GENERAL INFORMATION The College ^ Student Life ^ Entrance to Slippery Rock 3g Fees and Financial Aid 3g Academic Procedures . . . ' 55 Situated in the beautiful woodlands of Western Pennsylvania, the College is alive with ideas and activity. Its strength is found in its faculty, comprised of 356 scholars from all over the world, dynamic administration, student body, highly functional facilities, which number over thirty, and academic programs which embrace 25 under­ graduate majors and a host of special programs, including an extensive foreign study program, marine science program, wide variety ot intern programs, unique interdisciplinary programs and other exciting programs which reach far beyond the Slippery Rock' campus to provide meaningful learning experiences. Founded in 1889, the College has matured and broadened from a teacher's college to an expand­ ing, multi-purpose State college of 5,500 students organized into six schools: Humanities and Fine Arts; Natural Sciences and Mathematics; Social and Behavioral Sciences; Education; Health; Physical Education and Recreation; and Graduate Studies. The spacious, rolling 600-acre Slippery Rock campus is within minutes of the cities of Pitts­ burgh, 50 miles to the south, and Youngstown, Ohio, 35 miles to the west. Interstate 79 and 80, within 5 miles, provide easy access to the Slippery Rock campus from all points. The College, in accepting the challenge of a rapidly changing, technological society, recognizes a dual purpose: to provide a liberal education designed to produce enlightened, flexible citizens and, hopefully, dynamic leaders; to provide special­ ized education intended to equip the student for the profession of his choice. An improved society and a satisfying way of life for the individual are the ultimate objectives of both. The faculty is cognizant of the importance of its functions of service, research, and teaching, but the 8 — Slippery Rock primary emphasis at the College is upon quality instruction.

General Information — 17 Student Life The Slippery Rock student enters an academic community in which he will find many oppor­ tunities to develop the abilities, motivation, and curiosity that will enable him to become intel­ lectually and socially independent. The programs of study have been designed to be relevant to the needs and interests of the student, to the academic standards which the College upholds, and to the College community which the College serves. Although the College seeks to maintain an en­ vironment that is conducive to the personal, socia , and intellectual development ot the Slippery oc student, the student is responsible for budgeting his time in order that he might realize his objectives. The College encourages each student to partic­ ipate in activities in accordance with his ability an interest. Through participation in selected activ­ ities, students are provided with opportunities to assume responsibility and develop leadership skills. Students serve with faculty and administration on essential committees such as curriculum, discipline, library, and student welfare. LIVING FACILITIES The social adaptability of each student is chal­ lenged in his day-to-day life within the residence hall. Supervision of residence halls is conducted in an advisory rather than in a directive context and is in most instances conducted by the student's peers. Since the College attempts to provide campus housing for resident students, all freshmen men and women are required to live in collegesupervised residence halls and to eat at one of the college dining halls. Sophomore students may reside in residence halls or college approved off-campus housing. Jun­ iors and seniors, students over 21 years of age, commuters, and married students are not bound by any housing restrictions, other than the responsi­ bility of keeping the Housing Office informed as to their current college address.

RULES AND REGULATIONS Slippery Rock State College assumes that each stu­ dent is a mature, responsible individual who has entered the institution for educational advance­ ment. On that assumption, the College expects the student to direct his energies toward the highest scholastic achievement possible tor the individual. The College requires that the student, while at­ taining these high educational purposes, maintain a pattern of the social behavior in keeping with good taste and high moral standards. The student is charged with the responsibility for regular class at­ tendance, reasonable study hours, and a balanced social program. The Office of Student Standards is responsible for the coordination of the Code of Conduct and the related judicial processes which are designed to insure student rights and responsibilities and to as­ sist the college in fulfilling its educational mission. Students registered at Slippery Rock State Col­ lege are expected to understand and respect both the College, Federal rules and regulations, and State .laws. Any function sponsored by or held in the name of a recognized student organization must follow all College regulations whether that function be held on or off campus. To help alleviate the College's parking problem, only seniors, veterans, and bonafide commuting students may obtain an approval card to have a car on campus and may purchase a decal. Car registra­ tion must be presented to obtain a parking permit. Moving violations and others will be enforced under authority of the rules, regulations, and en­ forcement procedures adopted by the College, which coincide with the Pennsylvania State Vehicle Code. All changes in major must be initiated with the Academic Advisor. The student may fill out a re­ quest for change of major and process the change with the Office of the Registrar. Seniors are expected to notify the Registrar s Office during the first week of the semester in which they are to graduate. If they expect to meet degree requirements during the summer, they should notify the Registrar's Office by the first week of summer. A diploma is not ordered until General Information — 25 24 — Slippery Rock this requirement is met. Seniors expecting to teach must have a physical examination and a chest x-ray or tuberculin skin test during their senior year. Arrangements shou be made with the College Infirmary at the begin­ ning of the last semester prior to graduation. A complete account of the College's rules and regulations, living standards, and parking registra­ tion procedures are outlined in the student hand­ book, the Green and White, and/or the Code of Conduct. STUDENT AFFAIRS SERVICES The primary purpose of the Office of Student Affairs is complementary and supportive of the formal academic teaching function in reaching the goals of the College. More specifically, its aim is the development of an out-of-class learning en­ vironment — involving all members of the academic community — which will enhance and extend the learning experiences of students beyond the class­ room. Concerns focus on the optimum growth and de­ velopment of the student; his search for identity; development of self-discipline and self-evaluation; competence in decision-making; learning and ap­ plication of leadership and organizational skills; de­ velopment in social and human-relations skills; value structuring; and citizenship responsibilities. A responsibility, among others, assumed by the Office of Student Affairs is to represent the needs of students and to serve as resource persons in in­ terpreting student life and behavior to others in the academic community; and, conversely, in interpret­ ing the community to students. The major functions performed include counsel­ ing and career services, health services, housing, food service, activity programming, orientation, financial aid, residence hall programming, leader­ ship development, student advising, and student standards. Undergraduate Staff Members In addition to full-time, professional and noninstructional staff members, a number of under­ graduate students hold staff positions, on a parttime basis, within the Office of Student A airs. These students are employed as members ot the residence hall staff. Each residence hall is administered by a Hea Resident (undergraduate students, graduate stu dents, and non-instructional employees are eligi e to hold this position). Assisting the Head Resi ent in the operation of each residence hall is a team of undergraduate students serving as Hall Advisors. A Hall Advisor is responsible for carrying out certain tasks that are vital to the residence hall as a whole, conveying pertinent information to the residents on his or her floor, making himself or herself available to fellow students as an advisor and friend, plus maintaining order on the floor. Graduate Student Staff Members There are a number of positions in the department held by persons working toward graduate degrees. These graduate positions are available to students majoring in all academic disciplines. Graduate appointments are available to either married or single graduate students. Those ap­ pointed are not required to live in residence halls unless they are appointed to a residence hall supervisory position. Graduate appointments are available in the following areas: Student activities and college union; residence hall staff; financial aid; counseling services; student standards; special programs. Those graduate students employed in the res­ idence halls are provided apartments or rooms in the residence halls where they work. Health Services The physicians and nurses of the College Health Services provide medical care for students. The Dispensary and Infirmary are located in the rear of North Hall. Twenty-four hour health care is pro­ vided for students by the Health Service staff. The facilities do not provide laboratory services, diagnostic x-ray, emergency surgery, or dental care. The college physicians may refer students to their family physician or to a specialist. Student Insurance Program Undergraduate students are required to be covered by health and accident insurance. This may be done by the student through an independent source, or the student may elect to purchase coverage at the time of registration. The student must furnish evidence of comparable coverage, if he wishes to have a waiver granted for the purchase of the College recommended policy. The coverage procured through an independent source must be comparable to that recommended by the College. The College reserves the right to determine com­ parable coverage. Students must report promptly to the College nurse all cases of accident or illness requiring General Information — 27 26 — Slippery Rock medical attention, if an insurance claim is to be processed. Brochures, explaining the insurance coverage in detail, are supplied by the insurance company holding the contract with the College and are made available to the students. Counseling and Career Services Center A placement service for all seniors and alumni is located in the Counseling and Career Services Center. With the cooperation of the deans and department chairman, complete and accurate infor­ mation is made available to potential employers. Also, a staff of counseling psychologists is available to assist students with academic prob­ lems, such as study difficulties or decisions re­ garding change of major or vocation, as well as concerns of a more personal nature. Student personal data and interview records are kept in strictest confidence. The hours for the Center are: 8:30 a.m. — 12 noon and 1 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Appointments may be made in person or by calling the Center. All S.R.S.C. students are welcome to use the services of the Center without charge. Selective Service Any male student wishing the College to advise his Selective Service Board of his status as a student must initially complete forms SSS 104 and SSS 109. Information on selective service policy and procedure is available in the Office of the Dean of Students. Veterans Affairs All veterans should present the Certificate of Eligibility to the Office of the Dean of Students upon arrival on campus. It is the responsibility of the veteran to contact the College concerning his Veterans Administration benefits and to keep the Veteran's Affairs coordinator advised of any changes in his program. Any veteran who has served continuously on active duty for a period of at least 180 days, any part of which was after January 31, 1955, and who was discharged or was released under conditions other than dishonorable is eligible for Veterans Administration benefits under the Public Law 89-358. A veteran who served less than 180 days may be eligible if he was discharged or released because of a service-connected disability. CULTURAL PROGRAMS The Office of Student Activities sponsors an Artist-Lecture Series which presents programs pro­ viding information, cultural experiences, and enter­ tainment for the college community. Student and faculty-sponsored programs are presented frequently to discuss matters pertaining directly to the college and to widen educational horizons through out-of-classroom learning. COMMUNITY CHURCHES There are four churches in Slippery Rock: the United Methodist, the Center United Presbyterian, the Highland United Presbyterian, and the St. Peter's Roman Catholic. There are opportunities for worship in other Protestant and Catholic churches and Jewish synagogues in nearby com­ munities. CAMPUS MINISTRY A Catholic and Protestant campus ministry is supported through two ordained persons, Rev. John Oesterle (Catholic chaplain) and the Rev. T. Neil Severance (Protestant chaplain). The campus ministry endeavors to embrace all phases of stu­ dent life, that relate to personal growth, and 28 — Slippery Rock xSOc^ to be of every possible assistance toward the attainment of that end.

General Information — 35 34 — Slippery Rock APPLICATION PROCEDURES FOR FRESHMEN Applications will be accepted beginning July 1 following the junior year of high school. In order to be certain of consideration, the student should initiate an application by December of the senior year. The following four steps are essential for com­ pletion of an application for admission to Slippery Rock State College: Application Form This form may be acquired by writing to the Office of Admissions. It is to be completed by the candidate and mailed directly to the Director of Admissions. Application Fee A non-refundable application fee of $10 — check or money order made payable to the Common­ wealth of Pennsylvania - must accompany the application. Secondary School Transcript This form is to be handed to the guidance counselor or high school principal for completion and is to be sent directly to the Director of Admissions. It should be submitted as soon as possible after the applicant commences the senior year schedule of courses. Admission Examination Each applicant for admission must write either the Scholastic Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination Board or the test battery of the American College Testing Program. Slippery Rock State College prefers that students taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test do so in November or December and that those taking the American College Test do so in October or December. Full information pertaining to dates of administration, testing centers and registration procedures may be obtained from the guidance counselor or the respective testing service. An official copy of the test results must be received in the Office of Admissions before action may be taken on the application. If offered admission, the applicant will then be required to submit a physical examination report on the form provided by the College. EARLY DECISION Consideration for Early Decision for Fall entrance will be given to those candidates who meet prescribed requirements in terms of secondary school preparation and achievement, and junior year SAT or ACT scores. Those offered admission through Early Decision will not be required to submit scores from a senior year testing date. Applicants who qualify for Early Decision will be notified beginning August 1. SUMMER-JANUARY ACADEMIC YEAR A limited number of students are offered admis­ sion each year beginning with the Summer Se­ mester and are assured that they may continue their studies in January, rather than in September. These offers are made to students who the College feels can succeed, but whose academic credentials are not sufficient to allow them to be admitted for the Fall enrollment quota. Students admitted for the Summer-January Aca­ demic Year attain sophomore standing by the end of the second semester, along with those students matriculated in the Fall, and continue on a regular enrollment basis for the remainder of their college program. In the past, the Selective Service has granted full-time student status to students en­ rolled in this program. ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM Credit toward degree requirements may be granted on the basis of courses completed under the Advanced Placement Program of the College Entrance Examination Board provided the end-ofcourse examination score is three or better. The student should initiate a request for such credit with the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. CREDIT BY EXAMINATION It is possible to earn credit toward graduation by taking examinations in areas in which the student has had exceptional preparation prior to enrolling at Slippery Rock. A student who wishes to have the opportunity to earn credit in this manner should consult with his faculty adviser soon after enrolling at the College. COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM Slippery Rock State College will grant up to a maximum of 30 semester hours of credit for satisfactory scores attained on the College Level Examination Board of the College Entrance Ex­ amination Board. Information pertaining to specific score require­ ments is available through the Office of the Registrar. 36 — Slippery Rock ADMISSION OF TRANSFER STUDENTS A student who has been registered in any institu­ tion of collegiate rank, regardless of the length of time attended, is classified as a transfer student. Eligibility To be eligible for consideration for transfer from another regionally accredited institution, the stu­ dent must have a minimum cumulative quality point rating of 2.00 (4-point scale) for all credits attempted. In the case of transfer from a non-accredited institution, the stipulated minimum average is 2.50; however, if the student has been awarded an associate degree, the 2.00 cumulative average will prevail. Eligibility for consideration as a transfer student does not imply an automatic offer of admission nor does an offer of admission to the College imply admission to one of the College's professional schools. If at the time an applicant is granted admission to Slippery Rock State College he is enrolled as a student at another institution, it will be under­ stood that such admission has been granted on a provisional basis only. The student must actually receive an honorable dismissal, academic and social, before official admission will be given. A person who for any reason has been given suspen­ sion from another college or university may not be given consideration for transfer. An application for transfer may not be pro­ cessed until such time as an official transcript reflecting one semester's work (minimum of 15 credits) is available for evaluation in the Office of Admissions. This precludes the transfer of a stu­ dent at mid-term of the freshman year. Application Procedures In order to receive consideration for admission, an eligible student must: 1. File with the Director of Admissions the application for admission (transfer) and the application fee. 2. Have the principal or guidance counselor forward a secondary-school transcript to the Director of Admissions. 3. Have the college(s) previously attended send a transcript of work completed to the Director of Admissions. Transfer of Credits An official evaluation of credits will not be made until the applicant has received and accepted an offer of admission. Earned credits which carry a grade of "C" or better and which apply to the prescribed program at this institution will be honored. Slippery Rock State College will accept only one course per semester which has been graded on a P-F (S-U) basis to a maximum of 12 semester hours for the student's undergraduate career. A student transferring from a two-year college or a two-year campus of a four-year college can transfer a maximum of 64 credits towards a degree program at Slippery Rock. To qualify for graduation, a student must earn thirty of the last thirty-six semester hours of credit on the campus of Slippery Rock State College and must be registered at this institution for the semester at the close of which the degree is to be conferred.

FINANCIAL AID General Information The Student Aids Program operates on the phil­ osophy that no person needs to forego a college education for lack of funds. To achieve this end, the Student Aid Office offers the following assist­ ance: , — Information on scholarships, grants, loans and part-time campus employment. — Counseling and assistance on the most ap­ propriate methods of financial assistance to fit each case. — Review of financial aid application. — Granting of Financial Aid Awards - which include grants, loans and employment. Basis for Awarding Student Aid Student financial aid is given on the basis of the financial need of the applicant. need s the difference between the total expense ol alien ing college and the total financial lesources a able to meet this expense.) The college considers financial aid to students a a partnership shared by the student, his Pare , and the College. To determine the student sn for further aid, first the College expense is e mated — this expense includes not only the tui i » fees, room and board, but also an allowance ^ books, clothing, recreation, transportation, a incidentals. A primary resource to meet this co expense is the amount which the student an^ parents can reasonably be expected to contri (Financial The expected family contribution is determined by a statistical need analysis which is performed on the Parents' Confidential Statement by the College Scholarship Service. The Need Analysis is based on recent cost of living studies. Added to the family contribution are all other non-repayable gift aids such as: Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency Scholarships or Grants, V-A benefits, Social Security benefits, etc. Total resources are then subtracted from total expenses. If the stu­ dent's expenses exceed his resources, he has a financial need. Parents' Confidential Statement To achieve an equitable distribution of its student financial aid resources, the college utilizes a uni­ form system of determining financial need. The system used has been developed by the College Scholarship Service (CSS) of Princeton, New Jersey. The College Scholarship Service is a non­ profit organization which assists colleges in deter­ mining the financial need of its students. Necessary information to assess financial need is provided through the Parents' Confidential Statement (PCS), which is published and distributed by the College Scholarship Service. Since most colleges utilize the services of the CSS, students need to complete only one confidential statement (PCS) and send it to the College Scholarship Service by March 1. Then, copies will be distributed to any member college to which the student has applied. Financially Independent (Self-Support) Students Parents have a legal and moral responsibility to provide a reasonable amount of financial assistance toward a student's college expenses. The fact that a student desires to be financially independent does not release parents from this responsibility. The major factors considered in determining the fi­ nancial independence of students are: (1) the applicant is not claimed by his parents for Federal or State income tax purposes, (2) the applicant has not lived at home for 12 months preceding the time when he expects to receive the aid, (3) the applicant has visible means of support, and (4) family ties have been severed and the financial assets of the parents are not available to the applicant. An essential condition is that the ap­ plicant shall have established an independent res­ idence, exclusive of residence at the college for purposes of attending college. The financial need of financially independent students is determined by a study of their own resources and expenses and not those of their General Information — 49 48 — Slippery Rock parents. If you believe that you satisfy the above conditions, you should schedule an appointment with the Director of Student Aid to discuss your individual situation. FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID How to Apply The application for Federal Funds and the Parents' Confidential Statement comprise the complete application for the Educational Opportunities Grant, the National Defense Student Loan, and the College Work-Study Program.

The grant cannot excee the difference between the amount a student an his family can contribute and the total expenses attending college. In those years when the amoun of money made available by Congress is less t an that needed to award maximum grants to a eligible students, a student will receive a percentage of his total grant. Part-time students are eligible to receive a pro rata percentage of their award. Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants is a federal aid program that provides assistance for students with exceptional need. The grants range from $200 to $1,500 a year for a total of $4,000 for a four-year program of study and $5,000 for a five-year program. None may exceed 50 percent of the college's estimate of the student's financial need. Grants are available to any student with need who is attending at least half-time and progressing normally toward a degree. They are not restricted to students who are expected to or who actually do maintain a strong academic average. Colleges and universities participating in this program make these awards directly, and candidates apply through the financial aid office of the institutions they are planning to attend. The College Work-Study Program (CWS) f also a federal program, provides jobs for students with great financial need. Both part-time and full-time students are eligible to participate in the program. Federal studies show that the average amount earned by students under this program is $600 per year. CWS jobs are available through colleges and public and private nonprofit agencies. Direct Student Loan Program (previously called the National Defense Student Loan Program) is funded by the federal government but is admin­ istered directly by colleges. Undergraduate stu­ dents receive loans under this program in amounts up to $2,500 for their first two years in college and $5,000 for their total undergraduate program. Students begin paying back these loans after they complete their education and at the end of any period of military service or service with the Peace Corps or VISTA (although they may begin repay­ ment ahead of schedule if they wish). They may take up to 10 years to repay. No interest is charged until repayment begins, and then a 3 percent charge is applied to the unpaid balance. For students who go into teaching of the handicapped, or of preschool students in Headstart programs, or in schools where 30 percent of the students come from low-income families, or into the military services in areas of hostilities, a certain percent of these loans is canceled each year. STATE FINANCIAL AID P.H.E.A.A. State Grants The State Grant program administered by the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency is to provide gift aid to worthy students for General Information —51 50 — Slippery Rock post-secondary school education.

State Guaranteed Loans The State Guaranteed Loan Program was estab­ lished to improve the higher education opportun­ ities of Pennsylvania residents who are attending approved institutions of higher learning in this state or elsewhere in the United States, by pro­ viding loans of up to $1500 a year to assist them in meeting their expenses of higher education. The Office of Student Aid offers counseling and other assistance to students who are seeking part-time employment to supplement their college funds. It is suggested that students come to campus with sufficient funds to finance their first semester. The student who carries a full academic schedule is strongly advised to reserve sufficient time for out-of-class study, and part-time working hours should be adjusted to the student's schedule of classes. For this reason, it is necessary to wait until class registration has been completed to arrange the employment schedule. Earnings gained through part-time employment, can be a substantial source of additional income to defray college expenses. In addition, this work experience may be invaluable in developing skills needed for future full-time employment. In general, it is recommended that students work a maximum of 15 hours per week, however, a work load of 25 hours per week is permitted under the state employment program. State Student Employment The State Student Employment Program di from the College Work-Study Program in w student does not have to demonstrate nee employment.

To provide opportunity, without grade point consideration, for students a. to assess their own interests and abilities, as they attempt to choose majors, by exploring a variety of areas of knowledge. b. to broaden their range of courses in areas in which they do not have the background, but which they assume to be necessary. c. to free themselves of the tensions which arise out of competition for grade point averages. 2. As stated, the basic philosophy of Pass-NC is to enable the student to broaden his educational program and, thus, become a better student and individual. 3. In fulfilling requirements for graduation, a student may schedule a maximum of twelve hours of Pass-NC only in his sophomore, junior, and senior years.

The rationale for this program is that the student will have the opportunity to gain breadth of learning, experience in decision making, and a liberal arts philosophy to guide him in his selection of coursework. Freshmen and sophomore students are expected to elect courses from the three areas of liberal arts: humanities and fine arts, natural sciences and mathematics, and social and behavioral sciences. Each division calls for the election of four courses from three departments; two courses must be chosen from one department in each division. The minimum total hours in any one area must be 12 semester hours. The skill areas are intended to improve compe­ tence in communication and introduce basic methods of research. Both academic and physical skills are included. I he General Studies curriculum is outlined on the following page. UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS Undergraduate programs of study at Slippery Rock State College include: the Bachelor of Arts degree in humanities and fine arts, natural sciences and mathematics, and social and behavioral sciences; and the Bachelor of Science degree in secondary education, health, physical education, and recrea­ tion, and elementary education. The College offers undergraduate degree pro­ grams in 25 major fields under five schools: Education; Health, Physical Education, and Recre­ ation; Humanities and Fine Arts; Natural Sciences and Mathematics; Social and Behavioral Sciences.

A maximum of six hours credit may be granted on this program. Applica­ tions for participation in the program are accept­ able early in the spring semester of each year. Special Services Program The Special Services Program is provided for individuals who would not normally qualify for regular college admission because of inadequate academic preparation due to environmental and economic disadvantages, but who are otherwise highly motivated toward achieving a college degree and are willing to begin their college experience in June (3 months in advance of regular September admissions). No minimum academic qualifications are neces­ sary for entrance into the program with the exception of possession of a secondary school diploma or a Commonwealth Diploma issued by the Department of Public Instruction, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. All applicants will be interviewed at the College by the faculty-student Selection Com­ mittee. Admission is based on the results of the interview and on the recommendation of guidance counselors, community action groups, urban league personnel, etc. In addition to the interview, each applicant must complete the "Application for Special Services Program" and a "Parents' Confi­ dential Statement" and submit both forms to the Special Services Committee at the College. Students eligible for Special Services are enrolled for one or two semesters in special courses which are intended to strengthen their academic prepara­ tion. During the first semester, if requested, stu­ dents will receive a P (pass) or F (fail) for all courses. During the second semester, students have the option of continuing on the pass-fail system or receiving regular grades (A through F). Under the pass-fail system, the student receives credit for the courses taken, but the grades for those courses do not count toward the accumulation of his grade point average. Thus, students will not be penalized while they are developing the basic skills necessary for college. Upon completion of their first year, students enrolled in the program will be expected to compete academically with the regular student 80 — Slippery Rock bodv However, their progress will continue to be traced by the Program staff.

Financial assistance for students enrolled in the program is based on evidence of financial need. Financial aid awards will be granted on the basis of need as determined by a statistical analysis of the Parents' Confidential Statement. Individual atten­ tion and special handling will be given to each student who applies for Special Services. A finan­ cial aid package will then be extracted from all available sources. The "tost lucrative sources are PHEAA grants and loans, NDSL loans; Work Study employment is also available to the regular student For further information, application materials, and an interview, contact the Coordinator of Special Services, Slippery Rock State College, Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania 16057. Reserve Officer Training Corps (Army ROTC) Through cross-enrollment procedures with the Department of Military Science at the University of Pittsburgh, Slippery Rock students may Purs" an Army ROTC' Program via two distinct curricula, the Four-Year Program and the Two-Year Program. Students who complete either curriculum are commissioned as lieutenants in the Army Reserves with the top graduates being offered commission in the Regular Army. The ROTC Four-Year Program consists ot two phases: The Basic Course and the Advanced Course. Each phase covers four terms, with the Basic Course prerequisite for the Advanced ours . A student should have eight terms remaining in Ms curriculum when he enters the Basic Course plans to pursue the Advanced Course. Students ai admitted to the Advanced Course only upon application and selection.

McKay, Mohler, Mudrey, Neely, Owen, Polk, Quast, Rice, M. Shinaberry, Stroumbakis, Weimer, Weller The prospective elementary teacher is required to take course work that is balanced to offer a broad liberal education, which includes general educa­ tion, professional education, specialized courses, and an academic concentration of 12 semester hours. (These requirements are subject to any change which may become necessary as a result of future legislation or administrative action.) The primary objective of the elementary education program is to develop competent, effective ele­ mentary teachers. Field Experience Program The Field Experience program is a collaborative venture in teacher education sponsored by both the public schools in the area and Slippery Rock State College. It provides students with the oppor­ tunity to study and practice teaching in a realistic situation as they complete a block of method courses. This phase of pre-service training is offered to both juniors and seniors. For the most part, Field Experience represents a student's first professional experience. Thus, Teacher Assistants are not ex­ pected to demonstrate the same competence as a student teacher. Student participants involved in the Elementary Field Experience program will be required to demonstrate specific competencies, as identified by professors teaching various method courses, in public school classrooms. Academic Concentration The Elementary Education Academic Concentra­ tion consists of a minimum of 12 semester hours in one of the following areas: Biology, Chemistry, Economics, English, French, Geography, German, History, Mathematics, Physics, Political Science, Science (Earth & Space), Science (General), Sociol­ ogy & Anthropology, Spanish, and Speech. These hours may be taken from the General Education areas in which there is a teaching major.

Its aim is to place man and his achievements in the proper perspective of our own western heritage and the heritage of other cultures. The concentration in history is designed to develop a knowledge of the past with special emphasis on an understanding of contemporary problems. The paramount key to historical scholar­ ship is the exercise of critical analysis to evaluate and discover the comparative worth of men and events. Social science majors with a concentration in history enter careers in business, government agencies and education, or pursue graduate work in history, law, and other professional schools. For graduate work, a modern foreign language is recommended.

Fox, Kirk, Sample, R. Sayre, D. Shaw, Toepfer Psychology is a science of the behavior of living organisms with a scope of interest which ranges rom the amoeba to man. The discipline is expe­ riencing unprecedented growth and change. There !>> no more exciting nor more important science han one which attempts to understand man himself. I he department of psychology is small and em­ phasis is placed upon student-faculty interaction, ^eral courses are individualized with tutorial instruction rather than lectures to large groups. Students are offered many opportunities to con­ duct, under faculty supervision, empirical studies of behavior related to their interests and career goals. The department has established experimental laboratories for studying animal and human learn­ ing, psychophysics, physiological processes, and clinical behavior modification. Students have access to the SRSC Computer Center facilities for training in computer applications in psychology. The department has developed working relation­ ships with a number of private and community agencies to provide research and training expe­ riences for students. The Psychology Department is oriented toward meeting three broad educational needs: (1) prep­ aration of students with the B.A. for paraprofessional occupations (see Psychological Technician "track"); (2) preparation of exceptional students for entry into graduate programs at universities; and (3) preparation for other fields, such as medicine, law, social work, and others.

Taylor, Unterwagner Sociology-anthropology offers a variety of courses which explore the social and cultural bases of man's existence. Many of these courses deal with the origin, behavior, interactions and products ot human groups, as well as the problems that man has created in living in groups. At present, the department offers two "tracks" for its majors. The first is the Social Welfare track," designed to prepare students for entry •c*d professional positions in social service and welfare agencies. The Social Welfare sequence does not provide professional training; it is a liberal arts track." Students are expected to take courses in a irfoty of liberal arts disciplines, and also are xpected to show competence in sociological research and theory. A bachelor's degree is often adequate to gain initial employment in a social work agency, but the master's degree is almost always a requirement for acceptance as a professional and for career advancement. The second "track" is called simply "SociologyAnthropology." It is intended for students who are not interested in social welfare careers, but instead are (1) planning to attend graduate school or (2) seek a position in research, planning, or teaching at the junior or community college level. I he latter option requires at least a master's degree, and a Ph.D. is highly desirable for professional advance­ ment. A third career avenue for the student interested in sociology-anthropology is described in the School of Education section of this catalog. I his involves teaching sociology at the secondary school level. See SCHOOL OF EDUCATION Section for more information. The courses in the SoAn department are not designed only for our majors. Many ot the courses would be of interest and benefit to students who want to understand better the society in which they live, but do not wish to concentrate their 154 — Slippery Rock Requirements for the Major in Sociology-Anthropology Social Welfare "Track" Required courses in Sociology-Anthropology: (36) semester hours SoAn: 201, 202, 309, 317, 318, 405, 406, 407, 412,450 Six (6) semester hours of electives in Socio­ logy-Anthropology Sociology-Anthropology "Track" Required courses in Sociology-Anthropology: (24) semester hours (at a level of 200 or higher).
