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

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
graduate study leading to the Master of Education degree was inaugurated. In 1968.
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

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.

3.02 University Policy
"Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania exists for the trans- mission of knowledge, the pursuit of truth, the development of students, and the general well-being of
and

society. Free inquiry

goals.

As members

free expression are indispensable to the attainment of these

of the academic community, students should be encouraged to

develop the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in a sustained and independent
search for truth."
This statement, quoted from the student handbook, Pilot, "Joint Statement on
Rights, Freedoms and Responsibilities of Students," has been acknowledged as a guiding
principle in the normal operation of the institution. Students are responsible for
understanding and abiding by the university's rules, policies, and regulations as stated
in the

and Residence Hall Manual. The extent to which
comply with these requirements

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.

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.

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).

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
of verbal SAT, the Test of Standard Written English results and high school achievement.

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.

For purposes of social and housing privileges and regulations, the definition of

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

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



when

a student receives a failing grade in a zero credit course for co-curricular activity.

V— Audit.

R — Research in Progress.
X — No Grade Recorded.
When the grade of X is recorded, the

provisions for determining

academic honors, good

standing, minimal progress and satisfactory progress are not applied until the grade of

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

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,
program or prior academic performance may
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.

Academic Minors

In addition to achieving an indepth understanding of an academic discipline by
completing the requirements of a major, students are encouraged to become literate in
a second discipline by completing the minor requirements of that discipline. Each
academic minor consists of a minimum of 18 credit hours of courses. Students should
contact the academic department for the requirements for the completion of specific

academic minors.

Independent Study/87

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.

To allow a student, who has not yet made a decision between engineering

To provide a student with a planned sequence of liberal arts courses
which, if completed successfully, would guarantee the student acceptance at an engineering school at times when student applications to such
schools might exceed their capacity.
To allow those qualified students to receive both a liberal and technical
education at relatively low costs, and in so doing, provide the Commonwealth and the Nation with more well-educated engineers.

Application for admission to the program will be made to Bloomsburg University.

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

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.

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.

Admission to Teacher Education
Students who wish to pursue teacher education curricula enroll initially in the
College 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

Retention in Teacher Education
Admission to teacher education is equivalent to candidacy for the degree.
Bachelor of Science in Education. Candidacy for this degree is revoked in case of failure
to maintain the required Quality Point Average and may be revoked for other sufficient
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

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

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

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

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.
