The College
California State College is a state-owned multipurpose institution offering degrees in teacher education and arts and
sciences. The College was founded in 1852 and became a state
normal school in 1914. In 1929 the school became a four-year
degree-granting institution under the name of California State
Teachers College. In 1959, the college assumed its present name
as a reflection of its expanded purposes. Graduate studies were
initiated in 1961. The Arts and Sciences Program was initiated
in September, 1962.
California State College is located on the Monongahela
River in California, Pennsylvania, a community with a population of approximately 7,500. California is located 40 miles south
of Pittsburgh, 25 miles east of Washington, Pennsylvania, and
25 miles northwest of Uniontown. The college can be most easily
reached over U.S. Route 40 which comes within four miles of
California at Malden or over Pennsylvania Route 88. From the
eastern part of the state Interstate Route 70 connecting with the
Pennsylvania Turnpike at New Stanton offers easy access to
Route 88 at Speers (near Charleroi).

and regulations, including requirements for graduation, rests
with the student. Faculty advisers assist students in planning
their academic programs and research requirements, but are not
expected to relieve the students of their responsibility.
PLANNING A PROGRAM
As soon as the applicant has been admitted to the Graduate
Studies Program he will be referred to the appropriate department for advisement. Each graduate student's program will be
planned specifically for him in conference with his adviser. An
adviser will be assigned to aid the student with his research
after he has been admitted to candidacy for the Master's degree.
The candidate may request an adviser in his area of study with
the approval of the department head.
The student is required to consult with his adviser throughout his graduate program on a regularly scheduled program
basis. His program of studies must be approved by his adviser
prior to registration.
COURSE LOAD
Part-time graduate students will be limited to six ( 6) semester hours of graduate work per trimester.
During the summer sessions a graduate student may earn a
maximum of twelve (12) semester hours of graduate work
( maximum 6 credits per six-week session).
A full-time graduate student may carry ten ( 10 ) or twelve
( 12) semester hours of graduate work within a sixteen-week
period.
RESIDENCE REQUIREMENT

WITHDRAWALS
Withdrawal from Individual Courses:
Students are permitted to add courses the first week of a
trimester after registration day. The permission is granted by
the Dean of Graduate Studies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies.
Students may drop courses during the first six weeks without penalty. Permission is granted by the Dean of Graduate
Sh1dies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies.
After the first six weeks, withdrawals from individual
courses are permitted with a grade of "WP" or "WF"; 'WP"
carries no penalty-'WF" carries penalty.
Complete Withdrawal:
Students are permitted to withdraw completely from college
up to the week of the final examination. Permission is granted
by the Dean of Graduate Studies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies. 'WP" or 'WF'' grades are assigned for all courses.
All withdrawals are subject to the policy established for
credit and refunds. Refer to that section of the bulletin entitled
"Refunds" immediately above.
Withdrawal forms must be properly filled in by students
who desire to discontinue part of their schedules. When students
merely stop attending classes without officially withdrawing, "F''
(failing) grades are recorded on the permanent records.
Students who find it necessary to leave the college during
a trimester should, before discontinuing attendance at classes,
confer with the Dean of Graduate Studies. If after such conference it is found that the student should not continue, official
withdrawal forms must be filled in the Graduate Office. Students
who leave the college without following this routine, especially
the completing of withdrawal cards, jeopardize their status.
TIME LIMIT
All requirements for the Master's degree must be completed
within five years after the date of initial registration for graduate
studies at California State College.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENT
The graduate student will be required to maintain a "B"
grade average in all work after receiving the bachelor's degree.
20
Only grades of "A," "B," or "C" are acceptable toward a Master's degree. Marking system: Grade of "A," 4 quality points;
"B," 3 quality points; "C," 2 quality points. An incomplete grade
(I) is issued only if because of personal illness ( covering two
or more consecutive weeks) the student is unable to complete
the requirements of the course at the end of the session. The incomplete grade is issued only when circumstances warrant it
and when proper evidence is presented. Work for the incom·
plete grade must be completed during the semester immediately
following the semester when the grade was issued. After the
lapse of one trimester, if the work is not satisfactorily completed,
the incomplete grade automatically becomes an "F" grade, and
it cannot be removed without repeating the course.
COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION
Each student who is a candidate for the Master's degree
will be required to pass a comprehensive examination in his
area or field of specialization. The type of examination may vary
in different departments. The purpose of the examination is to
evaluate the student's ability to organize his thoughts, to express himself adequately, and to demonstrate a knowledge of
his field.
RESEARCH REQUIREMENT
One of the requisites for fulfilling the requirements for a
Master's degree at California State College is the preparation
of a research project or thesis. The research project and the
thesis may be distinguished in the following manner:
The research project should make a contribution to the
graduate student; it should make him a more understanding and
competent teacher. The project may pertain to the teacher's own
classroom situation or to some other type of limited research.
The project needs the approval only of the adviser, but the adviser may request the meeting of a . special committee who
woul.d .also review and evaluate. the proposed study. Two ( 2)
credit hours are given for the :research project.
The thesis should make a contribution to the student and
to his field; it treats a proplem tci a deeper .degree. Better controls; wider sampling; .and. further .basic research techniques
must be employed ·for a thesis. Before a research proposal can
be accepted for a thesis,- it must be · approved by a committee
of three graduate faculty members-the candidate's adviser, a
faculty member of the. candidate's department, .and .a . member
21
of another department. Four to six ( 4-6) credit hours are given
for a thesis.
The research project and thesis may differ in the nature of
research and in details, but they should follow the same format
and regulations as prescribed in the bulletin, Preparation of
Theses and Research Projects, which is available in the Graduate Office.
A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations by Kate L. Turabian is the adopted style sheet for the
graduate program at California State College.
Any letters or questionnaires concerning the proposed research project or thesis which are sent for the purpose of seeking
information and data must be approved by the adviser and by
the Graduate Office.
The Graduate Division of the College has a cooperative
arrangement with University Microfilms for the publication of
theses abstracts and for microfilming of theses. The cost for this
service to the graduate student is a fee of $15 which is payable
to University Microfilms, Inc. University Microfilms will make
a permanent microfilm copy of the thesis and send one copy of
the microfilm to the Library of Congress in Washington, D. C.
University Microfilms, Inc. will also publish the abstract in their
abstract journal of Master's theses. Copies of the thesis in microfilm or Xerography are available at a nominal cost on a per
page basis. Abstracts of theses are limited to 150 words or less.
Details and instructions concerning the microfilming of theses
and abstracts are available in the Graduate Office or in the
Office of the Director of Research.

The Graduate Council reserves the right to modify the requirements for graduate study without notice.
NOTICE OF ANTICIPATION FOR GRADUATION
It is the responsibility of the student to check with the
Graduate Office at least three months before the date of his anticipated graduation. The Graduate Office prepares a list of
prospective graduates several months before each commencement. It is the student's responsibility to see that his name is included on the graduation list and to indicate the way his name
should appear on the diploma. If the degree candidate fails to
check with the Graduate Office and fails to complete the application for graduation, it will be necessary to postpone his graduation until the next regular commencement. The application
for graduation must be signed by the student's adviser, indicating that all requirements have been completed.
HOUSING FACILITIES
Housing in the College dormitories for the summer sessions
is available to graduate students. Students desiring housing facilities are requested to write to the Dean of Student Affairs and
Services.
The housing fee which includes room and board, is $19.00
per week, Meals-$9.00, Room-$10.00 ( Fees are subject to
change).
The availability of living accommodations in the college
dormitories depends upon the enrollment and demand for housing. Interested students are urged to make the necessary arrangements as early as possible.
PERMANENT CERTIFICATION
The provisional college certificates issued after October 1,
1959, shall require for validation for th_e permanent form of the
certificate, the completion of twelve ( 12) semester hours _of postbaccalaur-e ate work -and at least three full years of successful
teaching experience. Provisional College Certificates issued after
October 1, 1963, shall require for validation for the permanent
form of the certificate the completion of 24 semester hours of
approved post-baccalaureate or graduate work at a regionally
accredited institution.
By enrolling in the graduate program teachers may com-
23
plete their twelve ( 12) or twenty-four ( 24) credit hours of postbaccalaureate work which are required for permanent certification and at the same time begin work on the Master's degree.
Effective July 1, 1969, the Instructional III Certificate shall
be a permanent certificate issued to an applicant who shall have
completed five ( 5) years of satisfactory teaching and shall have
been granted a master's degree with emphasis in a subject or
teaching area by a regionally accredited institution.
THE LIBRARY
The J. Albert Reed Library, opened in August of 1961,
hous es a growing collection of carefully chosen supplementary
reading and research materials expanded to meet the needs of
the graduate program. Library acquisitions average 17,000 volumes a year, special encouragement being given by the librarians to graduate ordering.
Microfilm editions of rare and out-of-print titles are slowly
attracting student use. Twelve microfilm readers and six microform readers are adjacent to the graduate headquarters on the
second floor of the building. Microfilmed theses supplement
shelves of bound theses in the reserve area, both of which serve
both as examination samples and as source materials. For the
students' convenience, book copies and microfilm reader-printers provide copying service at a nominal cost.
Two members of the library staff have been assigned to the
Education Department as order librarians, cataloguers, reference
assistants, and consultants in that field. Professional librarians
also serve the Industrial Arts and Science Departments in the
same capacities. Five staff members classify titles in the humanities, thus completing a pattern which provides trained assis tance
in each subject field to professor and student alike.
Open stacks foster an atmosphere of independent study and
do much to encourage serious acquaintance with books on the
part of the graduate student. Interlibrary loan service is granted
him for the completion and extension of research; privately
placed carrels make his library hours more productive, and a
generous library budget supplies every reasonable request for
materials intended to broaden and deepen the mastery of his
chosen field. The influence of the graduate program has filtered
through all institutional policy-making and has had a particularly
invigorating effect on the scope and progress of the Library.
Library Hours

community affairs are a part of the services offered by the Center. Student laboratory assistants help improve the offerings of
the Center personnel. They are available for projection, previews, repair, check-in, and check-out activities in the Learning
Resources area. Graphics production has increased during the
past several years and provide help in teaching situations for
students and faculty.
Educational television now becomes a part of the program
since a specialist in this field has been added to the staff. Consultation in any or all of these facets in learning resources are
offered to the personnel of the College.
Graduate students will find all media, machines, and services available in the Center in addition to a competent and willing Educational-Media Center staff willing to contribute their
help in the production of individual teaching material.

The Graduate Programs
INTRODUCTION
The Graduate Division of California State College offers
three types of advanced degrees: Master of Education (M.Ed.) ,
Master of Arts (M.A.), and Master of Science (M.S.).
The Master of Education Program is intended primarily for
qualified in-service teachers and other applicants who meet the
standards for graduate study which were established by the
Graduate Council. The following Master of Education Programs
are offered: Biology, Chemistry, Elementary Education, Elementary Guidance, English, Geography, Industrial Arts Education,
Mathematics, Mentally Retarded, Reading Specialist, Socially
and Emotionally Maladjusted, Social Studies, and Speech and
H earing.
The areas of specialization for the Master of Arts Program
are English, History, and Political Science. The Biology and Psychology Departments offer Master of Science programs.
The Master of Arts and the Master of Science degrees are
offered for applicants who have a major or adequate background
preparation in the area in which they wish to matriculate. The
students have an opportunity to study in depth in their areas
of specialization and become more proficient in their discipline.
In those graduate programs that lead to initial certification,
individual departments will determine the competency of the
student for certification. It should be noted that receiving a
Master's degree is not synonymous with initial certification. The
areas for which certification is given on the graduate level at
California State College are: Elementary Guidance, Reading,
School Psychology, and Socially and Emotionally Maladjusted.
Graduate work at California is especially designed to include
classroom, laboratory, clinical, and research experience that will
add breadth and depth to the educational background of the
students. The program for each person admitted to the graduate
division will be planned in cooperation with the adviser and will
be based upon the previous training and experience of the student.
A minimum of thirty ( 30) semester hours is required of all
degree students. The curriculum pattern differs for the various
areas of specialization.
Since standards of proficiency described elsewhere must be
met, it should be understood that the requirement listed in the
preceding paragraph constitutes a minimum requirement and
does not guarantee graduation.
29
The graduate program is not merely an extension of work
at the undergraduate level. More vigorous standards are applied
and a degree of independence in the pursuit of knowledge is required. Special emphasis is placed on the cultivation of scholarly
attitudes and methods of research.
BIOLOGY
MASTER OF EDUCATION
Commencing with new admissions for the fall trimester of
1970, at least one trimester of organic chemistry is required for
the M.Ed. Program. Deficiencies will have to be made up ( as
undergraduate credit) before final approval for Candidacy is
granted.
Soon after admission, the graduate student will meet with
a committee to determine his major professor and his research
thesis or project. At this time he may be advised of other undergraduate courses in chemistry or other areas necessary for
pursuit of his research, and be required to take same ( for undergraduate credit). Any deviation from these requirements will
have to be approved by the body of the biology department,
acted upon in a regular meeting.

MASTER OF SCIENCE
Commencing with new admissions for the fall trimester of
1970, at least two trimesters of organic chemistry are required
for complete matriculation in the M.S. program. Deficiencies will
have to be made up ( as undergraduate credit) before final approval for Candidacy is granted.
Soon after admission, the graduate student will meet with a
committee to determine his major professor and his research
thesis. At this time he may be advised of other undergraduate
courses in chemistry or other areas necessary for pursuit of his
research, and be required to take same ( for undergraduate
credit). Any deviation from these requirements will have to be
approved by the body of the biology department, acted upon in
a regular meeting.

the work of the 18th century novelists, their attempts at experimentation
and innovation, their foreshadowing of the interests and techniques of the
modern novelists. Secondly, the novels will be discussed in terms of their

times in which they lived . Discussion will focus on the attempt of each of
the poets to deal with those problems particularly relevant to the nineteenth
century-the Romantic inheritance, the role of the poet, the function of
art-in order to isolate common characteristics which might be helpful in
evolving a definition of 'Victorianism.' The literary and aesthetic criticism
of the period-notably the prose of Arnold, Ruskin, Swinburne, and Pater
-will be used to provide a detailed analysis of each of the particular problems. Significant work by minor poets will be considered insofar as it sheds
light on these problems or on the work of any of the major figures.
Eng 734. Rm,uNTic POETRY, 3 credits
An intensive study of the work of the major poets of the Romantic Period

were spawned, and discuss their eighteenth-century forerunners, the PreRomantics. The discussion of each of the major poets will focus on the
poetry as a representation of those characteristics which are traditionally
associated with Romanticism, as well as those qualities peculiar to that
specific poet under discussion. Finally, an attempt will be made to evaluate
the effect of these poets on the critical attitudes of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, through an examination of the work of such men as
J. S. Mill, Matthew Arnold, Irving Babbitt, Paul Elmer More, T. S. Eliot
and others.

California State College is a state-owned multipurpose institution offering degrees in teacher education and arts and
sciences. The College was founded in 1852 and became a state
normal school in 1914. In 1929 the school became a four-year
degree-granting institution under the name of California State
Teachers College. In 1959, the college assumed its present name
as a reflection of its expanded purposes. Graduate studies were
initiated in 1961. The Arts and Sciences Program was initiated
in September, 1962.
California State College is located on the Monongahela
River in California, Pennsylvania, a community with a population of approximately 7,500. California is located 40 miles south
of Pittsburgh, 25 miles east of Washington, Pennsylvania, and
25 miles northwest of Uniontown. The college can be most easily
reached over U.S. Route 40 which comes within four miles of
California at Malden or over Pennsylvania Route 88. From the

WITHDRAWALS
Withdrawal from Individual Courses:
Students are permitted to add courses the first week of a
trimester after registration day. The permission is granted by
the Dean of Graduate Studies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies.
Students may drop courses during the first six weeks without penalty. Permission is granted by the Dean of Graduate
Sh1dies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies.
After the first six weeks, withdrawals from individual
courses are permitted with a grade of "WP" or "WF"; 'WP"
carries no penalty-'WF" carries penalty.
Complete Withdrawal:
Students are permitted to withdraw completely from college
up to the week of the final examination. Permission is granted
by the Dean of Graduate Studies or the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies. 'WP" or 'WF'' grades are assigned for all courses.
All withdrawals are subject to the policy established for
credit and refunds. Refer to that section of the bulletin entitled
"Refunds" immediately above.
Withdrawal forms must be properly filled in by students
who desire to discontinue part of their schedules. When students
merely stop attending classes without officially withdrawing, "F''
(failing) grades are recorded on the permanent records.
Students who find it necessary to leave the college during
a trimester should, before discontinuing attendance at classes,
confer with the Dean of Graduate Studies. If after such conference it is found that the student should not continue, official
withdrawal forms must be filled in the Graduate Office. Students
who leave the college without following this routine, especially
the completing of withdrawal cards, jeopardize their status.
TIME LIMIT
All requirements for the Master's degree must be completed
within five years after the date of initial registration for graduate
studies at California State College.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENT
The graduate student will be required to maintain a "B"
grade average in all work after receiving the bachelor's degree.
20
Only grades of "A," "B," or "C" are acceptable toward a Master's degree. Marking system: Grade of "A," 4 quality points;
"B," 3 quality points; "C," 2 quality points. An incomplete grade
(I) is issued only if because of personal illness ( covering two
or more consecutive weeks) the student is unable to complete
the requirements of the course at the end of the session. The incomplete grade is issued only when circumstances warrant it
and when proper evidence is presented. Work for the incom·
plete grade must be completed during the semester immediately
following the semester when the grade was issued. After the
lapse of one trimester, if the work is not satisfactorily completed,
the incomplete grade automatically becomes an "F" grade, and
it cannot be removed without repeating the course.
COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION
Each student who is a candidate for the Master's degree
will be required to pass a comprehensive examination in his
area or field of specialization. The type of examination may vary
in different departments. The purpose of the examination is to
evaluate the student's ability to organize his thoughts, to express himself adequately, and to demonstrate a knowledge of
his field.
RESEARCH REQUIREMENT
One of the requisites for fulfilling the requirements for a
Master's degree at California State College is the preparation
of a research project or thesis. The research project and the
thesis may be distinguished in the following manner:
The research project should make a contribution to the
graduate student; it should make him a more understanding and
competent teacher. The project may pertain to the teacher's own
classroom situation or to some other type of limited research.
The project needs the approval only of the adviser, but the adviser may request the meeting of a . special committee who
woul.d .also review and evaluate. the proposed study. Two ( 2)
credit hours are given for the :research project.
The thesis should make a contribution to the student and
to his field; it treats a proplem tci a deeper .degree. Better controls; wider sampling; .and. further .basic research techniques
must be employed ·for a thesis. Before a research proposal can
be accepted for a thesis,- it must be · approved by a committee
of three graduate faculty members-the candidate's adviser, a
faculty member of the. candidate's department, .and .a . member
21
of another department. Four to six ( 4-6) credit hours are given
for a thesis.
The research project and thesis may differ in the nature of
research and in details, but they should follow the same format
and regulations as prescribed in the bulletin, Preparation of
Theses and Research Projects, which is available in the Graduate Office.
A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations by Kate L. Turabian is the adopted style sheet for the
graduate program at California State College.
Any letters or questionnaires concerning the proposed research project or thesis which are sent for the purpose of seeking
information and data must be approved by the adviser and by
the Graduate Office.
The Graduate Division of the College has a cooperative
arrangement with University Microfilms for the publication of
theses abstracts and for microfilming of theses. The cost for this
service to the graduate student is a fee of $15 which is payable
to University Microfilms, Inc. University Microfilms will make
a permanent microfilm copy of the thesis and send one copy of
the microfilm to the Library of Congress in Washington, D. C.
University Microfilms, Inc. will also publish the abstract in their
abstract journal of Master's theses. Copies of the thesis in microfilm or Xerography are available at a nominal cost on a per
page basis. Abstracts of theses are limited to 150 words or less.
Details and instructions concerning the microfilming of theses
and abstracts are available in the Graduate Office or in the
Office of the Director of Research.

The Graduate Council reserves the right to modify the requirements for graduate study without notice.
NOTICE OF ANTICIPATION FOR GRADUATION
It is the responsibility of the student to check with the
Graduate Office at least three months before the date of his anticipated graduation. The Graduate Office prepares a list of
prospective graduates several months before each commencement. It is the student's responsibility to see that his name is included on the graduation list and to indicate the way his name
should appear on the diploma. If the degree candidate fails to
check with the Graduate Office and fails to complete the application for graduation, it will be necessary to postpone his graduation until the next regular commencement. The application
for graduation must be signed by the student's adviser, indicating that all requirements have been completed.
HOUSING FACILITIES
Housing in the College dormitories for the summer sessions
is available to graduate students. Students desiring housing facilities are requested to write to the Dean of Student Affairs and
Services.
The housing fee which includes room and board, is $19.00
per week, Meals-$9.00, Room-$10.00 ( Fees are subject to
change).
The availability of living accommodations in the college
dormitories depends upon the enrollment and demand for housing. Interested students are urged to make the necessary arrangements as early as possible.
PERMANENT CERTIFICATION
The provisional college certificates issued after October 1,
1959, shall require for validation for th_e permanent form of the
certificate, the completion of twelve ( 12) semester hours _of postbaccalaur-e ate work -and at least three full years of successful
teaching experience. Provisional College Certificates issued after
October 1, 1963, shall require for validation for the permanent
form of the certificate the completion of 24 semester hours of
approved post-baccalaureate or graduate work at a regionally
accredited institution.
By enrolling in the graduate program teachers may com-
23
plete their twelve ( 12) or twenty-four ( 24) credit hours of postbaccalaureate work which are required for permanent certification and at the same time begin work on the Master's degree.
Effective July 1, 1969, the Instructional III Certificate shall
be a permanent certificate issued to an applicant who shall have
completed five ( 5) years of satisfactory teaching and shall have
been granted a master's degree with emphasis in a subject or
teaching area by a regionally accredited institution.
THE LIBRARY
The J. Albert Reed Library, opened in August of 1961,
hous es a growing collection of carefully chosen supplementary
reading and research materials expanded to meet the needs of
the graduate program. Library acquisitions average 17,000 volumes a year, special encouragement being given by the librarians to graduate ordering.
Microfilm editions of rare and out-of-print titles are slowly
attracting student use. Twelve microfilm readers and six microform readers are adjacent to the graduate headquarters on the
second floor of the building. Microfilmed theses supplement
shelves of bound theses in the reserve area, both of which serve
both as examination samples and as source materials. For the
students' convenience, book copies and microfilm reader-printers provide copying service at a nominal cost.
Two members of the library staff have been assigned to the
Education Department as order librarians, cataloguers, reference
assistants, and consultants in that field. Professional librarians
also serve the Industrial Arts and Science Departments in the
same capacities. Five staff members classify titles in the humanities, thus completing a pattern which provides trained assis tance
in each subject field to professor and student alike.
Open stacks foster an atmosphere of independent study and
do much to encourage serious acquaintance with books on the
part of the graduate student. Interlibrary loan service is granted
him for the completion and extension of research; privately
placed carrels make his library hours more productive, and a
generous library budget supplies every reasonable request for
materials intended to broaden and deepen the mastery of his
chosen field. The influence of the graduate program has filtered
through all institutional policy-making and has had a particularly
invigorating effect on the scope and progress of the Library.
Library Hours
Monday through Friday
8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Saturday

COLLEGE EDUCATIONAL-MEDIA CENTER
Services in the Learning Resources area have increased and
kept abreast with the remarkable progress of the overall college
programs. With the addition of a full-time secretary and a technician for repair work, services are extended to include complete
maintenance of all equipment and opportunities for using machines, materials, and services daily Monday through Friday
and one-half on Saturday. Opportunities for using the services of the Center include films , filmstrips , tapes, transparencies,
and other media. Projection for classes, campus activities, and
community affairs are a part of the services offered by the Center. Student laboratory assistants help improve the offerings of
the Center personnel. They are available for projection, previews, repair, check-in, and check-out activities in the Learning
Resources area. Graphics production has increased during the
past several years and provide help in teaching situations for
students and faculty.
Educational television now becomes a part of the program
since a specialist in this field has been added to the staff. Consultation in any or all of these facets in learning resources are
offered to the personnel of the College.
Graduate students will find all media, machines, and services available in the Center in addition to a competent and willing Educational-Media Center staff willing to contribute their
help in the production of individual teaching material.

The Graduate Programs
INTRODUCTION
The Graduate Division of California State College offers
three types of advanced degrees: Master of Education (M.Ed.) ,
Master of Arts (M.A.), and Master of Science (M.S.).
The Master of Education Program is intended primarily for
qualified in-service teachers and other applicants who meet the
standards for graduate study which were established by the
Graduate Council. The following Master of Education Programs
are offered: Biology, Chemistry, Elementary Education, Elementary Guidance, English, Geography, Industrial Arts Education,
Mathematics, Mentally Retarded, Reading Specialist, Socially
and Emotionally Maladjusted, Social Studies, and Speech and
H earing.
The areas of specialization for the Master of Arts Program
are English, History, and Political Science. The Biology and Psychology Departments offer Master of Science programs.
The Master of Arts and the Master of Science degrees are
offered for applicants who have a major or adequate background
preparation in the area in which they wish to matriculate. The
students have an opportunity to study in depth in their areas
of specialization and become more proficient in their discipline.
In those graduate programs that lead to initial certification,
individual departments will determine the competency of the
student for certification. It should be noted that receiving a
Master's degree is not synonymous with initial certification. The
areas for which certification is given on the graduate level at
California State College are: Elementary Guidance, Reading,
School Psychology, and Socially and Emotionally Maladjusted.
Graduate work at California is especially designed to include
classroom, laboratory, clinical, and research experience that will
add breadth and depth to the educational background of the
students. The program for each person admitted to the graduate
division will be planned in cooperation with the adviser and will
be based upon the previous training and experience of the student.
A minimum of thirty ( 30) semester hours is required of all
degree students. The curriculum pattern differs for the various
areas of specialization.
Since standards of proficiency described elsewhere must be
met, it should be understood that the requirement listed in the
preceding paragraph constitutes a minimum requirement and
does not guarantee graduation.
29
The graduate program is not merely an extension of work
at the undergraduate level. More vigorous standards are applied
and a degree of independence in the pursuit of knowledge is required. Special emphasis is placed on the cultivation of scholarly
attitudes and methods of research.
BIOLOGY
MASTER OF EDUCATION
Commencing with new admissions for the fall trimester of
1970, at least one trimester of organic chemistry is required for
the M.Ed. Program. Deficiencies will have to be made up ( as
undergraduate credit) before final approval for Candidacy is
granted.
Soon after admission, the graduate student will meet with
a committee to determine his major professor and his research
thesis or project. At this time he may be advised of other undergraduate courses in chemistry or other areas necessary for
pursuit of his research, and be required to take same ( for undergraduate credit). Any deviation from these requirements will
have to be approved by the body of the biology department,
acted upon in a regular meeting.

times in which they lived . Discussion will focus on the attempt of each of
the poets to deal with those problems particularly relevant to the nineteenth
century-the Romantic inheritance, the role of the poet, the function of
art-in order to isolate common characteristics which might be helpful in
evolving a definition of 'Victorianism.' The literary and aesthetic criticism
of the period-notably the prose of Arnold, Ruskin, Swinburne, and Pater
-will be used to provide a detailed analysis of each of the particular problems. Significant work by minor poets will be considered insofar as it sheds
light on these problems or on the work of any of the major figures.
Eng 734. Rm,uNTic POETRY, 3 credits
An intensive study of the work of the major poets of the Romantic Period

were spawned, and discuss their eighteenth-century forerunners, the PreRomantics. The discussion of each of the major poets will focus on the
poetry as a representation of those characteristics which are traditionally
associated with Romanticism, as well as those qualities peculiar to that
specific poet under discussion. Finally, an attempt will be made to evaluate
the effect of these poets on the critical attitudes of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, through an examination of the work of such men as
J. S. Mill, Matthew Arnold, Irving Babbitt, Paul Elmer More, T. S. Eliot
and others.
