SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 17
INTRODUCTION TO SAVANNAH STATE
COLLEGE
Savannah State College, a unit of the University System of Georgia,
is a college of applied arts and sciences, teacher education, business,
and vocational technology.
The general purposes of the College are to serve the needs and in-
terests of its clientele in such a manner as to enable them growingly
to recognize, face and solve their personal, social and vocational prob-
lems; to provide optimum opportunity for the development of per-
sonal potentialities in terms of each individual's unique personality
and possible contribution to a democratic society.
More specifically, the College aims: (1) to assist students in de-
veloping the kind of abilities, skills, knowledge, attitudes, habits, and
traits of character that will enable them to earn a good living in a
socially useful livelihood, or to pursue a graduate program of pro-
fessional or technical education; (2) to help them develop well-
rounded, wholesome, spiritually enriched and mature lives; and (3)
to enable them to become effective participants in a democratic
society.
The total curricula offerings, the out-of-class activities, the guid-
ance students receive from pre-college counselling to placement after
graduation, and the faculty selected to direct the College program
are planned in terms of attaining these purposes.
A broad scope of activities designed to accomplish these goals
includes :
(a) Curricular offerings in four instructional divisions: Agricul-
ture, Arts and Sciences, Home Economics, and Trades and Industries.
(b) Out-of-class activities such as dramatics, debating, band and
orchestra, glee clubs, quartets, varsity and intra-mural athletics, artists
and lectures series, student newspaper, varied social activities, church
and vesper services, Y M C A and Y W C A.
(c) Conferences, forums, institutes, lectures, men's council, wom-
en's council, student participation in the planning of activities and
the government of the institution.
With the guidance of faculty members, personnel workers and ad-
ministrators, each student is able to select from these offerings a
program of his own choice that will prepare him to pursue success-
fully a socially useful livelihood, to live a spiritually enriched life,
and to participate effectively in a democratic society.
18 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
GENERAL INFORMATION
By an Act of the General Assembly on November 26, 1890, the
State of Georgia "established in connection with the State University,
and forming one of the departments thereof, a school for the educa-
tion and training of Colored Students." By the same Act, the Gov-
ernor was empowered to appoint "five fit and discreet persons, resi-
dents of the State, to be known as the Commission on the School for
Colored Students." This Commission was to "procure the grounds
and buildings necessary for the establishment of the School," to pre-
scribe a course of training to be provided for all the students in said
school, "embracing the studies required by the Acts of the Congress
of the United States, approved July 2, 1862, and August 30, 1890,
making donations of public lands and the proceeds thereof to the
States and Territories for educational purposes."
It was further enacted that "the said school, when so established,
shall be a part of the University of Georgia," and the Commission
named in the Act appointed by the Governor, "shall constitute the
local Board of Trustees for the School, with perpetual succession."
This Commission was given immediate control, supervision and man-
agement of the school, subject to the general Board of Trustees of
the University of Georgia. The Chairman of the local Board of
Trustees was made ex-officio member of the general Board of Trus-
tees of the University, and the Chancellor of the University of Geor-
gia was given general supervision of the school.
In the summer of 1891, from June 1 to August 1, by the direction
of the Commission, Chancellor Boggs inaugurated in Baxter Street
School building at Athens, Georgia, a preliminary session of the
school which was conducted by Richard R. Wright, principal, and
three other instructors. Later, in 1892, this school was styled by the
Commission, "The Georgia State Industrial College for Colored
Youths" and was located about five miles southeast of the courthouse
of Savannah, Georgia, near Thunderbolt. For the permanent organ-
ization, the Commission selected a faculty consisting of a president,
instructors in English, mathematics, natural science, a superintendent
of the mechanical department, and a foreman of the farm.
During the thirty years Major Richard R. Wright was president,
the enrollment increased from 8 to 585; the curriculum was built
up to four years of high school training and a normal division of
college work. Training was offered in agriculture and the mechanical
arts. Starting the school with 86 acres of land (51 farm and 35
campus) on which were Boggs Hall, Parsons Hall, and a farm house,
Major Wright added four frame trade buildings, Meldrim Hall
(1896), Hill Hall (1901), a dairy barn and creamery (1904), a shoe
repair shop, a laundry, and a home economics building (1915).
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 19
Several changes were made during the presidency of C. G. Wiley
(1921-1926). During his first term, the Commission admitted young
women as boarders. The Smith-Lever, Smith-Hughes, and the Jeanes
funds established headquarters at the College. The first regular sum-
mer school was conducted June 26-August 4, 1922. In 1925, the Gen-
eral Assembly of Georgia changed the form of the governing body
for the College from a Commission with "perpetual succession" to a
Board of Trustees with a four-year term of office. The Governor ap-
pointed A. Pratt Adams, Savannah, Georgia, as chairman of the
Board.
In 1926, Meldrim Hall, which had been burned, was rebuilt.
Under the leadership of Dr. Benjamin F. Hubert (1926-1947), the
entire program was reorganized. The high school and normal depart-
ments were discontinued and the school became a four-year college,
offering the bachelor's degree in agriculture and home economics.
In 1931, the State, upon the advice of a special Committee of au-
thorities in education invited to make a study of the University Sys-
tem of education, placed the entire System under a Board of Regents.
At that time the College began offering degree programs with majors
in English, the natural sciences, social sciences, and business admin-
istration.
In 1940 the College was given B-rating by the Southern Associa-
tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools.
During the administration of Dr. Benjamin F. Hubert, the follow-
ing buildings were added to the physical plant: Adams Hall (1931),
Willie Powell Laboratory School (1932), shops for masonry and auto
mechanics (1935), Morgan Hall (1936), Willcox Gymnasium (1936),
Herty Hall (1937), Camilla Hubert Hall (1938), Information Cabin
(1940), Community House (1941), Incubator House (1941), three
teachers cottages, a cannery and farm shop building (1943), Trades
Building (1947,) and poultry houses for laying hens and growing
chicks.
On July 1, 1947, Mr. James A. Colston became the fourth presi-
dent of Georgia State College. President Colston quickly sensed the
task that awaited him, and began immediately charting the course for
a greater college by renovating and enlarging the physical plant,
strengthening the faculty, improving curricula offerings, and setting
up a practically new student personnel service. Three buildings were
added to the physical plant: an infirmary operated by a full-time
nurse and a physician; a fine arts building; and the College Inn.
On September 1, 1949, Dean W . K. Payne became acting president
of Georgia State College.
On January 18, 1950, the Regents of the University System of
Georgia changed the name of the College from Georgia State College
to Savannah State College.
On March 1, 1950, W. K. Payne became the fifth president of the
College.

veteran who does not have his approved VA Form 7-1953, Certifi-
cate of Eligibility and Entitlement, showing the exact name of course
to be pursued and name of institution in which he is to enroll, will be
required to make a deposit equal to the amount of his entrance costs.
This deposit will be refunded when the Certificate of Eligibility is
presented to the Veterans Secretary.
Charges for board and room are payable in advance. Veterans
who have not completed arrangements for subsistence payments must
pay room and board from their own funds until such time as sub-
sistence payments are received. Any arrangements for deferred pay-
ment of these expenses must be made personally with the Comptroller.
Veterans are urged to report personally to the Veterans Secretary
at Savannah State College immediately after their admission to the

munity organizations.

State College Branch
Savannah, Georgia
Transcripts and recommendations should be mailed directly from the

a. Courses completed with grades below "C" may not be
counted towards advanced standing.
b. Courses completed with grades below "C" shall be re-
peated if required for the degree at Savannah State Col-
lege.
3. Because the College requires for graduation a minimum of 180

normal courses may be granted maximum credit of 90 quarter
hours for equivalent courses completed with grades of "C" or
higher.

may not be granted credit in excess of 90 quarter hours below
the junior class level.
6. A student who has attended an unaccredited college may be
granted maximum credit of 90 quarter hours towards advanced
standing, provided each course on the transfer record is vali-
dated either:

or
b. By superior performance in continued basic general and
required advanced courses completed at Savannah State
College.
7. A student who has been dismissed from another institution be-
cause of poor scholarship or for disciplinary reasons may be
admitted to the College only upon express approval of the Com-
mittee on Admissions. Further:

dence. The College reserves the right to disallow transfer credit
for courses if a student's subsequent grades in required courses
in the same subject fall below average.
Admission of Special Students
1. Mature persons who are not high school graduates may be ad-
mitted as special students in some departments of the College,

THE CURRICULUM
The curriculum of Savannah State College is organized within four
instructional divisions Agriculture f , Arts and Sciences, Home Eco-
nomics, and Trades and Industries and the Division of General
Extension.
In the Division of Arts and Sciences, majors are offered in the fol-
lowing fields: biology, business, chemistry, elementary education,
English, general science, mathematics, music, physical education, and
social sciences.
In the Division of Trades and Industries majors are offered in in-
dustrial arts, industrial education, and trade and industrial education.
Certificate courses are offered in the following trades : auto mechanics,
automotive body and fender repair, carpentry and cabinet mak-
ing, electrical maintenance and installation, machine shop practice,
masonry, painting and decorating, radio repairing, and shoe repair.
When a student enters the College he is required to indicate his
field of major interest. Since much of the work in the first two years
consists of general education courses, change of major during the
sophomore year does not ordinarily entail loss of much time or credit.
But at the beginning of the junior year, each student must select a
major and a minor program. For students enrolled in teacher train-
ing curricula the courses in professional education constitute a minor.
Otherwise, a student pursuing a departmental major is required to
complete a minor in some other department. The minor, generally
comprising at least 30 quarter hours, is selected by the student in con-
sultation with his major adviser. Detailed requirements for majors
and minors are listed in departmental announcements.
Students are expected to develop competence in their fields of con-
centration. No grade lower than "C" will be accepted for credit
toward completion of requirements in a major or a minor. At the
completion of the major program each student is required to take a
general examination covering his field of concentration.
tThe degree program in Agriculture will be discontinued in August 1951.

DIVISION OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
Eugene Stanley, Acting Director
The Division of Arts and Sciences comprises nine departments:
biology, business, chemistry, education, fine arts (music and graphic
arts), languages and literature (English and French), mathematics
and physics, physical education, and social sciences.
All the Arts and Sciences curricula include courses in general
education. These represent in their present stage of development the
best thinking of the faculty as regards general understandings and
skills needed by all students in order that they may become contrib-
uting members to the progressive development of American society.
In addition to the general education emphasis, all curricula in the
division include courses which provide opportunities for the student
to specialize in one or more areas, with the idea of developing mar-
ketable skills. These skills, as well as their range, vary with the sev-
eral areas of concentration, although teaching in elementary or sec-
ondary schools is seen as a marketable skill which may be developed
in all departments.
A student may earn either a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science
degree in the division. The distinction between the two degrees is
largely a matter of the extent of art or science content in the curricu-
lum elected by the student.
Each student enrolled in the division has a major adviser who may
be a member of the department in which the student is concentrat-
ing. Departmental records form the basis for the advisory system.
DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY
Booker T. Griffith, Chairman Joseph H. Wortham
The aims of the Department of Biology are: (1) to provide for
all students that knowledge which is essential to an understanding of
the biological basis of living; (2) to train persons adequately through
the media of advanced courses for entry into the professional study
of dentistry, medicine, and nursing; (3) to prepare persons to teach
the biological sciences in the secondary school or to continue study
on the graduate level.
PLAN OF STUDY
Biology 101 and 102 are designed for non-science majors, to realize
the aim stated in item 1, foregoing. Biology 105 is designed for agri-
culture and home economics majors. Biology 103 and 201 are in-
tended as beginning courses for students who plan to major in one
of the sciences, or who desire training preparacory to either the study
of dentistry, medicine, nursing, or to graduate study. For persons
who plan to teach biology or another of the sciences in the secondary
school, this department collaborating with the departments of chem-
44

DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY
C. V. Clay, Chairman W. V. Winters*
W. C. Roberson W. E. Murray
The work in the Department of Chemistry is intended to serve
four purposes. (1) It provides a thorough foundation in the general
courses for students who seek an understanding of the methods and
achievements of the chemist. (2) It provides the needed semi-spe-
cialized preparation for students who are majoring in agriculture,
home economics, and trades and industries. (3) It affords training
for persons who plan to teach science in the secondary school. (4)
It provides pre-professional training for students who intend to study
dentistry, medicine, etc., and for those who plan to enter graduate
school.
PLAN OF STUDY
Students who plan to major in chemistry should confer with the
department chairman before beginning their study programs. Chem-
istry majors are expressly cautioned not to enroll in the science sur-
vey courses. The following are normally prescribed for the major:
Chemistry 101-102, 103, 201-202, 301-302, 401-402. Students taking
a minor in chemistry should complete: Chemistry 101-102, 103, 301-
302.
For those who plan to teach science in the secondary school, this
department collaborates with the departments of biology and mathe-
matics and physics in providing a general science major. The cur-
riculum follows the chemistry curriculum.

THE TRAINING PROGRAM FOR TEACHERS IN THE
SECONDARY SCHOOL
AIMS AND PURPOSES
The goals of this program are seen as qualities that should char-
acterize the superior teacher. (1) He should have that command of
subject matter which will enable him to adapt content to the needs,
problems, and interests of high school pupils. (2) He should have
such mastery of communication skills as will enable him to assist
pupils in developing these skills. (3) He should be adept in the ap-
propriate use of a wide variety of teaching materials. (4) He should
be able to further good human relationships. (5) He should be able
to think and plan effectively.
PLAN OF STUDY
Specialization in secondary education begins in September, fol-
lowing the student's freshman year, with a ten-day field experience
as a "helper" in a high school located in the student's home town.
During the spring quarter of the preceding year, the College makes
arrangements for this experience through principals who designate
regular teachers to be assisted by students from the College. The stu-
dent assists with the routine work incident to the opening of school,
attends faculty meetings, and observes the operations of the school.
It is felt that this experience can enable students to identify prob-
lems faced by a high school teacher and thus provide one basis for
subsequent work in the teacher education curriculum.
Professional education courses offered during the last three years
of the teacher training program involve field work, extensive contacts
with children, and creative study in the education laboratory. During
this time the student likewise completes a major concentration in
one of the following, which presumably will be his teaching field:
English, general science, mathematics, music, physical education, so-
cial sciences.
Directed student teaching, the culmination of the program of
teacher education, is directed cooperatively by members of the de-
partment in which the student is specializing and the Department of
Education. Under this arrangement weekly seminars are also provided.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 63
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION

DEPARTMENT OF FINE ARTS
Hilliary R. Hatchett, Jr.,, Acting Chairman, Music
John J. Ballou L. Allen Pyke
Earline S. Smith., Graphic Arts
The Department of Fine Arts provides opportunity for work in
music and the graphic arts for students who have special interests
and abilities in these fields and for those who desire an intelligent
understanding of the arts as a vital part of their general education.
Specifically, the aims of the program in music education are: (1)
to provide opportunities for all students to develop an appreciation
of music and musical productions, and through participation in
general music activities to exercise such talents as they have; (2) to
develop those students who show interest and aptitude to the point of
competence needed for success as teachers and supervisors of school
music and directors of orchestras, bands, and community choruses.
The courses in graphic arts are intended: (1) to provide the gen-
eral student an understanding and appreciation of art which are es-
sential to rounded living; (2) to enable students of elementary edu-
cation and home economics to develop facility and skills in adapting
art materials to functional ends in the school and home.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MAJOR IN
MUSIC EDUCATION
All students desiring to major in music education are required:
1. To make a satisfactory score on a musical aptitude examina-
tion administered by the department at the beginning of the
student's sophomore year.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
67
2. To complete the prescribed curriculum for music education
majors.
3. To earn a minimum of ten quarter hours as a contributing
member of campus music organizations.
THE APPLIED MUSIC REQUIREMENT
Courses in applied music are integral throughout eleven quarters
of the music education curriculum. (See courses in piano, organ,
voice.) These courses are designed to meet needs of the prospective
teacher of music in the public school. Basic criteria are the develop-
ment of good musicianship, technique and performance ability, and
a wide reading knowledge of music literature. Specific requirements
for each course and prescribed levels of achievement are determined
by the applied music instructor.
One lesson weekly together with daily practice and one hour
credit per quarter are the prescribed minimum. Upon recommenda-
tion of the departmental staff, a student may take two lessons weekly
with corresponding daily practice and thus earn two hours credit
per quarter.
A fee of $10.00 is charged each music education major taking ap-
plied music. This fee covers all music course services such as special
materials, recordings, practice rooms, listening rooms, use of depart-
mental instruments, etc.
MUSIC ACTIVITIES FOR NON-MUSIC MAJORS
The Department of Fine Arts welcomes the cooperation of stu-
dents. Direction of all music organizations on the campus is a re-
sponsibility of the Department of Music. All students who have the
interest and ability are invited to contribute to the success of these
organizations. Persons who are not music majors may enroll in the
band, choir, and glee clubs. Upon recommendation of the chairman
of the Department of Music, such persons may receive a maximum
of one quarter hour of non-academic credit in music for each quarter
of successful participation. They may be granted, also, a maximum
of five participation points per year.

The aim of the Department of Languages and Literature is to help
the student become proficient in oral and written language, and to
help him develop an appreciation for good literature.
A student who has successfully pursued English as his major sub-
ject should have some power to discriminate between that which is
genuinely great and that which is less great in literature. He should
have an intelligent acquaintance with a fair number of English mas-
terpieces. He should have some facility, taste, and understanding in
expression, and some idea of the main trends of English and Ameri-
can thought.
As to French, specifically, the objectives are: (1) to develop a
working knowledge of French so that the student will be fairly pro-
ficient in the mechanics of writing and speaking the language, and
(2) to develop a reading knowledge of French which will enable
the student to read the language with reasonable comprehension and
ease.
PLAN OF STUDY
All freshman students are given a placement test in English. Those
passing the test enter English 101; those who fail are placed in non-
credit groups according to the score made in the test. If at the end
of the quarter a student passes the test and has done creditable work,
he is given credit for his work and is allowed to take English 102.
Students are required to pass the test before they receive credit for
their work. Students who show a very high proficiency may be al-
lowed to begin the freshman work with English 102.

DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SCIENCES
E. J. Dean, Chairman
Blanton E. Black W. E. Griffin
Joan L. Gordon William J. Holloway

Good citizenship is the supreme goal of the social sciences. To be
able citizens, students should have knowledge of human and cultural
backgrounds and relationships. This essential knowledge comes
through study of history, economics, sociology, political science, and
other social sciences.
The Department of Social Sciences contributes to the realization of
good citizenship by fostering three aims of higher education: (1) by
assisting students to attain those competencies and attitudes essential
to all persons in a world of interdependent relationships; (2) by pre-
paring students for advanced study in fields such as social work, eco-
nomics, and history; (3) by preparing students for teaching the social
studies in the secondary school.
THE CHOICE OF A MAJOR
In conformance with the foregoing aims this department provides
two curricula, each of which leads to the B.S. degree with a major
in social sciences. Curriculum I is intended for persons who plan to
teach social studies in the secondary school. Curriculum II is de-
Courses 306, 307, 308, and 309 provide more extensive investigations in the various
areas of physics. Mathematics requirements for these courses are: five hours of col-
lege algebra and five hours of trigonometry. Calculus may be used but is not required.

DIVISION OF HOME ECONOMICS
Evanel E. Renfrow, Director
Martha M. Avery Evelyn Hunter
Christine H. Coleman Earline Smith
The work of the Division of Home Economics is intended to achieve
six aims: (1) to enrich the cultural and social backgrounds of stu-
dents so that they may become more worthy members of the home
and community; (2) to prepare students to teach vocational home
economics; (3 to train students for work as home demonstration
agents; (4) to train persons for employment as owners or managers
of restaurants, cafes, tea rooms, and school or college cafeterias; (5)
to give students the necessary preprofessional training for employment
(upon completion of a year's interneship elsewhere) as dietitians in
approved hospitals or other institutions; (6) to provide related train-
ing through service courses for persons majoring in fields other than
home economics.
PLAN OF STUDY
To achieve the foregoing aims, the division offers courses lead-
ing to the B.S. degree with majors in home economics education and
in foods and nutrition. A variety of courses are provided also in the
areas of art, home management and family living, and textiles and
clothing. The work of the freshman year is uniform for all home
economics majors. Before beginning the sophomore year each stu-
dent confers with the division director and decides upon a major. For
the sophomore, junior, and senior years, the work consists mainly of
prescribed courses.

DIVISION OF TRADES AND INDUSTRIES
W. B. Nelson, Director
The purpose of the Division of Trades and Industries is to train
men for employment: (1) as mechanics and technicians in the sev-
eral skilled trades and in industry; (2) as teachers of vocational sub-
jects and industrial arts in the secondary school; (3) as construction
foremen and contractors.
CURRICULA
To achieve the foregoing, this division offers two types of curricula.
For persons who want special terminal preparation that will fit them
for employability in a trade or in industry, a special course is pro-
vided in each of the following:
Automobile Overhaul and Repair
Automotive Body and Fender Repair
Electrical Maintenance and Installation
General Woodworking and Carpentry
Machine Shop Practice
Masonry
Painting and Decorating
Radio Repairing
Shoe Repair
Upon satisfactory completion of one of these courses, a person is
granted a certificate of proficiency.
For those who desire to qualify as teachers of vocational subjects
or industrial arts, or as technicians, skilled tradesmen, and contrac-
tors, this division offers specialized training leading to the degree of
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
101
Bachelor of Science. The student may choose a major in industrial
arts, in industrial education, or in trade and industrial education. A
person majoring in industrial education will at the same time com-
plete a concentration in either building construction or general shop.
To earn the B.S. degree in this division, a student must satisfac-
torily complete considerable practical work in a trade. For example,
the industrial arts major devotes nearly a third of his time to trade
training (shop practice) throughout eleven quarters, being generally
limited, however, to three courses in any one trade. Each major in
trades and industries normally takes drafting concurrently with the
trade work.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
ATTENDANCE
In classroom exercises, laboratory, related requirements, and shop
work, Savannah State College provides for students the facilities,
materials, staff, and conditions of training, learning, and creative
activity. It is essential that each student share fully in the educational
experiences thus provided. Therefore, to help students towards realiz-
ing the greatest possible benefit from opportunities here afforded, the
College has set up general attendance requirements. These require-
ments are detailed in the Student Handbook, which may be obtained
upon request at the Office of the Coordinator of Student Personnel
Services. When a student enrolls in residence courses, he accepts full
responsibility for informing himself as to the meaning of these regu-
lations and for strict adherence to the attendance requirements.
THE GRADING SYSTEM
The College uses letters to indicate quality of academic work. "A"
is the highest grade; "D" the lowest passing grade. Grade distinctions
are as follows:
114 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
The grade "A" denotes excellent work.
The grade "B" denotes good work.
The grade "C" denotes average work; satisfactory.
The grade "D" denotes poor work. Though accepted as a passing
mark, "D" does not represent satisfactory achievement, and is not ac-
cepted toward a student's major or minor. Like the higher grades, it is
final and cannot be raised by subsequent work or examination. The
entire course may, however, be repeated for a higher grade, upon rec-
ommendation of the instructor. At no time, however, may credit be
received more than once for the same course.
The grade "E" denotes a condition. This is not a passing grade, and
it must be removed by examination. A student may receive a grade
no higher than a "D" by removing a condition.
The grade "F" indicates that the student has failed to meet mini-
mum requirements of the course. Except as provided in the following
regulation (Changes in Grades) a student may convert an F into a
higher grade only by repeating the course. The grade F may indicate
also that the student did not attend classes in a course in which he
was officially registered, and did not officially withdraw from the
course.
The grade "I" indicates that the student has not completed the
work of the course. The "I" denotes further:
a. That the student remained in the class until near the end of
the quarter.
b. That, though incomplete, the student's work while he re-
mained in the class was of D grade or better.
c. That either by examination or additional work the student
may complete the course during the next quarter.
The grade "W" indicates that the student officially withdrew from
the class before the end of the quarter. This grade carries the follow-
ing distinctions:
a. "W" indicates that the student has been in the class such
few times, (in general, fewer than ten class periods) that the
teacher can give no qualitative grade.
b. *"WP" indicates that the student has attended class ten or
more times and that he was doing satisfactory work when he
officially withdrew.
c. "WF" indicates that the student has attended class ten or
more times, and that his work was below minimum require-
ments when he officially withdrew.
CHANGES IN GRADES
Once an instructor has reported a grade to the Registrar, the grade
may be changed only under the following conditions:
1. An instructor may change an I (Incomplete) to any grade
within twelve months. An I automatically becomes F if it is not
removed within twelve months.
2. An instructor may change an E to a D through one examina-
tion given the student within the following quarter. An E auto-
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 115
matically becomes an F if it is not removed during the quarter
following the date it is reported to the Registrar.
3. Other than as provided in the foregoing, a student may not
qualify for a higher grade through re-examination, except that:
a. A person who has been graded F under the original *4 clause
(excessive absence) may be granted the privilege of one
examination to raise the grade within the next quarter of
residence, when in the judgment of the instructor and the
Dean of Faculty such second examination is warranted.
b. A candidate for graduation may be granted the privilege of
one examination if in the judgment of the instructor and
the Dean of Faculty such an examination is warranted.
4. An instructor may change any grade to another grade within
one month after the initial report, upon presenting to the Dean
of Faculty conclusive documentary proof that the previous grade
was mistakingly reported through an error in transcription.
QUALITY POINTS
The value of each grade in quality is as follows: a grade of "A"
entitles the student to 3 quality points per credit hour; a grade of "B"
entitles the student to 2 quality points per credit hour; a grade of "C,"
1 quality point per credit hour; a grade of "D," no quality points. For
a final grade of "F," 1 quality point per credit hour will be deducted.
For example, if a student receives a grade of "F" in a 5 quarter hour
course, he receives quarter hours and 5 quality points. It is a re-
quirement of the College that every student earn at least as many
quality points as quarter hours required by his curriculum before he
shall be granted a degree from the institution.
CALCULATING A STUDENT'S SCHOLASTIC AVERAGE
A student's scholastic average is computed by dividing the number
of quarter hours academic credit completed with passing and failing
(final) grades into the number of quality points earned. When a stu-
dent repeats a course, the credit and quality points previously earned
in the course are automatically cancelled in computing the student's
scholastic average.* The grade and quality points earned upon
repetition of the course supersede the previous grade and points, and
are final. Credit earned through a second examination is treated in
the same manner as credit earned by repetition of a course. When
the grade F is a final grade, the nominal credit of the course
together with minus one ( 1) quality point per hour of nominal
credit is counted in calculating the cumulative average.
CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
A student will be classified as a freshman, sophomore, junior, or
senior, according to the number of quarter hours of work that he has
completed with an average grade of C. A student who has completed
*AU courses and grades of a student are entered upon the student's permanent record,
retained thereon, and certified on his transcript.
116 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
fewer than 37 hours of the number of hours required for graduation
will be classified as a freshman. A student will be entitled to register
as a sophomore when he has completed with an average grade of C
at least 37 hours; as a junior when he has completed with a like
average at least 84 hours; and as a senior when he has completed
with a like average at least 131 hours.
The classification under which a student registers at the beginning
of the academic year will continue throughout that year.
SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS
Savannah State College is operated for students who demonstrate
their ability and disposition to profit by college work. Standards and
regulations which each student should reach are hereby set up as a
guide. A student must attain the following minimum standards in
order to be eligible to remain in the College:
1. In any quarter a student must earn at least five quarter hours
credit with an average of C in one regular course to be eligible
to register for the succeeding quarter. Freshman students fail-
ing in the above during their first quarter may be placed on
probation for one quarter.
2. Regular students earning credit with a minimum average of C
in one five-hour course and less than C in two five-hour courses
in any one quarter will be placed on probation for the succeed-
ing quarter.
3. During any quarter when a student is on probation, the student
must earn credit with a minimum average of C in as many as
two five-hour courses to be eligible to register for the next
quarter.
4. Students failing to meet eligibility requirements because of
failures in courses at the end of the fall or winter quarter may,
by special permission, remain in college on probation the fol-
lowing quarter.
5. If a student on probation earns credit with a minimum average
of C in two five-hour courses, but less than three five-hour
courses, the student remains on probation the next quarter. In
order to get off probation, a student must earn credit with a
minimum average of C in as many as three five-hour courses
in one quarter. A student may not remain on probation for
more than two successive quarters.
6. Students who are registered in the College for three quarters
(September to June) in any year must earn as many quality
points as hours taken to be eligible to register for the following
fall quarter. A student failing in this standard may re-establish
eligibility through summer quarter study.
7. A student who is out of the College for one or more quarters
because of failure in courses or deficiency in quality points may
be re-admitted on probation. In such a case the student must
earn credit with a minimum average of C in not fewer than
two five-hour courses during the first quarter of re-enrollment
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 117
in order to be eligible to register for the following quarter. A
student who is ineligible the second time because of deficiency
in quality points, and who is twice dismissed, may not be
readmitted.
8. A student who is deficient in courses or quality points at the
end of the spring quarter may re-establish eligibility by earning
the grade of B in ten quarter hours of work in a five weeks'
summer session. At the end of the sophomore year a student
must have earned a cumulative average of .90 in order to
remain in the College.
9. The same regulation as to scholarship applies to students who
transfer from other institutions. A student who is ineligible to
return to a college which he has been attending will be ineli-
gible to transfer to Savannah State College until such ineligibility
is removed.
ACTION ON SCHOLASTIC DEFICIENCIES
1. At the end of each quarter the Registrar shall submit to the
Dean of Faculty the names of students who have failed to meet
minimum scholarship requirements.
2. The Dean of Faculty shall study the records of students so
listed and recommend to the Faculty or the Administrative
Council the action to be taken in each case.
3. A student dropped for poor scholarship shall be notified in per-
son by the Dean of Faculty. In instances when the student is
under 21 years of age, a special letter will be written to par-
ents or guardian explaining the status of the student.
4. Division directors, departmental heads, and the Registrar shall
be informed of all students in this category.
RECOGNITION FOR EXCELLENCE IN SCHOLARSHIP
1. Students who maintain an average of B in not less than a nor-
mal load during a given quarter are eligible for listing on the
College Honor Roll.
2. Students who maintain an average of 2.50 on a full program in
a quarter will have their names placed on the Dean's List for
the following quarter.
3. Students maintaining an average of B with no grade below C
during any quarter shall not be required to adhere to the class
attendance regulations.
4. Students who maintain an average of B during any quarter may
secure permission to take a fourth course during the following
quarter.
GRADUATION HONORS
If a student maintains an average of 2.00 during his four years in
college, he will be graduated Cum Laude. If a student maintains an
average of 2.50 or above, he will be graduated Magna Cum Laude.
118 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
If a student maintains an average of 3.00, he will be graduated
Summa Cum Laude. A student must have matriculated at Savannah
State College for at least three years to receive his degree Summa
Cum Laude, two years for Magna Cum Laude, and two years for
Cum Laude.
ADVISERS TO STUDENTS
Each student is assigned to a member of the faculty for special ad-
Vice during the freshman and sophomore years. In the case of senior
division students, the professor in charge of the student's major con-
centration subject automatically becomes his adviser. The duties of
the adviser are to assist the student in selecting his subjects, to aid
him in interpreting the requirements, to guide him in important mat-
ters. In case of any proposed change in his program, a student should
consult his adviser, who will judge the reason for the change and
make recommendation to the Dean of Faculty. The responsibility for
selection of courses rests, in the final analysis, upon the student. It is
the primary duty of the student to meet the requirements of his cur-
riculum, so that he may not in his senior year find himself unable to
graduate. A request from the adviser to the student for conference
should be promptly complied with.
STUDENT LOAD
Under ordinary circumstances, a student may not register for an
academic credit load in any quarter exceeding the normal require-
ment of his classification and major. As indicated under Recognition
for Excellence in Scholarship section 4, exceptions are, however,
permissible to superior students. Also, a candidate for graduation
who has no scholastic deficiency may enroll for credit in one addi-
tional course, the total load not to exceed twenty quarter hours, if
lack of such course would hinder the student from graduating on
schedule. In any event, a student will be allowed no credit for an
Overload unless such overload has the formal, express approval of
both the student's adviser and the Dean of Faculty.
When illness or necessary outside work or other valid reason pre-
vents a student from devoting full time to study, he may reduce his
academic load upon recommendation of his adviser and approval by
the Dean of Faculty.
All regular and all trades special students are required to pursue
courses in the prescribed order. Special college students will pursue
the courses agreed upon in conference with their advisers. In case
of temporary irregularity due to failure, or other causes, the student
shall select such courses as will enable him to conform to his curricu-
lum as quickly as possible.
Incomplete required courses take precedence over other subjects.
Any student who has an incomplete or condition in a required course,
or who has a failing grade in a required course, must register first in
that course.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 119
STUDENT CONDUCT
Each student enrolled at Savannah State College is expected at all
times to exemplify a due respect for order, morality, and the rights of
others.
The College reserves the right to exclude at any time any student
whose conduct is deemed improper or prejudicial to the welfare of
the College community.
Procedure for Withdrawal
Students wishing to withdraw for any reason are required to file
formal notice.
1. A student will go to the office of the Dean of Faculty and se-
cure forms for withdrawal. When the forms have been properly
filled out, the student will take one form to his personnel dean
and one to his instructors. The instructors will initial the form
and return it to the student. After all instructors have initialed
the form, the student must return the form to the Registrar
who will send notice of the withdrawal to the Comptroller.*
2. In cases of emergency when the student is required to leave
school before it is possible to file formal notice, the student
should write or have someone write to the Dean of Faculty for
permission to withdraw.
3. Students who withdraw without giving formal notice will re-
ceive "Failure" as a grade in their course and shall forfeit
claims for any refunds.*
