1.1

INTRODUCTION
Bloomsburg State College,

as one of fourteen state-owned
education, has been charged by the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to serve as "... a center of
learning for the best possible education of the youth of

institutions

of

higher

Pennsylvania in the arts and sciences and to provide able and
dedicated teachers ..."
The arts and sciences are regarded as fundamental to all of
the activities implied by this charge. During the past several
years, the College has moved to strengthen the academic
departments and to expand the range of services through the
addition of pre-professional programs, continuing education,
programs in the health related sciences and business administration.

Although primarily dedicated to undergraduate work, the
College is continuing to strengthen the departments at the
master's degree level in the academic disciplines and in teacher
education.

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

backgrounds.

1.2

LOCATION

The Town of Bloomsburg, county seat of Columbia
County, is an industrial, trading, and residence community of
11,000 located on Route 11, 80 miles north of Harrisburg. It is
within two miles of two interchanges of Interstate 80.

Bloomsburg is served by the Greyhound and Continental
Trailways bus lines. Commercial airports are accessible at Hazleton near Route 80, at Wilkes-Barre-Scranton on Route 81, and
at Williamsport; each is about an hour's drive from Bloomsburg.
1.3

HISTORY

An academy "to teach youth the elements of a classical
education" was established in Bloomsburg in 1839. The
academy continued with varied fortunes until 1856, when a
charter was prepared and stock issued to reorganize as Bloomsburg Literary Institute. A building now known as Carver Hall in
memory of Henry Carver, principal at the time, was erected in
1867 on the site of the present campus.

Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Bloomsburg Literary Institute

became Bloomsburg Literary

Institute and State Normal School
continued under this name and organization until
1916 when it was purchased by the Commonwealth and called

in

1869;

it

Bloomsburg State Normal School.
Although the high school movement was making the
preparatory curriculum unnecessary, it was continued until
19 20; meanwhile a two-year post high school program
dedicated to professional preparation of teachers for the elementary schools was being inaugurated and strengthened.
Teacher education became the sole institutional purpose in
1920.
In 1927, the name of the school was changed to Bloomsburg State Teachers College and authority was granted to offer
the degree, Bachelor of Science in Education, for curricula for
teaching in secondary and elementary schools. This, together
with changes in teacher certification, led to the phasing out of
the non-degree curricula. In 1930, the offerings were extended
to include the special field of business education. A division of
Special Education was inaugurated in 1957, although the
College had offered certification programs in this area as early
as the 1940's.

GENERAL INFORMATION/
In 1960 the name of the school was changed to Bloomsburg State College; authorization was received shortly thereafter
to grant the degree, Bachelor of Arts, for liberal arts programs
in humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. In 1960
graduate study leading to the Master of Education degree was
inaugurated; in 1968 initial approval was received for the
degree, Master of Arts and in 1970 for the degree, Master of

Science.

Current efforts are directed toward development as a
multiple-purpose college offering liberal arts and teacher education curricula at the undergraduate and master's degree levels,
and business and other professional curricula in vocations other
than teaching as these are suited to the resources of the College.

ACCREDITATION
Bloomsburg State College

is fully accredited by the Middle
Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the
National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education,
and the Pennsylvania State Board of Education. The college is
also preparing to meet the criteria for specific professional

INTRODUCTION
It

is

desirable for each student to

become involved

in

extracurricular organizations and residence hall programs; these

provide opportunities to learn and grow as a human being
within an atmosphere of a living-learning center. Residence hall
programming is intended as a framework for emotional, social,
academic, and personal development; the programs involve
dining service, social gatherings, cultural events, discussion
groups, athletics, judicial proceedings, and a variety of student
organizations.

The commuting student is urged to work out a travel
schedule which permits him to spend as much time as possible
on campus and to participate in the groups of his choice.
The educational value of these services depends upon the
effort and involvement of each student, whether resident or
commuter.

Approved Off-Campus Housing
Approved housing is subject to the standards of the
College and the safety requirements of the state Department of
Labor and Industry. The Housing List is available in the Office
of the Director of Housing.
Fraternity and sorority houses are on the list of approved
housing; they are under the supervision of the Office of Student
Life.

Men or women who find accommodations in approved
housing must file copies of housing contracts with the Director
of Housing prior to registration.
Fraternities are classified as Approved Housing during the
semesters of the regular year; they are subject to supervision by
the Office of Student Life.
Independent Housing
Students residing off-campus in independent housing are
regarded as both citizens of the town and members of the
college community. The College cannot provide sanctuary from
the law nor can it be indifferent to its reputation in the
community. The College does not and cannot supervise the
health, safety, living standards, and contractual arrangements of
students living in independent housing.
An independent housing list is available in the Office of
the Director of Housing.
Students who live off-campus, whether in approved or
independent housing, are advised to understand fully the terms
and conditions of their housing contracts before signing. They
are also advised to obtain insurance to cover personal property,
since most landlords do not assume responsibility for loss of, or
damage to, personal property of the resident.

of changes by the College in graduation or

curriculum requirements, a full-time student who attends
without interruption may choose to satisfy either the requirements as they existed at the time of his entrance or the new
requirements; if he elects to satisfy the new requirements he is

Academic Advisement
Students are requested to indicate on their application for
admission the area of study in which they are interested. A

the recommendation of his adviser. If the plan is approved by
the dean, a statement is issued to the student certifying that
upon the completion of the plan, the course requirements for
graduation will have been completed. After the plan has been
approved, changes may be made only with the approval of the
dean.
Change of Schedule

A

student may change his semester schedule prior to the
close of the second Friday following the first day of classes
upon approval by the dean of the school. A fee of $2 is charged
for a change of schedule.

Transfer of Curriculum

A

student may transfer from one curriculum to another
curriculum within the same School by obtaining permission of
the Dean of that School. Permission may depend upon such
factors as available space in the curriculum to which transfer is
requested and recommendations from advisers and counsellors.

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

A student who wishes to transfer from his present
curriculum to a curriculum in another school must apply for
transfer in the Academic Advisement office. The filing of this
request must be completed before the end of the semester
preceding the proposed transfer, preferably before the prescheduling period. Ordinarily, academic Good Standing is
prerequisite to transfer; students with lower averages may apply
for transfer only with permission of the Vice-President for
Academic

Affairs.

Withdrawal from a Course

A student is permitted to withdraw from a course at any
time prior to the last week of classes for the semester. His grade
is determined by the following policy: If withdrawal is initiated
by the student prior to the close of the day established as the
end of the first half of the semester, the grade of "W" is
reported; if withdrawal is initiated later, a grade of "W" is
reported only if the student is currently passing, while the grade
of "E" is required if the student is failing the course. If a
student discontinues attending class without official withdrawal
the grade of "E" is indicated. Absence from the final
examination without evidence that it was caused by circumstances beyond the student's control is to be regarded as
discontinuing attending class without official withdrawal.
A withdrawal application card may be obtained from the
Registrar's office; the student has initiated his withdrawal when
he has complied with instructions which accompany the card
and has filed the card with the Registrar. His grade is
determined as of the date when he initiated withdrawal, except
that in case of prolonged absence, reliably confirmed as due to
causes beyond the student's control, the Vice-President for
Academic Affairs will request the instructor to make the grade
retroactive to the first day of absence due to this cause.
Withdrawal from the College

A

may withdraw from the College by securing the
Withdrawal Form from the Counseling Center and
completing and filing it as directed. The withdrawal process
includes the clearing of all financial obligations and the return
of the I.D. card and meal ticket. Grades are given in accordance
with policies stated above under "Withdrawal from a Course."
An individual who discontinues attendance without completing
official withdrawal and clearing of all obligations to the College
waives the right to a transcript and is denied future readmission.

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Policies

which govern reimbursements are stated

in the

chapter on Fees.
Pass-Fail Registration

and Rules

After attaining sophomore standing, a student may elect
courses on a Pass-Fail basis in accordance with the following
rules:

A maximum of four courses (not more than 13 semester
hours in total) may be included as part of the minimum
graduation requirement of 128 semester hours.
The courses must be electives in disciplines of the arts and
sciences beyond the requirements of the student's specialization. Specialization includes a major and any courses required as
concomitants of the major. Courses outside the specialization
taken on Pass-Fail basis may be used to satisfy General
Education requirements.
No more than two courses may be taken on this plan in
any semester or summer term.
The instructor is not informed that the course is being
taken on a pass-fail basis; his grades of A, B, C, D, or E are
translated later into grades of "P" or "F," with the grade of "P"
recorded for a grade of "D" or higher and the grade "F"
recorded for "E."
The grades "P" and "F" do not enter into the computation of a quality point average.
If, subsequent to completion of a course on a Pass-Fail
basis, the student should change his major to one in which the
instructor's original grade is required, the record is revised
accordingly.

The student may not revoke

a decision to take a course on

a pass-fail basis.

Normal Load and Overload

The normal load of a student is any semester is sixteen
semester hours. A student in Good Standing may register for a
maximum of eighteen semester hours in a semester. An overload
to a maximum of nineteen semester hours requires a Cumulative
Quality Point Average of 3.0 and permission of the Vice
President for Academic Affairs.
Repeating Courses

A

student

may

repeat a

maximum

of four courses in which
in which he

he has grades of "E." He may not repeat a course

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

A student who has received a grade of "E"
not take it later on a Pass- Fail basis.
Credit

may

by Examination

A

student

may

petition for the privilege of establishing

credit in a course or courses listed in the catalogue through a

comprehensive examination instead of through registration and
class attendance. The following regulations govern this provision

:

The student must present evidence in his petition that he has
had adequate experience with the course content either through
experience other than college attendance or through independent
study of the course content.
The student may not petition for an examination in a course
which he had audited, nor in a course in which he has received a
failing grade.

The student must present evidence of equivalent experience if
the course involves laboratory or studio work.
The student's petition must be approved in sequence by the
department chairman, the dean of the school, and the Vice-President
and Dean of Faculties.
An examination committee must be appointed by the department chairman and approved by the dean of the school. 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 typewriting or shorthand, is a course requirement,
the written and oral aspects must be supplemented by demonstration of skill. All papers must be filed in the department office for
three years following graduation.
If the student passes the examination, he is assigned the grade
of "P" for the course. If he fails, no record is made. This course does
not count in the student's normal quota of pass-fail courses.
The student must pay an examination fee comparable to hat
which would be paid by a part-time student who registers for the
course.
Suitable adaptations of the above procedures may be used to
validate transfer courses taken in non-accredited colleges. No fee is
charged for examinations to validate such credit. Examinations may
be based upon the syllabi of the courses taken in the previous
institution or in case the student wishes to establish equivalency
with courses in this college, upon the syllabi of courses offered in
t

this institution.

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Vice-President for Academic Affairs, register for one course as
an auditor. If he attends at least three-fourths of the regular
class meetings the grade "V" will be reported by the instructor
and the course will be entered on his academic record without
credit. No assignments are made to an auditor and no papers or
examinations are accepted by the instructor for grading or
record either during the period of enrollment or subsequent
thereto. An auditor may not participate in laboratory or studio
work if such work is part of the course audited.
A part-time student may register as an auditor, subject to
provision
that when computing the fee paid by the student
the
course
the
audited will be counted the same as if it were taken
for credit. Individuals who are not enrolled as students may
apply for audit privileges through the Director of Continuing
Education; acceptance depends upon such factors as space in
class and educational background.

Class Standing

A student has academic standing as a freshman until he has
32 semester hours of credit; as a sophomore from 32 to 63
semester hours, a junior from 64 to 95 semester hours, and a
senior if he has 96 or more semester hours of credit. Transfer

Definition of Full-Time Student

An individual who registers for twelve or more semester
hours is classified as a full-time student. One who registers for
less than twelve semester hours is a part-time student. Where the
word "student" appears in this catalogue without modification
either by word or context, "full-time student" is implied. A
full-time student retains this classification for the remainder of
the semester if he drops courses to the point where he is
carrying less than a twelve semester hour load.

CLASS ATTENDANCE

A student who is absent from a class for a reason which
can be verified as urgent is entitled to a reasonable amount of
assistance from the instructor in making up the work which was
missed. This includes permission to make up an examination
given the class during his absence and the late submitting of
assignments that were due during the period of absence. Urgent
reasons are defined as illness of the student, serious illness or
death of a member of the student's family, and other events
beyond the control of the student and of such nature as to
prevent attendance. Students whose absences do not fall within
this category may not claim the privilege of making up work. It
is
the responsibility of the student to provide adequate
verification of the reason for absence when applying for the
privilege of making up work missed.

Academic Dismissal

A

student who at any final grading period is neither in
Good Standing nor qualified to attend for a semester on
academic probation is excluded from registration and his record
is

marked "Academic Dismissal."

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

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

A

student under academic dismissal may petition the
Academic Review Board for reinstatement. If reinstatement is
granted, the conditions pertaining thereto are stated, and the
student's record is marked "Reinstated. " If the student does
not attain Good Standing by the end of the period granted by
the conditions of reinstatement he is excluded from registration
and his record is again marked "Academic Dismissal."
Petitions to the Academic Review Board must be in
writing and must be filed with the Vice-President for Academic
Affairs within 48 hours of receipt of notification.
The Academic Review Board comprises the Deans of

Schools of Arts and Sciences, Professional Studies, and
of the Vice-President for Student
Life; the Director of the Counseling Center; the Director of
Admissions; the Director of the Summer Sessions and Continuing Education; and the Registrar of the College. At the
initiative of either the applicant or the Academic Review Board,
the student's adviser will be invited to participate as a voting
member in the consideration of his case.
In its evaluation of a petition for reinstatement, the
Academic Review Board is charged to consider: the degree to
which external factors beyond the student's control temporarily
prevented optimum academic achievement; the likelihood that
these or similar factors would not recur if reinstatement were
granted; the likelihood that the student, if reinstated, can
complete his curriculum successfully within a reasonable extension of the normal four year period; an evaluation of the
plan for attaining Good Standing proposed by the student as a
part of his petition; and such other factors as may seem
pertinent. Reinstatement is an expression of confidence on the
part of the Board in the student's potential for successful
completion of his curriculum and his fulfillment of its purposes.
A student whose petition for reinstatement has been
denied by the Academic Review Board may appeal the decision
within 48 hours to a special panel consisting of the vicepresidents of the College, provided the dean of the school in
which the student has been enrolled supports the appeal by
certifying that in his judgment it presents evidence concerning

PRE-PROFESSIONAL STUDY AND ADVISEMENT

Students who enroll in Bloomsburg State College to
prepare for admission to a school of medicine, dentistry,
pharmacy, veterinary medicine, law or other professions should
inform the Director of Admissions prior to the orientation
period so that an appropriate assignment of adviser can be

made.
Pre -Medicine, Pre-Dentistry, and Pre -Veterinary Medicine

vary.

Admission requirements to medical and dental schools
Students who express an interest in one of these

professions are referred to an adviser

who makes

a continuing

schools and can advise students with respect to their choices of
courses and with respect to academic standards expected of
applicants.

A pre-medical, pre-dental or pre-veterinary student who
wishes to work toward a baccalaureate degree at Bloomsburg
State College may choose a curriculum with a major as
described in Section 7.2. The student, however, may find that
the Broad Area Curriculum described in Section 7.3 provides
greater flexibility than a curriculum with a major in a single
discipline. Whether a student chooses a major or the Broad Area
Curriculum, the pre-professional adivser is in position to advise
the student in his choice of electives. If the student chooses a
major he should work with two advisers, the adviser for his
major and the pre-professional adviser. If he chooses the Broad
Area Curriculum, the pre-professional adviser alone can serve.

needs of a pre-legal student.

The Department of Music serves Elementary Education through
courses which build a minor in music for elementary school teachers. It
serves the entire college community through its music organizations, its
opportunity for private lessons, the concerts by the ensembles, recitals by
students and faculty members, and through courses which may be taken in
partial fulfillment of the Group I requirement in General Education.
Credit may be earned in three ensembles, the Maroon and Gold
Band, the Concert Choir, and the Women's Choral Ensemble. There are
four non-credit ensembles, the College-Community Orchestra, Men's Glee
Club, Studio Band, and Madrigal Singers. Enrollment in the ensembles is
open upon selection after director's audition. The Ensembles are described
as courses 35.111
35.117.
Private lessons in organ, piano, strings, woodwinds, brasses, and
voice are available to properly qualified students. As many as six semester
hours may be earned through private lessons in one of these instruments in
as many consecutive semesters. The number of students accepted for
private lessons is limited by available faculty, and continuation is reserved
for those who exhibit continued development. Private lessons are
described as courses 35.141 - 35.196.

admission to teacher education takes place after the student has
completed 32 or more semester hours and has taken the
Sophomore Field Experience intended to help him to assess his
decision. Scholarship and pertinent personal attributes are
weighed in determining admission to teacher education; the
criteria reflect the responsibility of a college whose recommendation is a sufficient basis for the issuing of a teacher's
certificate. If a student who was tentatively enrolled in the
School of Professional Studies is not admitted to teacher
education, he must transfer to the School of Arts and Sciences.

Professional

Retention in Teacher Education

Admission to teacher education

is

equivalent to candidacy

for the degree, Bachelor of Science in Education. Candidacy for
this degree is revoked in case of failure to maintain the required
Quality Point Average and may be revoked for other sufficient
reason. If candidacy is revoked but the student is otherwise
eligible to remain in the College he is transferred to the School
of Arts and Sciences; in this case he must reapply for admission
to teacher education if he wishes to be reinstated.

Teacher Education are required to engage in a
experience during which they work in and

observe the educational process in a school of their choice. It is
intended that this experience will help the student decide
before the Junior year whether he wishes to follow a career in
teaching. Participants are exposed to many aspects of teaching
and to the operation of the whole school, thus providing
experience that should increase the relevancy of course work in
professional education.
Other field experiences in addition to student teaching are
participated in as part of certain courses in professional
education; these may take the form of field trips, observations,

and micro-teaching.
Student Teaching
Pre-professional teacher education culminates in student
teaching for a semester in public schools of Pennsylvania.

Undergraduates who have satisfied the prerequisites for
student teaching courses are assigned to student teaching during

first or second semester of their senior year. They are placed
according to the availability of qualified cooperating teachers in
their subject area and the willingness of schools with programs
approved by the College to cooperate with the College in its
program in Teacher Education. Students should be prepared to
accept assignments in any of the student teaching centers.
The student teaching semester is divided into two equal
periods; this provides an opportunity for students to teach at
two grade levels and frequently in two socio-economic environments.

the

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

Student Teaching Centers

The College selects its student teaching centers and
cooperating teachers in urban, suburban, and rural areas.
Students in Elementary Education are assigned to central
Pennsylvania, suburban Philadelphia, and certain inner-city
locations. Students in Secondary Education may be assigned to
teach in central Pennsylvania, suburban Philadelphia, or in the
cities of Philadelphia and
Harrisburg. Business Education
student teaching centers are located in the Bloomsburg,
Allen town, and Williamsport areas. Students in the Division of
Human Resources and Services are assigned to the White Haven
State School and Hospital, Selinsgrove State School and
Hospital, and to public schools located in central and southeastern Pennsylvania.

MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY CURRICULUM
(Dr.

Donald Rabb, Curriculum Coordinator)

The formal program in Medical Technology consists of 98
semester hours of courses prescribed by the College, followed
by one year of clinical study and experience in an affiliated
School of Medical Technology. Bloomsburg State College has
formed affiliations with: Abington Memorial Hospital, Abington, Pa.; Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pa. (major
affiliate); Lancaster General Hospital, Lancaster, Pa.; Robert
Packer Hospital, Sayre, Pa.; Wilkes-Barre General Hospital,
Wilkes Barre, Pa.
The student enrolls initially in the School of Arts and
Sciences and follows the list of courses prescribed in the
program. Application for transfer to the School of Professional
Studies and formal admission to Medical Technology may be
made after the student has earned thirty semester hours of
credit and before the completion of sixty-four semester hours.
Selection of candidates for admission to the clinical year is
determined jointly by the College and the Medical Center.
Students who are not selected for admission to the
program may continue to take the prescribed courses and may
apply as individuals to other approved hospital programs.
Assistance in making application is offered by the College, but
admission is determined solely by the hospital. A student who
obtains admission to an approved hospital program is thereupon
granted formal admission to the program in Medical Technology, with all of the privileges pertaining thereto.
The candidate may choose to satisfy either of two degrees
as follows: the degree, Bachelor of Science in Medical Technology (B.S. in Med. Tech.) is conferred upon successful
completion of the prescribed course work, the certification to
the College of successful clinic experience, and the passing of
the examination of the Board of Registry of Medical Technologists; or the degree Bachelor of Science (B.S.) will be conferred

THE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION CURRICULUM

Degree

(B.S.),

is

conferred upon

successful completion of the Business Administration curricu-

Objectives.

The student in Business Administration should aim to
develop specialized knowledge and skills applicable to his first
employment. He should also consider it important to develop
his potential for future growth that may lead to an eventual
position of leadership; for this purpose he should seek a modern
understanding of business in its relationship to society, of
economic forces, of the intellectual processes involved in
management decision-making and the modern decision-making
tools, and he should be concerned for his personal development
in such attributes as intellectual discipline and culture. These
concerns should help him determine his choice of elective
courses both in general education and in Business Administration subjects.
