Computer Services Center
Bloomsburg University has made extensive use of computers for more than a
decade. Current computing needs for instruction, management and research are met by
a central computer, the UNIVAC 1 100-61, a powerful and versatile central processing
and microcomputers scattered throughout the campus. The central system, with
memory, is directly accessible by
both centrally located and remote termi- nals. Controlled by the OS- 11 00 operating
system, the central operation supports all normal tape, disc, remote, batch and interactive functions. The Distributed Communicative Processor, a minicomputer attached
to the main system, currently supports in excess of 100 student, faculty, and administraunit,
four million bytes (4 megabytes) or characters of main
tive terminals.
The
following
programming languages are available by mainframe access:
PL/1, and SNOBOL. In
ASSEMBLER, BASIC, COBOL, FORTRAN, PASCAL,
addition,
numerous
these include
special purpose languages
ASET, an
and package programs are available;
author's language for computer assisted instruction (CAI), and
and math programs such as SCSS, SPSS, BMD, and MATH PAK.
Complementing the UNIVAC System is a microcomputer lab located adjacent
to the student terminal room. The lab presently includes 16 microcomputers with disk
drives and color monitors. Printers have graphic capabilities. Several units have 64K
RAM allowing PASCAL and LOGO to be run. Additional microcomputers are located
in various departments on campus. Plans have been made to triple the number of micros
on campus in the very near future.
During the fall and spring semesters, access hours normally are 7:00 a.m. to 2:00
a.m., Monday and Friday; Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.; Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00
statistical
a.m. Additional hours are scheduled as needed.
Within many academic programs including the Computer and Infor- mation
Science major, students are exposed to the contemporary computer and the data
processing technology of a data-based system, on-line inquiry, time sharing, program
development from a terminal, and dynamically changing files. Faculty working directly
with the computer have increased time to use computer assisted instruction (CAI)
material such as tutorials, drills and simulations to supplement classroom and lab
instruction.

STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
Introduction
It is
desirable for each student to
and residence
become involved
in extra-
curricular organiza-
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,
tions
hall
discussion groups, athletics, judicial proceedings, and a variety of student organizations.
Commuting
students are urged to work out travel schedules which permit them
to participate in activities
and
to
spend as
much time
as possible on
campus.
The educational value
of these service depends upon the effort and involvement
of each student, whether resident or commuter.

Although students' housing preferences are considered whenever possible, the
University reserves the right to assign rooms and roommates.
Housing and food services are provided on a combined basis only for students
living in the residence halls. Housing and food contracts are binding until the end of the
academic year and may not be transferred or reassigned.
Freshmen under 21 years of age are required to reside on campus or commute
from the homes of their parents. If extenuating circumstances justify other housing
arrangements, a written request for waiver of this residency requirement must be
submitted to the Director of Residence Life.
Although transfer students may indicate a preference for residence hall accommodations, on-campus housing is not guaranteed. Transfers who wish to live on campus
should contact the Residence Life Office upon acceptance to the university.
residence halls are described in section
A resident student who has earned 65 semester hours or less at the completion of

Although students must rely on their own initiative to find suitable accommodations, the Residence Life Office offers many programs and services for persons seeking

housing opportunities, prepares housing and landlord directories, and provides other
useful information of interest to student/faculty tenants and their landlords. Before any
rental property is accepted for publication in the University housing directory, the owner
must submit his/her premises to an inspection by the town building code inspector and
sign a statement pledging to provide equal opportunity in the rental of the property.

sity.
Accident and sickness insurance coverage is REQUIRED by Bloomsburg UniverStudents not having appropriate coverage must enroll in the insurance plan offered
by the University.
The current policy will pay up to $2,500 for medical expenses incurred within 52
weeks from the date of the first treatment for each sickness or accident which causes loss
commencing during the term insured. Each sickness will be covered on an allocated basis.
For example, specific amounts are allocated for hospital room charges, surgical
operations, and up to $ 1 5 per visit to the physician starting with the second visit. A major
medical clause will reimburse a student for 80' of all reasonable expenses actually
incurred in excess of $2,500 up to but not to exceed $10,000. Coverage is also available
for a dependent's spouse, children up to 19 years of age, or maternity expenses. This
policy is in effect 24 hours a day, for 1 2 months. An enrollment period of three weeks will
occur at the beginning of each semester and summer school.
Filing of all claims will be the responsibility of the student. An itemized bill must
be submitted with claims which are available at the University Health Center.
Athletic Insurance
All students participating in intercollegiate sports have insurance coverage up to
$92,000 paid for by the Community Government Association. Athletic insurance covers
injuries arising while practicing, playing, or traveling as a member of an athletic team
but does not cover injuries sustained in intramural sports or other injuries or illnesses.
The basic benefit period for treatment per injury is 52 weeks, with a maximum
benefit of $2,500. Benefits are payable in excess of all other insurance on claims involving
hospitalization or surgery. This means that the university insurance company is the
PRIMARY insurer on ALL claims other than those requiring hospitali- zation or
surgery. Injuries involving hospitalization or requiring a surgical procedure must be
claimed first under the parent's insurance policy. Should the parent have no other
coverage, the university:s insurer would then become primary.
Services/49
For claims which exceed $2,500 within two years, a catastrophe plan becomes
up to $90,000 extending the benefit period to a maximum of three
years. The catastrophe benefit is on a 80/20 co-insurance basis. Also, the $90,000
catastrophe coverage is on an EXCESS basis. This means any claim that exceeds the
basic $2,500 must be submitted to the athlete:s personal insur- ance company prior to any
payment or consideration by the university's company.
The maximum benefit for injury to sound natural teeth is $200 per tooth. Damage
to temporary teeth (bridge, partial, etc.) is not covered.

Procedures are also available to provide students with a system to grieve
complaints of alleged injustices relating to violation, misinterpretation or discriminatory
application of non-academic policies and procedures, and/or the conduct of professional,
non-professional and student employees. These procedures are outlined in the Pilot.
3.12 Representative
Assembly
The Representative Assembly seeks to apply the principle of collegiality to
governance. It is an organization of students, faculty, administrative officers and support
staff who are elected by their peers, to encourage communication, and promote increased
participation of the varied sectors of the university community in policy-making.
The Assembly serves as a forum for the discussion of institutional matters, a
framework for the maintenance of a coordinated committee system, and an organization
to recommend policies. Six standing committees, academic affairs, administration,
student life human relations, institutional life, and planning, coordinate the work of
several sub-committees and report regularly to the Assembly.

potential of an applicant when it appears that the environmental background may have
adversely affected grades and/or standardized test scores. The Dean of Admissions may
require an applicant for the Center for Academic Development to file supplementary
information as is needed for proper consideration.
Opportunities for financial aid are described in a brochure which may be secured

Students, who, having been formally admitted to degree study and attended
Bloomsburg University, fail to enroll for any academic semester without being on a
temporary withdrawal, regardless of the reason, must apply for readmission if they wish
to re-enter.
Readmitted students are responsible for the graduation requirements and
academic policies which exist at the time of reentrance.
The Dean of Admissions may require an applicant for readmission to file a letter
containing such supplementary information as is needed for proper consideration.
Students under academic dismissal are ineligible for readmission for one calendar
year. They should present evidence of successful achievement at another college or
university as part of any application for readmission.
The grade and credit entries recorded prior to readmission of students under
academic dismissal do not enter into subsequent computations of the quality point

Advanced Placement And C.L.E.P.
A student may receive a maximum total of 64 semester hours of credit by
examination or experiential learning. Credit may be awarded for successful completion
of institutional examinations and/or approved external examinations. The university
recognizes two external examination programs: the College Level Examination Program
(CLEP) and the Advanced Placement Program of the College Board.
The minimum score for awarding credit for general CLEP examinations is the
50th percentile of the Sophomore national norms. Credit is awarded for the subject
CLEP examinations for achievement at or above the mean score achieved by students in
the national norm sample who earned the grade of "C" in a regular college course in the
subject. Minimum scores for awarding credit and the amount of credit granted can be
secured by writing the Dean of Admissions.
A score of 5 or 4 on an Advanced Placement examination exempts a student from
the introductory course in the tested area and gives credit. Credit and advanced
placement are awarded in Calculus for a grade of 3 A score of 3 in all other areas exempts
a student, without credit, from the introductory course. Advanced placement is not
granted for grades of 2 or
Advanced placement may be granted in English Composition after consideration

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Academic policies and practices are subject to change; the policies of this chapter are
those authorized as of March 1, 1984. If there are subsequent changes which are
effective for 1984-85, insofar as possible, these will be announced in the Pilot; changes
made after publication of the Pilot are announced in the Campus Voice.
5.01 Registration Policies
And Practices
Students with disabilities should contact the Office of the Registrar to
special arrangements for scheduling of classes
and
make
registration.
Student Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the student to know and observe the academic policies
and regulations of the university; to confine registration to courses for which the
prerequisites have been satisfied and to meet the requirements for graduation.
In case of changes by the university in graduation or curriculum requirements;
degree students who attend without interruption may choose to satisfy either the
requirements as they existed at the time of their entrance or the new requirements; if they
elect to satisfy the new requirements they are responsible for them in toto. All students
who are readmitted to the university and part-time students must apply to the Vice
President for Academic Affairs for permission to be graduated under the requirements
existing at the time of their original admission to Bloomsburg.
Academic Advisement
Entering students who upon application for admission indicated their preferred
curriculum are assigned to faculty advisers who specialize in advisement in these areas.
Assignments to advisors are made by the Coordinator of Academic Advisement with
advice of department chairpersons and deans.
Applicants for admission who are undecided about their curriculum should state
undeclared on the application instead of specifying a curriculum. These applicants will
be considered as General Studies students.
Students with questions or problems should seek assistance in the Office of
Academic Advisement, Benjamin Franklin Building.
Students seeking tutorial services or other developmental studies support should
contact the Tutorial Coordinator in the Center for Academic Development. This
individual works closely with departmental advisors, the Center's Writing Coordinator,
Reading Coordinator, and Math Coordinator, psychological counselor and the Recruitment and Orientation Specialist. A variety of academic support services can be tailored
to meet the need of the individual student.
Registration and Scheduling of Classes
Students register by scheduling classes. The scheduling of classes is usually
completed during the prior semester. Classes in progress for the current semester always
constitute an obligation. All registration procedures for the next semester shall not
conflict with this obligation. The dates for registration and advisement are announced by
the Registrar. To register, students obtain a class schedule booklet, meet with their
advisors and complete a registration form which is then presented to the Registrar.
Seniors will be registered first, followed by juniors, sophomores, and freshmen.
Incoming freshmen for the fall semester will have their schedules prepared in advance
with opportunity for counseling and schedule changes during the orientation period.

Change of Registration (Schedule Changes)
A course or courses may be dropped with the exception of first semester freshmen
by the student during the schedule change period (the first six days of classes) but none
may be added except for extenuating circumstances.
All courses agreed to with the advisor prior to registration shall constitute a full
class schedule. Should the student drop a course during the schedule change period (the
first six days of the semester), the student will not be permitted to add a course except
under extenuating circumstances.

available space and may depend on recommendations from advisors.
Withdrawal From a Course
Any student except a first semester freshman may drop a course during the
schedule change period (the first six days of the semester). However, a student may not
add a course except under circumstances outlined in Policy 3439, "Students Scheduling
Policy." After the schedule change period and continuing until one week past the middle
of the semester, if a student withdraws from a course a grade of "W" will be recorded.

Auditing of Courses
A full-time student who is enrolled for less than seventeen hours of course work
may, with consent of the appropriate dean and, subject to attendance fees as stated in
Section 2.2, register for one course as an auditor. If the registrant 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 the 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 Dean of Extended Programs. Acceptance depends upon such
factors as space in class and educational background.
Class Standing
A
student has academic standing as a freshman
until
he/she 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 after 96 or more semester hours of credit. Transfer credit,
if any, is included in these figures.

Incomplete. This grade is given only when the student has been unable to
complete certain of the obligations of the course due to circumstances beyond his/her
control and when a plan for completion of the course requirements is developed by both
the student and the instructor. 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 Registrar's Office, it is
assumed that the work will be completed prior to the end of the next semester. If the plan

Evaluation of credit earned at other institutions by incoming transfer students
and by readmitted students who earned credit subsequent to their prior enrollment at
Bloomsburg is made in the Admissions Office with guidelines provided by the
department chairperson, cooperatively established by the school dean. 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 in
the evaluation of the transcript.
5.09 Cheating
And Plagiarism
Attempts by students to improve grades by cheating in tests and examinations or
by plagiarism in papers submitted to the instructor are offenses subject to penalties
which may be as severe as suspension or expulsion from school.
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 Board.
In order to avoid the appearance of plagiarism resulting from ignorance of the
proper use of source materials, the student should study the practices governing use of
sources. Such information can be obtained from instructors or from handbooks found in
the library.
5.11 Residence
Requirement
At least 32 of the last 64 semester hours credited toward a baccalaureate degree
must be taken in residence at Bloomsburg University. Former Bloomsburg students, who
are certified for teaching by completing two or three years of college work and who are

Graduate Courses In Senior Year
Seniors needing fewer than eighteen semester hours of course work to satisfy their
requirements for the baccalaureate degree may, with approval of the department
chairperson, apply to the Dean of Graduate Studies for permission to supplement their
undergraduate courses with graduate courses. Graduate credit for graduate courses will
be awarded upon verification of completion of the undergraduate degree.
5.13
Graduation Requirements
A candidate for graduation for the baccalaureate degree must have earned a 2.00
and
academic and other applicable requirements.
The last 64 semester hours of credit counted toward graduation must be in courses
taken in four-year degree-granting institutions. At least 32 of the last 64 semester hours
credited toward baccalaureate degree must be taken as residence credit at Bloomsburg
University. Residence credit is given for courses by Bloomsburg University for college
credit. Exceptions to this policy will be made only by the dean with the recommendation
of the appropriate department chairperson.
Graduation from Bloomsburg University requires the successful completion of at
least 128 semester hours to include: 1. Completion of the curriculum of an approved
degree program; 2. Completion of general education requirements. A semester hour is

UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULA:
Introduction
6.1
Choice Of Curriculum
The undergraduate curricula are administered by three colleges; the College of
Arts and Sciences, the College of Professional Studies, and the College of Business, and
the School of Extended Programs. The requirements for the curricula are stated in the
chapters which deal with these colleges.
Upon admission, students are admitted to seven (7) broad academic categories.
(See section 4.02). A student must have committed himself/herself and received
admission to a specific major by the end of the sophomore year. (Students who transfer
to Bloomsburg University with junior standing have a one semester grace period on this
requirement.)
When a student makes a tentative choice of a major he/she is assigned
preliminary or prerequisite courses required in that major. In curricula where admission
is selective or restrictive at the junior year entry-level, as in the case in several programs
in the College of Professional Studies, the university is not bound to admit the student if
he/she is not admissable according to the competition for available spaces or other
selective criteria.
Students electing to major in two departments must have a major advisor in each
department, meet all of the major requirements of each department and all of the general
education requirements. (See Section 6.4.) Double majors in some departments may
require more than the minimum 128 credits for graduation. Double majors in
departments in two different schools must have the permission of both college deans to
declare a double major.
6.2
Credit
Each curriculum which leads to a baccalaureate degree requires the successful
completion of 128 semester hours of credit. A semester hour is defined as the credit for
one weekly period of fifty minutes in lecture, discussion, or recitation for one semester.
In case a course requires laboratory, shop or studio experience,
two or
in
some cases three
periods are considered as equivalent to one period of lecture, discussion or recitation.
6.3
Non-credit Developmental Courses
Academic Development, a student,

enroll in developmental courses. These courses serve to supplement the student's
academic experience and are not counted toward credit requirements for graduation.

COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
7.
7.1
General Administration
The College of Arts and Sciences is composed of seventeen academic departments
all
of which, except Health, Physical Education and Athletics, offer programs leading to
either the Bachelor of Science or the Bachelor of Arts degree or both.
Bloomsburg was
first
authorized to offer the Bachelor of Arts degree in
1
960 and
the Bachelor of Science in 1963. After a period of slow growth in the early 1960's,
programs, departments, and enrollments in Arts and Sciences have increased steadily.
Growth of the College of Arts and Sciences has also made Bloomsburg more
attractive to highly qualified, promising faculty, many of whom have been appointed in
the last decade.
Degrees
The
degrees, Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Bachelor of Science (B.S.) are
conferred for programs offered
The aim
in the
College of Arts and Sciences.
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 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-Law
Students who wish to prepare to study law should familiarize themselves with the
entrance requirements of law schools they are considering. A Pre-Law Advisory
Committee makes a continuing study of such schools; its members will advise students
in the choice of courses. Most law schools will consider applications from students with
widely varying majors, placing emphasis on a thoroughly cultivated mind rather than
any specific body of knowledge.

admission to Bloomsburg, or early enough in the student's program to permit him/her
to complete all required prerequisite courses. Results from aptitude and achievement
tests, records of scholastic achievement, and other pertinent information will be
exchanged between institutions to aid both in guiding and counseling enrolled students
and prospective students. A list of declared students' admissions profiles will be prepared
by the Bloomsburg University admissions office each semester and forwarded to the
appropriate office at Penn State to provide some indication of the number and academic
quality of individuals entering the 3-2 program.
Bloomsburg University may require higher academic standards for its generic
students seeking to transfer. To insure referral of students who will make a significant
contribution to the engineering profession, and to increase the likelihood of their success
within the program, the Bloomsburg faculty has instituted the minimum standard of a
2.75 quality point average (4.00 = A) in all required prerequisite courses. The overall
QPA for transfer is either 2.50 or 3.0 depending on the engineering program.
116/Engineering and Liberal Arts
A Pre-Engineering Advisory Committee consisting of representatives from each
department preparing students for study in the 3-2 program, acts as the screening and
recommending committee responsible for upholding the tenets of this agreement. This
committee assists student recruitment and advisement and monitors any changes
proposed in the cooperative agreement, communicating these changes to the Dean of
Arts and Sciences in an advisory role.
The Pennsylvania State University may require a higher grade point average
because of space availability, departmental facilities, or changes in programs. Any
proposed change in the minimum quality point average will be communicated in writing
between institutional representatives as soon as the need for change is identified. All
changes will become effective with those students entering Bloomsburg University in the

that the student should be admitted to the 3-2 program. The application and supporting
credentials will be evaluated by the appropriate officer in the Admissions Office and the
Office of the Dean of the College of Engineering at The Pennsylania State University.
If the applicant meets the minimum requirements, the applicant will be offered
provisional admission to the Pennsylvania State Univerity in the 3-2 program commencing with the Fall term.

HISTORY SATELLITE PROGRAM
The history
satellite course
program
is
an innovative approach
to provide
greater flexibility in the history curriculum, to offer students more choice and better
scheduling opportunities to enroll in history courses. Under the proposal a designated
three semester credit history course can be offered at a reduced credit value or for an
increased one semester credit value equivalent to class time and course content. Two
approaches, "satellite segment course" and "satellite derivation course" are available
for a student to take a fraction or an extension of an existing three credit semester
course. The "satellite segment course" permits a student to enroll in a reduced portion
of a designated course for either one or two credits. The "satellite derivation course"
allows a student to enroll in a specially designed one semester credit course, for an
enrichment or concentrated study of a significant topic or theme from the content of the
three semester credit course. Check the undergraduate schedule of courses for specific
satellite offerings each semester.

to maintain the required Quality Point Average and may be revoked for other sufficient
reasons. If candidacy is revoked but the student is otherwise eligible to remain in the
University, he/she may transfer to other university programs. The student who wishes
to be reinstated in teacher education must reapply for admission.
Field Experience
Students in teacher education are required to engage in the field experiences
during which they work in and observe the educational process in the schools. It is
intended that these experiences will help the students decide whether they wish to follow
careers in teaching. Participants are exposed to many aspects of teaching and to the
operation of the schools, thus providing experience that should increase the relevanc\ of
course work
in professional
education.
Field experiences, in addition to student teaching, are a part of courses
in
professional education. These include field trips, observations, micro-teaching and
assisting teachers in school settings.

Program Description
The
is to prepare personnel to work in public schools,
and rehabilitation centers with individuals who are handicapped in
speech, hearing, and language. The objective for the interpreter training curriculum is
to prepare individuals to facilitate communication between deaf, hearing impaired and
hearing persons in educational, medical, legal, theatrical and social situations.
Upon successful completion of the curriculum and recommendation by the
Univerisity, certification in speech correction is granted by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. The curriculum provides academic and clinical work which
constitute part of the prerequisite for the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech
Pathology or Audiology issued by the American Speech, Hearing, and Language
Association, additional prerequisites include a master's degree and certain prescribed
objective of this curriculum

experience.
Students in the Curriculum in Communication Disorders are required to
complete the master's degree before they are eligible for recommendation by the
University for certification. (The requirements for the master's degree appear in the
Graduate Catalogue.)
Admission to the undergraduate curriculum in Communication Disorders is
selective. Students must take a minimum of nine semester hours in courses in
Communication Disorders before they may apply for admission. The normal time for
application by regular students is in the middle of the sophomore year. Transfer students,
readmitted students, graduate students in Communication Disorders who have undergraduate deficiencies and students who are reapplying for admission compete on equal
terms with regular students at each admission period.
Selection within the quota for each admission period is determined by ranking the
product of the Quality Point Average in the courses that have been taken in Communication Disorders; and the Cumulative Quality Point Average. Other professional factors
determine the selection in case there is a tie in the measure - in this case the decisions are
made by the faculty of the Department.
The precise quota for each admission period is predetermined by the Department
in the light
of the projected capacity of clinical facilities, subject to a

The courses in the curriculum are designed to provide the students with training in sign
language and interpreting. Admission into the curriculum is selective. Students must
pass the competency entrance examination before acceptance into the program. To take
the exam, students must have completed the pre-interpreter training requirements which
are Manual Communication I and II and American Sign Language I or equivalent

Program Description
The Program in Special Education offers certification for teachers of the
Mentally Retarded and/or Physically Handicapped individuals, with an area of
concentration for students in Hearing Impaired and the courses and experiences which
support these curricula.
Special Education faculty are located in Navy Hall, which is equipped with
therapy rooms, television equipment and equipment and materials used in the training
of exceptional individuals.
Students enrolled in Special Education have the opportunity of participating in
practica in supervised and graded special classes. Students participate in full-time
student teaching at Selinsgrove Center, and public schools in Columbia, Lackawanna,
Luzerne, Lycoming, Montour, Northampton, Northumberland, Snyder, Sullivan and
Centre Counties. A special class located in Navy Hall and conducted by the Central
Susquehanna Intermediate Unit provides opportunity for observation and participation.
Continued enrollment in the Special Education curriculum after the sophomore
year is limited to students who have met successfully the existing criteria for admission
to departmental candidacy.
Sophomores who have been tentatively enrolled in the curriculum may apply for
continued enrollment as part of their application for admission to teacher education.
Selection for Special Education is made by the faculty of the Special Education
department in light of the applicant's academic performance.
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.

PRE-OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY, PRE-PHYSICAL THERAPY AND PRE-
CYTOTECHNOLOGY CURRICULUM
Requirements for admission to professional schools of physical therapy, occupational therapy, and cyctotechnology vary. Entrance into professional schools usually
follows two to four years of undergraduate preparation. Hence, the student is encouraged
to design a program which may lead to a baccalaureate degree at Bloomsburg University.
The opportunity to obtain a baccalaureate degree in Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, or Cytotechnology has been greatly enhanced as a result of a recent
affiliation agreement between Bloomsburg University and Thomas Jefferson University's College of Allied Health Sciences. This affiliation facilitates transfer to upperdivision baccalaureate degree programs at Thomas Jefferson University for students
who have completed a minimum of two years preparatory education at Bloomsburg
University. This "2 + 2" arrangement provides the advantage of offering a quality,
reasonably-priced education at a rural university combined with training in an attractive
urban setting in Philadelphia at a major medical center.
PUBLIC SCHOOL NURSING CURRICULUM
This curriculum has been phased out. No new students will be admitted; however,
anyone interested in public school nursing should contact the Department of Nursing.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS
Am Force ROTC
Bloomsburg University participates with Wilkes College in an on-campus
program which allows students to qualify for commissions in the United States Air Force
upon graduation.
The Air Force ROTC (AFROTC) provides a four-year program divi- ded into
the general military course (GMC) in the first two years and the professional officer
course (POC) in the last two years. A student may elect to enroll in either the total
four-year program or just the two-year POC program.
For acceptance into the POC, the four-year program student must pass a physical
examination, an officer qualification test, have attained an acceptable academic rating,
and successfully complete a 4 week field training course prior to their junior year.
To qualify for direct entrance in the two-year POC program, students must have
two academic years remaining at either the graduate or undergraduate level or a
combination of the two. They must meet the physical standards, pass an officer
qualification test, have an acceptable academic rating and successfully complete a
six-week field training course. Transfer students may elect the two-year program if they
satisfy the above requirements. Students interested in the two-year program should start
the application process early in their sophomore year.
Members of either the four-year or two year program are eligible to complete for
AFROTC
scholarships.
Uniforms, equipment, and textbooks for the AFROTC work are supplied by

which help the individual develop the ability to communicate
effectively, think analytically and make independent and responsible decisions.
Bloomsburg students are able to compete for Army ROTC scholarships which
pay full tuition and other educational fees. All students enrolled in the advanced program
receive $100 a month for the ten month period during the school year. After completing
the first year of the advanced program (normally between the junior and senior years)
the student will attend an Advanced Camp at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Payment
during this camp is at a rate equivalent to one-half the basic pay for a Second Lieutenant
together with allowances for travel, subsistence, housing, uniforms, and medical care.
Veterans can be considered immediately for the Advanced Program by receiving
constructive credit for the first two years of the Army ROTC. Other students who did not
take ROTC during their freshman and sophomore years can still qualify for the
advanced program if they have two years remaining at Bloomsburg. There are a variety
of programs available to qualify these students for the advanced program.
Army ROTC also offers a Ranger detachment for students who wish to gain more
experience in outdoor activities; e.g. orienteering and survival skills.
The Army National Guard and Army Reserve conduct a program in coordination
with Army ROTC at Bloomsburg. This Simultaneous Membership Program allows a
student to earn over $12,000 while participating in the program and gaining a
commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Army National Guard or Reserve.
Successful completion of the ROTC Advanced Program leads to a commission as
a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. Active
duty time will vary according to the type of program the student has elected and students
can be guaranteed Reserve/National Guard duty if they desire.

GRADUATE STUDIES
Degrees
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 tolead to the Master of Science degree. Programs leading to the Master of Arts
and Master of Science were added subsequently with the Master of Business Administration degree established in 1976. A Master of Science degree in Nursing program has
been approved to begin in the Fall of 1983.
The objective of the program for the degree, Master of Education, is to improve
subject matter proficiency and develop mature, professional teachers. The objective of
the Master of Arts program is to advance the student's scholarship in an academic
discipline. Programs leading to the Master of Science degree are designed to develop
mature scholarship and competence, especially as they are related to application. The
object of the Master of Business Administration degree is to provide increased
knowledge and skills essential for quality performance in the business professions.
The university pledges itself to a continuous review of the needs for graduate
education in the geographic region it serves. For a more complete explanation of the
graduate programs, please refer to the Graduate catalogue.

Largely through the efforts of J. P. Wickersham, Superintendent of Public

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.
The emphasis at the Normal School changed during the early 1920's from
secondary and college-preparatory courses for special teachers to full-time teacher
education. In May 1927 the institutional name was changed to Bloomsburg State
Teachers College, authorized to grant a Bachelor of Science in Education for teachers in
elementary and secondary schools.
Under the administration of President Francis B. Haas (1927-1939), great
progress was made in the teacher education program. In 1930, a new area of study was
added with the degree program in Business Education.

Major expansion
in buildings, faculty,
and student body took place
after that.
Full-time enrollments rose from 1,743 in 1960 to 5,058 in the Fall, 1983.
In 1960 the school's name was changed to Bloomsburg State College. Authorizawas received shortly thereafter to grant the Bachelor of Arts degree for liberal arts
programs in humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences/mathematics, and

approval was received for the degree, Master of Arts; in 1970 for the degree, Master of
Science; in 1 976 for the Master of Business Administration; and in 1 982 for the Master
of Science in Nursing. A cooperative doctoral program in elementary education was also
begun in 1982.
Bloomsburg is a strong, multi-purpose institution offering curricula in the liberal
arts, business, nursing, allied health sciences, and teacher education. Degree programs
are offered at the associate, baccalaureate, and masters levels in addition to the
cooperative doctoral program. The institution's name was changed to Bloomsburg
University when the 1982 legislation that created the State System of Higher Education
became effective July 1, 1983. Bloomsburg's president, Dr. James H. McCormick,
became the system's Interim Chancellor and has been selected as the first permanent
Chancellor. Dr. Larry W. Jones, Bloomsburg's provost and vice president for academic
tion
affairs, is serving as the university's interim president until
completion of a national
search for the permanent president.

Computer Services Center
Bloomsburg University has made extensive use of computers for more than a
decade. Current computing needs for instruction, management and research are met by
a central computer, the UNIVAC 1 100-61, a powerful and versatile central processing
and microcomputers scattered throughout the campus. The central system, with
memory, is directly accessible by
both centrally located and remote termi- nals. Controlled by the OS- 11 00 operating
system, the central operation supports all normal tape, disc, remote, batch and interactive functions. The Distributed Communicative Processor, a minicomputer attached
to the main system, currently supports in excess of 100 student, faculty, and administraunit,
four million bytes (4 megabytes) or characters of main
tive terminals.
The
following
programming languages are available by mainframe access:
PL/1, and SNOBOL. In
ASSEMBLER, BASIC, COBOL, FORTRAN, PASCAL,
addition,
numerous
these include
special purpose languages
ASET, an
and package programs are available;
author's language for computer assisted instruction (CAI), and
and math programs such as SCSS, SPSS, BMD, and MATH PAK.
Complementing the UNIVAC System is a microcomputer lab located adjacent
to the student terminal room. The lab presently includes 16 microcomputers with disk
drives and color monitors. Printers have graphic capabilities. Several units have 64K
RAM allowing PASCAL and LOGO to be run. Additional microcomputers are located
in various departments on campus. Plans have been made to triple the number of micros
on campus in the very near future.
During the fall and spring semesters, access hours normally are 7:00 a.m. to 2:00
a.m., Monday and Friday; Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.; Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00
statistical
a.m. Additional hours are scheduled as needed.
Within many academic programs including the Computer and Infor- mation
Science major, students are exposed to the contemporary computer and the data
processing technology of a data-based system, on-line inquiry, time sharing, program
development from a terminal, and dynamically changing files. Faculty working directly
with the computer have increased time to use computer assisted instruction (CAI)
material such as tutorials, drills and simulations to supplement classroom and lab
instruction.

STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
Introduction
It is
desirable for each student to
and residence
become involved
in extra-
curricular organiza-
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,
tions
hall
discussion groups, athletics, judicial proceedings, and a variety of student organizations.
Commuting

to participate in activities
and
to
spend as
much time
as possible on

Although students' housing preferences are considered whenever possible, the
University reserves the right to assign rooms and roommates.
Housing and food services are provided on a combined basis only for students
living in the residence halls. Housing and food contracts are binding until the end of the
academic year and may not be transferred or reassigned.
Freshmen under 21 years of age are required to reside on campus or commute
from the homes of their parents. If extenuating circumstances justify other housing
arrangements, a written request for waiver of this residency requirement must be
submitted to the Director of Residence Life.
Although transfer students may indicate a preference for residence hall accommodations, on-campus housing is not guaranteed. Transfers who wish to live on campus
should contact the Residence Life Office upon acceptance to the university.

Although students must rely on their own initiative to find suitable accommodations, the Residence Life Office offers many programs and services for persons seeking

housing in town. Essentially a referral agency, the office collects data on off-campus
housing opportunities, prepares housing and landlord directories, and provides other
useful information of interest to student/faculty tenants and their landlords. Before any
rental property is accepted for publication in the University housing directory, the owner
must submit his/her premises to an inspection by the town building code inspector and
sign a statement pledging to provide equal opportunity in the rental of the property.

Health Service Fee
All full-time undergraduate and graduate students will be assessed $17 per
semester for a Health Service Fee. Part-time undergraduate students scheduling 6-11
credits will be charged $8.50. Students who change their status from part-time to

3 credits will not be charged.
Student teachers and/or students on internships not residing in the Bloomsburg
area will not be charged. They may request an exemption by sending a written request

sity.
Accident and sickness insurance coverage is REQUIRED by Bloomsburg UniverStudents not having appropriate coverage must enroll in the insurance plan offered
by the University.
The current policy will pay up to $2,500 for medical expenses incurred within 52
weeks from the date of the first treatment for each sickness or accident which causes loss
commencing during the term insured. Each sickness will be covered on an allocated basis.
For example, specific amounts are allocated for hospital room charges, surgical
operations, and up to $ 1 5 per visit to the physician starting with the second visit. A major
medical clause will reimburse a student for 80' of all reasonable expenses actually
incurred in excess of $2,500 up to but not to exceed $10,000. Coverage is also available
for a dependent's spouse, children up to 19 years of age, or maternity expenses. This
policy is in effect 24 hours a day, for 1 2 months. An enrollment period of three weeks will
occur at the beginning of each semester and summer school.
Filing of all claims will be the responsibility of the student. An itemized bill must
be submitted with claims which are available at the University Health Center.
Athletic Insurance
All students participating in intercollegiate sports have insurance coverage up to
$92,000 paid for by the Community Government Association. Athletic insurance covers
injuries arising while practicing, playing, or traveling as a member of an athletic team
but does not cover injuries sustained in intramural sports or other injuries or illnesses.
The basic benefit period for treatment per injury is 52 weeks, with a maximum
benefit of $2,500. Benefits are payable in excess of all other insurance on claims involving
hospitalization or surgery. This means that the university insurance company is the
PRIMARY insurer on ALL claims other than those requiring hospitali- zation or
surgery. Injuries involving hospitalization or requiring a surgical procedure must be
claimed first under the parent's insurance policy. Should the parent have no other
coverage, the university:s insurer would then become primary.
Services/49
For claims which exceed $2,500 within two years, a catastrophe plan becomes
up to $90,000 extending the benefit period to a maximum of three
years. The catastrophe benefit is on a 80/20 co-insurance basis. Also, the $90,000
catastrophe coverage is on an EXCESS basis. This means any claim that exceeds the
basic $2,500 must be submitted to the athlete:s personal insur- ance company prior to any
payment or consideration by the university's company.
The maximum benefit for injury to sound natural teeth is $200 per tooth. Damage
to temporary teeth (bridge, partial, etc.) is not covered.

potential of an applicant when it appears that the environmental background may have
adversely affected grades and/or standardized test scores. The Dean of Admissions may
require an applicant for the Center for Academic Development to file supplementary
information as is needed for proper consideration.
Opportunities for financial aid are described in a brochure which may be secured
from the Office of Financial Aid. (See Section 3.03.)
Students admitted through the Center are expected to participate in a summer
enrichment experience prior to the first semester of their attendance, where special
assistance in tutoring and counseling is given to address specific academic, financial and
social problems. This requirement can only be altered by the Director of the Center for
Academic Development.

4.07 Transfer Students
An applicant who was previously enrolled, or at the time of application is enrolled,
another college or university is a transfer applicant.
The information supplied in section 4.02, Application Procedures, and 4.03,
Criteria for Evaluation, applies to transfer applicants. American College Test results
may be submitted by a transfer applicant instead of the Scholastic Aptitude Test results,
except that test results are not required from applicants who successfully completed 30
or more semester hours of college credit. Transfer applicants must request each college
attended to send an official transcript to the Dean of Admissions, regardless of whether
credit was earned at the other institution(s).
For a transfer student to be considered for admission, he/she must be certified as
in good standing academically and otherwise in the college last attended and must have
an overall quality point average of 2.0 or better on a 4.0 system for all courses in which
passing and/or failing grades were recorded.

Applicants should bring an unofficial high school transcript if an application is not on
file. Personal interviews are available Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
A number of campus visitation days are held during the academic year. Visitation
days consist of a general meeting with Admissions personnel, students, and administrative personnel, a question-and-answer session, a tour of the campus, lunch, and academic
department meetings. Participation in one of these visitation days may be more
meaningful than a personal interview because applicants have the opportunity to meet

Of Former Students
Students, who, having been formally admitted to degree study and attended
Bloomsburg University, fail to enroll for any academic semester without being on a
temporary withdrawal, regardless of the reason, must apply for readmission if they wish
to re-enter.
Readmitted students are responsible for the graduation requirements and
academic policies which exist at the time of reentrance.
The Dean of Admissions may require an applicant for readmission to file a letter
containing such supplementary information as is needed for proper consideration.
Students under academic dismissal are ineligible for readmission for one calendar
year. They should present evidence of successful achievement at another college or
university as part of any application for readmission.
The grade and credit entries recorded prior to readmission of students under
academic dismissal do not enter into subsequent computations of the quality point

Advanced Placement And C.L.E.P.
A student may receive a maximum total of 64 semester hours of credit by
examination or experiential learning. Credit may be awarded for successful completion
of institutional examinations and/or approved external examinations. The university
recognizes two external examination programs: the College Level Examination Program
(CLEP) and the Advanced Placement Program of the College Board.
The minimum score for awarding credit for general CLEP examinations is the
50th percentile of the Sophomore national norms. Credit is awarded for the subject
CLEP examinations for achievement at or above the mean score achieved by students in
the national norm sample who earned the grade of "C" in a regular college course in the
subject. Minimum scores for awarding credit and the amount of credit granted can be
secured by writing the Dean of Admissions.
A score of 5 or 4 on an Advanced Placement examination exempts a student from
the introductory course in the tested area and gives credit. Credit and advanced
placement are awarded in Calculus for a grade of 3 A score of 3 in all other areas exempts
a student, without credit, from the introductory course. Advanced placement is not
granted for grades of 2 or
Advanced placement may be granted in English Composition after consideration

ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Academic policies and practices are subject to change; the policies of this chapter are
those authorized as of March 1, 1984. If there are subsequent changes which are
effective for 1984-85, insofar as possible, these will be announced in the Pilot; changes
made after publication of the Pilot are announced in the Campus Voice.
5.01 Registration Policies
And Practices
Students with disabilities should contact the Office of the Registrar to
special arrangements for scheduling of classes
and
make
registration.
Student Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the student to know and observe the academic policies
and regulations of the university; to confine registration to courses for which the
prerequisites have been satisfied and to meet the requirements for graduation.
In case of changes by the university in graduation or curriculum requirements;
degree students who attend without interruption may choose to satisfy either the
requirements as they existed at the time of their entrance or the new requirements; if they
elect to satisfy the new requirements they are responsible for them in toto. All students
who are readmitted to the university and part-time students must apply to the Vice
President for Academic Affairs for permission to be graduated under the requirements
existing at the time of their original admission to Bloomsburg.
Academic Advisement
Entering students who upon application for admission indicated their preferred
curriculum are assigned to faculty advisers who specialize in advisement in these areas.
Assignments to advisors are made by the Coordinator of Academic Advisement with
advice of department chairpersons and deans.
Applicants for admission who are undecided about their curriculum should state
undeclared on the application instead of specifying a curriculum. These applicants will
be considered as General Studies students.
Students with questions or problems should seek assistance in the Office of
Academic Advisement, Benjamin Franklin Building.
Students seeking tutorial services or other developmental studies support should
contact the Tutorial Coordinator in the Center for Academic Development. This
individual works closely with departmental advisors, the Center's Writing Coordinator,
Reading Coordinator, and Math Coordinator, psychological counselor and the Recruitment and Orientation Specialist. A variety of academic support services can be tailored
to meet the need of the individual student.
Registration and Scheduling of Classes
Students register by scheduling classes. The scheduling of classes is usually
completed during the prior semester. Classes in progress for the current semester always
constitute an obligation. All registration procedures for the next semester shall not
conflict with this obligation. The dates for registration and advisement are announced by
the Registrar. To register, students obtain a class schedule booklet, meet with their
advisors and complete a registration form which is then presented to the Registrar.
Seniors will be registered first, followed by juniors, sophomores, and freshmen.
Incoming freshmen for the fall semester will have their schedules prepared in advance
with opportunity for counseling and schedule changes during the orientation period.

by the student during the schedule change period (the first six days of classes) but none
may be added except for extenuating circumstances.
All courses agreed to with the advisor prior to registration shall constitute a full
class schedule. Should the student drop a course during the schedule change period (the
first six days of the semester), the student will not be permitted to add a course except
under extenuating circumstances.

Withdrawal From a Course
Any student except a first semester freshman may drop a course during the
schedule change period (the first six days of the semester). However, a student may not
add a course except under circumstances outlined in Policy 3439, "Students Scheduling
Policy." After the schedule change period and continuing until one week past the middle
of the semester, if a student withdraws from a course a grade of "W" will be recorded.

Auditing of Courses
A full-time student who is enrolled for less than seventeen hours of course work
may, with consent of the appropriate dean and, subject to attendance fees as stated in
Section 2.2, register for one course as an auditor. If the registrant 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 the 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 Dean of Extended Programs. Acceptance depends upon such
factors as space in class and educational background.
Class Standing
A
student has academic standing as a freshman
until
he/she 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 after 96 or more semester hours of credit. Transfer credit,
if any, is included in these figures.

Definition of Grades
The grades given
at
Bloomsburg University are defined as
follows:
A — Excellent.
— Above Average.
D — Minimum Passing Grade.
B
C — Average.
E
Failure.
W— Withdrawn.
—
I
Incomplete. This grade is given only when the student has been unable to
complete certain of the obligations of the course due to circumstances beyond his/her
control and when a plan for completion of the course requirements is developed by both
the student and the instructor. 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 Registrar's Office, it is
assumed that the work will be completed prior to the end of the next semester. If the plan
is
not fulfilled within the time specified, the instructor has the option of replacing the
grade of
I
with an appropriate grade during the semester which follows the termination

subject to change at a later time). In the cae of graduate students, the grade of
I is
replaced by the symbol N; this symbol remains permanently on the student's record.
A request for extension of time for the removal of a grade of I may be granted
upon approval of the instructor and the dean of the college after suitable documentation
has been presented indicating that circumstances above and beyond the control of the
student persist or new circumstances of that nature have developed.
P Passed. This grade is recorded when a student takes a course on a pass-fail
basis and does work which would lead to a grade of D or higher. The grade of P is also
recorded when a course is passed by proficiency examination and when a student receives
—
a passing grade in a zero credit course or co-curricular activity, such as varsity sports,
musical ensembles, theatre and forensics.
F Failed. This grade is recorded when a student takes a course on a pass-fail
basis and does work which would lead to a grade of E. The grade of F is also recorded

Evaluation of credit earned at other institutions by incoming transfer students
and by readmitted students who earned credit subsequent to their prior enrollment at
Bloomsburg is made in the Admissions Office with guidelines provided by the
department chairperson, cooperatively established by the school dean. 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 in
the evaluation of the transcript.
5.09 Cheating
And Plagiarism
Attempts by students to improve grades by cheating in tests and examinations or
by plagiarism in papers submitted to the instructor are offenses subject to penalties
which may be as severe as suspension or expulsion from school.
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 Board.
In order to avoid the appearance of plagiarism resulting from ignorance of the
proper use of source materials, the student should study the practices governing use of
sources. Such information can be obtained from instructors or from handbooks found in
the library.
5.11 Residence
Requirement
At least 32 of the last 64 semester hours credited toward a baccalaureate degree
must be taken in residence at Bloomsburg University. Former Bloomsburg students, who
are certified 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 byBloomsburg University for college credit.
5.12
Graduate Courses In Senior Year
Seniors needing fewer than eighteen semester hours of course work to satisfy their
requirements for the baccalaureate degree may, with approval of the department
chairperson, apply to the Dean of Graduate Studies for permission to supplement their
undergraduate courses with graduate courses. Graduate credit for graduate courses will
be awarded upon verification of completion of the undergraduate degree.
5.13
Graduation Requirements
A candidate for graduation for the baccalaureate degree must have earned a 2.00
and
academic and other applicable requirements.
The last 64 semester hours of credit counted toward graduation must be in courses
taken in four-year degree-granting institutions. At least 32 of the last 64 semester hours
credited toward baccalaureate degree must be taken as residence credit at Bloomsburg
University. Residence credit is given for courses by Bloomsburg University for college
credit. Exceptions to this policy will be made only by the dean with the recommendation
of the appropriate department chairperson.
Graduation from Bloomsburg University requires the successful completion of at
least 128 semester hours to include: 1. Completion of the curriculum of an approved
degree program; 2. Completion of general education requirements. A semester hour is

UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULA:
Introduction
6.1
Choice Of Curriculum
The undergraduate curricula are administered by three colleges; the College of
Arts and Sciences, the College of Professional Studies, and the College of Business, and
the School of Extended Programs. The requirements for the curricula are stated in the
chapters which deal with these colleges.
Upon admission, students are admitted to seven (7) broad academic categories.
(See section 4.02). A student must have committed himself/herself and received
admission to a specific major by the end of the sophomore year. (Students who transfer
to Bloomsburg University with junior standing have a one semester grace period on this
requirement.)
When a student makes a tentative choice of a major he/she is assigned
preliminary or prerequisite courses required in that major. In curricula where admission
is selective or restrictive at the junior year entry-level, as in the case in several programs
in the College of Professional Studies, the university is not bound to admit the student if
he/she is not admissable according to the competition for available spaces or other
selective criteria.
Students electing to major in two departments must have a major advisor in each
department, meet all of the major requirements of each department and all of the general
education requirements. (See Section 6.4.) Double majors in some departments may
require more than the minimum 128 credits for graduation. Double majors in
departments in two different schools must have the permission of both college deans to
declare a double major.
6.2
Credit
Each curriculum which leads to a baccalaureate degree requires the successful
completion of 128 semester hours of credit. A semester hour is defined as the credit for
one weekly period of fifty minutes in lecture, discussion, or recitation for one semester.
In case a course requires laboratory, shop or studio experience,
two or
in
some cases three
periods are considered as equivalent to one period of lecture, discussion or recitation.
6.3
Non-credit Developmental Courses
Academic Development, a student,

COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
7.
7.1
General Administration
The College of Arts and Sciences is composed of seventeen academic departments
all
of which, except Health, Physical Education and Athletics, offer programs leading to
either the Bachelor of Science or the Bachelor of Arts degree or both.
Bloomsburg was
first
authorized to offer the Bachelor of Arts degree in
1
960 and
the Bachelor of Science in 1963. After a period of slow growth in the early 1960's,
programs, departments, and enrollments in Arts and Sciences have increased steadily.
Growth of the College of Arts and Sciences has also made Bloomsburg more
attractive to highly qualified, promising faculty, many of whom have been appointed in
the last decade.
Degrees
The
degrees, Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Bachelor of Science (B.S.) are
conferred for programs offered
The aim
in the
College of Arts and Sciences.
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 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.

admission to Bloomsburg, or early enough in the student's program to permit him/her
to complete all required prerequisite courses. Results from aptitude and achievement
tests, records of scholastic achievement, and other pertinent information will be
exchanged between institutions to aid both in guiding and counseling enrolled students
and prospective students. A list of declared students' admissions profiles will be prepared
by the Bloomsburg University admissions office each semester and forwarded to the
appropriate office at Penn State to provide some indication of the number and academic
quality of individuals entering the 3-2 program.
Bloomsburg University may require higher academic standards for its generic
students seeking to transfer. To insure referral of students who will make a significant
contribution to the engineering profession, and to increase the likelihood of their success
within the program, the Bloomsburg faculty has instituted the minimum standard of a
2.75 quality point average (4.00 = A) in all required prerequisite courses. The overall
QPA for transfer is either 2.50 or 3.0 depending on the engineering program.
116/Engineering and Liberal Arts
A Pre-Engineering Advisory Committee consisting of representatives from each
department preparing students for study in the 3-2 program, acts as the screening and
recommending committee responsible for upholding the tenets of this agreement. This
committee assists student recruitment and advisement and monitors any changes
proposed in the cooperative agreement, communicating these changes to the Dean of
Arts and Sciences in an advisory role.
The Pennsylvania State University may require a higher grade point average
because of space availability, departmental facilities, or changes in programs. Any
proposed change in the minimum quality point average will be communicated in writing
between institutional representatives as soon as the need for change is identified. All
changes will become effective with those students entering Bloomsburg University in the
Fall, after Bloomsburg has been notified of the changes.
To initiate the transfer from one institution to the other, the individual student
should request an application from the Admissions Office of the Pennsylvania State
University in September of his/her third year at Bloomsburg. The request should include
a statement that the application is for the 3-2 program. The application should clearly
indicate that the student is applying as a 3-2 student and should be submitted
promptly-no later than November 30th. The completed application should be supported
by the following credentials: final high school record; two copies of the official
Bloomsburg University transcript including all grades earned through the Spring
Semester of the second year; a schedule of courses for the Fall and Spring of the third
year, and a recommendation from Bloomsburg's Pre-Engineering Advisory Committee
that the student should be admitted to the 3-2 program. The application and supporting
credentials will be evaluated by the appropriate officer in the Admissions Office and the
Office of the Dean of the College of Engineering at The Pennsylania State University.
If the applicant meets the minimum requirements, the applicant will be offered
provisional admission to the Pennsylvania State Univerity in the 3-2 program commencing with the Fall term.
At the end of the Spring semester of the third year, two copies of the final official
work taken at Bloomsburg should be forwarded to the Admissions Office
The Pennsylvania State University. The applicant's admission to The Pennsylvania
transcript of
at
State University will be changed from a provisional basis to a permanent basis if the
student has maintained the necessary overall average, is in good standing at Bloomsburg
University and has fulfilled
all
conditions,
if
any, specified in the student's provisional
admission.
A
student recomended for transfer will be eligible to enter any of the following
engineering curricula with seventh term standing:

HISTORY SATELLITE PROGRAM
The history
satellite course
program
is
an innovative approach
to provide
greater flexibility in the history curriculum, to offer students more choice and better
scheduling opportunities to enroll in history courses. Under the proposal a designated
three semester credit history course can be offered at a reduced credit value or for an
increased one semester credit value equivalent to class time and course content. Two
approaches, "satellite segment course" and "satellite derivation course" are available
for a student to take a fraction or an extension of an existing three credit semester
course. The "satellite segment course" permits a student to enroll in a reduced portion
of a designated course for either one or two credits. The "satellite derivation course"
allows a student to enroll in a specially designed one semester credit course, for an
enrichment or concentrated study of a significant topic or theme from the content of the
three semester credit course. Check the undergraduate schedule of courses for specific
satellite offerings each semester.

to maintain the required Quality Point Average and may be revoked for other sufficient
reasons. If candidacy is revoked but the student is otherwise eligible to remain in the
University, he/she may transfer to other university programs. The student who wishes
to be reinstated in teacher education must reapply for admission.
Field Experience
Students in teacher education are required to engage in the field experiences
during which they work in and observe the educational process in the schools. It is
intended that these experiences will help the students decide whether they wish to follow
careers in teaching. Participants are exposed to many aspects of teaching and to the
operation of the schools, thus providing experience that should increase the relevanc\ of
course work
in professional
education.
Field experiences, in addition to student teaching, are a part of courses
in
professional education. These include field trips, observations, micro-teaching and
assisting teachers in school settings.

Program Description
The
is to prepare personnel to work in public schools,
and rehabilitation centers with individuals who are handicapped in
speech, hearing, and language. The objective for the interpreter training curriculum is
to prepare individuals to facilitate communication between deaf, hearing impaired and
hearing persons in educational, medical, legal, theatrical and social situations.
Upon successful completion of the curriculum and recommendation by the
Univerisity, certification in speech correction is granted by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. The curriculum provides academic and clinical work which
constitute part of the prerequisite for the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech
Pathology or Audiology issued by the American Speech, Hearing, and Language
Association, additional prerequisites include a master's degree and certain prescribed
objective of this curriculum
hospitals, clinics
experience.
Students in the Curriculum in Communication Disorders are required to
complete the master's degree before they are eligible for recommendation by the
University for certification. (The requirements for the master's degree appear in the
Graduate Catalogue.)
Admission to the undergraduate curriculum in Communication Disorders is
selective. Students must take a minimum of nine semester hours in courses in
Communication Disorders before they may apply for admission. The normal time for
application by regular students is in the middle of the sophomore year. Transfer students,
readmitted students, graduate students in Communication Disorders who have undergraduate deficiencies and students who are reapplying for admission compete on equal
terms with regular students at each admission period.
Selection within the quota for each admission period is determined by ranking the
product of the Quality Point Average in the courses that have been taken in Communication Disorders; and the Cumulative Quality Point Average. Other professional factors
determine the selection in case there is a tie in the measure - in this case the decisions are
made by the faculty of the Department.
The precise quota for each admission period is predetermined by the Department
in the light
of the projected capacity of clinical facilities, subject to a

The courses in the curriculum are designed to provide the students with training in sign
language and interpreting. Admission into the curriculum is selective. Students must
pass the competency entrance examination before acceptance into the program. To take
the exam, students must have completed the pre-interpreter training requirements which
are Manual Communication I and II and American Sign Language I or equivalent
coursework or skill. Upon completion of the program, the students shall be eligible to be
evaluated for certification by the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (RID)

support these curricula.
Special Education faculty are located in Navy Hall, which is equipped with
therapy rooms, television equipment and equipment and materials used in the training
of exceptional individuals.
Students enrolled in Special Education have the opportunity of participating in
practica in supervised and graded special classes. Students participate in full-time
student teaching at Selinsgrove Center, and public schools in Columbia, Lackawanna,
Luzerne, Lycoming, Montour, Northampton, Northumberland, Snyder, Sullivan and
Centre Counties. A special class located in Navy Hall and conducted by the Central
Susquehanna Intermediate Unit provides opportunity for observation and participation.
Continued enrollment in the Special Education curriculum after the sophomore
year is limited to students who have met successfully the existing criteria for admission
to departmental candidacy.
Sophomores who have been tentatively enrolled in the curriculum may apply for
continued enrollment as part of their application for admission to teacher education.
Selection for Special Education is made by the faculty of the Special Education
department in light of the applicant's academic performance.
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.

PRE-OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY, PRE-PHYSICAL THERAPY AND PRE-
CYTOTECHNOLOGY CURRICULUM
Requirements for admission to professional schools of physical therapy, occupational therapy, and cyctotechnology vary. Entrance into professional schools usually
follows two to four years of undergraduate preparation. Hence, the student is encouraged
to design a program which may lead to a baccalaureate degree at Bloomsburg University.
The opportunity to obtain a baccalaureate degree in Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, or Cytotechnology has been greatly enhanced as a result of a recent
affiliation agreement between Bloomsburg University and Thomas Jefferson University's College of Allied Health Sciences. This affiliation facilitates transfer to upperdivision baccalaureate degree programs at Thomas Jefferson University for students
who have completed a minimum of two years preparatory education at Bloomsburg
University. This "2 + 2" arrangement provides the advantage of offering a quality,
reasonably-priced education at a rural university combined with training in an attractive
urban setting in Philadelphia at a major medical center.
PUBLIC SCHOOL NURSING CURRICULUM
This curriculum has been phased out. No new students will be admitted; however,
anyone interested in public school nursing should contact the Department of Nursing.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS
Am Force ROTC
Bloomsburg University participates with Wilkes College in an on-campus
program which allows students to qualify for commissions in the United States Air Force
upon graduation.
The Air Force ROTC (AFROTC) provides a four-year program divi- ded into
the general military course (GMC) in the first two years and the professional officer
course (POC) in the last two years. A student may elect to enroll in either the total
four-year program or just the two-year POC program.
For acceptance into the POC, the four-year program student must pass a physical
examination, an officer qualification test, have attained an acceptable academic rating,
and successfully complete a 4 week field training course prior to their junior year.
To qualify for direct entrance in the two-year POC program, students must have
two academic years remaining at either the graduate or undergraduate level or a
combination of the two. They must meet the physical standards, pass an officer
qualification test, have an acceptable academic rating and successfully complete a
six-week field training course. Transfer students may elect the two-year program if they
satisfy the above requirements. Students interested in the two-year program should start
the application process early in their sophomore year.
Members of either the four-year or two year program are eligible to complete for
AFROTC
scholarships.
Uniforms, equipment, and textbooks for the AFROTC work are supplied by

which help the individual develop the ability to communicate
effectively, think analytically and make independent and responsible decisions.
Bloomsburg students are able to compete for Army ROTC scholarships which
pay full tuition and other educational fees. All students enrolled in the advanced program
receive $100 a month for the ten month period during the school year. After completing
the first year of the advanced program (normally between the junior and senior years)
the student will attend an Advanced Camp at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Payment
during this camp is at a rate equivalent to one-half the basic pay for a Second Lieutenant
together with allowances for travel, subsistence, housing, uniforms, and medical care.
Veterans can be considered immediately for the Advanced Program by receiving
constructive credit for the first two years of the Army ROTC. Other students who did not
take ROTC during their freshman and sophomore years can still qualify for the
advanced program if they have two years remaining at Bloomsburg. There are a variety
of programs available to qualify these students for the advanced program.
Army ROTC also offers a Ranger detachment for students who wish to gain more
experience in outdoor activities; e.g. orienteering and survival skills.
The Army National Guard and Army Reserve conduct a program in coordination
with Army ROTC at Bloomsburg. This Simultaneous Membership Program allows a
student to earn over $12,000 while participating in the program and gaining a
commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Army National Guard or Reserve.
Successful completion of the ROTC Advanced Program leads to a commission as
a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. Active
duty time will vary according to the type of program the student has elected and students
can be guaranteed Reserve/National Guard duty if they desire.

GRADUATE STUDIES
Degrees
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 tolead to the Master of Science degree. Programs leading to the Master of Arts
and Master of Science were added subsequently with the Master of Business Administration degree established in 1976. A Master of Science degree in Nursing program has
been approved to begin in the Fall of 1983.
The objective of the program for the degree, Master of Education, is to improve
subject matter proficiency and develop mature, professional teachers. The objective of
the Master of Arts program is to advance the student's scholarship in an academic
discipline. Programs leading to the Master of Science degree are designed to develop
mature scholarship and competence, especially as they are related to application. The
object of the Master of Business Administration degree is to provide increased
knowledge and skills essential for quality performance in the business professions.
The university pledges itself to a continuous review of the needs for graduate
education in the geographic region it serves. For a more complete explanation of the
graduate programs, please refer to the Graduate catalogue.
