HISTORY, PURPOSE, PROGRAMS
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." A commission was appointed to procure
the necessary grounds and buildings, and to prescribe a course of study
that would include those studies required by the Morrill Land-Grant
Acts of 1862 and 1890.
The Commission on the School for Negro Students was designated
as the Board of Trustees for the School, with perpetual succession, sub-
ject to the general Board of Trustees of the University of Georgia. 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. Richard R. Wright, the first principal, and three other in-
structors comprised the faculty. In the following year the school was
moved to its present site, which is approximately five miles southeast
of the Courthouse of Savannah, Georgia, partly in Savannah and par-
tly in Thunderbolt. The school was given the name "The Georgia State
Industrial College for Colored Youths," and its faculty consisted 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 of the
College, enrollment increased from 8 to 585 and the curriculum was
expanded to include a normal division in addition to four years of high
school. Training in agriculture and the mechanical arts also was
begun.
The first women students were admitted as boarders in 1921; the
first summer session was conducted in 1922; and in 1925 the governing
body of the College was changed from a Commission with "perpetual
succession" to a Board of Trustees whose members were appointed for
four year terms. All of these changes occurred during the presidency of
C. G. Wiley, who served from 1921 to 1926.
Under President Benjamin F. Hubert (1926-1947), the entire
academic program was reorganized. The high school and normal
24
departments were discontinued and the school became a four-year
college. In 1931, when the University System was placed under a
Board of Regents, the College began to offer bachelor's degree
programs, with majors in English, the natural sciences, social sciences,
and business administration, as well as in agriculture and home
economics.
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 Ar-
tists Series. Expanded programs of student personnel services 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 Savan-
nah 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.
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 mem-
bership in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In ad-
dition, 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.
25
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 reaccreditation of the
College by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in Decem-
ber, 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 em-
ploying them to meet more effectively the rising aspirations of Black
Americans and other disadvantaged persons for a richer and more
rewarding life.
BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
The campus, conprising 136 acres, presents a unique setting of
natural beauty. Among its 40 buildings are three that were constructed
during the administration of Major Richard R. Wright: Meldrim Hall,
constructed in 1896 but rebuilt in 1926 after it had been burned down;
Hill Hall (1901), and Hammond Hall (1915), both of which have been
extensively renovated in recent years. Meldrim Hall now houses most
of the administrative offices, Hill Hall most of the Federal Programs,
and Hammond Hall is the present site of the Department of Home
Economics.
W. K. Payne Hall, a two-story air-conditioned building, is the main
classroom building. In addition to its fifteen classrooms it also
provides office space for thirty- two instructors (including five depart-
mental offices), data processing facilities, a secretarial center, a
language laboratory, and a reading clinic. Most of the classes in the
Education, English, Social Sciences, Modern Languages, and Special
Studies Departments are held in this facility.
Other classroom buildings, and the Departments that each houses
are: Herty Hall (1937) - Mathematics; Hubert Technical Sciences Cen-
ter (1965)- Engineering Technology, Industrial Arts, and Naval
Science (NROTC); Morgan Hall (1936) and Morgan Hall Annex -
Business Administration, J. F. Kennedy Fine Arts Center (1967)- Fine
Arts; the Griffith-Drew Center for the Natural Sciences (1971)-Biology,
Chemistry, and Physics; Hill Hall - Business Administration and Ex-
tended Services; and Wiley- Wilcox Gymnasium Complex - Physical
Education.
Completing the physical facilities picture of the campus are those
edifices used for activities that are auxiliary, though nonetheless essen-
26
tial, to the instructional process, those used as student residence halls,
and those used by the Plant Operations Staff. The Asa H. Gordon
Library (1965) provides excellent library facilities, including a media
center and an instructional materials center. This air-conditioned
structure is a vital intellectual resource for the College and the
surrounding community. The Martin Luther King-Vanetta Frazier
Student Center (1969) complex houses the Student Personnel Offices,
the College Refectory, and most of the offices directly involved in
student life and student activities. Adams Hall (1931), formerly used
as the College Refectory, is now an annex of the Student Center, while
Powell Hall, constructed in 1932 as the Laboratory School for the
College, is now a Nursery School-Kindergarten, and serves as the
laboratory for the Early Childhood Education Program. Powell also
houses the student-created Ethnic Culture Center.
Residence Halls include two recently completed ones, Smith-Bowens
(1971) for women, and Melvin Bostic Men's Residence Hall (1972).
Both dormitories are air-conditioned, as are A.E. Peacock Hall (1967)
and Lockett Hall (1965). Peacock Hall accommodates 180 men, and
Lockett Hall 180 women. Lester Hall (1965), a dormitory for young
women, completes the list of residence halls now used for housing ac-
commodations. Two other dormitory facilities, Camilla Hubert Hall
(1938), and Wright Hall (1951) are being utilized to provide additional
office space for Plant Operations (Hubert), and for Student Services
and two departmental offices (Wright).
Most of the Plant Operations are directed from the Medgar Evers
Plant Operations Complex, a modern facility that houses the main of-
fices for Plant Operations and the College Warehouse.

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 Ad-
ministration, 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 factors in
view, the College seeks to provide an educational and social en-
vironment 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 individuality to the
end that he can become a creative and active participant 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 continuing
effort to become more democratic at home and more just 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 community 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 participation and involvement in
community development programs.
Consistent with the above philosphy and purpose, the institution has
several major objectives to cultivate the student's intellectual, artistic,
cultural, and physical capacity to earn a respectable and responsible
position in society.
28
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.
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
effectively 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 ex-
tracurricular 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 task of
promoting the student's mental, physical, and emotional maturity.
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 degree of Master of Science in Elementary
29
Education. This program was in operation from June 1968 through
August 1971, graduating a total of forty-one persons.
Beginning with the Fall Quarter of 1971, Savannah State College
joined with its sister institution, Armstrong State College, to develop
and operate a more comprehensive joint program of graduate studies.
Faculty and other resources of the two schools are utilized in operating
the program. Degrees are awarded jointly, with the Presidents of both
institutions signing a specially designed diploma.
The Joint Graduate Program offers instruction leading to the
Master of Business Administration and the Master of Business
Education degrees, the Master of Education degree in Elementary
Education, in Special Education (Behavior Disorders), and in the
secondary education disciplines of Biology, Chemistry, English,
Mathematics, History, and Political Science.
Complete information on admission requirements, courses, and
academic policies may be found in the graduate catalog, which may be
obtained by writing the Associate Dean for Graduate Studies either at
Savannah State College, Savannah, Georgia 31404, or at Armstrong
State College, Savannah, Georgia 31406.

Extended Services
Savannah State College, through its Extended Services Program, of-
fers a variety of services to the urban and inner-city communities. Ex-
tended Services consists of a variety of programs designed to sup-
plement the regular academic program's efforts to meet the growing
needs of these constituents.
The DIVISION OF STUDENT SUPPORT AND SPECIAL
PROGRAMS, one of the largest Extended Services Programs, em-
braces three separate components: TALENT SEARCH, SPECIAL
SERVICES, and UPWARD BOUND.
The TALENT SEARCH component is designed to find young per-
sons with exceptional potential and assist in guiding them toward
realistic goals. The program focuses on uncovering and developing ap-
titudes and developing employment potentials.
SPECIAL SERVICES offers supportive services to currently
enrolled students who need counseling and tutorial assistance. This
component seeks to develop student basic skills in reading,
mathematics and communication. It also serves to stimulate interest in
the general education program of the college as well as developing the
self-image of the students served.
The third component, UPWARD BOUND, seeks to help raise the
academic and cultural levels of eleventh and twelfth grade pupils who
evidence potential for post secondary work but lack the motivation to
prepare themselves to pursue such work successfully. The Upward
Bound Project apprises them of educational opportunities in the form
of scholarships and other aids which are open to them.
Savannah State College operates a VETERANS EDUCATION and
ENRICHMENT PROGRAM which is designed for veterans who have
not completed high school or who have graduated from high school but
do not meet basic requirements for technical and vocational schools or
colleges. It also provides basic education for veteran students who need
refresher training before re-entering high school or college.
32
The EMERGENCY SCHOOL AID ACT PROGRAM is designed to
provide the young people and adults of Chatham County a variety of
opportunities for both cultural enrichment and improved human
relations and communications on an interracial basis. The cultural
enrichment program provides music and art instructors and ethnic
culture presentations in an effort to encourage self-confidence and
pride and community spirit. The Human Relations and com-
munications aspect of the program services parents, teachers, ad-
ministrators, community leaders and students in the implementation
of methods necessary for enhancing ethnic group understanding.
The VETERANS OUTREACH CENTER is a clearinghouse, com-
munication resource center and information and referral center for
veterans. The center is operated by the college for the City of Savan-
nah and is dedicated to assisting veterans in resolving their problems
and realizing their potential.
Classes in COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT and COM-
MUNICATIONS are designed as a part of the College's effort to
become more involved in community affairs. The program focuses on
strengthening the abilities of community leaders to render more ef-
fective service.

CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
PURPOSE
Correspondence study is designed to help students and adults to (1)
complete part of their educational goal outside of academic residence
(2) work and study on a limited basis (3) secure special scheduling
other- wise unobtainable: and (4) develop independent study skills and
creativity.
ELIGIBILITY
Generally, the requirements of registering for any credit course
presuppose that the prospective enrollee is a graduate of an accredited
high school or of a high school approved by Savannah State College.
Students who are residents of Savannah State College are required to
secure the permission from the Dean of the College prior to
registration for credit.
SERVICE PERSONNEL
Men and women on active duty with the armed forces may enroll in
most correspondence courses through the United States Armed Forces
Institute (USAFI). Interested service personnel should consult their
unit's Education Officer or write to United States Armed Forces In-
stitute, Madison, Wisconsin 53703.

quarter hours or three and one-third semester hours of undergraduate
credit. Full compliance with registration procedures and satisfactory
completion of courses(s) are necessary for credit. Students who work on
a full time basis should carry a limited load. The maximum load of a
full time student should correspond to that of students who are
studying in residence. Credits earned may be used for partial com-
pletion of degree, certification, renewal of certificate and for
educational and professional developement. All credits are recorded
and retained in the Office of the Registrar. Transcripts will be sent to
designated offices at the request of students.

SPECIAL STUDIES PROGRAM
The Special Studies Program (originally called the Developmental
Education Program) was initiated at Savannah State College in 1969,
for the express purpose of providing basic and/or corrective instruction
in English, reading, and mathematics for students demonstrating
deficiencies in those areas. Although the Program was accorded
departmental status in 1973, and its responsibilities expanded, its
mission remains essentially the same, that is, assisting students to
overcome those academic and motivational disadvantages that often
impede their progress toward the achievement of academic goals.
THE LIBRARY
A modern library with a well-prepared staff serves the college and
community. It houses over 90,000 cataloged volumes, approximately
960 periodicals, over 122,000 microforms, and 11,709 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 Black Americans.
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 in-
dividual earphones and recordings of the best music. The library is the
cultural and intellectual center of the College and community.

students who have great financial NEED and who must EARN a part
of their educational expenses. You may apply if you are enrolled at

STUDENT LIFE
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
Students and head residents. Through dormitory clubs, the women
students help to plan dormitory activities and participate in
developing standards of conduct and determining social regulations for
the groups.
50
Dormitory life for men is supervised by the Dean of Students 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 dormitories.
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
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.
The annual Religious Emphasis Week provides opportunities for
religious growth and development under the supervision of the
Religious Life Committee.
POLICY ON USE OF DRUGS
The possession or use (without valid medical or dental prescription),
manufacture, furnishing, or sale of any narcotic or dangerous drug con-
trolled 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 personnel
program.
51
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.
The purpose of the student personnel program is the establishment
of these optimum conditions for each student. It should be noted, how-
ever, 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 entering 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, and the Com-
52
prehensive Counseling Program. 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. Advisors 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 promp-
tly.
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 schools' physician and the schools' 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 information 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
53
participate in a wide range of significant activities. Through the efforts
of organized groups, programs are planned for the social, religious, 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 spon-
sors 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.
54
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
CLASS ATTENDANCE
In classroom exercises and in laboratory and other class related ac-
tivities, Savannah State College endeavors to provide optimum con-
ditions for student learning. Class attendance is therefore required of
all students in order to ensure that they will have at least been exposed
to the many opportunities that are provided for their benefit. It is
recognized, however, that extenuating circumstances may at times
make it difficult for students to meet this requirement. The following
exceptions are provided to take care of such contingencies. Any student
is allowed unexcused absences equal to two times the number of credit
hours that a particular course carries. In addition, excused absences
may be granted by the head of the department in which the student is
majoring in circumstances involving personal illness or injury, or the
illness or death of a close relative. Students who exceed the allowable
number of unexcused absences may be dropped by an Instructor
provided the student has been given a written warning at the time that
his/her absences equal two-thirds (%) of the maximum limitation.
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:
Quality Point Value
4 per credit hour
3 per credit hour
2 per credit hour
1 per credit hour
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"F" indicates that the student has failed to meet the
minimum requirements of the course.
REPORTING OF GRADES
At Mid-quarter, and at the end of each quarter each faculty member
submits to the Office of the Registrar the Grade Reports for each of his
55
r ade
Meaning
A
Excellent
B
Good
C
Average
D
Poor
F
Failure
classes. These Reports are prepared in multiple copies, with copies for
the Registrar, the Dean of the College, the Department Head, the In-
structor, and a copy for posting in a conspicious place for purposes of
student information. In addition, each student receives a Grade Report
at the end of each quarter containing the grades and credit hours earn-
ed in each course in which he was enrolled, his grade-point average for
the quarter, and his cumulative grade-point average.
Mid-quarter Grade Reports contain grades for those students who
are doing unsatisfactory work, i.e., whose averages are below C.
CHANGES IN GRADES
Once a grade has been reported to the Registrar it can be changed
only under the following conditions:
1. Upon presentation to the Dean of the College conclusive documen-
tary evidence that the grade was reported in error; or
2. By following the procedure described below for removal of an I
(incomplete) grade.
REMOVAL OF INCOMPLETE (I) GRADES
The grade I (Incomplete) indicates that a student has completed
satisfactorily all except a small portion of the required work of a
course, and that he/she continued in class until ten or fewer days
remained in the Quarter. The student may remove the I by completing
the remaining requirements within one year of the time that he next
enrolls in school.
WITHDRAWAL (W)
The grade W is given by the instructor when a student who was of-
ficially enrolled in a course withdraws from the course by the end of
the sixth week of classes. The student must have withdrawn formally
by filing the appropriate forms with the Registrar, who in turn will
notify the instructor, listing the date on which the withdrawal oc-
curred. The instructor shall report a grade of F for those officially
enrolled students who stop attending class but who fail to complete an
official withdrawal.
The grade WP (withdrew while passing) shall be reported for a
student who withdraws from the College while doing satisfactory work
in a course. The grade WF (withdrew while failing) shall be reported if
the student's work at the time of withdrawal is unsatisfactory.
56
A student will be given a grade of F if he/she is doing unsatisfactory
work in a course and does not take the final examination. If such a
student is doing satisfactory work the instructor shall report a grade of
I.
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 ef-
fort 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 approve the
request for withdrawal and forward the appropriate forms to the of-
fices of the Dean of the College, the Registrar, and the Comptroller.
Students not able to follow this procedure should write or have
someone write to the Dean of Students, requesting permission to with-
draw. Students who withdraw without giving formal notice will forfeit
claims for any refunds.
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 guar-
dians), and to department heads.
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 at-
tempted 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
57
STUDENT LOAD
Under ordinary circumstances a student in good standing may enroll
in courses up to but not in excess of eighteen (18) quarter hours. Ex-
ceptions may be made for students who are within two Quarters of
graduation, provided that total hours carried for credit do not exceed
twenty-one (21). Credit for an overload will not be granted, however,
unless it has been recommended by the student's adviser and approved
by the Dean of the College.
SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS
Savannah State College is operated for students who demonstrate
seriousness of purpose and ability and disposition to profit by college
work. Students who fail to fulfill the scholarship requirements of the
institution are subject to scholastic discipline. At the end of each quar-
ter 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 the
College prior to notification of students and their parents or guardians
of the academic probation, suspension, or dismissal of students. In ad-
dition, he shall notify other appropriate personnel of this action.
1. Any student who earns a D or F in Humanities 107, 108, or 109, or
in any course required in his/her major, minor, or professional
education sequence must repeat the course during the next quarter
that it is offered.
2. 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).
3. Freshmen who achieve a minimum cumulative grade-point
average of 1.00 but not more than 1.50 will be placed on academic
probation.
4. 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.
5. 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
58
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.
6. A student on probation whose cumulative average decreases will
not be permitted to register for the succeeding quarter.
7. 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 maintains 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 main-
tains this grade point average each successive quarter enrolled.
RECOGNITION OF EXCELLENCE IN SCHOLARSHIP
Persons who have not been subject to disciplinary action while earn-
ing 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 normal
load during a given quarter are eligible for listing on the Honor Roll.
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

Graduation with honors is based upon completion of a minimum at-
tendance period of six quarters and completion of at least ninety quar-
ter hours at Savannah State College. In addition, students who

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, cocurricular
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 certificate of
proficiency in various phases of office administration.
Degree Programs
A student in business administration may pursue a major in one of
six general areas: (1) Accounting. (2) general business administration,
(3) Economics, (4) office administration, and in cooperation with Arm-
strong State College; (5) finance or (6) management-marketing. Per-
sons desiring to become certified as teachers of business subjects on the
secondary level will enroll in business education
* On Leave
63
major area of teaching specialization in the Division of Business Ad-
ministration; and will complete professional education courses in the
Division of Education as a minor, inasmuch as he must also meet
requirements set by the Division or State Department of Teacher
Education and Certification.
COOPERATIVE PROGRAMS. Through cooperative interchange
with Armstrong State College, it is possible for a business major to
complete requirements for specializations in marketing and finance,
and a wider variety of restricted electives in accounting, general
business administration, finance, and economics is available. A
student is permitted to take courses at Armstrong on a fee-free basis as
long as the total number of hours does not exceed the maximum load
per quarter.
TYPEWRITING PROFICIENCY. While proficiency in typewriting
is required for all majors, registration in a formal course in typewriting
is not required of any major specialization area except 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 awar-
ded 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
entrance 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
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 coun-
seling 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.
64
At the beginning of the Senior year, when the student acquires 135
quarter hours, he files an application for the degree with the Registrar,
duly approved by the Division Chairman, and includes a listing of
courses completed, grades and quality points earned, a record of all
other college requirements, and the date of expected graduation.
COOPERATIVES AND INTERNSHIPS. The Division encourages
students to obtain work experience in the areas of vocational choices
during the formal four-year program. Several opportunities are
available through the Division: (1) In cooperation with the "Big
Eight" Accounting Firms, the Winter Quarter Full-Time Internship
experience is available to majors in accounting in the Junior and/or
Senior Years; (2) The U. S. Department of Navy Cooperative Program
for Civilian work assignments is available to all majors with the com-
pletion of the Freshman Year (a minimum of 36 weeks is required on
the job, but may be broken into two to four periods, with the student
returning to school every other quarter or every six months); (3) Sum-
mer Internships with AEC, BLS, Internal Revenue Service, and other
Government Agencies are available through application and interview;
(4) Internships in Accounting are available with Union Bag; and (5)
the College Work-Study Program provides opportunities with non-
profit agencies in the city and on campus.

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 of 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 Secondary
Education. The preparation of teachers is, however, a Collegewide
commitment. Because every division and department at the College is
involved in teacher education in some subject matter field, this func-
tion engages the constant interest and efforts, staff resources, and
facilities of the entire institution.

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 activity needed for
wholesome living.
In pursuance of the foregoing aims this department provides a four-
fold 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 of-
fers 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 essen-
tial 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 REQUIREMENTS FOR
ALL FRESHMEN & SOPHOMORES
During the freshman and sophomore years all students are required
to participate in health and physical education activities. The satisfac-
89
tory completion of this work is a prerequisite for graduation. Within

DIVISION OF HUMANITIES
LUETTA C. MILLEDGE, Chairperson
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 im-
pact 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 understanding of
the human spirit.
This division comprises the Department of English, the Department
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 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 intellectual 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 approaches 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 com-
position and a knowledge of modern trends in teaching literature and
language.
PLAN OF STUDY
All freshman students are required to take a placement test in
English and are grouped on the basis of achievement on the test. A
student whose score is sufficiently high on the objective test is eligible
to take a writing proficiency test. If his writing is adjudged proficient
by three readers, he is then eligible to register for Humanities 108.
Other students are assigned to appropriate sections of Humanities 107
or are assigned to English courses in Special Studies.
THE ENGLISH MAJOR
A non-teaching major in English must include two period courses
(301, 303, 305, or 306); one course in American literature (220 or 221);
one genre course (403, 405, or 406): one course in world literature (331
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 complete
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
96
literature, one course in Linguistics, one genre course, one course in
world literature for majors, and two seminars in English, and two elec-
tives in English, in addition to freshman English, advanced com-
position, and speech.
THE ENGLISH MINOR
A minor in English consists of thirty hours beyond Humanities 107,
108, and 109. It must include one course in American literature, one
course in English literature, one genre course, and one seminar in

Arthur L. Britt James Thompson, Jr.
The Department of Fine Arts encourages students to find in the
several areas of music and the graphic and plastic arts an appreciation
of aesthetic values in general education and opportunities for the
development of their special interests and abilities in these fields. In
conformance with the stated philosophy of the college, the department
stresses specific objectives in the areas of music and art.
GRAPHIC AND PLASTIC ARTS
The courses in graphic and plastic arts are intended to:
(1) Provide students with the skills and experiences necessary for
teaching art in elementary and secondary schools;
(2) Prepare students for pure, creative production;
(3) Provide basic preparation for further study in the various
professional fields of art;
(4) Provide electives for the total growth of students; and
(5) Enrich the community through art activities such as exhibitions,
motion pictures, lectures, and art clubs.
ART EDUCATION
To implement the foregoing objectives, the Department of Fine Arts
offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in
Education, with a concentration in art education. A graduate who has
completed the art education program may be recommended to the
Division of Teacher Certification for certification as a teacher of art in
grades one through twelve.
THE MUSIC PROGRAM
The courses in music lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science in
Education, with a concentration in music education. The Bachelor of
Music Education degree is given at Armstrong State College in
cooperation with Savannah State College. The course descriptions in-
dicate which Armstrong State College courses may be substituted for
equivalent courses at Savannah State College.
109
The curriculum prepares students for certification by the State
Department of Education as teachers of music in grades one through
twelve; and it provides training in individual and group participation.
Adequate preparation for choral conductors and band directors is
stressed. Functional piano facility is encouraged for all majors.
It is expected that in all phases of the music program students will
be aware of their tremendous responsibility to enrich the lives of
people in their communities by their talents, skills, and musical
initiative. The creative impulse is strongly encouraged. Emphasis is
continuously placed upon musical activities which develop the entire
personality by making use of all physical and mental resources
necessary to performance, whether it be in the instrumental or vocal
areas, and in exercising intelligent judgment in the area of musical
creativity.
ADMISSION TO THE MAJOR PROGRAM IN MUSIC
It is desirable that all applicants for admission to the major
program in music will have had at least two years of previous musical
training in the vocal and/or instrumental areas. The Department will
determine by aptitude tests and individual auditions the applicant's
theoretical knowledge, instrumental and vocal proficiency, and general
professional fitness for the program. This information will serve as a
guide to the Department in helping the applicant to plan his college
work.

Department of Modern Languages
CHRISTOPHER D. KOCH, Acting Head
Joseph C. Anderson Deborah Mcintosh
Althea V. Morton Eusebio M. Valle**
The aims of the Department of Modern Languages are (1) to develop
the ability to communicate in a foreign language; (2) to instill respect
for other peoples and other cultures; (3) to develop an appreciation for
the artistic expressions which are found in other languages; and (4) to
bring about a greater awareness of our own cultural heritage. Un-
derlying these aims is the ultimate goal of preparation for a more ef-
fective 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, 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.
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 con-
tinues the study of the same language, it is recommended that he take
an examination administered by the Department for placement pur-
poses. When a student begins the study of a foreign language at the in-
termediate level, two courses are sufficient to meet the language
requirement for graduation.

Department of Biology
MARGARET CHISHOLM ROBINSON, Head
J. B. Benson G. K. Nambiar
C. O. Emeh M. J. Stone
F. R. Hunter B. L. Woodhouse
P. V. Krishnamurti
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 provide preprofessional training for
persons interested in pursuing health careers such as medicine,
veterinary medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, and paramedical careers
such as medical technology, nursing, physical therapy, medical
illustration, medical social worker, and medical secretaries; (3) to
provide preprofessional study through the media of advanced courses
for persons interested in careers requiring graduate work such as in-
dustrial and biological research, public health, college-level teaching,
medical school teaching, secondary school teaching, and specialists in
the biological sciences.
128
To realize these aims, the Department of Biology offers courses
leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Science with a major in Biology as
well as a minor.
In addition, the Department of Biology offers courses for satisfying
requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Education with a con-
centration in Biology.
PLAN OF STUDY
Biology 123-124 is designed for non-science majors as a part of the
general curriculum. The Biology Major: Biology 128, 200, 201, 202 and
203 comprises the basic Modern Biology Core requirements for all
students majoring in Biology, and who desire training preparatory to
either medical and paramedical careers or graduate study. Subsequent
to the sequential completion of the Biology Core, students are
required, in counsel with academic advisors, to select an option of
biology electives according to their interest and desired area of con-
centration. The Biology Electives Option becomes a part of the
student's formal records as requirements for graduation filed in the
Department of Biology and in the Registrar's Office.
Students interested in paramedical (Health) careers satisfy the two-
year basic Modern Biology Core sequence and science cognates ac-
cording to specific requirements of selected specialized training
schools. Students are required to plan health careers curriculums with
an assigned advisor.
For the major at least thirty-five quarter hours on the junior and
senior levels are required. For the minor, at least twenty-five quarter
hours on the junior and senior levels are required.

The aims of the Department of Mathematics and Physics are: (1) to
offer all students an opportunity for acquiring those basic skills which
are needed for successful living, together with an appreciation of the
contributions of these sciences to the cultural heritage; (2) to equip
students in business administration and the natural and technical
sciences with the means of developing logical thought procedures and
insight into physical laws-all of which constitute essential tools in the
several fields; (3) to provide training through advanced courses for
students preparing to undertake the study of science, engineering, and
those planning to enter graduate school; and (4) to assure adequate
preparation in both content and instructional skills for prospective
teachers in the secondary school.
The Department offers a major in Mathematics for students who are
interested in work with industry or government service. In addition,
majors for students interested in teaching are offered in Mathematics
Education, Earth Science Education and Physics Education. The
Department also offers minors in Mathematics, in Computer Science,

PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION
The objective of the naval professional academic courses and
professional training portion of the NROTC academic program is to
teach basic professional subject matter and to instill in each student
those qualities essential to performance as junior naval officers. These
qualities include the ability to exercise self-discipline, to organize time
and effort effectively, to perform efficiently under stress, to think and
react quickly with good judgement, and to consistently exhibit exem-
plary military bearing and appearance. Seniors are placed in position
of command and find themselves calling upon all the leadership skills
they have developed during their first three years of NROTC
professional training. Thus, following this final year of practical ex-
perience, they find themselves well prepared to assume leadership
responsibilities in the Navy or marine Corps as commissioned officers.

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 essential to all per-
sons 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 six
curricula. Curriculum One leads to the B.A. Degree in history.
Curriculum Two leads to the B.A. Degree with a concentration in
sociology; Curriculum Three leads to the B.S. Degree in Criminal
Justice. Curriculum Four leads to the B.S. Degree in Political Science.
Curriculum Five leads to the B.A. Degree in Social Work.
The program for persons who plan to teach social studies in the
secondary school is Curriculum Six.
The curricula of this division are designed for: those who wish to
qualify for a certificate to teach in the secondary school; persons in-
terested in careers in law, diplomatic service, and research should
choose curriculum I; persons interested in 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 en-
forcement, and/or security should choose curriculum III; persons in-
terested in government service, federal, state, or local should choose
curriculum IV; and persons interested in careers as social workers
should choose curriculum V.
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 the College before becoming effective.

DIVISION OF TECHNICAL
SCIENCES
CLYDE W. HALL, Chairman
ORGANIZATION AND DEGREE PROGRAMS
The Division of Technical Sciences comprises instructional programs
in engineering technology, home economics, and industrial teacher
education. Instructional activities are organized within the Depart-
ment of Engineering Technology and the Department of Home
Economics. The former offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor
of Science, with majors in Civil Engineering Technology, Electronics
Engineering Technology, and Mechanical Engineering Technology;
and to the degree of Associate of Science, with majors in Civil
Technology, Drafting and Design Technology, Electronics Technology,
and Mechanical Technology. The three above engineering technology
curricula are accredited by the Engineers' Council for Professional
Development. The Department of Home Economics offers courses
leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science with majors in Dietetics
and Institution Management and Textiles and Clothing, and to a cer-
tificate in Dressmaking and Tailoring.
BASIC PREPARATION FOR TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Offerings of this Division are, in the main, designed to prepare
graduates for immediate employment as professional and semi-
professional workers in technical home economics and engineering
technology. Intensive training for careers in these areas presupposes a
good foundation in the applied sciences. Accordingly, thorough high
school preparation in physics, algebra, plane geometry, trigonometry,
and industrial shop is essential for all who plan to study engineering
technology. A knowledge of chemistry and a background in home
economics are essential for those who go into technical home
economics.
INDUSTRIAL TEACHER EDUCATION AND
TRADE AND INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION
This Division offers the required shop work and special subject
preparation for students who plan to teach industrial arts and trade
and industrial subjects. The industrial arts education program does
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 ap-
192
propriate 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
vocational-technical school and/or worked in industry in the oc-
cupation he is preparing to teach.
COOPERATIVE PROGRAM
The Division of Technical Sciences offers a cooperative program in
trade and industrial education and engineering technology which
enables students to gain practical work experience in industry as paid
workers during their college years. This program is open to beginning
sophomore students (46 quarter hours) with satisfactory academic
records at the college and the specific qualifications of cooperating em-
ployers. The college does not guarantee the availability of work
stations, kinds of work, or amount of compensation received under this
program, but attempts to locate desirable employers and place
students to their best educational and financial advantages.
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 employment
period. Students must observe all applicable regulations of the em-
ploying company and must consider themselves employees of the com-
pany while on-the-job.
Students pursuing this program will take five or more years to com-
plete their requirements for the Bachelor's degree, and at the con-
clusion of the program they are not obligated to accept employment
with cooperating companies and neither are the companies obligated
to offer them employment.
DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM
Savannah State College has entered into an agreement with Georgia
Institute of Technology to offer a Dual Degree Program whereby un-
193
dergraduate students can attend this institution for approximately
three academic years and the latter institution for approximately two
academic years and receive baccalaureate degrees from both in-
stitutions. This program is open to majors in chemistry, mathematics,
civil engineering technology, electronics engineering technology and
mechanical engineering technology, and is coordinated by the Chair-
man of the Division of Technical Sciences.
Bachelor degrees are offered at Georgia Institute of Technology as a
part of this program in aerospace engineering, ceramic engineering,
chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering,
engineering economic systems, engineering science, industrial
engineering, mechanical engineering, nuclear engineering, science in
textile chemistry, science in textiles, and textile engineering.
In order for a student to become a dual degree candidate at Georgia
Institute of Technology, he must have:
1. A college grade point average and specific test results which would
indicate that he could satisfactorily complete the degree requirements
at Georgia Institute of Technology.
2. A recommendation from the Chairman of the Division of
Technical Sciences.

The ultimate objective of the engineering technology program is to
provide the student with an educational experience that will allow him
to succeed as an engineering technologist. This involves keeping the
student interested and providing opportunity for him to become
skillful in his assimilation of information and techniques. When the
student leaves he is aware of, and has fixed firmly in his mind, the
potential of which he is capable.
Engineering technology embraces the physical sciences,
mathematics, and the practices and materials of modern industry
which are utilized in the design and construction of the machines,
structures, highways, power sources, communication systems, and
products 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 tests to provide data for rational solutions and
designs. These tests are followed by interpretations of data and
preparation of appropriate plans for use by skilled craftsmen who
produce the devices and/or products.

PHILOSOPHY AND PURPOSE
The philosphy of the home economics profession is to help stabilize
family life as the core of society and to constantly reassess 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.

SPECIAL STUDIES PROGRAM
Norman Benedict Elmore, Chairman
Janie V. Bruen Willie George McLemore
Joan S. D. Green Emogene S. Middleton
Mildred H. Hall George 0. Thomas, Sr.
The basic aim of the Special Studies Program is to provide basic,
developmental and corrective instruction for freshman-level students
who demonstrate marked deficiencies in English, reading, and
mathematics. The Special Studies Program (formerly the Develop-
mental Education Program and/or Demonstration Development) was
initiated at Savannah State College by the Regents of the University
System of Georgia, in 1969. The administration gave the Department
full academic status and autonomy at the beginning of the 1973-1974
fiscal year.
Entering freshmen who earn a combined score of less than 650 on
the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) must sit for the Comparative
Guidance and Placement Test (CGP) which is used by the University
System of Georgia to determine satisfactory levels of performance.
Results of the tests (in English, mathematics, and reading) may in-
dicate that such students should be admitted to the Special Studies
Program but with a variety of placements:
1. If there are academic deficiencies in English communicative
skills, reading comprehension, and mathematics, only Special Studies,
physical activity, and freshman seminar courses will be taken.
2. If there are academic deficiencies in English communicative
skills and reading comprehension but an indication of likely success in
mathematics, students will register for Special Studies courses in
English communicative skills and reading comprehension and for
courses which carry regular college credit in academic areas.
3. If there are academic deficiencies in mathematics but an in-
dication of likely success in English communicative skills and reading
comprehension, the students will register for a Special Studies course
in mathematics and for courses which carry regular college credit in
academic areas.
4. Students who sit for the Comparative Guidance and Placement
Program (CGP) and whose test results indicate a lack of serious
deficiencies in the areas considered qualify for admission into the
regular Freshman College program. Such students are accorded full
freshman status.
Cut-off scores for the Comparative Guidance and Placement
Program (CGP) set by the Regents of the University System of
Georgia determine whether or not students are placed in the Special
232
Studies Program or are accorded full freshman status.
Students may transfer from a Special Studies course into a regular
course during or at the end of the first, second, or third quarter if ac-
ceptable levels of performance have been articulated.
Upon satisfactory termination of all required Special Studies cour-
ses, students are admitted to the regular Freshman College program.
It is a foregone conclusion that some students will take one, two, and
even three quarters of courses in Special Studies. Students enrolled in
Special Studies courses will have one academic year in which to
demonstrate proficiency in courses or areas in which they were deemed
deficient when they initially began matriculation at Savannah State
College. Students who do not demonstrate the desired proficiency in
English communicative skills, reading comprehension, and
mathematics through learning situations provided by the Department
of Special Studies may not be allowed to continue matriculation at
Savannah State College, after one academic year will have passed.
Students who are accorded Special Studies status will not be labeled
as a separate group, and in all other considerations they will be
regarded as regular students in the Freshman College.
Courses offered by the Department of Special Studies include the
following:
Special Studies 102: Basic Mathematics I
Special Studies 103: Basic Mathematics II
Special Studies 104: Basic Reading I
Special Studies 105: Basic Reading II
Special Studies 106: Basic English I
Special Studies 110: Topics in the Humanities
Special Studies 111: Topics in Reading
Special Studies 115: Topics in the Social Sciences (Reading)
Special Studies 116: Basic English II (Integrated Approach)
Special Studies 122: Topics in the Natural Sciences (Reading)
Savannah State College will award institutional credit only for
Special Studies courses.
Special Studies courses will carry quarter hours credit and grades of
A, B, C, and IP will be given. Students receiving an IP grade must
repeat the course or courses in which such a grade was given during the
next quarter they are in residence at Savannah State College.
At Savannah State College, quarter hours earned in Special Studies
courses will not be counted as college credit and grades earned in such
courses will not be used in determining cumulative grade point
averages.
The grades students earn in Special Studies courses will be deter-
mined by an evaluation of course work and performance on the Com-
parative Guidance and Placement Program (CGP). Scoring at or above
the Regents' cut-off score on the Comparative Guidance and
233
Placement Program (CGP) is prerequisite to students' receiving a
minimum passing grade of C in Special Studies courses.
Special Studies students at Savannah State College may carry a
maximum of five courses (17 quarter hours) per quarter, three five-
hour Special Studies courses and, in addition, one physical activity
course and the freshman seminar or three five-hour Special Studies
courses and physical activity courses totaling two quarter hours.
Personnel attached to the Special Studies Program also teach Social
Science 114 The Psychology of Social Relationships, a one-credit
hour course required of all freshman and transfer students. The course
is a component of the Freshman Studies Program.
