GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION
Bloomsburg State College,

owned

as

one of the fourteen

state-

institutions of higher education in Pennsylvania, has

charged by the

Commonwealth to

been

serve as "... a center of learn-

youth of Pennsylvania
the arts and sciences and to provide able and dedicated

ing for the best possible education of the
in

teachers.

.

."

The arts and sciences are regarded as fundamental to all of
the activities implied by this charge. During the past several
years, the College has moved to strengthen the academic departments and to expand the range of services through the addition
of pre-professional programs, continuing education, programs in
the health-related sciences and business administration.
Although dedicated primarily to undergraduate work, the
offers masters degrees in teacher education and in
certain academic disciplines.
Bloomsburg State College welcomes qualified students,
faculty and staff without regard to racial, religious or ethnic
College

backgrounds.
1.2

ORGANIZATION

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

is

described in the appropriate chapter of this catalogue.

LOCATION

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

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.

Henry

A

building

now known

as Carver Hall in

memory

of

Carver, principal at the time, was erected in 1867.

Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Bloomsburg Literary Institute became Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Normal School
in 1869; it continued under this name and organization until
1916 when it was purchased by the Commonwealth and called
Bloomsburg State Normal School.
Although the high school movement was making the preparatory curriculum unnecessary, it was continued until 1920;
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 Bachelor of Arts degree for liberal arts programs in
humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. In 1960, graduate study leading to the Master of Education degree was inaugurated. In 1968, initial approval was received for the degree,
Master of Arts and in 1970 for the degree, Master of Science.
Current efforts are directed toward development as a multiple-purpose college offering liberal arts and teacher education
curricula at the undergraduate and master's degree levels, and
business and other professional curricula in vocations other than
teaching as these are suited to the resources of the College.

ACCREDITATION
Bloomsburg State College

is fully accredited by the Middle
and Secondary Schools, the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education, and
the Pennsylvania State Board of Education.
The College is recognized by the American Chemical Soci-

States Association of Colleges

a02 COLLEGE POLICY
Individual rights and freedoms will be respected within the
context of the educational mission. No community, however,
can survive when extreme pressure for undirected change or unyielding resistance to necessary change produces an irreconcilable paralysis. Disruption is easy, but unnecessary disruption
fosters an atmosphere of uneasiness, dissatisfaction, and stagnation. Mutual respect for both reason and reasonableness leads to

constructive action.

Students are responsible for the

rules, policies,

tions as stated in the Catalogue, Pilot (Student

and

handbook), and

the Residence Hall Manuals. The Bloomsburg State College Joint
Statements on Rights, Freedoms and Responsibilities of Students has been acknowledged as a guiding principle in the normal
operation of the College.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT

Bloomsburg State College cooperates with the College Entrance Examination Board in awarding college credit to the high
school student who successfully completes Advanced Placement
Examinations. Results of the Advanced Placement Examinations
should be submitted to the Director of Admissions for evaluation. A score of 5 or 4 exempts a student from the introductory
course in the tested area and gives credit. A score of 3 exempts
the student, without credit, from the introductory course. No
advanced placement is given for grades of 2 or 1.
Credits may be awarded for College Level Examination Program (CLEP) results at the discretion of the appropriate dean.
Advanced placement may be awarded in English Composition after considerations of verbal standardized test results and
high school achievement.

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Change of Schedule

A student may change his/her semester schedule prior to
the close of the fifth day of classes of the semester. Application
for change is made to the registrar on a form which may be
secured from the offices of the deans or registrar. The consent
of the adviser is not prerequisite to a change, but the student is
responsible for informing the adviser of the change. Changes are
subject to available space in classes to which the student pro-

poses to transfer. Students may attend classes in accordance with
an amended schedule only after certification by the Registrar's
Office that the change has been executed officially.
Transfer of Curriculum

A student who wishes to transfer from one curriculum to
another must file a request 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 pre-scheduling period.
Permission to enter the new curriculum may require approval of the dean of the school in which it is offered; in this
case, approval will depend on available space and may depend on
recommendations from advisers and counselors.
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, in accordance with the following procedures and regulations:
A withdrawal application card is secured from the Registrar's Office. The student has withdrawn when he has completed
this card and filed it with the Registrar.
The grade upon withdrawal is determined by the following
policy: If the date of withdrawal is prior to the close of the fifth
day of classes following the date established as the end of the
first half of the semester, the grade of WP is reported. If a student withdraws subsequent to that date, the grade of WP is reported only if the student is currently passing on the withdrawal
date as certified by the Registrar, with the grade of WF required
if the student is failing the course. In case a student had been absent for a prolonged period prior to the withdrawal date, with
the absence reliably confirmed as due to causes beyond his/her
control, the Vice President for Academic Affairs, upon request
of the student, will direct the instructor to make the grade retroactive to the first day of absence due to this cause rather than to
the date of withdrawal.

Withdrawal from the College

A

student may withdraw from the College by securing an
withdrawal from from the counseling center and completing and filing it as directed. The withdrawal process includes
the clearing of all financial obligations, an exit interview with the
director of Financial Aid, and the return of the ID card and meal
ticket. Grades are given in accordance with the policy stated
under "Withdrawal from a Course." An individual who discontinues attendance without completing the official withdrawal
process and clearing of all obligations to the college waives the
right to a transcript and is denied future readmission.
Policies which cover reimbursements are stated in the chapofficial

ter

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. Suitable courses outside the specialization taken on Pass- Fail basis may be applied toward the General
Education requirements. (See Chapter 6.)
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; 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.

/

/

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES

A student who has received a grade of E in a course may
not take it later on a Pass-Fail basis.
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 in 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 Dean of the
School.
Repeating Courses

A student may repeat a maximum of four courses in which
he has grades of E. He may not repeat a course in which he has
previously earned a passing grade.
Credit

A

by Examination
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
for

Academic

Affairs.

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.

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES
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 that
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 this institution.

Auditing of Courses

A full-time student wno is enrolled for less than seventeen
semester hours of course work may, with consent of the VicePresident for Academic Affairs, register for one course as an
auditor. If he attends at least three-fourths of the regular class
meetings the grade of V will be reported by the instructor and
the course will be entered on 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
the provision that when computing the fee paid by the student
the course audited will be counted the same as if it were taken
for credit. Individuals who are not enrolled as students may
apply for audit privileges through the Director of Continuing
Education; acceptance depends upon such factors as space in
class and educational background.

whereby the work which remained to be done may be completed
and graded. When the work has been completed, a permanent
grade is submitted by the instructor to replace the grade of "I".
Unless specifically stated in a written plan filed in the RegOffice it is assumed that the work will be completed
prior to the end of the next semester. If the plan is not fulfilled,
the grade of "I" remains a part of the student's record (it is not

EVALUATION OF TRANSFER CREDITS

Evaluation of credit earned in other institutions is made by
the dean of the school in which the student has chosen his curriculum, subject to confirmation by the Vice-President for Aca-

demic

Affairs.

Acceptable courses must have been completed in an accredited college or university or in a recognized or accredited junior
college or community college. Courses must be applicable to the
student's curriculum either as substitutes for required courses or
as electives; credit will be deleted if the student subsequently
registers for courses which substantially duplicate the content
of courses accepted for transfer.
A student is entitled to an opportunity to validate by
examination a course presented for transfer when the substitution of transfer credit for a required course is in question because the course was taken in an unaccredited institution or because of uncertainty concerning the syllabus or standards of the
course. When they are available, standardized examinations are
used.

Correspondence courses are subject to acceptance to a total
if taken from an
accredited college or university and acceptable by that institution toward graduation in a baccalaureate degree curriculum
Courses taken in another institution on a Pass-Fail basis are
acceptable if they conform to the conditions for such grades at
Bloomsburg State College.
A transfer student is issued an evaluation sheet which
stipulates the requirements for graduation which remain to be
met; this is subject to revision in the light of subsequent changes
that does not exceed fifteen semester hours

in the evaluation of the transcript.

Students of Bloomsburg State College may take courses in
other accredited institutions and submit the credit for transfer,
provided the courses have been approved in advance by the VicePresident for Academic Affairs.
(See Section 5.12 for limitations on credit transferred from
junior colleges and similar institutions.)

CHEATING AND PLAGIARISM

Attempts by students to improve grades by cheating in
and examinations or by plagiarism in papers submitted to
the instructor are offenses subject to penalties which may be as
tests

severe as suspension or expulsion.

The instructor may assess penalties ranging from a privately
administered reprimand to a grade of E in the course. If the offense appears to merit a more severe penalty, the instructor is responsible for initiating a request for formal consideration by the
Student- Faculty Judiciary.
In order to avoid the appearance of plagiarism resulting
from ignorance of the proper use of source materials, the student
should study the conventions governing use of sources. Such
information can be obtained from instructors or from handbooks found in the Library.

State College. Former students of the College who were certificated for teaching by completing two or three years of college

work and who

are candidates for the Bachelor of Science in
Education degree, must complete at least one half of the remaining work for the degree in residence. Residence credit is given
for courses taught on the Bloomsburg State College campus in
a semester, a summer term, in evening or Saturday classes for
teachers, and for off-campus student teaching.

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

Prescription of general education courses has been set at
a minimum in order to give each student, with the help of an
adviser, the opportunity to survey his previous background and
choose new intellectual experiences that provide opportunity for
optimum growth. This policy places important responsibility
upon the student for discrimination in making decisions.
If the student's chosen curriculum requires courses which
are also designated as acceptable for general education distribution requirements, the student may elect to apply them toward
both specialization and general education. The credit for such
courses is counted only once in fulfilling the total graduation

GENERAL INFORMATION

Degrees

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

mathematics.

The aim of a program which leads to the Bachelor of Science degree is to offer opportunity for liberal education together
with a specialization that may have the potential of application.
There are two patterns for the Bachelor of Arts degree, a
pattern of emphasis upon a broad field and a pattern with a
major in one of the academic disciplines.

PRE-PROFESSIONAL STUDY AND ADVISEMENT

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

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

to be acceptable. The Broad Area Curriculum described in Section 7.2 also lends itself to the needs of a pre-legal student.

Each summer, the Department offers study programs
abroad. Language majors are encouraged to participate in one
of these programs before graduating.
Arts and Sciences Majors

Majors are offered in French, German and Spanish. A major
for the B.A. degree requires a minimum of 30 semester hours in
the language in courses beyond 101, 102; if a student is exempt
from any required courses, he takes additional advanced electives as substitutes.

Pennsylvania is a party to the Interstate Agreement on
Qualifications for Educational Personnel which provides that
holders of Pennsylvania certificates are eligible for certificates
in the other states which are parties to the agreement. Currently, there are twenty-three such states.

Admission to Teacher Education

who

wish to take teacher education curricula enroll tentatively in the School of Professional Studies and schedule courses in harmony with the requirements of the program
they wish to follow. In due course the students apply for admission to teacher education. Usually, the screening for 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 reStudents

whose recommendation

is

a sufficient

basis for the issuing of a teacher's certificate. If a stu'dent

who

was tentatively enrolled in the School of Professional Studies is
not admitted to teacher education, he is transferred to the
School of Arts and Sciences.

Retention in Teacher Education

Admission to teacher education

is

equivalent to candidacy

for the degree, Bachelor of Science in Education.

Candidacy for

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.

Field Experience

Students in Teacher Education are required to engage in a
field experience during which they work in and observe the educational process in a school of their choice. It is intended that this experience will help the 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
the first or second semester of their senior year. They are placed
according to the availability of qualified cooperating teachers in
their subject area and the willingness of schools with programs
approved by the College to cooperate with the College in its
program in Teacher Education. Students should be prepared to
accept assignments in any of the student teaching centers.

The curriculum in elementary education is designed to prepare for beginning teaching positions in the elementary schools.
The curriculum consists of four sets of courses as follows:

A

General Education. (See Section 6.3)

B. Academic Background courses: (A teacher in the elementary
school must be prepared to teach many subjects. To provide the
background, the curriculum requires a broad distribution of academic
background courses; frequently, these may be elected from courses
which are designated as General Education courses and therefore
may be counted also toward the General Education requirement.)
Mathematics, 6 semester hours; Biology, 3 semester hours; Chemistry
or Physics or General Physical Science, 3 semester hours; Elective

DEPARTMENT OF SPECIAL EDUCATION

8.03

The Department of Special Education offers a certification
program for teachers of Mentally Retarded children, an area of
concentration for students in Elementary Education and the
courses and experiences which support these curricula.
The Department of Special Education, located in Navy Hall,
is equipped with therapy rooms, television equipment and equipment and materials used in the training of exceptional children.
Students enrolled in Special Education have the opportunity of participating in practicum with the mentally retarded in
supervised and graded special classes. After the completion of
course work, students participate in full-time student teaching
in White Haven State School and Hospital, Selinsgrove State
School and Hospital, Laurelton State School and Hospital, Pennhurst State School and Hospital, and to public schools in Chester,
Columbia, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Lycoming, Montgomery, Montour, Northampton, Northumberland, Lehigh, Bucks, Snyder,
Sullivan and Centre Counties. A special class conducted by Susquehanna Intermediate Unit and housed in Navy Hall provides
opportunity for observation and participation.
Continued enrollment in the Special Education curriculum
after the sophomore year is limited to the number of students
who can be accommodated in clinical practice during the junior
and senior years.
Sophomores who have been tentatively enrolled in the curriculum may apply for continued enrollment as part of their
application for admission to teacher education. If admitted to
teacher education, selection for Special Education is made by
the faculty of the Special Education department, assisted by
representative seniors, in the light of the applicant's academic
performance and professional promise.
Applicants who are not selected for Special Education
should consult the coordinator of academic advisement concerning transfer to another curriculum. They are, however, eligible
to reapply for Special Education during the next selection
period.

GRADUATE STUDIES

DEGREES

11.1

Graduate study was inaugurated

in

1960 with programs

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

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

scholarship in an academic discipline. The objective of programs
leading to the Master of Science degree is to develop mature
scholarship and competence, especially as these are related to
application.

SCHEDULE OF CLASSES

11.2

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

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