GENERAL INFORMATION
HISTORY
By 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 education
and training of Negro students." By the same Act, the Governor was
empowered to appoint "five fit and discreet persons, residents of the
State, to be known as the Commission on School for Negro students."
This commission was to "procure the grounds and buildings
necessary for the establishment of the school," to prescribe a course
of training to be provided for all the students in said school, "em-
bracing 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 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
management 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
Trustees of the University, and the Chancellor of the University of
Georgia was given general supervision of the school.
A preliminary session of the school was held between June 1, and
August 1, 1891, at the Baxter Street School building in Athens,
Georgia, by direction of the Commission to Chancellor Boggs.
Richard R. Wright, the first principal, and three other instructors
constituted the faculty. In the following year the school was
relocated at its present site which is approximately five miles
southeast of the Courthouse of Savannah, Georgia, partly in Savan-
nah and partly in Thunderbolt. At this time the Commission referred
to the institution as "The Georgia State Industrial College for
Colored Youths." It selected a faculty consisting of Major Wright as
President, instructors in English, mathematics, and natural sciences,
a superintendent of the mechanical department, and a foreman of
the farm.
During the thirty years that Major Wright served as President, the
enrollment increased from 8 to 585; the curriculum was built up to
28 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
four years of high school training and a normal division; and train-
ing was begun in agriculture and the mechanical arts. Starting the
school with 86 acres of land on which two buildings and a farm house
were erected, Major Wright added four frame trade buildings,
Meldrim Hall (1896), Hill Hall (1901), a dairy barn and creamery
(1904), a shoe repair shop, laundry, and home economics building
(1915).
Several changes were made during the presidency of C. G. Wiley
(1921-1926). During his first year of service, the Commission admitted
young women as boarders. The first regular summer school was con-
ducted between June 26, and August 4, 1922. In 1925 the General
Assembly of Georgia changed the form of the governing body for the
institution from a Commission with "perpetual succession" to a
Board of Trustees with a four-year term of office.
During the administration of the third President, Dr. Benjamin F.
Hubert (1926-1947), the entire academic program was reorganized. The
high school and normal departments 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
authorities in education which had been invited to make a study of
the University System, placed the entire System under a Board of
Regents. At that time the College began to offer degree programs
with majors in English, the natural sciences, social sciences, and
business administration.
Until 1947, the College served as the state land-grant institution
for Negroes. In that year this function was assumed by Fort Valley
State College.
During the administration of President James A. Colston (1947-
1949), the faculty was strengthened and improvements were made in
the physical plant. Among the programs that were launched at this
time were the Alumni Scholarship Drive, Campus Chest, Annual
Men's Day, Religious Emphasis Week, Freshman Week, and the
Cultural Artists Series. Expanded programs of student personnel ser-
vices and public relations, a reading clinic, and an audio-visual aids
laboratory were instituted under the leadership of President Colston.
Dean W. K. Payne became acting president of the College on Sep-
tember 1, 1949. The Regents of the University System of Georgia
changed the name of the College from Georgia State College to
Savannah State College on January 18, 1950. Dr. Payne became the
fifth President of the College on March 1, 1950; he served in this
capacity until his death on July 26, 1963.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 29
At the beginning of Dr. Payne's administration, Savannah State
College was granted membership in the American Council on
Education. During the course of his administration the curriculum
was expanded and improved and the institution was admitted to
membership in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In
addition, the academic program of the College was organized under
seven divisions Business Administration, Education, Humanities,
Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Technical Sciences, and Home
Study.
Under the inspired leadership of Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr. (November
1, 1963 through January 31, 1971), significant, far-reaching and in-
novative programs were initiated in all aspects of the College's
development. Curricula improvements in the general education
program, in teacher education, and in business administration, as
well as other areas, were carried forward. A graduate studies program
in elementary education was initiated in the summer of 1968. The
mantle of educational leadership at Savannah State College passed
from Dr. Jordan to Dr. Prince A. Jackson, Jr. on February 1, 1971.
Many of the improvements and innovations begun during
President Jordan's administration came to fruition during the first
year of Dr. Jackson's tenure. At the time of his appointment, the new
President was chairman of the Division of Natural Sciences and
director of the Institutional Self-Study which resulted in reac-
creditation of the College by the Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools in December, 1971. During that same year the College
was accredited by the National Council for the Accreditation of
Teacher Education (NCATE). President Jackson, the first alumnus of
the College to become its President, is providing vigorous and
dynamic leadership geared to the task of increasing all of the
College's resources and employing them to meet more effectively the
rising aspirations of Black Americans and other disadvantaged per-
sons for a richer and more rewarding life.
GRADUATE STUDIES
In 1967 the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia
authorized Savannah State College to offer courses and related ex-
periences leading to the Master of Science degree in elementary
education. From June 1968 until August 1971, this program was in
operation, graduating a total of forty-one persons with the masters
degree.
The graduate program at Savannah State College was merged into
a joint program with Armstrong State College of Savannah by action
30 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
of the Board of Regents effective September 1, 1971. In addition to
the masters degree in elementary education, courses are now being
offered leading to the degree of Master of Business Administration.
It is anticipated that during the 1972-73 school year, final approval
will be given to offer courses leading to the masters degree in the
secondary education options of Chemistry, Biology, General Science,
English, Mathematics, and History and Political Science. 1 Other op-
tions are in the planning stages, to be offered later.
Admission to the graduate program is restricted to persons who
hold the baccalaureate degree from accredited colleges and who in-
dicate ability to pursue successfully graduate work. Persons desiring
courses for their personal enrichment may be admitted under certain
conditions.
Complete information on admission requirements, courses, and
academic policies may be found in the separate catalog for the
graduate program which may be obtained by writing the Graduate
Studies Office either at Savannah State College, Savannah, Georgia
31404, or at Armstrong State College, Savannah, Georgia 31406.
Buildings and Grounds
The campus, comprising 136 acres, presents a unique setting of
natural beauty. Among its 40 buildings are three constructed during
the administration of the first president, Major Richard R. Wright,
which are still in use Meldrim Hall (1896), Hill Hall (1901), and
Hammond Hall (1915). All of these buildings have been extensively
renovated since their erection. Meldrim Hall, which had been burned,
was rebuilt in 1926.
During the administration of Dr. Benjamin F. Hubert, the
following buildings were added to the physical plant: Adams Hall
(1931), Willie Hill Powell Laboratory School (1932), shops for masonry
and auto mechanics (1935), Morgan Hall (1936), Willcox Gymnasium
(1936), Herty Hall (1937), Camilla Hubert Hall (1938), Hodge Com-
munity House (1941), Incubator House (1941), three teachers' cottages,
a cannery and farm shop building (1943), trades building (1947), and
poultry houses.
An infirmary and two temporary buildings a fine arts structure
and a student center were erected during the administration of
Dr. Colston.
'These programs were approved in July, 1972.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 31
An extensive building program was begun in 1951 during the ad-
ministration of Dr. W. K. Payne. Wright Hall (men's dormitory), a
library, the technical sciences building, a central heating plant, and a
sewage disposal system were completed. Construction was begun on a
dormitory for women, which was completed in the summer of 1964. A
four-unit, all-weather, tennis court has been erected across from the
old athletic field.
In the fall of 1965, the Board of Regents approved the following
names for buildings which had been erected during Dr. Payne's ad-
ministration: the Asa H. Gordon Library; Janie L. Lester Hall (a dor-
mitory for young women); and Benjamin F. Hubert Technical Scien-
ces Center. Dr. Gordon served as dean of the college from 1928 to 1936
and as director of research and publications from 1937 until 1941.
Miss Lester rendered distinguished service to the College for a quar-
ter of a century and was dean of women at the time of her death in
1951.
Rapid progress was made in developing an expanded building
program under the leadership of President Howard Jordan, Jr. At the
beginning of the 1965-1966 school year, recently completed buildings
were occupied for the first time: (1) W. K. Payne Hall, a two-story air-
conditioned classroom building consisting of fifteen classrooms, of-
fice space for thirty-two instructors, data processing facilities, a
language laboratory, a reading clinic, and an administrative area; (2)
Lockett Hall, a dormitory for 180 young women, which was named in
honor of Professor and Mrs. John A. Lockett who were associated
with the College for many years; and (3) an annex to Wiley Gym-
nasium consisting of a swimming pool, classrooms, and additional
spectator seating for indoor sports. In addition, the John F. Kennedy
Fine Arts Center, which includes a little theater, was occupied for
the first time in the Winter Quarter of 1967, and the A. E. Peacock
Hall, a dormitory accommodating 180 men, was completed and oc-
cupied in the spring of 1967. Built near the north entrance to the
campus, Peacock Hall is a modern three-story building consisting of
90 studio type bedrooms, a lobby, recreational area, an apartment for
the house director, a barber shop, a room for television viewing, and a
laundromat. Tiger Stadium, on the West Campus, was constructed in
1967. The last building to be completed during President Jordan's ad-
ministration is the Martin Luther King, Jr.,-Vannetta Frazier Com-
plex, a modern structure which serves as the Student Center and
Dining Facility. Two other buildings, a new women's residence hall
and a new science building, were begun while Dr. Jordan was
president, but were completed in 1971, after Dr. Jackson had assumed
that position. A new men's residence hall was completed in 1972.
32 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
THE LIBRARY
A modern library with a well-prepared staff serves the college and
community. It houses over 75,000 cataloged volumes, approximately
1,000 periodicals subscriptions, over 90,000 microforms, and 9,238
bound periodicals. Approximately 8,000 volumes are added yearly to
keep the collection up to date. There is an extensive collection of
materials by and about the Negro.
This air-conditioned, modular structure provides excellent library
facilities. There are two main reading rooms with open stacks, a
seminar room, lounging area, instructional media center, and a
curriculum materials center. The latter affords prospective and in-
service teachers an opportunity to examine and use recently
published instructional materials. There is also a music room
equipped with individual earphones and recordings of the best music.
The library is the cultural and intellectual center of the College and
community.

PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES
OF THE COLLEGE
Savannah State College, a unit of the University System of
Georgia, is a college of Arts and Sciences, Teacher Education,
Business Administration, and Engineering Technology.
The College is strongly committed to the general philosophy of for-
mal education which aims at the development of intellectual,
vocational, physical, and social competence of the individual student,
no matter what his future specialty may be. It also realizes that the
aim of education is not only to enrich the minds of the students with
new knowledge, but also to help them rise to their fullest spiritual
and moral stature. In addition, the College acknowledges and accepts
a special responsibility to encourage and assist the revolution of
rising expectations among disadvantaged Americans. With these fac-
tors in view, the College seeks to provide an educational and social
environment designed to overcome any motivational and/or
educational deficits which the student might have, and then to help
the student, whether he be disadvantaged or advantaged, to expand
his knowledge, broaden his outlook, and develop his talents and in-
dividuality to the end that he can become a creative and active par-
ticipant in the drama of life.
The College, therefore, has several missions to fulfill. It affords
students an opportunity to acquire the kind of education that will
enable them to contribute effectively to American society's con-
tinuing effort to become more democratic and more just at home and
in its relations with other members of the world community. It also
provides continuing educational and cultural services for the people
of Georgia and the larger community. Although emphasis has been
placed on teaching and learning with the students at the core, the
College also strives to utilize its facilities for the advancement of the
welfare of the faculty, staff, and citizens of the immediate com-
munity which it serves. Thus, it is cognizant of the need to encourage
subsidized institutes in order to upgrade in-service teaching. The
College is also aware of the need to motivate faculty-student par-
ticipation and involvement in community development programs.
Consistent with the above philosophy and purpose, the institution
has several major objectives to cultivate the student's intellectual, ar-
tistic, cultural, and physical capacity to earn a respectable and
responsible position in society. They are designed to help a student:
1. To gain basic preparation, knowledge, and skills necessary to the
satisfaction of his personal needs as well as the needs of home and
society.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 35
2. To acquire specialized training in one of the many available
areas, and to develop individual talents and intellectual curiosity
which are essential to further study and progress.
3. To broaden his understanding and appreciation of his own as
well as other cultures.
4. To develop an understanding of mental, emotional, and physical
health, and to practice habits that are conducive to sound personal
and community health.
5. To acquire a motivation for self improvement, and to attain an
awareness of social and civic responsibilities in order to carry out ef-
fectively the duties and obligations of good citizenship.
To attain these objectives, the College offers formal instruction
organized within seven divisions: Business Administration,
Education, Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Technical
Sciences, and Military Science. Additionally, in pursuit of these
goals, the College:
A. Selects and upgrades teachers, counselors, personnel workers,
and administrative and auxiliary personnel.
B. Gives students due responsibility in making their own
educational decisions with advice of the faculty, through their par-
ticipation in the government of the College and a program of extra-
curricular activities.
C. Draws upon available intellectual, cultural, and technical
resources to enrich the lives of the students.
The total resources of the College are dedicated to the student's
mental, physical, and emotional maturity.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES AND SERVICES
Savannah State College makes a concerted effort to insure
wholesome personal development and growth for those students who
reside in its dormitories. Residence halls for men and for women are
equipped with essential furniture. Students provide their own bed
linen, blankets, towels, bedspreads, and scarfs.
Residential life of women students is supervised by the Dean of
Women and head residents. Through dormitory clubs, the women
36
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
students help to plan dormitory activities and participate in
developing standards of conduct and determining social regulations
for the groups.
Dormitory life for men is supervised by the Dean of Men and the
head resident. Practice in democratic living is provided through dor-
mitory organization, enabling the men to work with the staff in plan-
ning projects, stimulating achievement, and promoting optimum per-
sonal development.
All out-of-town students are required to live in the dormitories and
use the dining facilities as long as space is available in the dor-
mitories.

THE MARCHING BAND REHEARSES
STUDENT CONDUCT
Each student enrolled at Savannah State College is expected at all
times to exemplify 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.
RELIGIOUS LIFE
Savannah State College puts great emphasis upon a rich and varied
religious life program. Through its religious activities, the College
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 37
seeks to develop an understanding of and an appreciation for the
place of religion in everyday living, to deepen spiritual insight, and
to make the practice of religious principles a vital part of the life of
the well educated citizen.
Religious life activities are directed by the College Minister. The
Sunday School, YMCA and YWCA, and the annual Religious Em-
phasis Week provide opportunities for religious growth and develop-
ment under the supervision of the Religious Life Committee.
POLICY ON USE OF DRUGS
The possession or use (without valid medical or dental prescrip-
tion), manufacture, furnishing, or sale of any narcotic or dangerous
drug controlled by federal or Georgia law is prohibited. Violators are
subject to arrest and prosecution.
STUDENT PERSONNEL SERVICES
The Dean of Students at Savannah State College is responsible to
the President for the over-all administration of the student per-
sonnel program. The Dean of Men and the Dean of Women share with
the Dean of Students the administration of the student personnel
program with primary responsibility as it pertains to male and fe-
male students respectively.
In the broadest sense, the student personnel program is concerned
first with the life of the student outside the classroom. This
definition, however, is inadequate as every person involved in
student personnel work at the College, as is true of the faculty and
other administrative officers, is deeply interested in the academic
work of our students. The intellectual development of the student is
and must continue to be the primary objective of Savannah State
College.
The rationale for having an effective student personnel program is
that among those engaged in the process of learning, the students
who are best equipped to gain most from individual study are the
ones who have been properly selected for college, are physically and
emotionally healthy, are well-adjusted and strongly motivated, are
pursuing programs of studies suited to their interests, aptitudes, and
abilities, have had minimized their financial and personal problems,
have reasonable recreational and social opportunities, and are
adequately housed and properly fed.
38 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
The purpose of the student personnel program is the establishment
of these optimum conditions for each student. It should be noted,
however, that these objectives are not exclusively the province of the
student personnel staff as the entire faculty and staff are involved in
their fulfillment.
The doors of the office and the services of the student personnel
staff are never closed to those students who need and seek help.
Orientation
The orientation program is under the supervision of the Office of
Student Affairs. It is designed to assist new students in becoming
acquainted with other students, with college regulations, with
routine procedures, with campus traditions, with the opportunities
offered for training here, and with specialized vocational guidance.
This program concentrates on all freshmen and new students en-
tering the College in the first week of the fall quarter. Students
derive from the program their immediate informational needs.
A follow-up course dealing with the psychology of human relation-
ships, required of freshmen and transfer students, is designed to
facilitate the process of total adjustment to college and to guide the
student's thinking in reference to the social forces that affect him
daily.
Counseling and Guidance
A counseling and guidance service is provided for all students
through the offices of the Dean of Students and his staff.
Professional counseling and services are provided students in the
following areas: admissions, scholarships, work aid, health, religious
values, social activities, job placement, and general life planning. Ad-
visors in all departments provide counseling for course registration
and problems that arise in connection with the academic work and
progress of students. The duties of the advisor are to assist the
student in selecting subjects, to aid him in interpreting the
requirements, to guide him in important matters. In case of any
proposed change in his program, a student should consult his advisor,
who will judge the reason for the change and make recommendation
to the Dean of Faculty. However, a student may not change his major
during the registration period, nor during the week before and the
week after registration. 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 curriculum. A request
from the advisor to the student for conference should be complied
with promptly.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 39
Health Services
The college health services are maintained to improve and
safeguard the health of students. These services are under the direct
supervision of the school physician and the school nurse. Medical
examinations, medical care, and health consultations are provided
for all students. Harris Infirmary, a modern, eighteen-bed building,
is provided for students who require treatment or confinement for
minor illnesses.
Veterans Services
The Veterans Counselor is responsible for assisting veterans and
dependent children (orphans of veterans) in receiving benefits from
the Veterans Administration. He collects and disseminates in-
formation to veterans and dependent children, and counsels with
them throughout the year about regulations and directives peculiar
to their status.
All the curricula of Savannah State College are fully approved by
the Veterans Administration for veterans and dependent children.
Veterans and dependent children are urged to report personally to
the Veterans Counselor immediately after their admission to the
College.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Savannah State College contributes to the attainment of a well-
rounded education by providing many opportunities for students to
participate in a wide range of significant activities. Through the ef-
forts of organized groups, programs are planned for the social, re-
ligious, and cultural advancement of the college community.
Student Government Association
The Student Government Association, composed of representatives
of all classes, works with the administration in the governance of the
college. It works also with the various campus organizations and
sponsors projects for the general welfare of the student body.
Music
The choral society, band, and men's glee club are open for mem-
bership to all students interested in music. Grants-in-aid are
available in limited amounts for qualified applicants. These groups
perform not only locally but also throughout the state and country.

sored by the conference. Savannah State College also holds mem-
bership in two national athletic associations, NCAA and NAIA.
Qualified instructors in the Department of Health, Physical
Education, and Recreation provide training in the several aspects of
the required activity program. Recreational activities, social dan-
cing, swimming and free exercise activities are encouraged and cen-
tered in this area. The department makes every effort to provide
wholesome recreational activities for all students.
Cultural Activities
To complement formal education on the campus, the College
provides many activities for cultural enrichment. Student assemblies,
institutes, motion pictures, lectures, art exhibitions, drama, forums,
hobby groups, and tours contribute to the general enrichment of the
college community.
The Committee on Campus Life brings to the campus renowned
concert artists. All students are encouraged to attend these formal
activities which afford inspiring association with outstanding per-
sonalities.
The Department of Fine Arts sponsors several musical programs
and art exhibitions during the school year. The Christmas and Spring
Concerts, together with the annual Fine Arts Festival celebrating
National Music Week during the first week in May, are significant
events in the cultural program of the College.
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Work Assignments
Worthy and industrious students may help to meet college expenses
through part-time employment, provided they maintain satisfactory
scholastic averages. These work opportunities include such jobs as
clerical and stenographic aide, library aide, waiting tables, pantry
and kitchen aide, and skilled and unskilled maintenance work.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 43^

carefully:
1. No student should attempt to enter Savannah State College
unless he is prepared to pay the major part of his total college ex-
penses.
2. All students are required to pay all entrance expenses when they
register. Money earned through part-time work may thereafter be
credited to the monthly account.
Students are assigned to work only after they have been admitted

TRANSIENT STUDENTS
A student who has taken work in a college may apply for the

transient students only when their acceptance will cause no hardship
or inconvenience to the institution or its regularly enrolled students.

prescribe the types of evidence that an applicant must submit in or-
der to establish qualifications for admission.
IRREGULAR OR SPECIAL STUDENTS
Persons who desire to enroll in a course or courses but who do not
intend to complete a specific degree or other program may register as
special students. Any special student who decides subsequently to
enroll in a regular college program must then satisfy all of the
requirements for regular admission.
OTHER POLICIES REGARDING ADMISSION
When the application, necessary transcripts, College Board scores,
and any other required information on an applicant are found to be
complete and in order, the applicant will be evaluated in terms of his
test scores and grades, scholastic aptitude, social and psychological
52 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
adjustment, and the probability of his completing the requirements
for the desired degree. Savannah State College reserves the right, in
every case, to reject any applicant whose general records and attitude
do not indicate a probability of success in the Savannah State
College environment, notwithstanding the satisfaction of other
requirements. Applicants must comply with such other procedures,
including personal interviews and psychological or other tests as may
be necessary to determine the applicant's sense of social respon-
sibility, adjustment of personality, sturdiness of character, and
general fitness for admission to Savannah State College.
In order that the appraisal of a student's ability and fitness for
college work may be as nearly accurate as possible, officials of Savan-
nah State College will study carefully all the information, including
biographical data that is submitted by the applicant. Officials of
Savannah State College shall have the right to require each applicant
for admission to appear for an interview before his application is
finally accepted or rejected. If an interview is required, the Director
of Admissions will notify the applicant of the time and place in
which the interview will be conducted.
The ultimate decision as to whether an applicant shall be accepted
or rejected will be made by the Director of Admissions, subject to the
applicant's right of appeal as provided by the bylaws of Savannah
State College and of the Board of Regents of the University System.
POLICY REGARDING NON-RESIDENTS
Applicants who are non-residents of Georgia will be admitted sub-
ject to all regulations governing resident students except that an ad-
ditional fee will be assessed because of non-residence. Determination
of non-resident status will be made in accordance with the revised
rules on classification of non-residents issued by the Board of
Regents of the University System of Georgia on December 12, 1963. A
statement of these rules follows:
1. A student who is under 21 years of age at the time he seeks to
register or re-register at the beginning of any quarter will be ac-
cepted as a resident student only upon a showing by him that his sup-
porting parent or guardian has been legally domiciled in Georgia for
a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the date of
registration or re-registration.
2. In the event that a legal resident of Georgia is appointed as
guardian of a non-resident minor, such minor will not be permitted
to register as a resident student until the expiration of one year from
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 53
the date of appointment, and then only upon proper showing that
such appointment was not made to avoid payment of the non-
resident fee.
3. If a student is over 21 years of age, he may register as a resident
student only upon a 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 a student
in any educational institution in Georgia may not be counted as a
part of the twelve months' domicile and residence herein required
when it appears that the student came into the State and remained
in the State for the primary purpose of attending a school or college.
4. A full-time faculty member in an institution of the University
System, his wife, and minor children may register for courses on the
payment of resident fees, even though the faculty member has not
been in residence in Georgia for a period of twelve months.
5. If the parents or legal guardian of a minor changes residence 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 payment of resident fees. After the expiration of the
twelve months' period the student may continue his registration only
upon the payment of fees at the non-resident rate.
6. Military personnel stationed in Georgia, and their dependents,
may become eligible to enroll in institutions of the University
System as resident students provided they file with the institution in
which they wish to enroll the following materials:
(a) A statement from the appropriate military officials as to
the applicant's "home of record";
(b) Evidence that applicant, if over 21 years of age, is eligible
to vote in Georgia;
(c) Evidence that applicant, if under 21 years of age, is the
child of parents who are eligible to vote in Georgia;
(d) Evidence that applicant, or his parents filed an income tax
return in Georgia during the preceding year;
(e) Other evidence showing that a legal domicile has been
established in Georgia.
54 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
7. Foreign students who attend institutions of the University
System under the sponsorship of recognized civic or religious groups
may be enrolled upon the payment of resident fees, provided the
number of such foreign students in any one institution does not ex-
ceed the quota approved by the Board of Regents for that institution.
8. All aliens shall be classified as non-resident students; provided,
however, that an alien who is living in this country under a visa per-
mitting permanent residence or who has filed with the proper federal
immigration authorities a Declaration of Intention to become a
citizen of the United States shall have the same privilege of
qualifying for resident status for fee purposes as has a citizen of the
United States.
9. Teachers in the public schools of Georgia and their dependents
may enroll as students in University System institutions on payment
of resident fees, when it appears that such teachers have resided in
Georgia for nine months, that they were engaged in teaching during
this nine months' period, and that they have been employed to teach
in Georgia during the ensuing school year.
10. In the event that a woman who is a 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

60 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
ATTENDANCE
In classroom exercises, laboratory, and class-related activities,
Savannah State College provides the necessary facilities, materials,
and conditions for the effective training of its students. It is essen-
tial that each student share fully in the educational experiences
which are provided. There is no compulsory class attendance at the
College for students above the freshman level who are in good
standing. However, each student is responsible for all class work un-
dertaken in a particular class during the quarter. It is, therefore,
strongly urged that every student make every effort to be present at
each class session. Students who are required to attend classes may
have two unexcused absences for each credit hour that a course
carries.
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 and
quality point values are:
Grade
Meaning
Quality Point Value
A
Excellent
4 per credit hour
B
Good
3 per credit hour
C
Average
2 per credit hour
D
Poor
1 per credit hour
F
Failure
per credit hour
All courses in the major or minor in which the grade of D is earned
must be repeated. The grade of D, like higher grades, is final and can
not be raised by make-up work or examination. When a course is
repeated, credit may be received only once, with the highest grade
only being used to compute the cumulative average.
The grade "P" indicates that the student has failed to meet the
minimum requirements of the course.
Credit toward graduation may not be earned more than once in the
same course. To be granted a degree from Savannah State College
every student shall have a minimum cumulative average of "C" (2.00).
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 61
GRADES FOR INCOMPLETE COURSES
AND
WITHDRAWAL FROM CLASSES
The College uses letters to denote incomplete courses and with-
drawal from classes. These grades have no quality point value.
The grade I indicates that the student has not completed a small
portion of the requirements of the course. It denotes further:
a. That the student remained in the class until at least ten days
prior to the conclusion of the quarter;
b. That, though incomplete, the student's work while he remained
in the class was of D grade or better; and
c. That either by examination or additional work the student may
complete the course on or before the days scheduled for removal of in-
complete grades, during the next quarter of residence.
If the next quarter of residence is a summer quarter, the
student must remove the I grade during this quarter.
The grade W is given by the instructor when a student withdraws
officially from a course on or before the last day for dropping cour-
ses. The grade WP (withdrew while passing) is given by the instructor
when a student withdraws officially from school and is doing
satisfactory work in a course at the time of his withdrawal. The grade
WF (withdrew while failing) is given by the instructor when a
student withdraws officially from school and is doing unsatisfactory
work in a course at the time of his withdrawal.
A student may withdraw from a course at anytime during the quar-
ter up to two weeks prior to the first day of final examinations. With-
drawal must be done formally and all necessary forms must be filled
out and turned in to the proper officers. The grade F is given by the
instructor when a student withdraws from a course or from school
without giving formal notice. This is not the only meaning of the
grade F, because it may also mean that the student failed to meet the
minimum requirements of the course.
A student who fails to take the final examination in a course and
who is failing in this course at the time of the final examination
shall be given the grade of F by the instructor.
62 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
PROCEDURE FOR WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE
Students at Savannah State College are regarded as young adults
who are capable of making mature decisions, with minimum coun-
seling, about their educational plans. Accordingly, any student who
feels that circumstances require his withdrawal from the College may
do so by filing the appropriate forms in the Office of the Dean of
Students. The Dean of Students will counsel with the student in an
effort to determine whether the circumstances are such that the
College can provide a remedy which will make it possible for the
student to remain in school. If such remedy cannot be afforded, the
Dean of Students, or his designated representative, will formally ap-
prove the request for withdrawal and forward the appropriate forms
to the offices of the Dean of Faculty, the Registrar, and the Comp-
troller.
Students not able to follow this procedure should write or have
someone write to the Dean of Students, requesting permission to
withdraw. Students who withdraw without giving formal notice will
forfeit claims for any refunds.
CHANGES IN GRADES
Once an instructor has reported a grade to the Registrar, the in-
structor may change the grade only under the following conditions:
1. An instructor may change an I (Incomplete) to any grade on
designated dates within the quarter when the student is next
enrolled in residence. An I automatically becomes F if it is not
removed on these designated dates within the quarter when the
student is next enrolled in residence.
2. An instructor may change any grade to another grade upon
presenting to the Dean of the College conclusive documentary proof
that the previous grade was reported through error.
MID-QUARTER GRADES
Each faculty member submits to the Office of the Registrar a
report of all deficient grades (D's and F's). The Office of the
Registrar in turn sends copies of such reports to the students, their
parents or guardian(s), and to departmental heads.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 63
CALCULATING THE SCHOLASTIC AVERAGE
A student's cumulative grade-point average is determined by
dividing the number of quality points by the number of quarter hours
of courses taken. In calculating the cumulative averages, only the
highest grade made in a repeated course may be used.
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
attempted for which final grades are recorded. The following system
of classification is observed:
Freshman ( 0-45 hours) Junior (90-134 hours)
Sophomore (46-89 hours) Senior (135 hours and above)
STUDENT LOAD
Under ordinary circumstances, a student may not register in any
quarter for an academic credit load exceeding the normal
requirement of his classification and major. As indicated under
Recognition for Excellence in Scholarship exceptions are permissible,
however, to superior students. In addition, a candidate for
graduation who has no scholastic deficiency may enroll for credit in
one additional course, if the total load does not exceed twenty quar-
ter hours and failure to take 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 ap-
proval of both the student's adviser and the Dean of Faculty.
All regular and terminal students are required to pursue courses in
the prescribed order. Special students will pursue the courses agreed
upon in conference with their advisers.
Deficiencies in required courses take precedence over other courses.
Any student who earns a D or an F in a major, minor, professional
education, or special subject requirement must forthwith repeat the
course.
SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS
Savannah State College is operated for students who demonstrate
seriousness of purpose and the ability and disposition to profit by
64 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
college work. Students who fail to fulfill the scholarship
requirements of the institution are subject to scholastic discipline.
At the end of each quarter the Office of the Registrar computes
cumulative grade-point averages in order to determine the academic
standing of all students in residence. At that time the Registrar shall
notify the Dean of Faculty prior to notification of students and their
parents or guardians of the academic probation, suspension, or
dismissal of students. In addition, he shall notify other appropriate
personnel of this action.
The following regulations govern scholarship standards at Savan-
nah State College:
1. Freshmen (0-45 hours) or transfer students who fail to achieve a
cumulative average of at least 1.00 after one quarter of residence will
not be permitted to enroll during the succeeding quarter. (Grades
received in Basic English and mathematics courses will not be con-
sidered in computing grade point average).
2. Freshmen who achieve a minimum cumulative grade-point
average of 1.00 but not more than 1.50 will be placed on academic
probation.
3. Upperclassmen (46 hours and above) who fail to achieve or main-
tain a cumulative average of at least 2.00 will be placed on academic
probation.
4. A student on probation (1) may not register for less than ten
hours if resident student (five hours if commuting student) nor more
than thirteen hours; (2) must repeat all courses in which he earned
the grade of F that are prescribed in his curriculum and all courses in
his major and minor concentration and Freshman English in which
he earned the grade of D; (3) must report to his academic adviser for
counseling service immediately after being notified of his
probationary status, and (4) will not be permitted to represent the
College or hold office in any college organization.
5. A student on probation whose cumulative average decreases will
not be permitted to register for the succeeding quarter.
6. If the student on probation does not remove his probationary
status in two succeeding quarters in residence, or maintain a
minimum grade point average of 2.50 for each of the two succeeding
quarters, he shall be suspended for one quarter. If a student main-
tains a minimum grade point average of 2.50 while on probation for
two succeeding quarters, his probationary period will be extended as
long as he maintains this grade point average each successive quarter
enrolled.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 65
READMISSION
The following standards govern the readmission of students who
have been suspended for academic reasons:
1. Readmission applications are processed by the Committee on
Admissions in consultation with the chairman of the applicant's
major field, and its decision shall be final. Requests for readmission
should be addressed to the Registrar of the College.
2. The College reserves the right to deny readmission to any
student who has been suspended for academic reasons. A student may
apply for readmission in any quarter after he has been out for one
quarter. Conditions for readmission are: (1) the filing of an ap-
plication at least thirty days prior to the beginning of the quarter in
which the student expects to resume enrollment; (2) passing of a read-
mission test by the student which is administered by the College; and
(3) submission by the student of evidence of increased motivation
and maturity.
3. Applications for readmission are considered by the Committee
on Admission on the basis of detailed information concerning the
cause of failure, academic goals, entrance tests, college grades
previously earned, length of absence, motivation, outside com-
mitments, and recommendations from appropriate personnel.
4. A student readmitted must achieve and maintain a scholastic
average appropriate to his class level in all courses that he must
repeat and in all new courses that he pursues. He will be allowed
three quarters to remove his probationary status, however, if he
maintains a minimum grade point average of 2.50 each quarter of his
probationary period, his probation may be extended. Failure to fulfill
these conditions will result in dismissal. One calendar year after
dismissal, a student may petition the Academic Council of the
College for readmission if he can convincingly demonstrate that he
has had a change of attitude toward his academic responsibilities.
However, the student should understand that such permission is
rarely granted.
RECOGNITION OF EXCELLENCE IN SCHOLARSHIP
Persons who have not been subject to disciplinary action while
earning superior grades, and who, likewise, have not incurred any
academic deficiency, are eligible for honors status as here indicated:
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 Honor
Roll.
66 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
2. Students who maintain an average of 3.50 or higher, in a full
program in a quarter will have their names placed on the Dean's List
for the following quarter.
3. Students who maintain an average of 3.00 during any quarter
may secure permission to take additional hours during the following
quarter, the total not to exceed twenty hours. Additionally, students
whose general average is 3.00 or better may be permitted to take quar-
ter hours in excess of a normal load up to a limit of 20 quarter hours.
GRADUATION HONORS
Graduation with honors is based upon completion of a minimum
attendance period of six quarters and completion of at least ninety
quarter hours at Savannah State College. In addition, students who
graduate with honors must attain the following grade-point averages
for the entire period of college attendance:
Cum Laude 3.00
Magna Cum Laude 3.40
Summa Cum Laude 3.75
ACADEMIC SERVICES
DEVELOPMENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAM
The college maintains a Developmental Education Center which
provides educational experiences designed primarily for entering
freshmen whose reading, language, and computational skills are not
adequate enough to enable them to engage in a college program with
a reasonable chance of success. Upon entry, freshmen are tested to
determine their competence in these areas. The results are used as
the basis for assigning students to basic courses in English,
mathematics and reading.
If the score of a student is sufficiently high in the Mathematics
and/or Humanities area (s), he will be placed in regular Mathematics
and English courses and will not be required to take Math or Hum.
106, the basic courses. If his score is high enough, he may be exempted
from Math/Hum. 107 and go directly to Math/Hum. 108. In this case,
the student will be awarded 5 quarter hours of credit for each course
from which he is exempt.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 67
For the student who requires no basic courses, the total number of
quarter hours for graduation will be the total number of hours as
listed in the institutional catalog for his program for the year of his
entry. For the student who must take basic courses, the total hourly
requirement will be increased by five hours for each basic course un-
dertaken.
Basic courses for freshmen are labeled Humanities 105, Basic
Reading; Humanities 106, Basic English; and Math 106, Basic
Mathematics. Each basic course carries five quarter hours of credit.
CORRESPONDENCE AND OFF-CAMPUS CLASSES
In addition to instruction on the campus, Savannah State College
is authorized to offer college correspondence courses and off-campus
evening classes. Such programs have become recognized services of
public education, reflecting a sense of obligation to those who cannot
undertake resident instruction and to those who do not require
resident instruction for personal growth and enrichment.
Correspondence Study
Students registering in correspondence study should meet the
minimal requirements of graduation from an accredited high school.
College correspondence study is designed as an auxiliary to regular
campus classroom study. The courses follow the same general outline
used in the classroom. Study materials and instructors are often the
same as those in residence.
Courses completed in this program and courses completed in a
similar program at recognized institutions will be accepted for credit
toward graduation at Savannah State College under the following
conditions:
1. Not more than 45 quarter hours may be earned in correspon-
dence.
2. Not more than 50% of the required courses in the major or minor
may be completed in correspondence.
3. Courses in the professional education sequence may not be taken
in correspondence study.
4. Courses may not be taken in correspondence study to remove
deficiencies earned in residence.
68 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
5. Correspondence courses may not be taken by students who have
completed 135 or more quarter hours.
Students desiring to have correspondence credit counted toward
graduation should obtain written permission therefor from the Dean
of the College and present this statement to the Correspondence
Study Office.
Off-campus Evening Classes
Upon sufficient demand, regular college courses are offered away
from the campus. Course content, hours required, and credit are the
same as in courses taken on the campus.

The main purpose of the Division of Business Administration is to
provide for students a sound educational foundation for socially ef-
fective and gainful employment in the business world. Specifically,
through curricular offerings, supervised work experience, co-
curricular activities, and individual counseling for careful selection
of courses in accordance with student aptitudes and interests, the
Division prepares students for:
1. Employment as accountants, administrative level secretaries,
salesmen, and for mid-management positions in business;
2. Operation, management, and ownership of business enterprises;
3. Teaching business subjects in the secondary school;
4. Further study in accounting, business economics, general business,
business education, and other specialized areas in business.
To realize these aims, the Division offers courses leading to the
Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of
Business Administration, and a terminal program leading to a cer-
tificate of proficiency in various phases of office administration.
DEGREE PROGRAMS

A student in business administration may pursue a major in one
of seven general areas: (1) Accounting, (2) general business ad-
ministration, (3) business education, (4) economics, (5) office ad-
ministration, and in cooperation with Armstrong State College: (6)
finance or (7) management-marketing. In addition, persons desiring
to become certified as teachers of business subjects on the secondary
level will complete all requirements for the major in the Division of

as long as the total number of hours does not exceed the maximum
load per quarter.
78 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
In the cooperative major areas, required courses offered only at
Armstrong State College are indicated with an asterisk in the
curriculum sequence listing.
BUSINESS EDUCATION. In cooperation with the Division of Edu-
cation, three teacher certification areas are available for business

Liberal Arts Core: 94
Basic Business Core: 33
Professional Education Core: 41
Restricted Electives: (Teaching Option) 27

in all business subjects, except business data processing (minimum
hours: 60).
Option 2. Bookkeeping and Business Management qualifying one to

business data processing (minimum hours: 60).
Option 3. Business Data Processing and Accounting qualifying a

business education and office administration. Satisfaction
of such proficiency may be ascertained through a typewriting test. To
prepare for the proficiency test requirements (a minimum of 30
words per minute), a student may elect to register for one or more
courses in typewriting as a part of his free electives. Certification of
typewriting proficiency shall be filed with the Registrar. Credit
hours, however, shall not be awarded unless the student is officially
enrolled in a formal course.
ACADEMIC COUNSELING. Students undertaking work toward a
degree in the Division obtain contractual programs of work upon en-
trance to the Division at the beginning of the Sophomore year. This
document lists requirements, optional electives, and blocks of courses
in the major area of specialization from which the student may select
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
79
to fulfill requirements for graduation. The curriculum contract is
used as a guide for counseling and at each registration period until
graduation. A copy is maintained in the student's personnel folder in
the Division; one copy is filed with the Registrar; and one is retained
by the student. Inasmuch as there are broad areas of electives, both
restricted, and non-restricted, it is essential that the student seek
counseling and observe the sequential arrangement of requirements
before selecting courses for periodic registration.
The Division Chairman is general adviser to all students in the
Division of Business Administration, and special academic advisers
are assigned to each student upon entrance to the Division on the
basis of specialization areas and freedom of choice by the student.
At the beginning of the Senior year, the student files an ap-
plication for the degree with the Registrar, duly approved by the
Division Chairman, and includes a listing of courses completed,
grades and quality points earned, and a record of all other college
requirements.
FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE REQUIREMENTS
The major part of the work in the freshman and sophomore years
consists of general education. The freshman listings are in keeping
with the common freshman year adopted by the College. The purpose
of these courses is to lay a broad foundation of cultural work for the
student prior to his undertaking any specialized work.
Following are freshman and sophomore courses for students who
plan to pursue a major in the Division of Business Administration.
Business Education listings appear in the Teacher Education
Curriculums under the Department of Secondary Education.

PURPOSES OF THE DIVISION
The Division of Education serves three major purposes: (1) in
cooperation with the College-wide Teacher Education Committee and
the Georgia Council on Teacher Education and Certification, it
spearheads the process of continuous planning, experimentation, and
evaluation of the total teacher education program; (2) it assumes
leadership responsibility for the selection, guidance, and professional
preparation oi students who will teach in elementary and secondary
schools; (3) it provides an adequate foundation for advanced study for
persons who plan to continue their educational preparation beyond
the baccalaureate degree.
COLLEGE-WIDE PROVISION FOR TEACHER EDUCATION
In the Division of Education there are three departments: the
Department of Elementary Education, the Department of Health,
Physical Education and Recreation, and the Department of Secon-
dary Education. The preparation of teachers is, however, a College-
wide commitment. Because every division and department at the
College is involved in teacher education in some subject matter field,
this function engages the constant interest and efforts, staff resour-
ces, and facilities of the entire institution.
94 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
RECOMMENDATION FOR THE DEGREE AND A
TEACHING CERTIFICATE
All teacher education programs at Savannah State College have
earned five-year approval from the Georgia Division of Teacher
Education and Certification, State Department of Education and
hold ten-year endorsement from the National Council for Ac-
creditation of Teacher Education. The programs include: elementary
education; secondary education with concentrations in business
education, English, French, industrial arts education, mathematics,
science, social studies, Spanish, and trade and industrial education;
elementary and secondary education: (grades 1-12) in art education,
health, physical education, and recreation, and music education.
These curricula lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science in
Education. Completion of either of these programs entitles the
graduate to be recommended to the Georgia Division of Certification
for the four-year professional certificate. Reciprocal certification
within many states is possible through NCATE accreditation for the
graduate who receives unqualified recommendation.
SUPPLEMENTAL CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS
In addition to the baccalaureate teacher education programs listed
in the foregoing section, the College provides three supplementary
certification programs. Descriptions of the programs follow.
EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION
This program prepares and certifies graduates to teach in kin-
dergartens, nursery schools, and in grades 1 through 3. To pursue this
curriculum the student must enroll in the elementary education
curriculum and follow the professional education sequence. During
the junior and senior years students will take the child development
sequence of courses. The teaching practicum will be done in an ap-
proved kindergarten. The required sequence follows:

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, PHYSICAL
EDUCATION, AND RECREATION
RAYMOND W. HOPSON, Head
Geraldine Abernathy Ella W. Fisher
Frank Ellis, Jr. John H. Myles
Albert E. Frazier Hattie B. Rivers
Altomease Magwood Richard K. Washington
The essential aim of the Department of Health, Physical
Education, and Recreation is to provide professional training for
pre-service and in-service teachers of health, physical education, and
recreation in the elementary and secondary schools. The department
encourages only potentially qualified students to undertake
professional training in this field. It seeks also to provide instruction
for all students in the basic principles of health and recreational ac-
tivity needed for wholesome living.
In pursuance of the foregoing aims this department provides a
fourfold program of instruction. For students who plan to become
professional workers in the field of health, physical education, and
recreation either in schools or in other agencies the department
offers a sequence of specialized training leading to the degree of
Bachelor of Science in Education, with a concentration in health,
physical education, and recreation. In addition, it provides basic
training in supervision of one or more phases of a comprehensive
health, physical education, and recreation program in the schools of
Georgia for all students enrolled in teacher education curricula at
Savannah State College. This phase of the work is provided either in
selected specialized courses or in a minor sequence.
The department provides instruction in the fundamental concepts
and activities of health, physical education, and recreation as an
essential phase of general education for all students enrolled at the
college. It serves the college community through instruction and
leadership in the intramural program. The intramural program is, in
effect, a laboratory in which students enjoy practicing the skills
learned in general service courses and compete with their peers.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENT FOR ALL
FRESHMEN AND SOPHOMORES
During the freshman and sophomore years all students are required
to participate in health and physical education activities. The
satisfactory completion of this work is a prerequisite for graduation.
Within the six quarters of work, one quarter is devoted to swimming;
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE

and five are seasonal activities, including indoor and outdoor games,
gymnastics, etc.
All students must wear the regulation uniform at each class
meeting, or credit will not be given.

DIVISION OF HUMANITIES
HOWARD M. JASON, Chairman
PHILOSOPHY AND PURPOSES
The humanities embrace those skills, understandings, and ap-
preciations which make for a well-rounded life. The humanities are
concerned with humane values, exalting the life of man. Thus, the
impact of mind upon mind great minds of the past upon sensitive
minds of the present constantly points the way to the good life.
Specifically, the Division of Humanities provides opportunity for
study and analyses of the language, literature, art, and music of the
world. The study and analyses are aimed at motivating the student to
expand his aesthetic horizon, to enliven his spirit of inventiveness
and individuality, and to acquire a finer appreciation and un-
derstanding of the human spirit.
This division comprises the Department of English, the Depart-
ment of Fine Arts, and the Department of Modern Languages.

The ultimate aim of the Department of English is to develop in the
student a quality of mind marked by constructive, imaginative
inquiry and creative thinking. The Department aims to help the
student develop these aspects of his personality and intelligence: (1)
oral and written language proficiency, including an awareness of
*On leave
128 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
linguistic plurality; (2) critical knowledge and consequent
appreciation of the literary arts in their various modes, including the
written, the oral, and the cinematic; (3) affective, aesthetic, and in-
tellectual flexibility and perceptiveness; and (4) humane spirit and
values.
The student who has successfully pursued English as his major area
of study should be able to distinguish between genuinely great
literature and that which is less than great. He should have a critical
acquaintance with a representative number of masterpieces in
American, English, and world literature; he should be aware of the
seminal ideas, concepts, and archetypes informing these works; and
he should have some facility in applying the major critical ap-
proaches to literature. The English major is expected to demonstrate
facility and taste in expression, to have a satisfactory knowledge of
the history and nature of the English language, and to be cognizant
of dialectal variety in American English. In addition to the
proficiencies already listed, the English Education major should have
knowledge of the major methods of teaching the language arts and
skills, including an awareness of the most recent approaches to
teaching rhetoric and composition and a knowledge of modern trends
in teaching literature and language.
PLAN OF STUDY
All freshman students are given a placement test in English. They
are then grouped on the basis of achievement on the test. Superior
students may be permitted to register in Humanities 108. Others are
assigned to appropriate sections of Humanities 106 or 107.
THE ENGLISH MAJOR

or 332); one course in English literature (210 or 211), three seminars in
English and one course in linguistics.
A student majoring in English language and literature will com-
plete at least fifty-four quarter hours in language, composition,
literature, and speech, in addition to freshman English.
An English major who expects to teach English must take one
period course, one course in American literature, one course in
English literature, one course in linguistics, one genre course, one
course in world literature for majors, and two seminars in English,
and two electives in English, in addition to freshman English, ad-

DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAGES
HOWARD M. JASON, Head
Eusebio M. Valle Althea V. Morton
Christopher D. Koch
The aims of the Department of Modern Languages are (1) to
develop the ability to communicate in a foreign language; (2) to in-
still respect for other peoples and other cultures; (3) to develop an ap-
preciation for the artistic expressions which are found in other
languages; and (4) to bring about a greater awareness of our own
cultural heritage. Underlying these aims is the ultimate goal of
preparation for a more effective life.
LANGUAGE PROGRAMS
To realize these aims the Department offers instruction in the
foreign languages (French, German, and Spanish) which are
generally required in the several curricula of the college. In addition,
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 143
it offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in
Education with a concentration in French or Spanish. The language
teaching program requires completion of a minimum of forty quarter
hours in one foreign language, beyond the elementary courses. A
student completing the degree requirements with one of these
sequences may be recommended for certification to teach the
language. The programs for French and Spanish teachers are listed
under caption of the Division of Education.
This Department offers also a minor in French and a minor in
Spanish. The French minor comprises French 241, 242, 243, 341, 342,
343. The Spanish minor consists of Spanish 261, 262, 263, 361, 362, 363.
THE GENERAL REQUIREMENT
The general modern language requirement is one year (15 quarter
hours) of acceptable work in one language. Students who have had no
foreign language and those who present fewer than two units of high
school credit normally take the elementary course. If a student has
earned two or more units in a foreign language in high school and
continues the study of the same language, it is recommended that he
take an examination administered by the Department for
placement purposes. When a student begins the study of a foreign
language at the intermediate level, two courses are sufficient to meet
the language requirement for graduation.

The work in the Department of Chemistry is intended to serve four
purposes: (1) to provide a thorough foundation in the general courses
for students who seek an understanding of the methods and
achievements of the chemist; (2) to include the needed semi-
specialized preparation for students who are majoring in home
economics and engineering technology; and (3) to afford training for
persons who plan to teach science in the secondary school; (4) to in-
clude preprofessional training for students who intend to study den-
tistry, medicine, and the like, and for those who plan to enter
graduate school.
The Department of Chemistry offers the usual general courses, a
minor sequence, and courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of
Science with a major in chemistry.
For those who plan to teach science in the secondary school, the
Division of Natural Sciences provides a general science con-
centration. The curriculum is listed under caption of the Department
of Secondary Education.

consists of three parts: the college major, Navy specified college cour-
ses, and Navy professional courses.
There is a requirement for completion of course work leading to a
baccalaureate degree in a major field offered by the college.
Navy specified courses are in two categories, i.e., those that are
normally taught by the college faculties and Navy professional sub-
jects taught by Naval or Marine Officers.
MAJOR GOALS
The major goals of the NROTC Program are:
(1) To assist in the education of the midshipman in a major field of
study of interest to the Navy or Marine Corps leading to a bac-
calaureate degree.
(2) To provide the midshipman with the fundamental concepts and
principles of Naval Science and with the professional Naval
knowledge necessary to establish a sound basis for his future
growth as a Naval or Marine Corps Officer.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 171
(3) To prepare the midshipman for service with the highest sense
of honor and integrity as a commissioned officer; to cultivate the
essential elements of military leadership; and to foster the growth
of a strong sense of loyalty and dedication to his service and to the
Nation.
(4) To prepare the midshipman to undertake successfully in later
periods of his career, advanced/continuing education in a field of
application and interest to the Naval Service.
(5) To inject the values of civilian higher education into the Naval
Service by utilizing the expertise of civilian faculty instruction
where applicable.

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 Division of Social Sciences contributes to the realization of
good citizenship by fostering three aims of higher education: (1)
assisting students to attain those competencies and attitudes essen-
tial to all persons in a world of interdependent relationships; (2)
preparing students for advanced study in fields such as social work,
sociology, history, political science, and criminal justice; and (3)
preparing students for teaching the social studies in the secondary
school.
THE CHOICE OF A MAJOR
In conformance with the foregoing aims this division provides
three curricula. Curriculum One leads to the B.S. Degree in the social
sciences with a concentration in history. Curriculum Two leads to the
B.S. Degree with a concentration in sociology; Curriculum Three
leads to the B.S. Degree in Criminal Justice.
The program for persons who plan to teach social studies in the
secondary school is listed under caption of the Department of Secon-
dary Education.
The curricula of this division are designed for those who definitely
do not wish to qualify for a certificate to teach in the secondary
school. Persons interested in careers in law, government service,
diplomatic service, and research in general, should choose Curriculum
I. Persons interested in careers as social workers, probation officers,
vocational counselors, camp counselors, employment interviewers,
juvenile court workers, and officials in the immigration service,
should choose Curriculum II. Persons interested in careers in general
law enforcement, and/or security, should choose Curriculum III.
This division discourages substitution for the required courses in
the concentration. When such approval is granted, it must be
reviewed and approved by the Dean of Faculty before becoming ef-
fective.

not prepare graduates for employment as skilled or semi-skilled
workers in industry. On the contrary, it provides instruction in a
variety of industrial shop activities. This instruction, augmented by
appropriate general and professional education, prepares graduates
to teach industrial arts in the secondary school.
The trade and industrial education program is designed for those
who plan to teach trade and industrial subjects on a vocational basis
in the secondary and area vocational-technical schools. In order to
pursue this program one must have learned an occupation in an area

Students in the cooperative program work in industry and attend
classes at the college during alternating quarters or as arranged with
an employer and are required to maintain creditable records, both in
school and industry, in order to continue in this program. Persons in
this program are considered by the college to be regularly enrolled
students while they are employed in industry, therefore, they may
not enroll in classes at any educational institution during the em-
ployment period. Students must observe all applicable regulations of
the employing company and must consider themselves employees of
the company while on-the-job.
Students pursuing this program will take five or more years to
complete their requirements for the Bachelor's degree, and at the
conclusion of the program they are not obligated to accept em-
ployment with cooperating companies and neither are the companies
obligated to offer them employment.

Engineering technology embraces the physical sciences, math-
ematics, and the practices of modern industry which are utilized in
the design and construction of the machines, structures, highways,
power sources, communication systems, and materials needed to
maintain a highly civilized society. The activities of engineering
technology are concerned with translating the concepts and theories
of professional engineers and scientists into actual devices and
products by using laboratory tests to provide data for rational
designs. These tests are followed by interpretations of data and
preparation of working drawings for use by skilled craftsmen who
produce the devices and products.
Thus, to prepare men and women with technical knowledge and
skills essential to modern society, the Department of Engineering
Technology offers courses in civil, electronics, and mechanical
engineering technology. Each of the following programs leads to the
degree of Bachelor of Science.
CIVIL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY
The curriculum in civil engineering technology is designed to
provide ample instruction in those areas of knowledge required for
successful performance in these capacities:
Architectural and Structural Draftsman and Designer plans,
designs, and supervises construction of frame, steel, and concrete
structures; makes architectural inspections and appraisals for ar-
chitects and builders.
Highway Engineering Technician collects and tests soil samples,
concrete and other materials to ascertain their physical charac-
teristics for use in highway construction; establishes the location and
measurements of points, elevations, lines, areas and contours of land
needed for highway construction and prepares hard copy or rough
draft drawings of same.
Estimator determines quantities and costs of materials and labor
required to erect structures.

DEPARTMENT OF HOME ECONOMICS
EVANEL R. TERRELL, Head
Mollie N. Curtright Teresa A. Anthony Martha M. Corley
PHILOSOPHY AND PURPOSE
The philosophy of the home economics profession is to help
stabilize family life as the core of society and constantly reassesses
values and goals in terms of academic principles of education. To
this end the Department of Home Economics proposes to:
1. Help students develop and clarify values which will help them
acquire understanding, skills and abilities which make a con-
structive contribution to family, home and community life
situations now and in the future;
2. Become knowledgeable and concerned about relationships and
responsibilities to the well-being of people within the greater
society;
3. Prepare students for the professional vocations in dietetics and
institutional management, and textiles and clothing;
4. Provide a child development sequence for elementary education
majors, enabling them to pursue a teaching career in early
childhood education, K-3rd grade; and
5. Provide an interdisciplinary social science major outreach with a
minor in the disadvantaged and handicapped family.
GENERAL PROGRAM
The following four-year academic curricula in the Department of
Home Economics lead to the Bachelor of Science Degree in two areas
of specialization, Dietetics and Institutional Management, and Tex-
tiles and Clothing.
A total of 195 quarter hours is required in all home economics
curricula.

PRE-PROFESSIONAL MOTIVATION AND ENRICHMENT
The perspective of students in the Department of Home Economics
is broadened and enriched through required field trips, junior in-
ternships and experience affiliations with selected food service in-
stitutions and social welfare and textile merchandising establish-
ments. The student defrays the cost of all local and special trips.
Since 1950 the Department of Home Economics has supported and
directed the Savannah State College Chapter of the American Home
Economics Association.
DIETETICS AND INSTITUTIONAL
MANAGEMENT
Students who major in Dietetics and Institutional Management
