The following high school courses are mini- mum requirements for admission as a freshman. In June 1995, the Board of Regents adopted the Admissions Policy Direction to ensure that students who enter the University System of Georgia are prepared to succeed. Albany State University, in support of raising the bar, has implemented new phase-in admission cri- teria. Consequently, by the fall semester of 2001, all students enrolling at Albany State University will meet higher standards.

Albany State University will accept as transferred credit D grades earned in core curriculum courses; no freshman English courses with grades less than C will be accepted as transfer credit. All transfer applicants accepted for admission will be mailed a copy of their evaluation sheet, which includes the work accepted from the college previously attended. This evaluation must be presented upon registration to the students advisors. Unofficial transcripts cannot be evaluated. Applicants who have not completed at least 30 semester hours of accepted transfer credits should com- plete all the requirements for freshman admissions.

The University, however, believes that the principal responsibility for financing an education lies with students and their families. Financial aid programs are based on the financial needs of students. Need is the difference between the cost of education at Albany State University and the amount applicants and their families are expected to contribute toward the cost of education. Financial Aid Application Procedures Students desiring financial aid should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid Form (FAFSA) as soon as possible after January 1. Instructions for completing the form and appropriate addresses are all contained within the FAFSA packet. List Albany State University to receive your FAFSA information. Our code is 001544. The Financial Aid Office will begin processing completed applications for the academic year as soon as feder- al regulations are received and the Board of Regents determines tuition rates for the academic year. A student must be accepted for enrollment (new students and readmits} before he/she can be awarded. Processing aid applications can take six weeks or longer during peak processing periods. Although the prior- ity deadline is April 15, applications that are not completed by the following deadlines may not be processed by the beginning of that semester. Fall semester, June 15; spring semester, November 15; summer semester, April 15. If you have not completed the application process (this includes providing additional documents as requested by the Financial Aid Office) by the dates given above, you should be prepared to pay all educational costs assessed on your fee statement. Satisfactory Academic Progress Federal regulations require that all students receiving any form of financial assistance make and main- tain satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of their degrees in order to remain eligible to receive assistance. Students are considered to be making satisfactory academic progress if they meet the two standards of measurement (Qualitative and Quantitative). Qualitative Measurement All students are expected to maintain the same academic standards as outlined in the official catalog of Albany State University. Students receiving financial aid must meet the minimum academic standards. Students whose academic standings fall below the minimum prescribed standards will be governed by the following for receiving financial aid 1. Financial Aid Probation status will exist if the students cumulative GPA falls below 2.0. 2. If the students semester GPA is not 2.0 or greater at the end of the next semester of enrollment, his/her financial aid will be suspended. 3. The Financial Aid Probation status will be removed if the students cumulative GPA increases to 2.0 or above at the end of the next semester of enrollment. Students that are academically eligible (grade point average) to remain at the institution and meet all of the requirements under the Quantitative Measurement indicated below are eligible to receive financial aid. Financial Aid recipients that are placed on academic suspension or financial aid suspension at the end of their last semes- ter of enrollment are not eligible for financial aid and must pay to enroll if they are permitted to return to the institution. Quantitative Measurement In addition to maintaining the required academic standards (grade point average), students must com- plete a minimum percentage of credit hours attempted each academic year and the requirements for their degree within a maximum number of hours. Students must successfully complete 67% of the courses for which they register each academic year (fall and spring). The grades of A, B, C, D and S count as successful completion of coursework. Students completion rates will be reviewed at the end of the spring semester unless enrolling for the summer semester. At the end of the spring semester, those students who have not successfully completed 67% of their courses during the last two terms of enrollment will have their financial aid terminated effective the next fall semester. Students starting spring semester will not be reviewed until the following spring semester, which will allow the students at least two semesters to prove themselves eligible for financial aid. The maximum number of hours (time frame) allowed is 150% or the number of semester hours required to earn a degree. For example at Albany State University, the average degree requires 120 to 127 hours for com- pletion; therefore students may not receive financial aid after they have attempted 190 semester hours. The first 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog 23 ALBANY STATE 30 semester hours of Learning Support and Regents courses combined are not counted in the maximum number of hours. Transfer credits are counted in the maximum number of hours. The purpose of student financial aid is to assist students in earning a degree. Students who have earned enough hours to complete degree requirements are no longer eligible to receive financial aid. Students who change majors or degree programs may reach their eligibility limits for receiving financial aid before obtaining a degree. Students who elect to change majors or degree programs should do so early to avoid jeopardizing eligibility for financial aid. Students may apply for reinstatement of financial aid after they have completed 6 or more semes- ter hours at their own expense with a minimum grade-point average of 2.00 at Albany State University. A graduated scale will be used to measure progress for students earning fewer than 6 semester hours (5 hours - 2.25 GPA; 4 hours 2.5 GPA; 3 hours 3.0 GPA). Grades will be reviewed every semester until the overall grade point average reaches the required academic standard. Reinstatement will be on a semester-by-semes- ter basis. Appeals Process An appeals process is available for students who have extenuating circumstances that account for their lack of academic progress. Appeals must be made in writing to the Financial Aid Committee. Stu- dents must complete Financial Aid Appeals petitions along with supporting documents to indicate the spe- cific reason(s) for failure to make satisfactory progress. Only one appeal may be considered for students that fail to achieve 67% of hours attempted. Additionally, only one appeal may be considered for students who do not earn a degree within the maximum time frame. The committee will review the statement and sup- porting documents, as well as past performance and past academic record. Students will be notified in writ- ing of the committees decision. Mandatory Academic Remediation Coursework (teaming Support and Regents Courses) Students enrolled in Learning Support and/or Regents courses are eligible to receive financial aid for a maximum of 30 hours of academic credit. If these courses must be taken beyond 30 hours of academic cred- it, students must enroll at their own expense.

Included among these activities are the following: (1) acquainting new students with the policies and proce- dures of the institution, (2) advising new students on the selection of classes, and (3) registering for classes. One orientation is scheduled each summer and it is most advantageous for students to attend. I____ Housing/Residence Life There are four residence halls for women and two for men. Accommodations in the three traditional halls are double occupancy with double and triple occupancy in the new halls. Each room contains twin beds, a desk, chest of drawers, study chair, waste baskets and closet space. Students are required to furnish bed linen, towels, mattress pad, bedspread and a pillow. Each room is equipped with a television cable outlet and a telephone line. Regular cable viewing is available. Each room has only one complete local telephone net- work. Long distance telephone calls require a credit card. Each residence hall has a director and an assistant director, who together give general direction to the affairs of the residence hall. Student assistants also work with the residence directors. A student will be eligible to receive a housing application after being officially admitted to the Univer- sity by the Admissions Office. When students return the completed application along with the required deposit, a lease agreement will be sent to them with their residence hall assignment. The housing deposit consists of a combined application fee and security/damage deposit. The application portion of the fee is non-refundable. The security/damage deposit is refundable if there is no damage to the assigned room and common areas of the residence hall. A meal plan is required of all students residing in the residence halls. The cafeteria is closed during offi- cial holidays and semester breaks. A convenient snack area is also located in the Reese Student Union.

Coun- seling Services seeks also to aid students in determining a purpose and direction for their lives and in developing coping skills and behaviors to aid them in working more effectively with others in their envi- 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog ronment. Through Counseling Services, the professional staff provides academic, personal, psychosocial therapeutic counseling. Counseling sessions are confidential and are conducted on a one-on-one basis as well as in small groups. Additional services offered through Counseling Services and Programs include Group Programs and Workshops such as study skills, social and relationship skills, and personal growth. Outreach Consultations include: Non-traditional Student Services, Disability Student Services, and the Drug/Alcohol Prevention/Education Program. Counseling Services also sponsors an active Peer Program, and serves as a National chapter affiliate of the BACCHiUS (Drug 8t Alcohol Prevention) Peer Education Network. Through institutional and national testing component, Counseling Services addresses the test- ing needs of ASU students and the community through the provision of various examinations, including some of the following: * College Level Examination Program (CLEP) * Georgia Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) * Graduate Record Examination (GRE) * Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) * Major Field Achievement Test (MFAT) * Miller Analogies Test (MAT) Computer based testing services are available through the ASU Computer Based Testing Center.

Each center serves desig- nated colleges and universities within a geographic region, and follows criteria established by the Board of Regents identifying students with suspected specific learning disabilities or Attention Deficit/Hyperac- tivity Disorder (ADHD). The professional staff of the Regents Center will review documentation for spe- cific learning disabilities, ADLID, or Acquired Brian Impairment supplied by a student or will provide a new evaluation. Any student interested in having an evaluation must contact the Counseling Services and Programs at Albany State University (Disabilities Services Provider) for information concerning the availability of this service. The Disabilities Services Provider will also make available the criteria for identifying specif- ic learning disabilities, ADJID and/or for accepting outside evaluations (assessment completed by an agent other than one of the three centers). Provieions for Learning Dieebilitiee and Physically Handicapped Students Albany State Universitys policy regarding students with learning and physical disabilities complies with the University System of Georgia Board of Regents policies and all related Federal legislation. Stu- dents who have documented disabilities, who have met all of the admissions criteria and are otherwise qualified, should voluntarily register with the Counseling Center. Albany State University provides accom- modations which enable disabled students to pursue their educational goals. Learning Disabilities In order to receive appropriate University accommodations for disabilities which affect learning, stu- dents must submit documentation. a. Students with Learning Disabilities (LD) must submit documentation which meets the Board of Regents criteria. b. Students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) must submit documentation which meets the criteria for ADHD as established in The American Psychiatric Associations Diagnostic and Sta- tistical Manual, fourth revision (DMS-IV) and as defined by the parameters set by the Georgia Board of Regents. c. Students with Acquired Brian Impairment (ART) are eligible for the same accommodations as stu- dents with developmental learning disabilities. They should submit documentation that verifies the dis- ability, clarifies the areas of learning that might be affected, and states the accommodations which would be appropriate for the student. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Student Affaire/Services d. Student with visual, hearing, motor, or other impairments which affect learning should supply documentation that verifies the disability, clarifies the areas of learning that might be affected, and states the accommodations which would be appropriate for the student. Documentation should be submitted to the Assistant Director of COUNSELING SERVICES AND PRO- GRAMS. The documentation will be reviewed by the appropriate Professional Counselor and the Institu- tions committee on learning disorders. If documentation is complete, the student will be eligible for accommodations upon entering the University. If documentation is incomplete, the student is responsible for providing the missing components. Students should contact the Professional Counseling staff during the application process or as soon as possible. This allows students to have appropriate accommodations during placement testing so they can be placed in classes which are appropriate. Professors are more willing to work with students who notified them of possible problems at the first of the semester rather than after the first sign of trouble. isabled/Handicapped Student Services Albany State University complies with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504) and The Ameri- cans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (Title II). Students with special needs, accommodations and/or ques- tions relating to either of 504/ADA should contact the Coordinator of the Disabled Student Services Pro- gram in the Counseling and Disabled Student Support Services (DSSP). Religious Life Albany State University recognizes the need for spiritual guidance in the lives of its students and endeavors to give such guidance through nondenominational religious activities. One of the highlights of annual campus activities is the observance of Religious Emphasis Week. At this time ministers and spiritu- al consultants from various churches and organizations are invited to participate. Student Identification Card ID Cards are obtained from the Office of Fiscal Affairs at the beginning of each semester. Photograph- ing students is a part of the registration procedure. The ID Card, which is not transferable, should be carried at all times, and if lost, costs $25.00 to replace. Parking Students receive parking guides and fee information at registration. Student Activities Office Albany State University provides opportunities for its students to enhance their intellectual and cultur- al development and for association with outstanding personalities. These activities are coordinated by the Office of Student Activities. The philosophy of the Office of Student Activities is to entertain students by exposing them to top quality artists, performers, and lecturers. Therefore, social events are planned through- out the year and informal events are given on campus most weekends. The Office of Student Activities sponsors annual events that expose students to the social graces and cultural affairs to help them become more well-rounded individuals. Fashion shows, plays, lectures and appearances of nationally known speakers are a few examples of the kinds of activities which take place during Co-Etiquette Week. At the culminating Co-Etiquette Ball, our students display their etiquette in a semi-formal environment. Throughout the year, renowned speakefs are brought to campus for other occa- sions such as Martin Luther King's Birthday, Honors Day and Founders Day. Student Organizations The Student Government provides for student participation in the governance of the University. Students serve on University committees. There is a Residence Hall Council in each residence hall. It provides for participation in the regulation of matters concerning life in the residence halls and for the acquisition of invaluable experience in self-gov- ernment.

Athletics An integral part of the students' educational development at Albany State University is athletics, both intercollegiate and intramural. All students are encouraged to participate either as competitors or spectators. The University desires each student to participate according to his/her ability, and participation is particu- larly emphasized for students majoring in physical education. Their participation will have special impor- tance in preparing them for future careers. The James C. Reese Student Union The James C. Reese Student Union enhances Albany State Universitys concept and philosophy for stu- dent activities. The two-story facility brings together student program and recreational areas. A comfortable, naturally lighted lounge area greets building users. Students have access to a bookstore, post office, food bar, and game room on the main floor. The Reese Student Union displays stunning murals of the Albany State University RAM mascot in several locations.

Required Attendance Regulations: Class Attendance Class attendance at Albany State University is compulsory. Students grades are based on daily class par- ticipation and performance. Teachers will not administer examinations and quizzes to students who have been absent from class for reasons other than official business of the University, sickness, or emergencies such as death in immediate family, jury duty, court summons, etc. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog ALBANY STATE Student Affairs/Services Statement of Disruptive and Obstructive Behavior The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia reaffirms the policies to support fully, free- dom of expression by each member of the academic community and to preserve and protect the rights of freedom of its faculty members and students to engage in debate, discussion and peaceful and non-disrup- tive protest and dissent. The following statement relates specifically to the problem described below. It does not change or in any way infringe upon the Boards existing policies and practices in support of freedom of expression and action. Rather, it is considered necessary to combat the ultimate effect or irresponsible dis- ruptive and obstructive actions by students and faculty which destroy academic freedom and the institu- tional structures through which the University operates. In recent years, a new, serious problem has appeared on many college and university campuses in the nation. Some students, faculty members and others have, on occasion, engaged in demonstrations, sit-ins, and other activities that have clearly and deliberately interfered with the regular and orderly operation of the institution concerned. Typically, these actions have been the physical occupation of a building or campus area for a protracted period of time for the use of, or display of, verbal or written obscenities involving inde- cent or disorderly conduct. These actions have gone beyond all heretofore recognized bounds of meetings for discussion, persuasion, or even protest, in that: (1) acquiescence to demands of the demonstrators is the condition for dispersal and (2) the reasonable and written directions of institutional officials to disperse have been ignored. Such activ- ities thus have become clearly recognizable as an action of force, operating outside all established channels on the campus, including that of intellectual debate and persuasion which are at the very heart of education. The Board of Regents is deeply concerned by this problem. Under the Constitution of the State of Geor- gia, under all applicable court rulings and in keeping with the tradition of higher education in the United States, the Board is ultimately responsible for the orderly operation of the several institutions of the Univer- sity System and the preservation of academic freedom in these institutions. The board cannot and will not divest itself of this responsibility. For these reasons and in order to respond directly and specifically to this new problem the Board of Regents stipulates that any student, faculty member, administrator or employee, acting individually or in con- cert with others, who clearly obstructs or disrupts, or attempts to obstruct or disrupt any teaching, research, administrative, disciplinary, or public service activity, or any other activity authorized to be discharged or held on any campus of the University System of Georgia is considered by the Board to have committed an act of gross irresponsibility and shall be subject to disciplinary procedures, possibly resulting in dismissal or termination of employment. Career Services The overall mission of the Office of Career Services is to create and maintain an educational environ- ment which complements, enhances and supports the broader academic mission of Albany State Universi- ty. It is of utmost importance to recognize and address the uniqueness and diversity of our students and alumni and to address proactively their career development and job search needs. This will be accomplished by providing professional advisement and the most up-to-date guidance resources available. The staff seeks to assist students and alumni with choosing career interest, gaining related work expe- rience, and providing guidance in their full-time professional job search through three distinct areas: Self-Assessment: Career advisement and testing. Experiential Learning Opportunities: Shadowing and mentoring experiences, internships and coopera- tive education. Professional Employment Services: On-campus recruitment, job fairs, jobs listings, internet resources, resume referrals and job search readiness workshops. Services also include graduate and professional school visitations, credential services for education majors, a career resource library and computer-based programs. The Right to Share in Policy Making The Albany State University students have a collective right to an appropriate voice in the making of institutional policy generally affecting their social or academic affairs; however, this right is subject to the supervening responsibility of the institution to assure adequate protection for essential interests and policies of the institution. This collective right is recognized by the inclusion of student representation with frill vot- ing privileges on all standing institutional committees. To the extent that students are foreclosed from shar- ing in the making of particular decisions, or kinds of decisions, the institutional policy or interest deemed to require the foreclosure will be explicitly stated. Students will always share in the formulation of standards of student conduct. 36 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Academic Information The status of the University as a fully accredited member of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools requires that caution be exercised in retaining any student who falls below the accepted academic standards. Students are reviewed each year to determine their academic status. Students are notified of extended probation and suspensions. Degree Requirements A candidate for the Baccalaureate degree from Albany State University must satisfy the following requirements: 1. Complete a prescribed curriculum. 2. Complete a minimum of 120 semester hours with a grade point average of at least 2.00 (C- average) or the departmental requirement. 3. Pass the Regents Test. 4. Complete a year in residence with a minimum of 30 semester hours. 5. Take an Exit Examination or major area examination. Application for Degree A Degree Application Card should be filed when students have thirty (30) hours or less to complete for graduation. The application may be secured from the Registrar's office. On this application students must indicate intended date of graduation. Students who fail to graduate as indicated should complete another form. Students who complete all requirements for a degree at the close of the summer, fall or spring semester will be given a statement, upon request, certifying requirements have been completed. Credits may be cer- tified to the State Department of Education in order that the certificates to teach may be issued at any time during the school term. Degrees will be awarded pursuant to graduation. Commencement Commencement is a part of the academic process. Therefore, students are required to be present to receive their degrees. Graduating in absentia, when students cannot attend, requires approval of an accept- able excuse from the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Requests to graduate in absentia should be sent to the Office for Academic Affairs. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Regents Test An examination to assess the competency level in reading and writing of students enrolled in degree programs in the University System Institutions will be administered. The following statement shall be the policy of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia on this examination. It is the responsibility of each institution of the University System of Georgia to assure the other insti- tutions, and the System as a whole, that students obtaining a degree from the institution possess the basic competence of academic literacy; that is, certain minimum skills of reading and writing. Specific information relative to Regents Test regulations is available in departmental offices, the Office for Academic Affairs, and the Office of the Coordinator of the Regents Test Program. A special Regents Test Program procedure has been outlined and is designed as an alternative means of assessing the reading and writing competencies of foreign students whose native language is other than English and handicapped students who are physically unable to follow the Regents Test Program established by the Board of Regents. Guidelines for Regents Testing Program The policy for the Regents Testing Program includes the following guidelines: The Regents Test will be administered during one testing period each semester. Students must register for the test by application only. Students must take the test in their first semester of enrollment after earning 30 credit hours if they have not taken it previously. Students may be permitted to take the test before they have earned 30 semes- ter credit horns if they are first-time examinees and have taken English 1101. Students who have not passed both parts of the test by the time they have earned 45 credit hours must take remediation each semester of enrollment until they have passed both parts. Students transferring from outside of the System with 30 or more credit hours should take the test dur- ing their first semester of enrollment at a System institution. Students transferring within the System with 45 or more semester credit hours and who have not taken or passed the test must take remediation each semester of enrollment until they have passed both parts. Students with fewer than 45 semester hours of college-level credit may take the test twice before they are required to take remediation. However, students who postpone taking ENGL 1101 or who postpone tak- ing the test will not necessarily have two opportunities to take the test before the remediation requirement is imposed. Students who are not enrolled and are not subject to remedial requirements may be permitted to take the test during the summer administration only. Regents Test Procedures for Foreign and Handicapped Students Foreign students whose native language is other than English and handicapped students whose physi- cal impairments prevent their taking the Regents' Test will petition the Office for Academic Affairs for exemption from the Regents Testing Program. The Vice-President for Academic Affairs will determine the validity of students requests and forward all justifiable requests to the Chairperson of the Department of English and Modem Languages. That Depart- ment will review each request for exemption and designate a three-member panel of English instructors to test the applicant for language competency according to the Foreign Students Alternative Test or accord- ing to the Handicapped Students Alternative Tests. The foreign students failure to demonstrate satisfacto- ry competence in reading and writing skills will require that the applicant: (a) take tutorial or remedial work designated by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs until the student is able to achieve an acceptable score on a standardized examination for students whose native language is other than English, or (b) take and pass a course in English as a Second Language. The handicapped students failure to demonstrate competence in reading and writing will necessitate the applicant: (a) attend special tutorial or remedial sessions designated by the Vice President for Academic Affairs, and (b) repeat the procedures outlined for certification of competence. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog' Students with learning disabilities will be accommodated on the Regents Test in accordance with approved (University System of Georgia) procedures. Matriculation Time For Degree The normal time required to complete degree requirements is four academic years when the student carries a full load, 15 to 16 semesters, and no remedial courses. The maximum time allotted for completing degree require- ments is six academic years or 12 semesters. Beyond this period, approval must be obtained on a term by term basis from the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. Students changing programs will be required to meet the requirements of the department to which the change is being made and must follow the course of study indicated by that department. Credit Load The normal credit load is from 15 to 16 semester hours. Students desiring to carry more than a normal load must have the approval of their advisor, department chairperson and dean of the respective school. Permission to carry 17 or 18 hours will require a 3.0 or above cumulative grade point average. Permission to carry more than 18 hours will require a 3.0 or above cumulative average and a 3.0 semester GPA during the last semester of resi- dence. A graduating senior can carry an overload with a 2.5 cumulative GPA one semester (only) during the senior year. In special cases, students may be permitted to carry more than 20 hours per term provided permission is granted by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog ALBANY STATE 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog contents Academic Advisement............................ 41 Grading System .................................41 Graduation/Degree Audit.........................42 Honors and Awards...............................42 Academic Standing...............................42 Academic Probation/Suspension...................42 Residence Classification........................43 Legal Residency Requirements....................43 Registration and Schedule Changes ..............44 Auditing Courses for Non-Credit ................44 Withdrawal from University......................44 Transcripts.................................... 45 Academic Classification.........................45 Academic Renewal Policies and Procedures............................45 Academic Repeat Policy........................46 Transient Status..............................46 Veterans Assistance Program ..................46 Buckley Amendment.............................46 Grade Point Average...........................46 State of Georgia Legislative Requirements .............................47 Second Degrees ...............................47 Procedure for Applying to Take College Level Examination Program (CLEP)..........47 Academic^h^ I- Academic Affairs I- Requirements/Regulations I & Support Services Academic Support Services Academic Support Services Academic Advisement: Academic advisement is available to each student at Albany State University.

Students who do not satisfy the above requirements, but have earned a grade point average of 3.0 or higher may graduate with distinction". Academic Standing To assure the most beneficial use of time and resources of both the student and the institution, certain academic standards have been set by Albany State University. If a student is to make and maintain satis- factory progress, he must adhere to these standards. Three factors affect a students academic status; namely, the cumulative grade point average (CGPA), the number of semester hours earned, and the number of semesters completed. The maximum time allotted for completing degree requirements is six (6) years or eighteen (18) semesters. A student whose academic standing falls below the minimum prescribed standards will be governed by the following: 1. An Academic Probation status will be indicated when a students cumulative GPA falls below 2.00. 2. The Academic Probation status will be removed if the students cumulative GPA becomes 2.0 or above at the end of the next semester. 3. If the students semester GPA is not 2.0 or greater at the end of the subsequent semester, he/she may be suspended for one semester. 4. Learning Support Status. To preclude having two standards (one for Learning Support stu- dents and another for new students), the same standards above will apply for all students. Both new students and students exiting Learning Support courses will be tracked using the standards described above beginning with their first semester entering the University or their first semester exiting Learning Support. 42 Readmission. Upon being readmitted after suspension, students must pay for and carry a minimum of 6 credits and achieve a minimum semester GPA greater than 2.0 to preclude 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Academic Support Services subsequent suspension for at least a year. For any new readmissions, this same standard will apply. Academic Probation/Suspension A minimum of 12 hours must be completed by part-time students by the end of the first two semesters.

He may be considered making satisfactory progress if he completes at least six hours, with a minimum grade point aver- age of 2.0 for the semester. If the student does not meet the minimum standards after the additional semester, he may be suspend- ed for one semester. If a student elects to change his major or course of study after completing 76 semester hours, the insti- tution will reconsider the students adherence to the maximum time frame and reevaluate, on an individual basis, for an additional year on the maximum time frame. Only one major course of study change will be considered for increasing the maximum time frame. An appeal process is available for students who have extenuating circumstances which account for their lack of progress. The appeal process is initiated by writing a statement including support documents to the Admissions and Academic Evaluation Committee c/o the Vice President for Academic Affairs indicating the specific reasons for the failure to make satisfactory progress. The Committee will review the statement as well as past academic progress and will notify the student of its decision. The appeal process must be initi- ated by the student within 10 days of the notice of probation or suspension. If suspended, students must apply for readmission. Readmitted students will remain on probation until satisfactory academic progress is achieved. Reeidence Classification Residence status is not changed automatically, and the burden of proof rests with the student to provide documentation that he or she qualifies as a legal resident under the regulations of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. To insure timely completion of required processing, a student/applicant requesting a change in residence classification for a specific semester should file the Petition for Georgia Residence Classification and all supporting documentation not later than three weeks (20 working days) prior to registration. Decisions prior to registration cannot be guaranteed when petitions and all supporting documentation are received after the specified deadline. If the petition is denied and the student wishes to petition for a later semester, a new Petition for Geor- gia Residence Classification must be submitted for that semester. A petition to be reclassified as a resident of Georgia can be obtained from the Registrars Office. Sup- porting documents and petition should be returned by July 1 for fall semester, November 15 for spring semester and Mayl for summer semester. Legal residents of Georgia, as well as certain categories of nonresidents, may be enrolled upon payment of resident fees in accordance with the following Regents' rules: Legal Residency Requirements (Regents Rules! 1. (a) If a person is 18 years or older, he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that he or she has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least twelve months immediately before the date of registration, (b) No emancipated minor or person 18 years of age or older shall be deemed to have gained or acquired in-state residence status for fee purposes while attending any educational institution in this state, in the absence of a clear demonstration that he or she has in fact established legal residence in this state. 2. If a person is under 18 years of age, he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that his or her supporting parent or guardian has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least 12 months immediately preceding the date of registration. 3. If a parent or legal guardian of a minor changes his or her legal residence to another state following a period of legal residence in Georgia, the minor may continue to take courses for a period of twelve consecutive months on the payment of instate tuition. After the expiration of the twelve-month period, the student may continue his or her registration only upon the pay- ment of fees at the out-of-state rate. 4. In the event that a legal resident of Georgia is appointed as guardian of a nonresident minor, such minor will not be permitted to register as an in-state student until the expiration of one year from the date of court appointment and then only upon a proper showing that such appointment was not made to avoid payment of the out-of-state fees. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog 43 ALBANY STATE 5.

Accordingly, the University seeks to provide a classroom environment that is wholesome and free from distraction for all students. Therefore, the University allows persons who are enrolled, invited or authorized to its classrooms or other services. Time spent attending to a personal visitor, especially a child, distracts from the learning environment. University classrooms are not a substitute for day care centers, and personal liability issues regarding children and other unauthorized visitors do not allow the University to permit unauthorized visitors or chil- dren in classrooms. This restriction on children and other persons does not apply to attendance at public University func- .* jions, as family members are always welcome at public activities on campus, such as graduation or nurse pinning ceremonies. State of Georgia Legislative Requirements An act of the General Assembly of the State of Georgia requires that all candidates for degrees possess and demonstrate a reasonable mastery of United States history, Georgia history, United States Constitution and Georgia Constitution. These requirements can be met at Albany State University by taking and passing POLS 1101 American Government. Transfer credits from out-of-state institutions may not satisfy the require- ments of the State of Georgia Act. An exemption test is offered to transfer students whose courses did not include Georgia History and Georgia Constitution. Information about the exemption test can be obtained by contacting the chairperson of the Department of History, Political Science and Public Administration. Second Degrees Students who want to obtain a second degree may use credits from the first degree when the courses from the first degree can be appropriately applied. A student should inform the Registrars Office if he is pursuing a second degree. Students seeking an additional degree should apply for admission and have official transcripts from each institution sent to the Director of Admissions. A person who already has a degree from Albany State should complete an application for readmission and inform the Registrars Office of the intent to obtain the second degree.

To this end, the Honors Program offers students the opportunity to receive individualized instruction, thereby interacting with top faculty members; to enroll in small, enriched classes; to pursue areas of interest through independent projects and research; and to participate with others of similar abilities. Admission The Honors Program seeks to recruit academically talented students whose records and performance reflect an ardent desire for an in-depth and enriched educational experience. While standards to measure such an individual may be arbitrary, a freshman applicant ordinarily should (1) have an aggregate minimum SAT score of 1000, (2) rank in the top 5% of his or her high school graduating class, (3) exhibit potential for leadership and academic excellence, and (4) demonstrate an ability to read with comprehension and to uti- lize communication skills (oral and written) effectively. Retention A candidates admittance to the Honors Program does not necessarily mean that the student will remain in the program. Yearly, the Honors Academic Policy and Planning Committee reviews the progress made by each student and determines whether the student should continue in the program. A student accepted in the Honors Program may exit the program under one of these conditions: 1. Graduation with GENERAL HONORS designation: Those students who complete all college requirements for graduation, who fulfill Honors Program course requirements and who have an overall grade point average of 3.0 or above will graduate with GENERAL HONORS designation. (Existing graduation honors based solely on grade-point average will continue and run parallel to the Honors Program). 2. Voluntary transfer into the regular degree program: Some students may elect not to qualify for GENERAL HONORS and choose only portions of the Honors curriculum to satisfy standard graduation requirements. 3. Mandatory transfer into the regular degree program: Upon a review of a candidates perfor- mance by the Honors Academic Policy and Planning Committee, a student may be dropped from the program if his or her grade point average falls below 3.0. A student whose grade point average falls below 3.0 will be counseled and informed that he or she will be dropped from the program if he or she fails to achieve a semester grade point average of 3.0 the following semes- ter. A student should seek to maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or above at all times. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Continuing Education, Com Development The Division of Public and Continuing Education The Division of Public Service and Continuing Education at Albany State University provides lifelong learning and educational services to tbe citizens of Soutbwest Georgia who need nontraditional program- ming and systems of delivery. The various programs of the Division of Public Service and Continuing Edu- cation are classified as non-credit Category I Continuing Education Units, (CEUs) or Category 11 for confer- ences, independent study, and pre-college programs through the Public Service Institute and file Holley Insti- tute. Off campus credit courses are arranged in cooperation with the various academic colleges and schools of the University. The curricula provide sound educational programs, which give the participant general as well as spe- cialized education. The non-credit category includes courses for career development, personal enrichment, special conferences, workshops, lectures, institutes, and consultant services for a variety of professional and community needs. Independent study may be arranged at the high school and University levels through dis- tance learning such as GSAMS, satellite, and/or web based instruction. All programs are planned for citi- zens who have varied backgrounds, different levels of maturity and limited time to further their education. The Public Service Institute serves as the centralized outreach coordinating of the University. Public ser- vice at Albany State University is based on two important principles. First, public service programs are deter- mined by the needs of the people in the communities, and second, administers, faculty, staff and students must live, work and play among the citizens they serve. As such, Albany State University designs its pub- lic service programs to adapt to the changing needs of society through careful assessment and strategic plan- ning. Service is rendered through ongoing consultation, technical assistance, direct service, short-term instruction, training and other assistance that yield opportunities for continued learning, growth and devel- opment. SDli Credit Individual Staff Development Units for school system employees and other educational agencies may be awarded contingent upon the PRIOR APPROVAL of the appropriate certifying agent for the respective educational agency. Non-Credit Courses Non-credit courses are offered in the following areas: The Arts Computers Foreign Languages Health Issues Teleconferences Womens Issues Just Plain Fun! English Language Professional Development Youth Courses Cooperative Education The Cooperative Education Program is designed to complement a student's formal education with a series of paid, productive work experience in a field related to a students career or educational goals. The cooperative segments can begin during the sophomore year and continue during the junior and senior years. The program enables students to prepare realistically for meaningful careers by allowing them to relate classroom theory to practical application on the job. While students are engaged in productive employment, they will have the chance to observe skilled professionals at work in their fields of specialty-an opportuni- ty which will help them decide whether their vocational aspirations show promise of long range personal satisfaction. The Co-op Program at Albany State University is open to all students in all areas of professional inter- ests and preparation. The requirements for admission into the Co-op Program are as follows: 1. Successful completion of thirty (30) semester hours of academic credit with a 2.5 grade point average or better out of a possible 4.0. 2. Successful completion of a series of interviews with the Director/Coordinator of Cooperative Education. A transfer student must meet both the above requirements and must have completed at least twelve (12) semester hours of academic work at Albany State University with a 2.5 grade point average or better out of a possible 4.0. Off-Campus Programs Off-Campus Programs are coordinated by the Office of Academic Affairs and are thereby governed by all policies of Academic Affairs. For the purpose of off-campus instruction, the Vice-President for Academ- ic Affairs is assisted by a coordinator who, in this capacity, works with deans and chairpersons of academ- ic units to assist them with assessing the educational offerings at sites within the Universitys service area. For efficiency, the University has identified off-campus program sites that are dispersed throughout its geographical area. All off-campus programs or courses are offered at or via these off-campus sites. Off-campus sites are currently located at Bainbridge, Thomasville, the Marine Corps Logistics Base, Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, Fitzgerald, Pearson, and Tifton. An Instructional Center Liaison serves each off-campus site where there is a need. The instructional center liaison will coordinate instructional activities offered at and via that site. These persons will relate directly with the corresponding departmen- tal chairperson and coordinator of Off-Campus Programs in providing for programs at the off-campus site. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog ALBANY STATE Military Science Department of Military Science Army ROTC Program Reserve Officers Training Corps Albany State University offers courses in Basic and Advanced Military Science. The basic courses, taken during the freshman and sophomore years, are designed to teach principles and techniques of leadership and to develop in each student an understanding of the role of the Army in the defense of the United States. The purpose of the advanced course, taken during the junior and senior years, is to educate selected students in a balanced course of officer training, both theoretical and practical, which will qualify them to perform the duties of a commissioned officer in tire Army of the United States. Upon receiving the Bachelors degree each student who successfully completes the advanced course will be commissioned as a second lieutenant in one of the career branches in the United States Army. While participating in the advanced course, each student is paid $200 per month for the academic school year, not to exceed 10 months for each of the two years. Additionally, during the summer between the junior and senior years, while the student attends the Advanced ROTC Summer Camp, he/she will receive approximately one-half of a second lieutenants pay for the five-week period. Optional activities include participating in Ranger Challenge, Drill Team, Color Guard, Pershing Rifles Military Fraternity, planned weekly Field Training Exercises (FTXs), and a host of fund raising activities throughout the school year. Two-Year Program For those students who were unable, or did not elect, to enroll in the basic course and who desire to pursue a commission, the Army has developed a two-year program. The requirements of the basic course can be met by attending a six-week course. Veterans who wish to pursue a commission may enter the advanced program with evidence of satisfactory prior service, appropriate academic standing and approval of the Professor of Military Science. Students with at least two to four years of JROTC and desiring to pursue a commision may enter the advanced course, must provide a cadet performance report from their instructor, be academically aligned as a junior and approved by the Professor of Military Science.

Moral-to develop in the cadet a high sense of duty and the attributes of character, with emphasis on integrity, discipline and motivation essential to the profession of arms. 3. Physical-to develop in the cadet those physical attributes essential to a career as an officer in the United States Army. 4. Military-to provide a broad military education rather than individual proficiency in the tech- nical duties of junior officers. Such proficiency is of necessity, a gradual development, the responsibility for which evolves in the graduates themselves and upon the commands and schools to which they are assigned after being commissioned.

The CETL promotes successful teaching and learning through the providing student comprehensive support systems to help students become more proficient learners and providing opportunities for the faculty to build capacity to become effective instructors. The prima- ry focus of the Center is to foster high levels of academic achievement of students from initial matricu- lation to graduation. Learning Support Services The university provides learning support services to assist students in improving and enhancing skill development in reading, English and mathematics. Learning support services are designed for students whose test results indicate need-for additional training to remedy deficiencies in reading, English and math- ematics. Students who do not meet the Universitys established admission requirements, as reflected by Scholas- tic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Testing (ACT) scores, are required to take the Collegiate Place- ment Examination (CPE) to determine proficiency in reading, English and mathematics. Students will be required to take Learning Support courses (non-credit) to remove the identified deficiencies in either of the three subjects listed above, as indicated by the CPE results. Students must take the required Learning Support courses during the first semester of enrollment at the university and continue taking these courses each semester of enrollment until all requirements have been met. Learning Support students may not accumulate more than 20 hours of academic credit before com- pleting all Learning Support requirements, thus they will not be allowed to take further credit courses until all Learning Support requirements are met. Students enrolled in Learning Support courses and college credit courses may not drop or withdraw from Learning Support courses and remain in college credit courses. The students academic advisor must advise and approve the schedule of a student who is withdrawing or dropping a course(s). Learning Support Courses The following non-degree credit courses are offered in Learning Support: ENGL 0098 Basic English ENGL 0099 Basic English MATH 0097 Basic Math MATH 0099 Basic Math READ 0098 Developmental Reading READ 0099 Development Reading Learning Support Suspension A student must satisfy academic deficiencies within a specified time frame established by the Board of Regents. A student who has not completed requirements for exiting a Learning Support area (English, read- ing, mathematics) after twelve semester hours or three semesters whichever occurs first, will be suspended. That student may not be considered for readmission within three years of the suspension. Prior to suspension, a student may appeal in writing to the Director of the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning for one additional course. The student must be individually evaluated and determined to have a reasonable chance of success, must be in an exit level course and must have reached the limit in only one Learning Support area. If granted the additional course, the student may enroll in only the Learn- ing Support course. Other Services In collaboration with other departments at the university, the CETL offers support tutorials for students in various content areas. In addition to content area tutorials, workshops and training sessions will be pro- vided to support the general population in various subjects needed. The CETL supports faculty development needs in collaboration with the Educational Technology Train- ing Center (ETTC) and in conjunction with various departmental programs at the University. 2001-2004 Undergraduate Catalog The Weekend University Realizing the need to offer a curriculum for a non-traditional student population, Albany State Uni- versity has developed the Weekend University (WEU). WEU provides non-traditional students an oppor- tunity to get a college degree by completing core curriculum requirements through a series of weekend courses. ' The University defines its target audience as non-traditional students who have been out of high school at least five years or whose high school class graduated at least five years ago. Other criteria defin- ing the non-traditional student include those holding a high school diploma from an accredited or approved high school as specified in the University System of Georgia Board of Regents Policy; Section 402.0101 or having satisfactorily completed the GED, having earned fewer than 30 transferable semester credit hours and having not attended college within the past five years (or in good standing at the last college attended if admitted to the college as a non-traditional student). Albany State University recognizes that students needs today cannot be met with yesterdays respons- es. We can not ignore the disparities that exist between age groups, particularly those 25 and older. Just adding a weekend program without adequate support services will continue to adversely impact institu- tions that do not consider the specific needs of students who enroll in these programs. Albany State University provides the same high quality services extended to day students. This does not mean that each area has to be fully staffed, but if the need arises, the services will be available. WEU students pay the same tuition and fees paid by day students and they deserve the same services.

Through the cooperation of several departments, the College of Arts and Sciences also offers training in the areas of pre-law, pre-medicine, pre-dentistry and pre-pharmacy. Pre-Medicine Admission to medical school usually requires a minimum of three years of undergraduate study or, preferably, a Bachelors degree. A Bachelors degree with a major in Biology or Chemistry and minor in one of the sciences offers excellent preparation for admission to medical school. (Students interested in medi- cine are advised by the pre-med advisor.) Pre-Medical Technology This is a two-year sequence offered by the Department of Chemistry with emphasis on the Core Cur- riculum and courses in biology, chemistry, and mathematics. At the end of the second year, students in the program transfer to a school offering a degree in Medical Technology. Pre-Pharmacy Pre-pharmacy students are advised to take nine semesters of courses in the areas of chemistry and biology before transferring to a school of pharmacy Pre-Law The requirements for entrance to law school can be satisfied in one of several majors. Two, three or four years in a B.A. or B.S. degree program can comprise the pre-law program. Interested students should select a degree program and electives which will help them to attain the following objectives: (1) fluency in writ- ten and spoken English; (2) the ability to read difficult material with rapidity and comprehension; (3) a solid background in American History and Government; (4) a broad basic education in social and cultural areas; (5) a fundamental understanding of business, including basic accounting procedures; and (6) the ability to reason logically. 2001 -2004 Undergraduate Catalog Department of Criminal Justice The Department of Criminal Justice offers Bachelor of Science degrees in Criminal Justice and Forensic Science and the Master of Science degree in Criminal Justice. The programs prepare students for professional employment in the criminal justice system and/or for graduate studies in criminal justice and law. The cur- riculum is both broad and flexible enough to permit students to pursue course work in a wide variety of criminal justice topics cutting across law enforcement, courts, corrections, research, policy analysis and planning and operations. Students are encouraged to take internships in criminal justice, social service and/or human service agencies. A minor in Criminal Justice studies, requiring 18 hours of designated study, is offered with a concen- tration in the core curriculum. The Criminal Justice Department also has established 2+2 programs that permit students at selected area two-year colleges to transfer to the baccalaureate program in Criminal Justice at Albany State University without loss of credit.

All majors must earn a minimum grade of C in each art course. Majors must perform satisfactorily on the Regents Test and complete the Graduate Record Examination, The Bachelor of Arts degree in Music offers applied concentration in voice, piano, wind instruments, and percussion. The program also offers courses in music theory, ear-training, counterpoint, form and analysis, music history, and literature with emphasis on performance, leading to further study at the graduate or pro- fessional level. Participation in performance organizations relative to the students area of applied specialty is also required. Music majors may enter the discipline either at the freshman or transfer level. It is impor- tant for entering freshman music majors to identify themselves before or upon registration, as there are music division entrance requirements. It is important that potential music majors immediately become enrolled in the proper sequential theory and applied classes which begin at the freshman level. Transfer stu- dents will enter at a stage commensurate with their level of proficiency and prior instruction. For acceptance into major vocal or instrumental applied courses, students must have had prior instruction and demonstrate requisite proficiency via an audition before the music faculty. A second juried audition prior to acceptance into junior level applied courses is also required, and a final Senior Recital must be presented in order to graduate.

The department also offers a degree in science education with a broad based emphasis in this area. Biology The major in biology provides courses and course sequences leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in biology. The program prepares a student for professional careers and employment in biological sciences and teaching in the area of biology. Flexibility and design of the program aids in preparation for entrance into graduate, medical, pharmacy and dental schools, as well as other professional schools. Students interested in attending medical and dental schools choose from a select number of biology and chemistry courses and are advised by the Pre-Health Advisor. Students majoring in biology must complete a minimum of 32 hours in biblogy, including Biology 2111K, 2112K, 2211K, 2311K, 2801, 3101K, 3501K, 4001, 4002 and 4701K. Additionally, the Biology major must complete 13 hours of biology electives. The electives will be chosen by the student with the advisor from a list of approved electives. Biology majors and minors must make a C" or better in all biology, chem- istry, physics, and mathematics courses. Students must meet the requirements of the Core Curriculum and pass tiie Regents Exam. Students must also pass a major field examination (Area Concentration Achieve- ment Test) during the senior year. Science Education Majors (Broad Field Biology Emphasis) must complete a minimum of 56 hours in sci- ence, including BIOL 1801, 2111K, 2311K, 325QK, 3311K, 3501K, and 4805. Students must also meet the requirements of the Core Curriculum and pass the Regents and Praxis I Exams. Students are required to pass major field examinations (Praxis II) during the senior year. A grade of C or better is required in all science and mathematics courses and a science education major must maintain at least a 2.5GPA to graduate. (See teacher education advisor for additional requirements) Chemistry The major in chemistry provides courses and sequences leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry. The major program is designed to follow the criteria for baccalaureate degrees as set forth by the Committee on Professional Training of the American Chemical Society. The program prepares the student for professional employment after graduation and also provides strong academic and laboratory experiences for those students who wish to pursue graduate degrees in chemistry or professional schools. Students must meet the requirements listed in the Core Curriculum and pass the Regents examination. The major in chemistry must complete a minimum of 49 semester hours of chemistry. All students are required to earn at least a grade of C" in all chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics courses. All stu- dents are required to take the American Chemical Society standardized test in the area in which they are enrolled. Students must take a Major Field Achievement Test (MFAT) during the senior year. Engineering Albany State University offers two types of pre-engineering programs that lead to a Bachelor of Engi- neering degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology: (1) The Regents Engineering Transfer Program (RETP) and (2) The Dual Degree Program. The Regents Engineering Transfer Program (RETP) is a cooperative program between the Georgia Insti- tute of Technology and Albany State University that allows qualified students to attend Albany State Uni- versity for the first two years and then transfer to Georgia Tech to complete the requirements for a Bache- lor of Engineering degree. To be admitted to this program, high school students must meet the following requirements: (1) high school grade point average of B or better (2) at least 550 on the mathematics por- tion of the SAT, and (3) at least 450 on the verbal portion of the SAT. The Dual-Degree Program is also a cooperative program with the Georgia Institute of Technology and is designed for students who wish to have a broad liberal arts background in addition to their chosen field of engineering at Georgia Tech. After the completion of requirements in the two programs, the student will be awarded a B.S. degree from Albany State University and a B.S. degree in Engineering from Georgia Tech. To be admitted to Georgia Tech under this program, students should have an acceptable GPA at Albany State University. Students in the Dual Degree Program may include some engineering courses as electives that will be beneficial to their progress at Georgia Tech. Students may also matriculate at other engineering institu- tions after completing RETP and dual degree requirements at Albany State University. Students are assigned an advisor at Albany State University who will assist them in planning their academic program of study.

PSYCHOLOGY The major in Psychology provides courses that lead to a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology. The student who majors in psychology gains a fundamental understanding of the principles of human thought, emotion and behavior programs. In addition to the programs emphasis on psychological factors and human learning, biological and social determinants of human behavior are also emphasized as well as research methods. This broad based training prepares students to understand, evaluate and influence their own behavior as well as the behavior of others. Because psychology is relevant to numerous fields, job oppor- tunities for psychology majors are diverse and include employment in such areas as business and industry, educational settings, mental health agencies and hospitals, governmental agencies (including the military and law enforcement), etc. Students who plan to become professional psychologists or mental health prac- titioners will be prepared to continue their education in order to obtain a graduate degree in one of the more than 50 areas of specialization within psychology. The Psychology program is a member of the Council of Undergraduate Programs in Psychology. Departments with undergraduate programs in psychology, in insti- tutions accredited for such purposes by their regional accrediting association, are eligible for membership on the council. The major in Psychology requires: 1. Completion of a minimum of 120 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of all required examinations: Psychology test of the Graduate Records Examination (GRE), or the Major Field Area Test and a departmental exit examination. SOCIOLOGY The major in Sociology provides courses that lead to a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology. The soci- ology program offers a variety of courses designed to enhance the knowledge of sociocultural environ- ments, human social behavior and social groups. In contrast to psychology, which focuses on individual behavior, sociology examines human behavior at the group level. Sociologists attempt to explain how and why society changes over time, and how and why societies differ from one another. The program of study in sociology provides students with adequate competencies for successful graduate study in sociology, other related behavior sciences, gerontology and religion. The degree provides some employment options at the bachelors level, and by carefully selecting sociology and allied electives, students can enhance their employ- ment possibilities. Sociology majors can also pursue a dual degree with either psychology or social work as the second major. The major in Sociology requires: 1. Completion of 121 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of all required examinations: Sociology Test of the Graduate Records Examination (GRE), or the Major Field Area Test and a departmental examination. SOCIAL WORK The major in social work provides courses that lead to the Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) degree. The Social Work Program was awarded candidacy status for accreditation by the Council on Social Work Edu- cation (CSWE) in February, 1997. The primary purpose of the B.S.W. degree program is to educate the major entry level generalist practice in social work and social welfare, seeking to maximize human development and dignity, social justice and equality for diverse populations. The curriculum is comprised of a liberal arts base combined with professional foundation courses, skills and ethics. Preparation for a career in general- ist social work practice is augmented by a supervised field practicum. The major in Social Work requires: 1. Completion of a minimum of 120 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of the ACAT examination. A dual major program is also available for students interested in combining any two areas of study: Psy- chology and Sociology, Psychology and Social Work, Sociology and Social Work. Completion of a dual major requires one additional semester beyond the first degree. The department also offers minors in psychology and sociology. A minor program requires eighteen (18) semester hours in upper level prescribed courses along with elective courses.
