Purpose

Over a quarter of a century ago, Philip Weltner, then president of
Oglethorpe University, wrote an introduction to the catalog in which he
expressed his ideas about the aims and purposes of an educated man, and
the aims and purposes of the college.

The Oglethorpe idea is to forge the strongest possible link between the
"academic" and "practical," between "human understanding" and "know-
how," between "culture" and "proficiency," between past and present. We
are persuaded that there is ultimately no contradiction between the con-
cepts represented in each of these usually divorced pairs.

There can be no basic disagreement among educators and laymen about
the common elements of the student's real needs and interests. He is to
learn as much as possible about the principles, forces, and laws influencing
or governing Nature, including human nature and human associations; to
learn to take account of these not only for their own sake but for growth,
guidance and direction for himself and others; to express his deepest
individuality in the work or calling most appropriate to his talents; and to
discover his proper place, role, and function in the complex relationships of
modern living.

Living should not be an escape from work. Education should therefore
encompass the twin aims of making a life and making a living. But inesca-
pably he is part and parcel of society. He fulfills himself by the measure in
which he contributes to the happiness and progress of his fellows. Educa-
tion, as an institution of society, has a social obligation. It cannot neglect
either the individual or the community without damage to both. The social
order at its best is best for the individual; the individual at his best is best for
society. The business of education is to strive for this optimum.

What difference should an education make? There are people, deficient
in formal schooling, who are happy and useful. They understand and get
along well with their neighbors. They are an influence for good in their
community and earn a living by honest effort. Any truly educated man
displays the same traits. The difference is in degree rather than kind.

Whereas it is usual for people to understand their fellows, how much
wider should be the sympathies of the educated man! His contacts go
beyond the living and embrace the seers of all the ages, who as his
companions should inform his mind and enlarge his vision.

Never before have people been so alive to the necessity of mastering
rather than being mastered by the economic and scientific forces at work in
our world. Creative brains and individual initiative, tempered by a strong
sense of social responsibility, are the only sources of payrolls compatible
with a free society, an improving living standard, and a better way of life.
Where else can we look for this creative urge other than to adequate
education of qualified talent!

PURPOSE / 7

We make no claim that formal education inevitably bestows these bene-
fits. We insist that it can. If that be true, how may the mark be reached? We
shall always have to remind ourselves as teachers that education is a
difficult art. The pitfalls we would shun are hard to escape. Of all people, the
teacher must remain the most teachable. The quest for wisdom is never-
ending. We, too, must continually grow in order to stimulate growth in those
who come to us to learn. We shall also have to remind ourselves that
subjects are merely the means; the objects of instruction are the persons
taught. We must be forever mindful that education, in order to be true to
itself, must be a progressive experience for the learner, in which interest
gives rise to inquiry, inquiry is pursued to mastery, and mastery at one point
occasions new interests in others. The cycle is never closed, but is a spiral
which always returns upon itself at some higher level of insight. Growth in
everything which is human must remain the dominant objective for the
individual and for society.

We therefore stand for a program of studies which makes sense from first
to last, which hangs together, and which promotes this desired result. Not
only in professional training but also in the education of the human per-
sonality, the materials of instruction must have a beginning, point in a
definite direction, and prepare for all that ensues. We necessarily make
provision for and give scope to diversified talents in preparation for varied
careers. But this much we all have in common: each man has to live with
himself and all have to live with their fellows. Living in community, with
human understanding, involves arts in which we are all equally concerned.

Throughout the essay there is the pervasive theme that the educated
person takes his education out with him, and involves his knowledge and
understanding in his contacts with others, in his private life, in his social life,
and in his career. A good education is one that pervades a life in all its
facets, and is not just, like fancy china, "good for Sundays only."

The post- World War II world has speeded up and changed some of its
values, but the Oglethorpe idea has not changed. We still feel that the aim of
a good education is, as Dr. Weltner put it, to enable our students to live "in
community, with human understanding." Our own community is a small
one, but small for more than just the pleasures that can ensue when
everybody knows everybody else. Our smallness enables us to work to-
gether as a unit, to achieve a unity of goals, and to grow together in our
pursuit of them. At Oglethorpe one's major or one's career goal is of less
importance than one's membership in an academic community dedicated
to the intelligent pursuit of the means to a better world. Our basic core of
required courses does more than give the student a general overview of the
world in which he lives; it gives him a common background with his fellows,
both in the student body and the faculty, out of which, like a fertile soil, the
Oglethorpe community, ever changing, ever improving, can grow and pros-
per.

Education in the English tradition

American higher education, as we know it today, has been influenced
primarily by three ideas of what a college or university ought to be. The first
is the model of the English college, particularly in the form developed at
Oxford and Cambridge in the 18th and 19th centuries. Most of the older
institutions in the United States were patterned on the English colleges of
that period. Many thoughtful observers have concluded that this is the finest
type of collegiate education produced by Western civilization.

The second idea is that of the German university, especially of the 19th
century. This model, which has had enormous influence on American
universities, stresses professional education (as in medicine and law),
graduate study leading to the Ph.D. degree, and specialized research. The
German university idea was imported into the United States by Johns
Hopkins and other institutions in the last century and has left its mark on
every college and university in this country.

The third idea or model is that of the land-grant college, a uniquely
American institution created by the Morrill Act, passed by Congress in 1 862.
This model emphasizes large-scale technical education and service to
agriculture and industry. It has contributed especially to education in such
fields as engineering and agriculture and has been the basis on which many
of the state universities have been built.

Oglethorpe University stands firmly in the tradition of the English college.
Established in 1835 and named after General James Edward Oglethorpe,
the founder of Georgia, the University was patterned on Corpus Christi
College, Oxford, General Oglethorpe's alma mater. It would be overstating
the matter to say that Oglethorpe University has been untouched by the
other two conceptions of higher education, but it has certainly been shaped
principally by the English tradition of collegiate education.

What are the distinctive features of that tradition? Hundreds of books
have been written on the subject, perhaps the most influential of which is
John Henry Newman's The Idea of a University, one of the great educa-
tional classics. I shall mention only five characteristics that have made this
kind of college widely admired:

1 . The colleges in the English tradition emphasize broad education for
intelligent leadership. They believe that this is a more useful undergraduate
education for the able young person than technical training for a specific job.

2. Colleges such as Oglethorpe stress the basic academic competen-
cies reading, writing, speaking, and reasoning and the fundamental
fields of knowledge the arts and sciences. Many high schools and
colleges neglect these disciplines today, but they continue to be the essen-
tial tools of the educated person.

EDUCATION IN THE ENGLISH TRADITION / 9

3. Close relationships between teacher and student are indispensable to
this type of education. A teacher is much more than a conveyor of informa-
tion (the invention of the printing press made that notion of education
obsolete). Rather, the most important function of the teacher is to stimulate
intellectual activity in the student and to promote his development as a
mature person. Factory-like instruction, conducted in huge classes, is the
very antithesis of the English tradition.

4. A collegiate education is far more than simply "taking" courses. It is a
process of development in which campus leadership opportunities, resi-
dential life, athletics, formal and informal social functions, aesthetic experi-
ences, and contact which students from other cultures, in addition to class-
room exercises, all have their proper place. Versatility and ability to lead are
important goals of undergraduate education.

5. No claim is made that this is the appropriate education for everyone.
Many young people are better fitted for technical or vocational schools.
Others have little aptitude for leadership and no interest in ideas or theoreti-
cal questions. At Oglethorpe our expehence has been that, in general, an
applicant should rank in the top third of college-bound students if he is to
succeed in a strong college of arts and sciences.

As we approach our 1 43rd year, we are proud of our English heritage and
are convinced that his is the kind of education most needed in the world
today.

(This statement was prepared by Manning M. Pattillo, Jr., President, for the
1977 Annual Report)

10 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

History

One of the South's oldest and finest educational institutions, Oglethorpe
University, was chartered on December 21 , 1 835, as a result of the efforts of
a group of Georgia Presbyterians seeking to establish a college for training
young men for the ministry. The founders named the new college after
General James Edward Oglethorpe, the distinguished leader of Georgia in
its earliest days.

The University began actual operation on January 1 , 1838, at Midway, a
small village near Milledgeville, then the state capitol, with one hundred and
twenty-five students and a faculty of six.

For nearly three decades after its founding, Oglethorpe University grew
steadily in stature and influence. Its president during most of the that time,
Samuel K. Talmage, provided gifted leadership and gathered about him a
faculty of unusual ability, at least two of whom would achieve real distinc-
tion: James Woodrow, an uncle of Woodrow Wilson and the first teacher in
Georgia to hold the Ph.D. degree, and Joseph LeConte, destined to acquire
world fame for his work in the field of geology.

Oglethorpe produced a steady stream of graduates during the early years
the most famous being the poet Sidney Lanier. A member of the class of
1860, Lanier is reported to have remarked that the greatest intellectual
impulse of his life came to him during his college days at Oglethorpe.

By the close of the 1850's, the institution had reached a new plateau of
financial solidarity and academic soundness, but its life and service were
suddenly cut short in the 1860's as Oglethorpe became a casualty of war.
Her students marched away to become Confederate soldiers; her endow-
ment at length was lost in Confederate bonds; her buildings were converted
to barracks and a hospital. Toward the end of the war General William T.
Sherman's army, during its destructive march to the sea, visited the Univer-
sity but left the property intact.

In 1 866 an effort was made to revive Oglethorpe, first at Midway and then
by relocation in Atlanta. However, the ravages of war, together with the
disruptions of Reconstruction, presented obstacles too great to overcome,
and in 1872 Oglethorpe closed its doors again.

The next chapter of Oglethorpe's history begins with the vision of Dr.
Thornwell Jacobs, who arrived in Atlanta in 1909 to serve as executive
secretary in a campaign to raise funds for Agnes Scott College. By 1 91 2, his
thinking had crystalized into a determination to re-establish Oglethorpe. Dr.
Jacobs enlisted the support of Presbyterian churches throughout the South
and East and from various individuals and groups in Atlanta. His vision
materialized in 1915 with the laying of the cornerstone of the first building

HISTORY ; 1 1

(later named Phoebe Hearst Hall) on the present campus. Oglethorpe
alumni from the classes of 1860 and 1861 were present for the historic
ceremony, thus symbolically linking the old Oglethorpe with the new.

Dr. Jacobs subsequently was named President, serving in that capacity
until 1944. During that time the University grew in size and reputation.
Throughout the 1920's the institution received substantial contributions
from individuals such as J.T. Lupton, Mrs. Robert J. Lowry, and William
Randolph Hearst, Sr. With these and other contributions several buildings
were constructed, including Lupton Hall, site of the present administration
building; Lowry Hall, the University's library; and Hearst Hall, which now
serves as a classroom facility.

Oglethorpe, under the leadership of Dr. Jacobs, was soon to be recog-
nized as one of the South's most innovative educational institutions. In
1 931 , WJTL, one of the first campus radio stations in the United States, was
established at Oglethorpe. A few years later, Dr. Jacobs began his work on
"The Crypt of Civilization," located in a vault in Phoebe Hearst Hall. This is a
collection of 800 books and other objects representative of 20th Century
America, which is to remain sealed until the year 8113, when it will be
opened for the benefit of historians. The project was reported nationally and
internationally and was supported from its inception by the Scientific Ameri-
can. General David Sarnoff, founder and Chairman of the Board of the
Radio Corporation of America (R.C.A.) spoke at the ceremony at which the
Crypt was closed in 1940.

Several other interesting projects began during the Jacobs administra-
tion, including an unsuccessful attempt to relocate the remains of General
James Oglethorpe from England to the Oglethorpe campus. In the late
1 930's, the "Exceptional Education Experiment" was instituted with the aim
of adding depth and meaning to the educational process for a group of
carefully selected students.

A new chapter opened in the history of Oglethorpe in 1 944 when Dr. Philip
Weltner assumed the presidency and, with a group of faculty associates,
including Dr. Gerhart Niemeyer, Dr. George Seward, and Professor Wen-
dell Brown, initiated a new and exciting approach to undergraduate educa-
tion called the "Oglethorpe Idea." This concept was based on the conviction
that education should encompass the twin aims of making a life and making
a living, and toward these ends a program of studies should be developed.
The essential curricular principles adopted at that time have continued to
provide the framework of an Oglethorpe education for the past thrity years.

The University continued to make steady progress during the presiden-
cies of J. Whitney Bunting, Donald Wilson, Donald C. Agnew, and Paul R.
Beall. Throughout his period strong teachers were appointed, the academic
program was further developed, and there was a gradual expansion of the

12 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

size of the student body. Special mention should also be made of George
Seward, who contributed importantly to the educational development of the
University, as a long-time dean and an acting president.

The presidency changed hands once again in 1967 when Dr. Paul
Kenneth Vonk assumed office. Keeping pace with the growing demands of
increased enrollment, Dr. Vonk initiated a program of physical expansion
unparalleled in the University's long history. During his administration the
following buildings were completed: five men's dormitories Jacobs,
Weltner, Alumni, Oglethorpe, and Trustees; a beautiful university center; a
women's dormitory, Traer Hall; and a science center, Gosiin Hall. In addi-
tion, all of the older buildings were extensively remodeled, giving
Oglethorpe an attractive campus and an excellent physical plant.

Manning M. Pattillo, Jr. was inaugurated in 1975 as Oglethorpe's twelfth
president. During his administration special emphasis has been placed on
liberal education as a rigorous intellectual experience and as preparation
for leadership. The expansion of Oglethorpe's program of continuing edu-
cation, the attraction of students from abroad, and the acceleration of finan-
cial development are other areas that have received particular attention.

Oglethorpe University has had a long and exciting history and has pro-
duced more than its share of distinguished graduates in business, public
affairs, education, medicine, religion, law, and other fields. It looks forward
to an increasingly important role as one of the better private colleges in its
region.

The complete history of Oglethorpe University cannot be told for it is as
varied as each of her students. The future depends on her students today,
as it has for generations. She will develop as her students develop; she will
grow and prosper only if they are sufficiently prepared to meet the challenge
of the future.

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS/ 13

Buildings And Grounds

LOWRY HALL LIBRARY

Lowry Hall provides a functional and attractive library for the University.
One of its outstanding features is the variety of study areas, which are
comfortably furnished in a pleasant, quiet atmosphere. It has a large
reading-reference room on the first floor, and also an outdoor reading patio
on the same level at the north end of the building. Individual student
conference rooms are available, as well as individual carrels in the book
stack areas. The Library of Congress classification system is used in an
open stack arrangement, allowing free access to users on all four floors.
Provisions are made for a variety of microform materials.

The collection of over 160,000 items includes books, periodicals, micro-
forms, and audiovisual materials. More than 300 periodical subscriptions
provide a diversified range of current information. The R.L. Dempsey Spe-
cial Collections room includes materials on James Edward Oglethorpe and
Georgia, Sidney Lanier (an Oglethorpe alumnus), and other collections of
autographed books and unique volumes. The library has the only known
contemporary oil portrait of General Oglethorpe in existence.

The Sears Collection of Children's Literature contains over 2,000 vol-
umes of children's books, which help support the graduate program of
elementary education. The library also subscribes to the ERIC (Educational
Resources Information Center) microfiche publications. The Japanese Col-
lection consists of books in the English language and other materials on
Japanese history and culture.

A browsing area contains a special collection of current books which have
general appeal. It also provides access to all new acquisitions before they
are dispersed into the classified subject sections.

The Oglethorpe Art Gallery, which has several exhibits each year that are
open to the public, is located in the library.

The library is open seven days a week during the two regular semesters
of the academic year. On five days it is open both day and evening.

THE UNIVERSITY CENTER

The University Center is the hub of campus life. It houses the student
lounges, television room, recreational facilities, snackbar, post office, book
store, student activity offices, conference rooms, cafeteria and dining room,
and offices of the Director of Student Development.

14 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

LUPTON HALL

Lupton Hall, built in 1920 and named in honor of John Thomas Lupton,
was one of the three original buildings on the present Oglethorpe University
campus. It was renovated in 1973, and contains all administrative offices
and an auditorium with seating for three hundred and fifty persons. The
University Business Office is located on the lower level of Lupton Hall; the
office of the Dean, the Registrar, and the Admissions Office are on the first
floor; the Office of the President, Dean of Administration, Dean of Students,
Office of Counseling Services and Career Development, Office of Develop-
ment, Alumni Office, and Financial Aid Office are on the second floor. The
third floor is the site of the E.L.S. Language Center, which was opened in
September, 1 975. Classrooms, offices, and a lounge occupy the third floor
area. The language laboratory and the reading laboratory are located on the
second floor.

The original cast bell carillon in the Lupton tower has been re-fitted and
re-hung. It now has forty-two bells which chime the quarter hours and a daily
afternoon concert.

PHOEBE HEARST HALL

Phoebe Hearst Hall was built in 1 91 5 and is in the neo-Gothic architecture
that dominates the Oglethorpe Campus. The building is named in honor of
Phoebe Apperson Hearst, the mother of William Randolph Hearst, Sr.

It was renovated in the fall of 1972 for a classroom and faculty office
building. Most classes with the exception of science and mathematics are
held in this building which is located directly across from Lupton Hall.
Additional renovation for a student-faculty lounge and an expanded com-
puter center was completed in 1977.

The dominant feature of the building is the beautiful Great Hall, the site of
many traditional and historic events at Oglethorpe. Also located in the
ground floor of the building is the much-publicized Crypt of Civilization. This
time capsule was sealed on May 28, 1940, with many components of
American culture sealed within. It is not to be opened until May 28, 81 13.

GOSLIN HALL

This science center was completed during the fall of 1 971 and houses the
science and psychology departments. Laboratories for biology, chemistry
and physics, and modern lecture halls, are located in the building. Goslin
Hall was named in honor of Dr. Roy N. Goslin, Professor of Physics and
senior member of the Oglethorpe faculty, for his many years of dedicated
work for the college and for the nation.

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS / 15

TRAER HALL

Built in 1 969, Traer Hall is a three story women's residence which houses
168 students. Construction of the building was made possible through the
generosity of the late Wayne S. Traer, Oglethorpe University alumnus of the
Class of 1928. These accommodations provide for semi-private rooms. All
rooms open onto a central plaza courtyard. As all buildings on the
Oglethorpe campus, Traer Hall is completely air-conditioned.

GOODMAN HALL

Goodman Hall was built in 1956 and renovated in 1970, when it was
transformed from a men's into a women's residence hall. The building
contains twenty-seven rooms and is used to house some Junior and Senior
women students. Private rooms are available. Located adjacent to Good-
man Hall are three newly resurfaced tennis courts (1977).

MEN'S RESIDENCE HALL COMPLEX

Five men's residence halls are situated around the upper quadrangle.
Two of the buildings were named for former Oglethorpe presidents, Dr.
Philip Weltner and Dr. Thornwell Jacobs. Constructed in 1 968, these build-
ings were refurbished and carpeted in 1977. The three story structures
house all male resident students.

FAITH HALL

The Student Health Center is housed on the upper level of Faith Hall,
together with art studios and lecture rooms. The lower level of Faith Hall
houses the maintenance facility. The building was renovated in 1972 to
include overnight facilities for students in the health center.

R.E. DOROUGH FIELD HOUSE

The Dorough Field House is the site of intercollegiate basketball, intra-
mural and recreational sports, and large campus gatherings such as con-
certs and commencement exercises. Built in 1960, this structure is sched-
uled for major renovation in 1978. The building is named for the late R.E.
(Red) Dorough, a former Trustee of the University.

16 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

ATHLETIC FACILITIES

The most recent additions to the campus are a six-lane, all-weather,
reslite track which was dedicated in May, 1975, and a new intramural field
which was opened in 1976. These improvements provide modern facilities
for the soccer and track teams. The intramural football and Softball teams
use these new facilities as well.

ADMISSIONS/ 17

Admissions

APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION

Throughout its history, Oglethorpe has welcomed students from all sec-
tions of this country, as well as from abroad, as candidates for degrees. It is
the policy of the Admissions Committee to select for admission to the
University those applicants who present the strongest evidence of purpose,
maturity, scholastic ability, and potential for the caliber of college work
expected at Oglethorpe. In making its judgments, the Committee considers
the nature of the students' high school program, their grades, the recom-
mendations of their counselors and teachers, and their scores on aptitude
tests. In recent years, the Admissions Committee has become increasingly
selective in reviewing the credentials of the candidates. Admission is of-
fered to approximately 66 per cent of the applicants.

The candidates for admission as freshmen must present a satisfactory
high school program. In addition, the student must submit satisfactory
scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) of the College Entrance
Examination Board, or American College Testing Program Assessment
(ACT).

It is to the applicant's advantage to take the American College Test or
Scholastic Aptitude Test as early as possible during the senior year in high
school. Details concerning the program can be obtained from high school
counselors, or by writing the American College Testing Program, P.O. Box
451, Iowa City, Iowa 52240, or College Entrance Examination Board, Box
592, Princeton, N.J. 08540.

The Oglethorpe application form contains a list of the materials which
must be submitted by the applicant. No application can be considered and
acted upon until the items indicated have been received. Applications will
be considered in order of completion, and the applicant will be notified of the
decision of the Committee on Admissions as soon as action has been
taken.

Though the exact date will vary from semester to semester, generally the
deadline by which admissions will be closed will be announced by the
University.

CREDIT BY EXAMINATION

There are two testing programs through which students may earn credit
or exemption for required or elective courses. These two programs are
described below. Any student who has questions about these examinations
should consult the Registrar. Up to sixty semester hours of credit will be
accepted through these programs.

18 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM CLEP

Within this testing program are two categories. The General Exarriina-
tions cover the areas of English Composition, Humanities, Mathematics,
Natural Science, and Social Science History. A maximum of thirty se-
mester hours may be earned with acceptable scores in the General Exami-
nations. Minimum acceptable scores are 500 for each general area and 50
in each sub-total category. The Subject Examinations are designed to
measure knowledge in particular courses. A minimum acceptable score of
50 in a subject examination is required for credit.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM

The University invites and urges those students who have taken the
advanced placement examinations of the College Entrance Examination
Board to submit their scores for possible consideration toward college
credit. The general policy of Oglethorpe toward such scores is the following:
academic credit will be given in the appropriate area to students presenting
advanced placement grades of 4 or 5; exemption but not credit will be given
in the appropriate area from basic courses for students presenting a grade
of 3; neither credit nor exemption will be given for a grade of 2; maximum
credit to be allowed to any student for advanced placement tests will be
thirty semester hours.

TRANSFER STUDENTS

Applicants for transfer from other recognized institutions of higher learn-
ing are welcome at Oglethorpe, provided they are in good standing at the
institution last attended. They are expected to follow regular admissions
procedures and will be notified of the decision of the Admissions Committee
in the regular way.

Oglethorpe University will accept as transfer credit courses comparable
to university courses which are applicable to a liberal arts or a science
degree. A two year residence requirement is in effect, but may be reduced
to one year by joint decision of the dean and the chairman of the division in
which the student will major. Therefore, two years of transfer work is the
maximum given without such decision, but up to three years of transfer work
may be granted with such decision. Acceptable work must be shown on an
official transcript and must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.

Transfer students who have earned the Associate of Arts degree at an
accredited junior college will be awarded two years of credit. The remaining
two years of academic credit will be determined by the Dean of the College
in consultation with the Registrar, the appropriate department chairman,

ADMISSIONS/ 19

and the student. Junior college graduates with strong academic records are
encouraged to apply for admission. All financial aid awards and scholar-
ships are open to transfer students as well as new freshmen.

Oglethorpe University will accept as many as thirty hours of United States
Armed Forces Institute (USAFI) credit. Students with at least six months
active military experience may be granted three hours credit for that experi-
ence. Students who serve for two years or more, may receive six hours
credit.

SPECIAL AND TRANSIENT STUDENTS

In addition to regular students, a limited number of special and transient
students will be accepted.

Special students are defined by the University as those not working
toward an Oglethorpe degree; they are limited to a maximum of five semes-
ter courses, after which they must apply to the admissions office for a
change of status to that of regular student or be requested to withdraw from
the University.

Transient students may take a maximum of two semesters of work,
provided that they secure permission from the dean of their original institu-
tion certifying that the institution will accept for transfer credit the academic
work done by the student at Oglethorpe. This permission is the responsibil-
ity of the transient student.

NON-TRADITIONAL STUDENTS

Admission to Oglethorpe is not restricted to recent high school graduates
and transfer students. The University attempts to fulfill its responsibility to
the entire community by offering admission to non-traditional students.
Students with a high school diploma, or its equivalent, who have not been
enrolled during the last five years are exempt from taking the traditional
entrance examinations. Also, those persons who have never completed
their undergraduate degrees and wish to resume their study after an ex-
tended absence are encouraged to apply.

Admission is offered in the fall, spring, and summer terms. Interviews are
required to determine the special needs of these students. Personal coun-
seling is available to avoid unnecessary difficulties and to promote the
development of the students. These students have individual plans accord-
ing to their special needs and interests.

Two special programs are offered for adults who desire to reenter the
academic environment. One is a Study Skills Workshop which includes the
following topics: motivation for study, concentration and memory, time
management, reading improvement, note-taking, and test-taking. The

20 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

Other program is a seminar that covers topics like financial planning, per-
sonal readjustment, child care, values clarification, goal setting, and per-
sonal affirmation.

The University is able to offer admission to non-traditional students by
recognizing their strengths in enthusiasm, motivation, and maturity.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Admission to Oglethorpe is open to qualified students from all nations.
Students who are able to provide evidence of suitable academic back-
ground, adequate financial resources, and seriousness of purpose are
eligible to apply.

Many international students are accepted with the condition that upon
arrival they will be given an examination in English. Students must gain the
recommendation of the language center director through such examination
before enrolling in regular courses. Students who do not receive a favorable
recommendation from the Director will be required to enroll in the ELS
Language Center.

Students who take the TOEFL and present scores of 500 or better are
exempt from taking language center courses. These students are allowed
to enroll in the regular university curriculum.

ELS LANGUAGE CENTER

In September of 1 975, English Language Services (ELS) and Oglethorpe
University opened an on-campus English language center. The ELS Lan-
guage Center offers intensive four-week sessions teaching English as a
second language to college-bound international students and profes-
sionals. Students enroll in one or more sessions depending upon knowl-
edge of English, aptitude for the language, and desire for proficiency.
Residence hall facilities are available to all ELS students.

Additional information may be obtained by writing Director, ELS Lan-
guage Center, Oglethorpe University, 4484 Peachtree, Atlanta, Georgia

MARINE OFFICER PROGRAM

Qualified students may apply for an officer program leading to a commis-
sion as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps. Commis-
sions are offered in both ground and aviation components. The Platoon
Leaders Course (PLC) is offered to freshmen, sophomores, and juniors
who attend pre-commissioning training during the summer. Financial Assis-
tance and Flight Indoctrination Programs are available. Qualified seniors

Financial Assistance

PROGRAMS

Oglethorpe University provides students with an opportunity to obtain
financial assistance for part of their educational expenses. The Financial
Aid Form (FAF) is the common form by which students may apply for all
campus based programs (National Direct Student Loans, Supplemental
Educational Opportunity Grants, College Work-Study) and at the same
time, apply for the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant. In completing the
Financial Aid Form, the student will receive his Student Eligibility Report for
the Basic Grant Program. When the report is received, it should be for-
warded to the Director of Financial Aid. Students may receive several types
of aid to make up their "package" of financial assistance.

A financial aid package may include assistance from any one or more of
the following sources:

Oglethorpe Merit Awards for Scholarship (O.M.A.S.) are awarded in
amounts from $500 to $1 500. For freshmen, these awards are based on the
applicant's aptitude test scores (SAT or ACT). For upperclassmen and
transfer students, these awards are based on the cumulative grade point
average of the applicant. Participation in activities, leadership, citizenship,
and potential for success are also part of the basis for awarding these
scholarships. The O.M.A.S. is unique in that scholarships are awarded on
the basis of merit rather than need and are made available to a great many
more students than traditional scholarship programs.

Georgia Tuition Grant (G.T.G.) is available for Georgia residents who
attend Oglethorpe. The program was established by an Act of the 1971
Georgia General Assembly. The Georgia Higher Education Assistance
Authority defines the program in this way, "The purpose of the Act is to
provide tuition assistance to Georgia resident students who are desirous of
pursuing their higher education goals in a private Georgia college or univer-
sity, but find the financial costs prohibitive due primarily to higher tuition of
these educational institutions in comparison to public schools which are
branches of the University System of Georgia." All students must complete
a yearly application to verify their eligibility for the grant. In the 1978-79
school year, this grant is $300.00 per semester. No Financial Aid Form is
required for this program since family financial need is not a factor in
determining eligibility.

Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (B.E.O.G.) is a federal aid pro-
gram intended to be the floor in financial assistance. Eligibility is based upon
a family's financial resources. Applications for this program may be ob-
tained from the Office of Financial Aid or from a high school guidance office.
This aid is administered in the form of non-repayable grants.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE / 23

Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (S.E.O.G.) do not re-
quire repayment. The size of the grant depends on the need of the individual
recipient. To qualify for an S.E.O.G., a student must be from a family with
"exceptional financial need," must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment,
and must be capable of maintaining normal progress toward the achieve-
ment of a degree. Application for these funds is made by filing a Financial
Aid Form.

National Direct Student Loans (N.D.S.L.), previously called National
Defense Student Loans, are long-term, low cost educational loans to stu-
dents who have demonstrated need for such assistance. No interest is
charged and repayment is deferred while the borrower continues as a
half-time student. Interest is charged at a three per cent annual rate begin-
ning nine months after the borrower's education is terminated. These loans
are available to students who show a demonstrated financial need through
the Financial Aid Form. Students electing to serve in the Peace Corps,
Vista, or in the Armed Forces of the United States may be exempt from
interest charges and repayment for three years. Cancellation benefits may
be received by teaching in "poverty" areas that are designated by the U.S.
Commissioner of Education, for teaching handicapped children, and for
teaching in Head Start programs.

College Work-Study Program (C.W.S.P.) permits students to earn part
of the educational expenses. The earnings from this program and other
financial aid cannot exceed the student's financial need. Students eligible
for this program work part-time on the Oglethorpe campus.

Georgia Higher Education Assistance Authority (G.H.E.A.A.) loans
and Federally Insured Student Loans (F.I.S.L.) are long term loans
available through banks, credit unions, and other lending institutions. Stu-
dents desiring to seek a loan in this manner should consult with the Director
of Financial Aid for additional information.

Georgia Incentive Scholarship (G.I.S.), as defined by the Georgia
Higher Education Assistance Authority, is a "program created by an act of
the 1974 Georgia General Assembly in order to establish a program of
needs-based scholarships for qualified Georgia residents to enable them to
attend eligible post-secondary institutions of their choice within the state.
The scholarship awards are designed to provide only a portion of the
student's resources in financing the total cost of post-secondary education.

The Pickett and Hatcher Educational Fund was created by the late
Claud Adkins Hatcher of Columbus, Georgia, founder of the internationally
known Royal Crown Cola Company and its predecessors, of which he
served as president for more than twenty-five years.

In his will, Mr. Hatcher created a trust and stated that the Trustees would
receive the monies and assets bequeathed to be used as an educational
loan fund.

24 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

The Trustees of this loan fund serve in a fiduciary capacity only. The
money actually belongs to deserving young people of the present and future
who want a college education. These young people are beneficiahes who
receive not only opportunities for a college education, but a trust to use
those funds for educational expenses and then return them for the benefit of
others.

An informational brochure on this program may be obtained by writing to
the Office of Financial Aid.

Ty Cobb Educational Foundation Scholarship Program. Only stu-
dents who are residents of Georgia and who have completed at least one
year of "B" quality or higher work in an accredited college are eligible to
apply for Cobb Scholarships. No applications from undergraduate students
who are married will be considered. The Faculty Scholarship Committee
makes recommendations for these scholarships each year.

Additional information may be secured from the Director of Financial Aid.

Payment Plans
The University recommends two companies which offer tuition payment
plans. Because fees are due at registration, families may want to consider
these payment plans so as to spread their payments throughout the course
of the year. Brochures describing these programs may be secured from the
Office of Financial Aid. The two companies are The Tuition Plan of Concord,
New Hampshire and the Knight Tuition Payment Plans of Boston, Massa-
chusetts.

2. Be enrolled on at least half-time basis (6 hours) in a regular degree-
seeking program.

1.0 cumulative grade point average; sophomores a 1.4 grade point
average; juniors a 1.5 grade point average and seniors a 1.6 grade
point average, in order to be considered making satisfactory progress.
The total number of hours attempted will be used to determine eligibil-

cial aid again.

4. Students may not be in default on a student loan at Oglethorpe.

5. Establish financial need by filing a Financial Aid Form.

order who by direction of his/her community, society, or order is
pursuing a course of study at Oglethorpe, and who receives support
and maintenance from his community, society, or order.

8. For purposes of the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant
program, a student will be considered in exceptional financial need if
their expected family or parental contribution does not exceed fifty
percent of the cost of education as established in the Financial Aid
Form.

PAYMENT OF AWARDS

All awards, except College Work-Study earnings, are disbursed to stu-
dents by means of a voucher. Each semester, vouchers are prepared for all
awards and are credited to a student's account after the Director of Finan-
cial Aid has approved the awards. Each student must acknowledge receipt
of their awards prior to their being credited to a student's account.

PROCEDURE

The application procedure for the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant,
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, National Direct Student
Loan, and College Work-Study Program is as follows:

1 . Apply and be admitted as a regular student.

2. File a Financial Aid Form (FAF) no later than May 1st, indicating that
Oglethorpe University should receive a copy.

3. Upon receipt of eligibility report forthe Basic Grant Program, send it to

Office of Financial Aid. Students applying forthe Oglethorpe Merit Award for

26 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

scholarship should request an application from the Office of Financial Aid.
The application procedure for all other assistance programs may be deter-
mined by contacting the Office of Financial Aid.

RENEWAL OF AWARDS

Renewal applications for all programs are available from the Office of
Financial Aid. Students must meet the eligibility requirements indicated
above and file the appropriate applications for each program. Deadline for
receipt of a complete financial aid file is May 1. Applicants whose files
become complete after this time will be considered based upon availability
of funds.

Applications for renewal of Georgia Tuition Grants must be filed no later
than the last day to register for each semester.

Renewal of Oglethorpe Merit Award for Scholarships is based upon the
applicant's accumulated grade point average and participation in extracur-
ricular activities. Usually a renewal applicant must have at least a 3.0
cumulative grade point average for a merit scholarship and must have
earned thirty hours during the preceding academic year.

In order for a student to receive financial aid from one semester to
another, it is necessary for the student to be in "good academic standing"
and "making satisfactory progress." For freshmen a 1 .0 cumulative grade
point average will be necessary to continue receiving assistance, while
sophomores must have a 1 .4, juniors 1 .5 and seniors 1 .6. The total number
of hours attempted will be used in the classification of eligible applicants. All
financial aid recipients will be expected to enroll and complete a minimum of
twelve hours per semester. Failure to obtain twenty-four hours during an
academic year may result in a reduction of aid for the next academic year.

ment. Students need not apply for these awards as all merit scholarship

Leadership Awards are available to students with superior academic
ability and special talents in important fields of extracurricular activity. The
program will include such activities as debating and public speaking; publi-
cations, both journalistic and literary; elective office, including student gov-
ernment; choral performance; and social service. A fundamental aim of
Oglethorpe University is to prepare students for leadership roles in society.
One way of promoting this purpose is to give special recognition to students
who demonstrate leadership capabilities as undergraduates. Scholarships
in amounts up to full tuition are awarded to superior students with good
character and leadership capability who can contribute significantly to one
of the fields of extra-curricular activity. The individual amounts of these
awards vary. It is the intent of this program to provide the difference
between the amount of other assistance, if any, and the annual cost of
tuition.

The R.E. Dorough Scholarships are awarded to students of superior
academic ability who possess special talents in athletics. Scholarships in
amounts up to full tuition are awarded to students with good character and
leadership capability who can contribute significantly in one of the fields of
intercollegiate athletics. The individual amounts of these awards vary. It is
the intent of this program to provide the difference between the amount of
other assistance, if any, and the cost of tuition.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE / 29

The Thornwell Jacobs Scholarships are highest awards available to
students who have exceptional academic ability and athletic talent. The
concept is somewhat like that of the Rhodes Scholarships. This program,
providing stipends up to the total amount of room, board, and tuition, is
designed to encourage excellence in intercollegiate athletics and prepara-
tion for leadership. It is the intent of the program to provide the difference
between the amount of other assistance, if any, and the cost of room, board,
and tuition.

The James Edward Oglethorpe Scholarships are the most generous
leadership awards offered by the University. These are reserved for stu-
dents with exceptional academic ability and leadership talent. This program
provides stipends up to the full amount of room, board, and tuition. The
program will include such activities as debating and public speaking; publi-
cations, both journalistic and literary; elective office, including student gov-
ernment; choral performance; and social service. A basic purpose of
Oglethorpe is to prepare students for leadership roles. One way of promot-
ing this purpose is to give special recognition and encouragement to stu-
dents who demonstrate leadership capabilities as undergraduates. The
individual amounts of these awards vary. It is the intent of the program to
provide the difference between the amount of other assistance, if any, and
the cost of room, board, and tuition.

Recipients of funds from these four programs will be expected to maintain
specified levels of academic achievement and to continue to make signifi-
cant contributions to their respective activities. Each award is for one year,
but can be renewed on the basis of an annual evaluation of academic and
other performance.

Finances

FEES AND COSTS

The tuition charged by Oglethorpe University represents only seventy
percent of the actual expense of educating each student, the balance
coming from endowment income, gifts, and other sources. Thus, every
Oglethorpe undergraduate is the beneficiary of a hidden scholarship. At the
same time, 68 percent of the students are awarded additional financial
assistance in the form of scholarships, grants, and loans from private,
governmental, or institutional sources.

The tuition is $1 ,380 per semester. Room and board is $730 per semes-
ter. Students who desire single rooms are assessed an additional $1 50 per
semester in all residence halls except Traer Hall. In Traer Hall, the single
room charge is an additional $175 per semester.

The tuition of $1 ,380 is applicable to all students taking 12-16 semester
hours. These are classified as full time students. Students taking less than
12 hours are referred to the section on Part-Time Fees on page 31. Stu-
dents taking more than 1 6 hours during a semester are charged $60.00 for
each additional hour. Tuition and fees for the fall term are due on August 1 5,
1 979. Tuition and fees for the Spring term are due on December 31,1 979.
Failure to make the necessary payments will result in the cancellation of the
student's registration. Students receiving financial aid are required to pay
the difference between the amount of their aid and the amount due by the
above deadlines. Students and parents desiring to pay expenses in install-
ments are advised to investigate their lending institutions or other sources
such as Tuition Plan, Inc. Information about such plans is listed in the
section on financial assistance. New students who require on-campus
housing for the fall term are required to submit an advance deposit of $200.
New commuting students are required to submit an advance deposit of
$1 00. Such deposits are not refundable. However, one half of the deposit is
credited to the student's account for the fall term. The other half is credited
to the account for the spring term.

Upon payment of the room and board fees, each student is covered by a
basic Health and Accident policy. Full-time students residing off campus
may purchase this insurance for $40.00 per year. In addition, any student
covered by the basic policy may purchase the Major Medical Plan for
$10.50 a year. International students, students participating in any intercol-
legiate sport, and students participating in intramural football or basketball
are required to have this major medical coverage or its equivalent.

In addition to the tuition and room and board charges, students may be
required to subscribe to the following:

1. DAMAGE DEPOSIT: A $100.00 damage deposit is required of all
boarding students. The damage deposit is refundable at the end of the

FINANCES/ 31

academic year after any charge for damages is deducted. Room keys
and other college property must be returned and the required check-
out procedure completed prior to issuance of damage deposit re-
funds. This deposit is payable at fall registration. Students who begin
in the spring term are also assessed the $100 damage deposit.
2. GRADUATING SENIOR: Diploma fee of $15.00.

These schedules do not include the extra cost of single rooms, books
(approximately $200 per year), or travel and personal expenses. All fees
are subject to change.

PART-TIME FEES

Students enrolled part-time in day classes during the Fall or Spring
semesters will be charged $100 per semester hour. This rate is applicable
to those students taking eleven semester hours or less. Students taking
twelve to sixteen hours are classified full time.

EVENING SCHOOL FEES

Students who are enrolled as evening school students will be charged
$1 70 per three semester hour course. To qualify for this special tuition rate
during the Fall and Spring semesters, a student must take all courses in the
evening. All four-hour lab courses include an additional $15.00 laboratory
fee.

32 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

SUMMER SCHOOL FEES

All students enrolled in Summer School will be assessed $1 70 per three
semester hour course. The rate for four-hour lab courses is $226 plus a
$15.00 laboratory fee.

Students desiring residence hall and food service accommodations are
charged $200.00 per five week session for a double room; $235.00 per five
week session for a single room. These fees are for both room and board.

WITHDRAWAL, DROP/ADD

Students who find it necessary to drop courses or add courses must
secure a drop/add form in the Registrar's Office. The form is the only means
by which students may change their enrollment. A drop/add form must be
completed in the Registrar's Office during drop/add week. After the seventh
day of classes, the professor must approve the change in schedule. The
professor may issue one of the following grades: withdraw passing (G),
withdraw failing (H), or may refuse to approve a drop. In order to receive a
refund, the student must officially drop the class by the end of the twentieth
day.

Students should note that any change of academic schedule must be
cleared by the Registrar's Office. The date the change is received in the
Registrar's Office will be the official date for the change.

If a student misses six consecutive classes in any course, the instructor
will notify the Registrar's Office and it will be assumed that the student has
unofficially withdrawn from the course. This does not eliminate the respon-
sibility stated above concerning the official withdrawal policy. The student
may receive the grade of withdrawal passing (G), withdrawal failing (H), or
failure due to excessive absences (E). This policy has direct implications for
students receiving benefits from the Veterans Administration and other
federal agencies as these agencies must be notified when a student misses
six consecutive classes. This will result in an automatic decrease in pay-
ments to the student. Reinstatement in a course is at the discretion of the
instructor.

If a student is in need of withdrawing from school, an official withdrawal
form must be obtained from the Registrar. The Dean of the College and the
Director of Financial Aid must sign the withdrawal form. The date the
completed withdrawal form is submitted to the Registrar will be the official
date for withdrawal.

FINANCES / 33

REFUNDS

The establishment of a refund policy is based on the University's commit-
ment to a fair and equitable refund of tuition and other charges assessed.
While the University advances this policy, it should not be interpreted as a
policy of convenience for students to take lightly their responsibility and their
commitment to the University. The University has demonstrated a commit-
ment by admitting and providing the necessary programs for all students
and feels the students must also demonstrate a commitment in their aca-
demic program.

Since insurance coverage begins on the payment date and the fee is not
retained by the University, it will not be refunded after registration day. A
$1 00 fee will be retained by Oglethorpe as a processing fee when a student
withdraws; all other fees except the advance deposit (i.e., tuition, room and
board) are subject to the refund schedule.

The date which will be used for calculation of a refund for withdrawal or
drop/add will be the date on which the Registrar receives the official form
signed by all required personnel. All students must follow the procedures for
withdrawal and drop/add in order to receive a refund. Students are re-
minded that all changes in their academic program must be cleared through
the Registrar; an arrangement with a professor will not be recognized as an
official change of schedule.

All tuition refund requests will be processed at the conclusion of the fourth
week of classes. Payment will take a minimum of two weeks, but will be no
longer than forty days.

STUDENT LIFE / 35

Student Life

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Oglethorpe University seeks to prepare its students for roles of leader-
ship in society. Many colleges mention this as one of their goals. At most
institutions, this is simply a part of the rhetoric of higher education. However,
at Oglethorpe, specific educational experiences are planned to help the
student acquire the arts of leadership.

Education for leadership must be based on the essential academic
competencies reading, writing, speaking, and reasoning. Though widely
neglected today at all levels of education, these are the prerequisites for
effective leadership. They are the marks of an educated person. Oglethorpe
insists that its students achieve advanced proficiency in these skills. In
addition, students are offered specific preparation in the arts of leadership.
Such arts include an appreciation of constructive values, the setting of
goals, public speaking, human relations, and organizational skills.

This philosophy presents an excellent opportunity for the able young
person who is striving for a significant life, including leadership in the
improvement of our community and our society.

ORIENTATION-FRESHMAN SEMINAR

Oglethorpe University wishes to provide for each student the opportunity
of adequate adjustment to college life. Because we take pride in our ability
and our tradition to offer students warm personal relationships, we have
organized our orientation program to provide these relationships, as well as
much needed information about the University.

Our program has been developed to serve the needs of students through
small group experiences. Faculty, staff, and upperclass students comprise
a team which leads the group process. Information is disseminated which
acquaints the student with the academic program and the extra-curricular
life of the campus community. Thorough understanding of the advising
system, the registration process, library use, class offerings, and study
demands is sought. Alternatives for self expression outside the classroom
are also presented to the new student.

To supplement the student's expenence, a Freshman Seminar is held
weekly duhng the first semester. Topics discussed during these sessions
will meet the needs of the developing student and will help the student
assimilate the college experiences. The freshmen students, having com-
pleted the orientation program and the series of seminars, will be better
prepared to understand and appreciate their educational development.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY

Oglethorpe University takes the position that it is deeply concerned with
the total development of the individual as a competent student and as a
highly responsible citizen both on the campus and in the community. The
University's high standards of personal conduct and responsibility are an
expression of its confidence in each student's potential as a human being;
however, the students must be as willing to accept adult consequences as
they are insistent upon being granted adult freedom of decision and action.

Unfortunately, neither knowledge and wisdom nor knowledge and integ-
rity are synonymous; therefore, a firm grasp of academic studies will not in
itself be an assurance that a student is profiting fully from the college
experience.

Individuals who do not desire to accept either this view of the University's
responsibility, or live by its regulations, should not apply to the University for
admission. Accepted students who demonstrate their unwillingness to meet
standards will be terminated from the University.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT

Undergraduate life at Oglethorpe is, in a large sense, one of a democratic
community; student government is mainly self-government. The Oglethorpe
University Student Association, consisting of the President, Vice-President,
Secretary, Treasurer, and Parliamentarian of O.S.A. and the Presidents of
the four classes, is the guiding and governing organization of student life at
the University. Meetings are held regularly and notice posted. All students
are urged to attend. Additional information may be obtained from O.S.A. ,
Box 458, 3000 Woodrow Way, Atlanta, Georgia 30319.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

Valuable educational experiences may be gained through active partici-
pation in approved campus activities and organizations. All students are
encouraged to participate in one or more organizations and to the extent
that such involvement does not deter them from high academic achieve-
ment. Students are especially encouraged to join professional organiza-
tions associated with their interests and goals. The value of a student's
participation is a major consideration in determining scholarships.

FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES

University social fraternities were re-instituted at Oglethorpe in 1967;
sororities followed in 1968. At present three fraternities and two sororities
contribute to the Greek system at Oglethorpe.

The three fraternities are Chi Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and Kappa
Alpha. The national sorority is Chi Omega. The local sorority is Gamma
Delta Epsilon.

These social organizations contribute substantially to the spiritual and
social betterment of the individual and develop college into a richer, fuller
experience. Membership in these organizations is voluntary and subject to

38 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

regulations imposed by the groups, the University Interfraternity Council,
the Panhellenic Council, or by the Student Government Association.

ATHLETIC POLICY

At Oglethorpe University the students who participate in intercollegiate
competition are considered to be, first, students, and second, athletes. All
students engaged in athletics must satisfy the same academic require-
ments as other students. There are no scholarships which are based solely
on the athletic ability of the student. However, Oglethorpe sponsors a
program of Merit Awards which are described in another section of this
bulletin. Most students participating in intercollegiate athletics have won
Merit Awards in amounts ranging from $500 to $4,220 per year.

ATHLETICS

Oglethorpe University competes in the following intercollegiate competi-
tion: basketball, track, cross country, soccer, and tennis.

In addition to the intercollegiate competition, a well rounded program of
intramural sports is offered and has strong participation by the student
body. Men participate in football, volleyball, basketball, and softball.
Women participate in volleyball, tennis, bowling, and softball.

INTERNSHIPS

There is increasing interest on the campus in practical experience which
complements the traditional academic program. Oglethorpe offers field
experience assignments to prepare the student who seeks employment
immediately upon graduation. This experience is designed to bridge theory
and practice by involving the student in a field related to his major program.

COUNSELING

The Counseling Service at Oglethorpe provides confidential professional
assistance to students experiencing personal problems of a psychological,
social, or circumstantial nature. Though academic advising is the responsi-
bility of individually-assigned faculty advisors, students encountering un-
usual academic difficulties may wish to consult a counselor regarding
possible contributing factors. Assistance in developing effective study skills
is also available both in special workshops and, if needed, in individual
conferences. Psychological tests are sometimes utilized in conjunction with
the counseling process when circumstances indicate that these would be

STUDENT LIFE / 39

helpful. There is no fee to Oglethorpe students for any of the counseling
services provided.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Students needing guidance in selecting a career or assistance in obtain-
ing appropriate job placement can receive help from the Office of Career
Development. An extensive career development library is maintained con-
taining information on a wide variety of career opportunities. Vocational
interest inventories are also available and are frequently used as a part of a
highly individualized process of career counseling.

Oglethorpe University is a member of the College Placement Council and
maintains contact with numerous local and national businesses, industries,
and social service agencies for the purpose of arranging employment
interviews for seniors. Information on full-time, part-time, and summer
employment opportunities is updated constantly and made available to all
students and alumni. In addition, a central placement file is maintained on
all students and alumni who complete the necessary forms and provide
references of appraisal. Upon written request this placement file will be sent
to any prospective employer or graduate school indicated.

OPPORTUNITIES IN ATLANTA

The Oglethorpe campus is located eight miles north of downtown Atlanta.
This proximity to the South's greatest city offers Oglethorpe students many
cultural advantages. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra performs during the
fall and winter months in the Memorial Arts Center. The Atlanta Ballet
Company schedules performances from November through March. Both
The Theatre of the Stars and the Alliance Theatre Company present pro-
ductions of contemporary and classical plays. These are only illustrative of
the wide range of cultural opportunities offered by Atlanta. Student dis-
counts are available for many performances.

HOUSING

The residence halls are available to all full time studerits. There are five
men's residence halls and two women's halls. Both complexes have a
Resident Director and staff of student Resident Assistants.

All students living in the residence halls are required to participate in the
University meal plan. Meals are served in the University Center. Nineteen
meals are served each week. No breakfast is served on Saturday or
Sunday. Instead a brunch is served from mid-morning until early afternoon.

40 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

The evening meal is also served on these days. Meal tickets are issued at
registration.

HEALTH SERVICE

All resident students subscribe to the Student Health and Insurance Plan
provided by the University.

The University maintains a small health center staffed by a registered
nurse. The health center operates on a regular schedule, and provides
basic first aid service and limited medical assistance for students covered
by the student insurance plan.

A physician visits the health center twice a week to make general diagno-
sis and treatment. In the event additional or major medical care is required,
the student patient will be referred to medical specialists and hospitals in the
area with which the health service maintains a working relationship.

When it is determined that a student's physical or emotional health is
detrimental to the academic studies, group-living situation, or other relation-
ships at the University or in the community, the student will be requested to
withdraw. Re-admission to the University will be contingent upon accept-
able verification that the student is ready to return. The final decision will rest
with the University.

"O" BOOK

The O Book is the student handbook of Oglethorpe University. It contains
thorough information on the history, customs, traditional events, and ser-
vices of the University, as well as all University regulations. This publication
provides all the necessary information about the University which will aid
each student in adjusting to college life. It is mailed to all new students in late
summer.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS / 43

Academic Regulations

CLASS ATTENDANCE

The University recognizes attendance at classes as the responsibility of
the student. Students are held accountable for all work missed. The exact
nature of absence regulations is determined by the instructors for their own
courses. Such regulations are published and distributed by each professor
at the beginning of each term.

GRADES

A letter grading system is used. The range of "A-D" represents passing
work; any grade below "D" is regarded as a failure. Students withdrawing
from a course before the end of the semester are given a "G" or "H",
depending upon the circumstances of the withdrawal. Students who do not
meet all the requirements of a course are given an "I" (incomplete) at the
end of the following semester. If the requirements are met by mid-semester
of the next enrolled term, the "I" is replaced by a regular grade. If they are
not met within this time, the grade automatically becomes an "F." Grade
structure and quality points are as follows:

A Superior 4.0

B Good 3.0

C Satisfactory 2.0

D Passing 1 .0

F Failure 0.0

E Failure: Excessive absences 0.0

G Withdrawn 0.0

H Withdrawn Failing 0.0

I Incomplete 0.0

P Passing (used in special cases)
AU Audit (no credit)

MINIMUM ACADEMIC AVERAGE

Though the grade of D is regarded as passing, the University believes
that students, in order to graduate, must exhibit more ability than that
required by the lowest passing mark. Therefore, a student, in order to
graduate from Oglethorpe, must compile an over-all minimum average of
2.2. No student will be allowed to graduate unless this minimum is met.

For the student's own welfare, a graduated system of minimum averages
has been established. Freshmen are required to maintain a cumulative
average of at least 1 .8 in their course work; sophomores of at least 2.0, and
juniors and seniors of at least 2.2.

44 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

A minimum of 1 20 semester hours is required, of which the last sixty must
be earned at Oglethorpe except in exceptional cases (see page 18).

All core courses (or the equivalent for transfer students) plus a major
must be completed. Requirements for majors in the various disciplines are
listed under each section dealing with the major programs.

A minimum grade point average of 2.2 is necessary.

An application for a diploma must be filed with the Registrar at least one
semester prior to graduation.

The specific requirements for each degree must be completed.

All obligations to the institution must be discharged before a degree is
granted including a diploma fee.

The student must be approved formally for graduation by the faculty.

MAJOR REQUIREMENTS

The requirements for specific majors vary among the disciplines. De-
tailed requirements are listed in the sections dealing with majors. The
student is advised to consult frequently with an advisor to satisfy both
general and major requirements.

DEGREES

Oglethorpe offers four degrees to those meeting the necessary require-
ments: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Business Ad-
ministration, and Masterof Arts in Elementary Education. Under the Bache-
lor of Arts, majors programs are offered in the following areas: Business
Administration, Economics, Elementary Education, Secondary Education
(with concentrations available in English, Mathematics, Science and Social
Studies), English, General Studies, History, Philosophy, Political Studies,
Psychology, and Sociology. Under the Bachelor of Science, majors pro-
grams are offered in the following areas: Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics,
Physics, and Medical Technology. Under the Bachelor of Business Ad-
ministration, majors programs are offered in the following areas: Account-
ing, Business Administration, and Economics.

Under certain conditions, it is also possible for a student to receive a
degree from Oglethorpe under "Professional option." Through this arrange-
ment and in accord with regulations of the University, the student may
transfer to a recognized professional institution such as law school,
dental school, or medical school at the end of the junior year and then,
after one year in the professional school, receive a degree from Oglethorpe.
Students interested in this possibility should consult with their advisors to
make certain that all conditions are met.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS / 45

PROBATION AND DISMISSAL

Freshmen who fail to maintain a cumulative average of at least 1.8,
sophomores of at least 2.0, and juniors and seniors of at least 2.2, are
placed on probation for the following term. Academic probation is a strong
warning to students that they must make substantial progress toward
reestablishing their good standing during the following semester or be
dismissed from the University.

Evaluation of academic progress will normally be done at the end of each
academic year but freshmen will be evaluated at mid year. Freshmen who
receive the grade of F in all subjects will be dismissed. Students who do not
meet the following minimum cumulative average scale will be dismissed for
academic reasons: freshmen 1 .0; sophomores 1 .4; juniors 1 .5; seniors 1 .6.

Students who do not meet these minimum requirements at the end of the
academic year will be notified in writing of deficiencies. An opportunity will
be given to attend summer school classes. If deficiences are not corrected,
the student will be dismissed. All dismissals are subject to review by the
Faculty Council. A student who has been dismissed may be reinstated only
upon petition to the Faculty Council. A petition may be filed with the registrar
after an absence of one semester.

STUDENT'S CLASSIFICATION

For administrative and other official and extra-official purposes, students
are classified according to the number of semester hours successfully
completed. Classification is as follows: to 30 hours freshman; 31 to 60
hours sophomore; 61 to 90 hours junior; 91 hours and above senior.

NORMAL ACADEMIC LOAD

A normal academic program at Oglethorpe consists of no less than four
courses each semester, but generally five courses are taken, giving the
student a total of twelve to sixteen semester hours each term. Regular
students in the day classes are expected to carry a normal load and to pay
for a full schedule of courses. Students other than transient and night
students taking a reduced load will pay the rate published by the University.

THE DEAN'S LIST

Students who earn a minimum average of 3.3 or better in any given
semester for an academic load of at least five courses are given the
distinction of being placed on the Dean's List.

46 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

DEGREES WITH HONORS

Degrees with honors are awarded as follow: for a cumulative average of
3.5, the degree civm laude; for a cumulative average 3.7, the degree magna
cum laude; for a cumulative average 3.9, the degree summa cum laude.

ACCESS TO STUDENT RECORDS

To comply with the Family Educational and Privacy Act of 1974, com-
monly called the Buckley Amendment, Oglethorpe University informs the
students of their rights under this act in the student handbook. The "O"
Book. Three basic rights are covered by this act: (1) the student's right to
have access to personal records, (2) the right of a hearing to challenge the
content of a record and, (3) the right to give consent for the release of
identifying data. Additional information may be obtained from The "O" Book
and from the Office of the Dean.

GENERAL INFORMATION / 47

General Information

SEMESTER SYSTEM

Oglethorpe University operates under the semester system during the
academic year. Two summer sessions of five weeks each, plus a ten week
session in the evening make up the summer schedule.

EVENING PROGRAM

As a service to the community, the University offers an evening program
covering three terms per year: one during each semester and one during
the summer. Classes meet two nights each week (Monday and Wednes-
day; Tuesday and Thursday) with three class periods each night. To qualify
for the special tuition rate given to evening students, a student must take all
courses in the evening. A student taking any course during the day will not
be classified as an evening student.

CONTINUING EDUCATION

The Department of Continuing Education acts as a community service in
providing adult non-credit courses for interested people in the community. It
is Oglethorpe's desire to insure that its academic and physical facilities are
made available to all mature adults who show a genuine interest in aca-
demics. From time to time, business and professional workshops and
conferences are sponsored by this department. New courses to develop
skills in leadership and communication will be offered. Additional informa-
tion is available from the Dean of Continuing Education. The telephone

Under the semester system, the curriculum offers courses of three and
four hours credit. A full-time student carries a normal academic load of five
courses duhng each term.

A minimum of one hundred and twenty hours (or their equivalent for
transfer students) is necessary for graduation. Some programs may require
additional credit. A core program according to the following schedule is
required of all four-year students.

THE CURRICULUM / 49

CORE PROGRAM

At Oglethorpe University, each student is required to complete a cohe-
sive group of courses. It is the opinion of the faculty that these courses are
essential to a well rounded undergraduate course of study. Some institu-
tions have distribution requirements. That is, students are required to take a
certain number of credit hours in each department. However it is our belief
that this "cafeteria notion" of course selection is less successful in providing
essential knowledge and skills than is the planned and cohesive core which
is required at Oglethorpe.

In addition, it continues to be University policy to provide instruction of the
highest quality in the core courses. No graduate assistants are used. The
courses are taught by well-trained faculty members. It is not unusual to find
a large percentage of these courses taught by senior faculty members.

The following is the core program:

Western Civilization One of the following: 3 hours

I and II 6 hours Music Appreciation

United States Government .... 3 hours Art Appreciation

Oneofthe following: 3hours Two of the following 6hours

"One of the following may be substituted for this requirement Chemistry I, Chemistry II. Physics I. Physics II, Principles of
Science I, Principles of Science II,

COURSES OF STUDY

In the following section, the courses are listed numerically by area within
their respective Divisions. Each course is designated by a four digit number.
The first digit indicates the course level. (For example: freshman is 1;
sophomore, 2, etc.) The second and third digits designate the discipline.
Each level of offerings assumes the earlier completion of necessary prereq-
uisites. The number of hours refers to the semester hours credit per term
allowed for the course. The designation "3 + 3" or "4 + 4"indicates that the

50 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

course carries 6 or 8 semester hours of credit, respectively, for two semes-
ters of work.

MAJORS PROGRAMS

Upon entering Oglethorpe University all students are assigned a faculty
mentor who assists them in the preparation of their academic program.
Responsibility, however, for taking the requisite core and major courses
rests exclusively with the student. A student may declare a major at any time
during the freshman or sophomore year by filing the appropriate form with
the Registrar's Office. Changes of major must also be submitted to the
Registrar for approval. Each student must declare a major before complet-
ing 60 semester hours.

In addition to the required core program, most of the majors include three
levels of courses; those prescribed for the major, directed electives recom-
mended as immediately related to the major, and free electives allowed to
enable each student to widen his intellectual interests. Variations of each
program are possible, according to the particular needs of the student and
the regulations of each department. Majors programs are offered in the
following:

Accounting History

Biology Mathematics

Business Administration Medical Technology

Chemistry Philosophy

Economics Physics

Education-Elementary Political Studies

Education-Secondary Psychology

English Sociology
General Studies

DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM IN ART

Students seeking a broadly based educational experience involving the
types of programs generally found at a liberal arts college as well as the
specialized training offered by a professional college may consider a dual
degree opportunity. Oglethorpe University and The Atlanta College of Art
offer a joint program for students interested in a career in the visual arts. In
this program, the student enrolls at Oglethorpe for two years, completes
sixty semester hours of work, including the core requirements, and then
enrolls at The Atlanta College of Art for approximately three years.

The student is required to complete 3 credit hours in Art Appreciation and
at least 6 credit hours in Art Studio electives at Oglethorpe. In addition, the

THE CURRICULUM/ 51

Student completes six credit hours in second semester Foundation Design
at The Atlanta College of Art, preferably during the fourth semester at
Oglethorpe. (This requirement or an equal substitute must be met before
the student is enrolled for Introductory Studio classes at ACA.)

Upon successful completion of all of the core requirements plus the
aforementioned art electives, the student enrolls at The Atlanta College of
Art and completes 78 credit hours in Introductory and Advanced Studio and
12 credit hours in Art History electives.

Upon completion of the joint program, the student receives the degree of
Bachelor of Arts from Oglethorpe and the degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts
from The Atlanta College of Art. Students participating in the dual-degree
program must meet the entrance requirements of both institutions.

DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM IN ENGINEERING

Oglethorpe University is associated with the Georgia Institute of Technol-
ogy and Auburn University in combined programs of liberal arts and engi-
neering. The programs require the student to complete three years at
Oglethorpe University and the final two years at one of the engineering
schools. The three years at Oglethorpe include general education courses
and prescribed courses in mathematics and the physical sciences. The two
years of technical education require the completion of courses in one of the
branches of engineering.

The recommendation of the engineering advisory committee at the end of
the three years of liberal studies is sufficient to guarantee the student's
admission to the engineering programs. In this combined plan, the two
degrees which are awarded upon the successful completion of the program
are the degree of Bachelor of Arts by Oglethorpe University and the degree
of Bachelor of Science in Engineering by the engineering school. Because
the pre-engineering programs are tightly structured and the requirements of
the engineering schools are slightly different, the student is well advised to
consult early and frequently with the members of the engineering advisory
committee.

GENERAL STUDIES

The General Studies Major is available to students who prefer not to
select a specific major. The degree awarded is Bachelor of Arts in General
Studies.

The General Studies Major consists of the following: completion of the
basic core requirements; completion of a sufficient number of course hours
to complete the 120 semester hours prescribed for an Oglethorpe degree;
completion of a coherent sequence of courses including at least 1 8 semes-

52 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

ter hours in one discipline and 12 semester hours in another discipline (in
the first category no nnore than two courses could be core requirements,
and in the second category only one could be a core requirement); and
completion of at least 36 semester hours in courses designated for juniors
and seniors.

Concentrations in General Studies also include Pre-Law, Pre-Medicine,
Pre-Dentistry, Pre-Nursing, Post-Nursing and Metro Life Studies.

Pre-Medical and Pre-Dental Studies

Students interested in attending medical or dental schools should consult
the catalogs of these schools to be able to plan an undergraduate program
to fulfill their requirements. A summary of the requirements of all medical
schools is available in the annual bulletin of the Association of American
Medical Colleges.

Specific premedical course requirements vary among the schools. How-
ever, all recognize the importance of a broad educational background. A
coordinated program which includes extensive study in the natural sci-
ences, development of communication skills, and study of the social sci-
ences and humanities is most desirable.

Students should consult regularly with both the medical school catalogs
and the premedical advisor on the Oglethorpe campus. It must be recog-
nized that medical schools set certain minimum science and mathematics
requirements for applicants. These minimum requirements can be met by
completion of the following courses: General Chemistry I and II, Biology I
and II, Calculus I, Elementary Quantitative Analysis, Organic Chemistry I
and II, Physics I and II, and four additional directed electives in Biology.

Professional option is available to highly qualified students. This option
allows pre-medical students to enter their respective professional programs
at the end of the junior year. Credit is awarded at Oglethorpe for the
academic credit earned during the first year of medical school.

Pre-Nursing

A program of study for students interested in nursing is available at
Oglethorpe. This program consists of 60 semester hours (two years) of
study in the liberal arts and sciences which are to be taken at Oglethorpe.
After completion of this program, the student may complete the require-
ments for the R.N. degree at any accredited program of nursing. Sixty hours
of credit are awarded for the R.N. degree and the student is then eligible for
graduation with the Bachelor of Arts degree in General Studies. In addition

semester of the sophomore year or, for transfer students, after having
attended Oglethorpe for one semester.

2. Completion of a pre-teaching experience "September Experi-
ence." Apply for placement after completion of sophomore year.

3. Completion of Student Teaching. Apply for placement by April 15 of
junior year.

4. Completion of entire approved program as found on the following
pages. Professional courses should be completed according to the
sequence listed in the approved program.

Admission to Oglethorpe University does not admit a student to the
Teacher Education Program. A person doing satisfactory academic work
and approved by the Teacher Education Committee is admitted. Once
admitted, the student's progress and record are subject to regular review by
the advisor, other professors, and the Teacher Education Committee. No
student on academic probation will be scheduled to do student teaching
until such probation is removed.

Admission to and retention in the Teacher Education Program are based
in general on the following characteristics and achievements: evidence of
good moral character and personality; evidence of emotional stability and
physical stamina; a desire to work with children and/or youth; demonstra-
tion of proficiency in oral and written English; a cumulative average of at
least 2.2 with no grade less than "C" in a professional course; evidence of
responsibility in student endeavors.

EDUCATION AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES / 73

Completion of the approved program is one of three required steps
toward teacher certification in Georgia. Students also have to demonstrate
competency in the subject field by making a satisfactory score on a state
administered criterion-referenced test and must demonstrate the ability to
perform competently in the classroom setting. Forms needed to apply for
the Georgia teaching certificate are available in the office of the Director of
Teacher Education.

Approved programs leading to teacher certification in Georgia are
described in the following sections. All approved programs include the
requirements for meeting core requirements at Oglethorpe. They may
require more general education than is required to meet the core require-
ments for graduation, or they may require certain courses which may be
applied to the core; careful advisement is necessary on the part of all
students preparing to teach. Public speaking is a suggested elective for all
education majors.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION

Division VI Graduate

Studies In Elementary Education

PROGRAM

The Graduate Division offers work leading to the degree Master of Arts in
elementary education. Completion of the master's program requires the
following steps:

1 . Full admission to the Graduate Division.

2. Admission to Candidacy. Apply after completion of twelve semester
hours graduate credit at Oglethorpe.

3. Satisfactory completion of a comprehensive final examination. Apply
after completion of all required courses but not sooner than one
semester prior to expected graduation.

4. Completion of thirty-six semester hours approved credit. Application
for diploma should be made during the semester prior to anticipated
completion of degree requirements.

ORGANIZATION

The Graduate Division is organized as one of the six academic divisions
of Oglethorpe University. All graduate work is administered by the Graduate
Division, which is governed by the Graduate Council under the policies of
the University. The Graduate Council is the policy-making body chosen
from the graduate faculty and administration, under the leadership of the
chairman of the Graduate Division.

The purposes of the graduate program are to provide well-qualified
students with the opportunity to obtain the first graduate degree, to provide
members of the teaching profession with the opportunity to enhance their
competencies and knowledge in the area of elementary education, includ-
ing the opportunity for those teachers not desiring a graduate degree to
enhance their knowledge and skills. Inherent in the guiding philosophy is
the assumption that graduate study includes more than the passing of
prescribed courses and the meeting of minimum requirements. All students
who receive graduate degrees must possess a broad knowledge of the
literature of their field of study, be capable of sustained study, exhibit the
power of independent thinking, and possess reasonable knowledge of the
techniques of research.

ADMISSION

Upon recommendation of the chairman of the Graduate Council and
approval of the Graduate Council, a person holding a bachelor's degree
from an accredited college or university may be admitted to the Graduate

92 / OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

Division. In addition to general requirements prescribed, the applicant must
submit transcripts of all previous work completed, satisfactory scores on the
Graduate Record Examination (Aptitude Test), two recommendations
(form provided) from previous colleges attended and/or employers and,
when deemed necessary, take validating examinations or preparatory
work. Candidates not previously prepared for teaching must meet require-
ments for first professional certification before completing requirements for
the master's degree.

PROCEDURE

Application forms may be obtained from the Office of Admissions of the
University. Completed forms should be returned to the Office of Admissions
as soon as possible but at least twenty days prior to the term in which the
applicant expects to enroll. These forms should be accompanied by a
$20.00 application fee (non-refundable). All material (completed forms, fee,
transcripts, and test scores) should be sent directly to the Office of Admis-
sions, Oglethorpe University, Atlanta, Georgia 30319. To insure proper
consideration, all documents must be on hand at least twenty days prior to
the proposed time of enrollment. All documents become the property of the
University and will not be returned.

If an applicant does not choose to enter the Graduate Division in the term
indicated on the application, the applicant should notify the Office of Admis-
sions of the change and indicate a new date of entrance, if applicable.
Otherwise, the original admission will be canceled, the file discontinued,
and a new application will be required for admission at a later date.

Admission to the Graduate Division does not imply ultimate acceptance
as a candidate for an advanced degree. For admission to candidacy, see
the section Admission to Candidacy.

Information concerning the administration of the Graduate Record Exam-
ination may be obtained from the Office of Admissions or by writing: Educa-
tion Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey 08540.

CLASSIFICATION

Students may be admitted to the Graduate Division under any one of the
following classifications:

Regular. A student who has a cumulative grade point average of at least
2.8 on a 4.0 scale, satisfactory scores on the GRE and the recommendation
of the chairman of the Graduate Division, and who has completed all
prerequisites required for admission may be admitted as a regular graduate
student.

GRADUATE STUDIES / 93

Provisional. A person failing to meet one or more of the standards
required for admission as a regular student or a qualified senior may be
admitted under conditions specified at the time of admission by the chair-
man of the Graduate Council and approved by the Graduate Council. The
provisionally admitted student may apply to the chairman of the Graduate
Division for reclassification when the conditions have been met. Graduate
courses completed by the provisional student may be counted toward a
degree after the student has been reclassified as a regular student.

A senior within six semester hours of completing requirements for the
bachelor's degree may be permitted to enroll in courses for graduate credit
provided that: (1 ) the student has the permission of the head of the educa-
tion department and the chairman of the Graduate Division; (2) the student
is otherwise qualified for admission to graduate study except for the degree,
and (3) the total load in a semester would not exceed fifteen semester
hours. Under no circumstances may a course be used for both graduate
and undergraduate credit.

Transient. A study in good standing in another recognized graduate
school who wishes to enroll in the Graduate Division of Oglethorpe Univer-
sity and who plans to return thereafter to the former institution may be
admitted as a transient graduate student. In lieu of full transcripts and
regular applications the student must submit a transient student application
form completed by the graduate dean listing specific courses to be taken for
credit. Any student admitted on this basis should understand that registra-
tion terminates upon the completion of the work authorized by the degree-
granting institution. If later electing to seek a degree from Oglethorpe
University, the student must make formal application for admission and may
petition to have credit earned as a transient student applied toward the
degree at Oglethorpe University.

Unclassified. A degree holder who is not a prospective candidate for a
degree at Oglethorpe University, such as a person seeking to meet certifi-
cation requirements or local school requirements, may be admitted without
presenting test scores or recommendations. Credit earned by a student in
this category may be counted toward the degree only with consent of the the
Graduate Council.

REGISTRATION

Registration dates for each term are listed on page 5 of this publication.
Several weeks prior to the beginning of each term, students may obtain
from the Registrar's Office a schedule of classes for that particular term.
Graduate summer sessions may vary slightly either as to dates or length of
courses.

94 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

COURSES AND LOADS

Courses numbered 6000 are open only to graduate students. Some Arts
and Sciences courses with 4000 numbers carry either undergraduate or
graduate credit; graduate students, however, are expected to do more
extensive reading, prepare additional reports, and/or produce papers or
other projects requiring more extensive research.

The maximum course load for any graduate student is fifteen credit hours
per semester or six credit hours in a summer term. Any student serving as a
graduate assistant must carry a reduced load. A person working more than
thirty hours per week normally may not register for more than six hours
credit per semester. In all cases, the graduate student is urged to register for
only the number of hours which can be successfully completed.

ADVISEMENT

Upon admission to the Graduate Division, each student is assigned to a
member of the graduate faculty in education who serves as advisor and
guides the student in planning a program of study.

GRADING

The quality of work of courses taken in the graduate program Is indicated
by the marks A, B, C, and F. Grades of I and W are reserved for special
cases. Listed below are requirements for each of these grades:

A Excellent, with four quality points for each credit hour
B Good, with three quality points for each credit hour
C Poor, with two quality points for each credit hour
F Unsatisfactory work or unofficial withdrawal
I Incomplete may be used if the student, because of unusual
circumstances, is unable to complete the required work in the
prescribed time interval, provided the student was doing satis-
factory work. Such a grade must be removed by the completion
of the work within one year or the I becomes an F.
W Official withdrawal may be permitted if the student's progress is
interrupted by illness or other emergencies.

STANDARDS

Candidates for the master's degree must meet the following academic
standards:
1 . The student's overall grade point average for work submitted in a
graduate program must be 3.0 or higher.

GRADUATE STUDIES / 95

2. If, in any case, the candidate fails to maintain satisfactory academic
standards, a review by the Graduate Council will determine the
student's continuation in a graduate program.

ADMISSION TO CANDIDACY

Application for the Master of Arts degree in elementary education must be
filed with the chairman of the Graduate Division after the student has twelve
semester hours of graduate study at Oglethorpe University. Application for
admission to candidacy would be given or refused following an examination
of the overall work of the student and careful review of the work completed
at Oglethorpe. Notice of action taken on application for admission to candi-
dacy would be given in writing to the student and to the student's advisor.
The student seeking the Master of Arts degree in elementary education
must furnish certification by the chairman of the Education Department of
eligibility for first professional certification or include appropriate make-up
work in the program.

GRADUATION

Required Hours. The program leading to the Master of Arts degree in
elementary education will require completion of thirty-six semester hours of
course credit beyond the bachelor's degree as a minimum requirement.
The following minimum requirements must be included in the credit earned:

Foundations of Education nine semester hours

Elementary Teaching Field courses fifteen semester hours to

include twelve semester hours required in elementary education.

Residence. At least twenty-one semester hours of graduate work must
be completed on campus.

Time Limit. In any graduate program all work (including the comprehen-
sive examination) must be completed within a six-year period. It is expected

mester hours of graduate credit may be transferred from another accredited
institution subject to the following conditions: (1) transfer credit will not be
considered prior to admission to candidacy; (2) work already applied toward
another degree cannot be accepted; (3) work must have been completed
within the six-year period allowed for the completion of degree require-
ments; (4) work must have been applicable toward a graduate degree at the
institution where the credit was earned; (5) work offered for transfer must
have the approval of the Graduate Division; and (6) acceptance of the
transfer credit does not reduce the residence requirement.

Under no circumstances may credit earned through correspondence
work be applied toward satisfaction of degree requirements.

96 /OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY
