows a cumulative QPA of 2.00 or better is considered in academic good standing. (There are three final grading periods, fall semester, spring semester, and the total summer session.) Satisfactory Progress Satisfactory progress is evaluated on the any 12-month period, must earn half of all semester hours attempted for up to 8 semester hours; two-thirds of all credit hours attempted for 9 or more semester hours.

Academic Probation An undergraduate student in one of the permitted to attend the university on academic probation for one additional final grading period (semester/ summer) but limited to 16 semester hours: • An entering freshman whose QPA at the end of his/her first final grade period is at least 1.00 but less than 1.25; • A transfer student whose QPA at her/his first final grading period is less than, but within 0.25 of the cumulative QPA following categories is Academic Policies 54 and her/his record required for minimal progress; • A student who has been meeting the requirement • • • • for at least two consecutive grading periods immediately prior to a grading period in which his/her cumulative QPA drops below but within 0.1 of the cumulative QPA required for minimal progress; A full-time freshman or transfer student who was making minimal progress toward good standing at the end of the second grading period is below but within 0.1 of that required for minimal progress toward good standing; A readmitted student who was formerly dismissed for academic deficiency who at the close of the first grading period has not regained minimal academic progress or good standing; A full-time student who failed to earn 24 semester hours within one 12-month period; A part-time student who failed to earn the minimum number of semester hours as prescribed above within the given semester. Academic Dismissal A student who at any final grading period not in good standing, making minimal progress toward good standing, or qualified to attend for a semester on academic probation is excluded from registration, and his/her record is marked "academic dismissal." A student may be placed on "academic dismissal" without first being placed on academic probais tion. A student under "academic dismissal" is any courses offered for a period of at least one calendar year. Readmisineligible to attend sion regulations are stated in the section on Readmission. Students failing to meet the minimal requirements of earned credit hours and/or QPA will be notified by the Office of the Registrar. ic is again marked "academ- dismissal." If the student elects to attend the summer sessions immediately following reinstatement for a spring semester dismissal, then the entire summer session is considered the next grading period for which the student must attain minimal progress toward good academic standing or good academic standing. Petitions to the Academic Review Board must be in writing and must be mailed to the chairperson of the Academic Review Board within 48 hours of receipt of official notification of dismissal. The Academic Review Board includes the deans of Arts and Sciences, Business, and Professional Studies; director of Admissions, dean of the School of Extended Programs; coordinator of Academic Advisement; registrar; director of the Center for Counseling and Human Development; and a representative of the vice president for student life. At the initiative of either the applicant or the Academic Review Board, the student's adviser may be invited to participate as a voting member in the consideration of the case. In its evaluation of a petition for reinstatement, the 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, could complete his or her curriculum successfully within a reasonable extension of the normal four-year period; and an evaluation of the plan for attaining good standing proposed by the student. A decision of the Academic Review Board is final and not subject to review. Graduation Requirements Graduation requires the successful completion of at least 128 semester hours to include Appeals A student under "academic dismissal" may petition the Academic Review Board for reinstatement.

Plagiarism in term papers, themes, essays, reports, take-home examinations, etc. (To plagiarize is to steal or use without acknowledgment the ideas, words, formulas, computer programs, etc. of another person.) • Falsificadons including forging signatures, altering answers after they have been graded, insertion of answers after the fact, erasure of a grader's marking, etc. A student found guilty of academic dishonesty may be subjected to a full range of penal• ties from reprimand to expulsion from the university. Diagnostic Testing Program Policy This policy applies to testing that is not a part of the admissions procedure or course requirements. The coordinator of academic advisement uses diagnostic test results to assist with course placement. Students will be selected for diagnostic testing based upon their predicted freshman year grade point average or performance in courses at Bloomsburg University. A predicted freshman year QPA is calculated for each new freshman at the time of application to the university. New students with a predicted QPA less than 2.5 will be given diagnostic test(s). Students whose college QPA falls below 2.0 will be considered for diagnostic testing based upon their circumstances. The specific area(s) of diagnostic testing will be determined by the pattern of SAT scores and either high school or college achievement.

In this case, approval may depend upon such factors as overall grade point average, available space, and recommendations from departmental nymity assured. Depending on the results of the review of the record and the diagnostic evaluation, an individual program may be provided. If a student is identified and placed in a developmental course (s), the course (s) is con- sidered a prerequisite before additional courses for credit can be taken in the corresponding area. Each student will be provided with a letter indicating course placement or the recommended resources available to assist them, such as tutorial services, tutorial labs, and the College Study Skills courses. Such developmental programs will be provided for a maximum of students within the budgetary limits of the university.

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 post- graduate education in health care. Central to most allied health programs, especially the clinical portion, is satisfactory completion of the clinicail standards, often referred to as the Es- sentials. 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 usualspan two to four years. Student then transfer to another institution for their clinical training and, upon completion of the program, earn a baccalaureate or master's degree. Bloomsburg University does not award specific degrees in these areas. Students who select these preparatory programs follow a course of study that not only prepares them for entry into a variety of programs at other schools, but provides the option of pursuing a bachelor's degree in biology if they should decide to complete a degree ly program at Bloomsburg programs at other institutions; however, the school boasts a high rate of success in matching students with clinical programs and the variety of placement sites is conin allied health Bio- University. The university cem not guarantee placement siderable. The opportunity to obtain degrees in phys- occupational therapy, or cytotechnology is enhanced by an affiliation with Thomas Jefferson University's College of Allied Health Sciences. This agreement facilitates the transfer of students who have 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" and culminates in a master's degree from Thomas Jefferson University. It is important to note that many physical therapy programs are entered after the student has received a baccalaureate degree, and the postbaccalaureate program leads to a master's degree. ical therapy, Bloomsburg University is an active participant in the PACE (Plan A College Education) program sponsored by Thomas Jefferson University's College of Allied Health Sciences. PACE is an advanced early admission program for academically talented secondary school seniors who wish to matriculate to Thomas Jefferson University after attending an accredited university for, at least, the first two years. All colleges of pharmacy in the United States offering the Bachelor of Science in pharmacy require five years of college education for the completion of degree requirements. The five year curriculum is usually divided into two years of pre-pharmacy education and three years of professional pharmacy education. Thus it is a "2 plus 3"program. Students who present course credits for pre-pharmacy work done at Bloomsburg University, and for which they have received a grade of C or better, have been given credit for courses which correspond Allied Hecdth 91 in length and content with those prescribed by the curricula in most colleges of pharmacy accredited by the American Council of Phar- maceutical Education. Curriculum Requirements The curricula for these preparatory ; 45.315 (not required for physical therapy); Psychology 48.101, 48.210 or 48.211, 48.335 (required for occupational therapy only) Biological and Allied Health Sciences 50.110, ; pro- grams vary. Students are encouraged to design a program that satisfies the requirements of the school to which they intend to transfer. For example, the courses cited below under "Professional Courses" are required by Thomas Jef- ferson University's physical therapy programs. 20.101, 20.201; Sociology 45.211 (not required for physical therapy) ^Anthropology 45.200 or and occupational Professional Courses The following courses are required: English 50.120, 50.173, and 50.174; Mathematics 53.112 or 53.123 or 53.125. Chemistry and physics courses are required for the physical therapy program at Thomas Jefferson University. These include: Chemistry 52.115 and 52.131; and Physics 54.111 and 54.112. Students must select additional elective courses to complete 55 semester hours in occupational therapy or 65 semester hours in physical therapy. 92 Anthropology Department of Anthropology and Faculty Credentials Robert R.

Anthropology also has an important humanistic tradition. At Bloomsburg University, anthropology is divided into three study areas: cultural anthropology which studies ways of life in societies across the world; physical anthropology which human origins and biological variabiliand archaeology which seeks to explain traces ty; human behavior by studying material remains from past cultures. The Department of Anthropology's principle mission is to provide a liberal education for all students.

The art department is dedicated to providing an ideal environment for the nurturing of this development artist's within the confines of a liberal arts education. Art professors are committed to excellence in teaching as well as actively involved in their own nationalities. The studio is used as a means of giving the student a chance to develop skills through mediums of visual expression that will lead to statements of personal worth. Competency is expected within the electronic media as well means for students to fully explore their expressive desires. Through explorations in the various arts, the student should understand the richness of the working process as a framework for the end product. In addition to traditional academic study, interaction with the faculty and use of facilities on campus are important to the student's development. as the traditional Required Courses for Art History Required courses include: 24 semester hours in art history courses; 6 semester hours in art studio courses; 3 semester hours in either art education, art history or art studio courses; and 6 semester hours in a foreign language, namely, French, German, Italian, or a language approved by the department chairperson.

The program meets the needs of students who plan to enter graduate studies, the medical field, or professions that require in-depth preparation in the natural sciences. 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 pro- gram to their specific and career objectives. interests, backgrounds, Students pursuing either degree program elect an option in microbiology. The required courses in microbiology specified under the option are identical for both programs of study. may The marine science option, which is also both bachelor's programs, provides students with the opportunity to specialize in marine biology while obtaining a general background in the biological sciences. At least four courses, totaling 12 semester hours, must be taken at the Marine Science Center in open to majors in Virginia. Graduates in biology have entered medical. 100 Biology veterinary, dental, graduate, and paramedical They are employed in federal, state, schools. and and They have found employment in local agencies as biologists, ecologists, naturalists. laboratories operated by universities, pharma- and government agencies.

Introductory history courses provide the basic factual information which places nation- and international events in their proper setting. Advanced courses develop interpretive and analytical abilities as well as those oral and written skills applied to historical inquiry and al the day-to-day problem-solving situations confronted by the educated student. The ability to complete research and work independentiy on specialized research projects and the maturity associated with independent inquiry are essential ingredients of advanced study. Cur- and social issues are handled withacademic program which features traditional topical and/or time periods as well as issue-oriented courses which deal with current political in a flexible rent events. Diverse course offerings allow students the opportunity to study nations whose and political goals differ from own. The examination of earlier cultures, culture, values, their time periods, and emerging nations allow the student to place the evolution of civilization in a proper historical context. Lastly, history is among the humanities. Like a great painting, a piece of music or a gorgeous sunset, history is viewed as something that enriches one's life and has an existence separate from the practical skills and professional preparation associated with the discipline.

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 Es- These standards establish requirements related to curriculum, personnel, financsentials. ing, resources, Program of Study of a applicants to Bloomsburg University. These requirements may be found under the section on Admission. Assistance with the admission application to the clinical year phase is offered by the university, but admission to that phase, as well as fees, are determined solely by the institution where the clinical work is done. The 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. Upon successfully completing one or both of these examinations, the student is awarded a certificate of registry and the designation Medical Technologist (M.T.) (ASCP) or Clinical Laboratory Scientists (C.L.S.) A student who fails (NCA). to gain admission to a 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 additional year; other curricula may demand more time.

The Advanced Course consists of four courses given during the junior and senior years. This portion of the trates on curriculum concen- such as tactics, training, ethics, and continued leadership development. Students receive academic credit for all ROTC courses.

Coursework provides training in leadership and management skills which help the individual develop the ability to communicate effectively, think analytically, and make independent and re- sponsible decisions. Two, three, and four year academic scholarships are available. Benefits include full tu- and the first two years of ROTC and are eligible to enter direcdy into the Advanced Course.

Army ROTC also offers a ranger team for students who wish to gain more experience in outdoor activities such as orienteering and survival skills. Students who successfully complete the curriculum receive a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, Army Reserve, or National Guard. Time served on active duty varies, dependent upon the type of program the student elects. Students can be guaranteed Reserve or National Guard duty if ROTC they desire.

A is re- Goals and Objectives The goals of the Department of Music are to provide a balanced and diverse program of quality music activities, to provide a student- generated music performance element for the entire university community, and to achieve better understanding of the art of music and the principles guiding effective education in music. This goal is supported by a number of course offerings (classroom music courses in appreciation, skill development, music history, style and repertoire, harmony and applica- maintenance of seven prominent performance ensembles appearing regularly on campus and through tours, and opportunities to tion) , study voice, piano, organ, and the standard orchestral string and wind instruments on a basis. In addition, oppor-/ and lead-} ership roles. ' Program offerings include: a Bachelor of — Arts in Music a liberal arts-oriented preparation for studio teaching and postbaccalaureate study; a choice of audio recording, per- formance or music history specializations; a minor in music a 22-semester hour program packaged according to seven specialty areas in music; a music concentration for education majors; and certificate programs either in — music (22 semester hours) or theater-music (18 semester hours). Selection of either the music major or minor program is highly encouraged in the freshman year. Prospective performance music majors must audition by cassette or in person before acceptance as a music major into the applied music (performance) specialization. A maximum of 6 semester hours may be earned in seven ensembles: Maroon and Gold Band, Concert Choir, Women's Choral Ensemble, University-Community Orchestra, Husky Singers, Studio Band, and Chamber Singers. Enrollment in an ensemble is based on invitation or successful audition. The ensembles are described as courses 35.106 through 35.112. Private lessons in voice, organ, piano, strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion are available to qualified students. Eight semester hours of private instruction may be earned in eight fall/spring semesters, 1 6 semester hours for music majors. (For voice, contact Drs. Nelson or Miller; for organ. Nelson; for piano, Couch; for class piano, Stokes or Couch; for woodwinds and percussion, Oxley; for brass, Wallace; and for strings, Jelinek and Stokes.) Each performance ensemble carries both a lower division and an upper division course number; the latter indicates enrollment from \ the fourth semester of participation. The upper division course number is always a 300 level number. Similarly each applied studio in-j struction (private lesson) carries two division course numbers, the upper division number indicating enrollment from the third semester of study.

I Elective Courses i Select a total of 18 semester hours, 12 se- mester hours of which must be accrued from upper division courses, i.e., at the 300 level or above. Minor in Political Science A total of 18 semester hours is required for a Degree Program I and include the following four courses University of Pennsylvania; M.A., Rutgers University to the minor in political science. There are no re- quired courses. Students should consider building a minor around one of the four subfields of political science, namely, U.S. Government, Comparative Government, International Politics, and Political Theory. j , i j Goals and Objectives The department offers courses in all the major subfields of political science for students who wish to acquire a thorough understanding of the art, science, theories, processes, structures of governments and and politics. Introductory courses are designed for both majors and non-majors. The importance of government and politics (locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally) clearly points to political science as a critical element in the education of any university student. Advanced courses are offered for students who need in-depth study and specialized subject matter to serve as a foundation for careers liberal in politics, law, public administration, commu- nity service, international relations, criminal justice, communications, or teaching. All courses attempt to develop the student's read carefully, communicate effectivethink critically, analyze logically, and research thoroughly. A balance is sought between abstract concepts and theories on the one hand and concrete structures, processes, and applications on the other. Field work and internships give students an opportunity to apply ability to ly, Political Science (Code 44) \ — 44.101 Elements of Political Science (3) Uses the procedures of political science to study power and examines the processes of politics and the practices of governments, the performance of and the pressures on the political system.

Shonis, assistant professor, Department of Biological and Allied Health Sciences Degree Program Bachelor of Science Goals and Objectives The programs in allied health sciences encompass health areas in which individuals support, aid, and increase the efficiency and effectiveness of other health professionals by becoming a contributing member of a health care team. These programs combine natural science and liberal arts education with clinical instruction. In general, students who complete any of the programs enter their professions immediately. Others may select postgraduate education in health care. Central to most alprograms, especially the clinical satisfactory completion of the clini- lied health portion, is cal standards, often referred to as the Essen- These standards establish requirements related to curriculum, personnel, financing, tials. resources, and records. Program of Study Radiological technologists are allied health professionals who have expertise in the operation of X-ray equipment and the preparation of patients for various diagnostic procedures. Many clinically educated technologists pursue a variety of careers, often in managerial or teaching roles within their disciplines. In order to meet the varying needs of radiological technologists, the program offers a means of entering Bloomsburg at an advanced entry level and allows students to select a group of courses comprising either a management emphasis or an education emphasis. Students entering at this advanced level are awarded 30 to 60 semester hours for satisfactory completion of an AMA-approved program and the passing of the ARRT examination. It is assumed that many advanced level students will be part time and will require more than two years to complete the program. The required third and fourth year courses comprise an allied health core similar to that taken by other allied health majors. Although advanced entry is most common, other academic pathways exist for this program. For details, students should contact their adviser.

Goals and Objectives The preprofessional curriculum in communication disorders prepares students for admission to graduate education in speech pathology and audiology. The department makes no recommendation for any type of certification based on the completion of the undergraduate preprofessional curriculum. A core of re- quired courses is prerequisite to graduate school admission and is based on the Ameri- (ASLHA) accreditation/certification require- ments. Courses in the undergraduate preprofessional curriculum in speech pathology and audiology are open to all university students (majors and non-majors) who are interested in hearing science, speech science, normal lan- guage and communication development and/ or disorders. Courses in the curriculum can be elected by students in teacher preparation (i.e., childhood, elementary, secondary or special education or education of the hearing impaired) who want to gain competencies related to the special problems of teaching children with speech, language, and hearing impairments. The curriculum offers a general education course concerning the processes, functions, and pathologies of human commuearly nication. The preprofessional curriculum provides the student with a broad general education background. The primary emphasis is on general education with a few introductory courses pertaining to the profession of speech pathology and audiology. No professional courses or experiences are offered at the undergraduate level (i.e., student teaching). Admission to the graduate programs in audiology and speech pathology is competitive and limited. Graduates of the master's degree program in speech pathology and audiology are eligible for certification in speech correction granted by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Audiology or Speech Pathology issued by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Assocation (ASLHA) and licensure in audiology or speech pathology issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. , Required Courses The following courses in speech pathology and audiology are required: 72.162, 72.200, 72.220, 72.240, 72.300, 72.310, 72.320, 72.330, 72.340, 72.430, 72.450, and 72.460; plus the following courses which total 15 semester hours.
