COLLEGE BULLETIN CATALOGUE ISSUE

For the one hundred fiftieth year of service LaGrange College presents this bulletin.
LaGrange College is a four-year, liberal arts college. Its objective is Christian education
for Christian living. Its purpose is the development of social and mental poise for citizen-
ship and the faithful performance by the individual student of present duties in preparation
for future service in home, church, community, state, and nation.

Prevailing conditions add emphasis to the significance of an educational program de-
signed to prepare students to live worthily in such a day as this, and to transmit to suc-
ceeding generations of college men and women the priceless heritage of Christian culture.

LaGrange College admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all
the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to

Philosophy of Education
at LaGrange College

The dynamic of modern life is change. Survival for the individual psychological,
social, and economic demands adaptability to life patterns which are altering so rapidly
as to be obsolete by the time they become familiar. The institutions of higher learning
which hope to contribute to the preparing of human beings to meet successfully the chal-
lenges and the ordeals of a change-oriented society must necessarily be directed toward
flexibility and bold experiment.

LaGrange College, a church-related Liberal Arts college reaffirms its commitment to
the concept of educational based on a proven heritage of knowledge and wisdom of the
past and based on the values of an active Christianity. It recognizes also the necessity for
revitalizing these bases to meet present-day needs, on the local, state, and national level.

The college must be the diagnostic center of society; it must examine, criticize, draw
tentative, not dogmatic, conclusions. It must be the creative center of society as well,
finding new directions, both human and technological. It must prepare the student to earn
his living in a highly technological society; more important, it must equip him with the
tools of learning for adjustment to new situations which cannot even with exactness be
predicted, rather than merely endowing him with a set of fixed and final notions. In the
increasingly technological and dehumanized society, it must preserve the concept of the
significance of the individual human being.

LaGrange College believes that as a Christian Liberal Arts college, it can most suc-
cessfully achieve these aims through an application of the principles of its commitment
in a program designed to experiment boldly with new techniques of student involvement
in the learning process, new methods of evaluation of individual students' achievements
prior to the college level, new approaches to curricula, and new programs which go
beyond the conventional areas hallowed by the sanction of time as the rigid limit of the
liberal arts college. Our aim is to prepare the student in the most effective program
possible for assuring that he is "at home" in any environment, however alien, with a
security based on a sense of constancy in the midst of change.

General Information

Historical Sketch

During his visit to the United States in 1824-25, Major General Gilbert du Motier,
Marquis de Lafayette came to Georgia. The last living member of General George Wash-
ington's staff, he was greeted in Savannah by Governor George M. Troup. So great was
the impression of the visitor upon the nation that some fifty towns and counties were
named for him. In 1828, at the suggestion of Julius C. Alford, the town of LaGrange,
Georgia, was chartered in his honor and named for his estate, the Chateau de LaGrange.
The county was named for Governor Troup.

Founded in 1831, LaGrange Female Academy became in 1847, the LaGrange Female
Institute with authority to grant degrees. In 1851, the name was changed to LaGrange
Female College. In 1856, it became the property of the Georgia Conference of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, South, and later the North Georgia Conference. The name was
changed to LaGrange College in 1934, becoming officially coeducational in 1953. It is
an institution of The United Methodist Church.

Location

The town of LaGrange has a population of 28,000 in the heart of a progressive indus-
trial area. Nearby are Callaway Gardens, the Warm Springs Foundation and Franklin D.
Roosevelt's Little White House. The West Point Dam on the Chattahoochee River pro-
vides one of the largest lakes in the region, with waterfronts and marina within the city
limits of LaGrange.

Academic Standing

As a coeducational, four-year, liberal arts college, LaGrange College is fully accred-
ited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, approved by the Methodist
University Senate, and has membership in the National Association of Independent Col-
leges and universities, the National Association of Methodist Colleges, the Georgia As-
sociation of Colleges, The American Alumni Council, the Georgia Foundation for Inde-
pendent Colleges, and the Association of Private Colleges and Universities in Georgia.
The Georgia State Board of Education, which confers professional certificates upon col-
lege graduates meeting requirements in elementary or secondary education, has awarded
highest approval to LaGrange College's program of teacher education.

The National League for Nursing, the officially recognized agency for associate degree
nursing programs by the Council on Postsecondary Accreditation, has awarded (highest)
accreditation to LaGrange College's nursing program.

Change of Regulations

avail themselves of cultural opportunities in Atlanta and Columbus.

Endowed Lectureships

in life is the simple faith of an honest man."

Student Responsibility

Responsibility for maintenance of high standards and honorable conduct in academic

administration of the College.

LaGrange College students are expected at all times to conduct themselves as ladies
and gentlemen in their actions, manners, and dress so as to reflect the high standards and
ideals of the College. To this end each student, upon enrollment at LaGrange College,
signs the following pledge:

In recognition of the obligations and privileges of membership in the student body
of LaGrange College, I hereby agree to obey all rules and regulations of the Col-
lege; to respect and to cooperate with its constituted authorities; to conduct myself
honorably; and at all times to live in such a manner as to reflect credit upon myself,
my family, and the College. I realize that failure to comply with this pledge subjects
me to disciplinary action .

A student whose conduct indicates that he or she is not in sympathy with the ideals and
standards of the College or who seems unable to profit from its program may be asked to
withdraw. In such cases the judgment of the administrative officers is sufficient.

Student Conduct

LaGrange College has high standards of conduct. Drinking, lying, cheating, and steal-
ing are not countenanced. In offenses involving issues of honor, the Judicial Council of
the Student Government Association shall determine involvement; the Judicial Councils
recommendations on the above issues are, in all instances, referred to the President of the

Student Affairs 9

the use of intoxicants or drugs off campus, or at any off-campus activities of student
social organizations. The failure on the part of the members of such an organization, or
any of its guests, in any of its activities, duly to observe this principle can result in
disciplinary action against the organization, as well as its individual members or student-
guests.

Where the offense is one of serious social misconduct, the Dean of Students has the
authority for disciplinary action.

In matters pertaining to infractions of standards of integrity in the academic area, the
Academic Dean has authority.

The Student Government Association, based on the authority granted by the College
Administration, exists to serve as a medium for student expressions, to coordinate cam-
pus activities, to promote better citizenship, to cooperate with the community, and to
serve LaGrange College. As a service organization, the drafting, printing, and enforce-
ment of student rules and regulations are a primary responsibility of the Student Govern-
ment Association. Although office-holding in the Student Government Association is
restricted by specified scholastic standards, as a democratic organization, the Student
Government Association includes all members of the student body.

Matters pertaining to the Student Government and student affairs are under the general
direction of the Dean of Students.

The Student Government Association has three branches. An executive council, under
the direction of officers elected by campus- wide balloting, coordinates and regulates all

College Student Aid Program as part of their financial assistance. Assignements are all
on-campus with department and administrative offices.

Local businesses employ students in part-time jobs. Such employment is usually ar-
ranged by the student and not the College.

Admissions

It is the aim of LaGrange College to admit those students who demonstrate that they
can benefit from a liberal arts education. In the selection of students, careful attention is
given to the academic ability, character, health, and personality of each candidate.

Procedure for Applying for Admission

An application for admission should be submitted when the student decides he would
like to attend LaGrange College. The application should be completed at least one month
prior to the beginning of the quarter in which the entrance is desired. Applicants may
enroll any quarter.

3. High school transcript 3. Transcripts of all previous college work

4. SAT or ACT scores (transfers with fewer than 45 quarter hours

An applicant will be notified as soon as the Admissions Committee has reached a
decision. A student's acceptance is tentative, pending satisfactory completion of work in
progress. LaGrange College must receive notification of successful completion of such
work before acceptance is final.

For dormitory students, a Health Form and a $50.00 Key-Damage fee are required.
The Room Key-Damage fee is refundable if the student withdraws or when the student
graduates, provided there are not charges against the student at that time.

Students interested in LaGrange College are invited to visit the campus and may sched-
ule an appointment by contacting the Admissions Office. The telephone number is
404-882-2911.

Housing Requirements

LaGrange College is a residential college. Students not living at home or with relatives
are expected to live in the dormitories, unless granted permission in writing to do other-
wise. Students may live off campus at the beginning of the quarter after their twenty-first
birthday or at the beginning of the first quarter of their senior year. There are no housing
facilities on campus for married couples.

Students occupying single rooms pay extra per quarter depending on the dormitory in
which they reside. Exception is made only if, due to an unequal number of students,
there is no roommate available.

Academic Admission Requirements

Admission to the Freshman Class: Prior to enrolling, an applicant is expected to
complete requirements for graduation from an approved high school.

Preference is given to applicants who have had strong academic preparation in high
school. A minimum of 1 1 high school units must be within the areas of English, Social
Studies, Mathematics, and Science. The following subjects are required or recom-
mended.

English Four units required

Science Two units required; three units recommended

Social Studies Three units required

College Preparatory Mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, etc.) Two units

required; three units recommended
Foreign Language Two units recommended

Scores from either the SAT (administered by the College Entrance Examination Board)
or ACT (administered by the American College Testing Program) are required of all
freshman applicants. Test results should normally be sent to LaGrange College in Novem-
ber, December, or January of the last year in high school.

Mature students with an irregular educational background may qualify for admission
by achieving satisfactory scores on the tests of General Educational Development, High
School Level.

Early Admission: Early admission is possible for students who will have completed
the junior year of high school. To qualify, a student must have a B + or better high school
average in his academic courses, have ten of the eleven prescribed units, and have a total
of fifteen units. Also to qualify, a student must have a minimum score on the College
Board SAT of 1050 combined or a composite score of 25 on the ACT. A minimum of
500 on the Verbal SAT or a minimum of 24 in the English subject area of the ACT is
desirable. An interview is required of all early admission students.

Joint Enrollment: Recognizing that there is an increasing number of high school stu-
dents beginning their twelfth grade who need only one or two academic units to graduate
and who very often lack sufficient challenge, LaGrange College has adopted a policy for
Joint Enrollment at both the College and the student's high school. To be eligible, a
student must meet the clear-accept standard of the Admission policy and be recommended
in writing by the proper authority at the student's high school.

On-Trial Program: This program is for applicants who are unable to qualify for regu-
lar admission to LaGrange College, but who appear to have the potential to succeed. All
courses taken are for full credit. Students in this program must earn a grade point average
of 1 .0 during the first quarter or in the first 15 hours of college work. Further information
is available from the Director of Admissions.

Transfer Students: A student who has been in attendance at another institution may
apply for transfer to LaGrange College if he is eligible to return to that institution at the
time of entry to LaGrange College. Normally, transfer students who have the A. A. De-
gree or an equivalent degree from an accredited junior college will be exempt from all
LaGrange College General Requirements. A student may be accepted on probation under
the standard probation regulations. All records, including transcripts of all college work
attempted, must be complete before the student is admitted to LaGrange College. Appli-
cants may enroll at the beginning of any quarter.

Administrative Regulations 21

Transient Students: Students currently enrolled in good standing at another college,
may enroll at LaGrange College as transient students. Approval of course work must be
authorized by the primary institution on the Application for Transient Status which is
available from the Admissions Office.

Special Students: Students not working toward a degree may register as special stu-
dents in any course for which they have the necessary prerequisites. An application for
Special Student Status may be obtained through the Admissions Office. Students classed
as Special Students may become Regular Students by meeting requirements for regular
admission.

Readmission Students: Following an absence from LaGrange College of one or more
quarters, other than the Summer Quarter, any student who decides to return must submit
an Application for Readmission. This form is available from the Admissions Office.

Credit-by-Examination and Exemption

Students may be eligible for credit and/or exemption in certain areas through the Col-
lege Level Examination Program (CLEP) and other recognized testing procedures.

Credit through United States Armed Forces Institute and Ser-
vice Schools

Courses taken through The United States Armed Forces Institute and other recognized
military educational programs are accepted in accordance with the policy governing trans-
fer work when presented on official transcripts from accredited institutions. Fifteen
quarter hours of elective credit will be allowed for military service credit, including
USAFI correspondence courses and military service school courses as recommended by
the American Council on Education. One activity course in Physical Education, up to a
maximum of 3, will be waived for each two months served in the Armed Forces; a
corresponding reduction will be made in the total number of hours required for the de-
gree.

Forum

In keeping with the concept of a Liberal Arts Education, Forum is intended to acquaint
LaGrange College students with a broad spectrum of ideas from the many disciplines. A
maximum of three quarter hours in Forum may be earned by any student toward gradua-
tion. Included in the Forum are such various activities as lectures and Fine Arts events
on the hill and in town.

Each authorized Forum program is designated as a unit. Five units are required for
one-half quarter hour credit; only two units per quarter are allowed in any given disci-
pline. Unused units may be carried over from one quarter to another. Since this is an
academic matter, the Forum program and Forum credit is administered through the office
of the Academic Dean.

work with a degree potential, achievable in a shorter period of time, is a part of their
career orientation: (3) mature people who desire college-level work for life fulfillment
and need definite objectives as motivation: and (4) any employed person who seeks spe-
cific learning opportunities for career advancement.

Requirements for Bachelor Degrees

LaGrange College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree and the Bachelor of Business
Administration degree. The requirements for these degrees call for a four year program.
The unit of work is the quarter hour. This means one class-meeting each week for a
quarter. A course calling for five class meetings a week for a quarter has a value of five
quarter hours.

The minimum work required for graduation is 185 quarter hours and a 2.0 quality-
point average overall, as well as in all course work taken at LaGrange College. To be
eligible for the degree, a student must have earned a cumulative average of 2.0 or better
and, must make application for the degree before the beginning of his final quarter. A
student who fails to earn a degree in sixteen full quarters or the equivalent may be denied
further registration.

A minimum of 15 quarter hours meets the academic load requirement for a full-time
student. The maximum full load is 17 quarter hours; anything beyond is considered an
overload. No student is permitted to enroll for more than 21 hours in any one quarter.

Quality points are earned as follows: A, 4; B, 3; C, 2; D, 1; F, 0. The quality-point
average is computed by dividing the total quality points earned by the total hours at-
tempted. If a student has received credit for a course and repeats that course, he receives
no additional credit towards the degree. In computing the student's average, hours at-
tempted and quality points are counted on both attempts.

Not more than 95 quarter hours of credit earned at a junior college are counted toward
the degree. No credit is granted toward the degree for course work taken at a junior
college after a student has attained junior standing. A transfer student is not given credit
toward graduation for any Ds earned elsewhere until he has validated them at LaGrange
College. One hour of B earned at LaGrange College validates one hour of D, and one
hour of A earned at LaGrange College validates two hours of D.

The last 60 hours of credit, in a minimum of 4 quarters, must be earned in residence at
LaGrange College. During his last 6 quarters and last 90 hours of resident course work,
a student may, however, upon obtaining prior written approval from his academic adviser
and the Academic Dean, be permitted to enroll at another four-year college for not more
than one full quarter, and not more than fifteen quarter hours of course work. For the
purpose of meeting the residence requirements, credit earned in this manner will be con-
sidered as residence credit. Credit totaling 10 hours or more earned in this way during
the last 90 hours or final 6 quarters precludes the student's being granted credit for any
course work taken by extension or by correspondence during the period.

Any regularly enrolled LaGrange College student who desires to take course work for
credit by extension or by correspondence must obtain prior approval in writing from his
academic adviser and from the Academic Dean. Such extension or correspondence credit
may in no case exceed 10 hours; however, not more than 5 hours earned in this manner
may be applied toward the fulfillment of the General Requirements of LaGrange College.
Any course or courses so taken must be completed before the beginning of the student's
final quarter, in order to be graduated that quarter.

Normally, a student is not permitted to repeat as a transient at another institution a
course in which an unsatisfactory grade has been received at LaGrange College.

A student is classified as a freshman if he has earned fewer than 45 hours of credit. A
student is classified as a sophomore if he has earned at least 45 hours of credit and fewer
than 90. To be classed as a junior, a student must have earned at least 90 hours of credit

30 LaGrange College

and fewer than 135 hours. A student is classified as a senior upon having earned 135
hours of credit.

No grade below C in any course above 100-level may be applied toward a major.

Grades and Credits

The definitions of grades given at LaGrange College are as follows:

A -superior

B -above average

C -average

D -below average

F -failing

I -incomplete. This grade is assigned in case a student is doing satisfactory work but
for some reason beyond his control has been unable to complete the work during
that quarter. This deferment must be given written approval in advance by the
instructor and the Academic Dean.

N -no credit or non-credit

W -withdrawn passing. Normally, a grade of W will not be assigned after midquarter.

U -withdrawn failing. The grade of U is indicated in computation of grade point av-
erage.

O -penalty failing. This grade is given for a breach of honor and is computed in grade
point average.

T -audit withdrawn

A student may register for a course on a non-credit basis for which he pays full tuition.
If the student desires to have a grade assigned, he must fulfill all course requirements.

A student may audit a course by paying the audit fee. All requests for audit courses
must be approved in writing by the instructor and Academic Dean. No new freshman
student may audit any couse during the first quarter of residence at LaGrange College.

An / is a temporary grade. Normally it must be removed by the date indicated in the
Academic Calendar. Failure to remove an / by the date set automatically makes the grade
an F. A grade other than /. once submitted, may not be changed by an instructor except
with the formal approval of the Academic Advisory Council, within the next quarter.

Grades are assigned and recorded for each course at the end of each quarter. Formal
reports of grades arc also issued at the same time. Transcripts are withheld for any student
who is under financial obligation to the College.

Graduation Requirement

A student who enters LaGrange College under a given catalogue will be graduated
under the requirements o\' that catalogue. If a student withdraws and re-enters more than
four years later, he will graduate under the requirements of the catalogue in effect at the
time of his re-entry.

General Requirements for the Bachelor of Arts Degree

All students are required to meet the General Requirements listed below \n\ changes

ulty. (Normally, transfer students who have the A. A. degree or an equivalent degree from
an accredited junior college are exempt from all LaGrange College General Require-
ments). A student is expected to complete as many of these requirements as possible
during the first two academic years. A student classified as a freshman must schedule at
least 10 hours of General Requirements each quarter. Other students who have not com-
pleted General Requirements must schedule at least 5 hours each quarter until they have
completed these requirements. Any exception must be initiated by the adviser on the
Academic Petition form and approved by the Academic Dean.

Each student must select 60 quarter hours from at least seven of the eight areas listed
below. At least one course must be selected from each of the seven areas chosen, and no
more than three may be chosen as General Requirements from any area. After the requi-
site 60 hours of General Requirements have been met, other courses from the General
Requirements may be elected. Courses designated by a + are beginning courses; a begin-
ning course must be taken in each area chosen.

Other Requirements

Successful completion of courses in basic English skills (English 101, 102) by the end
of sophomore year is required of all students seeking a Bachelor's degree from LaGrange
College. Students receive 10 quarter hours of credit for successful completion, but this
credit may not be used to satisfy any part of the 60 quarter hour General Requirements of
the College. English 101 may be exempted only by those students who have scored 600
or above on the verbal component of the SAT examination or its equivalent. Transfer
students will be advised of the application or non-application of this requirement to their
particular situation.

Each student is required to earn 3 quarter hours in Physical Education unless excused.

The student who plans to enter a professional school upon completion of his college
requirements should choose a major in accordance with normal procedure. He will en-
counter no difficulty in completing the work prescribed for entrance into professional
studies while satisfying requirements for a bachelor of arts degree. The prospective
professional student should inform his adviser of his plans in order that all prescribed
work may be scheduled.

Although it is possible for a student in some instances to fulfill certain pre-professional
requirements in less than four years, most professional schools give preference to appli-
cants who have completed requirements for a bachelor's degree. However, a student who
plans to fulfill minimum requirements for admission to a professional school must, during
his enrollment at LaGrange College, satisfy the General Requirements which apply to all
students.

Students of outstanding ability who, after careful planning, are accepted for medical
college upon completion of three years of undergraduate study may be granted the A.B.
degree upon completion of the first year of medical study. This requires the prior approval

Academic Procedures

Registration and Academic Advisers

All students must register in advance on the dates specified. Failure to register on the
proper dates will subject the student to a $20 late-registration fee. All registration proce-
dures for all quarters are under the direction of the Academic Dean.

Each student is assigned to a faculty adviser, who assists the student in planning an
academic program. However, the ultimate responsibility of meeting all requirements rests
with the individual student.

A student interested in a particular major should inform his general adviser in order
that special prerequisite courses for the major may be scheduled. A major maybe formally
declared anytime after the student has earned 15 hours of credit. The student must declare
his major in writing to the Registrar by the time he has earned 75 quarter hours of credit.
The student will then be assigned to an adviser in the department in which he will major.
A student planning to pursue a program in Teacher Education must make application in
writing to the head of the Department of Education at least by the time he declares his
major.

Withdrawal

To withdraw from any course a student must confer with his instructor, his adviser, and
the Academic Dean. Failure of a student to withdraw officially through the office of the
Academic Dean normally will result in the assignment of a U. Normally, a student who
withdraws before midquarter will be assigned a W; after mid- quarter a U. This procedure
applies also to withdrawal from the College. A student who wishes to withdraw from the
College must confer with the Academic Dean and the Dean of Students.

Academic Probation Regulations

Students are placed on academic probation when the quality of work is such that prog-
ress toward graduation is in jeopardy. The purpose of probation is warning; it is not
penalty. Students on probation and their parents shall be notified and the regulations
governing probation shall be called to their attention.

Students in the freshman class (fewer than 45 quarter hours of credit) who fail to
maintain a 1.3 cumulative grade-point average at the end of any quarter for which they
are enrolled will be placed on academic probation. For sophomores (fewer than 90 quarter
hours of credit) a 1 .65 cumulative grade-point average is required; for juniors (fewer than
135 quarter hours) and seniors (135 quarter hours and beyond) a 2.0 cumulative grade-
point average is required. In most cases, students have three quarters to remove their
probationary status. Failure to do so makes these students subject to suspension or exclu-
sion.

Students are also subject to suspension or exclusion for failure to earn at least five
quarter hours of academic credit in any quarter, or for other valid academic reasons. In
the case of part-time students, the extent of application of these regulations will be at the
discretion of the Academic Dean. Normally, all applications of the regulations will be
based upon a fifteen quarter-hour academic load.

Academic Procedures 35

Class Attendance Regulations

A student is expected to attend all classes, including labs, for all courses for which he
is registered. The student is solely responsible for accounting to his instructor for any
absence. An instructor may recommend action by the Absence Committee and the Aca-
demic Dean to drop from class with a grade of W or U any student whose absences are
interfering with satisfactory performance in the course.

Acceleration

Students desiring to accelerate their college program may complete requirements in
less than four academic years. This may be accomplished by attending summer schools
and/or by taking an academic overload. Permission to take an overload in any quarter is
granted only to those students who have earned at least an average of B (3.0) for the
preceding quarter, except that a student may take an overload during one quarter of his
senior year without respect to grade-point average.

Academic Honors

Upon graduation, students who have been in residence at LaGrange College for at least
their last ninety hours and

1. have attained a quality point average of 3.50 to 3.74 may be granted the bachelor
degree cum laude or

2. have attained a quality point average of 3.75 to 3.89 may be granted the bachelor
degree magna cum laude or

3. have attained a quality point average of 3.90 to 4.0 may be granted the bachelor
degree summa cum laude.

At the end of each academic quarter, students who have maintained a 3.60 quality
point average of a minimum of 15 quarter hours of work will be placed on the Dean's
List.

Special Programs

There are several categories of special programs, described below. These are designed
to meet special interests and special needs. In no case are they intended to be used as
substitutes for any regular course offerings. Also, concurrent enrollment in any two or
more of these special programs is discouraged.

Independent Study

In certain departments independent study courses are offered. These courses are limited
to upperclass major and minor students who have completed at least two thirds of their
particular major or minor program, and who wish to pursue a special problem or course
of reading beyond that taken up in any formal course and lying within the capabilities of
the library and laboratories. In order to be eligible for independent study the student must
have at least a 3.0 average in the specific field. Total credit which can be earned through

36 LaGrange College

independent study will not be more than 10 quarter hours. Written permission to enroll in
such a course must be obtained from the instructor, the head of the department concerned,
and the Academic Dean. These courses carry the numbers 495 and 496.

Senior Honors Program

Seniors with a cumulative quality point average of 3.5 or above may apply for partic-
ipation in the Honors Program which is available in certain departments. This program
carries the course number 499, with 5 quarter hours of credit in each participating de-
partment, with the designation "Honors Course." Applications must be submitted in writ-
ing to the Academic Dean.

Religion and Philosophy

The Department of Religion and Philosophy has a twofold purpose: to afford students
the opportunity to study and investigate the role of religion in human existence: and to
provide, for those interested, a basis for further study and for selection of positions in
church-related vocations. The Department is aware of the increasing demand that pre-
theological students be prepared to enter seminary at the graduate level in their studies
and at the same time have a broad cultural orientation. In addition, the Department is
aware of the need for an interdisciplinary preparation for persons interested in Christian
Education. To this end the Department offers a major in Christian Education which ma\
be coordinated with a major in Elementary Education.

For those persons primarily concerned with religious subjects there is a two-year pro-
gram of religious studies for which an A. A. degree may be earned. For those who desire
to continue their education through the study of religion, a program of Continuing Edu-
cation is ottered. Units earned may later be converted into college credit it the proper
steps are taken. Courses designed tor the Continuing Education Units represent, in the
main, subdivisions of the live hour courses.
