Universi ty System of Georgia Information Digest 1983-84

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM

The beginnings of public higher education in the State can be traced to 1784 when the General Assembly set aside 40,000 acres of land for the endowment of "a college or semi nary of lea rni ng . " During the foll owi ng year, a charter was granted for establishment of the Unive rsity of Georgia. The State later provided appropriations for establishing the following branches: School of Technology in Atlanta, 1885 (now Georgia Tech); Geor gi a Normal an d IndustHal College for Girls, Milledgeville, 1889 (now Georgia College); Georgia State Industria l College for Col ored Youths Savannah, 1890 (now Savannah State College); and the South Georgia Norma l School , Valdosta, 1906 (now Valdosta Stat~ College). Later, the legislature established an agricultural and mechanical arts (A&M) school in each congressional district. During this period, higher education was uncoordinated, underfi n ~nced, and generally i n chaotic condition.
In 1929, Governor L. G. Hardman established a committee which was charged with recommending alterations to the condition. The most significant idea was the creation of a central governing board . On Aug ust 28 , 1931 , the Reorganization Act was signed which created the Board of Regen ts of the University System of Georgia . The Act called for the governor to appoint eleven members, one from each congressional district, and one at l arge.
In its January 1932 meeting, the Board adopted the fol lowing Statement of Plan:
It is the conviction of the Board of Regents that the people of Georg ia intended to ordain by the Act creating the Board that the twenty-six institutions comprising the University System should no longer function as separate, independent, and unrelated entities competing with each other for patronage and financial support.
The manifest purpose of the Act creating the Board of Regents is to unify and coor di nate the work of these institutions so that the educational program of each shall be integrated with t hat of every other institution and with the system as a whole. The res ult aimed at is a correlated, harmonious, and symmetrical structure f ree from wasteful duplications, but providing the maximum of educational opportunity to the students of the State. In short, the emphasis has been shifted from the interests of particular institutions to the interests of the State .
While the traditions, the welfare and the prestige of the several branches of the system will be an object of care on the part of the Board, all of their problems are to be fi nally resolved by the answer to the question: What will best serve the educational interests of t he State as a whole?
With this as the paramount consideration, the constant ai m of this body wi ll be to establish and maintain a system of higher education that will command the sympathy and support of our educational leaders, and at the same time successfully meet our needs by offering the young men and women of Georgia the maxi mum of education.
To accomplish this result, the Regents will, after careful study, take such steps that to them seem best to coordinate and unify these institut i ons so that they will be related i n purpose and regulated in scope. The only competition in which these schools will hereafter engage will be for preeminence in service and scholarsh i p.
The Reorganization Act of 1931 transferred to the new Board the responsibi l ity for 26 i nst i tut ions . The Board began immediate reorganization by abolishing the A&M schools and two additional schools and creating t wo new institutions. The net result was that the System was reduced to 18 institutions. The earliest recorded enro l lment was 8,035 in Fall 1933. The System was appropriated $1,900,500 by the State for 1932-33 but received only $1,6 24 ,928. In 1941, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools wit hdrew the accreditation of 10 University System institutions because of irregularities and incidences of outside interference into academic act i vit i es at the institutions. In 1943, newly elected Governor Ellis Arnall sponsored a Constitutiona l amendment to remove such interference by making the Board a Constitutional body. The amendment was overwhe l mingly approved by the voters.
The principles enumerated in the 1932 policy statement have guided the development of a unified system. Today the Board continues to have Constitutional authority to govern, control, and manage the University System, as reaffirmed in the approval of the new State Constitution in 1982. These powers include the authority for progralll approval or discontinuance, internal reallocation of t he budget, facil i ties const ruction, and decisions conce rning adding new institutions, upgrading or downgradi ng the level of an institution, or closu re or merger of institutions .
The University Sys tem is currently composed of 33 institutions (4 university level insti t uti ons , 14 senior colleges, 15 junior colleges). In addition, four of the juni or colleges maintain a postsecondary vocation al - tec hnical unit in cooperation with the State Board of Education.

ADVISORY COUNCILS

University System Advisory Council
The University System Advisory Council has the power to make recommendations to the Chancellor and through him to the Board of Regents regarding educational and administrative matters of concern to the University System. Membership is composed of the Chancellor, the Executive Vice Chancellor, and the presidents of the 33 institutions. The Advisory Council has both academic and administrative committees which formulate recommendati ons to be presented to the Advisory Council for consideration. Those matters originating with academic committees are first considered by the Administrative Committee on Academic Affairs prior to consideration by the Advisory Council. Membership on academic committees is limited to one represent~tive per institution offering work in the field with which the committee is concerned. Administrative committees are of two types: those in which representation consists of one representative from each institution and those with selective representation which are appointed by the Chancellor for the study of a restricted area of concern.

University System Student Advisory Council
The purpose of the Student Advisory Council (S.A.C.) is to provide a forum for communication and recommendation between students enrolled in University System institutions and the Chancellor, the Board of Regents, state government, and the public, concerning problems and issues in student-related areas. The S.A.C. also functions to promote better student government in System institutions. The S.A.C. meets five times a year and works closely with an advisor from the Chancellor's staff as well as the Chancellor. The Council also meets annually with the Board to present a report of its activities and recommendations.

UNIVERSITY SYSTEM COMPUTER NEH!ORK (USC N)
Created in 1970, the USCN functions as a coordinat i ng body t o promote cost-effective and efficient computing services for all 33 University System institutions. Through a network concept, USC N shares cent ral site hardwa r e, software, and systems with University units. The Networ k also di s seminates programs for administrative, academic, and research applicat i ons.
Central site hardware is located at the University of Georg i a. Minicomputers and small mai nframe computers located at the smaller two-year and four-year colleges throughout Georgia access this central site ha rdware and t he mainframes at the three university-level institutions via a teleconununications-based computing network. The three "host" si tes are Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of Technology, and the University of Georgia.
Support of the ~twork institutions is directed by the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Computing Services. The USC N operates t hroug h campus coordinators at each unit of the University System and through the Network Services staff at the central site. The 1atter is responsib l e fo r system support and operation of the central site computer, and assists the user community in problem resolution. USCN also supplies systems sup port for small computer systems and overall technical support for administrative and academic applications software.

HEADCOUNT enrollment represents an unduplicated count of all students who are enrolled in credit courses at a University System institution, regardles s of course load. Therefore, it i.ncludes both full-time and part-time students.
EF T (EQUIVALENT FULL-TIME) enrollment is the conversion of the number of all students enrolled full-time and part-time into an equivalent number of full-time students. It is calculated by dividi ng the total credit hours taken by all students during the quarter by 15, the load for a full-time student for a quarter.

GEORGIA PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES AND BIRTH RATES 1979-1993

A major determinant of Uni veri sty System enrollment is the size of the entering freshman class whic h is related to the pool of high school graduates in the same year. With decreasing birth rates from the 1960's and 1970's, the number of high school graduates began a proj ected ten-year decline in 1983. The percent decline in projected University System enrollment is not as great due to the anticipated increases in enrollment of non-traditional students and improved college participation rates and retention efforts.

The geographic distribution of University System institutions affo rds the citizens of Georgia a di vers ity of academic programs. In regard to trends in total degrees and certificates awarded, t he growth peri od began
in the 1960's, peaked in the mid 70's and began a slow decline. The largest number of degrees are conferred in business and education (approximately one half of all baccalaureate and graduate awards). Decreases have occurred in both the education and social sciences areas,but have been offset by growth in business and engineering progra~.

CORE CURRICULUM

The institutions of the University System share a common general mission in providing a Core Curriculum for all entering freshmen. The purpose is to aid and facilitate the educational progress of students as they pursue baccalaureate degrees within and among the units of the University System. It is designed to constitute the freshman and sophomore years of study and assure the transfer student that Core Curriculum courses successfully completed at one University System institution, or a fractional part thereof, will be accepted at another University System unit and apply toward a baccalaureate degree. The Core also provides for the preservation of the maximum possible amount of institutional autonomy.
The Core Curriculum is composed of ninety quarter credit hours of study divided among four areas of which sixty hours are in general education and thirty in a major area of study.

Area
I. Humanities II. Mathematics and Natural Science Il I. Social Sciences IV. Major area of study

The result has been that fewer transfer students lose credit and institutions,
particularly junior colleges, are no longer placed in the difficult position of attempting to provide excessive curricular offerings to satisfy lower division
requirements in various baccalaureate degree programs offered at all four-year institutions. Each institution has developed its Core Curriculum within the broad context of the above plan. The list is maintained in the Core Curriculum Handbook and is updated periodically as changes are recommended.

DEVELOPMEIVTAL STUDIES PROGRAM
The University System i mplemented a Developmental St udie s program of remedial cou rses beginning in Fall 1974 as a mea ns of bringing the reading, English, and mathemat ical skills of ma rgi nally prepared students up to standard .
Under current policy, all entering freshma n who meet the minimal level requi reme nts for admission but score below ~30 on t he verbal SAT (Scholast ic Aptitude Test) and/or below 330 on the mathemat 1cs SAT are required to take the Reading and English and/or Mathematics portions of the Basic Sk il ls Examination (BSE) placement test. Students who. fail to ma ke a sat isfactory score on the test(s) are required to enroll 1n Developm~ntal Stud1es cou r se(s) related to their individual deficiencies. No degree cred1t may be ear ned in the cou rses, but institutional credit is awarded.
Students who do not complete the exit requirements for the required Developmenta l Studies areas after four . attempts are excluded f rom t he Developmental Studies program and are not el 1g1ble for re-entry fo r one academi c year from dismissa l . Institutions may develop stri cter standards for excluding students who are not making satisfact ory prog ress towa rd completing the required Developmental Studies courses.

REGENTS TEST I t\G PROGRAM
The Regents Testing Program (RTP) was i nst it uted in all System institutions to l) provide System-wide information on the status of stude nt competence in the areas of reading and writin g and 2) provide a uni form means of identifying those students who fail to attain the minimum level s of competence in t he areas of reading and writing. Passing the test became a requireme nt for graduation from undergraduate degree programs (associ ate and bacca laureate) in 1973 .
The test is comprised of two part s, readi ng and essay, and is admini stered during a testing period at all System i nstitut ions. Each ins titution is responsible for its own test administration and arranges for supervisors and proctors. A test manual is prov ided. After the last test administration, all testing materials are retur ned to the RTP office for scoring. The reading part of the test is a 60-item, multiple choice test based on ten readi ng passages and five to eight questions about each passage. The questions are designed to assess voca bulary , comprehension, and analysis sk ills. The an swers are machine scored and the raw score is converted to a standard score with a range of 01-99. The current cut-off sco re for the readi ng section is 61.
To complete the essay part, students have one hour in which to choose and write on one of the two topics that are given. The completed essays are then distributed by the RTP office among six centers in the State where trained raters from Sys tem institut ions score them. Essays are ident ified by socia l security numbe r only so raters do not know the identity of the student or the institution. These independent raters score each essay on a 4-point scale (4-superior performance; 3-clearly passing performance; 2- barely pass i ng performance; 1-substandard or fa iling performance). The final score is usually the rating on which at lea st two of the three raters agree or t he midd le rating if there is no agreement. An essay is given a failing grade only if at least two of the three raters assign a failing grade.
All students who have taken and have not passed both parts of the test during the quarter in which they will have earned 75 hours of degree credit must take non-deg ree credit courses in remedial readi ng and/or writing until they have pass ed both components of the test. Institutions may not delay i nitial testing beyond the student's havi ng earned the sixtieth (60) ho ur of degree credit.

TYPICAL COST TO ATTEN:l A UNIVERSITY SYSTEM INSTITUTION ACADEMIC YEAR 1985

Georgia Resident Only
The following data were prepared using the mandatory fee data from the two previous fee tables plus estimated elective charges. The typical cost for each type of institution does not include non-resident tuition for out-of-state or out-of-country students, costs for books and supplies, transportation for commuting students, organization dues, and personal expenses (i.e., clothing, allowance).

I. UNIVERSITY - RESIDENTIAL

Due to the varying fee structure at the four universities, ~here is no typical cost for all university programs. However, the following estimate for Georgia Tech would also approximate a typical cost for a residential student enrolled in a non-professional program at the University of Georgia.

Note: The above hours were selected to demonstrate peak time usage rates for general classrooms only. Lower afternoon rates reflect several schedu1i ng pat terns:
1) Non-traditional commuter institutions often have difficulty in scheduling early to mid-afternoon classes because students, many of whom are employed full-time, cannot attend at this time.
2) Institutions often schedule lectures in general classrooms for the morning followed by laboratories in the afternoon; therefore, general classrooms are in less demand in the afternoon, whereas laboratories (not shown above) are in greater demand.
A 100% usage rate is difficult to obtain because some classes are cancelled due to low enrollment, and the reserved space is not available in time to establish other class usage.

Research and Service Activities

RESEARCH
The research mission in the University System is primarily concentrated in the four universities. A substantial portion of the research is conducted ' at the fo l lowing special research centers:
Agricultural Experiment Station (University of Georgia) - composed of three main stations at Griffin, Tifton, and Athens and five branch stations at Blairsville, Calhoun, Eatonton, Midville, and Plains; and extension-research centers at Attapulgus and Savannah
Georgia Tech Research Institute (formerly Engineering Experiment Station, Georgia Institute of Technology) - headquartered on the Georgia Tech campus with leased facilities at Dobbins Air Force Base and field offices in Albany, Augusta, Brunswick, Carrollton, Columbus, Douglas, Dublin, Gainesville, Macon, Madison, Rome, and Savannah
