GENERAL INFORMATION:
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
subject to the general Board of Trustees of the University of Geor-
gia. 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
instructors 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 Sa-
vannah and partly 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 Eng-
lish, 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 gov-
erning 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 aca-
demic program was reorganized. The high school and normal de-
partments were discontinued and the school became a four-year col-
lege. 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 eco-
nomics.
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, An-
nual Men's Day, Religious Emphasis Week, Freshman Week, and
the Cultural Artists Series. Expanded programs of student person-
nel services and public relations, a reading clinic, and an audio-
visual aids laboratory were instituted under the leadership of Presi-
dent Colston.
Dean W. K. Payne became acting president of the College on
September 1, 1949. The Regents of the University System of Geor-
gia 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.
At the beginning of Dr. Payne's administration, Savannah State
College was granted membership in the American Council on Edu-
cation! 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.
Mr. Timothy C. Myers served as acting president from the time of
Dr. Payne's death until November 1, 1963. Mr. Myers had served as
dean of the faculty since September, 1953.
Under the inspired leadership of Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr. (Nov-
ember 1, 1963 through January 31, 1971), significant, far-reaching
and innovative programs were initiated in all aspects of the Col-
lege's development. Curricula improvements in the general educa-
tion 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 Col-
lege passed from Dr. Jordan to Dr. Prince A. Jackson, Jr., on Feb-
ruary 1, 1971.
Many of the improvements and innovations begun during Presi-
dent 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 reaccred-
itation 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). The three engineering technology programs-
civil, electronics, and mechanical were accredited by the Engi-
neers' Council for Professional Development in 1973. President
Jackson, the first alumnus of the College to become its President,
provided 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 persons for a richer and more rewarding life. Dr.
Jackson served until March 27, 1978, when he was succeeded by Dr.
Clyde W. Hall, who at the time of his appointment was serving as
Chairman of the Division of Technical Sciences.
Buildings and Grounds
The campus, comprising 136 acres, presents a unique setting of
natural beauty. Among its 43 buildings are three that were con-
structed 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. Mel-
drim Hall now houses most of the administrative offices; Hill Hall is
occupied by most of the Federal Programs and Extended Services;
and Hammond Hall is the present site of the Department of Home
Economics.
W. K. Payne Hall, a two-story, air-conditioned building is a main
classroom building. In addition to its fifteen classrooms, it also pro-
vides office space for thirty-two instructors (including four depart-
mental offices), data processing facilities, a secretarial center, a
language laboratory, a reading clinic and the Learning Resource
Center. Most of the classes in the English, Social Sciences, Modern
Languages, and Special Studies Departments are held in this facility.
Other classroom buildings, and the Departments that each house
are Herty Hall (1937) Mathematics and Physics; Hubert Technical
Sciences Center (I960) Engineering Technology, Industrial Arts
and Chemistry; Morgan Hall (1936) and Morgan Hall Annex Busi-
8
ness Administration; J. F. Kennedy Fine Arts Center (1967) Fine
Arts; the Griffith-Drew Center for the Natural Sciences (1971)
Biology; and Wiley-Willcox Gymnasium Complex Physical Edu-
cation.
Completing the physical facilities of the campus are those build-
ings used for activities that are auxiliary to the instructional pro-
cess, those used as student residence halls, and those used to house
the maintenance and operational staffs. 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-Varnetta Frazier Student
Center Complex (1969) houses the Student Personnel Offices, the
College Dining Hall, the Post Office, and most of the offices directly
involved in student life and student activities. Adams Hall (1931),
formerly used as the dining hall, 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 Pro-
gram. Powell Hall also houses the student-created Ethnic Culture
Center.
Three new buildings were completed in 1976. A new library,
destined to be the first circular-shaped library in the state, was
occupied that year and serves as the hub for the other buildings
located on the southern portion of the campus. Adjacent to the new
library is the Helen Adele Whiting Educational Center. This building
will be shared by the Division of Education and the Division of
Business Administration. The third new building is the NROTC
Armory located adjacent to the stadium. A portion of this building
serves as an athletic field house.
Residence halls include two recently completed ones: Smith-Bowen
for women (1971) and Melvin Bostic Men's Residence Hall (1972).
Both dormitories are air-conditioned, as are A. E. Peacock Hall
(1967) and Lockette Hall (1965). Peacock Hall accommodates 180
men, and Lockette Hall, 180 women. Lester Hall (1965), a dormitory
for young women, completes the list of residence halls now used for
housing accommodations. Camilla Hubert Hall (1938) is scheduled
to be converted to married student housing. Wright Hall (1951), a
former dormitory, is being utilized to provide additional academic
and administrative office space. The studio for FM radio station
WHCJ is also in Wright Hall.
Most of the plant operations are directed from the Medgar Evers
Plant Operations Complex, a modern facility that houses the main
offices for Plant Operations and the College Warehouse. Housekeep-
ing services are now housed in the former field house.
PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES
OF THE COLLEGE
Savannah State College, a unit of the University System of Geor-
gia, is a college of Arts and Sciences, Teacher Education, Business
Administration, and Engineering Technology.
The College is strongly committed to the general philosophy of
formal education which aims at the development of intellectual, vo-
cational, 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 ac-
cepts 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 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
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 continu-
ing effort to become more democratic at home and more just in its
relations with other members of the world community. It also pro-
vides 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 en-
courage subsidized institutes in order to upgrade in-service teach-
ing. The College is also aware of the need to motivate faculty-stu-
dent participation and involvement in community development
programs.
Consistent with the above philosophy and purpose, the institution
has several major objectives as it strives to cultivate the student's
intellectual, artistic, cultural, and physical abilities and to develop
his 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.
10
2. To acquire specialized training in one of the many available
areas, and to develop individual talents and intellectual curi-
osity 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 physi-
cal 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, Educa-
tion, Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Technical Sci-
ences, 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 educa-
tional decisions with advice of the faculty, through their partici-
pation in the government of the College and a program of extra-
curricular activities.
C. Draws upon available intellectual, cultural, and technical re-
sources to enrich the lives of the students.
The total resources of the College are dedicated to the task of pro-
moting the student's mental, physical, and emotional maturity.
COLLEGE PROGRAMS
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
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 de-
velop and operate a more comprehensive joint program of graduate
studies. Faculty and other resources of the two schools are utilized
11
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 Edu-
cation degrees, the Master of Education degree in Elementary Edu-
cation, in Special Education (Behavior Disorders), and in the sec-
ondary education disciplines of Biology, Chemistry, English, Math-
ematics, 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

GEORGIA INTERN PROGRAM
Students who are enrolled full-time at Savannah State College are
eligible to participate in the Georgia Legislative Internship Pro-
gram. Students selected to participate in the Program are assigned
to a legislative office or to legislative committees in either the House
or Senate, and work directly under and are responsible to the office
head or committee chairman. This first hand experience of observ-
ing and participating in the legislative process is considered as part
of the student's academic program and the student may receive
academic credit for such participation. The program at Savannah
State College is under the general direction of the Chairman of the
Division of Social Sciences.
EXTENDED SERVICES
Savannah State College, through its Extended Services Program,
offers a variety of services to the urban and inner-city communities.
'These are programs that enable students to complete the certification requirements of the Geor-
gia Department of Education, even though a formal major is not offered.
2 Offered in cooperation with the Savannah Area Vocational-Technical School. Students may
begin the two-year program at either school.
13
Extended Services consists of a variety of programs designed to
supplement the regular academic program's efforts to meet the
growing needs of these constituents.
The DIVISION OF STUDENT SUPPORT AND SPECIAL PRO-
GRAMS, one of the largest Extended Services Programs, embraces
three separate components: : TALENT SEARCH, SPECIAL SER-
VICES, and UPWARD BOUND.
The TALENT SEARCH component is designed to find young
persons with exceptional potential and assist in guiding them to-
ward realistic goals. The program focuses on uncovering and de-
veloping aptitudes and developing employment potential.
SPECIAL SERVICES offers supportive services to currently en-
rolled students who need counseling and tutorial assistance. This
component seeks to develop student basic skills in reading, mathe-
matics 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 prepare themselves to pursue such work successfully. The Up-
ward Bound Project apprises them of educational opportunities in
the form of scholarships and other aids which are open to them.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT
A program to aquaint new personnel and increase the knowledge
and skills of experienced operators in Water/Wastewater Treatment
Plants. This training will enhance compliance with local, state and
federal standards as well as equip the trainee for gainful and stable
employment in the Water/Wastewater Treatment occupation.
EMERGENCY SCHOOL AID ACT PROGRAM
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-con-
fidence and pride and community spirit. The human relations and
communications aspect of the program services parents, teachers,
administrators, community leaders and students in the implementa-
tion of methods necessary for enhancing ethnic group understand-
ing.
14
COMMUNITY PREPAREDNESS CENTER
The Community Preparedness Center's responsibilities are two-
fold. First, the Center provides educational workshops to schools,
church groups, and social service groups. These workshops are geared
to meet the needs of a particular group including such areas as: Pre-
Employment Guidance, Legal problems of a general nature, Real
Estate, Vocational Rehabilitation Services, Human Resource Ser-
vices, and Consumer Education.
Secondly, the Center attempts to identify members of the com-
munity who show interest in attending college and who possess a
strong potential for success but who may be lacking in motivation or
current information. This College-Prep area of the Center provides
testing, remedial assistance, and general guidance.
CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
In addition to instruction on the campus, Savannah State College
is authorized to offer college correspondence courses. Such courses
have become recognized sources of public education, reflecting a
sense of obligation to those who cannot undertake resident instruc-
tion and to those who do not require resident instruction for per-
sonal growth and enrichment.
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 regu-
lar 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
15
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 from the Dean of the
College and present this statement to the Correspondence Study
Office.
Information concerning courses, credit, fees, examinations, text-
books, etc., may be obtained from:

THE LIBRARY
A modern library with a well-prepared staff serves the college
and community. It houses over 102,000 cataloged volumes, approxi-
mately 906 periodicals, over 175,000 microforms, and 14,000 bound
periodicals. Approximately 8,000 volumes are added yearly to keep
the collection up to date. There is an extensive collection of mate-
rials by and about Black Americans.
The present library, which provides excellent facilities, was oc-
cupied in January of 1977. There are many conference and indi-
vidual study areas, an a-v department, a curriculum materials cen-
ter, open stacks, a smoking lounge, a classroom, and typing facilities.
The library can house 290,000 volumes. It is easily distinguishable
from the other buildings on campus because of its shape. The li-
brary is the cultural and intellectual center of the College.

returned for our records before another can be issued.
There is an International Student Club and an International Stu-
dent Advisor to assist international students in adjusting to campus
life. All international students should confer with the international
students' advisor (Dr. K. B. Raut, Room 231, Griffith-Drew Hall)
upon arrival on campus.

CONDITIONAL ADMISSION
Applicants for admission whose scores on the combined verbal
and mathematics sections of the Scholastic Aptitude Test are less
than 750 will be granted Conditional Admission until they have
taken the Basic Skills Examination (BSE) in English, Reading, and
Mathematics, and have achieved satisfactory scores on each test.
Those students whose scores on the BSE are satisfactory will be
granted regular admission. The "conditional admission" status will
be continued for those students whose scores are unsatisfactory on
any one of the BSE components. These students will be referred to
the Department of Special Studies, where they will be required to
follow a course of study especially designed to assist them in over-
coming any deficiences in knowledge or skills revealed by the test
results. They will be granted regular admission status and per-
mitted to take college level courses (except for SOS 114) only after
they have achieved passing scores on the Basic Skills Examination.
SPECIAL STUDIES PROGRAM
The Special Studies program is designed for entering students
who have demonstrated marked deficiencies in English, Reading,
and Mathematics.
A "Special Studies Student" is any student whose score on either
of the BSE Tests was lower than the passing score "given below.
Such students must take all Special Studies courses (courses num-
bered 99 or below), unless the results of their BSE Tests place them
in one of the following categories:
1. Students who pass both the English and Reading tests but fail the
Mathematics test These students are only required to take Spe-
cial Studies Mathematics; they may enroll in any 100 level course
except Mathematics or courses having Mathematics as a pre-
requisite.
2. Students who pass the Mathematics test but fail either the Eng-
lish or Reading Test. These students may take 100 level Mathe-
matics courses. All other courses, except for Physical Educa-
tion Seasonal Activities courses, and Freshman Orientation,
must be Special Studies courses.
Special Studies Students will have one academic year in which to
demonstrate proficiency in those areas in which they were initially
deemed deficient. Such proficiency may be demonstrated by attain-
ing the score on the BSE Tests originally established as the passing
score (63 in English, 63 in Reading, 63 in Mathematics). Students
who do not demonstrate such proficiency within one year will not be
permitted to continue matriculation at Savannah State College un-
less special approval has been recommended by the Special Studies
Department and approved by the academic dean.
19
ADVANCED PLACEMENT AND CREDIT
BY EXAMINATION
Savannah State College gives advanced placement, and in some
cases college credit, for college level high school courses, on the basis of
the high school teacher's recommendation, the student's grade on the
Advanced Placement Examination of the CEEB, and approval by the
appropriate department head of Savannah State College.
College credit may be granted for satisfactory scores on the General
Examinations of the College- Level Examination Program (CLEP),
for satisfactory completion of appropriate courses and tests offered
through the United States Armed Forces Institute (USAFI), and for
military service schools and experience as recommended by the
Commission on Accreditation of Service Experiences of the American
Council on Education. Such credits may not exceed more than one-
fourth of the work counted toward a degree.
TRANSFER STUDENTS
General policies governing admission of transfer students and
acceptance of credit toward advanced standing are as follows:
1. All regulations applicable to students entering college for the
first time shall be applicable to students transferring from other
colleges, insofar as the regulations are pertinent to the appli-
cations of transfer students.
2. A student transferring from another college will supply the
Director of Admissions with transcripts of his records at col-
leges previously attended. These transcripts must be sent
directly from the registrars at the previous colleges to the
Director of Admissions. The Director of Admissions will deter-
mine the applicant's academic qualifications on the basis of
these transcripts. An applicant will not be considered for ad-
mission unless transcripts of his record show honorable dis-
charge from colleges attended.
3. A student transferring from another college must show that at
some time he has taken the College Entrance Examination Board
Scholastic Aptitude Test or that he has taken an equivalent test
approved by Savannah State College.
4. Transfer applicants must pay a $10.00 non-refundable appli-
cation fee.
5. Persons who have earned grades of "C" or higher in courses
taken at accredited colleges and who, in the judgment of the
Committee on Admissions, have presented otherwise satisfac-
tory credentials may be admitted. Those courses that are equiv-
20
alent to courses offered at Savannah State College will be ac-
cepted toward advanced standing, provided that a grade of "C"
or higher was earned. Students transferring from any unit
within the University System of Georgia will be credited for
courses on the same basis as students originally enrolled at
Savannah State College.
6. Credit allowed for hours completed in either extension or cor-
respondence courses shall not exceed 45 quarter hours.
7. A transfer student who has earned excessive credit in fresh-
man and sophomore courses may not be granted credit in ex-
cess of 90 quarter hours below the junior class level.
8. The college reserves the right to reject any or all credits from
other institutions notwithstanding their accredited status when
it determines through investigation or otherwise that the qual-
ity of instruction at such institutions is for any reason deficient
or unsatisfactory. The judgment of the college on this question
shall be final.
9. The evaluation of transfer credit is given a student upon ad-
mission. The college reserves the right to disallow transfer credit
for courses if a student's subsequent grades in required courses
in the same subject fall below average.
TRANSIENT STUDENTS
A student who has taken work in another college may apply for
the privilege of temporary registration at Savannah State College.
Such a student will ordinarily be one who expects to return to the
college in which he was previously enrolled.
The following policies shall govern the admission of students with
transient status:
1. The admissions officer of Savannah State College must be furn-
ished evidence that the institution the student previously at-
tended was an accredited or approved institution.
2. An applicant will be accepted as a transient student only when
it appears that the applicant's previous academic work is of a
satisfactory or superior quality. The Director of Admissions
shall have the right to require the applicant to submit a trans-
cript of his previous college work.
3. An applicant for admission as a transient student must present
a statement from the dean or registrar of the institution that he
last attended recommending his admission as a transient stu-
dent. A transcript is not normally required.
21
READMISSION OF FORMER STUDENTS
A student who has not been enrolled at Savannah State for one or
more quarters must apply for readmission on a form provided by
the Admissions Office. This requirement does not apply to students
who do not register for courses during the summer quarter. A for-
mer student who has not attended another college since leaving Sa-
vannah State may be readmitted provided he is not on suspension at
the time he wishes to reenter. A former student who has attended
another college since leaving Savannah State must meet require-
ments for readmission as a transfer student or as a transient stu-
dent, whichever is applicable. A student who is readmitted after an
absence from the College for more than two years must meet degree
requirements as listed in the bulletin in effect at the time of his
return. An additional application fee is not required.
JOINT ENROLLMENT PROGRAM
Savannah State College in cooperation with the Chatham County
Public School System, offers an early admissions program for those
students who have completed the eleventh grade in high school and
who have demonstrated outstanding academic potential. The stu-
dent may enroll full-time at the College while remaining on the rolls
of his local high school. After successfully meeting all established
criteria, the student may be awarded a high school diploma at the
end of his freshman year in college. For further information on this
program, the prospective applicant should consult his high school
counselor and/or request information from the Admissions Office at
Savannah State College.
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. A total of 45 quarter hours may be taken as a
special student. Any special student who decides subsequently to
enroll in a regular college program must then satisfy all of the
requirements of regular admission.
AUDITORS
Regularly enrolled students at Savannah State College may be
permitted to audit courses, provided permission is obtained from the
instructor in charge of the course and the Dean of the College. A
student auditing the course will not be placed on the rolls and no
report will be made to the Registrar.
Members of the faculty or staff of Savannah State College may
audit courses, provided permission is obtained from the department
concerned and the Registrar.

CAMPUS RESIDENCY POLICY. Effective September, 1, 1975,
in accordance with the policies of Savannah State College, all fresh-
man, sophomore, and junior students who are not residents of Chat-
ham County and who are not commuting from their homes outside
of Chatham County will be required to reside in the dormitories on
the campus of Savannah State College. All students are required to
take the Three-Meal Plan.
Students are not required to live on the campus during the sum-
mer quarter, but those who elect to live in the dormitories must
purchase at least two meals.
MARRIED STUDENTS DORMITORY. Effective the Fall Quar-
ter 1978, a dormitory for legally married students enrolled for at
least 10 credit hours will be available for leasing at the following
rate: one-bedroom apartment, $430 per quarter; efficiency, $345 per

REFUND OF FEES
Students ill at home or otherwise unable to follow the official
procedure for withdrawing, should write or have someone write to
the Dean of Students, requesting permission to withdraw.
No refund of fees for any term will be authorized unless the fore-
going procedure is completed before the end of such term. The ma-
triculation fee and non-resident fee are subject to the following re-
fund policy which was adopted by the Board of Regents on January
20, 1947:
For students who withdraw during the first 7 days (including the
first day of registration) of the quarter, 80% of the fees may be
refunded; for students who withdraw during the second 7-day pe-
riod a refund of 60% will be made; for students who withdraw no
later than the end of the third 7-day period following registration, a
refund of 40% may be granted; for students who withdraw during
the fourth 7-day period following the scheduled registration date, a
refund of 20% will be granted. No refund will be made to students
who withdraw after the end of the fourth 7-day period following
registration. (Only matriculation and non-resident fees will be re-
funded.)
Room, board and laundry charges will be made through the end of
the week during which the student withdraws. A student who
wishes to withdraw from the dining hall and dormitories must se-
cure a permit from the personnel dean. This permit when submitted
with the dining hall meal book will entitle the student to a refund.
The student activity and health fees are not refundable. In addi-
tion, refunds will not be made to students who do not withdraw
officially; nor will refunds be given for reduced loads.
26
All refunds will be processed and mailed to the student within two
weeks following the end of the refund period.
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
The COLLEGE WORK-STUDY [CWSJ PROGRAM provides jobs
for students who have great financial need and who must earn a
part of their educational expenses. You may apply if you are en-
rolled at least half-time as a Graduate, Undergraduate , or Voca-
tional student in an approved postsecondary educational institution.
Savannah State College, as a participant in College Work Study,
arranges jobs on campus or off campus with a public or private non-
profit agency, such as a hospital. If you are found to be eligible, you
may be employed for as many as 40 hours a week.
In arranging a job and determining how many hours a week you
may work under this program, the financial aid officer will take
into account: (1) your need for financial assistance; (2) your class
schedule; and (3) your health and academic progress . Students who
fail to earn satisfactory grades or who reduce their class loads by
two-thirds or more without the approval of the Dean of the College
will not be eligible for assistance during the ensuing quarter.
Students who plan to apply for part-time work should note care-
fully:
1. No student should attempt to enter Savannah State College un-
less he is prepared to pay the major part of his total college
expenses.
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.
THE NATIONAL DIRECT STUDENT LOAN (NDSL) PRO-
GRAM is for students who are enrolled at least half-time in a par-
ticipating post-secondary institution and who need a loan to meet
their educational expenses.
Students may borrow a total of: (a) $2,500 if they are enrolled in a
vocational program or have completed less than two years of a pro-
gram leading to a bachelor's degree; (b) $5,000 if an undergraduate
who has already completed 2 years of study toward a bachelor's
degree.
Repayment begins months after the student graduates or leaves
school for other reasons. A student may be allowed up to 10 years to
pay back the loan. During the repayment period borrowers will be
charged 3 percent interest on the unpaid balance of the loan prin-
cipal.
27
No payments are required for up to three years for persons who
subsequently serve in the Armed Forces, Peace Corps, or VISTA.
Applications should be submitted to the Office of Financial Aid.
That Office will provide information about loan cancellation pro-
visions for borrowers who go into certain fields of teaching or spe-
cific military duty.
The GUARANTEED STUDENT LOAN PROGRAM enables a
student to borrow directly from a bank, credit union, savings and
loan association, or other participating lender who is willing to
make the educational loan to him/her. The loan is either guaranteed
by a State or private nonprofit agency or is insured by the Federal
Government.
A student may apply for a loan if he is enrolled or has been
accepted for enrollment at least half-time in an eligible college or
university, a school of nursing, or a vocational, technical, trade, busi-
ness, or home study school. You do not need a high school diploma in
order to borrow.
The maximum that a student may borrow is $2,500 a year (in
some states it is less). Interest cannot be more than 7 percent.
The total amount that a student may borrow for undergraduate or
vocational study is $7,500. The total is $10,000 for graduate study
alone or in combination with undergraduate study.
To apply for the Federal Interest Benefits, students must submit
to the lender a recommendation from their school as to the amount
they need to meet educational expenses. If a student qualifies for
these benefits, the Federal Government will pay the interest for him
until he must begin repaying the principal.
A student who does not qualify for Federal Interest Benefits may
still borrow, but will have to pay his own interest from the time he
takes out the loan until it is paid off.
All borrowers must submit an AFFIDAVIT that the loan will be
used only for educational purposes. It must be signed before a no-
tary or other person authorized to administer oaths.
The LOAN MUST BE REPAID. Payments begin between 9 and
12 months after a student graduates or leaves school; he may be
allowed to take up to 10 years to pay if off. The amount of his
payments depends upon the size of his debt; but he must pay at least
$360 a year.
28
Pickett and Hatcher Educational Fund
This fund was established by the late Mr. Claud Adkins Hatcher
of Columbus, Georgia, for the purpose of helping worthy and de-
serving students in the pursuit of their college education. Applica-
tions and additional information may be secured from the Pickett
and Hatcher Educational Fund, P.O. Box 2128, Columbus, Georgia.
Law Enforcement Education Program
This program is intended to develop professional law enforcement
officers through higher education. It provides educational oppor-
tunity through financial aid and is directed to students having the
ability and desire to provide professional performance in the crimi-
nal justice system.
Two types of financial aid are provided:
1. A loan not to exceed $1,800 per academic year for full-time
study toward a certificate, associate or higher degree in areas
directly related to and required in law enforcement; and
2. Grants not to exceed $200 per quarter for part-time study of
degree-creditable courses related to and useful in law enforce-
ment.
Grants are limited to law enforcement officers, and loans are
available to full-time students, pre-service or in-service. An eligible
officer may also qualify for a loan if he is both a full-time student
and a full-time employee.
Students are carefully selected, their sincerity and willingness to
pursue careers in criminal justice being taken into consideration.
The SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY
GRANT [SEOG] PROGRAM is for students of EXCEPTIONAL
FINANCIAL NEED who without the grant would be unable to
continue their education.
The student is eligible to apply if he is enrolled at least half-time
as an UNDERGRADUATE or VOCATIONAL student in an educa-
tional institution participating in the program. Graduate students
are not eligible.
If he receives an SEOG, it cannot be less than $200 or more than
$1,500 a year. Normally, an SEOG may be received for up to four
years. However, the grant may be received for five years when the
course of study requires the extra time. The total that may be
awarded is $4,000 for a four year course of study or $5,000 for a five
year course.
29
If he is selected for an SEOG, his educational institution must
provide him with ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE at
least equal to the amount of the grant.
The BASIC EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANT PRO-
GRAM [BEOG] makes funds available to eligible students attending
approved COLLEGES, COMMUNITY/JUNIOR COLLEGES, VO-
CATIONAL SCHOOLS, TECHNICAL INSTITUTES, HOSPITAL
SCHOOLS OF NURSING, and other post-high school institutions.
To apply for a Basic Grant, you must complete a form called
"application for determination of basic grant
eligibility: 1
The student may get copies of the application from postsecondary
educational institutions, high schools, Talent Search, Upward Bound
projects, and public libraries, or by writing to P.O. Box 84, Wash-
ington, D.C. 20044.
STUDENT LIFE
Savannah State College makes a concerted effort to insure whole-
some personal development and growth for those students who re-
side 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 scarves.
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 de-
veloping standards of conduct and determining social regulations
for the groups.
Dormitory life for men is supervised by the Dean of Students and
the head resident. Practice in democratic living is provided through
dormitory organization, enabling the men to work with the staff in
planning projects, stimulating achievement, and promoting opti-
mum personal 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 dormi-
tories.
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.
30
RELIGIOUS LIFE
Savannah State College puts great emphasis upon a rich and var-
ied religious life program. Through its religious activities, the Col-
lege 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 as vital part of the
life of the well educated citizen.
The annual New Dimensions in Life 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 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.
In the broadest sense, the student personnel program is concerned
first with the life of the student outside the classroom. This defini-
tion, 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 Col-
lege.
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 prob-
lems, have reasonable recreational and social opportunities, and are
adequately housed and properly fed.
The purpose of the student personnel program is the establish-
ment of these optimum conditions for each student. It should be
noted, however, that these objectives are not exclusively the prov-
ince 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.
31
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 rou-
tine procedures, with campus traditions, with the opportunities of-
fered for training here, and with specialized vocational guidance.
This program concentrates on all freshman 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, and the
Comprehensive 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 stu-
dent may not change his major during the registration period, nor
during the week before and the week after registration. The re-
sponsibility for selection of courses rests, in the final analysis, upon
the student. It is the primary duty of the student to meet the re-
quirements of his curriculum. A request from the advisor to the
student for conference should be complied with promptly.
Health Services
The college health services are maintained to improve and safe-
guard 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
32
the Veterans Administration. He collects and disseminates informa-
tion 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
efforts of organized groups, programs are planned for the social,
religious, and cultural advancement of the college community.

Recreation and Sports
The Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation
conducts a well-rounded intramural athletic program of seasonal
activities for men and for women. Utilizing group games and vari-
ous sports for their full educational and health values, the program
features football, basketball, track and field, tennis, golf, baseball,
softball, volley-ball, field hockey, badminton, and swimming.
A member of the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Confer-
ence, Savannah State College maintains competition in all sports
sponsored by the conference. Savannah State College also holds
membership in two national athletic associations, NCAA and NAIA.
Qualified instructors in the Department of Health, Physical Edu-
cation, and Recreation provide training in the several aspects of the
required activity program. Recreational activities, social dancing,
swimming and free exercise activities are encouraged and centered
in this area. The department makes every effort to provide whole-
some recreational activities for all students.
Cultural Activities
To complement formal education on the campus, the College pro-
vides 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.
34
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.
35
ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
ACADEMIC ADVISEMENT
Each student at Savannah State College is assigned an advisor
who has the responsibility of assisting the student in planning and
completing an appropriate academic program. The Dean of the Col-
lege provides general direction to the advisement program, with
division chairpersons and department heads coordinating activities
within their respective areas, assigning advisors to students major-
ing in the academic discipline(s) for which the division or depart-
ment is responsible. The Director of the Comprehensive Counselling
Center assigns advisors from his staff to those students who are
undecided about the discipline in which they will major. Each stu-
dent is required to plan his or her academic program with the ad-
visor's assistance, and to obtain the advisor's approval of his sched-
ule of courses each Quarter. Each advisor has the responsibility of
counselling with his advisees about the appropriateness of the aca-
demic program they have selected as well as the appropriateness of
the schedules of courses selected by the advisee to the timely com-
pletion of that program. In addition, the advisor has the responsi-
bility of monitoring the academic progress of his advisees, and of
assisting them in evaluating their progress and in making decisions
about their present and future academic careers based upon that
evaluation.
Advisors of junior and senior students will concern themselves
specifically with the student's progress toward graduation, main-
taining a continually updated record of courses taken and grades
received. The advisor will also assist his advisees in completing the
Application for Graduation, and will certify to the Registrar that all
requirements had been met up to the time that the Application was
prepared.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
In classroom exercises and in laboratory and other class related
activities, Savannah State College endeavors to provide optimum
conditions for student learning. Class attendance is therefore re-
quired 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 con-
tingencies. Any student is allowed unexcused absences equal to 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 in any
course will receive the grade of F in that course.
36
STUDENT LOAD
Under ordinary circumstances a student may enroll in courses up
to but not in excess of eighteen (18) quarter hours. Exceptions 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 advisor and approved by the
Dean of the College.
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
WF
Withdrew,
failing
per credit hour
The grade "F" indicates that the student has failed to meet the
minimum requirements of the course.
All courses in the major, minor, professional education or fresh-
man English in which the grade of D is earned must be repeated.
The grade of D, like higher grades, can be raised only by repeating
the course in which the D was earned.
The following grades also also used, but are not included in the
determination of the grade point average.
I (Incomplete) This symbol indicates that a student was doing
satisfactory work, but for non-academic reasons beyond his control,
was unable to meet the requirements of the course. The student may
remove the I by completing the remaining requirements within three
quarters of residence; otherwise the grade of I will be changed to
the grade of F by the Registrar. It is the student's responsibility to
initiate the completion of unfulfilled requirements with the instruc-
tor.
W (Withdrawal) This symbol indicates that a student was per-
mitted to withdraw without penalty. Withdrawals without penalty
will not be permitted after the mid-point of the total grading period
(including final examinations), except in cases of hardship as deter-
mined by the Dean of the College.
37
In order to obtain a grade of W, 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 with-
drawal occurred.
S (Satisfactory) This symbol indicates that credit has been given
for completion of degree requirements other than course work. The
use of this symbol is approved for thesis hours, student teaching,
clinical practicum, and internship.
U (Unsatisfactory) This indicates that an unsuccessful effort was
made in one of the above categories.
V (Audit) This symbol indicates that a student was given per-
mission to audit the course. Students may not transfer from audit to
credit or vice versa.
K (Credit) This symbol indicates that a student was given credit
for the course via a credit by examination program approved by
his department.
REPORTING OF GRADES
At Mid-Quarter, and at the end of each quarter each faculty mem-
ber submits to the Office of the Registrar the Grade Reports for
each of his classes. These Reports are prepared in multiple copies,
with copies for the Registrar, the Dean of the College, the Depart-
ment head, and the Instructor. In addition, each student receives a
Grade Report at the end of each quarter containing the grades and
credit hours earned 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 students whose work
in a course is below the C level at mid-quarter. The Office of the
Registrar sends copies of such reports to the students, their parents
or guardian(s), and to the department heads.
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 of conclusive,
documentary evidence that the grade was reported in error;
2. By following the procedure for removal of an I (incomplete)
grade; or
3. Upon the recommendation by a committee appointed to con-
duct a hearing of a student's challenge of a grade, and the
acceptance of that recommendation by the Dean of the College.
38
GRADE CHALLENGES BY STUDENTS
A student who feels that he has received an unfair grade in any
course may challenge that grade by writing a letter of appeal to the
head of the department in which the course was offered. Upon re-
ceipt of an appeal letter the department head consults with the
instructor, either with or without the student, in an effort to effect a
resolution. If a resolution satisfactory to the student is not effected,
the department head appoints a Review Committee (exclusive of
both the department head and the instructor.) The Review Com-
mittee, after hearing both the instructor and the student, with each
having the right to question the other, submits its report and recom-
mendation to the Dean of the College (through the department head.)
If the Dean accepts the Review Committee's recommendation that
the grade be changed or if he reverses a recommendation that a
grade not be changed, he directs the Registrar to make the appro-
priate change on the student's record.
CALCULATING THE CUMULATIVE AVERAGE
The cumulative grade point average will be calculated by divid-
ing the number of hours in all courses attempted in which a grade of
A, B, C, D, F, or WF has been received into the number of grade
points earned. The cumulative grade point average will be recorded
on the student's permanent record. Institutional credit shall in no
way affect the cumulative grade point average.
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 deficiencies, are eligible for honors status as here indi-
cated:
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.
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 that quarter.
3. Students who maintain an average of 3.00 during any quarter
may secure permission to take additional hours during the fol-
lowing quarter, the total not to exceed twenty hours. Addi-
tionally, students whose general average is 3.00 or better may
be permitted to take quarter 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
39
quarter hours at Savannah State College. In addition, students who
graduate with honors must attain the following grade-point aver-
ages for the entire period of college attendance:
Cum Laude 3.00
Magna Cum Laude 3.40
Summa Cum Laude 3.75
ACADEMIC PROBATION,
SUSPENSION, AND DISMISSAL
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
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 the
College prior to notification of students and their parents or guard-
ians of the academic probation, suspension, or dismissal of students.
In addition, he shall notify other appropriate personnel of this action.
1. Any student who earns a D or F in English 107, 108, or 109
or in any course required in his/her major, minor, or pro-
fessional education sequence must repeat the course during
the next quarter that it is offered.
2. Freshman (0-45 hours) or transfer students who fail to achieve
a cumulative average of at least 1.00 after one quarter of resi-
dence will not be permitted to enroll during the succeeding
quarter.
3. Students in the regular college program who fail to achieve
or maintain a cumulative average of 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)
and not 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 concentra-
tion and Freshman English in which he earned the grade of
D; (3) must report to his academic advisor for counseling im-
mediately 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 the succeeding quarter.
40
6. A student who does not remove his probationary status within
two quarters will be suspended for one quarter unless he/she
achieves a 2.50 average during the second quarter of the pro-
bation period. Thereafter, the probation will be continued,
without suspension, so long as the student continues to make a
2.50 average for each quarter that he/she is enrolled.
7. Any student who fails all of his classes during a given quarter,
or who withdraws from all of his classes without an approved
withdrawal from the college, will not be permitted to enroll
for the succeeding quarter.
8. A student who has been suspended for academic reasons may
be readmitted when he/she has complied with the following
procedures:
a. Submission of an Application for Readmission at least thirty
(30) days prior to the beginning of the quarter that he
expects to return;
b. Submission of evidence of increased motivation and ma-
turity;
c. Passing of a readmission test.
The College reserves the right to deny admission to any student who
has been suspended for academic reasons.
9. Applications for Readmission are considered by the Commit-
tee on Admission on the basis of detailed information con-
cerning the cause of failure, academic goals, entrance tests,
college grades previously earned, length of absence, motiva-
tion, outside commitments, and recommendations from appro-
priate personnel.
10. A student who has been readmitted will be allowed three
quarters to remove his probationary status; however, if he
maintains a minimum grade point average of 2.50 each quar-
ter 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.
WITHDRAWING FROM COLLEGE
Students at Savannah State College are regarded as young adults
who are capable of making mature decisions, with minimum coun-
41
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
approve the request for withdrawal and forward the appropriate
forms to the offices of the Dean of the College, the Registrar, and the
Comptroller.
Students not able to follow this procedure should write or have a
representative write to the Dean of Students, requesting permission
to withdraw. Students who withdraw without giving formal notice
will forfeit claims for any refunds.

REGENTS EXAMINATION
To be eligible for graduation, all students enrolled in degree pro-
grams are required by the University System to successfully com-
plete a test of competence in the areas of reading and writing Stan-
dard English. A student is eligible to take the Regents Examination*
after having completed 45 hours. No student may delay taking the
test later than the quarter after he has completed his 75th credit
hour. Transfer students who have not successfully completed the
test must do so at their earliest opportunity.
43
Students who fail the Regents Examination* must enroll in Eng-
lish 092 during their next quarter of enrollment. They may not take
the Examination again until they have completed the course, and
must take the course each subsequent quarter until they pass the Ex-
amination.
Students who have not passed the Regents Examination by the
time they have earned one hundred twenty (120) quarter hours in
college level course work will not be permitted to enroll in any
additional classes except remedial English. These classes will be
designated English 093, in contrast to the classes for students who
have not completed 120 hours. These will continue to be labeled
English 092. Such students may not sit for the Regents Examination
until they have completed one quarter in English 093. They may not
sit for any additional administrations of the Regents Examination
until they have completed an additional quarter of English 093.
Students who, by September, 1977, have already earned one hun-
dred twenty (120) degree credit hours and have not passed the Re-
gents Examination, will be permitted to enroll in only fifteen hours
of course work, including English 093, until they pass the Regents
Examination. After three quarters of enrollment, these students will
not be permitted to enroll in any classes except English 093, English
093 will be carried as the equivalent of five (5) quarter hours, but
will be a non-credit course.
Students who, by September, 1977, have already earned more
than ninety but less than one hundred twenty degree credit hours
without having passed the Regents Examination, will be allowed
three additional quarters of enrollment, provided that the total ac-
cumulated hours do not exceed one hundred fifty (150).

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, eocur-
ricular activities, and individual counseling for careful selection of
courses in accordance with student aptitudes and interests, the Divi-
sion 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. Employment in the hospitality industry and industrial manage-
ment;
5. Further study in accounting, business economics, general busi-
ness, business education, and other specialized areas in busi-
ness.
To realize these aims, the Division offers courses leading to the
degree of Bachelor of Business Administration, and a terminal pro-
gram leading to a certificate of proficiency in various phases of
office administration and the hospitality industry.
DEGREE PROGRAMS
A student in business administration may pursue a major in one
of six general areas: (1) accounting, (2) general business administra-
tion, (3) economics, (4) office administration, (5) finance or (6) mar-
keting management. Persons desiring to become certified as teach-
ers of business subjects on the secondary level will major in Office
Administration, and will complete professional education courses in
46
the Division of Education as a minor, inasmuch as they must also
meet requirements set by the Georgia State Department of Teacher
Education and Certification.
INTER-COLLEGIATE 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 typewrit-
ing 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 pre-
pare 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 type-
writing proficiency shall be filed with the Registrar. Credit hours,
however, shall not be awarded unless the student is officially en-
rolled 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 per-
sonnel 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 arrange-
ment of requirements before selecting courses for periodic registra-
tion.
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, 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
47
record of all other college requirements, and the date of expected
graduation.
COOPERA TIVESAND INTERNSHIPS. The Division encourages
students to obtain work experiences in the areas of vocational choices
during the formal four-year program. Several opportunities are
available through the Division: (1) In cooperation with accounting
firms, the Winter Quarter Full-Time Internship experience is avail-
able 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 completion of
the Freshman year (a minimum of 36 weeks is required on the job,
but may be broken into two or four periods, with the student re-
turning 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
Camp Company; 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, it spearheads the
process of continuous planning, experimentation, and evaluation of
the total teacher education program; (2) it assumes leadership re-
sponsibility for the selection, guidance, and professional preparation
of students who will teach in elementary, middle 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 PROVISON 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 Second-
ary 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 re-
sources, and facilities of the entire institution.
ACCREDITATION AND CERTIFICATION
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 Accredita-
tion of Teacher Education. The programs include: early elementary
education; middle school education; secondary education with con-
centrations in business education, English, French, industrial arts
education, mathematics, science, social studies, Spanish, and trade
and industrial education; elementary, middle school and secondary
education (grades 1-12) in art education, health, physical education
and recreation, and music education. These curriculums lead to the
61
degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. Completion of either of
these programs entitles the graduate to be recommended for cer-
tification to the Georgia Division of Certification. Reciprocal cer-
tification within many states is possible through NCATE accredi-
tation for the graduate.

DIVISION OF HUMANITIES
LUETTA C. MILLEDGE, Chairperson
The humanities embrace those skills, understandings, and appre-
ciations which make for a well-rounded life. Imbued with the ideas,
values, and ideals that exalt life, the humanities emphasize the im-
pact of great minds and imaginations of the past upon great minds
and. imaginations of the present, and constantly point the way to the
good life.
Specifically, the Division of Humanities provides opportunity for
study and analysis of the language, literature, art, and music of the
world. The study and analyses are aimed at motivating the student
to expand his/her aesthetic horizon, to enliven his/her spirit of in-
ventiveness and individuality, and to acquire a finer appreciation
and understanding 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,
and creative inquiry and thinking. The Department aims to help the
student develop these aspects of his/her personality and intellect: (1)
oral and written language proficiency, including an awareness of
linguistic plurality: (2) critical knowledge and consequent appre-
ciation 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/her ma-
jor area of study should be able to distinguish between genuinely

great literature and that which is less than great. He/She should
have a critical acquaintance with a representative number of mas-
terpieces in American, English, and world literature; he/she should
be aware of the seminal ideas, concepts, and archetypes informing
these works; and he/she should have some facility in applying the
major critical approaches to literature. The English major is ex-
pected to demonstrate facility and taste in expression, to have a
satisfactory knowledge of the history and nature of the English lan-
guage, and to be cognizant of dialectal variety in American English.
In addition to the proficiencies already listed, the English Edu-
cation major should have knowledge of the major methods of teach-
ing the language arts and skills, including an awareness of the most
recent approaches to teaching rhetoric and composition and a knowl-
edge of modern trends in teaching literature and language.
PLAN OF STUDY
All freshman students are required to take a placement test in
English and, on the basis of achievement on the test, are assigned to
sections of English 107 or to English courses in the Special Studies

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 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 participa-
tion. 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 nec-
essary 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 pro-
gram 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 appli-
cant's theoretical knowledge, instrumental and vocal proficiency,

DEPARTMENT OF MODERN
LANGUAGES
JOSEPH C. ANDERSON, Head
Alethea V. Morton
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 cul-
tural heritage. Underlying these aims is the ultimate goal of prep-
aration for a more effective life.
LANGUAGE PROGRAMS
To realize these aims the Department offers instruction in the
foreign languages (French, German, and Spanish). 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 quar-
ter hours in one foreign language, beyond the elementary courses. A
student completing the degree requirements with one of these se-
quences may be recommended for certification to teach the lan-
guage. Courses in the second year are mainly conducted in the
foreign language, in the third year almost exclusively, and in the
fourth year, entirely.
102
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
Students who have had no foreign language and those who present
fewer than two units of high school credit normally take the ele-
mentary 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 admin-
istered 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 gradua-
tion.

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 illus-
tration, medical social worker, and medical secretaries; (3) to pro-
vide preprofessional study through the media of advanced courses
for persons interested in careers requiring graduate work such as
industrial and biological research, public health, college-level teach-
ing, medical school teaching, secondary school teaching, and spe-
cialists in the biological sciences.
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 satis-
fying requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Education with a

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,
203, and 206 comprise the basic Modern Biology Core requirements
for all students majoring in Biology, and who desire training pre-
paratory 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 concentration. The Biology Electives Option becomes a part
of the student's formal record as requirements for graduation filed
in the Department and in the Registrar's Office.
Students interested in paramedical (Health) careers satisfy the
two-year basic Modern Biology Core sequence and science cognates
according 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 quar-
ter hours of junior and senior level courses are required.

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 provide the needed semi-spe-
cialized preparation for students who are majoring in home eco-
nomics and engineering technology; (3) to afford training for per-
sons who plan to teach science in the secondary school; and (4) to
provide preprofessional training for students who intend to study
dentistry, 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. The department also offers a
118
Dual Degree Chemical Engineering Program whereby the student
attends SSC for approximately three academic years and Georgia

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 appre-
ciation 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 and engineering, and for 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 Edu-
cation. The Department has designed its program so that its grad-
uates may have a background to seek advanced degrees in mathe-
matics. The Department also offers minors in Mathematics, in

The Naval Reserve Officers' Training Corps academic program is
designed to prepare selected students for commissioned service as
regular or reserve officers in the Navy or Marine Corps.
In support of this purpose the basic and primary mission of the
NROTC program is as follows:
To develop Midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to
imbue them with the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in
order to commission college graduates as officers who possess a
basic professional background, are motivated toward careers in
the Naval Service and have a potential for future development
in mind and character so as to assume the highest responsi-
bilities of command, citizenship and government.
The primary objectives of the NROTC Program are to provide
NROTC students with:
(1) an understanding of the fundamental concepts and principles
of naval science;
(2) a basic understanding of associated professional knowledge;
(3) an appreciation of the requirements for national security;
(4) a strong sense of personal integrity, honor, and individual
responsibility; and
(5) an educational background which will allow 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.

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

degree in history. Curriculum II leads to the B.S. degree with a
concentration in sociology. Curriculum III leads to the B.S. degree
in criminal justice. Curriculum IV leads to the B.A. degree in
political science. Curriculum V leads to the B.A. degree in social
work and is offered as a joint program with Armstrong State
College. Curriculum VI leads to the B.S. degree in social studies
education with concentrations in the social sciences, history, poli-
tical science, and the behavorial sciences.
Persons interested in careers in law, diplomatic service, and
research should choose curriculum I; persons interested in positions
as probation officer, vocational counselor, camp counselor, employ-
ment interviewer, juvenile court worker, and official in the immigra-
tion service should choose curriculum II; persons interested in
careers in general law enforcement, and/or security should choose
curriculum III; persons interested in government service, federal,
144
state, or local should choose curriculum IV; and persons interested
in careers as social workers should choose curriculum V; persons

The basic aim of the Special Studies Program is to provide basic,
developmental, and corrective instruction for entering students who
demonstrate marked deficiencies in English, reading, and mathe-
matics. The Special Studies Program (formerly the Developmental
Education Program and/or Demonstration Development) was ini-
tiated at Savannah State College by the Regents of the University
System of Georgia in 1969. The administration gave the Department
full academic status at the beginning of the 1973-74 fiscal year.
Entering freshmen who earned a combined score of less than 750
on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) must sit for the Basic Skills
Examination (BSE), which is used by the University System of
Georgia to determine satisfactory levels of performance. In order for
the conditionally admitted students (students who scored below 750
on the SAT) to achieve regular status, he/she must attain a score of
63 or above on the BSE English test, reading test, mathematics test.
*On leave
172
Results of the three area tests determine whether such students will
enroll in the regular freshman college program or the Special
Studies Program. To illustrate: students whose test results (test
scores of 63 or above) indicate a lack of serious deficiencies in the
three areas considered, qualify for admission into the regular Fresh-
man College Program. Such students are accorded full freshman
status. However students who score below 63 on any area(s) of the
BSE must enroll in the Special Studies Program with one of the
following placements:
1. If there are academic deficiencies in English Communicative
Skills, reading comprehension, and mathematics, only courses
in Special Studies, physical activity, and freshman seminar
will be taken.
2. If there are academic deficiencies in mathematics but an in-
dication of likely success in English communicative skills and
reading comprehension, the student will register for a Special
Studies course in mathematics and for courses which carry
regular college credit in academic areas for which mathe-
matics is not a prerequisite.
3. 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 Stud-
ies course in English Communicative Skills and reading com-
prehension and for courses which carry regular college credit
in mathematics and/or science.
To successfully complete the Special Studies Program, a student
must maintain at least a "C" average in classwork and attain the
minimum score of 63 on the mathematics, reading, and/or English
test(s). In addition to attaining a minimum score of 63 on the
English test, a student enrolled in Special Studies English must
satisfactorily complete a writing sample in accordance with the
guidelines set by the University System of Georgia. If a student has
a class average below "C", he/she will not be allowed to sit for the
BSE. Furthermore, any student who does not satisfy the above
criteria must repeat the courses, which he/she did not successfully
complete during the subsequent quarter of his/her residency.
Students enrolled in Special Studies courses will have one aca-
demic 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 within one aca-
demic year will not be allowed to continue matriculation at Savan-
nah State College. They will be suspended for one academic quarter,
unless they are given permission by an academic review board to
remain an additional quarter to remediate deficiencies.
173
Upon satisfactory termination of all required Special Studies
courses, students are admitted to the regular Freshman College
program.
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 class.
Courses offered by the Department of Special Studies include the
following:
ENG 97: English Fundamentals I - Basic Writing Skills
ENG 98: English Fundamentals II - Introduction to Composition
MAT 99: Mathematics Fundamentals
RDG 98: Reading Foundations I
RDG 99: Reading Foundations II
Special Studies courses will carry quarter hours credit and grades
of A, B, C, D, and F will be given. Students receiving grades of D
and F 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.
The grades students earn in Special Studies courses will be
determined by an evaluation of their course work and their per-
formance on the Basic Skills Examination (BSE). Scoring at or
above the Regents' cut-off score on the BSE is requisite for students'
receiving a minimum passing grade of "C" in Special Studies
courses.
Savannah State College will award only institutional credit for
Special Studies courses. That is, 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.
DESCRIPTION OF COURSES FOR
SPECIAL STUDIES

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 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 Institutional Management and Textiles and
Clothing, and to a certificate in Dressmaking and Tailoring.
Offerings of this Division are designed to prepare graduates for
immediate employment as professional and semi-professional work-
ers in technical home economics and engineering technology. In-
tensive training for careers in these areas presupposes a good
foundation in the applied Sciences.
INDUSTRIAL TEACHER EDUCATION
This Division offers the required laboratory 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 in-
struction in a variety of industrial laboratory activities. This in-
struction, augmented by appropriate general and professional edu-
cation, 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 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 occupation he is
preparing to teach.
176
COOPERATIVE PROGRAM
The Division of Technical Sciences offers a cooperative program
in trade and industrial education, engineering technology and other
fields 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 quali-
fications of cooperating employers. 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 regu-
larly enrolled students while they are employed in industry; there-
fore, they may not enroll in classes at any educational institution
during the employment period. Students must observe all applicable
regulations of the employing company and must consider them-
selves 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 employ-
ment 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 Geor-
gia Institute of Technology to offer a Dual Degree Program where-
by undergraduate students can attend this institution for approxi-
mately three academic years and the latter institution for
approximately two academic years and receive baccalaureate de-
grees from both institutions. This program is open to majors in

The ultimate objective of the engineering technology program is
to provide the student with an educational experience that will
179
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, mathe-
matics, and the practices and materials of modern industry which
are utilized in the design and construction of the machines, struc-
tures, highways, power sources, communication systems, and prod-
ucts 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 crafts-
men who produce the devices and/or products.

PHILOSOPHY AND PURPOSE
The philosophy of the home economics profession is to help stabi-
lize 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 edu-
cation majors, enabling them to pursue a teaching career in
early childhood education, K-3rd grade;
5. Provide an interdisciplinary social science major outreach with
a minor in the disadvantaged and handicapped families.
GENERAL PROGRAM
The following four-year academic curricula in the Department of
Home Economics leads to the Bachelor of Science Degree in two
areas of specialization: Dietetics and Institutional Management, and
Textiles and Clothing.
A total of 195 quarter hours is required in the Dietetics and
Institutional Management curriculum and 195 quarter hours in the
Textiles and Clothing Curriculum.
