INTRODUCTION

The Guiding Principle:

In the total operation of Savannah
State College, the administration, the
faculty, and staff have no other purpose
than to serve students to the fullest
extent our knowledge, skills, abilities,
special talents, and resources will allow.
This principle serves as the foundation
that supports the essence of the "The
College by the Sea."

The Leadership:

Dr. John T Wolfe, Jr., the tenth president
of Savannah State College, developed the
guiding principle to motivate and remind
the faculty and staff to work on behalf of
the College's most important asset "the
student." President Wolfe has set in motion
the apparatus to complete a five-year plan
for the College. It has been able to severe
one million dollars in funding from
Chatham County to complete an Olympic
track and field facility; secure 1.1 million
dollars in Title III funding; bring national
exposure to Savannah State College
through his participation in a televised
conference on violence. Dr. Wolfe's testi-
mony before a House Committee led to
funding for the preservation of historic
buildings on historically black campuses.
He has developed initiatives to continue
SSC's advancement as a major educa-
tional resource in Savannah, Thunderbolt,
and Chatham County. He has established
a close relationship with students and
supports this relationship by holding
monthly meetings with the students. He
continues to strive to make this great
College even better.

By 1995-96 school year installation of a
campus-wide network with multiple file
servers for use by faculty and staff should
be completed. Banner, a software system,
will be installed on the network and will
be available for use by all faculty and sup-
port staff. Plans call for computers to be
placed on the desk of all faculty and staff
to make available access to the network.

The curriculum of the College is delivered through three schools and one
Division: The School of Business. The School of Humanities and Social Sciences,
The School o\ Sciences and Technology, and the Division of Learning Support.

PURPOSE AND GOALS OF THE
COLLEGE

MISSION STATEMENT:

Chartered by the State of Georgia in 1890 as a department of the State Uni-
versity "for the education and training of Negro students," Savannah State College
is a senior, residential unit of the University System of Georgia whose historic mis-
sion, while of continuing importance, has broadened to embrace individuals regard-
less of race, ethnicity, culture, or age. Central to this mission is a commitment to
accessibility and excellence. Within guidelines established by the Board of Regents,
the College encourages application from all who are interested in pursuing higher
education and admits students with varying levels of college preparedness. Through
its devotion to teaching, the College endeavors to produce graduates who can effec-
tively compete with their counterparts from other institutions for employment in
business, industry, human services, communications, government, and the military;
who succeed in post baccalaureate education, evidence broad intellect, uphold demo-
cratic principles and values, respect individual and cultural differences, and pro-
mote social justice.

Believing that a strong liberal arts foundation enhances career preparation and
promotes lifelong learning, the College requires students to complete a core curricu-
lum in the humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences in addition to the
requirements of their chosen fields of study. In the contest of a nurturing environ-
ment the College seeks to utilize the abundant possibilities for experiential and ser-
vice learning, the challenging potential of recent technology, and the richness of
world cultures to enhance students' learning, to respond to their differing cognitive
styles, to help them meaningfully link past, present and future, and to prepare
them for meeting the challenges of the global community.

The College purports to develop and implement curricular, co-curricular,
research, and public service activities that collectively address problems, issues,
resources, and opportunities of the coastal area, the state, the nation and the larger
world. Additionally, as a historically Black institution, Savannah State College is a
unique cultural resource for the coastal region and as such endeavors to interpret
and transmit the Black legacy to all.

Currently the College pursues its mission through efforts to achieve the follow-
ing goals:

1. To prepare undergraduate students in the areas of business, the humanities, the
sciences, the social sciences, and technology for careers and/or advanced study;

2. To prepare graduate students for careers in public administration, and social
work.

3. To introduce students to the content, structure, and methods of inquiry in the
broad fields of knowledge;

4. To strengthen students' basic skills in communications, quantitative thinking
and independent study;

5. To cultivate in students habits of critical thinking and problem solving;

6. To increase students' social competence in multi-racial, multi-ethnic, and multi-
cultural settings;

7. To deepen students' commitment to advocacy for human welfare and human
rights;

8. To offer learning opportunities for students with potential who might not.
ordinarily seek higher education;

9. To foster students' personal-social development in respect to physical fitness
and wellness; personal effectiveness hahits, human relations skills; and
appreciation of the arts;

10. To implement a support system for students which includes financial aid,
counseling, tutoring, job placement and follow-up;

11. To provide activities, programs, and services and to share personnel and
physical facilities to help meet community and regional needs for education,
recreation, entertainment, cultural events, technical assistance, and eco-
nomic development;

12. To encourage faculty research and scholarly and creative efforts to help solve
problems in surrounding communities and/or to contribute to the academic
disciplines.

HISTORY

By Act o( the General Assembly on November 26, 1890, the State of Georgia
"established ill connection with the State University, and forming one of the depart-
ments thereof, a school for the education and training of Negro students." A commis-
sion 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 ot 1802 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 Georgia. The Chancellor of the University of Georgia
was given general supervision of the school.

A preliminary session of the school was held between June 1 and August 1, 1891,
at the Baxter Street School building in Athens, Georgia. Richard R. Wright, the first
principal, and three other instructors comprised the faculty. In the following year
the school was moved to its present site, which is approximately five miles south-
east of the Courthouse of Savannah, Georgia, partly in Savannah 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, instruc-
tors in English, mathematics, and natural sciences, a superintendent of the
mechanical department, and a foreman of the farm. The College awarded its first
baccalaureate degree in 1898.

During the thirty years that Major Wright served as President of the College,
enrollment increased from 8 to 585 and the curriculum was expanded to include a
normal division in addition to four years of high school. Training in agriculture and
the mechanical arts also was begun.

The first women students were admitted as boarders in 1921; the first summer
session was conducted in 1922; and in 1925 the governing body of the College was
changed from a Commission with "perpetual succession" to a Board of Trustees
whose members were appointed for four year terms. All of these changes occurred
during the presidency of C.G. Wiley, the first alumnus of the College to become pres-
ident, who served from 1921 to 1926.

Under President Benjamin F. Hubert (1926-1947), the entire academic program
was reorganized. The high school and normal departments were discontinued and the
school became a four-year college. In 1931, when the University System was placed
under a Board of Regents, the College began to offer additional bachelor's degree
programs with majors in English, the natural sciences, social sciences, and business
administration, as well as in agriculture and home economics.

Until 1947, the college served as the State Land-Grant Institution for Negroes. In
that year this function was assumed by Fort Valley State College.

During the administration of President James A. Colston (1947-1949), the faculty
was strengthened, and improvements were made in the physical plant. Among the
programs that were launched at this time were the Alumni Scholarship Drive,
Campus Chest, Annual Men's Day, Religious Emphasis Week, Freshmen Week, and
the Cultural Artists Series. Expanded programs of students personnel services, pub-
lic relations, a reading clinic, and an audio visual aids laboratory were instituted
under the leadership of President Colston.

Dean W. K. Payne became acting president of the college on September 1, 1949.
The Regents of the University System of Georgia changed the name of the College
from Georgia State College to Savannah State College on January 18, L950. Dr.
Payne became the fifth President of the college in March, 1950; he served in this
capacity until his death on July 26, 1963.

At the beginning of Dr. Payne's administration, Savannah State College was
granted membership in the American Council on Education. During the course of
his administration the curriculum was expanded and improved and the institution
was admitted to membership in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
In addition, the academic program of the College was organized under seven divi-
sions Business Administration, Education, Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social
Sciences, Technical Sciences, and Home Study.

Timothy C. Meyers served as acting president from the time of Dr. Payne's death
until November 1, 1963. Meyers had served as dean of the faculty since September, 1953.

Under the leadership of Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr. (November 1, 1963 through
January 31, 1971), significant, far-reaching and innovative programs were initiated
in all aspects of the College's development. Curricula improvements in the general
education program in teacher education, and in business administration, as well as
other areas, were carried forward. A graduate studies program in elementary educa-
tion was initiated in the summer of 1968. The mantle of educational leadership at
Savannah State College passed from Dr. Jordan to Dr. Prince A. Jackson, Jr., on
February 1, 1971.

Many of the improvements and innovations began during President Jordan's
administration came to fruition during the first year of Dr. Jackson's tenure. At the
time of this appointment, the new President was chairman of the Division of
Natural Sciences and director of the Institutional Self-Study which resulted in reac-
creditation of the College by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in
December, 1971. During that same year the College was accredited by the National
Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). The three engineering
technology programs civil, electronics, and mechanical were accredited by the
Engineers' Council for Professional Developments in 1973. President Jackson, the
second 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 as acting president was chairman of the
Division of Technical Sciences.

In September, 1979, due to the desegregation plan mandated by the Department
of Health, Education and Welfare, the faculty and students in the Division of
Education at Savannah State College were transferred to Armstrong State College
and Savannah State College received the faculty and students in the Division of
Business from Armstrong State College in a historic program swap. This program
swap resulted in the creation of a new School of Business at Savannah State College
during the 1979-80 academic year.

Additionally, on April 13, 1980 the Board of Regents of the University System of
Georgia approved a new Administrative organization plan for Savannah State
College for 1980-81. Under the plan Savannah State was reorganized into three
schools Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Sciences and Technology.
On September 15, 1980, Dr. Wendell G. Rayburn became the eighth president of

Savannah State College. Dr. Rayburn served the college for eight years. Under his
leadership on the undergraduate level academic programs in social work were initi-
ated and received professional accreditation. At the graduate level, a master's
degree in public administration was begun. Dr. Rayburn was also responsible for a

Building Facilities

and

Landscape Development

The campus, comprising 165 acres, presents a unique setting of natural beauty.
Among its 38 buildings are two that were constructed during the administration of
Major Richard R. Wright: Hill Hall (1901), and Hammond Hall (1915), both of which
have been extensively renovated in recent years. Hill Hall and Hammond Hall are
currently unoccupied.

W.K. Payne Hall, a two-story air conditioned building, is a main classroom build-
ing. In addition to its fifteen classrooms, it also provides office space for thirty-two
instructors (including four departmental offices), data processing facilities, a secre-
tarial center, a language laboratory, a reading clinic and the Learning Resource
Center. Most of the classes in the English, Social Sciences, and Modern Languages
are held in this facility.

Other classroom buildings, and the Departments that each houses are Herty Hall
(1937) -- Mathematics and Physics; Hubert Technical Sciences Center (1960)
Engineering Technology and Chemistry; Morgan Hall (1936) and Morgan Hall
Annex: J. F. Kennedy Fine Arts Center (1967) - Fine Arts; The Griffith-Drew Center
for the Natural Sciences (1971) - Biology; Wiley-Wilcox Gymnasium Complex
Phv.-ical Education, the Marine Biology Building (1989); and, the Howard Jordan
Business Building (1989) - School of Business.

Completing the physical facilities of the campus are those buildings used for
activities that are auxiliary to the instructional process, those used as student resi-
dence halls and those used to house the maintenance and operational staffs. The
Martin Luther King-Varnetta Frazier Student Center Complex (1969) houses the
Student Counseling Offices, the College Dining Hall, the Post Office, and Bookstore.

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 Hall. This building houses the
Developmental Studies Department. The third new building is the NROTC Armory
located adjacent to the stadium. A portion of this building serves as an athletic field
house. In 1982 the President's House and a Health Services Building were completed.

Residence halls include - Smith-Bowen for women (1971) and Melvin Bostick
Men's Residence Hall (1972). Both dormitories are air-conditioned, as is A. E.
Peacock Hall (1967) and Lockette Hall (1965). Peacock Hall accommodates 180 men
and Lockette Hall, 180 women. Lester Hall (1985), a dormitory for young women,
completes the list of residence halls now used for housing accommodations. Camilla
Hall (1938) has been converted to married student housing. Wright Hall (1951), a
former male dormitory, is being utilized as a female dormitory. The studio for FM
radio station WHCJ is also in Wright Hall.

The new addition to the Student Center, provides office space for the Vice
President for Student Affairs, a President's private dining room, snack bar with
seating capacity of 134, a theater with seating capacity of 538, and game room facilities.

Most of the plant operations are directed from Medgar Evers Plant Operations
Complex, a modern facility that houses the main offices for Plant Operations and the
College Warehouse. Housekeeping services are now housed in the former field house.

Georgia institutions. System institutions generally open their programs to all
undergraduate students with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5; however, certain
programs may require a higher GPA and completion of prerequisites. Students in
the University System of Georgia who are eligible for financial aid may use that aid
toward study abroad. A limited number of study abroad scholarships is available.
For further information contact the OIP at 356-2168, or in Room 114 of Powell Hall.

provides the opportunity to gain insights into the appreciation for the cultures and
institutions of other peoples, facilitates the development of relevant career skills.
and contributes to personal maturity, a sense of independence, self-knowledge, and
confidence.

COASTAL GEORGIA CENTER FOR
CONTINUING EDUCATION

The Coastal Georgia Center for Continuing Education was established in 1979 to
combine t ho resources of both Armstrong State College's Community Service
Division and Savannah State College's Extended Services Area. Utilizing a Down-
town Center located at 305 Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, the Dean of the
Coastal Georgia Center for Continuing Education operates a unified Continuing
Education program dedicated to serving the people of Savannah, Chatham County,
the State of Georgia and, for some programs, beyond those boundaries.

A wide variety of programs are offered at Armstrong State College, Savannah
State College, the Downtown Center, and when it is appropriate, at job sites,
schools, community centers and other locations in Savannah. Instructors are drawn
from the faculties of both institutions, from qualified experts in the Savannah com-
munity and from consultants throughout the region.

On the Savannah State campus, the Extended Services Area is responsible for
the coordination of all community service/continuing education activities. Since
these activities are viewed as a college-wide function, responsibility for program
development is shared with the various academic units on campus. The major com-
munity service/continuing education components of the College are the short-
course/conference program, and the Correspondence Study Office.

Short-Course/Conference Program

The Short-course/conference Program offers non-credit courses; conferences, sem-
inars and workshops for the general public. Formal admission to the college is not
required.

Classes meet once or twice weekly during the College's regular quarter. The
length of a class meeting ranges from one hour to two hours. No A, B, C, grades are
given, but the S or U mark is given denoting a participant's satisfactory or unsatis-
factory completion of a course. Continuing Education Units are awarded partici-
pants who successfully complete a course, and a record of enrollments maintained.

Correspondence Study

The Correspondence Program In addition to credit instruction on the campus,
Savannah State College is authorized to offer correspondence courses. Such courses
have become recognized sources for public education, reflecting a sense of obligation
to those who cannot undertake resident instruction and to those who do not require
instruction for personal growth and enrichment.

Students registering in correspondence study should meet the minimal require-
ments of graduation from an accredited high school.

College correspondence study is designed as an auxiliary to regular campus class-
room and study materials and instructors are usually the same as those for resident
instruction.

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 correspondence.

2) Not more than 50% of the required courses in the major or minor may be
completed in correspondence.

3) Courses may not be taken in correspondence study to remove deficiencies
earned in residence.

4) 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 school in which the student is
enrolled and present this statement to the Correspondence Study Office.

Information concerning courses, credit, fees, examinations, textbooks, etc., may be
obtained from: Correspondence Study Office, Savannah State College, Savannah,

unless the officials of the institution last attended recommended the appli-
cant's admission.

5. Transfer applicants will be considered for admission to Savannah State
College if on all work attempted at other institutions, their academic perfor-
mance as shown by their grade-point-average is equivalent to the minimum
standard required by Savannah State College students by comparable stand-
ing. (See Academic Probation and Suspension Section for appropriate GPA
and required credit hours).

6. Credit will be given for transfer work in which students received a grade of
"C" or above. Credit will also be given for transfer work in which the students

basically of secondary school level.

7. Transfer applicants must pay a $10.00 non-refundable application fee.

8. The amount of credit that Savannah State College will allow for work done in
other institutions within a given period of time may not exceed the normal
amount of credit that could have been earned at Savannah State during that time.

9. Credit allowed for extension, correspondence, CLEP examination or military
service schools shall not exceed a total of 45 quarter hours.

10. A transfer student who has earned excessive credit in freshman and sopho-
more courses may not be granted credit in excess of 101 quarter hours below
the junior class level.

accredited at the collegiate level by their appropriate regional accrediting
agency. Provisions may be considered when an institution appeals the policy.
In certain areas students may be required to validate credits by examination.
In computing cumulative grade averages, only the work attempted at
Savannah State will be considered.

12. If the Core Curriculum requirements in Area I (Humanities), Area II (Sciences),
and/or Area III (Social Sciences) have been completed in a University System

or Georgia institution, each completed area will be accepted as having met
the respective area requirement at Savannah State College.

accredited.

14. Students who complete course work and exit an area of Learning Support
shall not be required to re-enter that area of Learning Support upon transfer
to another University System Institution.

LEARNING SUPPORT
TRANSFER STUDENT POLICY

Conditionally admitted transfer students must meet the same regular admission
requirements as individuals admitted to the College for the first time. A complete
record of the student's past remedial course work and CPE scores must be on file in
the Savannah State College Admission's Office before the student can be admitted.

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.

Transient status means that students are admitted for only a specified period of
time, normally for one quarter. Applicants for transient status must file a regular
application form and submit a statement from their dean or registrar that they are
in good standing and have permission to take specific courses at Savannah State
College. An application fee ($10.00) is also required. Since transient students are
not admitted as regular students, transcripts of college work completed elsewhere
are not usually required of such applicants. Transient students who wish to remain
at Savannah State College must submit each quarter additional statements from
their dean or registrar.

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE STUDENTS
TRANSIENT AT ANOTHER COLLEGE

Savannah State College students who wish to take course work at another college
with the intent to apply the courses to their academic record at Savannah State
College may do so in accordance with regulations for transient status at another col-
lege. The student must meet the requirements stipulated by the other college, and,

Special Admission Categories
GED

An applicant who is not a high school graduate may be considered for admission
based upon completion of the General Educational Development Examination
(GED) with a score that satisfies the minimum requirement of the State of Georgia
(standard score average 45). A score report must be submitted directly to the College
from the GED testing center where the student took the test, or by DANTES (2318
South Park Street, Madison, Wisconsin, 53713) if the student took the test through
the United States Armed Forces Institute while in military service. If the appli-
cant's high school class graduated in the Spring of 1988, or later, then all College
Preparatory Curriculum (CPC) requirements must be met. The only exception to
this requirement will be those applicants pursuing associate of science or associate
of applied science degrees. These individuals are exempt from the CPC requirements.
The total score must be 225 or higher. No score lower than 35 will be acceptable in
any area, and the composite or average score must be 45 or more.

Delayed Admission

Applicants who have not attended high school or college within the previous five
years, and have earned fewer than 20 transferable quarter hours of college credit,
are not required to take the SAT or ACT admissions test. However, these applicants
will be required to take the Collegiate Placement Examination and complete any
Learning Support requirements. Students admitted under this category must com-
plete 30 hours of college credit with a minimum 2.0 grade point average in order to
be granted regular admission status.

Non-Degree Student

Applicants who have never attended college and who wish to pursue courses for
personal enrichment for advancement may be admitted as non-degree students by
permission of the Director of Admissions. To be considered an applicant must pos-
sess a high school diploma or GED certificate and have been out of high school for a
period of five or more years.

The SAT/ACT is not required, but students must take the Collegiate Placement
Examination. Applicants admitted as non-degree students may earn a maximum of
twenty quarter credit hours before being required to fulfill any Learning Support
requirements. To enter a degree program, fulfillment of all beginning freshman
requirements is necessary. A non-degree student must satisfy all prerequisites
before enrolling in a course.

Persons 62 Years of Age or Older

Persons who are 62 years of age, or older, may enroll as regular students in credit
courses on a "space available" basis without payment of fees, except for supplies,

enable the Admissions Office to determine eligibility. They must meet all admission
and degree requirements.

SPECIAL STUDENTS

All students in classifications not otherwise covered in the College's admissions
categories shall be required to meet all requirements prescribed for admission to under-
graduate or graduate programs of work and to meet any additional requirements
that may be prescribed by the College. Any exceptions to the admission policies may be
made only with written approval of the Chancellor of the University System of Georgia.

Readmission

Students who for any reason have remained out of the College for two or more
quarters, must apply for readmission by the established quarterly application dead-
line. Students who have attended other colleges in the interim must submit official
transcripts of all colleges attended since they last attended Savannah State College.
Former Savannah State College students do not pay an application processing fee
when they apply for readmission.

Former students who leave the College prior to completing Learning Support
requirements and/or removing College Preparatory Curriculum deficiencies will not
be allowed to return to the College as transient students from another college with-
out a transcript from that school. Students who are readmitted after an absence from

ADMISSION AS AUDITORS

Students who submit evidence of graduation from an accredited high school or a GED
certificate which satisfies the minimum score requirement of the State of Georgia
may register as auditors. Students registered as auditors shall be required to pay
the regular fees for enrollment and shall be prohibited from receiving credit at any
later time for course work that they completed as auditors. Prior to registration,
students must complete Auditor Oral Course Planning Registration Forms.

Applicants wishing to audit a course are exempt from the necessity of taking the
SAT/ACT or the Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE). Students may not transfer
from audit to credit status, nor from credit to audit status. Students who enroll only to
audit courses are approved for one quarter at a time and must be approved each quarter.

Faculty members of Savannah State College may attend classes offered by other

DEFINITION OF LEGAL RESIDENCE

REGENTS' POLICIES GOVERNING THE CLASSIFICATION
OF STUDENTS FOR TUITION PURPOSES

The following policies have been adopted by the Board of Regents for the pur-
poses of determining the tuition status of students:

1. (a) If a person is 18 years of age or older, he or she may register as an in-state

student only upon a showing that he or she has been a legal resident of
Georgia for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the
date of registration.

(b) No emancipated minor or other person 18 years of age or older shall be
deemed to have gained or acquired in-state status for tuition purposes
while attending any educational institution in this state, in the absence of
a clear demonstration that he or she has in fact established legal resi-
dence in this state.

2. If a person is under 18 years of age, he or she may register as an in-state stu-
dent only upon a showing that his or her supporting parent or guardian has
been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least twelve months imme-
diately preceding the date of registration.

3. If a parent or legal guardian of a minor changes his or her legal residence to
another state following a period of legal residence in Georgia, the minor may

continue to take courses for a period of twelve consecutive months on the pay-
ment of instate tuition. After the expiration of the twelve-month period, the
student may continue his or her registration only upon the payment of fees at
the out-of-state rate.

4. In the event that a legal resident of Georgia is appointed as guardian of a
nonresident minor, such minor will not be permitted to register as an in-state
student until the expiration of one year from the date of court appointment,
and then only upon a proper showing that such appointment was not made to
avoid payment of the out-of-state fees.

5. Aliens shall be classified as nonresident students; provided, however, that an
alien who is living in this country under an immigration document permitting
indefinite or permanent residence shall have the same privilege of qualifying
for in-state tuition as a citizen of the United States.

6. Waivers: An institution may waive out-of-state tuition for:

(a) nonresident students who are financially dependent upon a parent, parents,
or spouse who has been a legal resident of Georgia for at least twelve con-
secutive months immediately preceding the date of registration; provided,
however, that such financial dependence shall have existed for at least
twelve consecutive months immediately preceding the date of registration.

(b) international students, selected by the institutional president or his
authorized representative, provided that the number of such waivers in
effect does not exceed one percent of the equivalent full-time students
enrolled at the institution in the fall quarter immediately preceding the
quarter for which the out-of-state tuition is to be waived.

(d) medical and dental residents and medical and dental interns at the
Medical College of Georgia.

(e) full-time teachers in the public schools of Georgia or in the programs of
the State Board of Technical and Adult Education and their dependent
children. Teachers employed full-time on military bases in Georgia shall
also qualify for this waiver.

(0 career consular officers and their dependents who are citizens of the for-
eign nation which their consular office represents, and who are stationed
and living in Georgia under orders of their respective governments. This
waiver shall apply only to those consular officers whose nations operate on
the principle of educational reciprocity with the United States.

(g) military personnel and their dependents stationed in Georgia and on
active duty unless such military personnel are assigned as students to
System institutions for educational purposes.

(h) selected graduate students at University-level institutions.

(i) students who are legal residents of out-of-state counties bordering on
Georgia counties in which an institution of the university System is
located and who are enrolled in said institution.

ADDITIONAL RESIDENT INFORMATION

Individuals who enter Savannah State College as nonresident students but who
wish later to qualify as legal residents must submit a Petition for Georgia Residence
Classification, which can be obtained in the Admission's Office. A student's residence
status is not changed automatically, and the burden of proof that the student
qualifies as a legal resident under the regulations of the Board of Regents of the
University System of Georgia rests with the student. Students are responsible for
registering under the proper residence classification. A student classified as nonresident
who believes he or she is entitled to be reclassified as a legal resident may petition
the Registrar for a change in status. To avoid delay and inconvenience at registra-
tion, the petition must be filed no later than 60 working days prior to registration
for the quarter for which the student is petitioning for in-state residence status.

REGENTS STATEMENT OF DISRUPTIVE

BEHAVIOR

The following statement is the policy of the Board of Regents regarding disruptive
behavior in any institution of the University System. The rights, responsibilities and
prohibitions described in this statement are incorporated as a part of these regulations.

The Board of Regents of the University system of Georgia reaffirms its policies to
support fully freedom of expression by each member of the academic community
and to preserve and protect the rights and freedoms of its faculty members to
engage in debate, decision, peaceful and nondisruptive protest and dissent. The fol-
lowing statement relates specifically to the problem described below. It does not
change or in any way infringe upon the Board's existing policies and practices in
support of freedom of expression and action. Rather it is considered necessary to combat
the ultimate effect of irresponsible disruptive and obstructive actions by students
and faculty which tend to destroy academic freedom and the institutional structures
through which it operates.

In recent years a new and serious problem has appeared on many college cam-
puses in the nation. Some students, faculty members, and others have on occasion
engaged in demonstrations, sit-ins, and other activities that have clearly and delib-
erately interfered with the regular orderly operation of the institution concerned.
Typically, these actions have been the physical occupation of a building or campus
area for a protracted period of time or the use of verbal or written obscenities
involving indecent or disorderly conduct.

These actions have gone beyond all heretofore recognized bounds of meetings for
discussions, persuasion, or even protest in that: (1) acquiescence to demands of the
demonstrations is the condition for dispersal, and (2) the reasonable and written
directions of institutional officials to disperse have been clearly ignored. Such activi-
ties thus have become clearly recognizable as an action of force, operating outside
all established channels on the campus, including that of intellectual debate and
persuasion which are at the heart of education.

The Board of Regents is deeply concerned by this problem. Under the Constitution
of the State of Georgia, under all applicable court rulings, and in keeping with the
tradition of higher education in the United States, The Board is ultimately responsi-
ble for the orderly operation of the several institutions of the University System and
the preservations of academic freedom in these institutions. The Board cannot and
will not divest itself of this responsibility.

Of equal or even greater importance, such actions of force as had been described
above destroys the very essence of higher education. This essence is found in the
unhampered freedom to study, investigate, write, speak, and debate on any aspect
or issue of life. This freedom, which reaches its full flowering on college and univer-
sity campuses, is an essential part of American democracy, comparable to the jury
system or the electoral process.

For these reasons and in order to respond directly and specifically to this new
problem the Board of Regents, stipulates that any student, faculty member, admin-
istrator, or employee, acting individually or in concert with others, who clearly
obstructs or disrupts, or attempts to obstruct or disrupt any teaching research,
administrative, disciplinary or public service activity, or any other activity autho-
rized to be discharged or held on any campus of the University System of Georgia is
considered by the Board to have committed an act of gross irresponsibility and shall

be subject to disciplinary procedures, possibly resulting in dismissal or termination
of employment.

The Board reaffirms its belief that all segments of the academic community are
under a strong obligation and have a mutual responsibility to protect the campus
community from disorderly, disruptive, or obstructive actions which interfere with
academic pursuits or teaching learning and other campus activities.

Student Affairs

The Vice-President for Student Affairs is responsible to the President for the over-
all administration of Student Affairs. Staff members share with the Vice-President
the administration of the Student Affairs program. In the broadest sense, the Student
Affairs program is concerned first with the life of the student outside the classroom.

Career Services & Cooperative Education

The College Placement Service assists all students and graduates of Savannah
State College in finding full-time employment or graduate school opportunities.
This office attempts to maintain contact with corporations, agencies, and graduate
schools which will benefit the students of Savannah State College. The Office of
Placement is located in King-Frazier Complex, Room 246. Throughout the year, the
Director of Placement offers several workshops to meet students' pre-employment
needs. Workshops cover topics such as interviewing techniques, resume prepara-
tion, dressing for success, etc.

Cooperative Education at Savannah State College is a program organized to pro-
vide students with (1) professional training in their major areas of study, (2) money
to help defray college expenses, (3) and general work experience to enhance a more
competitive background upon graduation. The office is located in King-Frazier
Complex, Room 243.

The program allows a student to alternate four (4) academic quarters in a profes-
sionalized business setting with four (4) quarters of academic study on campus. The
co-op student does this during his sophomore and junior years and spends the entire
freshman and senior years on campus.

Further encouragement of the program is evidenced by the college's granting of
five (5) course hours per quarter for co-op participation.

Counseling Service

The Counseling Center offers professional counseling services to all prospective
and regularly enrolled students at Savannah State College. The services offered
include academic, personal, social and career counseling as well as array of test
information and interpretive data. These services can be provided in an individual
or group setting.

The professional staff consists of the director, and staff counselors. The staff oper-
ates with the basic understanding that there are some student oriented concerns
that extend beyond the scope of their personal resources or areas of expertise.
Referral made by the staff to another campus program or office, or community agency
are made only with the approval of the counselee involved in the given situation.

The center is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. -5:30 p.m. Counseling is
confidential and free to students. The center is located on the second floor of the
King-Frazier Student Center, Room 233.

DISABLED STUDENT SERVICES

Savannah State College subscribes to a policy of providing equal access to dis-
abled students for all academic programs and support services. The College is com-
mitted to having disabled students in barrier-free environments which are designed
to enhance learning opportunities. The College also has a wide array of support ser-
vices which help to make the college experience challenging and rewarding. The fac-
ulty and staff are easily accessible to all students. Savannah State College
welcomes your application for admissions.

Students can obtain information about the existence and location of services,
activities, and facilities that are accessable to and usable by persons with disabili-
ties from the Office of Student Affairs, King-Frazier Complex, Room 247.

Health Services

The College health services are maintained to improve and safeguard the health
of students. These services are under the direct supervision of the school physician
and school nurse. Medical examinations, medical care, and health consultations are
provided for all students. Harris Health Center, a modern, eighteen-bed building, is
provided for students who require treatment.

Students who are too ill to attend class must report to the Health Services
Building or obtain the services of a private physician. Under no circumstances will
students be permitted to remain in the College residence halls. Any illness in the
residence halls should be reported to the Health Service immediately.

Armstrong State College students who are in residence halls on the Savannah
State College campus are required to pay the health fee.

Each student is directly responsible for his hospital or emergency room fees. The
College health fee does not include these services.

Employees will be treated at the Infirmary for emergencies only.

Residence Halls

There are six residence halls and one apartment building operated for students at
Savannah State. These structures offer a cross section of facilities, services, and
programs. Fees and qualifications for residency in the apartment building are dif-
ferent from those for the dormitories. Assignment to living areas is based on sex and
classification. Additional criteria are used for apartment residency. Expectant moth-
ers are not allowed to remain in dormitories.

Residence on campus complements classroom instruction. Education, as well as
recreational and cultural, programs are available in the residence halls. There are
certain regulations in place to insure that the living/learning processes of students
are not unduly interfered with. Such regulations can be found in this catalog and
publications distributed by the Office of Student Affairs and the Office of Housing.

The policies of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia
require that all campus residential units for students be filled before stu-
dents are permitted to live off-campus. All students below the senior year (135
quarter hours) are required to live on campus, unless a condition below exists:

a. A student is married and furnishes proof thereof;

b. A student's parents are residents of Chatham County;

c. A student commutes from a neighboring county that is within a 50 mile
radius of the College;

d. A student is a legal resident of Chatham County;

e. A student (handicapped, expectant mother) with special housing needs.

All students are required to apply for housing at the beginning of the academic year,
summer school, and any quarter that is proceeded by a break in continued residence.
Students are expected to formally clear housing at the end of Spring and Summer
Quarters, and any other quarter if they do not plan to return or graduate. Residence
Hall directors will sign the appropriate clearance form for students.

Room assignments are made for the academic year. In the event that an occupant
of a double room moves out, the remaining student will be assigned another room-
mate, or be assigned to another room.

Students who are required to live in residence halls are also required to purchase
a meal plan. Students who have diets prescribed by physicians may be exempted, if
the College Cafeteria is unable to prepare the diet meals. Hot plates and other cook-
ing devices are prohibited. If found in rooms, they will be confiscated and the owner
charged a penalty fee of $25.00.

CAMPUS RESIDENCY POLICY

Freshmen students from outside the Chatham County area are expected to reside
in the residence halls of Savannah State College at a rate of $415.00 per quarter
and to take the three-meal plan at the rate of $485.00 per quarter. Those who elect
to live in the residence halls must purchase at least the two-meal plan.

ROOM DEPOSIT

Application for campus housing is to be submitted after the student receives an
official acceptance to Savannah State College. Entering students and continuing
students who live in the college residence hall facilities are required to submit a

room deposit with their requests for room assignment. This will serve as a
damage/room clearance deposit to be refunded upon withdrawal from the College or
at the end oi the year upon proper clearance with the Housing Office and the
absence of any damage to the room. An applicant who, after acceptance for admis-
sion, decided not to enroll at Savannah State College may be refunded the $100.00
deposit by requesting a refund in writing as follows:

Term Refund Due

Fall Quarter 1995 July 31, 1995

Winter Quarter 1996 December 1, 1995

Spring Quarter 1996 March 1, 1996

Contact the Housing Office for further information.

APARTMENTS

On-campus apartments are available for leasing. Students must meet certain cri-
teria to determine eligibility for first-time and continued residency. For further
details, contact the Housing Office.

Student Conduct

Each student enrolled at Savannah State College is expected at all times to exem-
plify 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.

Violations of the Student Conduct Code

While the intentional commission of an act is an important consideration in deter-
mining guilt or innocence and appropriate sanction, students are also responsible in
some cases for their actions due to negligence.

The following actions constitute some examples of misconduct for which students
may receive disciplinary action, including suspension and dismissal when commit-
ted on or away from college property (for additional details, see the Savannah State
College Student Conduct Code, 1991):

I. Academic Irregularity

II. Possession of Drugs and Alcoholic Beverages

III. Damage to Public and Private Property

IV. Disorderly Assembly
V. Disorderly Conduct

VI. Falsification of Records
VII. Misuse of Student Identification Cards
VIII. Theft
IX. Gambling

X. Unauthorized Entry or Use of College Facilities
XI. Possessing Explosives

XII. Violation of Dormitory Visitation Rules and Regulations

XIII. Disregard of Fire Safety Regulations

XIV. Possession of Weapons
XV. Hazing and/or Harassment

XVI. Joint Responsibility for Violations
XVII. Violation of Outside Law

Disciplinary Procedures

The Administrative Interview Process:

1. The Filing of a Charge

The accuser files a written charge with the Office of the Vice-President for
Student Affairs. Any person may refer a student suspected of violating the
Student Conduct Code.

2. Investigation of the Charge

Upon receipt of the charge, the Vice-President's designee conducts an infor-
mal investigation to determine whether to drop the case, or send a letter of
notification to the accused student.

3. Administrative Interview

If a formal charge is made to the accused, either by certified letter or in per-
son, the Vice-President's designee will instruct the accused to contact the
Office for Student Affairs to arrange an administrative interview to discuss
the complaint. In addition to the specific charge, attached to the interview
letter will be copies of all documents pertinent to the alleged incident that are
known at that time. The Vice-President's designee will request a meeting
with other necessary relevant parties on an individual basis. However, the
Vice-President's designee or accused student may ask to have more than one
relevant party present at the interview. The purposes of the administrative
interview are twofold. First, to determine whether probable cause exists to
believe the accused may have committed the charged offenses. Second, if
probable to have the case heard by the Vice-President's designee or the
College Discipline Committee.

The Vice-President for Student Affairs will be responsible for notifying all persons
of the time and place when they are to appear before the Committee. The Vice-
President will also notify students about the specific charges against them.

Rights of the Accused Student During Hearings

Accused students shall be advised that they have:

a. The right to a non-legal advisor of their choice. (An attorney may be present
only when it appears that the hearing also relates to a potential, or actual,
criminal charge against the accused.)

b. The right to question the accuser(s).

c. The right to present evidence.

d. The right to call witnesses.

0. The right to remain silent and have no inference of guilt drawn from such silence.

f. The right of cross examination.

g. The right to appeal an adverse decision to the President.

h. The right to attend classes and required college functions until a hearing is
held and a decision is rendered against the accused by the Vice-President or
Discipline Committee. The accused may remain at the institution pending an
appeal to the President, if his or her presence is judged not to be a clear and
present danger to the normal operation of the College. If the President upholds
the suspension or expulsion, the student must depart, notwithstanding the
students subsequent application for review to the Board of Regents.

The Discipline Committee

The Discipline Committee (comprised of faculty, staff, and students) adjudicates
all cases except those where the student elects to have his or her case decided by the
Vice-President for Student Affairs' designee. If the accused chooses a hearing by the
Discipline Committee, the Vice-President shall select a member of the staff to pre-
sent the case on behalf of the person bringing charges, including cases where the
Office For Student Affairs files the charges.

Basis for Review (Appeals to the President)

All appeals to the President must be made in writing within seven calendar days
of the original decision. The original decision is final on the day it is rendered by the
Vice-President for Student Affairs and Discipline Committee. The filing of an appeal
to the President will not postpone punishments imposed there under, by the Vice-
President for Student Affairs or the Discipline Committee.

The accused may appeal to the President from a decision of the Vice-President for
Student Affairs or the Discipline Committee on the following grounds. Additional
grounds may be asserted by the appellant, as appropriate.

1. Failure to follow procedures, including failure to observe the rights of the
accused, but only if such failure actually resulted in preventing the accused
from adequately defending against the charge.

2. The findings are not supported by substantial evidence, or the recommenda-
tions are not supported by the findings.

3. Demonstrated bias on the part of one or more members of the adjudicating
body. "Bias" requires more than merely knowing the accused or knowing
something about the case. Disqualification occurs only where it can be estab-
lished that the Vice-President or a Discipline Committee member was inca-
pable of rendering a fair decision.

4. Whether the sanction imposed by the adjudicating body was excessive, in
light of the nature of the offense and the student's disciplinary record.

Article IX Appeal to Board of Regents

Should the student be dissatisfied with the President's decision, he or she has the
right to appeal in writing to the Board of Regents. The appeal to the Board shall be
submitted in writing to the Executive Secretary of the Board within twenty calendar

days after the President's decision and shall cite all the reasons for dissatisfaction
with the previous decision.

Student Orientation

The orientation program is under the supervision of the Comprehensive
Counseling Center. It is designed to assist new students in becoming acquainted
with other students, with college regulations, with routine procedures, with campus
traditions, with the opportunities offered for training, and with specialized voca-
tional guidance. This program, concentrates on all freshmen and new students
entering the College. Orientation sessions last for two days with one overnight stay.
In addition to placement testing, academic advisement and preregistration, activi-
ties typically include a dance, dinner cabaret, breakfast sing-out contest, get
acquainted luncheon, and a picnic on the campus Circle. New students who are over
the age of twenty-five have the option of attending a mini-orientation which is gen-
erally held in mid-September.

Follow-up courses dealing with the psychology of human relationships, required
of freshmen and transfer students, are 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. These courses are designated as follows:

HAS 100. Strategies for Success in College. (3-0-3)

BAD 105. Introduction to the College, to Business & Career Development. (5-0-5)

GED 101. Student Orientation (3-0-3)

transportation, storage, furnishing, or sale of any narcotic or dangerous drug con-
trolled by federal or Georgia law is prohibited. Violators are subject to arrest and prose-
cution by College and/or local, state, and federal courts. It is against College rules
and regulations for any student to possess, use, or store weapons such as knives,
guns, blackjacks, etc. Persons found in possession of weapons will be subject to disci-

Federal Financial Aid Programs
(Title IV Programs)

The Office of Financial Aid administers the following major U.S. Department of
Education student financial aid programs: Federal Pell Grants, Federal Direct Loans,
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG), Federal Work-
Study (FWS). Federal Perkins Loans. State of Georgia programs administered by the
Office of Financial Aid include the Student Incentive Grant Program and the HOPE
Scholarship Program. It is a basic principle that each student shall be helped as an
individual with consideration of his/her own unique need, situation, and circumstances.

Eligibility requirements include the following: have financial need, have a high
school diploma or a GED certificate, be a U.S. citizen or eligible noncitizen, have a
valid Social Security Number, make satisfactory academic progress, register with
Selective Service if applicable, not in default on a student loan, and do not owe a
refund on a pervious federal student grant.

Federal Pell Grant

A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are
only awarded to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's or pro-
fessional degree. Pell Grants provide a foundation of financial aid to which other aid
may be added. Savannah State College Financial Aid Office requires that a student
applies for the Federal Pell Grant.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants

A Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) is for under-
graduates with exceptional financial need, that is, students with the lowest
Expected Family Contributions (EFCs), and gives priority to students who receive
Federal Pell Grants. The average award may range from $300 to $1500 a year. SEOG
does not have to be paid back.

Federal Work-Study

The Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program provides jobs for undergraduate and
graduate students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help pay
education expenses. The program encourages community service work and work
related to your course of study.

Federal Perkins Loan

A Federal Perkins Loan is a low-interest (5 percent) loan for both undergraduate
and graduate students with exceptional financial need. Federal Perkins Loans are made
through Savannah State College's Office of Financial Aid. You must repay this loan.

Federal Direct Loan

Low-interest loans for students and parents (PLUS) are available through the
Federal Direct Student Loan (Direct Loan) Program. Under the Direct Loan

Program, the federal government makes loans directly to students and parents
through schools.

Savannah State College began participating in the Direct Loan Program during
the 1995-96 academic year. Direct Loans are either subsidized or unsubsidized. A
subsidized one is awarded on the basis of financial need. If you qualify for a subsi-
dized loan, the federal government pays interest on the loan until you begin repay-
ment and during authorized periods of deferment thereafter.

An unsubsidized loan is not awarded on the basis of need. If you qualify for an
unsubsidized loan, you will be charged interest from the time the loan is disbursed
until it is paid in full. You can receive a subsidized and an unsubsidized loan for the
same enrollment period as long as they are from the same program.

Student Incentive Grant

The Student Incentive Grant (SIG) is a federal and state grant program for
Georgia citizens. SIG awards at Savannah State College range from $300 to $900 a
year. Awards are not made for summer term.

HOPE Scholarship Program (Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally)

The HOPE Scholarship provides funds for tuition not covered by the Federal Pell
Grant or other Federal grant programs. To be eligible to receive a HOPE scholar-
ship to cover your tuition cost to seek a degree at Savannah State College, you
must: have graduated from high school with a grade point average of 3.0 and con-
tinue to maintain a 3.0 in college, have parental adjusted gross income of less than
$100,000, apply for a Federal Pell Grant, meet Georgia residency requirements, be
U.S. citizen, permanent resident alien, meet selective service registration require-
ments, not be in default or owe on Federal or State financial aid, and maintain
Satisfactory Academic Progress.

The HOPE program is funded by the Georgia Lottery for Education and is admin-
istrated by the Georgia Student Finance Commission.

Savannah State College Student Employment Program helps student locate part-
time employment with the various departments on campus. There are no eligibility

STANDARDS OF SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC

PROGRESS FOR STUDENTS RECEIVING

FEDERAL STUDENT AID FUNDS

(Title IV)

Savannah State College is required by the U.S. Department of Education to
establish minimum standards of satisfactory academic progress. Satisfactory acade-
mic progress means that the student is proceeding in a positive manner toward ful-
filling degrees requirements. The Satisfactory Academic Progress policy includes
three major components: quality, quantity, and time frame.

I. Quality and Quantity

Quality and quantity are measured by the Registrar at the end of each
quarter in accordance with the Academic Probation and Suspension policy
found in the Savannah State College General Catalog.

A. Undergraduate Students

Students will be dismissed for one quarter after two successive quarters on
probation if their cumulative average is below that required for a desig-
nated number of total hours attempted as follows:

Stages of Progress Required Minimum

Quarter Hours Cumulative Average
0-45 1.5

46-90 1.7

91 and above 2.0

Students will be considered enrolled for any quarter in which they receive a
grade or grades other than W. Students will not be subject to dismissal for
academic reasons if they meet the standards listed above at the end of two
quarters of probation or if they carry a minimum of 10 hours and maintain
a quarterly average of 2.0. Transfer credits are not included in the computa-
tion of the cumulative grade average. Total hours attempted consist of all
hours attempted at Savannah State (including all hours with grades of F
and WF), plus all hours transferred to SSC. Grades of I and W are not
included in hours attempted.

Any student who fails all of his classes during a given quarter, or who stops
attending all classes without an approved withdrawal from the College, will
not be permitted to enroll for the succeeding quarter.

Upon dismissal for academic reasons, a student must apply for readmission.
Readmission may be granted at the discretion of the Committee on
Admission.

Financial aid will be reinstated when a student who is allowed to re-enroll
after an academic dismissal meets the following criteria in order to receive
aid during subsequent quarters of enrollment:

a) enroll one quarter at their own expense; and

b) meet the conditions set by the school or college; and

c) meet the criteria in the satisfactory academic progress time table.

B. Graduate Students

Students may be dismissed by their department at the end of the quarter if
they have not made sufficient academic progress to warrant continuance
study. Termination of students will follow policies and procedures adopted
by the department.

Students with a cumulative graduate course average of below 3.0 for two
consecutive quarters are placed on academic probation by the Graduate
school. Then they must make a 3.0 or higher quarterly graduate average
each succeeding quarter that their overall cumulative graduate average is
below 3.0. These students are no longer on probation when their cumulative
graduate average is 3.0 or above. If they make below a 3.0 quarterly aver-
age while on probation, they are dismissed.

C. Learning Support Students

Students who do not complete the requirements for each Learning Support
area after a maximum of four (4) attempts per area will be suspended from
the institution for one quarter.

A student who is readmitted will be allowed one attempt per area to satisfy
and Learning Support deficiencies, and shall take no other work simulta-
neously without authorization from the Director of the Division of
Learning Support. Readmitted students not exiting the Division of
Learning Support within one attempt per area will then be suspended...

Only the first 45 hours attempted in the Learning Support Program will
be allowed in determining federally funded financial aid eligibility.

II. Time Frame

Student financial aid recipients must show measurable progress toward degree
completion by earning a required minimum number of hours for the total number of
quarters enrolled. The normal academic work load during an academic year is 15
hours per quarter for undergraduates and 10 hours per quarter for graduate stu-
dents. Time frame is measured by the office of Student Financial Aid using the fol-
lowing satisfactory academic progress time table:

X umber of

Required Minimum

m ber of

Required Minimum

Hours Earned

105

117

130

143

156

169

182

195

In addition to the previously stated standards, student financial aid recipients
must comply with a given time frame in completing degree requirements.
Undergraduate students will be given a time frame of 18 quarters and graduate stu-
dents will be given a time frame of 9 quarters to complete degrees requirements.

If you received Federal student aid for the first time on or after July 1, 1987
and you are enrolled in a program that's longer than two years, the following
definition of satisfactory progress also applies to you: You must be maintaining a
"C" average by the end of your second academic year of study. You must continue to
maintain satisfactory academic progress for the rest of your course of study.

III. Appeal of Financial Aid Suspension

A. A student who is suspended from aid may appeal to the Student Financial
Aid Committee using a prescribed form on which the student offers reasons
why he did not achieve minimum academic requirements and why his aid
should not be terminated.

B. The Student Financial Aid Committee will review the appeal and determine
whether or not the suspension was justified. The student will be notified in
writing of the decision.

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.

Academic Deans provide general direction to the advising program, with depart-
ment heads coordinating activities within their respective areas and assigning advi-
sors to regularly admitted students who have declared a major. If a student is
admitted as "Provisional" student, I.E., with a deficiency in reading, writing, or
mathematics, the student is advised by the faculty of the Division of Learning
Support as to course load, Learning Support regulations, and College regula-
tions. This advisement continues until the student successfully exits the Learning
Support program, at which time he/she is referred to the Dean of the School in
which his/her chosen field resides and is assigned a faculty advisor in the student's
major area by the respective Dean. Students who remain as undecided majors after
exiting the Learning Support program will continue to be advised by the Division
of Learning Support until they declare a major. All other undecided majors are
assigned by the Registrar to one of the three Academic Deans in such a way that
each Dean will have an equal number of undecided major advises. The Academic
Deans will assign undecided major advises to respective faculty by equalizing the
teaching, and faculty/student contact load of each such faculty member. Students
will continue to be advised in this manner until they select a field of study.

Each student is required to plan his or her academic program with the advisor's
assistance, and to obtain the advisor's approval of his schedule of courses each
Quarter. Each advisor has the responsibility of counseling advises about the appro-
priateness of the academic program they have selected as well as the appropriate-
ness of the schedules of courses selected by the advisee to the timely completion of
that program. In addition, the advisor has the responsibility of monitoring the acad-
emic progress of advises, and so 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, maintaining a continually updated record
of courses taken and grades received. The advisor will also assist advisees in com-
pleting 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.

CLASSIFICATION

Classification of Students

Students are classified on the basis of earned academic quarter hours as follows:

Freshman - fewer than 45 quarter hours

Sophomore - 45 through 89 quarter hours

Junior - 90 through 134 quarter hours

Senior - 135 or more quarter hours

Graduate - student who has been formally admitted to graduate study

The classification under which a student registers at the beginning of any quarter
will continue through the quarter.

tfti

College Testing Program

Savannah State College is a national testing center. Several tests are required at
the college and some are optional.

Tests administered at the college are:

Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT), Law School Admission Test
(LSAT). Graduate Record Examination (GRE), Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT),
National Teacher Examination (NTE), College Level Examination Program
(CLEP)

CLASS ATTENDANCE

Savannah State College endeavors to provide optimum conditions for student
learning. Class attendance is, therefore, required of students to ensure they will be
exposed to the many classes, laboratories and related experiences that are provided
for their benefit. It is recognized that extenuating circumstances may at times make
it difficult for students to attend every class meeting. Should a student be unable to
attend a class, it is his/her responsibility to notify the professor of the reasons for
such absences, and to arrange with the professor the conditions under which any
required work that was missed may be made up. Credit may or may not be awarded
for any course if the number of absences exceeds the number of times that the class
meets per week.

During the first week of each quarter, professors will notify each class of the
attendance policy, emphasizing what constitutes excessive absences, and the
penalty therefore. A student may appeal any absence-related decision of a professor
to the department head, to the Dean of the professor's school, and ultimately to the
Vice President for Academic Affairs.

CALCULATING THE CUMULATIVE AVERAGE

Determinations of scholastic standing are generally based upon a cumulative
grade point average which appears on each student's permanent record. The cumu-
lative grade point average is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points
earned in academic courses at Savannah State College by the total number of acad-
emic credit hours attempted at Savannah State College. Credits earned in other
institutions, credit by examination, credits which carry S/U grades, institutional
credit courses, and courses specifically excluded by college policy are not used in
computing the cumulative grade point average.

FORGIVENESS CLAUSE

"The College will not count the quarter hours and quality points if a course is
repeated and passed with a grade higher than "D". All grades will remain on the
transcript. Adjusted grade point averages will be computed on each quarter and
used as the official average."

THE GRADING SYSTEM

The college uses letters to indicate quality of academic work. A is the highest grade;
D is the lowest passing grade. Grade distinctions and quality points 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

P Pass per credit hour

IP In Progress

V Audit

K Credit per credit hour

NR Not Reported per credit hour

The grade "F" indicates that the student has failed to meet the minimum require-
ments of the course.

All courses in the major, minor, professional education or freshman 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 used, but are not included in the determination of the
grade 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 instructor.

W (Withdrawal) This symbol indicates that a student was permitted to withdraw
without penalty. Withdrawals without penalty will not be permitted after the midpoint
of the total grading period (including final examinations), except in cases of hard-
ship as determined by the academic dean and the Vice President for Student Affairs.

V (Audit) This symbol indicates that a student has been given permission to sit
for a course without receiving quality points or a grade other than "V". Students
may not transfer from audit to credit or vice versa. Students may register, however,
on a credit basis for a course that has previously been audited.

K (Credit) This symbol indicates that a student has been given credit for the
course via a credit by examination program approved by the faculty of the College.
"K" Credit may be provided for a course the student has previously audited if the
institutional procedures for credit by examination are followed.

NR (Noncredit) This symbol indicates no grade reported by the instructor. This
symbol, "NR", should be used only in extreme emergencies and should be removed
from the transcript when the actual grades are reported at the end of the Quarter.

Note:

The numbers in parentheses after course descriptions in the catalog refer to lec-
ture, lab and credit hours.

GRADE CHALLENGES BY STUDENTS

Students who feel that they have received an unfair grade in any course should
moot with the instructor within 7 calendar days of the first day of class of the next
quarter (excluding summer) in an effort to effect a resolution. If a resolution satis-
factory to the student is not effected, the student may challenge the grade by writ-
ing a letter of appeal within 7 days after meeting with the instructor to the head of
the department in which the course was offered. This procedure must be accom-
plished within 14 days of the first day of classes of that quarter. If a resolution satis-
factory to the student is not effected, the department head may appoint a review
committee (exclusive of both the department head and the instructor). The review
committee, after hearing both the instructor and the student, submits its report and
recommendation to the academic vice-president (through the department head). If
the vice-president 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 appropriate change on the student's record. The student must
show adequate evidence of unfair grading for the department head to grant a hearing.

CHANGES IN GRADES

Once a grade has been reported to the Registrar it can be changed only under the
following conditions:

1. Presentation to the dean of the school of conclusive, documentary evidence
that the grade was reported in error;

2. Following the procedure of removal of an I (incomplete) grade; or

3. Upon the recommendation by a committee appointed to conduct a hearing of
a student's challenge of a grade, and the acceptance of that recommendation
by the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

REPORTING OF GRADES

At Mid-quarter, and at the end of the quarter each faculty member submits to the
Office of the Registrar the grade reports for each class. These reports are prepared
in multiple copies, with copies for the Office of the Registrar, the academic vice pres-
ident, the department 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 Registrar sends copies of such reports to the
students, and to the department heads when faculty report deficiencies.

STUDENT LOAD

The normal academic work load is 15 hours per quarter for undergraduate stu-
dents and 10 hours for graduate students. Undergraduate students carrying fewer
than 12 hours per quarter and graduate students carrying fewer than 10 hours per
quarter will not be certified as full-time students.

Under ordinary circumstances a student may enroll in courses up to but not in
excess of nineteen (19) quarter hours. Students who maintain an average of 3.00
during any quarter may secure permission to take additional hours during the following

quarter, the total not to exceed twenty (20) hours. Additionally, students whose gen-
eral average is 3.00 or better may be permitted to take quarter hours in excess of a
normal load up to a limit of twenty (20) 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-three (23). In the case of
students within two quarters of graduation, advisors may recommend the overload
to the dean.

Adjustment of Classes (Dropping)

Students desiring to adjust class schedule should secure the Drop/Add forms from
their academic department; obtain their instructor's signature; take forms to
cashier's office; and then to the Registrar's Office for computer processing. The last
day to withdraw without penalty (WF Grade) is at mid-quarter of each quarter. The
penalty Grade is calculated into Quarter GPA.

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE HONORS

PROGRAM
Christine E. Oliver, Director

PURPOSE AND GOALS

The Savannah State College Honors Program maintains a community of academ-
ically bright and talented students. It identifies these gifted students and provides
them with opportunities for intellectual growth and for achievement of the highest
distinction. The advantages of participation in the Honors Program are numerous.
The program is highly competitive and multi-faceted in nature. The general educa-
tion honors core is the same as the college's general education core; however, honors
students study at an accelerated pace and have a myriad of activities, on and off
campus. Honors students are able to network with other students who are highly
motivated. The program is designed to assist students in their preparation for grad-
uate and professional study and ultimately for the assuming of leadership roles in
their professions and in society-at-large.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Freshmen. Freshmen applicants for admission to the Savannah State College
Honors Program must meet the following requirements:

- Rank in the upper 25 percent of their high school class and/or

-Achieve a minimum SAT score of 900/GPA 3.50 or SAT score of 1200+/GPA 3.30
or a minimum ACT composite score of 22

- Meet the general admission requirements of the College

- Have a strong college preparatory background in English, mathematics, or science

Transfer Students. Students transferring from other universities and colleges
who wish to enter the Savannah State College Honors Program should write a let-
ter of application to the director of the program. They should also present tran-
scripts of their previous college work and any SAT, ACT, and Advanced Placement
Scores. However, since the core of the honors curriculum is offered in the freshman
and sophomore years, transfer students should seek admission to the college as soon
as possible.

ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS AND CREDIT

Continuation Requirements. Honors students are required to enroll in and
successfully complete a minimum of 16 credit hours each quarter. Requirements for
remaining in good academic standing as an Honors Program student are as follows:
Students who do not maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or above
will be placed on honors probation the following quarter. If the standard is not met,
at the close of the probation period, the students will be suspended from the Honors
Program, Suspended students may appeal the decision through proper administra-
tive channels, and may apply for readmission.

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 indicated:

1. Students who maintain an average of B in not less than a normal load (12
hours) 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 (12
hours) 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 following quarter, the total
not to exceed twenty hours. Additionally, 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 hours at Savannah State
College. In addition, students who graduate with honors must attain the following
grade-point average entire period of college attendance:

Cum Laude 3.00

Magna Cum Laude 3.40

Summa Cum Laude 3.75

Spring quarter grades for June Graduation and Fall quarter grades for December
Graduation will not be used in computing the GPA for honors prior to graduation
due to processing and final evaluation time constraints. After June, December grad-
uations, the GPA is rechecked for honors, which may be added if qualified.

ACCESS TO STUDENT RECORDS

Savannah State College is covered by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act of 1974, as amended (FERPA), which is designed to protect the student's rights
with regard to education records maintained by the institution. Under the Act, the
student has the following rights:

1. to inspect and review education records maintained by the institution that
pertain to the student,

2. to challenge the content of records (except grades which can only be chal-
lenged through the academic appeal procedure) on the ground that they are
inaccurate, misleading or a violation of privacy or other rights; and

3. to control disclosures from educational records with certain exceptions.

Savannah State College's written policy on "Access to Student Records" complies
with the provisions of the Act. A copy of this policy and a copy of a summary of the
FERPA regulations may be obtained in the Registrar's Office. Students also have
the right to file complaints with the FERPA Office of the Department of Education,
Washington, D.C. 20201, regarding alleged violations of the Act.

RELEASE OF DIRECTORY INFORMATION

Directory information will be treated as public information and be generally
available on all students and former students, at the discretion of the College.

Directory information includes the student's name; address; telephone number,
date and place of birth, major field of study; participation in officially recognized
activities and sports, height, weight, age, hometown, hobbies and general interest
items of members of athletic teams; dates of attendance; degrees applied for or
received; honors and awards received; and previous educational institutions
attended by the student.

Any student, or parent of a student who is under eighteen (18), may refuse to per-
mit the release of any or all of the categories of directory information until the end
of each academic year (end of Spring Quarter), by submitting a written request to
the College's Registrar within ten (10) days of the beginning of any academic quar-
ter during which the student is enrolled. This time requirement is necessary to
insure that directory information which is withheld is not included in the various
college publications during the year. Of course, requests to withhold the release of
directory information will be honored at any time, but the college cannot be reason-
ably certain that some directory information will not be released if the aforemen-
tioned time limits are not met. The Student Directory is usually published during
the Fall Quarter; obviously, requests received after press time cannot delete infor-
mation from this and similar publications, and previously released information can-
not be recalled.

Inquiries from news media about students or former students should be directed to
the Director of Public Relations. Due to the unpredictable nature and immediacy of

media inquiries, notice cannot be given of media releases (non-athletic). Any student
or former student who wishes to have directory information withheld should notify
the Director oi' Public Relations prior to the anticipated date of any media inquiry.

Change of Address

Students are responsible for notifying the Registrar's office of any change in address.
The mailing o\' notices to the last address on record constitutes official notification.

State Requirement In History and Government

By State law. each student who receives a diploma or certificate from a school
supported by the State of Georgia must demonstrate proficiency in United States
History and Government and in Georgia History and Government. A student at
Savannah State College may demonstrate such proficiency by receiving credit in
certain courses. For U.S. and Georgia government-political science 200; for U.S. and
Georgia History-History 202 or 203.

WITHDRAWING FROM COLLEGE

Students at Savannah State College are regarded as young adults who are capa-
ble of making mature decisions, with minimum counseling, about their educational
plans. Accordingly, any student who feels that the circumstances require his with-
drawal from the College may do so by filing the appropriate forms in the office of
the Vice-President for Student Affairs.

Students who withdraw after the midpoint of each quarter (see Academic
Calendar in this catalog and the quarterly Schedule of Classes) will receive the
grade of "WF" except in cases of hardship as approved by the academic dean in con-
sultation with the Vice-President for Student Affairs. Students should initially peti-
tion the Vice-President for Student Affairs for relief due to extenuating
circumstances resulting in undue hardship.

The Vice-President for Student Affairs, counselors, and advisers 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 Vice President for Academic
Affairs, or his designated representative, will formally approve the request for with-
drawal and forward the appropriate forms to the offices of the Academic Vice-
President, the Registrar, and the Vice-President for Business and Finance.

Students not able to follow this procedure should write or have a representative write
to the Vice President of Student Affairs, requesting permission to withdraw. Students
who withdraw without giving formal notice will forfeit claims for any refunds.

THE LAST DAY TO WITHDRAW FROM ALL CLASSES FOR THE QUARTER
WILL BE THE LAST DAY OF SCHEDULED CLASSES.

DEGREE AND GRADUATION
REQUIREMENTS

EXIT EXAMINATIONS

Additional competency tests appropriate to a student's program of study may be
required by the College, and by the student's academic department prior to gradua-
tion. Information relative to these tests is available in the student's academic
department.

Any student failing to demonstrate required proficiency on any competency test
may be required to complete such additional courses as are necessary to correct the
deficiency. Courses required and completed under this provision may be with or
without academic credit and may be required without regard to prior course credits
in these disciplines.

GRADUATION

A degree will be awarded only to students who meet the standards of performance,
academic requirements, and residence requirements of an academic school. Degrees
are conferred formally at commencement exercises at the end of the spring quarter.
NOTE: See page 70 for Honors.

All candidates for a degree must file a formal application for graduation with the
Registrar's Office. Associate degree candidates should apply in the quarter in which
they expect to attain their sixtieth credit hour or in the third quarter preceding
their expected graduation date, whichever comes first. Baccalaureate candidates
should apply in the quarter in which they expect to attain their one hundred and
thirty-fifth credit hour or in the fourth quarter preceding their expected graduation
date, whichever comes first. Graduate degree candidates must apply at least two
quarters in advance of the expected date of graduation. The Registrar will inform
the student's academic department when the application is filed. The student's
major department will conduct an audit and inform the student of any remaining
requirements. The Registrar conducts an independent audit to insure that all
degree requirements will have been satisfied.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE

Graduation requirements include a 2.00 minimum graduation grade point average
for undergraduate degrees. The computation of this graduation grade point average
will employ only the final attempt in courses which have been repeated. With the
preceding exception, the graduation grade point average will be computed in the
manner prescribed in The Grading System and Cumulative Grade Point Average
sections of the General Catalog. Credits earned in other institutions or by examina-
tion, and courses which carry S/U grades, are not used in computing the graduation
grade point average.

All incomplete grades for previous quarters must be received in the Office of the
Registrar in writing thirty (30) days prior to graduation date or completion of acade-
mic requirements. It is the student's responsibility to see to it that incomplete
grades are properly recorded in the appropriate offices.

must take six (6) credit hours of electives to replace the physical activity graduation
requirements.

ACADEMIC PROBATION AND SUSPENSION

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 disci-
pline. At the end of each quarter the Office 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 Vice-President for Academic
Affairs of the College prior to notification of students and their parents or guardians
of the academic probation, suspension, or dismissal of students. In addition, he shall
notify other appropriate personnel of this action.

1. Any student who earns a D or F in English 107, or 109 or in any course
required in his major or minor must repeat the course during the next quar-
ter that it is offered.

2. Stages of Progress Minimum Cumulative

Quarter Hours Grade Point Average
1-45 1.5

46-90 1.7

91 and above 2.0

A student whose cumulative grade average at the end of any quarter is at or
above the minimum grade point average for his appropriate stage of progress
will be considered in good standing.

A student whose cumulative grade point average first falls below the mini-
mum grade point average for his stage of progress will then be placed on acad-
emic warning .

A student on academic warning whose cumulative grade point average is not
raised to the satisfactory level for his stage of progress at the end of the quar-
ter will then be placed on academic probation .

A student who does not achieve the cumulative grade point average for his
stage of progress, but does maintain a 2.0 grade point average for his probation-
ary quarter will be continued on probation for the next quarter of attendance.

A student who does not raise his grade point average to the minimum level
for his stage of progress or achieve a 2.0 grade point average during his pro-
bationary quarter will be suspended from the College for one quarter.

3. 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 twelve to fifteen
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 concen-
tration and Freshman English in which he earned the grade of D; (3) must
report to their academic advisor for counseling immediately after being noti-
fied of the probationary status, and (4) will not be permitted to represent the
College or hold office in any college organization.

4. A student who does not remove the probationary status within two quarters
will be suspended for one quarter unless he/she achieves a 2.00 average dur-
ing the second quarter of the probation period. Thereafter, the probation will
be continued, without suspension, so long as the student continues to make a
2.00 average for each quarter that he/she is enrolled.

5. Any student who fails all of his/her classes during a given quarter, or who
withdraws from all of his/her classes without an approved withdrawal from
the college, will not be permitted to enroll for the succeeding quarter.

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 maturity.

The College reserves the right to deny admission to any student who has been sus-
pended for academic reasons.

7. Applications for Readmission are considered by the Committee on Admission
on the Basis of detailed information concerning the cause of failure, academic
goals, entrance tests, college grades previously earned, length of absence,
motivation, outside commitments, and recommendations from appropriate
personnel.

8. A student who has been readmitted will be allowed three quarters to remove
his probationary status; however, if he/she maintains a minimum grade point
average of 2.00 each quarter of his probationary period, his probation may be
extended. Failure to fulfill these conditions will result in dismissal. One cal-

endar year after dismissal, a student may petition the Academic Council of
the College for readmission if he/she 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.

REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM

The policy of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia requires
that each institution administer an examination to assess the competency level in
reading and writing of all students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs in
University System institutions. The Regents' Policy statement appears below:

Each institution of the University System of Georgia shall assure the other
institutions, and the System as a whole, that students obtaining a degree from
that institution possess literacy competence, that is, certain minimum skills of
reading and writing.

The Regents' Testing Program has been developed to help in the attainment of
this goal. The objectives of the Testing Program are: (1) to provide Systems
wide information on the status of student competence in the areas of reading
and writing; and (2) to provide a uniform means of identifying those students
who fail to attain the minimum levels of competence in the areas of reading
and writing.

Passing the Regents' Testing is defined as having passed all components of the
Test by scoring above the cutoff score specified for each component. The test
may be administered either in its entirety or as one or more components
depending on the needs of the students. If one component of the Test is passed,
that component need not be retaken; this provision is retroactive to all stu-
dents who have taken the Test in any form since the inception of the program.

The intent of this policy is that passing the Regents' Test occur before the end
of the student's sophomore year, that is, before the completion of 90 hours of
degree credit. Students who fail the test must retake and pass the Test. Each
institution shall provide an appropriate program of remediation and shall require
deficient students to participate in that program prior to retaking the test.

INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES REGARDING
THE REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM

All students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs are required to pass the
Regents' Examination in reading and writing prior to graduation.

Requirements

1. Students who have earned forty-five (45) credit hours and passed English 107
and 108 are REQUIRED to take Regents' Examination during the next quar-
ter of enrollment after having earned forty-five credit hours.

2. Students who have earned sixty (60) credit hours (regardless of the English
courses passed) are REQUIRED to take Regents' Examination during the
next quarter of enrollment after having earned sixty credit hours.

3. First time examines must take both parts of the Examination in one adminis-
tration.

4. First time examines are required to sit for the Regents' Testing Program "Test
Preparation Seminar" prior to taking the Examination. This seminar is
jointly sponsored by the staff of the Comprehensive Counseling Center and
the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. A student may be excused from this
seminar only by the Dean of the School in which the student is enrolled.

5. Students who fail to sit for the Examination as required under numbers 1
and 2 above will be suspended.

6. Students who pass both parts of the Examination in one administration or in
separate administrations will be considered to have met the Regents'
Examination requirements.

7. Those students who, prior to January 1, 1980, failed to pass both parts of the
Examination in one administration, but who passed both parts in separate
administrations, are now considered to have met the Regents' Examination
requirement. If these students have completed all other graduation require-
ments, their date of graduation (the date which will appear on the diploma)
will be the first institutional graduation date after January 1, 1980.

8. Students must take the Regents' Examination each quarter until both parts
have been successfully passed.

Remediation for Regents' Examination

Students who have not passed the Regents' Examination before they earn sev-
enty-five (75) hours of credit or who fail either part of the examination after earning
seventy-five hours of credit must enroll in English 092 (Writing) and or English 093
(Reading) during the quarter subsequent to earning 75 credit hours or failing the
Examination. Permission will not be given to retake the Examination unless stu-
dents complete the remediation courses. Failure to attend these required remedia-
tion courses will result in cancellation of a student's registration for that quarter.
Each of these courses carries five hours of institutional credit and requires that the
students successfully complete approximately fifty (50) hours of classroom and labo-
ratory instruction each quarter. Grades in English 092 and 093 will be "S"
(Satisfactory), "U" (Unsatisfactory), or "F' (Non Attendance or Stopped Attending.)

Savannah State College students who may be jointly enrolled at other System
schools are required to take their Regents' Examination remedial courses at
Savannah State College.

Students who have failed to pass both parts of the Examination must register for
both English 092 and English 093. These courses must not be taken concurrently;
for example, students must take English 092 during the first five weeks of a quarter
and English 093 during the second five weeks of that same quarter. Students
required to take both English 092 and English 093 in a single quarter will not be
permitted to enroll for more than five (5) regular credit quarter hours.

Students who are required to take either English 092 or English 093 will not be
permitted to enroll for more than ten (10) regular credit hours.

Students who have met all other requirements for graduation may register for
both English 092 and 093 concurrently.

Failure to sit for the Examination during the quarter in which remediation is
taken will result in suspension for one quarter. Students who have been suspended
for failure to sit for the Examination when required must re-enroll for remedial
courses during their next quarter of enrollment and they must also sit for the

Examination that quarter. If these students fail to enroll in remediation their regis-
tration will be cancelled.

Student Responsibility

Students are responsible for complying with all Institutional policies regarding
the Regents' Testing Program. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action
ranging from cancellation of registration to suspension, depending upon the gravity

of the situation.

Academic Advising

Academic advisors should verify compliance with this policy before signing-off on
class schedules of their advises. Accordingly, academic advisors should:

1. Require that students with 45 credit hours sit for the Regents' Test upon the
completion of English 107 and 108.

2. Assure that advises adhere to all policies regarding required sitting and
remediation.

3. Encourage students to register for freshmen English during each quarter of
enrollment until they pass the three required courses.

Transfer Students

All transfer students from within the System will be subject to all provisions of
this policy. Students from institutions outside the System who transfer to Savannah
State College with seventy-five (75) or more earned degree credit hours shall take
the Test during the second quarter of enrollment and in subsequent quarters shall
be subject to all provisions of this policy.

Graduate Students

Students with baccalaureate degrees from colleges and universities within the
University of Georgia System or from other, regionally accredited colleges and uni-
versities will be exempt from these Policies.

Foreign Students

Students whose native language is other than English may be exempted from
taking the Regents' Test; however, such students must take the Savannah State
College English Competency Test for Foreign Students in lieu of the Regents' Test.
Such students are subject to all of the provisions of this policy regarding eligibility
and remediation.

Handicapped Students

Students with legal visual, auditory, or motor handicaps may arrange for local
certification of competency with the Regents' Test Coordinator.

Essay Test Review Policy

The Regents' Test itself and the scoring criteria are not subject to review; the
same methods of scoring will be used during the review process as that in the origi-
nal scoring. Scoring will follow the normal holistic procedure.

1. A student may request a formal review of his failure on the essay component
of the Regents' Test if that student's essay received at least one passing score
among the three scores awarded and if the student has completed English
107, 108, and 109.

2. A student must initiate the review procedure by mid-term of his first quarter
of enrollment after the quarter in which the essay was failed. The review
must be initiated, however, within one calendar year from the quarter in
which the failure occurred.

3. The review will be initiated at Savannah State College by the student's com-
pleting a "Request for Review" form available at the Office of the Regents'
Test Coordinator. The Regents' Coordinator will determine the student's eligi-
bility based upon the criteria in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. The review, if war-
ranted, will be conducted by a three-member panel (composed of two English
instructors and one additional person) appointed by the Vice-President of the
College and designated as the on-campus review panel.

4. The on-campus review panel may (1) sustain, by majority opinion, the essay's
failing score, thus terminating the review process, or (2) recommend, by
majority Opinion, the re-scoring of the essay by the Regents' Testing Program
central office. The Regents' Test Coordinator will notify the student of the
results of the on-campus review.

5. If the on-campus review panel recommends re-scoring of the essay, the
Regents' Test Coordinator will transmit that recommendation in writing
along with a copy of the essay, to the office of the System's Director of the
Regents' Testing Program.

The System's Director will utilize the services of three (3) experienced
Regents' essay scores other than those involved in the original scoring. The
decision of this panel on the merits of the essay will be final, thus terminat-
ing the review process. The Regents' Test Coordinator will notify the student
of the results of the review.

6. All the applicable regulations of the Regents' Test Policy remain in effect for
those students whose essays are under review, including those regulations
relating to remediation and to retaking the Test.

Registration Procedures for the Regents' Exam

The Director of Testing, Whiting Hall, will publish the dates and times for stu-
dents required to take the Regents' Test each Quarter. Students are notified of the
Regents' Examination requirement on their Registration Form. Failure to take the
test at the prescribed time will result in disciplinary action ranging from a repri-
mand to a suspension.

Veterans, Disability, and War Orphans' Benefit

Savannah State College maintains a veterans coordinator in the Office of the
Registrar to certify and assist students who are eligible for veterans benefits and to
coordinate veterans affairs.

Any veteran who wishes to attend Savannah State College under any of the vet-
eran's benefits programs provided by public law should apply to the Savannah State
College admissions office in the normal manner. It is advisable for a veteran who
has not previously used any educational benefits to apply to the VA Regional Office
for those benefits, and for a veteran who will be transferring to Savannah State
from another institution where educational benefits were received to process a
"Request for Change of Program or Place of Training" form with the VA Regional
Office concurrently with his/her application to Savannah State College. As soon as
the applicant is notified of acceptance by the Savannah State College Admissions
Office, the SSC veterans coordinator should be contacted for further instructions.

Although additional information is contained on the application for benefits and
informational sheet to be completed in the Office of the Registrar, veteran students
should pay particular attention to the following:

1. Veteran student may be certified for benefits only after having been accepted
to and while attending in a designated degree program (except for students
enrolled in the Division of Learning Support or in certain certification pro-
grams). Students classified as non-degree (ND), post-graduate (PG) or post-
baccalaureate (PB) will not be certified for benefits while attending in those
classifications, unless enrolled in an approved certification program.

2. Students may be certified for only those courses which apply to their formal
and designated degree objective. Certain required remediation and/or prereq-
uisite courses may be certified for benefits, but only if those courses are
specifically required of the student, and the requirement is appropriately doc-
umented in the Office of the Registrar.

3. Students receiving benefits are required to notify the Veterans Coordinator
whenever their attendance in a course or programs is interrupted, or whenever
the student formally changes degree objectives. Failure to do so may result in
an overpayment of benefits, and the student's liability for those payments.

4. Students may not be certified for repeated courses unless the repetition is
required by academic policy which is specified in the college catalog.

5. Savannah State College defines a normal full-time load for undergraduate
students as 12 quarter hours. Undergraduate students who carry fewer than
12 quarter hours will not be certified as full time.

6. Continuing students who wish to continue to receive benefits must renew
their certifications through the Veterans Coordinator each fall and summer
quarter. Students whose attendance was interrupted must renew their certi-
fications at the beginning of the next quarter of attendance in which they
wish to receive benefits. Learning Support students, active military duty, and
students attending on a less-than-half-time basis must renew their certifica-
tions each quarter. These students who are certified on a quarterly basis will
routinely experience a break in benefit payments between terms and should
contact the Veterans Administration regional Office to ascertain the amount
and schedule of their checks.

7. Veterans with discharges (DD-214) are exempted from taking physical educa-
tion (P.E.) courses. They can provide a copy of their DD-214 and receive up to
6 credit hours of P.E. Veterans should he prepared to pay their own tuition
and fees if they have not applied for advance pay at least 40 days prior to the
beginning of the quarter.

New Undeclared Majors: Advised in Division of Learning Support.

Transfer Students: Advised by their Major Academic Department

Transient and Armstrong Exchange Students: Advised in the Admissions Office

PRE-REGISTRATION - UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE

Pre-registration for a quarter occurs midway through the previous quarter and
gives currently enrolled students the opportunity to enroll early in desired classes.

In order to participate in pre-registration, students must have an approved
Departmental stamp and advisor's signature on the registration form. Payment due
must be submitted approximately two weeks before the beginning of the next quar-
ter. If payment is not submitted by the specified due date, the student's schedule
will be canceled. The student will have to re-register prior to the start of classes.

REGISTRATION

Registration occurs after pre-registration, and is open to any eligible admitted
student. Dates for registration can be found in the College Calendar in this Catalog
and in the Schedule of Classes.

MAIL REGISTRATION

A mail registration period is provided for all pre-registered graduate and under-
graduate students. A check (include student social security number) for full pay-
ment of tuition and fees accompanied by all copies of printout of classes must be
sent to the Office of the Cashier.

LATE REGISTRATION

Late registration begins on the first day of classes of each quarter. Late registra-
tion fee is $50.00.

SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENT (DROP AND ADD)

Once a student has registered, to add or drop from courses a student must com-
plete a drop-add form in the Registrar's Office as follows:

Adding a Course: Courses can be added through the first eight calendar days of
the term.

Dropping a Course: Courses can be dropped through the first five weeks of the
term with a grade of "W" appearing on the Student's academic
record. The last day to drop a course without academic penalty
is mid-quarter.

SPECIAL REGISTRATION CONDITIONS

Students taking courses as audit or as repeated courses are responsible for
obtaining and completing the proper forms to identify such courses at the time of
registration, during schedule adjustment, or during late registration.

Auditing Courses: Anyone wishing to audit a course may do so. An audited

course does not carry credit or earn a grade. No one
may change from credit status to audit status or from
audit status to credit status after classes begin.

Repetition of Courses: A course previously taken for credit may be repeated.

The credit hours of the repeated course are counted
only once. While all grades are entered on the stu-
dent's official academic record, only the most recent
grade counts in the student's grade point average.

Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory: Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U) grading is only avail-
able in certain courses. Letter grades cannot be given

in these courses. The quarter hours in courses taken
on a S/U basis will count toward the College's mini-
mum quarter hour requirements for graduation if they
are passed successfully. Neither the course hours nor
any quality points are computed into the student's
grade point average if the grade is "Satisfactory or
Unsatisfactory."

WITHDRAWAL FROM THE COLLEGE DURING AN ACADEMIC TERM

A student who wishes to withdraw from all classes during a term (even if only
registered for one course) must do the following:

1 . Notify the appropriate school dean or Academic Advisor in person or in writing;

2. Obtain authorization from the dean or advisor by completing a withdrawal
form with the Vice President for Student Affairs;

3. Submit the completed form to the Registrar's Office.

A student is considered enrolled until officially withdrawn. Failure to withdraw
officially from the college will result in grades of "F" for all courses. Once a quarter
begins, withdrawal from the college is recorded as an "Official Withdrawal" on the
student's academic record.

A student who wishes to withdraw from the college between quarters is not
required to withdraw formally but is encouraged to contact his/her academic advisor
or dean about the decision.

TRANSCRIPT/ACADEMIC RECORD

The transcript is the official academic record for all Savannah State students.
Official copies must be obtained from the Registrar's Office. Before transcripts are
issued, all financial obligations to the college must be met.

Transcript orders must be made in writing (in person or mail-in) and signed by
the student. If the standard transcript request form is not used, the request should
include the student's name(s) while in attendance, the ID number and/or social
security number, dates of attendance, major(s), any degree earned, the address where
the transcript should be sent and required fee. Checks are not accepted.

All questions' should be directed to the Registrar's Office at (912) 356-2212.

through the Housing Office. The card is the student's official college identification
and must be used to withdraw books from the library, purchase tickets or gain
admission to college sponsored events, and utilize facilities and services. Questions
concerning services and privileges available to students should be referred to the
Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs.

interdepartmental

The Department of Humanities offers courses leading to the baccalaureate degree
(B.A.) in two areas: English language and literature and mass communications.
Minor programs in English, mass communications, and religious and philosophical
studies are available. The Department promotes an extensive, interdisciplinary
approach that encourages investigation in cognate areas and allows for individual-
ization of interests and pursuit and prepares the student for graduate study and
career development.

The objectives of the Department are as follows:

1. To prepare students for graduate study in English language and literature.

2. To serve as a pre-professional area for students preparing for advanced study
in other areas, such as humanities, law, library science.

3. To prepare students for employment in non-traditional careers for humanities
majors (banking, insurance, etc.)

4. To prepare students for careers in mass communications in three areas: radio
and television, print, journalism, and media management.

5. To help students develop competence in English communicative skills: read-
ing, writing, speaking, listening, analysis, and critical thinking.

6. To help students develop knowledge and appreciation of world art, literature,
and music from the ancient period through the modern period, with recursive
reference to and study of Black African and African American humanities.

THE INTERDISCIPLINARY MASS COMMUNICATIONS MAJOR

The Mass Communications Degree Program is an interdisciplinary program
which offers the student who is interested in a professional communications career
a unique opportunity to obtain extraordinary career flexibility.

The program which leads to the B.A. degree, allows the student the option of con-
centrating in one of the following areas: print, journalism, radio and television, and
media management.

Enriched knowledge and understanding of the nature, circumstances, and aspira-
tions of people are derived from historical, literary, social, philosophical, and theological

142

studios, which are traditionally called humanistic. Therefore, the mass communica-
tions program utilizes these disciplines to assist students in the development of
basic insights into human nature and in the acquisition of humanistic principles
upon which the media must rest.

Additionally, students are provided with the opportunity to further enhance their
skills by working as volunteers at WHCJ-FM Radio, and by working on the staff of
the College newspaper, the Tiger's Roar.

Every student enrolled in the program is required to take six mass communica-
tions core courses: COM 110, Introduction to Mass Communications; COM 200, Basic
News Writing: ENG 201, Principles of Speech; COM 215, Writing for Radio and TV.;
COM 312, Public Relations Practices, and COM 492, Professional Media Internship.

ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACCALAUREATE

criminal justice, history, political science, sociology and psychology to prepare stu-
dents for graduate studies and career goals. These programs include scholarly activ-
ities designed to develop historical consciousness, an awareness of civic responsibilities,
an appreciation of cultural diversity, and an understanding of human behavior and

The Department of Social Work provides academic preparation for the profession
of social work. There is a conscious effort made to integrate teaching, research, and
community service through the activities of the faculty and students. The depart-
mental curriculum, internships and field experience are designed to develop schol-
arly and professional attitudes, values, and practice in social work.

The social work program is fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Edu-
cation (CSWE) and offers the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree.

The objectives of the Department are as follows:

1. To prepare social work students for entry level professional social work prac-
tice with individuals, small groups, families and communities.

2. To prepare students for graduate study in social work, and related fields.

3. To prepare students for employment in private, local, state, federal, and
human service agencies.

4. To provide an organized structure through which students and faculty can
provide service to the community in the form of research, continuing educa-
tion, and volunteer agency activities.

Purpose

The School of Humanities and Social Sciences is strongly committed to the devel-
opment of the intellectual, social, and professional competence of individuals.
Consistent with this philosophy, the School and Savannah State College offer the
MPA Program which enables students to acquire specialized training in Public
Administration. The Master of Public Administration Program (MPA) strives to broaden
the students' understanding of the problems and opportunities of urban communi-
ties and develop an awareness of social and civic responsibility. The MPA Program
is dedicated to service through educational programs, community involvement, faculty
and student research, and scholarship. By offering advanced professional training,
the program prepares individuals for positions of responsibility at all levels of gov-
ernment, education and business. Students acquire administrative, managerial, and
technical knowledge and skills needed for a successful public service career.

Admission Classification

A prospective student who has earned a baccalaureate degree and plans to take
additional work beyond the baccalaureate degree must apply to the Graduate
School and be admitted under one of the following classifications:

Degree Student:

Students who are admitted to the Graduate School with the expressed intention of
following a program leading to a graduate degree are classified as degree students.
When admitted as a degree student, the applicant will be placed in one of the fol-
lowing categories:

a. Regular Admission - A prospective candidate for a degree who meets all
requirements for unqualified admission to the Graduate Schools and has
been recommended by the school, division, or department in which he/she
proposes to study and approved by the Dean of the Graduate School is classi-
fied as a regular degree student.

Requirements

Each applicant will submit a portfolio consisting of the following items:
completion of an undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university;

209

official transcripts showing an undergraduate grade point average of at least
2.5 on a 4.0 scale;

three letters of reference from academic and/or professional persons familiar
with the applicant's ability and potential to succeed in a professional graduate
degree program;

essay of between 500 to 1000 words on the applicant's reasons for seeking the
MPA degree;

an undergraduate major of the equivalent appropriate to the proposed field of
study. For the applicant who has insufficient preparation in political science,
American Government Seminar (PAD 841) is required. All students admitted to
the program must have completed a course in statistics before taking statistical
application in public administration (PAD 839). Students must have knowl-
edge of word processing and spread sheets. For students entering the pro-
gram from a discipline other than the social and behavioral sciences, not less
than 15 hours in government, political science or public administration are
required. Course selection will be made in consultation with the MPA director;

a current resume detailing relevant work experience.

b. Provisional Admission

Provisional admission may be awarded to applicants who meet some, but not
all, of the above criteria. Applicants who do not qualify for regular admission
may be granted provisional admission. Students may be provisionally admit-
ted if their graduate record examination (GRE) scores are less than the
required combined score of 900 on the verbal and quantitative components of
the exam. Provisionally admitted students must retake the graduate record
exam and qualify for regular admission by scoring 900 on the combined ver-
bal and quantitative components. While pursuing the MPA degree in a provi-
sional status, students will be allowed to enroll in only three (3) courses and
must maintain a grade point average 3.0. When such students successfully
satisfy the GRE requirements, the admissions committee will re-evaluate
their academic standings and upgrade their status of regular admittance.
Students who fail to score the required 900 on the exam, but who maintain a
3.0 grade point average, will be reviewed by the admissions committee at
which time a decision will be made as to their eligibility to continue in the
program.

c. Non-Degree Student:

An applicant may be admitted to the Graduate School (but not to a degree
program) as a non-degree student to earn credit in graduate courses without
working toward a degree. One who is admitted as a non-degree student may
reapply for a degree program at any time. Students are admitted non-degree
under one of the following categories:

The completion requirements of the MPA Program consist of;

successful completion of the nine required courses in the core curriculum;

successful completion of five elective courses chosen by the graduate student
in consultation with his or her academic advisor;

acceptable performance on a comprehensive examination developed and
administrated by a committee of the MPA faculty;

210

completion of a full time internship experience of appropriate activity and
duration including a capstone internship paper to be approved by the MPA
faculty;

3.0 GPA cumulative grade point in all course work;

a. Regular - An applicant admitted to the Graduate School but not to a
degree program who holds a Masters degree may enter as a regular, non-
degree. A student enrolling for graduate work under this classification is
not limited in the number of quarter hours of graduate credit earned.

b. Provisional - An applicant admitted to the Graduate School but not to a
degree program is limited to earn a total of fifteen (15) quarter hours
credit in graduate courses. A student initiating graduate work under this
classification may reapply for a degree program by submitting proper cre-
dentials. GRADUATE CREDIT EARNED UNDER THIS CLASSIFICA-
TION MAY NOT COUNT TOWARD A DEGREE PROGRAM EXCEPT
UNDER SPECIAL CONDITIONS DECIDED AT THE TIME OF ADMIS-
SION TO A GRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAM.

TRANSIENT:

In order to be admitted to the Graduate School under this classification, the
student must submit, prior to registration, an application and certification
that he or she is in good standing in a recognized graduate school in another
institution and that he or she wishes to enroll in the MPA Program at
Savannah State College for specified quarter. A special form for this purpose
is available from the office of the Graduate Dean. A student is admitted
under this classification for one quarter only. The student must be readmitted
under this classification each quarter to be eligible for graduate courses.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES:

All degree seeking applicants for admission to the MPA Program must:

1. Submit a completed application furnished by the Graduate Dean.

2. Submit two (2) official transcripts of all previous academic work. (Graduates
of Savannah State College will submit only official transcripts of college
credits earned elsewhere after graduation from Savannah State College.

Graduate Dean twenty (20) days before the beginning of the quarter in which
the student wishes to register. Materials submitted in support of an applicant
become the property of Savannah State College and cannot be forwarded or

returned.

211

INTERNSHIP REQUIREMENTS

The Internship in Public Administration is a major component of the MPA
Program.

The Internship provides each student an opportunity to apply knowledge and
skills acquired in the course work phase of the program.

Pre-service - students serve a six to nine month internship in an appropri-
ate agency or organization. In-service students, individuals who have
already established themselves in an area of employment before entering
the MPA Program, can fulfill the internship requirements at the existing
agency or organization. In-service students can typically complete the nec-
essary Internship paper in one quarter.

Pre-service students submit progress reports on the Internship each quar-
ter. Letter grades are awarded for these interns each term. However, in-
service students receive only the single grade. If their project is not
complete at the end of the quarter, they receive the grade "IP" (in-
progress). This is changed to a letter grade when the final work is
approved.

ADMISSION TO CANDIDACY

It is the responsibility of the student pursuing a program leading to the
Master of Public Administration degree to make application for admission to
candidacy after completion of thirty hours of graduate work. Unless admitted
to candidacy, a graduate student may not continue graduate courses after
earning thirty hours of graduate credit without written permission of the
Dean of the Graduate School. The application should be filed with the office
of the Graduate Dean. Approval of the application is contingent upon the fol-
lowing certification by the Program Director:

1. That the applicant has made satisfactory progress in a planned pro-
gram of study.

2. That applicant is classified or is eligible for classification as "Regular",
in the Graduate School.

PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

Prior to admission to candidacy for the degree, the MPA Program Director
may require a preliminary examination for the candidate. The purpose of the
examination is to determine the qualifications of the candidate and to make
recommendations of the advisability of his/her continuing in the program.

TERMINAL EXAMINATION

A terminal examination, to be scheduled at least two weeks prior to grad-
uation, is required of all candidates for the degree of Master of Public
Administration. The final examination will be conducted by a committee con-
sisting of members of the faculty in the discipline appointed by the Program
Director. The date of the examination, the time, and place, will be set by the
Program Director.

The candidate is eligible to receive the degree of Master of Public Adminis-
tration upon completion of all course work in the planned program, a satisfac-
tory report on the examination, and an internship of six to nine months.
Students in this program are not required to submit a traditional master's
thesis. All matriculants are required to submit a comprehensive paper as part
of the internship requirements.

212

CREDIT TRANSFER

A graduate student may transfer credit from a accredited graduate school for
recording on a permanent record.

Maximum credit to ten quarter hours from an accredited graduate school may
apply toward a graduate degree provided:

a. The institution offers the graduate degree program for which the student has
been admitted at Savannah State College.

b. Two official transcripts are sent directly to the Graduate School from the
institution in which graduate work was taken.

c. The student has unqualified admission to a degree program when work was

taken.

d. The credit was earned no more than six years prior to date of completion of
the graduate degree.

e. The student's facultj' advisor in consultation with the program director
should approve the transfer credit as a part of the students program of study.

A student pursuing the MPA degree at Savannah State College who plans to take
graduate courses at another institution as a transient student must have the
Director submit a request to the Graduate Dean for prior approval for any course that
the graduate student plans to take at another institution as a transient student to
insure the fact that the course taken at another institution will constitute a part of
the planned program. Students who take courses without prior approval are doing
so with the possibility that the course may not count in the program for the degree.

A student pursuing a graduate degree at Savannah State College who enrolls at
another institution to take the final courses in a degree program in the Spring quar-
ter, if he/she plans to graduate in June, or in the summer quarter, if he/she plans to
graduate in August, will not be eligible to receive the degree at the convocation in
the quarter in which he/she is enrolled at another institution.

The student, upon request, will be furnished a statement that all requirements
for the degree have been completed when said requirements have been satisfied.

NO GRADE LOWER THAN A "B" IN A COURSE EARNED AT ANOTHER INSTI-
TUTION MAY BE ACCEPTED IN TRANSFER CREDIT TO COUNT TOWARD
THE MPA DEGREE AT SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE.

REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION

Subject to the limitations and qualifications stated elsewhere in this bulletin, the
requirements for an advanced degree are as follows:

a. A minimum of three quarters (one academic year) or three summer sessions
in residence.

b. Satisfactory completion of course work and other requirements appropriate to
the advanced degree for which the student is a candidate.

c. Present to the Graduate Dean the application for the degree prior to date
listed in the official calendar.

d. Present to the office of the Registrar an application for graduation not later
than the beginning of the final quarter before completing academic requirements.

213

The beginning of the final quarter is interpreted to mean the last official day of
registration as stated in the official college calendar.

The graduation fee must be paid and all other financial obligations or "holds"
must be satisfied before a student is cleared for graduation.

COURSE REGISTRATION

A student admitted to the Graduate Program must register for courses within
twelve months after admission. An applicant who does not register within the
period of twelve months will be required to submit a new application for admission
at a later date. A student who reapplies must satisfy all conditions for admission
required at the time of reapplication. A student who has been admitted to Graduate
Program and begins a program of study and fails to enroll in any quarter following
the period in which he/she initiated the course work must notify the Graduate Dean
of his/her intention to enroll in a subsequent quarter and must complete a readmis-
sion form furnished by the Graduate Dean's Office.

A student who has completed the stated objective in admission to the Graduate
Program must reapply for additional course work after completion of the objective.

REQUIRED ACADEMIC STANDING

An average of "B" must be maintained on all courses attempted in the Master of
Public Administration degree program. No grade below a "C" may apply toward any
degree. A student cannot graduate with less than a 3.0 GPA.

PROBATION AND EXCLUSION

A student whose average falls below 3.0 upon completion of any multiple of three
courses, or fifteen quarter hours, will be placed on probation. If the average is below 3.0
when three additional courses, or fifteen quarter hours, have been completed, he or she
will be ineligible to continue graduate work. Only credit earned in graduate courses
at Savannah State College may be used to repair deficiencies in grade point average.

STUDY LOAD

The normal course load for a graduate student is ten quarter hours and the student
may earn credit for no more than fifteen quarter hours in any one quarter. A graduate
student holding appointment as a graduate assistant may earn no more that ten
quarter hours of credit during any one quarter without special admission from the
advisor, Program Director, or Dean.

RESIDENCE AND TIME LIMITS

All work credited toward the degree must be completed in six years. Extension of
time, not to exceed the time limit included in the policy of the College may be
granted only on conditions beyond control of the student. (This information may be
obtained from the Graduate Dean.) A formal request outlining the conditions upon
which the extension of time is made should be addressed to the Graduate Dean of
the College.

The minimum residence required for a Master's degree is one academic year or
three summer sessions.

214

CHANGE OF DEGREE PROGRAM OR
MAJOR WITHIN A DEGREE PROGRAM

With the approval of the Graduate Dean, a student may change his/her degree
objective or major within a degree program provided he is in good standing in his cur-
rent program and has unqualified admission to the Graduate Program. The student
will he required to satisfy, in full, the course requirements as prescribed by his/her
degree objective or major within a degree program provided he or she is in good
standing in his current program and has unqualified admission to the Graduate
Program. The student will be required to satisfy, in full the course requirements as
prescribed by his/her new academic advisor and if changing degree program, the stu-
dent must meet all admission requirements for the new degree.

GRADING SYSTEM

The "A" grade may be interpreted to mean that the instructor recognized excep-
tional capacities and exceptional performance.

The grade "B" signifies that the student has, for any combination of reasons,
demonstrated a significantly more effective command of the material than is gener-
ally expected in the course.

The "C" grade is the instructor's certification that the student has demonstrated
minimal mastery of the required material.

The student is graded "D" when his/her grasp of the course is unsatisfactory.

The "F" grade indicates failure to master the essentials and the necessity for
repeating before credit may be allowed.

An incomplete grade "I" indicated that the student was doing satisfactory work
but was unable to meet the full requirements of the course due to non-academic rea-
sons beyond his/her control, An "I" must be removed by the end of the fourth quar-
ter (one calendar year) following the quarter in which it was recorded. It is the
student's responsibility to insure that the course work is completed. If the "I" is not
satisfactorily removed at the appropriate time it will be changed to an "F".

An "S" indicates that credit has been given for completion of degree requirements
other than academic course work.

The symbol "U" indicates unsatisfactory performance in an attempt to complete
degree requirements other than academic course work.

Neither "S", nor "U" is included in the computation of the grade point average.

A "W" is employed to indicate official withdrawal from a course without penalty.
It is assigned in all cases in which a student withdraws before the mid-point of the
quarter. Beyond the mid-term a "WF' will be assigned except in cases of hardship as
determined by the Dean of the Graduate School. A "W" is not considered in comput-
ing the grade point average. The "WF' is computed as an "F\

Any withdrawal from a course must be approved by the Dean of the Graduate
School. Any student who discontinues attending a class for which he/she is regis-
tered will receive an "F' unless he/she officially (by appropriate signatures) with-
draws from the course at the time he/she ceases to attend.

A student who registers for a course and finds that he/she has made an error at
registration must take the official change through drop/add. Under no conditions
may a student earn credit for a course unless he/she registered officially for the course.
It is the student's responsibility to follow the proper procedures in changing courses.

215

A student may not repeat any course for credit for which he/she has already
received a grade of "C" or better.

Application for the Degree

The candidate who expects to graduate in June Commencement exercise must file

cal principles, and will enable them to apply these basic skills to their respective
areas of study; and (2) to provide students in mathematics, and computer science
technology with the theory and applications necessary for use in post-baccalaureate
study and/or in the work force, insights into physical and natural laws, and the ana-
lytical and logical thinking necessary for the application of these tools in the various
fields as measured by departmental and national level examinations.

Engineering technology embraces the physical sciences, mathematics, and the
practices and materials of modern industry which are utilized in the design and
construction of the machines, structures, highways, power sources, process systems,
communication systems, and products needed to maintain a highly technological
society. The activities of engineering technologists are concerned with translating
the concepts and theories of professional engineers and scientists into actual devices
and products by using tests to provide data for rational solutions and designs. These
tests are followed by interpretations of data and preparation of appropriate plans
for use by skilled craftsmen who produce the devices and/or products.

The objective of the engineering technology program is to provide students with an
educational experience that will enable them to succeed as engineering technologists.
This process requires the college to provide opportunities for students to acquire the
essential educational experiences for applying scientific and engineering knowledge
and methods coupled with technical skills in support of engineering activities.

REGISTRATION FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER

projects affecting public health, safety and life. The registration process involves
written examination, professional work experience and professional recommendations.

Although it is not the goal of Savannah State College to offer programs to prepare
an individual to become a registered professional engineer, it is possible for an engi-
neering technology graduate to become registered in Georgia and some other states.
The requirements for registration as a professional engineer vary from state to state
with some states not allowing engineering technology graduates to become regis-
tered. Students considering registration as a professional engineer should contact
Dr. Pravin K. Raut for further information.

DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY SCIENCE

(ARMY ROTC)

CAPTAIN ANTHONY PHILLIPS, Head

Sergeant First Class Kenneth Turner

Vera A. Trappio, Secretary

General

The Department of Military Science is a Senior Division Reserve Officer Training
Corps (ROTC), Instructor Group, staffed by active army personnel. The Armstrong
State department provides a curriculum available to Savannah State students that
qualifies the college graduate for a commission as an officer in the United States
Army, United States Army Reserve, or the United States Army Nation Guard.
Qualifying for a commission added an extra dimension to the student's employment
capability in that upon graduation from college, the student has either military or
civilian employment options.

The course of study offered in military science is designed not only to prepare the
student for service as a commissioned officer in the United States Army but also to
provide knowledge and practical experience in leadership and management that
will be useful in any facet of society. Male and female students are eligible for
enrollment. Each student is provided with a working knowledge of the organization
and functioning of the Department of Defense and the role of the U.S. Army in the
national security and world affairs.

The course of study pursued by students during their freshman and sophomore
years is the basic military science course and/or related skill activities. The course
of study normally pursued by students during their junior and senior years is the
advance military science course.

For selection and retention in the advanced course, a student must be physically
qualified, should have maintained above average military and academic standing
and must demonstrate a potential for further leadership development.

Graduates of the advanced course are commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the
United States Army, United States Army Reserve, or the United States National
Guard in the branch of service most appropriate to their interests and academic
achievements, consistent with the needs of the Army. Regardless of the branch
selected, all officers will receive valuable experience in management, logistics and
administration. Graduates may be granted a delay in reporting for duty for gradu-
ate study if requested. A small number of outstanding students are designated
Distinguished Military Graduates and are offered commissions in the Regular Army
each year.

Basic Military Service

Basic military science courses involve six quarters during the freshmen and
sophomore years. The student learns leadership and management and acquires
essential background knowledge of customs and traditions, weapons, map reading,
tactics and survival. Equally important, these courses have the objective of develop-
ing the student's leadership, self-discipline, integrity and sense of responsibility.

800

Advanced Military Science

The genera] objective of this course of instruction is to produce junior officers who
by education, training, attitude and inherent qualities are suitable for continued
development as officers in the Army. There are two avenues available for the stu-
dent to be eligible for entry into the advanced program and obtain a commission as

8 second lieutenant:

(a) satisfactory completion of, or placement credit for, the basic program basic
ROTC and meeting the entrance and retention requirements established by
the Army

lb) to be an active duty veteran or junior ROTC cadet graduate eligible for place-
ment credit.

Placement

Veterans entering the military science programs will receive appropriate place-
ment credit for their active military service. Students who have completed military
science courses in military preparatory schools or junior colleges may be given
appropriate credit. Students with at least three years of high school ROTC may also
be granted placement credit. Placement credit or six quarters of basic military science,
or equivalent thereof, is a prerequisite to admission into the advanced program.

Alternate Programs for Admittance

Students with two years of coursework remaining, but who have not completed
basic military science are eligible to be considered for selection into the advanced
military science program. Those selected under the provisions of the two-year
advanced program must satisfactorily complete a basic summer camp of six weeks
duration prior to entering the advanced program. Students attending the basic
camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky, are paid at active army rates and given a travel
allowance from their home to camp and return. Attendance at Basic Camp is volun-
tary and incurs no military obligation until the student returns and decides to sign
a contract to pursue a commission.

Participating Students and Aliens

Some students and aliens may participate in the Advanced Course classes pro-
vided they meet the requirements outlined in Army Regulations. The receive no
subsistence allowance and may only participate in classroom instruction. For spe-
cific details on this program, see the Department Head before registering for a course.

Advanced Summer Camp

Students contracting to pursue the advanced courses are required to attend
advanced summer camp, normally between their junior and senior academic years
at Fort Bragg, N.C.. Students attending this camp are paid at active army rates and
given travel allowance from their home to camp and return.

30 1

Financial Assistance

All contracted advanced cadets are paid a subsistence allowance of $150 per
month while enrolled in the advanced course.

Scholarship Program

Each year the U.S. Army awards two- and three-year scholarships to outstanding
young men and women participating in the Army ROTC program who desire
careers as Army officers. The Army pays tuition, fees, books and laboratory
expenses incurred by the scholarship student. In addition, each student receives
$150 per month for the academic year. Individuals desiring to compete for these
scholarships should apply to the Military Science Department.

Army ROTC Uniforms, Books and Supplies

Students enrolling in the Army ROTC program will be issued U.S. Army uni-
forms, books and supplies by the Military Science Department. No fees or deposits
of any kind will be required. Uniforms must be returned before commissioning or
upon disenrollment from the ROTC program.

(MIL) Courses

The basic course of six quarters duration consists of two hours of classroom work
per week. In the classroom, the student acquires knowledge of military leadership
weapons, tactics, basic military skills, and physical fitness. In field training exer-
cises, potential for leadership is progressively developed.

The advanced course consists of three hours of classroom work and one hour of
leadership laboratory per week. During the spring quarter prior to advanced camp
the student will enroll in MIL 323 to prepare for attendance at Advance Camp.
History 201 (American Military History) is normally taken the winter quarter of the
senior year. The coursework during the advanced course emphasizes techniques of
management and leadership and the fundamentals and dynamics of the military team.
Field training exercises provide the student with applied leadership experiences.

Professional Military Education (PME) Requirements

The Army's Professional Military Education requirements are established to pro-
vide cadets with the training and enrichment necessary to successfully compete in
the Army. In addition to completing a baccalaureate degree, the cadet must com-
plete an undergraduate course from each of the five designated fields of study. The
five PME designated fields of study are listed below and the courses that meet the
cadet command PME requirements:

ADMISSION

The Colege Placement Examination must be taken by all prospective students
who meet the following criteria: (1) have a composite Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT)
score of less than 750 or above 750 but less than 350 on either the verbal or math
section; or (2) have an American College Test (ACT) composite score of less than 19;
and/or (3) have not met the high school College Preparatory Curriculum (CPC)
requirements. College-wide cut off scores on the aforementioned tests, in conjunc-
tion with other standard and locally constructed instruments, are utilized to deter-
mine exemption from placement into the Learning Support courses. CPE cut off
scores for exemption and exit, effective Fall, 1988, are English - 75, Math - 75,
Reading - 75.

LEARNING SUPPORT PROGRAM

The Learning Support Program is designed for entering students who have
demonstrated marked deficiencies in English, Reading, and Mathematics.

A "Learning Support Student" is any student whose score on either portion of the
Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) was lower than the passing score given
above. Such students must take appropriate Learning Support courses (courses
numbered 097 or 098).

Every Learning Support student is assigned to, and advised by a faculty member
in the Division of Learning Support until the student exits all learning support
courses. When the student exits all Learning Support courses, a change of advisor
form is initiated by the Division of Learning Support advisor and sent by the stu-
dent to the dean of the school in which the student plans to pursue a major.

Third and fourth quarter Learning Support students are required to enroll for a
maximum of thirteen credits unless they need all three learning support courses.
Students who are fifth quarter and beyond in the Learning Support Program are
required to enroll only in those learning support courses for which they have not
exited and may not enroll in any college level courses.

The philosophy of the Learning Support Program is that although there are slow
learners and fast learners, when provided with favorable learning conditions, most
students can successfully adapt to the academic challenges of the college classroom.
The Program supports and is committed to the contention that "high risk" students
possess strengths that should be developed and weaknesses that can be remediated.
In order to facilitate this growth and development, each of the three components of
Savannah State's Program of Learning Support has created objectives designed to pro-
mote the overall mission of the Program and the College. They are (1) to strengthen

506

the reading skills of conditionally admitted students; (2) to strengthen the mathe-
matical skills of conditionally admitted students; and (3) to strengthen the oral and
written communicative skills of conditionally admitted students. These objectives
are based on the desire of Learning Support faculty and staff to support the stu-
dents' pursuit of academic excellence and life survival skills.

A student shall not be allowed more than four quarters or four attempts to reme-
diate deficiencies. A student who fails to exit successfully any one or more courses
within the four-quarters or four-attempts limitation shall be excluded from
Savannah State College and any other unit of the University System of Georgia for
one quarter. This exclusion does not include the summer quarter. A student who
fails to complete all Learning Support requirements within one quarter of re-entry,
after the first exclusion, shall be excluded for one year (four quarters).

A student may not accumulate more than 30 hours of degree credit before finish-
ing his Learning Support requirements. Any student who does accumulate 30 credit
hours or more and who has not successfully completed the required Learning
Support courses may enroll only in Learning Support courses until the Learning
Support requirements are successfully completed.

No degree credit will be awarded for Learning Support course work. Institutional
credit only will be awarded.

Entrance and Exit Requirements

A student who earns a scaled score below 70 on the required entry level
Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) must enroll in the corresponding 097
course. To pass an 097 course, a student must maintain a C average or better
throughout the quarter.

A student who earns a scaled score of 70-74 on the required entry level CPE must
enroll in the corresponding 098 course. An 098 student who maintains a C average
or better throughout the quarter is eligible to sit for the exit examination(s).

To exit mathematics or reading, a student must earn a scaled score of 75 or better
on the CPE. To exit English, a student must pass the Exit Essay and must earn a
scaled score of 75 or better on the CPE.

Any fourth quarter student who passes an exit level course and fails the CPE will
be given one opportunity to retest at the end of that quarter. Any student who
passes a Learning Support course, but who fails the CPE by five points will be given
one opportunity to retest at the end of that quarter.

The following Final Grades will be issued: A, B, C, D, S, IP, F, W, V.

Final Grades

S (Satisfactory), Student met all learning support requirements and is recom-
mended for a corresponding college level course;

A,B,C An 097 student progresses to the corresponding 098 course for further
remediation. An 098 student progreses to the exit Collegiate Placement
Examination (CPE).

D (Failure), Student passed 098 course objectives but failed the CPE;

F (Failure), Student never attended the class;

307

V (Audit), This symbol indicates that a student has been given permission to
sit for a course without receiving quality points or grade other than "V".
Students may not transfer from audit to credit or vice versa. Students
may register, however, on a credit basis for a course that has previously
been audited. Auditing students must complete Auditor and Course
Planning Forms to Register.

IP (Insufficient Progress), Student showed insufficient progress and must
repeat the course, or student met course objectives but did not sit for the
CPE (Grade will be modified if student subsequently sits for the CPE);
and

W (Withdrew), Student withdrew before midquarter due to an emergency.

SUMMER SESSIONS

Special summer session courses are available to Learning Support students of
the College. Students may exit Learning Support courses during the summer
quarter.

1. The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) has been established to assist prin-
cipal investigators and program directors in the preparation and submission
of proposals and in the administration of research grants, contracts, and ser-
vice projects. The office was initially organized in 1986 as the Office of
Sponsored Research (OSR) but was not funded by the institution. The present
office is the result of a grant funded by the USPHS for capacity building at
HBCU's in the acquisition and administration of sponsored programs. As
such, it is the result of a cooperative agreement between the Federal govern-
ment and Savannah State College to establish a demonstration project which
will serve as a model for other HBCU's in grant administration.

are made by the governor, subject to confirmation by the State Senate. Regular
terms of board members are seven years.

The chairman, the vice chairman, and other officers of the board are elected by
the members of the board. The chancellor, who is not a member of the board, is the
chief executive officer of the board and the chief administrative officer of the

University System.

The overall programs and services of the university system are offered through
three major components: instruction; public service/continuing education; research.

Instruction consists of programs of study leading toward degrees, ranging from
the associate (two-year) level to the doctoral level, and certificates.

Requirements for admission of students to instructional programs at each institu-
tion are determined, pursuant to policies to the Board of Regents, by the institution.
The board establishes minimum academic standards and leaves to each institution
the prerogative to establish higher standards. Applications for admission should be
addressed in all cases to the institutions.

A core curriculum, consisting of freshman and sophomore years of study for stu-
dents whose educational goal is a degree beyond the associate level, is in effect at
the universities, four-year colleges, and two-year colleges. This curriculum requires
90 quarter-credit hours, including 60 in general education humanities, mathe-
matics and natural sciences, and social sciences and 30 in the student's chosen
major area of study. It facilitates the transfer of freshman and sophomore degree
credits within the University System.

Public service/continuing education consists of non-degree activities,
primarily, and special types of college-degree-credit courses. The non-degree activi-
ties are of several types, including short courses, seminars, conferences, lectures,
and consultative and advisory services, in a large number of areas of interest.
Typical college degree-credit public service/continuing education courses are those
offered through extension center programs and teacher education consortiums.

Research encompasses investigations conducted primarily for discovery and
application of knowledge. These investigations include clearly defined projects in
some cases, non-programmatic activities in other cases. They are conducted on cam-
puses at many off-campus locations.

The research investigations cover a large number and a large variety of matters
related to the educational objectives of the institutions and to general societal needs.

Most of the research is conducted through the universities; however, some of it is
conducted through several of the four-year and two-year colleges.

The policies of the Board of Regents for the government, management, and con-
trol of the University System and the administrative actions of the chancellor pro-
vide autonomy of high degree for each institution. The executive head of each

311

institution is the president, whose election is recommended by the chancellor and
approved by the Board.

The University System Advisory Council, with 34 committees, engenders contin-
ual Systemwide dialogue on major academic and administrative matters of all
types. It also make recommendations to the chancellor for transmittal to the Board
of Regents as appropriate, regarding academic and administrative aspects of opera-
tion of the system.

The advisory council consists of the chancellor, the vice chancellor, and all presi-
dents as voting members; and it includes other officials and staff members of the
institutions as nonvoting members. The advisory council's 21 academic committees
and 13 administrative committees are made up of representativves from the institu-
tions. The committees dealing with matters of university-systemwide application
include, typically, at least one member from each institution.

State appropriations for the University System are requested by, and are made
to, the Board of Regents. Allocations of the appropirations are made by the - is allo-
cated by the board for instruction.
