General
Information
This bulletin is primarily for the prospec-
tive graduate student. It is the belief of
those who prepared it that all the material
will prove important to some prospective
students and that most of it will be impor-
tant to every new student.
The statements set forth in this bulletin
are for informational purposes only and
should not be construed as the basis of a
contract between a student and this
institution.
Whilethe provisions of this bulletin will
ordinarily be applied as stated, Augusta
College reserves the right to change any
provision listed in this bulletin, including
but not limited to academic requirements
for graduation, without actual notice to
individual students. Every effort will be
made to keep students advised of any
such changes. Information on changes
will be available in the office of the Dean
of Graduate Studies.
The University System
of Georgia
The University System of Georgia in-
cludes all state-operated institutions of
higher education in Georgia 4 univer-
sities, 14 senior colleges, 15 junior col-
leges. These 33 public institutions are
located through the state.
A 15-member constitutional Board of
Regents governs the University System,
which has been in operation since 1932.
Appointments of Board members are
made by the Governor, subject to confir-
mation by the State Senate. The regular
term of Board members is seven years.
The Chairperson, the Vice Chairper-
son, and other officers of the Board are
elected by the members of the Board. The
Chancellor, who is not a member of the
Board, is the chief executive officer of the
Board and the chief administrative officer
of the University System.
The overall programs and services of
the University System are offered through
three major components: Instruction;
Public Service/Continuing Education;
Research.
Instruction consists of programs of study
leading toward degrees, ranging from the
associate (two-year) level to the doctoral
level, and certificates.
Requirements for admission of stu-
dents to instructional programs at each
institution are determined, pursuant to
policies of the Board of Regents, by the
institution. The Board establishes min-
imum academic standards and leaves to
each institution the prerogative to estab-
lish higher standards. Applications for
admission should be addressed in all
cases to the institutions.
Public Service/Continuing Education
consists of non-degree activities, primar-
ily, and special types of college-degree-
credit courses.
The non-degree activities are of several
types, including short courses, seminars,
conferences, lectures, and consultative
and advisory services, in a large number
of areas of interest.
13
Typical college-degree-credit public
service/continuing education courses are
those offered through extension center
programs.
Research encompasses investigations
conducted primarily for discovery and
application of knowledge. These investi-
gations cover matters related to the edu-
cational objectives of the institutions and
to general societal needs.
Most of the research is conducted
through the universities; however, some
of it is conducted through several of the
senior colleges.
The policies of the Board of Regents
provide autonomy of high degree for
each institution. The executive head of
each institution is the President, whose
election is recommended by the Chancel-
lor and approved by the Board.
State appropriations for the University
System are requested by, made to, and
allocated by the Board of Regents. The
largest share of the state appropriations
is allocated by the Board for resident
instruction. The percentages of funds
derived from all sources for resident
instruction in the 1982-83 fiscal year
were: 77 percent from state appropria-
tions, 20 percent from student fees, 3
percent from other internal income of
institutions.

History
Augusta College is located on a hill over-
looking the downtown area of the city of
Augusta in the center of the Central
Savannah River Area. It traces its begin-
nings to the Academy of Richmond
County, which was chartered on July 31 ,
1783.
In 1925, the Junior College of Augusta
was founded, beginning its operations
with the 1926-27 session. In September
1957, the Junior College moved from
Richmond Academy to its present loca-
tion. The Board of Regents incorporated
it into the University System of Georgia
and changed the name to Augusta Col-
lege.
Former presidents of the college are
George Phineas Butler, James Lister
Skinner, Eric West Hardy, Anton Paul
Markert, and Gerald Burns Robins. Dr.
George Andrew Christenberry assumed
the presidency on July 1, 1970.
Facilities
The 80-acre campus is the former planta-
tion of an 18th century Southern leader,
Freeman Walker. The land was used as an
arsenal from 1826 to 1955. Though the
campus has been altered considerably,
historical features have been retained
and renovated. The walls of the fort of the
arsenal still have in them rifle and gun
slits, but now encompass a garden.
Bellevue Hall, once the home of the
Freeman Walker family, is the oldest
building on the campus, dating back to
1805. This building houses the Counsel-
ing Center and the Testing Center. The
President's Home, Payne Hall, Rains Hall,
Fanning Hall, and the Data Systems Cen-
ter are located around the quadrangle
and were all part of the original arsenal.
Payne Hall houses the offices of the Vice
President for Academic Affairs, Dean of
Graduate Studies, Dean of Students,
Associate Dean of Students, Director of
Financial Aid, Director of Admissions,
and Registrar. Rains Hall houses the offi-
ces of the President, Dean of College
Relations, and Directors of Development,
Publications, and Public Information.
Fanning Hall houses the office of the Vice
President for Business and Finance, the
Business Office, the Purchasing Office,
and the Personnel Office.
The Institutional Research building
houses the college's computer center
and the offices of the Assistant to the
President and the Director of Computer
Services.
Other majorfacilities include: ascience
building, a gymnasium, a college activi-
ties center, and four classroom areas-
Butler Hall, Hardy Hall, Markert Hall and
Skinner Hall.
A modern indoorswimming pool and a
fine arts center with a theatre have been
added, as well as tennis courts, an ath-
letic field, and parking facilities, located
in the center of campus. Another recent
addition is the Continuing Education/
Military Science Building.
Boykin Wright Hall, a gift from Mar-
guerite Wright Hillman to the Regents of
the University System of Georgia in
memory of her late father Boykin Wright,
houses the Small Business Development
Center and the Center for the Study of
Private Enterprise. The Maxwell Alumni
House, a gift from the estate of Jefferson
Maxwell, houses the office of the Director
of Alumni Affairs.
The Forest Hills Golf Course, an 18
hole educational and recreational facility,
is operated and maintained by the Au-
gusta College Athletic Association. The
course covers over 200 acres and is lo-
cated about two miles from the main
campus. It is open year-round to stu-
dents, faculty, and staff as well as the
general public.
Reese Library
The college library is at the center of
every academic program. The Reese
Library, completed in 1977, is named in
honor of Dr. and Mrs. John T. Reese, par-
ents of Mrs. Mary Katherine Reese Pam-
plin, class of 1936. The three story build-
ing of 80,000 square feet has a seating
capacity of 1 ,000 and a shelving capacity
of 400,000 volumes. The library now has
over 260,000 volumes and microform
equivalents of more than 71 ,000 volumes.
16
The United States document depository
collection now contains over 140,000
items.
Facilities include areas for study, refer-
ence, listening, typing, and reading mi-
croforms.
Services include the circulation of
materials from the open shelf arrange-
ment and materials on reserve. Interli-
brary loan service is available for mate-
rials in other libraries. Reference service
includes data base searches from the
Georgia Information Dissemination Cen-
ter (GIDC) and the Lockheed Information
Service (LIS Dialog). The card catalog is
now being converted to Computer Origi-
nated Microfiche (COM Catalog).
In September 1980, the Learning Cen-
ter, located in Hardy Hall, became part of
the Library, providing a broad range of
audio-visual services, classroom support
services, and instructional media produc-
tion services for the college. The Learn-
ing Center offers students an opportunity
for self-paced individualized instruction
and study with a 50 carrel complex pro-
viding AV equipment and two viewing
rooms equipped for classroom participa-
tion.
Library tours and orientations are
available to classes and individuals. A
library handbook, giving an introduction
to the library and its use, is available to
each student.
Supporting Programs and
Services
Alumni Association
The association is composed of former
students, governed by an executive
board and a director, who acts as liaison
between the alumni and the college. The
association's two main goals are to ar-
range activities designed to maintain a
close relationship between alumni, class-
mates and college; and to participate in
supporting the college through gifts to
the annual fund and assistance with the
business fund drive. A complimentary
one-year active membership is given
each graduate. Other alumni achieve ac-
tive status by making annual gifts. The
alumni offices are located in the Maxwell
House.
Alumni Professor of
Business Administration
The Alumni Professorship of Business
Administration was created in 1979, and
is jointly funded by the Augusta College
Alumni Association and the Augusta Col-
lege Foundation. The Professorship was
established to aid the School of Business
Administration in recruiting and retaining
an outstanding faculty scholar or busi-
ness executive-in-residence.
Augusta College Foundation
The Augusta College Foundation was
established in 1963 to further the inter-
ests of Augusta College and to provide
support for the college in those areas not
supported by state or governmental
appropriations. The sole object and pur-
pose of the Foundation is the establish-
ment and administration of an endow-
ment fund for the benefit of Augusta
College. These funds are used for educa-
tional purposes only. Individuals or or-
ganizations who are interested in obtain-
ing more information concerning the
Foundation should contact the Office of
College Relations.
Center for the Study of
Private Enterprise
The Center for the Study of Private En-
terprise is an inter-institutional (Augusta
College, Paine College, and Medical Col-
lege of Georgia) cooperative effort be-
tween educational, business, political,
and civic leaders to promote understand-
ing and further appreciation of the Amer-
ican private enterprise system. Some of
its objectives are to establish a Chair of
Private Enterprise at Augusta College,
enrich student and public understanding
of private enterprise, improve understand-
ing of respective viewpoints of business
leaders and educators, facilitate more
effective career planning through expan-
sion of students' career awareness in
17
grades K-12 and college, strengthen
managerial capabilities in public and pri-
vate sector institutions, and promote
effective and efficient utilization and de-
livery of health services.
The Callaway Chair
The Fuller E. Callaway Professional Chair
at Augusta College was one of 40 such
chairs at 33 senior colleges and universi-
ties in Georgia created in September
1968 by the Callaway Foundation. A $10
million trust fund was established to aid
colleges in retaining superior faculty
members. Augusta College chose philos-
ophy as the field for its first endowed
chair.
The Maxwell Chair
The Grover C. Maxwell Chair of Business
Administration was established by the
three sons of Grover Cleveland Maxwell,
Sr. A $150,000 trust fund was established
to promote and encourage teaching pro-
ficiency and high scholastic attainment at
Augusta College. The Maxwell Professor
of Business Administration is selected by
the President of Augusta College with the
advice of a special committee.
Cullum Visiting Scholar Program
The Cullum Visiting Scholar program
was initiated in January 1968 following
announcement by the Cullum Founda-
tion of an annual gift to the college to
enable it to invite to its campus outstand-
ing men and women who are widely
known in their respective fields. The visit-
ing scholars provide lectures, seminars
for faculty and students, addresses to the
student body and to the public, and con-
ferences in their fields of expertise.
Continuing Education
Augusta College offers a wide variety of
short courses, conferences, lectures,
workshops, and seminars designed for
the general public.
The procedures foradmission to these
non-credit programs are administered by
the Director of Continuing Education
consistent with policies of the University
System of Georgia and Augusta College.
The Office of Continuing Education
can also design programs for business
and industry, as well as administer state
and regional conferences.
The Continuing Education Unit is
awarded for satisfactory completion of a
professional development program. Per-
manent records are maintained by the
office and transcripts are available upon
request.
For further information, call or write
the Office of Continuing Education.
Cullum Lecture Series
Augusta College offers an inter-discipli-
nary educational program referred to as
The Cullum Lecture Series. It often deals
with non-Western cultures, focusing on a
"Third World" country in the spring
through visiting scholars, films, theatrical
productions, and art exhibits. Occasion-
ally the program's format is modified to
include a study of our own culture and
society. The program is made possible by
a grant from the Cullum Foundation of
Augusta and is open to the community.
Media Services
Media Services, located in Hardy Hall,
provides Augusta College with profes-
sional film and video productions. Media
Services scripts and produces television,
films, slide-tape, and audio programs for
academic departments and schools; pro-
duces public information programs; and
supports the teaching of film and televi-
sion courses at the college.
Admissions
The Office of Admissions is anxious to
assist prospective students. Office per-
sonnel are available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, to provide gen-
eral information, applications, catalogs,
and specific information about college
programsand admissions procedures. In
addition to the availability of materials
during regular hours, the college De-
partment of Public Safety is open on
weekends and maintains a supply of col-
lege catalogs and application materials
for distribution.
Graduate applications to Augusta
College are considered on an individual
basis. After all required data have been
received, applicants will be notified by
letter of the action taken. Although the
University System of Georgia sets certain
minimum standards for admission, the
individual institutions retain the right to
impose additional requirements. Accord-
ingly, the college reserves the right to
refuse admission to any applicant who, in
its judgement, is not qualified to pursue
graduate-level work at Augusta College.
Such a decision may be based on a var-
iety of factors: social maturity, character,
or intellectual achievement as measured
by entrance examinations.
Similarly, the college reserves the right
to determine the level of admission.
Clearly, some students will meet all ad-
mission standards and will enter as regu-
lar graduate students. Other students
who fail to meet one or more of the
admission standards may be admitted as
provisional graduate students or as non-
degree students.
Application Materials
and Catalog
Candidates seeking admission to the col-
lege must file an official application for
admission with the Office of Admissions.
Applications and catalogs are free of
charge and may be requested by mail, by
telephone, or by visiting the office. The
mailing address for the Office of Admis-
sions is 2500 Walton Way (10), Augusta,
Georgia 30910. Telephone number (404)
828-3301. Students are encouraged to
visit the campus. However, an appoint-
ment is recommended if a campus tour
or interview is desired.
Application Deadline and Fee
The application form and all supporting
documents must be received by the Office
of Admissions no later than 30 days
before the beginning of the quarter in
which the applicant wishes to enroll. A
$10 nonrefundable application fee must
accompany the application.
Because of additional time required for
processing, foreign student applicants
are encouraged to apply well in advance
of the application deadline. A student
who does not register in the quarter for
which he is admitted and who wishes to
attend a later quarter must notify the
Office of Admissions at least 30 days
priortothe desired quarter of entrance. If
one year has expired since the initial
application, he must filea new application
and pay another application fee.
19
Documents Required for
Admission
It is the responsibility of the applicant to
request that documents required for ad-
mission be forwarded to the Office of
Admissions. These documents become
the property of the college and are not
returned to the applicant. Candidates are
considered when all required documents
have been received, and they are notified
of a decision by mail.
The following must be submitted to the
Office of Admissions when applying for
graduate admission:
1. A formal application and S10 appli-
cation fee.
2. Two official transcripts from each col-
lege attended. The two transcripts

register as a resident student only upon
showing that he has been domiciled in
Georgia for at least twelve months prior
to the registration date. Any period of
time during which a person is enrolled as
astudent in any educational institution in
Georgia may not be counted as a part of
the twelve months' domicile and resi-
dence herein required when it appears
that the student came into the State and
remained in the State for the primary pur-
pose of attending a school or college.
A student who is under 18 years of age
at the time he seeks to register or re-
register at the beginning of any quarter
will be accepted as a resident student
only upon his presenting evidence that
his supporting parent or guardian has
been legally domiciled in Georgia for a

diately preceding the date of registration

non-resident minor, such minor will not
be permitted to register as a resident stu-
dent until the expiration of one year from
the date of appointment, and then only
upon proper evidence that such appoint-
ment was not made to avoid payment of
the non-resident fee. If the parents or
legal guardian of a minor changes resi-
dence to another state following a period
of residence in Georgia, the minor may
continue to take courses for a period of
twelve consecutive months on the pay-
ment of resident fees. After the expiration
of the twelve months' period the student
may continue his registration only upon
payment of fees at the non-resident rate.

resident of Georgia and who is a student
in an institution of the University System
marries a non-resident of the State, the
woman will continue to be eligible to
attend the institution on payment of resi-
dent fees, provided that her enrollment is
continuous and she maintains state of
Georgia residency.
If a woman who is not a resident of
Georgia marries a man who is a resident
of Georgia, the woman will not be eligible
to register as a resident student in a Uni-
versity System institution until she has
been domiciled in the State of Georgia for
a period of twelve months immediately
preceding the date of registration.

hold assistantships that require at least
one-third time service may register as
students in the institution in which they
24
are employed on payment of resident
fees.

fray expenses associated with matricula-
tion at Augusta College should be sure to

sions for guidance as to procedures.

dents.
The students of Augusta College have
established a precedent of exemplary
behavior as members of the college and
civic communities. Individuals and
groups are expected to observe the tradi-
tion of decorum and behave in a way
which would not precipitate physical,
social, or emotional hazards to other
members of the college community. Im-
proper behavior is a breach of tradition
and inconsistent with the aims and objec-
tives of the college. Such behavior sub-

official or judicial body.

a student book exchange.
The Student Activities program is de-
signed to provide opportunities for invol-
30
vement and leadership through a broad
spectrum of activities. Members of the
Augusta College faculty serve as advisors
to the organizations.
Clarks Hill
Augusta College leases 39.5 acres of land
located approximately thirty-five miles
from the campus on the Georgia side of
the Clarks Hill reservoir. The site is being
developed for the recreational enjoyment
of the students, faculty, and staff of
Augusta College and students of the
Medical College of Georgia. Develop-
ment of the site is a student project which
is made possible through allocations of a
portion of the Augusta College and Med-
ical College student activity fees. Facili-
ties available at the Augusta College site
include a lodge, picnic area, boat launch-
ing ramp and dock, camping area, beach
and swim float. The lodge is furnished
and equipped with tables and chairs, kit-
chen supplies, dressing room areas, a
juke box, and sports equipment. A full-
time caretaker lives on the property and a
lifeguard is on duty on weekends during
the summer months.
Certain rules and regulations have
been structured for the protection of all
persons using the Clarks Hill site. Copies
of these rules and further information
may be obtained in the Office of Student
Activities.
Cultural and Entertainment Programs
A wide spectrum of cultural and enter-
tainment programs is provided for stu-
dents through the dance-concert series,
film series, and Lyceum series. Outstand-
ing members of the creative and perform-
ing arts are brought to campus in an on-
going effort to enrich the educational,
personal-social, and cultural components
of the student life.
Student Government
The Student Government Association
exists to provide a mechanism for student
input into the decision-making process of
the college, and to promote programs
and activities of interest to students.
The SGA is composed of an executive,
a legislative, and a judicial branch, as well
as a Student Union Board. The executive
branch comprises the offices of presi-
dent, vice-president, secretary, and trea-
surer, who are responsible for coordina-
tion of various committees and activities.
The Student Senate, composed of repre-
sentatives from each academic depart-
ment, serves to funnel student feelings
and make known student interests. The
Student Union Board coordinates all
campus social functions. The Student
Judicial Cabinet renders judgement in
cases referred to it by administrative offi-
cials, as well as in cases of students'
appeals of traffic citations. The Interclub
Council is incorporated into the Student
Government Constitution in the by-laws.
It comprises representatives from each of
the chartered campus organizations. The
council exists to promote coordination
for club activities.
Copies of the Student Government
Constitution are available in the Student
Government Office and the JAGUAR
student handbook.
Student Publications
The BELL RINGER is the official student
newspaper. It is published on a bi-weekly
schedule by a student staff.
WHITE COLUMNS is the college's
yearbook. It is compiled and edited by
students with the advisement of the
Associate Dean of Students.
SAND HILLS is the student literary
magazine. It is published annually by a
student staff.
JAGUAR is the student handbook. It is

ties Office.
Testing Center
The Testing Center provides a campus-
wide service to the college, its various
departments, and to individual students.
Data is gathered through testing to aid in
understanding present situations, the
setting of goals for the future, and the
determination of immediate steps that
31
need to be taken to achieve these goals.
The center ad ministers tests and invento-
ries to individuals and groups.
A wide array of personality, interest,
aptitude, achievement, and intelligence
tests and inventories are available to stu-
dents at no cost. The centeralso provides
such counseling services as relate to test-
ing areas.
The Institutional Admissions Testing
Program, the Regents Testing Program,
the University System of Georgia Basic
Skills Examinations, and other institu-
tional testing programs are administered
under the supervision of the Director of
Testing, who also schedules and con-
ducts national testing programs such as
the National Teacher Examinations. Gra-
duate Record Examination. Law School
Admission Test. Graduate Management
Admission Test. Medical College Admis-
sionTest. Miller AnalogiesTest. College-
Level Examination Program, American
College Testing Proficiency Examina-
tion Program.
Veterans' Affairs
Augusta College maintains a full-time
Office of Veterans' Affairs lOVAi to assist
veterans in maximizing their educational
experience. The OVA coordinates and or
monitors AC and VA programs, policies,
and procedures as they pertain to vet-
erans.
As students at Augusta College, vet-
erans and certain other persons may
qualify under Chapters 31 . 32. 34, or 35.
Title 38, UNITED STATES CODE, for
financial assistance from the Veterans
Administration iVAi. Eligibility for such
benefits must be established in accor-
dance with policies and procedures of the
VA. Interested persons are advised to
investigate their eligibility early in their
planning for college. Pertinent informa-
tion and assistance may be obtained from
the Augusta College Office of Veterans'
Affairs.
New or returning students should make
adequate financial provisions for one full
quarter from other sources, since pay-
ments from the VA are sometimes de-
layed.
The Office of Veterans' Affairs furnish-
es to the Veterans Administration certifi-
cations of enrollment. Eligible persons
should establish and maintain contact
with the OVA to insure their understand-
ing of and compliance with both VA and
college policy, procedure, and require-
ments, thereby insuring timely and accu-
rate receipt of benefits and progress
toward an educational objective.
Each person receiving VA education
benefits payments is responsible for in-
suring that all information affecting
his her receipt of benefits is kept current, -
and each must confer personally with the
staff in the OVA at least once each quarter
to keep his her status active and current.
Program Accessibility for
Handicapped Students
The college deals with handicapped stu-
dents on an individual basis. Hopefully,
waivers or drastic changes in the curric-
ula will not often be needed: however,
modifications in meeting existing require-
ments will be allowed according to indi-
vidual need. In orderthatindividual needs
are met, a Coordinator of Academic Pro-
grams for the Handicapped has been
designated to act as liaison between stu-
dents and faculty members, helping to
develop programs for the handicapped
as the need arises. For more information,
contact the office of the Dean of Stu-
dents.
Public Safety Services
Services provided by the Public Safety
Division include: escort service upon re-
quest, engraving of personal property,
correcting minor vehicle problems, and
most importantly, twenty-four hour po-
lice protection and first aid which have
priority over other services.
32
Academic
Regulations
The academic program of Augusta Col-
lege is administered by the School of
Business Administration, the School of
Education and the School of Arts and
Sciences, each headed by a dean. These
units, including the appropriate depart-
ments, furnish the basic organization of
the faculty and provide the framework for
the generation and maintenance of qual-
ity education in the variety of courses and
programs listed in the catalog.
The Committee on Academic Policies,
the Augusta College Curriculum Com-
mittee, and the Graduate Council serve
as the major sources for recommenda-
tions to the faculty on policies in these
areas. The faculty reserves the right to
recommend changes in curricula, and in
rules, at any time when in its judgement
such changes are in the best interest of
the student and Augusta College.
Registration at Augusta College in-
volves the student's acceptance of the
official academic regulations. The stu-
dent is expected to follow the program
outlined by his school or department and
should do sufficient planning, in consul-
tation with his faculty advisor, to avoid
scheduling difficulties which may impede
his normal academic progress.
The student should plan his program
so as to meet the core curriculum, grad-
uation, and major and minor require-
ments.
Student Records
Permanent academic records are main-
tained by the Registrar in the Office of
Student Records located on the main
floor in Payne Hall. Under the provisions
of the Family Educational Rights and Pri-
vacy Act of 1974 (often referred to as the
"Buckley Amendment"), a student attend-
ing a post-secondary educational institu-
tion may examine his permanent record
maintained by the institution to assure
the accuracy of its contents. This act also
provides that no personally identifiable
information will be released to any party
not authorized to have access to such
information without the written consent
of the student.
Unit of Credit
Augusta College is organized on the
quarter system. Each of the three quar-
ters in the regular session extends over a
period of approximately 1 1 weeks, which
includes 10 weeks of instruction.
The quarter hour is the unit of credit in
any course. It represents a recitation
period of one fifty-minute period a week
for a quarter. A course meeting five peri-
ods a week would thus give credit of 5
quarter hours when completed satisfac-
torily. For credit purposes, two laboratory
or activity periods are counted as the
equivalent of one recitation class period.
A student may not receive additional
hours of credit if he repeats a course in
which he has already earned credit.
Student Load
The normal quarterly full course load for
graduate students, or for any student
enrolled in 600 or 700 level courses, is 15
33
quarter hours. It usually will be less for
graduate student assistants.
Any exception to the 15 quarter hour
course load for graduate students must
be recommended by the student's advi-
sor, supported by the graduate coordina-
tor or departmental chairperson, and
approved by the Dean of Graduate Stu-
dies in advance. In no case will a student
enrolled in any number of graduate hours
be permitted to enroll in more than 17
quarter hours. More than 15 quarter hours
of enrollment is permitted only when the
additional one or two hours are other
than typical course work.
Augusta College Transient and
Coenrolled Students
An Augusta College student must be in
good standing and must obtain prior
approval to enroll in any and all credit
courses at any other institution as a tran-
sient or coenrolled student. This prior
approval of each course must be obtained
from the Augusta College department or
school that offers a course most compar-
able to the one that will be taken else-
where.
A student who has attempted a course
at Augusta College and received a penal-
ty grade in that course may not take that
course as a transient or coenrolled stu-
dent at another institution. (Penalty
grades include F's, and WF's in all cour-
ses, and D's, F's and WF's in English 101,
English 102 and major and minor cour-
ses).
A statement granting permission to
attend another accredited institution will
be provided by the Augusta College
Registrar after departmental or school
approval and approval of the Dean of
Graduate Studies has been obtained.
may not be earned in courses taken as an
auditor except by re-enrollmentforcredit
in, and completion of, the course with a
satisfactory grade.
An auditor is assumed to be seriously
interested in courses that he audits.
Therefore, students enrolled as auditors
are expected to attend class regularly and
perform such other tasks as may be
assigned by the instructor. Auditors who
do not attend regularly will be dropped
from the class with a grade of "W".
Course Changes
Courses may be dropped and (or) added
only upon the approval of the student's
faculty advisor. Course changes are not
to be made at the whim of the student. In
the case of the course changes, the stu-
dent must initiate an "Add-Drop" form
which can be obtained from the Regis-
trar's Office.
The last day for late registration, as
given in thecollegecalendar, shall be the
last day a student may enroll in a class.
Substitution of Courses
Each student is responsible for following
the requirements of his selected program
as specified in the bulletin and in accor-
dance with the regulations of the bulletin.
Variations in course requirements are
permitted only upon petition and the writ-
ten approval of the chairman of the de-
partment responsible for the required
course and the appropriate dean. Varia-
tions from course requirements are ap-
proved only under exceptional circum-
stances and only in cases where courses
of the same academic value and type can
be substituted.
Auditors
A student who has been admitted to
Augusta College may be permitted to
enroll in credit courses as an auditor on a
non-credit basis. However, a student may
not change his status from credit to audit
or vice versa during the course. Cre^ 1 '

Withdrawal From Class
The responsibility for initiating a with-
drawal resides with the student. It is
recommended that the student consult
with his instructorand hisacademicadvi-
sor before action is taken to withdraw
from acourse. Formsforinitiating a with-
drawal may be obtained from the Office
of Student Records. An instructor may
withdraw a student for excessive ab-
sence. (See class attendance below for
attendance policies and graduate grad-
ing system on this page for grading policy
upon withdrawal.)
Class Attendance
The resources of Augusta College are
provided for the intellectual growth and
development of the students who attend.
A schedule of courses is provided for the
students and faculty to facilitate an order-
ly arrangement of the program of instruc-
tion. The fact that classes are scheduled
is evidence that attendance is important
35
and students should, therefore, maintain
regular attendance if they are to attain
maximum success in the pursuit of their
studies.
It is recognized thatthe degree of class
attendance may vary with the student, the
professor, or the course. It is also recog-
nized that, on occasions, it may be neces-
sary for the student to be absent from
scheduled classes or laboratories for
personal reasons. On such occasions, all
matters related to the student's absences,
including the making up of work missed,
are to be arranged between the student
and the professor.
All professors will, at the beginning of
each quarter, make a clear statement to
all their classes regarding their policies in
handling absences. Professors will also
be responsible for counseling with their
students regarding the academic conse-
quences of absences from their classes
or laboratories. Students are obligated to
adhere to the requirements of each
course and of each course professor.
Students must not be absent from
announced quizzes, laboratory periods,
or final examinations unless the reasons
for the absences are acceptable to the
concerned professors. Students should
also understand thatthey are responsible
for the academic consequences of their
absences.
After the equivalent of one week of
absences from a class, regardless of
cause, the student is subject to being
dropped from the class by the instructor.
A student so withdrawn may appear be-
fore a board of review appointed by the
Graduate Council for reinstatement. In
the event a student is reinstated, he is
fully responsible for making up all work
missed while his case was pending.
Grade Changes
Any grade changes must be accom-
plished within the quarter immediately
following the quarter in which the grade
was originally reported unless the course
has been programmatically excluded
from this requirement by the dean of the
appropriate school or department chair-
man of the unit in which the course is
offered.
Student Grievances
The policy for consideration of student
grievances of an academic nature can be
found in the Augusta College Student
Handbook.
Academic Standing
Determination of academic standing is
based upon a student's cumulative grade
point average, which is computed by di-
viding the number of hours attempted in
which a grade of A, B, C, D, F, or WF has
been received into the number of grade
points earned on those hours scheduled.
An average of 3.0 (B) must be maintained
on all courses attempted in a graduate
program.
Academic Honesty
In an academic community honesty and
integrity must prevail. It must be so if the
work done and the honors awarded are to
receive their just respect. The erosion of
honesty is the academic community's
ultimate loss. The responsibility for the
practice and preservation of honesty
must be equally assumed by all of its
members.
Definition
Academic honesty is the presentation for
evaluation and credit of one's own work
and not the work of others. In general,
academic honesty excludes:
1. Cheating on an examination of any
type: giving or receiving, offering or
soliciting information on any ex-
amination. This includes the fol-
lowing:
a. Copying from another student's
paper.
b. Use of prepared materials, notes,
ortexts otherthan those specifi-
cally permitted by the instructor
during the examination.
c. Collaboration with another stu-
dent during an examination.
d. Buying, selling, stealing, solicit-
ing, ortransmitting an examina-
tion or any other material pur-
ported to be the unreleased
36
contents of an upcoming exam-
ination, or the use of any such
material.
e. Substituting for another person
during an examination or allow-
ing such substitution for one-
self.
f. Bribery of any person to obtain
examination information.
2. Plagiarism: This is the failure to
acknowledge indebtedness; it is
always assumed that the written
work offered for evaluation and
credit is the student's own unless
otherwise acknowledged. Such
acknowledgement should occur
whenever one quotes another per-
son's actual works, whenever one
appropriates another person's
ideas, opinions, or theories even if
they are paraphrased, and when-
ever one borrows facts, statistics,
or other illustrative materials unless
the information is common knowl-
edge.
3. Collusion: Collaboration (either
professional or amateur) with an-
other person in the preparation or
editing of notes, themes, reports or
other written work or in laboratory
work offered for evaluation and
credit unless such collaboration is
specifically approved in advance by
the instructor.
4. Credential misrepresentation: This
involves the use of false or mislead-
ing statements in order to gain
admission to Augusta College or to
gain employment at Augusta Col-
lege. It also involves the use of false
or misleading statements in an
effort to obtain employment or col-
lege admission elsewhere, while
one is enrolled or employed at
Augusta College.
Faculty Responsibility
It is the duty of the faculty to practice and
preserve academic honesty and to en-
courage it among the students. The in-
structor should clarify any situation
peculiar to the course that may differ
from the generally stated policy. He
should furthermore endeavor to make
explicit the intent and purpose of each
assignment so that the student may com-
plete the assignment without unintention-
ally compromising academic honesty. It
isthe responsibility of thefaculty member
to provide for appropriate supervision of
examinations.
Student Responsibility
It is the duty of the student to practice and
preserve academic honesty. If the stu-
dent has any doubt about an item or
situation, he should consult with his in-
structor.
Procedures
Any faculty member who encounters a
violation of academic honesty by a stu-
dent shall:
1 . Discreetly confront the student and
make the charges known.
2. Discuss the matter thoroughly with
the student so that each position is
clearly delineated.
3. If upon completion of this discus-
sion the faculty member feels that
punitive action stronger than an
admonition is warranted, he will
report the matterto the chairman of
the department where the alleged
violation occured.
4. Each reported violation will be re-
viewed departmentally, and if it is
clearly established that indeed a
violation of academic honesty has
occurred, a report outlining the
offense will be submitted to the
appropriate dean.
The dean shall:
1. Review each alleged violation of
academic honesty.
2. If warranted, prescribe punitive
action according to the following
guidelines:
a. First Offense: Recommend to
the instructor that the student
be withdrawn from the course
in which the violation occurred
with a grade of F. Note the viola-
tion in the dean's file; this nota-
tion would under no circum-
stances be made available as a
portion of the student's perma-
37
nent record and shall be des-
troyed upon completion of the
student's course of study,
b. Second Offense: Recommend
to the instructor that the stu-
dent be withdrawn from the
course in which the violation
occurred with the grade of F.
The second violation shall re-
sult in automatic expulsion from
Augusta College.
3. Notify the student in writing of the
action taken and clearly explain the
student's due process of appeal.
4. Notify the involved faculty member
in writing of the action taken.
5. Direct the Registrar to initiate the
proper withdrawal procedure and,
in the case of a second offense, to
enter the word "expelled" on the
student's permanent record.
6. Maintain administrative records of
all matters pertaining to violations
of academic honesty.
Appeal Procedure
Should the student desire to appeal the
decision for punitive action, he may re-
quest the office of the Dean of Students to
arrange a hearing before the Student-
Faculty Judiciary. In the event the stu-
dent is dissatisfied with the findings of the
Student-Faculty Judiciary, he may direct
his complaint in writing to the President
of Augusta College. Should he be dissat-
isfied with the President's decision, he
may apply to the Board of Regents, with-
out prejudice to his position, for a review
of the decision.
Course Numbering
Graduate courses are assigned numbers
from 500 to 799. Courses i n the 500 series,
although designed for the graduate stu-
dent who needs to satisfy prerequisite
requirements, are open to selected un-
dergraduate seniors and are designed to
prepare the student for further study.
Courses in the 600 and 700 series are
open only to graduate students with ex-
ception that by action of the Graduate
Council, post-baccualaureate students
holding degrees may be allowed to enroll
in 600 series courses. Courses with 700
numbers may have courses in the 600
series as prerequisites.
A master's student may enroll for grad-
uate credit in certain specific courses
which bear numbers from 400 to 499,
inclusively. All courses that may betaken
for graduate credit have an asterisk after
the title in the catalog course description.
No 400 level course may be used for
graduate work unless its undergraduate
enrollment is restricted to junior and
senior students.
In no case may a student include more
than fifteen quarter hours of work in
courses whose levels are less than 600 to
satisfy the sixty quarter credit hours
minimum requirement for a master's
program.
Any eligible student who wishes to
earn graduate credit in a dual-listed
course must enroll at the 600 level. No
graduate credit may be earned in any
dual-listed course if the student is en-
rolled in it at the 400 level.
The Area Teacher Education
Service (ATES)
Persons wishing to take ATES courses
should apply for admission to the college
prior to the deadline for admission or
have been formerly admitted and be in
good standing. The college makes no
prior commitment that courses taken in
the ATES program will apply toward a
degree. However, courses successfully
completed in ATES may be applied
toward a degree provided: (1) appropri-
ate graduate admission is held at the time
of enrollment in the course(s) (2) the stu-
dent has cleared all plans with his advisor
and received approval to include the
course in a planned program of study.
Course credit to be applied toward a
degree at Augusta College must betaken
under the provisions outlined under
Graduate Admission. A maximum of f if
38
teen quarter hours of ATES credit may be
applied toward a master's degree at the
college.
Students desiring degree credit should
obtain approval of theiradvisor and regis-
ter for ATES courses which are cross-
listed by Augusta College or submit
course substitution requests for other
ATES courses.
General Degree Requirements
Degrees are conferred formally at the
close of the spring quarter (in June) and
at the close of the summer quarter (in
August). Students who complete all re-
quirements for the degree by the end of
the fall or winter quarters receive degrees
in June. Unless excused in writing by the
president or the appropriate dean, degree
candidates must attend graduation exer-
cises.
A degree candidate is subject to degree
requirements in effect at the time of initial
enrollment. However, a student who is
not enrolled for two or more consecutive
years must satisfy requirements in effect
at the time of his re-admission.
A student returning to Augusta Col-
lege, after having transferred to another
institution for two or more quarters, must
comply with degree requirements in ef-
fect at time of re-admission.
Master's Degree Requirements
Admission Policies
For admission to graduate study the
applicant must have completed require-
ments for the bachelor's degree in a
regionally accredited college with a grade
point average of not less than 2.5 on a 4.0
scale and attained satisfactory scores on
the Graduate Management Admission
Test, Graduate Record Examination Apti-
tude Test, or National Teacher Examina-
tion, Weighted Common Examinations
(WCET), as appropriate. The score must
not be more than five years old. If the
applicant's undergraduate major was not
in the proposed field of study or if neces-
sary preparation has not otherwise been
completed, the school or department of-
fering the graduate program may stipu-
late additional admission prerequisites.
Letters of recommendation and trans-
cripts should be forwarded to the office
of the Director of Admissions.
Those who fail to meet one or more of
the standards required for admission or
who do not wish to pursue a degree pro-
gram may be admitted under conditions
specified at the time of admission by the
school dean or department chairman or
the school or department coordinator of
the graduate program and the Dean of
Graduate Studies, subject to the approval
of the Graduate Council. (The school
dean, department chairman, or school or
department coordinator refers to the
school or department in which the stu-
dent plans to take the primary concentra-
tion.)
Advisement
Upon admission to graduate study forthe
master's degree each student will be
assigned an advisor by his school dean or
department chairman. The preferences
of the student for a particular advisor
should be considered. Prior to the com-
prehensive examinations each student
will be assigned an advisory committee.
This committee will ordinarily consist of
the student's advisor, at least one other
member of the graduate faculty from the
school or department of specialization,
and at least one other graduate faculty
member outside that school or depart-
ment.
Admission to Programs
and Candidacy
An application for admission to candi-
dacy for a master's degree should be
submitted to the Dean of Graduate Stu-
dies not earlier than the completion of
fifteen quarter hours of satisfactory grad-
uate work, and not later than the first
week of the final quarter in which the stu-
dent is to be enrolled. Provisional gradu-
39
ate students must petition the Dean of
Graduate Studies, through their academ-
ic advisors, to be admitted to a particular
course of study leading to a master's
degree on or before the time they com-
plete fifteen quarter hours of admissible
graduate credit. In any case, no more
than 15 quarter hours of graduate credit
earned prior to the student's being ac-
cepted as a regular graduate student may
be counted toward a graduate degree
program.
To be admitted to candidacy, a student
must have satisfactory test scores, accep-
table quality graduate work, classifica-
tion as a regular graduate student, and
the approval of his school or major de-
partment. Admissibility to candidacy is
determined by the Graduate Council.

quirements for admission to candidacy.
Required Hours
For those master's programs which re-
quire a thesis, the minimum number of
hours for graduation is forty-five quarter
hours plus fifteen quarter hours credit for
theses. Thirty of these credit hours must
be in the major field. For those master's
programs which do not require a thesis,
sixty hours is the minimum, with a min-
imum of forty credit hours in the major
field.
In compliance with the University Sys-
tem of Georgia policy, a minimum of one-
half of the hours required for the degree
must be earned in residence. A maximum
of one-half of the hours required for the
degree may be earned in courses offered
off campus, including courses offered
through the Area Teacher Education
Services.
The non-thesis Master of Science pro-
gram for students who major in psychol-
ogy requires 15 quarter hours of credit for
PSY 696 (Internship/Extemship), and it is
recommended also that the student ac-
quire professional competence in his
chosen area of specialization either
through the internship or other appro-
priate experience.
Residence
No more than fifteen quarter hours of
credits or their equivalents can be trans-
ferred from another institution. The stu-
dent must be registered in the college
during the quarter in which he completes
his requirements for graduation. The total
number of hours to be transferred must
be recommended by the school or de-
partment offering the degree program.
Time Limit
All work including the thesis and the-
comprehensive examinations must be com-
pleted within a six-year period. This
period includes work accepted for trans-
fer and accepted through ATES.
Language Requirements
Each department or school offering a
major in the M.S. degree program will
provide in its core requirements for an
appropriate research tool. Examples of
such tools would include one or more
courses in computer science, research
methodology, or statistics, or a means of
measuring reading competency in a for-
eign language. If applicable, the Depart-
ment of Languages and Literature will
approve and, if appropriate, administer
the examinations which measure lan-
guage reading competency.
Thesis
A thesis may be required for the M.S.
degrees. The thesis must meet the stand-
ards set by the Graduate Council. Any
student following the thesis option will be
guided in his thesis work by his advisory
committee. When appropriate the student
must file three typewritten copies of the
thesis (original and two carbons) signed
by the advisor and the Dean of Graduate
Studies with the Office of Graduate Stu-
dies not later than two weeks prior to the
date of graduation. (The Graduate Coun-
cil may require these theses to be bound
40
at the student's expense). One copy at
least should be permanently filed in the
library.
A non-thesis option is applicable to the
Master of Science degree. The non-thesis
option is departmental; it is not an indi-
vidual's option except as departmentally
approved. The MBA and the MED de-
grees do not require theses.
Comprehensive Examination
Each student is required to take a com-
prehensive examination which is oral
and/or written at the discretion of the
school or department. The examination
covers all work prescribed by the stu-
dent's program and is administered by his
advisory committee. An outside member
of the graduate faculty will be present for
the evaluation of the student via compre-
hensive examination and/or the defense
of the thesis. This representative of the
Graduate Council shall be from a differ-
ent school or department than that of the
student. The student must be registered
at the time of his examination.
Application for Graduation
The application must be completed and
filed with the Dean of Graduate Studies
no later than the mid-term date of the
quarter preceding the final quarter of

Specialist in Education
The Specialist in Education degree is a
self-contained degree program. It pro-
videsadvanced study for those preparing
for positions which call for a higher level
of competence and specialization than
that of the master's degree, but without
the heavy emphasis on research of the
doctor's degree.
The goal of the program is to add depth
and breadth to the skills and knowledge
focused upon in the student's Master of
Education program. The objectives of
this further study are to provide the stu-
dent with opportunities to become more
proficient in teaching strategies, program
development, leadership roles, scholarly
investigation, and an academic area.
The School of Education offers a pro-
gram of study for the Specialist in Educa-
tion degree with majors in early childhood
education; middle grades education;
reading education; secondary education
with teaching fields in English, mathe-
matics and social sciences; special edu-
cation; and administration and supervi-
sion.
To be eligible for six-year certification,
the student must have three years of
acceptable school experience.
The program of study will be designed
by the major professor with the advice
and approval of the student's advisory
committee. The program will consist of a
minimum of 45 quarter hours of study at
the graduate level beyond the master's
degree. Each student's program will be
planned in such a way that the master's
program and the specialist in education
program together will satisfy the follow-
ing minimum requirements:
Area "A" - Psychological and/or Socio-
logical Foundations (minimum of 10
quarter hours)
Area "B" - Curriculum, Methods, or
Problems of Teaching (minimum of 15
quarter hours)
Area "C" - Subject matter or content
(minimum of 50 quarter hours)
Area "D" - Research (minimum of 10
quarter hours)
In order for graduate work taken after
January 1, 1977, to be eligible for inclu-
sion in a program of study, it must have
been taken after the student's admission
as a prospective candidate for the Spe-
cialist in Education degree. The work
earned in non-degree study categories
such as post baccalaureate or post-
graduate may not be applied to programs
of study leading to the Specialist in Edu-
cation degree.
Appeals
Students denied admission to the Ed.S.
program may submit a written request to
the Dean of Graduate Studies for review
of their application by the Specialist in
Education appeals committee. The com-
mittee will require the appealing student
to submit additional evidence to include
satisfactory completion of a comprehen-
sive written exam. Additional evidence
may be submitted by the student and the
institution and could include scores on
other standardized tests and records of
exemplary academic and professional
achievement.
Advisement
Upon admission to graduate study forthe
Specialist in Education degree, a stu-
dent's advisory committee will be assign-
ed. The committee shall consist of the
student's major professor assigned by
the Dean of the School of Education and
two other graduate faculty selected by
the student in consultation with the major
professor.
The major professor, with the advice
and approval of the student's advisory
committee, shall plan the program with
due regard to the data available from a
diagnostic appraisal of the student's
strengths and weaknesses in the area of
specialized preparation. The diagnostic
appraisals of educational needs will be
based on analyses of records of the stu-
dent's preparation and experience, re-
sults of routine and special examinations,
and interview data. The advisory commit-
57
tee may require the student to undergo
such additional examinationsand apprai-
sals and to furnish such additional data
relative to his competence as may seem
appropriate in each case.
