The goals of the educational program and of other component parts of the University are based on this sense of institutional purpose. The Oglethorpe Tradition Three main ideas or models of what higher education ought to be have shaped American colleges and universities. 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 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 univer- sities, 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 institu- tions 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 1862. 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 foundation on which many of the state universities have been built. Oglethorpe University identifies itself with the tradition of the English college. Established in 183 5 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 educational classics. Briefly stated, four characteristics have made this kind of college widely admired: 1) 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 com- petencies reading, writing, speaking, and reasoning and the fundamental fields of knowledge the arts and sciences. These are essential tools of the educated person. 3) Close relationships between teacher and student are indispensable to this type of education. A teacher is much more than a conveyor of information 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 instruc- tion, conducted in huge classes, is the very antithesis of the English tradition. 4) A collegiate education is far more than a collection of academic courses. It is a process of development in which campus leader- ship opportunities, residential life, athletics, formal and informal social functions, aesthetic experiences, and contact with students from other cultures, in addition to classroom exercises, all play important roles. Versatility and ability to lead are important goals of this type of undergraduate education. Two other aspects of Oglethorpe's tradition were contributed by Philip Weltner, President of the University from 1944 to 1953. Oglethorpe, he said, should be "a small college which is superlatively good." Only at a small col- lege with carefully selected students and faculty he believed, could young persons achieve their fullest intellectual development through an intense dialogue with extraordinary teachers. Thus, a commitment to limited size and superior performance are important elements of the Oglethorpe tradition. Purpose: Education for a Changing Society While an institution may take pride in a distinguished heritage, it is also essential that its educational program prepare young people to function effectively in our complex and rapidly changing society. What are the re- quirements of an education intended to inform and enrich lives and careers that will be conducted in the remainder of this century and beyond? Many commentators on contemporary social conditions and future trends agree that the rapidly changing society in which we live places a premium on adaptability. Persons in positions of leadership must be able to function effectively in changing circumstances. Rigid specialization, with its training in current practice, ill prepares the graduate for responsibilities in such a society. The broadly educated person, schooled in fundamental principles. is better equipped to exercise leadership in a world that is being transformed by high technology and new information. This point has been made persua- sively by John Naisbitt in the first chapter of his notable book Megatrends. One of the underlying trends he identifies in our society is that "we are moving from the specialist who is soon obsolete to the generalist who can adapt." Oglethorpe emphasizes the preparation of the humane generalist the kind of leader needed by a complex and changing society. Our purpose is to produce graduates who are broadly educated in the fundamental fields of knowledge and the basic concepts and principles of their disciplines and who are prepared to exercise responsible leadership in public and private life. The University limits its educational program to the arts and sciences, business administration, and teacher education. It defines its primary role as the conduct of a program of undergraduate education for men and women of above-average ability and traditional college age. In addition, a Master's degree in teacher education and programs of continuing education for adults are offered as services to the local community. Goals Educational programs at Oglethorpe seek to produce graduates who display abilities, skills, intellectual attitudes, and sensitivities which are related to the University's purpose. The core curriculum of general education, which is required in all baccalaureate programs, is designed to develop the following: 1) The ability to comprehend English prose at an advanced level. 2) The ability to convey ideas in writing and in speech accurately, gram- matically, and persuasively. 3) Skill in reasoning logically about important matters. 4) An understanding of the values and principles that have shaped Western civilization and of the methods employed in historical inquiry. 5) A knowledge and appreciation of great literature, especially the great literature of the English-speaking world. 6) An appreciation of one or more of the arts and an understanding of artistic excellence. 7) An acquaintance with the methods of inquiry of mathematics and science and with the results of the efforts of scientists to under- stand physical and biological phenomena. 8) An understanding of the most thoughtful reflections on right and wrong and an allegiance to principles of right conduct. 9) A basic knowledge of our economic, political, and social systems and of the psychological and sociological influences on human behavior. All undergraduate programs also require the student to develop a deeper grasp of one or more fields of knowledge organized coherently as a major. The student's major may be pursued in a single field, such as biology economics, or English, or it may cut across two or more traditional fields (as an interdisciplinary or individually planned major). The curriculum and extra-curricular life are structured to engender in students the following: 1) The willingness and ability to assume the responsibilities of leader- ship in public and private life, including skill in organizing the ef- forts of other persons in behalf of worthy causes. 2) An inclination to continue one's learning after graduation from col- lege and skill in the use of books and other intellectual tools for that purpose. 3) A considered commitment to a set of career and life goals. 4) An awareness of the increasingly international character of contem- porary life and skill in interacting with persons of diverse cultural backgrounds. The graduate program in teacher education and the continuing educa- tion program assist adult learners in pursuing their educational goals and career advancement. Each of these programs has particular goals which are appropriate to its educational role. The success of Oglethorpe alumni in their subsequent education, a wide variety of careers, and community life attests to the soundness of this approach to education. Oglethorpe was chartered on December 21, 183 5, as a result of the efforts of a group of Georgia Presbyterians. The founders named the new college after General James Edward Oglethorpe, the distinguished leader of Georgia in its earliest days. The University began operations on January 1 , 1 838, at Midway, a small town near Milledgeville, then the state capital, with 1 2 5 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 time, Samuel K. Talmage, provided gifted leadership and gathered about him a faculty of unusual ability, at least two of whom would achieve national distinction: 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 distinguished graduates during the early years, the most famous being the poet Sidney Lanier. A member of the class of 1 860, 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 stability and academic soundness, but its life and service were suddenly cut short in the 1 860's as the University became a casualty of war. Her students marched away to become Confederate soldiers; her endowment 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 University 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 determination of Thornwell Jacobs, a noted Presbyterian minister, to reestablish Oglethorpe. He enlisted the support of Presbyterian churches throughout the South and East and of influential individuals and groups in Atlanta. His vision materialized in 1915 with the laying of the cornerstone of the first building (later named Phoebe Hearst Memorial Hall) on the present campus. Oglethorpe alumni from the classes of 1 860 and 1 86 1 were present for the historic ceremony, thus linking the old Oglethorpe with the new. Dr. Jacobs was subsequently 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 recognized as one of the region's most innovative educational institutions. In 193 1 , 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 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 American. General David Sarnoff, founder and Chairman of the Board of the Radio Corporation of America (R.C.A.), spoke at the dedication of the Crypt in 1938, which was broadcast over the National Broadcasting Company network. Several other interesting projects began during the Jacobs administra- tion, including an unsuccessful attempt to relocate the remains of General lames Oglethorpe from England to the Oglethorpe campus. In the late 1 930's the "Exceptional Education Experiment" was instituted with the aim of adding greater depth and meaning to the educational process for a group of gifted students. The University received national attention in 1932, when Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke on the campus and received an honorary degree prior to his election as president that year. A new chapter opened in the history of Oglethorpe in 1 944 when Philip Weltner assumed the presidency and, with a group of faculty associates, including Gerhart Niemeyer, George Seward, and Wendell Brown, initiated a new and exciting approach to undergraduate education 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 was developed. The University continued to make steady progress during the presidencies of J. Whitney Bunting, Donald Wilson, Donald C. Agnew, and Paul R. Beall. Throughout this period strong teachers were appointed, the academic program was further developed, and there was a gradual expansion of the 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 longtime dean and an acting president. The presidency changed hands once again in 1967, when 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, Goslin Hall. In addition, 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 education, the attraction of students from abroad, increasing selectivity in admissions, and the acceleration of financial development are other areas that have received particular attention. Oglethorpe University has had a long and exciting history and has produced 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. 10 The Presidents of the University Carlyle Pollock Beman, 1836-1840 Samuel Kennedy Talmage, 1841-1865 William M.

Among its outstanding features are a variety of study areas, a large reading-reference room on the first floor, and an outdoor reading patio. 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. A variety of microform materials are available. The collection of over 190,000 items includes books, periodicals, microforms, and audiovisual materials. More than 300 periodical subscriptions provide a diversified range of current information. The R. L. Dempsey Special 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 Sears Collection of Children's Literature contains over 2,000 volumes of children's books, which help support the graduate program of elementary education. The Japanese Collection 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 library is a member of the library consortium of the University Center in Georgia, a group of ten college libraries in the Atlanta-Athens area. The library is open seven days a week during the regular academic year. On five days it is open day and evening. The Emerson Student Center The Student Center was built in 1966. It was named in honor of William A. and Jane S. Emerson, benefactors of the University, in 1983. As the hub of campus life, the Emerson Student Center houses the lounges, television room, recreational facilities, post office student activity offices, conference rooms, the cafeteria, the dining room, and several Community Life offices. An outdoor swimming pool is adjacent to the building. 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 3 50 persons. The University Business Office is located on the lower level of Lupton Hall; the office of the Dean of the Faculty, the Registrar, and the Admissions Office are on the first floor; the Office of the President, Vice President for Administration, Dean of Community Life, Office of Counseling and Career Development, Offices of Development. Public Relations, Alumni Affairs, and two lecture halls are on the second floor. The Office of Financial Aid and faculty offices of the Division of Economics and Business Administration are on the third floor. 13 The original cast bell carillon in the Lupton tower has 42 bells which chime the quarter hours and a daily afternoon concert. Phoebe Hearst Hall Phoebe Hearst Hall was built in 1915 in the handsome 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 computer center was completed in 1977. The University book store is located on the lower level of the building. The dominant feature of the building is the beautiful Great Hall, the site of many traditional and historic events at Oglethorpe. Located on the ground floor of the building is the much-publicized Crypt of Civilization. This capsule was sealed on May 28, 1940, and is not to be opened until May 28, 8113. Goslin Hall Goslin Hall was completed in 1971 and houses the Division of Science. 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 Emeritus of Physics, for his many years of dedicated work for the college and the nation. A new physics laboratory, made possible by a grant from the Olin Foundation, was opened in 1979. All laboratories were renovated in 1985. 14 Traer Hall Built in 1969, 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 semi-private rooms open onto a central plaza courtyard. As are 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 27 rooms and is used to house some Junior and Senior women. Private rooms are available. 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 1968, these buildings were refurbished in 1977. The three-story structures house all male resident students. A $1.2 million redesign of the complex began in 1979, and was completed in 1985. All rooms on the first and second floors are suites with private entrances and baths. Faith Hall The Student Health Center is located 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 and volleyball, intramural and recreational sports, and large campus gatherings such as concerts and commencement exercises. Built in 1960, this structure underwent major renovation in 1979. The building is named for the late R. E. Dorough, a former Trustee of the University. Athletic Facilities Intercollegiate soccer and intramural Softball are played on Anderson Field which is between Hermance Stadium and the field house. The intramural softball field is located behind the men's residence hall complex. Six tennis courts are adjacent to the field house and below them is a six lane, all-weather reslite track. A student sponsored physical fitness center is located in the basement of Lupton Hall. 15 Admissions Admissions The admissions policy of Oglethorpe University is based on an individual selection process. Throughout its history, Oglethorpe has welcomed students from all sections of the 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 applicants who present strong evidence of purpose, maturity, scholastic ability and probable success at Oglethorpe. Freshman Applicants Admission to the undergraduate division of the University may be gained by presenting evidence of successful completion of secondary school work and by providing the results of the College Entrance Examination Board's Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or the results of the American College Testing Program Assessment (ACT). Arrangements to take the SAT or ACT may be made through a secondary school guidance counselor or by writing directly to one of the testing agencies. For SAT write to the College Board, Box 592, Princeton, New Jersey 08540, or Box 102 5, Berkeley, California 90701. For ACT write to American College Testing Program, P.O. Box 451, Iowa City, Iowa 52240. It is to the applicant's advantage to take one of the tests late in the junior year or early in the senior year of high school. Applicants should normally have or be in the process of completing a secondary school program including appropriate courses in English, mathematics and/or science, and social studies. While an admissions decision may be based on a partial secondary school transcript, a final transcript must be sent to the admissions office by the candidate's school, showing evidence of academic work completed and official graduation. The Oglethorpe application contains a reference form and a list of other materials which must be submitted by the applicant. No application will be considered and acted upon until the items indicated have been received. Applications will be considered as they become reviewable, and the applicant will be notified of the decision as soon as action has been taken. Transfer Students Students who wish to transfer to Oglethorpe from other accredited colleges are welcome, provided they are in good standing at the last institution attended. They are expected to follow regular admissions procedures and will be notified of the decision of the Admissions Committee in the regular way. The same information is required of the transfer student as for the entering freshman, with the following exception: High school records and test scores are not required of students having more than one full year of transferable credit. Transfer students must submit transcripts of all current and previous college work. A separate official transcript from each college attended must be received before any action will be taken on the application. Oglethorpe University will accept as transfer credit courses comparable to University courses which are applicable to a degree program offered at 17 Oglethorpe. A two-year residence requirement is in effect but may be reduced to one year by joint decision of the Dean of the Faculty 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 on probation or exclusion from another institution will not be accepted, with the following exception: Students who have not been enrolled in any institution for five years will be considered for admission by the Admissions Committee. Transfer students having a GPA of less than 2.3 (on a 4.0 scale) will automatically be reviewed by the Admissions Committee. Oglethorpe does not accept a "D" grade as transfer credit, unless a student has graduated from an accredited junior college, or a "D" grade is followed by a "C" grade or better in a normal sequence course (e.g.. General Biology I and II). 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 Faculty in consultation with the Registrar, the appropriate division chairman, and the student. Junior college graduates with strong academic records are encouraged to apply for admission. All financial aid awards and scholarships are open to transfer students as well as freshmen. Oglethorpe University will accept as many as 30 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 experience. Students who serve for two years or more may receive six hours credit. International Students Admission to Oglethorpe is open to qualified students from all countries. Students who are able to provide evidence of suitable academic background, adequate financial resources, and seriousness of purpose are eligible to apply. All students from countries where English is not the native language must meet one of the following requirements to be considered for admission: 1. Complete level 109 from an ELS, Inc. language center. 2. Score a minimum of 500 on the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). 3. Score 400 or more on the verbal section of the International Scholastic Aptitude Test. 4. Have a combined 2.30 GPA with no grade below a "C" in two English composition courses from an AACRAO (American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers) accredited college or university. International students must take an English composition placement test prior to beginning the first semester of classes. They will be placed in an appropriate English composition course. The normal sequence of composition courses for students from non-English-speaking countries is: English as a Second Language I & II followed by English Composition I & II. An international student's secondary school credentials are subject to the acceptance criteria stated for his or her country in the AACRAO world education series, governed by the National Council on the Evaluation of Foreign Educational Credentials, 1717 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20036. All students from nations where English is the native language must have one of the following to be considered for admission: 1 . A combined SAT score of 900, with at least 400 on the verbal section. 2. An ACT score of at least 21. 3. Above average scores on the "A" level examinations in British system schools or their equivalent in Northern Ireland or Scotland. Joint Enrollment Students Students who have attained junior or higher standing in their secondary schools may apply for enrollment in suitable courses offered at the University. Admission to the joint enrollment program will depend upon a joint assessment by appropriate personnel of the student's secondary school and by Oglethorpe admissions personnel. In general, the candidate must have the social maturity to benefit from a collegiate experience and possess a B or higher grade point average along with a combined score of 1050 or higher on the Scholastic Aptitude Test or its equivalent. A student seeking admission should write or call the joint Enrollment Counselor in the Registrar's Office of Oglethorpe to receive an application. Early Admission (Early Entrance) A gifted student of unusual maturity whose high school record shows excellent academic performance through the junior year in a college preparatory program, and whose score on a standardized aptitude test are high may submit his application for admission to the University for enrollment after the junior year in high school. The candidate should have the support of his or her parents in writing submitted with the application. A strong recommendation from the high school is expected, and the candidate must come to campus for a personal interview with a senior admissions officer. Special and Transient Students In addition to regular students, a limited number of special and transient students will be accepted. Special students are defined as those students not working toward a degree at Oglethorpe. They are limited to a maximum of five courses (15 semester hours). Special students must meet the following requirements: 1. Five years since high school attendance. 2. High school graduate or successful passage of General Education Development test. 19 If a special student completes 1 5 semester hours at Oglethorpe and desires to continue, he will automatically be required to apply for change of status to a degree-seeking student and be subject to the same requirements as the degree-seeking student. Exception: Students already holding a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution will not be required to change to degree-seeking status unless they desire to work toward another degree at Oglethorpe. Students changing from special to regular status are subject to review by the Admissions Committee. Transient students may take any course offered by the University provided that they secure permission from their current institution certifying that the institution will accept for transfer credit the academic work done by the student at Oglethorpe. This permission is the responsibility of the transient student. A letter of good standing or a current transcript must be sent to the admissions office before a transient student can be accepted. 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 in a college or university during the preceding five years are exempt from the regular entrance examination requirements. Persons who have never completed their undergraduate degrees and wish to resume their study after an extended 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. Two special programs are offered as needed for adults who desire to re-enter 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 other program is a seminar that covers topics like financial planning, personal readjustment, child care, values clarification, goal setting, and personal affirmation. The University is able to offer admission to non-traditional students by recognizing their strengths in enthusiasm, motivation, and maturity. Post Nursing Admissions Program Students who hold the R.N. degree from an appropriately accredited institution are awarded credit for their arts and sciences courses. To earn a Bachelor's degree, the student must complete the core curriculum, a major, and other applicable requirements. 20 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 60 semester hours of credit will be accepted through these programs. College Level Examination Program CLEP Within the testing program are two categories. The General Examinations cover the areas of English Composition, Humanities, Mathematics, Natural Science, and Social Science History.

The Family Financial Statement (FFS) 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 Pell Grant and the Georgia Incentive Scholarship if a resident. In completing the Family Financial Statement, the student will receive an acknowledgement from American College Testing Service and his Student Aid Report for the Pell Grant Program. When the report is received, it should be forwarded to the Director of Financial Aid. Students may receive several types of aid to complete their "package" of financial assistance. A financial aid package may include assistance from any one or more of the following sources: Pell Grant is a federal aid program intended to be the floor in financial assistance. Eligibility is based upon a family's financial resources and a rationing formula published by the government. Applications for this program may be obtained from the Office of Financial Aid or from a high school guidance office. This aid is administered in the form of non-repayable grants. Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG) do not require repayment. The size of the grant depends on the need of the individual recipient. To qualify for an SEOG, a student must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment, and must be capable of maintaining normal progress toward the achievement of a degree. Application for these funds is made by filing a Family Financial Statement. National Direct Student Loans (NDSL), are long-term, low-cost educa- tional loans to students 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 five per cent annual rate be- ginning six months after the borrower's education is terminated. These loans are available to students who show a demonstrated financial need through the Family Financial Statement. Students electing to serve in the Peace Corps, a volunteer under Title 1 - Part A of the Domestic Volunteer Service Act, a full-time volunteer in a similar tax-exempt organization 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 (CWSP) permits a student to earn part of his/her 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 Incentive Scholarship (GIS), as defined by the Georgia Student Finance Authority, is a "program created by an act of the 1974 Georgia General Assembly in order to establish a program of need-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 de- signed to provide only a portion of the student's resources in financing the total cost of post-secondary education. 25 Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant (GTEG) is available for Georgia residents who attend full-time and seek their degree at 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 university but find the financial cost prohibitive due primarily to high 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 and verify their eligibility for the grant. In the 1985-86 school year, this grant was $775 per academic year. Financial need is not a factor in determining eligibility. A separate application is required. Guaranteed Student Loans (GSL) and Federally Insured Student Loans (FISL) are long-term loans available through banks, credit unions, and other lending institutions. Students desiring to seek a loan in this manner should consult with the Director of Financial Aid for additional information. James Edward Oglethorpe Scholarships provide tuition, room, and board for four years of undergraduate study, if scholarship criteria continue to be met. Recipients are selected on the basis of an academic competition held on campus in the spring of each year. Students must be nominated by their secondary schools, must have a combined SAT score of at least 1200 (ACT 28), a 3.6 or higher cumulative academic grade point average, and a superior record of leadership in extracurricular activities either in school or in the community. Applications must be received by mid December. Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) are relatively long- term loans available through banks, credit unions, and other lending institu- tions. Parents desiring to seek a loan from this program should consult with the Office of Financial Aid for additional information. Oglethorpe Scholars Awards (OSA) Scholarships based on achievement are available to students with superior academic ability and special talents in important fields of extracurricular activity. The program will include such activities as dramatics, publications, both journalistic and literary; elective of- fice, including student government; choral performance, religious service, social service and athletics. 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, room, and board are awarded to superior students with good character and leader- ship capability who can contribute significantly to one of the fields of extracur- ricular activity. The individual amounts of these awards vary upwards from $500. For scholarships that may exceed one half of annual tuition, students must be nominated by member of the Oglethorpe faculty or staff in order to be considered for an award. Recipients of funds from this program are expected to maintain specified levels of academic achievement and to continue to make siginficant contribu- tions 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 perform- ance factors by the Director of Financial Aid. Ty Cobb Educational Foundation Scholarship Program. Only students who are residents of Georgia and who have completed at least one year of 26 "B" quality or higher work in an accredited college are eligible to apply for TV Cobb Scholarships. No applications from undergraduate students who are married will be considered. The Faculty Scholarship Committee makes recommendations for these scholarships each year. Dual-degree students in art and engineering will not be allowed to extend Oglethorpe scholarship and funds to other institutions after fall semester, 1982. Additional information may be secured from the Office of Financial Aid. Eligibility Applicants for a Pell Grant, National Direct Student Loan, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, College Work-Study Guaranteed Student Loan or Parent Loan must meet the following criteria: 1. Student must be a U.S. citizen, national or permanent resident. 2. Be enrolled on at least half-time basis (6 hours) in a regular degree- seeking program. 3. Student must maintain "satisfactory progress" in the course of study. Satisfactory progress means that a student must earn 24 semester hours each 12 months in order to continue receiving financial aid. Part-time students must complete a percentage of 24 hours each year. For example, half-time students must complete 12 hours. In addition, students must remain in good standing. The following standards are used to determine good standing: Number of Hours Completed Grade-Point Average Years to Complete 0-24 1.5 1 25-35 1.5 2 36-48 1.75 2 49-65 1.75 3 66-72 2.0 3 73-96 2.0 4 97-120 2.0 5 A student determined by the Director of Financial Aid not to be meeting these standards at the end of Spring semester must attend summer school as a probationary period. At the end of summmer school assistance will be terminated if the above standards are not met. However, probation may be extended or summer school omitted by appeal to the Admissions and Scholarship Committee citing mitigating circumstances. Students not making satisfactory progress may re-establish eligibility when they have earned the required 24 hours and obtained the respective cumulative grade-point average. All applicants who re-establish their eligibility must have an appointment with the Director of Financial Aid prior to receiving financial aid again. 4. Students may not be in default on a student loan or obligated to pay a refund on a previous federal program. 5. Establish financial need by filing a Family Financial Statement. 6. Be an undergraduate student who has not previously received a Bachelor's degree. Graduate students may apply for financial aid from the National Direct Student Loan or the College Work-Study Programs. 27 7. Applicants may not be a member of a religious community, society, or 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. Payment of Awards All awards, except college work-study earnings, are disbursed to students by means of a direct credit to their account. Each semester transfer is dependent upon final approval of the Director of Financial Aid. Each student must acknowledge receipt of the awards prior to their being credited to a student's account. Only when a student's file is complete can aid be transferred to the account.

Scholarship Students Scholarship students are appointed midshipmen, USNR, after nationwide competition. They have their tuition, fees and textbooks paid for by the Navy for a period not exceeding four years, are uniformed at government expense and receive retainer pay at the rate of $100 per month. Students must obligate themselves to complete the prescribed naval science curriculum, to make a cruise of from six to eight weeks each summer, to accept a commission as Ensign, USN, or Second Lieutenant, USMC, upon graduation, and to serve on active duty for four years after commissioning unless released earlier by the Navy Department. At the end of this period their active duty obligation to the Navy or Marine Corps is fulfilled. If they do not desire to remain on active duty in the regular Navy or Marine Corps, they are ordered to inactive duty in the Navy or Marine Corps Reserve. 37 College Program Students College program students are enrolled under the provision of Public Law 88-647. The college program can be entered during the freshman year or. upon qualification, prior to April 1 of the sophomore year. Qualified sophomores attend eight weeks of active duty schooling during the summer before their junior year so they can join their classmates on an equal footing in the junior year naval science classes. Prior to starting the junior year, the college program student is required to enlist in the U.S. Naval Reserve for a period of six years. The student must agree to serve on active duty for not less than three years after appointment to commissioned rank in the U.S. Naval Reserve or Marine Corps Reserve and to retain that commission until the sixth anniversary of receipt of original commission. College program students are uniformed at government expense and. during their junior and senior years, receive retainer pay of $100 per month. They must complete the prescribed naval science curriculum, make a cruise of approximately six weeks during the summer after the junior year, and upon graduation accept a commission as Ensign, USNR or Second Lieutenant, USMCR. If they desire, after receiving their reserve commission college program students may apply for a commission in the regular Navy or Marine Corps. All college program students are under constant consideration for award of a scholarship. Sophomore students who attend the eight weeks of schooling during the summer before their junior year may be awarded a scholarship on the basis of superior performance during schooling. Naval Science Students Any regularly enrolled undergraduate student may enroll as a naval science student. Those enrolled as naval science students take naval science courses as electives and have no contract with the Navy. They have no assurance of ultimate commissioning nor do they derive any of the financial benefits available to scholarship and college program students. Selection Procedure Scholarship students are selected in nationwide competition based on SAT or ACT scores. The NROTC at Georgia Tech has no part in this selection although information about the scholarship program is available. The professor of naval science may annually nominate several college program students to the Chief of Naval Education and Training for a scholar- ship. To apply for the college program, a student must be enrolled at Georgia Tech or attending an accredited college or university in the near vicinity and be at least 17 and not over 21 years of age. Applicants are selected to fill the quota based on physical qualifications, interview by naval officers, score on SAT and high school record. Applicants for the college program should apply at the Naval Armory during the designated days of freshman orientation week for the fall quarter. 38 Courses N.S. 1002.

The tuition charged by Oglethorpe University represents only 60 per cent 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. 75 per cent 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 $2,985 per semester. Room and board is $1,565 per semester. Students who desire single rooms are assessed an additional $370 per semester. The tuition of $2,985 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. Students taking more than 16 hours during a semester are charged $100 for each additional hour. Payment of tuition and fees is due two weeks prior to Registration Day each semester. 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 deadline. Students and parents desiring to pay expenses in installments should contact their lending institutions or other sources such as Tuition Plan, Inc.. or EFI-Fund Management. 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 $100. 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 $50 per year. In addition, any student covered by the basic policy may purchase the Major Medical Plan for $50 a year. International students, students participating in any intercollegiate sport, and students participating in intramural football or basketball are required to have this major medical coverage or its equivalent. (Insurance rates are for 1985-86. They will change for 1986-87.) In addition to tuition and room and board charges, students may be required to subscribe to the following: 1 . DAMAGE DEPOSIT A $100 damage deposit is required of all boarding students. The damage deposit is refundable at the end of the academic year after any charge for damages is deducted. Room keys and other college property must be returned and the required checkout procedure completed prior to issuance of damage deposit refunds. This deposit is payable at fall registration. Students who begin in the spring term must also pay the $100 damage deposit. 2. GRADUATING SENIOR: Graduation fee of $50. 3. LABORATORY FEE: A $20 fee is assessed for each laboratory course taken. 42 Full-time, on-campus student: Fall, 1985 Spring, 1986 TUition $2,985 Tuition $2,985 Room & Board 1,565 Room & Board 1,565 Damage Deposit 100 Damage Deposit Major Medical (optional) . . 50 Major Medical (optional) .... Advance Deposit 100 Advance Deposit 100 Full-time commuting student: Fall, 1985 Tuition $2,985 Spring, 1986 TUition $2,985 Advance Deposit 50 Advance Deposit 50 These schedules do not include the extra cost of single rooms, books (approximately $2 50 per year), or travel and personal expense. All fees are subject to change. PartTime Fees Students enrolled part-time in day classes during the fall or spring semesters will be charged $630 per three semester hour course. This rate is applicable to those students taking 1 1 semester hours or less. Students taking 12 to 16 hours are classified full-time. Evening and Summer Courses Fee schedules for the evening and summer programs are available from the Division of Continuing Education. 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 the drop/add week. After the drop/add period, the professor must approve the change in schedule. The professor may issue one of the following grades: withdraw passing (W), withdraw failing (WF), 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 class day. No refund will be processed until classes have ceased for the semester in progress. 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 responsibility stated above concerning the official withdrawal policy. The student may receive the grade of withdrawal passing, withdrawal failing, or failure due to excessive absences. 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 43 consecutive classes. This will result in an automatic decrease in payments to the student. Reinstatement in a course is at the discretion of the instructor. If a student must withdraw from the University, an official withdrawal form must be obtained from the Registrar. The Dean of the Faculty 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. Refunds The establishment of a refund policy is based on the University's commitment 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 commitment by admitting and providing the necessary programs for all students and expects students to reciprocate that commitment. 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 $100 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 reminded that all changes in their academic program must be cleared through the Registrar; and 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 40 days. In the following schedules, "class day" means any day during which the University conducts classes. Refund Schedule Changes in schedule by the end of the 7th class day 100% Changes in schedule by the end of the 10th class day 75% Changes in schedule by the end of the 16th class day 50% Changes in schedule by the end of the 20th class day 25% In order to administer the refund policy equitably, there will be no exceptions. Damage deposit refunds will be processed once each semester for students and will be mailed on an announced day from the Business Office. No refund will be processed until classes have ceased for the semester in progress. 44 Leadership Development Oglethorpe University seeks to prepare its students for roles of leader- ship in society. The University sponsors the biannual Oglethorpe Lectures on Leadership, which afford students the opportunity to gain insight into the leadership philosophies of recognized national and regional leaders. In addition, specific educational experiences are planned to help the student acquire the skills of leadership. Education for leadership must be based on the essential academic competencies reading, writing, speaking, and reasoning. Though widely neg- lected today at all levels of education, these are the prerequisites for effec- tive leadership. They are the marks of an educated person. Oglethorpe insists that its students achieve advanced proficiency in these skills. In addition, stu- dents 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 improve- ment of our community and our society. Orientation and the Freshman Seminar Oglethorpe University wishes to provide each student with the oppor- tunity to make a successful adjustment to college life. Because we take pride in our tradition of close personal relationships, we have organized an orien- tation program to provide these relationships, as well as much needed infor- mation about the University. The program has been developed to assist students through small group experiences. Information is disseminated which acquaints. the student with the academic program and the extracurricular 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 orientation experience, a Freshman Seminar is held during the first semester. Topics discussed during these sessions are designed to meet the needs of the entering student and to help the student assimilate his college experiences. Freshman students, having completed the orientation program and Freshman Seminar, are better prepared to understand and appreciate their educational development. Student Responsibility Oglethorpe University is a community within the wider community. As such, students are expected to maintain high standards of conduct. They should respect the privacy and feelings of others and the property of both students and the University. Students are expected to display behavior which is not disruptive of campus life or of the surrounding community. Students represent the University on and off campus. Students whose actions show that they have not accepted this responsibility will be subject to disciplinary action as set forth in The "O" Book. 46 The Oglethorpe Student Association The Oglethorpe Student Association is the guiding body for student community life at Oglethorpe University. The OS. A. consists of two bodies, an executive council, composed of the president, vice president, parliamentarian, secretary, treasurer and the presidents of the four classes, and the senate, chaired by the vice president and composed of four senators from each class. Both bodies meet regularly. Notices are posted for senate meetings, which are open to the public. Additional information can be obtained from the O.S.A. Office or the Student Center Office located on the upper level of the Emerson Student Center. The address is Oglethorpe Student Association, 3000 Woodrow Way N.E., 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 to the extent that such involvement does not deter them from high academic achievement. Students are especially encouraged to join professional organizations associated with their interests and goals. The value of a student's participation is a major consideration in determining scholarships.

The four fraternities are Chi Phi, Delta Sigma Phi. Kappa Alpha and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The national sororities are Chi Omega and Delta Zeta. 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 regulations established by the Interfraternity Council, the Panhellenic Council, and the Dean of Community Life. Athletic Policy At Oglethorpe University the students who participate in intercollegiate competition are considered to be students first and athletes second. All students engaged in athletics must satisfy the same academic requirements as other students. There are no scholarships which are based solely or primarily on the athletic ability of the student. However, Oglethorpe provides a program of Oglethorpe Scholars Awards which are described in another section of this bulletin. Many students who are interested in sports and are superior academically can qualify for this form of assistance. Athletics Oglethorpe University offers intercollegiate competition in basketball, cross country, soccer, tennis and track for men; and in cross country, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition to the intercollegiate competition, a well-rounded program of intramural sports is offered and has strong participation by the student body. Men and women participate in flag football, tennis, volleyball, basketball, and softball. -v 48 Cultural Opportunities on Campus There are numerous cultural oppportunities for students outside the classroom. The University Program Committee sponsors concerts, theatrical productions, poetry readings, and lectures by visiting scholars. The Oglethorpe University Singers perform frequently during the year, particularly during the holidays and often with guest artists. The Art Gallery, on the third floor of Lowery Hall, sponsors four exhibitions a year as well as lectures on associated subjects and frequent concerts in the gallery. The Oglethorpe University Players also stage several productions each year. Cooperative Education/Internships Beginning in their sophomore year, students can further refine their career plans through cooperative education and internship work experiences. These programs provide practical experience which complements the academic program. Besides giving students an opportunity to gain marketable work experience, they are also given the opportunity to test the reality of their career decisions. Cooperative education and internship experiences are available to students in all academic programs. Opportunities can be arranged in business, government, education, social services, and health care institutions. Counseling The counselor at Oglethorpe provides confidential, professional assistance to students experiencing psychological or social problems. Though academic advising is the responsibility of individually assigned faculty mentors, students encountering unusual academic difficulties may wish to consult the 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 helpful. Placement Students who need guidance in selecting a career, or assistance in ob- taining appropriate job placement, can receive help from the Office of Placement, Internship, and Cooperative Programs. An extensive career information library is maintained containing information on a wide variety of career opportunities. Vocational interest inventories are also available and are frequently used as a part of an individualized process of career advising. A four-year program of career development is available to interested students. The program provides guidance on career decisions and specific job preparation. Special attention is given to the improvement of skills in communication and interviewing, constructing resumes, and job search strategies. 49 Oglethorpe University maintains contact with numerous local and national businesses, industries and social service agencies for the purpose of arranging employment and experiential learning opportunities for the students and graduates. Information on full-time and part-time and summer employment opportunities is updated 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 request this placement file will be sent to any prospective employer or graduate school indicated. 50 Opportunities in Atlanta Oglethorpe is located eight miles north of downtown Atlanta (fifteen minutes via nearby mass transit system). This proximity to the Souths greatest city offers 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. The Alliance Theatre Company the Academy Theater, and many smaller companies present productions of contemporary and classical plays. The High Museum of Art hosts major traveling exhibitions in addition to its permanent collection. Student discounts are often available. Housing The residence halls are available to all full-time day students. There are five men's residence halls and two women's halls. Each complex has a Resident Director and a 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 Emerson Student 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. The evening meal is also served on these days. Meal tickets are issued at registration. Health Service All resident students subscribe to a Basic Student Accident and Sickness Insurance Plan provided by the University. Full-time students living off campus may purchase this insurance. In addition, any student covered under the basic policy may purchase an optional Major Medical Plan for an additional charge. 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. A physician visits the health center twice a week to make general diag- nosis 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. v "- , . 51 When it is determined that a student's physical or emotional health is detrimental to his academic studies, group-living situation, or other relation- ships at the University or in the community, the student will be requested to withdraw. Readmission to the University will be contingent upon acceptable 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 services 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.

Schedule planning and course selection for following semesters are accomplished during pre- registration week. Students should make appointments to consult with their academic advisers during preregistration. Summer schedules are planned during preregistration week in the spring semester. The official registration period precedes the first day of classes. Every student must complete the various steps of the registration process during this period. Those who have preregistered are able to pick up a copy of their course schedule at the first station of registration and thereby bypass the station at which proposed course schedules are computer processed by Registrar's Office personnel. All other stations must be completed by pre- registered students. Academic Advising Each student consults with a member of the faculty in preparing course schedules, discussing post-graduation plans, and inquiring about any other academic matter. A student's adviser or "mentor" is assigned at the time of the student's initial enrollment. The faculty adviser is each student's primary point of contact with the University To change advisers a student must complete the following procedural steps: 1) Ask the proposed "new" faculty adviser for permission to be added to the faculty member's advisee list. 2) Ask the current adviser to send his student file to the faculty member who has agreed to be the student's new adviser. 3) Ascertain that the new adviser has received the file and has sent an Adviser Change notice to the Registrar's Office. This is the only method for changing academic advisers. When the student decides on a major field, he or she should change advisers, if necessary, to a faculty member who has teaching responsibilities in the student's major field. Attendance Regular attendance at class sessions, laboratories, examinations, and official University convocations is an obligation which all students are expected to fulfill. Faculty members set specific attendance policies in their course syllabi. Grading Faculty members report letter grades for students at the end of each semester. These grades become part of the student's official record. Once entered, a grade may not be changed except by means of an officially executed Change of Grade form. 55 A student's cumulative grade-point average (GPA) is calculated by di- viding the number of semester hours of work the student has attempted into the total number of quality points earned. The letter grades used at Oglethorpe are defined as follows: Quality Numerical Grade Meaning Points Equivalent A Superior 4 90-100 B Good 3 80-89 C Satisfactory 2 70-79 D Passing 1 60-69 F Failure Below 60 FA Failure: Excessive Absences* W Withdrew** WF Withdrew Failing* I Incomplete*** S Satisfactory**** 70 or higher u Unsatisfactory* AU Audit (no credit) Notes: * Grade has same effect as an "F" on the grade-point average (GPA). ** Grade has no effect on the GPA; no credit awarded. * * * Grade has same effect as an "F" on the GPA; an "I" changes to an "F" unless the remaining required work is completed satisfactorily and the grade is changed by the instructor before the end of the following semester. **** Grade has no effect on the GPA; credit is awarded. Only work completed at Oglethorpe is reflected in the Oglethorpe GPA. Dean's List Students who earn a semester grade-point average of 3.5 or higher carrying 14 semester hours or more are enrolled on the Dean's Academic Honors List. Graduation Requirements To earn a baccalaureate degree from the University the following requirements must be met: 1) Completion of 120 semester hours of course credit, with an Oglethorpe cumulative grade-point average of 2.0 or higher. 2) Completion at Oglethorpe of the 60 semester hours of course credit immediately preceding graduation (except by special permission by the Dean of the Faculty and the chairman of the division in which the student is majoring). 3) Satisfaction of core requirements and major field or dual degree re- quirements (see appropriate disciplinary headings for descriptions). 56 4) Submission of an application for graduation to the Registrar's Office during the semester or session preceding the graduation at which the degree is to be awarded (fall semester for those who complete requirements in December). 5) Satisfaction of all financial and other obligations to the University and payment of a diploma fee. 6) Participation in assessments of competencies gained and curricular effectiveness by completing standardized or other tests and surveys. 7) Receipt of formal faculty approval for graduation. Master of Arts degree candidates are referred to the Division VI section of this bulletin for a description of degree requirements and other academic regulations which pertain to the graduate program. Good Standing, Probation and Academic Dismissal To be in good standing students must achieve the cumulative grade-point averages specified below in relation to the number of semester hours they have completed. Cumulative GPA Required Semester Hours Completed for Good Standing 0-35 1.5 36-65 1.75 66 and above 2.0 Students who fail to achieve good standing are placed on probation. Students who are on probation for two consecutive semesters are subject to dismissal from the University for academic reasons. New students, freshmen or transfer students, who do not pass even one course during their first semester at Oglethorpe are dismissed. Students who have been dismissed for academic reasons may be readmitted after an absence of one spring or fall semester upon petition to the Dean of the Faculty. Students readmitted by petition must achieve good standing by the end of their second semester as readmitted students or be dismissed permanently.

The Master of Arts degree is offered only in the field of education with concentrations in early childhood or middle grades education (see Division VI section of this bulletin). Under certain conditions it is also possible for a student to receive a degree from Oglethorpe under the Professional Option. Through this arrange- ment and in accord with regulations of the University the student may transfer to an accredited 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 inter- ested in this possibility should consult with their advisers to make certain that all conditions are met. Degrees With Academic Honors Degrees with honors are awarded as follows: cum laude for a cumulative average of 3.5 or higher; magna cum laude for 3.7 or higher; and summa cum laude for 3.9 or higher. The academic requirements for honors must be met on all work completed at Oglethorpe and on all the combined work taken at Oglethorpe and at other institutions, if that work is presented in satisfaction of degree requirements. To be eligible for academic honors, the student must have completed 60 or more semester hours at Oglethorpe. See also. Senior Honours Option. Earning a Second Baccalaureate Degree Students who have completed a baccalaureate degree may earn a second baccalaureate degree at Oglethorpe. For students who earned their first baccalaureate degree at Oglethorpe the requirements are: 1. Completion of an additional 30 semester hours while maintaining a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or higher. 1 5 of the 30 semester hours must be completed at Oglethorpe. 2. Completion of a major other than the major(s) completed at the time the first degree was awarded. For students who earned their first baccalaureate degree at another institution, the requirements are: 1. Satisfaction of Oglethorpe core requirements. 2. Completion of a minimum of 30 semester hours work at Oglethorpe. 3. Maintenance of a 2.0 or higher cumulative grade point average. 4. Completion of a major other than the major(s) completed at the time the first degree was awarded. The degree from the other institution is treated as transfer credit; up to a maximum of ninety semester hours may be accepted. 58 Student Classification For administrative and other official and extra-official purposes, undergraduate 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 12 to 16 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. Withdrawal from the University Students who wish to withdraw from the University during a semester are asked to complete the appropriate form, which is available at the Registrar's Office. The grade "W" or "WF" will be assigned for courses in progress, depending upon the student's academic progress in those courses. Withdrawal from a Course The grade "W" or "WF" is assigned to a student who withdraws from a course (turns in a properly executed withdrawal form at the Registrar's Office) from the conclusion of drop and add period through midterm or the middle of a mini or summer session. After that time the grade "W" is assigned only in the case of a prolonged illness (physician's letter must be submitted directly to the Registrar's Office) or withdrawal from the University. In the case of an emergency departure from the campus as a result of which withdrawal forms have not been executed, the Registrar's Office verifies that the student has left campus as a result of an emergency and notifies instructors. Instructors may elect to assign a "W" in such a case even if it occurs after midterm or midsession. A student who withdraws from the University after midterm or the middle of a mini or summer session is assigned the grade "W" or "WF" in courses depending upon the student's academic progress in those courses. Repetition of Courses Courses completed originally during the fall semester of 1983 or subsequently may be repeated only if an unsatisfactory grade (D, F FA, or WF) was received in the course. Courses completed prior to the fall semester 1983 may be repeated regardless of the grade received originally. For a repeated course, the higher of the two grades received in the course is calculated into the student's cumulative grade-point average. However, for 59 courses completed originally in the fall semester of 1984 and subsequently, all grades received in the course are calculated into the student's cumulative grade-point average. Policy on Academic Fraud Definitions Cheating on Examinations 1) The unauthorized use of notes, texts, or other such materials during an examination. 2) Copying another person's work or participation in such an effort, 3) An attempt or participation in an attempt to fulfill the requirements of a course with work other than one's original work for that course. Students have the responsibility of avoiding participation in cheating incidents by doing their own work, taking precautions against others copying their work, and in general neither giving nor receiving aid. Plagiarism Misrepresenting someone else's words, ideas, data, or original research as one's own. In general failing to footnote or otherwise acknowledge the source of such work. One has the responsibility of avoiding plagiarism by taking adequate notes on reference materials used in the preparation of reports, papers, and other coursework. The instructor decides if there is substantial and convincing evidence that an incident of willful and flagrant plagiarism has occurred. Penalties for Academic Fraud If the instructor believes that there is substantial and convincing evidence that an incident of academic fraud has occurred, the student is assigned an "F" in the relevant course and the instructor delivers written notification to the Dean of the Faculty of such action. The Dean of the Faculty informs the student by letter that the student is suspended from the University for the next full semester. Students may not register for summer session courses at Oglethorpe while suspended. Coursework taken at another college during the period of suspension is not acceptable as transfer credit at Oglethorpe. A student suspended for academic fraud may not take part in any University activities nor frequent the campus. Upon notification of suspension the student may request a review of the evidence of academic fraud by an ad hoc Evidence Review Committee composed of: 1) Dean of the Faculty. 2) The student's academic adviser. 3) Two faculty members appointed by the Dean of the Faculty. 4) Three students selected by the president of the Olgethorpe Student Association. (In the absence of the president, the vice-president shall select the students.) The Evidence Review Committee's task is to decide whether the evidence of academic fraud is convincing enough to constitute proof beyond a reasonable doubt of a violation. The second academic fraud offense will result in the student's expulsion. 60 Again, the student may ask an ad hoc Evidence Review Committee to decide whether the evidence presented constitutes proof beyond a reasonable doubt of a violation. Access to Students Records To comply with the Family Educational and Privacy Act of 1974, com- monly called the Buckley Amendment, Oglethorpe University informs 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 withhold or give consent for the release of identifying data. Additional information may be obtained from The "O" Book and from the Dean of the Faculty. 61 Semester System Two semesters constitute the regular academic year. Two day sessions, an evening session and a mini-session are offered in the summer. Division of Continuing Education The University's Division of Continuing Education offers a variety of edu- cational opportunities to adults in the metropolitan Atlanta area. Included are credit courses in the liberal arts and business, non-credit courses, and educational experiences designed to meet the specific needs of employers, of organizations, and members of vocational groups. Continuing Education Degree Program An evening-weekend credit program serves two groups: those who wish to take a limited number of courses for special purposes and those who desire to earn baccalaureate degrees. Degree programs are offered in Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, and the Individually Planned Major. Classes meet two nights a week (Monday and Wednesday, or Tuesday and Thursday) and on Saturday mornings. The academic year is divided into three full terms fall, spring and summer and an abbreviated term in May. To qualify for the special tuition rates offered continuing education students, a student must take all courses in the evening or on Saturdays. Non-Credit Course Program The Division of Continuing Education serves as the University's community service arm, providing non-credit courses for- adults. Carefully planned courses meet varying educational needs of adults living in the University's area. Classes meet on weekday evenings and Saturdays in fall, winter, spring and summer terms. Human Resource Development Training needs of business, industry, government, and vocational groups in the north Atlanta area are met through individually designed seminars, workshops, and conferences. Emphasis is placed on training for managers, with a Certificate in Management awarded to individuals who complete the prescribed course of study. Additional information is available from Dean of Continuing Education at (404) 233-6662. 62 Organization Oglethorpe's curriculum is arranged in six general divisions: Humanities: History and Political Studies; Science, Education and Behavioral Sciences; Economics and Business Administration, and Graduate Studies. Academic areas included within each division are as follows: Division I: The Humanities Art Drama English Literature Foreign Languages Music Philosophy Division II: History and Political Studies History Political Studies Division HI: Science Biology Chemistry Mathematics Physics Division IV: Education and Behavioral Sciences Early Childhood Education Middle Grades Education Secondary Education Psychology Sociology Social Work Division V: Economics and Business Administration Accounting Business Administration Computer Science Economics Division VI: Graduate Studies M.A. in Early Childhood and Middle Grades Education Interdisciplinary Course Offerings American Studies Physical Fitness Under the semester system, courses of one to five semester hours credit are offered. A full-time student carries a normal academic load of five courses during each semester. (15 semester hours). A minimum of 120 hours (or their equivalent for transfer students) is required for graduation. Some programs may require additional credit. The core curriculum, as described below, is required of all four-year, degree-seeking students in the undergraduate program. 64 Core Curriculum The core curriculum is a specified set of courses in the fundamental fields of knowledge: composition and communication, the humanities, the behavioral and social sciences, mathematics and the natural sciences. A required component of every undergraduate program, the core is designed to develop the following knowledge, skills, and sensitivities: 1) The ability to comprehend English prose at an advanced level. 2) The ability to convey ideas in writing and in speech accurately grammatically and persuasively. 3) Skill in reasoning logically about important matters. 4) An understanding of the values and principles that have shaped Western civilization and of the methods employed in historical inquiry. 5) A knowledge and appreciation of great literature, especially the great literature of the English-speaking world. 6) An appreciation of one or more of the arts and an understanding of artistic excellence. 7) An acquaintance with the methods of inquiry of mathematics and science and with the results of the efforts of scientists to understand physical and biological phenomena. 8) An understanding of the most thoughtful reflections on right and wrong and an allegiance to principles of right conduct. 9) A basic knowledge of our economic, political, and social systems and of the psychological and sociological influences on human behavior. 10) An inclination to continue learning after graduation from college and skill in the use of books and other intellectual tools for that purpose. Core courses are taught by all faculty members in the disciplines included in the core. The following is the core program, listed in the approximate suggested sequence for completion. Course # Course Title CI 11 Freshman Seminar CI 2 1 English Composition I (or appropriate course(s) via placement) C122 English Composition II C2 1 1 Western Civilization I C212 Western Civilization II C330 College Mathematics (or appropriate course(s) via placement) C222 Introduction to Political Studies C462 Introduction to Psychology C471 Introduction to Sociology CI 61 Introduction to Philosophy CI 31 Music Appreciation or CI 81 Art Appreciation C3 51 Physical Science or a laboratory course in Physics or Chemistry C521 Introduction to Economics 65 Social Studies Requirement (One of the Following) 2216 American History to 1865 2217 American History Since 1865 2221 United States Foreign Policy 222 3 Constitutional Law 2224 International Relations Literature Requirement (Two of the following, after completion of CI 22) 2121 Western World Literature: The Classics through the Renaissance 2122 Western World Literature: The Enlightenment to the Present 2123 English Literature: The Middle Ages and the Renaissance 2124 English Literature: The 17th and 18th Centuries 212 5 English Literature: The Novel 2126 English Literature: The Romantics and the Victorians 2127 American Literature: The Puritans to Realism 2128 American Literature: The 20th Century C3 52 Biological Science or General Biology I or II Courses of Study In the following section courses are listed numerically by discipline within their respective divisions. Most courses are designated by a four-digit number. The first digit indicates the level of the course. 1 = freshman level. 2 = sophomore level, 3 = junior level, 4 = senior level, and 6 = graduate level. Higher level courses in a discipline are typically designed to build upon the content of lower level courses in that discipline and other specified prerequisite courses. In some cases, the letter C. L, or P replaces the first digit in the course number. C indicates that the course fulfills a core requirement. L means laboratory: P means that the course is a preliminary course to the required core course in that discipline. The number of hours refers to the semester hours of college credit per semester which are earned by the successful completion of the course. 66 Major Programs Completion of a major program is required for all baccalaureate degrees. The student's academic adviser assists with the student's selection of a major. The student declares the major selected on the course registratrion form completed each semester. Students must declare a major during the second semester of the sophomore year. A major is an orderly sequence of courses in 1) a particular discipline, 2) a combination of two disciplines, or 3) a defined interdisciplinary field. A major includes a minimum of 45 and a maximum of 62 semester hours of required coursework. Each major must allow for the student's selection of courses which are not in the discipline(s) of the major and not required components of the core curriculum. Each major includes a substantial component of advanced courses which have specified prerequisites. A major may require for successful completion a cummulative grade point average in the major field which is higher than the 2.0 cummulative grade point average required for graduation. Alternatively, the requirements for the major may state that only courses in which a "C" or higher grade is received may be offered in satisfaction of the major's requirements. The student is responsible for ensuring the fulfillment of the requirements of the major selected. Specific requirements for each of the majors listed below are indicated in the section of the Bulletin in which the course offerings of the discipline are described or in the sections which state the requirements of individually planned and interdisciplinary majors. Accounting History American Studies Individually Planned Biology Major Business Administration International Studies Business Administration and Mathematics Behavioral Science Mathematics/ Business Administration/ Computer Science Computer Science Medical Technology Chemistry Philosophy Economics Physics Education-Early Childhood Political Studies Education-Middle Grades Psychology Education-Secondary Sociology English Sociology-Social Work Minor Programs Minor programs are available in some of the fields. Students should consult the section of the Bulletin in which a particular major is described to ascertain whether a minor is offered and what its specific requirements are. In general, a minor consists of at least 1 5 semester hours of course work beyond any core requirements in that discipline. 67 Senior Honours Option Juniors who have achieved a 3.3 or higher cumulative grade point average (GPA) and a 3.5 or higher GPA in courses completed in a particular discipline may apply to undertake an honours project in that discipline during their senior year. Junior Year At the end of the first semester of the student's junior year, the student asks a professor to act as the Tutor for an honours project. If the faculty member agrees to do so, the Tutor and student decide on a list of preparatory readings. The student becomes familiar with the works on the list during the second semester of the junior year prior to registering for the initial semester of honours work. Senior Year In order to register for honours work during the first semester of the senior year, the student reports to the Tutor on work done on the reading list and on topic definition. If the Tutor is satisfied that the student is prepared to begin a research program, the Tutor initials the course entitled, [Disciplines Name) Independent Study I, 2 semester hours. Early in the semester, and no later than mid-semester, the honours student presents a research prospectus to the Tutor, which, when approved by the Tutor, is presented to the division chairperson for review. The division chairperson reviews the prospectus and, if it is approved, recommends two readers for the project one or more of whom may be outside the division. The Tutor seeks the agreement of the recommended readers to serve in that capacity and reports back to the division chairperson. At the end of the semester the Tutor grades the student's work for the semester. The student should have completed the research specified in the prospectus and have an outline of the paper to be written. The student may take a second semester of honours work only if an A" is received for the initial semester's work. Those who receive a "B" or lower grade will be asked to withdraw from the honours program. A continuing honours student registers for (Discipline's Name) Independent Study II, 1 semester hour, for the second semester of the senior year. A first draft of the paper should be ready for review by the Tutor prior to mid-semester. After revisions and corrections, the final version is read by the Tutor and the two faculty members who have agreed to act as readers. The Tutor and readers consult on the grade for the paper. If they are unable to reach agreement, the division chairperson will be asked to participate in the consultations. Only an "A" paper constitutes successful completion of the honours program. The credit hours earned in the honours program may be counted as academic credit in the discipline in which the work was done. Students who successfully complete the program have inscribed on their diplomas "Honours in (Discipline's Name). The honours program should not be confused with overall academic honors, which are announced at the commencement ceremony and are based only on the student's cumulative grade point average (see Degrees with Academic Honors, above). Students interested in an honours project should consult with a faculty member in the field in which they seek to do the project. 68 Dual Degree Program In Art Students seeking a broadly based educational experience involving the types of programs generally found at a college of arts and sciences as well as the specialized training offered by a professional college may consider the dual degree program in art. Oglethorpe University and The Atlanta College of Art (ACA) 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 60 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 three credit hours in Art Appreciation and at least six credit hours in studio electives at Oglethorpe. In addition, the 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 200, 300, and 400 level studio courses 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 students are advised at Oglethorpe by a faculty member in the field of visual arts. Dual Degree Program in Engineering Oglethorpe is associated with the Georgia Institute of Technology and Auburn University in combined programs of liberal arts and engineering. 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. 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 required pre-engineering curricula of the two schools are slightly different, the student is advised to consult frequently with the faculty member serving as dual degree engineering program adviser. Individually Planned Major An individually planned major combines coursework in two disciplines. The following requirements must be fulfilled: completion of core requirements; completion of 120 semester hours, completion of a coherent sequence of 69 courses including at least 18 semester hours in one discipline and 12 semester hours in another discipline (in the first category no more than two courses may be core requirements, and in the second category only one may be a core requirement); and completion of at least 36 semester hours in courses beyond the introductory level. The degree Bachelor of Arts is awarded. An academic adviser guides the student who selects this major in the planning of a program which meets all requirements of the major. Some possible combinations of disciplines are: history and English; business administration and political studies; and economics and philosophy. Premedical Program A student who plans to attend a professional school of medicine, dentistry, optometry, pharmacy or veterinary medicine should plan a program of studies at Oglethorpe in consultation with a faculty member who is a designated premedical adviser. It is desirable for the premedical student to begin the process of undergraduate program planning with a premedical adviser. It is essential that contact be established by the second semester of the student's freshman year. Professional schools of health science require for admission successful completion of a specified sequence of courses in the natural sciences as well as the submission of acceptable scores on appropriate standardized tests. However; premedical students have a wide latitude of choice with regard to the major selected. Students should familiarize themselves with the particular admission requirements of the type of professional school they plan to enter prior to deciding on the course of study to be pursued at Oglethorpe. The professional option is available to highly qualified students seeking admission to appropriately accredited colleges of medicine, dentistry and vet- erinary medicine. This option allows students to enter their respective professional schools at the end of their junior year. Credft is awarded at Oglethorpe for the successful completion of the first year of professional school (see Degrees, above). Allied Health Studies Students who plan to attend professional schools of nursing, physical therapy or other allied health fields should plan their programs at Oglethorpe with the assistance of the faculty member serving as the Allied Health Adviser. The name of this adviser can be obtained at the Registrar's office. In allied health fields, successful completion of the program in an accredited professional school and a minimum of 60 semester hours credit earned at Oglethorpe are required to earn the Bachelor of Arts degree with an individually planned major in two relevant disciplines. Prelegal Program Students planning to enter law school after graduation from Oglethorpe should realize that neither the American Bar Association nor leading law schools endorse a particular prelaw major. The student is advised, however, 70 to take courses that enhance the basic skills of a liberally educated person: reading with comprehension, writing, speaking, and reasoning. The student is encouraged to become more familiar with political, economic, and social institutions as they have developed historially and as they function in contemporary society. Students are referred to the Prelaw Handbook, which is available in the University bookstore, for a more complete discussion of the desirable aspects of a prelaw curriculum. Students interested in pursuing a legal career should ask the Registrar for the names of faculty members serving as prelaw advisers. Preseminary Preseminary students should plan a curriculum with emphasis on phi- losophy, religion, English, and foreign language courses. A faculty adviser will aid in the selection of a particular field of study. For further guidance, the chairman of the humanities division makes available a list of courses recom- mended by the American Association of Theological Schools. luniors and seniors are encouraged to take an internship related to their course work. Internships and Cooperative Education Oglethorpe University offers two on-the-job learning programs: Co- operative Education and Internships. These programs provide students with the opportunity to have an employment experience designed to promote their professional and personal growth. It also allows students to explore particular career options. Opportunities are available in all majors for students who (1) demonstrate a clear understanding of the goals they wish to accomplish in the experience and (2) possess the necessary academic and personal background to accomplish these goals. Cooperative Education Cooperative Education is a non-credit program in which students alternate semesters of work and study until graduation. Students begin the co-op experience in their junior year. Opportunites are available with major employers such as Delta Air Lines, IBM Corporation and the Centers for Disease Control. Internships Students with a 2.8 or higher cumulative grade point average may qualify to begin an internship experience in the sophomore year. Every internship requires a statement of academic objectives and requirements developed in consultation with the student's faculty adviser and/or faculty internship supervisor. Upon successful completion of the internship, the student is awarded academic credit in recognition of the learning value of the experience. Students who are interested in a co-operative education or internship experience should first consult with their faculty adviser and then visit the Office of Placement, Internship, and Cooperative Education in Lupton Hall. 71 Interdisciplinary Majors Interdisciplinary majors are offered in American Studies. Business Ad- ministration and Behavioral Science. Business Administration and Computer Science. International Studies, and Mathematics and Computer Science. Students who choose one of these majors should notify the Registrar so that an appropriate adviser may be assigned. American Studies The major in American Studies is designed to provide students with the opportunity to develop a systematic and in-depth understanding of American culture. By combining American studies courses and courses from relevant disciplines (history literature, the arts, economics, and the social sciences) students may explore the relationships of diverse aspects of American life. Students are also able to pursue their special interests within American culture by developing an "area of concentration" that provides a specific focus for much of the work completed in fulfillment of major requirements. In addition to introducing students to the field of American studies, the major is designed to help students refine their fundamental intellectual skills, especially their writing and speaking skills. Skills of this sort will serve the student well long after many specific facts, postulates, and theories have been forgotten. In short, as is consistent with Oglethorpe's stated institutional purpose, the American studies program seeks to prepare humane generalists individuals who possess those basic qualities so necessary for leadership in a rapidly changing world. The Requirements of the Major Include: 1. Completion of the following nine courses: 2141 The American Experience 2216 American History to 1865 2217 American History Since 1865 2127 American Literature: The Puritans to Realism 2128 American Literature: The 20th Century 3141 Community and Individualism in America 3 523 United States Economic History 4141 Senior Seminar in American Studies 3217 The Age of Affluence: The United States Since 1945 2.

The American Experience, 2141, should be taken in the freshman or sophomore year. The seminar courses 3141 and 4141, are to be taken in the junior and senior years. A "C" average in major coursework is required for graduation. The degree awarded is the Bachelor of Arts. Business Administration and Behavorial Science This major provides students with the knowledge and skills of the behavorial sciences as they may be applied in the business world. The major helps to prepare students for careers in business, especially those related to human resources, or for graduate study in business administration and applied psychology. The major consists of 14 required courses and four directed electives. The four directed electives should be carefully selected with the assistance of the faculty adviser and must be evenly divided between business adminis- tration courses and courses in behavorial sciences. A "C" average in course- work in the major is required for completion of this major. The degree awarded is the Bachelor of Arts. The Requirements of the Major Include: 1. The completion of the following fourteen courses: Business Administration Courses C521 Introduction to Economics 1510 Business Law I 2 530 Principles of Accounting I 2 531 Principles of Accounting II 2 541 Introduction to Computer Science 2 513 Management 3517 Marketing Behavioral Science Courses C462 Introduction to Psychology C471 Introduction to Sociology 2464 Organizational Psychology 3463 Psychological Testing 2473 Social Psychology 73 2518 Statistics Choice of: 2519 Management Science or 3461 Introductory Experimental Psychology Electives: (The major requires two electives from business administration and two from the behavioral sciences) 2141 The American Experience 2474 Social Problems 2 542 Principles of Computer Programming 2 555 International Business 3516 Managerial Finance 3521 Intermediate Microeconomics 3522 Intermediate Macroeconomics 3526 Labor Economics 3 527 Economic Development 45 5 5 Marketing Communications 4 5 56 Marketing Research 3465 Theories of Personality 3471 Cultural Anthropology 3477 Community and Individualism in America 3464 Psychology of Leadership 4473 Population 4465 Internship in Psychology or 4517 Internship in Business Administration Business Administration/ Computer Science The administration of business involves the collection, storage, analysis, and reporting of large volumes of financial and non-financial data. By com- bining courses in business administration and computer science, this inter- disciplinary major acquaints students with the ways in which computer systems can assist in carrying out the accounting, finance, marketing, and manage- ment functions of business. An additional aim is to encourage innovative approaches to administration that would be impractical without the computa- tional capacity of the computer. The major requires completion of ten specified courses and two elec- tives with a grade of "C" or better in each course. The degree awarded is the Bachelor of Arts. Requirements of the Major Include: Completion of the following courses: 1331 Calculus I 2 530 Principles of Accounting I 2 531 Principles of Accounting II 2 542 Principles of Computer Programming 2 512 Quantitative Methods in Business 74 2 518 Statistics 2 513 Management 3 517 Marketing 3 516 Managerial Finance 3 544 Principles of File Processing 4516 Strategic Planning 2. Completion of two of the following three courses: 2 541 Introduction to Computer Science 3542 Introduction to Data Structures 4542 Topics in Computer Science International Studies International Studies is an interdisciplinary major which seeks to develop the student's appreciation of the multi-cultural global environment. The major helps to prepare students for careers in international commerce, the travel and convention businesses, international banking and finance, and govern- ment. The major also provides an appropriate undergraduate background for the professional study of business, public policy, and law. Students interested in this major should ask the Registrar to refer them to a faculty adviser who specializes in this major. The degree awarded is the Bachelor of Arts. The Requirements of the Major Include: 1. The completion of the following five requirements (including prerequisites): 2221 United States Foreign Policy 2224 International Relations 3214 Europe Since 1918 3471 Cultural Anthropology 3 527 Economic Development or 4523 International Economics 2.

Four semesters study of a foreign language or demonstration of proficiency in a foreign language which would be equivalent to four semesters of study. 4. A study abroad experience. A summer session or semester at a foreign university is the preferred method for fulfilling this requirement. Students may plan to complete requirement (3), above, during their study abroad experience. Oglethorpe University maintains an affiliation with the American Institute for Foreign Study to aid students in identifying worthwhile foreign study opportunities. Advisers who specialize in the international studies major can acquaint students with a wide variety of foreign study programs. 75 Cultural Studies of Europe I & II or Eastern Studies 1 & II may be offered to satisfy this requirement. Note: Students who graduated from a secondary school located abroad at which the language of instruction was not English may satisfy the language requirement. (3). with English and the study abroad requirement, (4), via their residency in the United States. Mathematics/Computer Science Since its inception as an academic discipline, computer science has been closely associated with mathematics. Many of the field's pioneers are mathe- maticians by training. Indeed, modern computer science would not be possi- ble without the existence of a number of mathematical developments once thought to be entirely theoretical in nature. The major in Mathematics and Computer Science is designed to acquaint students with the various linkages between computer science and mathematics and to enable students to understand more thoroughly their primary discipline whether it is mathematics or computer science. Rigorous training in mathematical thinking will provide the student with essential analytical tools and mental discipline, while the problem-solving skills that will be sharpened in the process of developing algorithms for computer applications will prove to be beneficial to students of mathematics. Students will become familiar with ways in which modern computational tools have made possible work in mathematics that would otherwise be prohibitively laborious.
