MOMENTUM N THE SYSTEM
Better Supply of School Teachers for Georgia
The University System whose universities and colleges already account for the majority of the public school teachers produced in Georgia has taken several major steps in a statewide program to expand and improve teacher education The goal is to remedy what has been described as a critical state of elementary and secondary teacher education
A new School of Education was established at Georgia State College in 1967
Since mid1966 more than 30 new degrees and programs in teacher education have been added at institutions throughout the state These include a number of graduate programs which bolster teacher education at all levels
There are now being developed Education Centers at six institutions The designation Education Center indicates special emphasis on regionally oriented graduate programs in addition to undergraduate programs in teacher education These Centers are located in different parts of the state This enables each of them to serve not only fulltime students at the institution but also a large number of employed teachers and other school personnel
To facilitate these new activities and the previously established programs the Board of Regents in the fall of 1967 added a Teacher Education Development Program and a director in the central office of the University System
The Board of Regents in making teacher education one of its highpriority programs has moved to concentrate substantial extra resources in this area A considerable amount of the additional state appropriations to the Board of Regents for 196768 for improving the quality of programs in the University System is being used to bolster teacher education
The new momentum has statewide significance in several ways More and better teachers as well as other school personnel will be trained in colleges and universities throughout Georgia Also the objective of the expanded and improved program is to provide a sufficient number of highly qualified teachers to relieve shortages in communities throughout the state
These new moves in teacher education programs affect teachers more than any other school personnel However they also are designed to expand and strengthen programs for other school personnel such as administrators counselors and school psychologists
Georgias Position in Teacher Education
The University System traditionally has given emphasis to teacher education However despite the existence of several widely known and highly regarded programs in this field the System institutions have not been supplying a sufficient number of elementary and secondary school teachers
University System Chancellor George L Simpson Jr stated the situation in a report in September 1966
Teacher training both for undergraduates and graduates is in a critical state in Georgia he said The facts are grim but they cannot be avoided he added in the report accompanying the request by the Board of Regents for state appropriations for the 196769 biennium
The figures he cited showed that Georgia produced fewer than half as many teachers as did North Carolina in 19652413 against 5236 the number produced in Georgia was not many more than half the 4101 produced in Tennessee and was only about twothirds the 3482 produced in Florida South Carolina which produced 1468 teachers was cited as the only state in the surrounding area that had a poorer record than Georgias

School Teachers Continued from Page 3
Georgia has made some progress since 1965 the number of teachers produced rose to 2676 in 1966 and to 2961 in 1967 But shortterm gains are not the only objective of the program It is recognized by the chancellor and by others close to the happenings and needs in teacher education that several years of continued development will be required to bring the supply into harmony with the demand
This is a longrange matter as well as a shortrange problem the chancellor says We are seeking not only to provide teachers in sufficient numbers we are concentrating also on quality so that schools will have enough choices of highly qualified applicants for teaching positions to be able to select the people they really need We have a large number of superior teachers in our public schools now We just simply need to do a better job of providing more of this kind of teacher
University System institutions produce approximately threefourths of the teachers educated in all colleges and universities in Georgia
How many teachers should be prepared each year in Georgia in order to insure an adequate number for the states elementary and secondary schools
There is no pat answer to this question since there are so many variable factors However Chancellor Simpson said recently that he believes Georgia needs to produce close to 5000 teachers annually in order to provide a sufficient number year in and year out on a longrange basis
It is not expected that all of the teachers produced in Georgia will remain in Georgia to teach or even that anything like all of them will follow teaching as a career anywhere The University System program in teacher education is based on the natural expectation that many of the Georgiatrained teachers will continue to take jobs in other states and that Georgia will continue to attract substantial numbers of teachers with degrees from outofstate institutions
It is generally recognized that Georgia universities and colleges must produce the number of teachers needed in the state each year without taking into consideration the inmigration and outmigration of teachers in order to maintain a good balance
Education is One Continuous Effort
Chancellor Simpson cited the University Systems interest in education at all levels Improved teacher education is all the more important because education in Georgia is not divisible between the public schools and the University System he said Both deal with the same student of the same parents from the same community The education of this student is one continuous effort each stage depends upon all the stages that have gone before The level and the success of college and university work are largely dependent upon the quality of elementary and secondary work
The kind of work that students do in all elementary and secondary grades is so extremely dependent upon the kind of teachers in their classrooms that we cannot afford to do less than our best in teacher education development
Beginning of New Emphasis
The Board of Regents in the fall of 1966 when it requested additional state funds for the 196769 biennum was already taking some of the beginning essential steps toward expanding and improving teacher education
At the University of Georgia which already had one of the nations outstanding stateuniversity programs in teacher education a new College of Education building had been authorized
A Master of Education degree had been authorized for Georgia State College to put that institution in the graduate area in teacher education for the first time and to bolster undergraduate programs in this field
West Georgia College had been authorized to plan a Master of Education degree program in anticipation of additional funds for financing it The program was formally approved by the Board of Regents in January 1967 This degree along with the Master of Arts degree authorized simultaneously in addition to providing masters degree work added strength to that institutions longestablished undergraduate programs in teacher education
Valdosta State College had been authorized to initiate the Master of Education degree which was that institutions first graduate program in any field The further strengthening of Valdosta States established undergraduate program in teacher education was one of the Regents objectives in making this move
Georgia Southern College one of the largest sources of teachers for many years had been given authorization to add additional subject matter courses to bolster its teacher education program This move required additional support at the graduate level in subject matter areas
From the beginning of the greatly steppedup emphasis in the field of teacher education the objective has been to see that the programs are offered close to the people who need them
One consideration is that the programs be located in institutions where the demand by undergraduate or graduate students or by students in both categories for teacher education is sufficient This includes insuring that the programsparticularly graduate degree programsare provided at places within easy reach of employed teachers and other school personnel One of the high hopes the University System officials hold for the new moves in teacher education is that the number of teachers seeking masters degrees graduatelevel certificates and doctors degrees will increase rapidly
New School of Education
The School of Education for Georgia State College was authorized by the Board of Regents in January 1967 and became effective in September This action was in
4
keeping with the aim of putting teacher education programs in areas of at least fairly heavy concentration of population
Georgia State in the heart of Atlanta is within easy commuting distance of an estimated 1400000 people Close to onethird of Georgias elementary and secondary school teachers and other professional school personnel live and work within this area The establishment of the new School opens opportunities for employed school personnel to work on advanced degrees One consideration is that courses leading to the advanced degrees in education like those of other programs at the institution will be offered in the evening as well as during the day
Establishment of the School of Education opens the way for Georgia State College to seek authorization for the Doctor of Education degree which would give the institution a full range of programs in teacher education The University of Georgia is now the only institution in the University System that is authorized to award the Doctor of Education degree
A dean for the new School of Education Roy Maxwell Hall was elected by the Board of Regents in January effective July 1 1968 Dr Hall is presently the dean of the College of Education at the University of Delaware and was formerly the chairman of the Department of Education at the University of Texas
Major Developments Since Mid1966
The programs authorized since July 1 1966 indicate much about the manner and the direction in which the teacher education programs of the University System are being developed
These include the following
Georgia State CollegeBachelor of Science in Education degree with majors in early elementary education and special education for teachers of the deaf Bachelor of Science in Education with majors in secretarial science bookkeeping and business management and comprehensive business education transferred to the School of Education from the School of Business Administration Master of Arts for Teachers degree with a major in chemistry Master of Education degree with majors in administration and supervision early elementary education special education for teachers of children with learning disability special education for teachers of the emotionally disturbed and vocational rehabilitation counseling sixthyear program in administration and supervision in counseling and in special education EMR learning disabilities and behavioral disorders
West Georgia CollegeBachelor of Science in Education degree with majors in early childhood education physical education for women and special education for teachers of the mentally retarded Master of Education degree with majors in elementary education junior high school education secondary education guidance and counseling biology and mathematics
Valdosta State CollegeBachelor of Arts degree with a major in art education and Master of Education degree
with majors in elementary education and secondary education The Master of Education degree was initially authorized prior to July 1 1966 to become effective in the fall quarter of 1967 authorization for accelerating the effective date to the summer quarter of 1967 was given in October 1966
Georgia Southwestern College Bachelor of Science in Education degree with majors in elementary education and secondary education
Savannah State College Master of Education degree with a major in elementary education
Georgia Southern College Master of Education degree with majors for school psychometrists and reading specialists and sixthyear programs for school administrators and school psychologists
The education courses in a teachers degree constitute only a portion of the total college course work A teacher particularly a secondary school teacher must have a very strong background in subjectmatter courses
Teacher education programs in the University System have been bolstered substantially in recent years by the addition and strengthening of subjectmatter degree programs The subjectmatter degree programs are of special significance at the graduate level of teacher education With this philosophy the System has authorized the establishment of several graduate programs in the subjectmatter areas at those institutions offering graduate work for teachers
Present Programs in System
All of the University Systems senior colleges and universities except the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Medical College of Georgia offer degrees for teachers several of them also offer degrees and graduate certificates for other school personnel
Fourteen institutions offer bachelors degrees Of these eight also offer masters degrees four also offer sixthyear certificates and one offers a doctors degree
In addition nine junior colleges include in their twoyear curricula courses that are applicable toward a bachelors degree in education
Presently six University System institutions offer programs leading to certification as early elementary teachers 14 as elementary teachers six as junior high teachers 13 as high school teachers four as special education teachers and five as other professional personnel
Within this last category there is one program leading to certification as a curriculum director five as school counselor three as administrator one as visiting teacher one as school librarian two as reading specialist two as school psychologist two as school psychometrist and one as school lunch director
Students desiring certification as high school teachers may choose teaching majors from any one of 28 fields

School Teachers Continued from Page 5
These teaching fields and the number of programs offered by University System institutions in each field include business education 12 driver education 3 English 11 French 9 physical science 6 biology 8 chemistry 8 mathematics 11 physics 3 social science 5 economics 1 history 6 geography 1 Latin 1 political science 2 speech 3 agriculture 2 distributive education 1 German 1 home economics 4 industrial arts 3 Spanish 8 trade and industrial 2 art 6 music 10 health and physical education 6 hospital and home instruction 1 and teacherlibrarian 10
Graduates of approved fouryear or graduate programs at the institutions are automatically certified upon the completion of the approved program and the recommendation of the institution To obtain approval of a program the institution submits the teacher education program to the State Department of Education A Visiting Committee then evaluates the program and reports to the State Department of Education which may grant or deny approval
There are also certain special programs and activities aimed at teacher education which are offered by the University System institutions
Inservice programs for teachers are offered by several institutions These are continuing education academiccredit courses offered for teachers on and off the campuses of the institutions
Two University System institutionsthe University of Georgia and Georgia State Collegealso participate in the Atlanta Area Teacher Education Service This is a coordinating agency for inservice teacher education programs offered by the two System institutions two private universities and the Atlanta Area school systems In the fall quarter of 1967 53 courses were offered to a total of 910 students
Education Centers
The Education Centers being developed at six institutions in the System will be located at the University of Georgia Georgia College at Milledgeville Georgia Southern College Georgia State College West Georgia College and Valdosta State College
It is anticipated that additional Education Centers will be established
These Centers are being established in only those institutions which offer programs at the graduate levels Each of them will serve as a center of educational activities for a large surrounding area
In addition to offering collegecredit work for fulltime students and inservice teachers the Centers will offer a large amount of noncredit work The courses conferences seminars and workshopscredit and noncreditfor employed teachers and other professional school personnel working toward graduate degrees are some of the most
promising features of the Centers University System officials and staff members believe
It is expected that employed teachers and other school personnel will make frequent visits to the Centers 12 months a year in addition to those who attend credit courses during the summer or in afterschool hours and on Saturdays during the regular academic year there will be many who will attend noncredit demonstrations seminars and special instructional programs
A fulltime student or an employed teacher for example may observe teaching techniques of a widelyrecognized master teacher He may observe the latest techniques and facilities in educational television He may have the opportunity to learn highly valuable techniques of a renowned school psychologist He may get a demonstration of how to teach seventhgrade art He may see a demonstration of computer aids for teaching or for other school uses
The Centers are being developed with the idea of concentrating within each of them the most uptodate school materials equipment and demonstrations and the best teacher educators as regular faculty members and as consultants that can be obtained
Each Center will offer new resources that can be drawn upon by all colleges in the region in which it is located says Chancellor Simpson Other institutions can proceed to develop new strength in their teacher education programs with confidence that this extra help is close by
The regular teacher education facilities of the institution in each instance are expected to be used for the Education Center As new facilities are authorized for the institutions where the Centers are being located these will be designed to fit the special needs that are envisioned
Teacher Education Development Program
The University Systems Teacher Education Development Program was initiated in September 1967 with Haskin R Pounds as the director
Dr Pounds is on leave from his position as assistant professor in the University of Georgias College of Education He works closely with teacher education officials and staff members of the institutions and of the State Department of Education and with other persons closely associated with the preparation of teachers He is making a thorough study of the present status and the future needs of all teacher education programs in institutions of the University System He provides liaison between the University System and the State Department of Education and other groups concerned with teacher education and works with University System institutions in developing new programs and modifying programs to meet current and anticipated needs for teachers in the areas of concentration where needs exist
Dr Pounds also works closely with the University System Academic Committee on Teacher Education This committees membership includes from one to three representatives of each institution in the University System depending upon the size of the institution

Summer Program in Languages Will be Conducted in 1968 In Three Overseas Countries
The Study Abroad Programs of the University System will be conducted in France Germany and Spain during the summer of 1968
These programs are sponsored by the Board of Regents for the benefit of all institutions in the System The programs are designed to help the seriousminded language student achieve fluency and accuracy in the use of his target language and gain an appreciation of the culture of the people that only personal experience in the country can give
To be eligible for admission the student must have achieved graduate senior or junior status by June 1968 in one of the institutions of the University System The completion of at least four basic courses in the language or the equivalent and an overall average of B or better are among the requirements
The eightweek programs will be conducted at the University of Dijon France at the University of Freiburg Germany and at the University of Salamanca Spain The programs in France and in Spain will begin on July 3 Since the summer course at the University of Freiburg does not begin until August 1 a special program of instruction in language and literature will be set up especially for the Study Abroad group during the month of July
The students in France and in Spain will live in University dormitories and will take their meals in the University restaurant The students in Germany will live in private homes
The host universities give classes at all levels from elementary to graduate There are also courses especially designed for teachers who already have some command of the language An examination will be administered before the opening of school to determine the level of competence for the placement of students
The host institution will grant twelve hours of credit for the satisfactory completion of any of these programs
Each group will arrive at the host university one week before the opening of the session During this week there will be an intensive orientation program consisting of language drills lectures on the European university system guided tours of the city and discussions of cultural differences
Classes at the host university will be conducted exclusively in the native language In addition to the programs of instruction in language and culture there will also be cocurricular activities sponsored by the host university and the Study Abroad Program These include excursions to points of interest in the countryside around the host university At the end of the 1967 sessions in France and Spain the students also went on sevenday tours of the country These weeklong tours will be planned again in 1968 for each of the three countries if the size of the group warrants it
The cost for each of the three programs will be 850 The amount each student pays includes travel room board tuition weekend excursions and the final tour
Financial assistance cannot be obtained directly from the Study Abroad Programs However most institutions in the University System are making their financial aid programs available to students who will participate in the Study Abroad Programs Application for financial aid should be made directly to the Financial Aid Office of each institution
Application forms for the Study Abroad Program will be available in the office of the head of the language department of each institution
S C Mangiafico Georgia College at Milledgeville is director of the Study Abroad Programs
The French and German programs were initiated in the summer of 1966 The Spanish program was initiated in the summer of 1967
The ultimate goal of the programs is threefold to improve language teaching in the state by raising teacher competence to attract more undergraduates to the field of language teaching and to afford earnest students in other fields the opportunity to gain proficiency in the use of a foreign language
The student center being constructed on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology will contain 105681 square feet of space

Georgia Southwestern College was authorized to increase its student charges effective with the fall quarter
1968 The following increases were approved food service 21 meals per week from 112 to 120 per quarter dormitory room from 75 to 80 per quarter and health service from 5 to 8 per quarter
These increases were necessitated by rising costs of food and labor the need for higher salaries for nurses and doctors and increased ground maintenance costs related to the expanding campus the Regents were told
Authorization was given for two additional options in the quarterly food service plan at the University of Georgia effective with the spring quarter The additional options are three meals per day Monday through Friday 160 and two meals per day Monday through Friday 120
The University presently offers the following options a meal ticket for three meals per day seven days a week 175 a coupon book for two meals per day seven days a week 138 and cash per item on the cafeteria line
The food service program at the University is entirely voluntary The new fiveday plan will probably appeal to a larger group of students and thereby increase the sales volume in an amount sufficient to cover rising costs of operation the Regents were told

Administration A W Jowdy the Department of Pharmacognosy Lee C Schramm
These changes were necessitated largely by the great increase in the size of the faculty and the number of students in the School The present enrollment is approximately 450 students including 30 graduate students The creation of the five departments under the general direction of department heads will make possible closer supervision of the instructional program of the School and will also permit more effective encouragement of the research activity the Regents were told

Teachers Continued from Front Cover
State Department of Education
It was noted that the data include only the college graduates meeting teacher certification requirementsnot those actually entering teaching positions In recent years approximately three out of four of the graduates meeting certification requirements entered teaching in Georgia in the same year in which they became eligible
Chancellor Simpson called the increased production of teachers one of the most significant accomplishments in the University System I cannot think of anything we are doing that is more important he said
He attributed a substantial percentage of the 1968 gain to the expansion and improvement of teacher education programs in the University System during the past two years During this period Augusta College Armstrong State College and Georgia Southwestern College completed their transition from junior college to senior college status all of these institutions have begun awarding baccalaureate degrees in teaching The programs in teacher education already in existence at other institutions in the System have been expanded and strengthened
Among the other factors credited for some of the increase in 1968 were growth of the overall number of graduates of the System institutions increases in teachers salaries and continued improvement in the attractiveness and professional status of the teaching profession
Continued Growth Expected
Chancellor Simpson does not look for the increase in annual preparation of teachers in the years immediately ahead to equal the gain of 1968 In each year in the foreseeable future he said the number of teachers prepared by the University System institutions is expected to be in the neighborhood of 300 to 500 more than in the year before Annual increases in
the years immediately prior to 1968 were 81 in 1966 and 220 in 1967
In the teacher education programs throughout the System special attention is being given to increasing the supply of teachers in science mathematics and other areas in which extraordinary shortages exist
The preparation of new teachers is only one part of the overall teacher education development program that has been receiving greatly increased emphasis in the System since 1966 Another vital part includes expansion and improvement of graduatelevel programs and other offerings designed to upgrade the qualifications of currently employed teachers
Masters degree programs in teacher education have been added at three colleges enabling these institutions to offer graduate work for the first time and graduate programs in subjectmatter areas that strengthen teacher education have been added at several institutions
Education Centers concentrating primarily on graduate programs in teacher education but also providing extra strength at the undergraduate level have been authorized for six institutions
The Coastal Area Teacher Education Service to serve southeast Georgia and the Northwest Georgia Teacher Education Service to serve the area designated by its name have been established Both of these area organizations along with the longestablished Atlanta Area Teacher Education Service involve cooperative efforts of the colleges and universities and the local public school systems to enable currently employed teachers to upgrade their qualifications
With the exception of the Medical College of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology all of the 16 senior colleges and universities in the System offer teacher education programs eight of these institutions offer graduate programs to prepare teachers All nine of the junior colleges offer lowerdivision courses that prepare students to pursue teacher education upon transferring to senior colleges and universities

Statement on Disruptive and Obstructive Behavior
A statement relating to Disruptive and Obstructive Behavior on campuses of the University System of Georgia was adopted by the Board of Regents in October
The action reaffirms full support for freedom of expression including the rights of faculty members and students to engage in debate discussion and peaceful and nondisruptive protest and dissent At the same time it stipulates that any student faculty member administrator or employee clearly disrupting or obstructing or attempting to disrupt or obstruct any educational program or other authorized activity on a campus shall be subject to disciplinary procedures that will include possible dismissal or termination of employment
In announcing the action John W Langdale chairman of the Board said
The Board of Regents has been keenly cognizant of disruptive and obstructive activities on some college campuses in recent months and years Accordingly its members have given careful and extended consideration to the Boards responsibility in preserving throughout the University System an atmosphere conducive to learning at its highest level
We felt that a policy statement should be formulated at this time when calm conditions prevail and when the statement can be interpreted without any suggestion of reference to a specific incident
The full text of the statement is as follows
The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia reaffirms its policies to support fully freedom of expression by each member of the academic community and to preserve and protect the rights and freedom of its faculty members and students to engage in debate discussion peaceful and nondisruptive 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 of irresponsible disruptive and obstructive actions by students and faculty which tend to destroy academic freedom and the institutional structures through which it operates
In recent years a new and 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 sitins 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 or the use or display of verbal or written obscenities involving indecent 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 activities 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 new problem Under the Constitution of the State of Georgia 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 University System and the preservation of academic freedom in these institutions The Board cannot and will not divest itself of this responsibility
Of equal or even greater importance such action of force as has been described above destroys the very essence of higher education This essence is found in the unhampered freedom to study investigate write speak and debate on any aspect or issue of life This freedom which reaches its full flowering on college and university campuses is an essential part of American democracy comparable to the jury system or the electoral process
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 concert 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
The Board reaffirms its belief that all segments of the academic community are under a strong obligation and have a mutual responsibility to protect the campus community from disorderly disruptive or obstructive actions which interfere with academic pursuits of teaching learning and other campus activities
The Board of Regents understands that this policy is consistent with resolutions adopted by the American Association of University Professors in April 1968 by the Association of American Colleges in January 1968 and by the Executive Committee of the Association for Higher Education in March 1968 condemning actions taken to disrupt the operations of institutions of higher education

Student Faculty Exchanges Authorized at Two Colleges
Interinstitutional exchanges of students and faculty members at Armstrong State College and Savannah State College were authorized in November by the Board of Regents
Students enrolled and paying fulltime fees at either of these two senior colleges in Savannah may take at least one course at the other institution without paying an additional fee Credit for work satisfactorily completed under this arrangement will be transferred to the students home institution and accepted there
In the exchange of faculty members it is anticipated that initially no faculty member will be teaching more than one course at the institution which is not his home institution It is planned that the first exchanges will be in the fields of art and music No extra compensation is provided for the faculty members included in the exchanges The home institution will continue to pay the full salary of each faculty member involved
There will be no transfer of funds between the institutions for the exchange of students or faculty members
Presidents Henry L Ashmore of Armstrong State College and Howard Jordan Jr of Savannah State College made a joint request through Chancellor George L Simpson Jr for the action
Chancellor Simpson said the exchange of students was authorized in order to serve the students better and to obtain the fullest and most economical use of faculty and resources
Under the faculty exchange arrangement he said joint faculty appointments may be made by the two institutions This will enable more effective utilization of existing facilities and may be of some consequence in recruiting new faculty members of these institutions he added
This cooperative arrangement is indicative of what we can and intend to do in promoting more effective utilization of personnel and facilities among the institutions of the University System the Chancellor said
Cooperative arrangements for conducting academic degree programs at other institutions of the University System have been approved by the Board
Authorization was given in July 1967 for Georgia State College to offer two advanced chemistry degree programs in cooperation with the Georgia Institute of Technology The Master of Science degree with a major in chemistry and the Master of Arts for Teachers degree with a major in chemistry are offered at Georgia State College but some of the courses are taught at Georgia Tech
Approval was given in November 1968 for Kennesaw Junior College to confer the Associate in Arts degree with a major in police administration in cooperation with Georgia State College The generaleducation portion of the curriculum will be offered at the junior college at which the students will be enrolled Georgia State will provide the police administration courses
For several years a large portion of the nonprofessional academic work of students in nursing and allied medical sciences programs at the Medical College of Georgia Augusta has been provided by Augusta College

An agreement for the Georgia Institute of Technology to extend its dualdegree program to include four additional colleges was approved in December by the Board of Regents of the University System
The institutions to be added are Clark College Morehouse College Morris Brown College and Spelman College All of these are privately controlled undergraduate colleges affiliated with the Atlanta University Center
Scheduled to become effective in January 1969 at the beginning of the winter quarter the newly approved degree work will be conducted as a part of the 32 Plan of Engineering Education at Georgia Tech Participating students will attend one of the Atlanta University Centeraffiliated institutions for three academic years and Georgia Tech for two academic years Upon completing all requirements of the program at both institutions a student will simultaneously receive two degreesa Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree awarded by the Atlanta University Centeraffiliated college attended and one of the bachelors degrees in engineering awarded by Georgia Tech
A student may be jointly enrolled at both institutions from which he is seeking the dual degrees He will not be admitted to Georgia Tech with full juniorclass standing however until he has successfully completed three years of study at the other institution
Authorization for extending the dualdegree program was requested by President Edwin D Harrison of Georgia Tech and was recommended to the Board of Regents by Chancellor George L Simpson Jr of the University System Details were worked out by representatives of the Atlanta University Centeraffiliated colleges and of the Georgia Institute of Technology The proposal was endorsed by Georgia Techs College of Engineering Curriculum Committee and by the institutions Academic Senate Curriculum Committee and Executive Committee
The 32 Plan of Engineering Education has been in effect since 1954 between Georgia Tech and a number of liberal arts institutions in the South The institutions presently associated with Georgia Tech in this program are the University of the South Sewanee Tennessee Davidson College Davidson North Carolina the University of ChattanoogaChattanooga Tennessee Southwestern at Memphis Memphis Tennessee and the University of Georgia Athens
At the December meeting Chancellor Simpson said Georgia Tech had indicated an interest in extending the dualdegree program further to include additional institutions of the University System and perhaps some additional colleges outside the System
The dualdegree program is designed to be especially helpful in the preparation of engineers who will occupy positions of leadership in business manufacturing and government according to a statement in the 196869 General Catalog of Georgia Tech Additional work in liberal arts physical sciences and mathematics provided under the program was cited as one of the principal advantages
