VENANGO CAMPUS
Clarion State College operates an off-campus center in Oil City, Pennsylvania. Clarion's Venango Campus, now owned by the Com- monwealth of Pennsylvania, is a tribute to the civic spiiit of the people of the Oil City-Franklin area who supported and financed the venture. The Campus is located on a sixty-two acre wooded area on West First Street overlooking the Allegheny River.
Staffed with full-time faculty members of Clarion State College, Venango Campus offers students a convenient, inexpensive oppor- tunity for two years of their college education. Courses at the branch campus are identical with those offered on main campus. In addition, Venango Campus now offers the curriculum leading to an Associate Degree of Science in Nursing.
VENANGO CLASSROOM BUILDING is an attractive, modern building containing classrooms, laboratories, library, recreational room, and college offices.
MONTGOMERY HALL, a privately owned residence hall lo- cated on the Venango Campus, provides housing for 105 women students and 105 men students. A dining hall is included in the building.
STUDENT AFFAIRS
Clarion State College is concerned not only with the academic development of young men and women but also with their develop- ment as mature, self-confident, socially competent adults. To assist this development, various student personnel services are provided. These services enable those enrolled in the college to perform more adequately as students and to derive benefit from the academic cultural, social, and recreational opportunities offered by the campus environment. In addition, every administrative and teaching member of the faculty is charged with the respon- sibility of assisting students to select and achieve goals consistent with the ideals of a college community.
STUDENT PERSONNEL SERVICES HOUSING SERVICES
Students at Clarion State College live in residence halls, fra- ternity houses, facilities in the community, or their own homes. All freshmen and sophomore students are required to live in resi- dence halls unless commuting from their parents' homes. Upon written application to the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs, exceptions to this policy may be granted. Student residence re- quirements are subject to annual review.
10
It is the desire of the college to have students representing all creeds, races, and ways of life living in the residence halls. In order to achieve this and, at the same time, comply with the Pennsyl- vania Fair Education Practices Act, all housing assignments are made without regard to race, religion, color, ancestry, or national origin. Within each residence hall, there is a cross section of stu- dents representing most aspects of highly divergent student body, and the student is exposed to living and working with all types of people. Hall and roommate preferences stated on housing appli- cations are given consideration in making assignments and are honored whenever possible.
The contract for assignment to residence halls is for an entire semester unless otherwise specified. The only grounds for an automatic release from the contract are withdrawal from college, graduation, or student teaching. Students who marry during the period of the contract are usually released upon request, but it cannot be guaranteed that these or any other requests for releases will be granted either in Commonwealth or privately-owned facilities.
Housing and food service fees are payable at the same time that other college fees become due. Refunds cannot be made unless the student withdraws from college for medical reasons properly certified by the attending physician.
A separate housing and food service application must be sub- mitted for each year. All students returning to residence halls must submit a housing application card at the announced time. Housing information will be mailed to new students prior to registration. All housing application cards must be accompanied by a nonrefundable deposit.
Housing and food services are provided only on a combined basis for students living in the residence halls. Housing and food service contracts may not be transferred or assigned. The meal ticket may be used only by the student to whom it is issued, and a room may be occupied only by the student to whom it is assigned.
Student rooms in the residence halls are furnished with beds, desks, chairs, dressers, closets, pillows, and linen. Students should plan to furnish blankets, study lamps, and towels. Many students also provide curtains, bed spreads, and small throw rugs. Radios and record players are permitted if they are operated with due consideration for others.
General residence hall rules and regulations are contained in the Student Handbook; in addition, specific rules applicable to
u
individual residence halls will be made available to each resident when he moves into a hall. Current rules and regulations have been estabhshed and are enforced by the governing bodies of the residence halls.
A Hmited list of housing available in the community is maintained by the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs.
FOOD SERVICE
Wholesome, well-balanced meals are provided in Chandler, Forest Manor, and Montgomery Dining Halls by Servomation- Mathias, Inc. All students living in residence halls are required to eat their meals in a dining hall. Students not living in residence halls are invited to eat their meals in Chandler Hall on a semester contract basis.
STUDENT DEVELOPMENT
Clarion State College recognizes that there are applicants for admission whose success in college is jeopardized because of academic and/or cultural disadvantages. As a result of this recognition the College has established a program to assist students who may have problems of adjustment. This program is supervised by the Director of Educational Opportunity for Student Develop- ment. Students are identified for this program by an evaluation of high school achievement and SAT scores. The program provides for individual and group counseling, reading and study skills in- struction, tutorial services, and close academic advisement.
STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE
In order to ease the financial burden which could result from serious or extended illness or injury. Clarion State College requires all students to participate in a group insurance plan which covers the student wherever the illness or accident may occur. A waiver privilege will be extended to those students who have private coverage equal or better than the coverage of the group insurance plan offered. A pohcy may be for a full twelve months from September 1, to August 31, or for the second semester, January 11, to August 31.
COUNSELING SERVICE
The Counseling Center offers professional services related to educational and vocational goals as well as to problems of personal, social, and emotional adjustment. The services of the Counseling Center are available at no charge to all regularly enrolled Clarion State College students.
Most students request counseling on their own initiative. Some,
12
however, need encouragement from others to seek counsehng as- sistance. These students may be referred by instructors, academic advisers, residence hall staflF, administrators, parents, or fellow students. Those in need of counseling services are not just the marginal or immature students; frequently the exceptionally able and conscientious students require the benefits of professional help in the counseling setting.
In keeping with accepted professional practice, counseling con- tacts with students are confidential. No infonnation is released to oflBcers of the administration, faculty members, parents, graduate schools, governmental officials, or other outside agencies without the student's written authorization in advance. Rare exceptions to the above policy may occur when, in the counselor's professional opinion, there is a clear, immediate threat to the life or welfare of the student himself, to other students, or to the community at large.
For students who need psychiatric evaluation and/or therapy, the Counseling Center maintains a referral service with the Venango County Mental Health Center in Oil City.
HEALTH SERVICE
Recognizing that good physical and mental health is important to the educational process, the college provides for the protection and development of the health of its students. The Edward J. Keeling Health Sersdces Center is located at the corner of Wood Street and Wilson Avenue and is staffed with resident nurses 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
College physicians maintain regularly scheduled office hours Monday through Friday. Additional visits to infirmary patients are made as required. When ill, students are expected to make every eflFort to visit the Health Center during regular clinic hours.
An infirmary is available to all full-time students requiring im- portant care. Neither the college physicians nor nurses can make house calls, and only under emergency circumstances are dormitory calls made.
If hospitalization other than that provided in the Keeling Health Center is indicated, parents will be contacted immediately in order that their wishes may be known. In any cases requiring transporta- tion to a hospital, an ambulance will be used at the expense of the individual involved. Other related expenses, not covered by stu- dent insurance programs, are tlie responsibility of the student.
PLACEMENT SERVICE
The College Placement Service assists all Clarion State College
13
graduates in obtaining positions for which their college program has quahfied them. Vacancy notices are received from public schools, government agencies, business, and industry and are re- layed to those who are registered with the Placement Service. Assistance is given college students and personnel oflBcials in arranging for employment intemews. Placement credentials are prepared and distributed, upon request, to prospective employers to support the candidacy of registrants. Students' competence in their areas of speciahzation, their conduct, and their general de- meanor are presented in a professional manner by the Placement Service for review by prospective employers. A listing of graduates, including their address, phone number, and area of concentration, is prepared and mailed to prospective employers to facilitate the graduate in obtaining a position. Any student who does not wish his name on the list may have it removed upon request.
The Placement Service is a free service. Graduates of former years are served, as well as current seniors, and all are urged to maintain their contacts with the Placement Sendee as a means of facilitating professional promotion.
Counseling and guidance in placement and careers are provided for all registrants. Students are encouraged to call personally at the Placement Office. Following graduation, placement matters are handled by telephone communication or mail.
All communications should be addressed to the Director of Placement.
PARKING AND AUTOMOBILE REGULATIONS
All provisions of the Vehicle Code of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as supplemented by college regulations will be strictly enforced on the Clarion State College Campus. Authority for such enforcement rests with the Director of Security.
All students who possess, maintain, or ox^erate a motor vehicle, shall register such vehicle annually with the Office of the Director of Security. Registration must be completed during the academic registration period.
1. Except for commuting students whose residence is beyond the Clarion Borough limits, only seniors are permitted to operate or park a motor vehicle on campus or in college super- vised parking areas while attending Clarion State College.
2. Students qualifying for campus parking privileges will be issued a decal indicating that his privilege has been granted and will be assigned to a specific parking area.
3. Any student acquiring the use of a motor vehicle after the
14
regular registration period must register the vehicle within twenty-four hours with the OflBce of the Director of Security. Motor vehicles must be registered even when their use is intermittent rather then regular.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Student activities of Clarion are viewed as another means of self-development; therefore, tlie responsibility for the success of any activity or organization must rest with the students involved. As a result of this policy, ample opportunity exists for gaining experience in leadership and self-government.
STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Through participation in student government, students have an opportunity to gain experience in democratic living and self- government. All students become members of the Clarion Students' Association upon their initial enrollment at Clarion and, thereby, are eligible to participate in the election of the Student Senate, the governing body of the Association. The Student Senate serves as a co-ordinating body for student activities and as a means of communication between students, faculty, and administration.
STUDENT SENATE is responsible for expenditure of student activity fees through allocations to the various activities and organizations. The Senate has an important relationship to other Association operations such as the College Book Center and the Student Centers. It also appoints student representatives to various standing committees of the college.
Other opportunities for self-government are provided through the governing boards of the Association of Women Students, Pan- hellenic Council, Inter-Fraternity Council, College Center Board, Men's Inter-hall Council, Women's Inter-hall Council, and resi- dence hall councils and boards.
The full utilization of this leadership is a very necessary element of success in any college or university, and the maximum develop- ment of the leadership potential of each student must be con- sidered an important part of the educational process. It is a well estabhshed fact that even though a college ma)' have an excellent facult)'' and physical plant, it cannot attain true excellence unless it also has a capable and energetic student body able and willing to accept the responsibilties inherent in leadership.
ATHLETIC PROGRAM INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETIC competition plays an im-
15
portant role in the lives of Clarion State College students. Clarion State College is affiliated with both the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the National Association of Intercollegiate Athle- tics. The present athletic program for men includes varsity and freshman teams in football, basketball, baseball, wrestling, riflery, golf, track, swimming, and cross country. Plans are developing to add gy-mnastics and soccer to the existing program.
The Womens Intercollegiate Athletic Activities include basket- ball, gymnastics, speed swimming, synchronized swimming, and volleyball. This program is under tlie jurisdiction of the Division of Girls and Womens Sports, American Association of Health, Phy- sical Education, and Recreation.

The football field is surrounded by an all-weather track. The facility also includes a baseball diamond and field, practice football fields, and parking areas for several hundred cars. The new Gymnasium-Natatorium seating approximately four thousand spectators, provides year-round physical education and athletic activities and services.
INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS are provided for men and women students by funds from student activity fees allocated by the Student Senate. The program is planned and supervised by the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation. Intra- mural competition is provided in touch football, soccer, volleyball, squash, handball, chess, bowling, table tennis, basketball, bridge, "500," wrestling, badminton, archery, billiards, swimming, softball, track and field, water basketball, golf, paddleball, and other areas where interest is sufficient.

The objectives of this club are to aid in the maintenance of pleasant relationships with other colleges and in the promotion of a high standard of conduct by members of the athletic teams.
CULTURAL PROGRAM
In addition to full utilization of the numerous performing groups composed of members of the student body and faculty, the College
16
Center Board each year coordinates a series of nationally known personalities and groups. The program is arranged by the Cultural Events area of the Center Board composed of student, faculty, staff, and alumni representatives.
MUSIC PROGRAM
CLARION STATE COLLEGE CONCERT CHOIR. Member- ship in the Concert Choir is by audition only. Auditions are held at the beginning of each semester, and membership is open to any student who can satisfactorily pass the audition examination. The Concert Choir has a long and distinguished history as a performing group.
THE MADRIGAL SINGERS is a highly select group made up of advanced students who possess the technique and voice which are vital to this speciahzed area of music. This group is a flexible one and varies in number from twelve to sixteen voices, depending upon the compositions to be performed. The hterature presented by the Madrigal Singers represents some of the finest music ever written for voice.
THE LABORATORY BAND is a jazz ensemble of approximately twenty instrumentahsts who desire to study jazz literature through performance of representative works. Members are selected by audition with the conductor. The Laboratory Band presents two formal concerts each year on the college campus and performs for high school and community audiences in tours throughout Western Pennsylvania.
MARCHING BAND. Ranked as one of the finest college bands in Pennsylvania, the Clarion State College Marching Golden Eagles has continued its traditionally outstanding musicianship and march- ing finesse as the membership has increased.
The ideals of the band are geared first to develop musicianship and marching precision; second, to inspire and encourage academic achievement; third, to develop character; and fourth, to develop outstanding leadership abihty.
SYMPHONIC BAND. The Clarion State CoHege Symphonic Band is a skilled ensemble of ninety wind and percussion players. Membership is determined by audition. Placement in the band is dependent upon the outcome of the audition and particular in- strumentation needs.
Purposes of the Symphonic Band are to perform literature of the highest aesthetic value, with an emphasis on original works for band; to attain perfection in performance abiHty through rigid
17
requirements for individual musicianship and advanced playing technique; and to provide a means for artistic expression through participation in a distinctive medium of musical expression.
The repertoire of the band is selected from all periods and styles of composition and is designed to meet a variety of program respon- sibilities.
The Symphonic Band is featured in two major concerts each year and an Annual Spring Tour. Guest artists and clinicians ap- pearing with the band in recent years include Rafael Mendez, Bob Lowry, Warren Covington, James Burke, Frank Arsenault, Roy Bums, James W. Dunlop, William Bell, and Warren Mercer.
THE BRASS CHOIR is a highly specialized organization offering outstanding students an opportunity to study and perform chamber music for brass. The repertoire is varied with a concentration on early music and music of the twentieth century. Exactitude of intonation, rhythmic precision, phrasing, and proper methods of attack are stressed. The number of students in the Brass Choir will vary somewhat from semester to semester depending upon the instrumentation of the compositions to be performed. Participation is available by audition only.
WOODWIND AND BRASS ENSEMBLES are organized, de- pending on the talent and instrumentation which are available. Membership in these groups is voluntary.
TAU BETA SIGMA is a National Honorary Band Sorority on the Clarion Campus which received its charter in May of 1970.

concertos with students and faculty as soloists. Other playing op- portunities are provided on occasion to perform with the choir, opera workshop, and the all-college musical. Membership is open to all in consultation with the conductor.
PUBLICATIONS PROGRAM
THE CLARION CALL is the weekly college newspaper. Pub- lished by the Clarion Students' Association, it follows regular news- paper style and format. StaflF participation is essential for students with an interest in entering the field of journalism or publications' advisement. Prior experience in journalism is helpful but certainly not necessary for success. Certain editorial and business positions received financial remuneration.
THE CLARION, which is published under the guidance of the English Department, presents a channel of creative communication for those students whose interests and talents are in this area. This publication is the culmination of the year's best in creative writing by Clarion State College students.
THE SEQUELLE is the college yearbook. The stafiF is made up of students from all classes and curricula and truly represents all interests on campus. Staff membership is invaluable to the student who plans to teach, advise, or work in the area of journalism or photography. Professional help is available to the staff as they plan, write, and create the book.
RELIGIOUS PROGRAM
THE CAMPUS MINISTRY is an ecumenical community spon- sored by Catholic and Protestant Churches organized to provide a ministry to the people of Clarion State College. Its special concern is to help develop in the college the kind of community wherein a person can ask questions and find answers that will make his life meaningful. The Ministry is that life happens where people touch.
The Ministry prides itself on being open to all people and all views while at the same time maintaining its own rehgious integrity. Traditional and contemporary forms of worship and celebration are offered thi'ough Folk Mass, The Celebration Troupe, tlie Churches of Clarion, and Campus Crusade for Christ. The work of the Campus Ministry is the effort of students, faculty, administrators, campus ministers, local church pastors, and many others.
SOCIAL PROGRAM The purpose of the extensive and varied activities program on
19
campus is to make students college life richer and more enjoyable. Social functions are financed from allocations from student activity funds made by the Student Senate and are managed by the College Center Board.
Among the major events are Homecoming, Spring Weekend, Miss CSC Pageant, Arts Festival, Coffee House Circuit, and pops concerts. Additional activities such as movies, dances, talent shows, and various cultural events are programmed regularly throughout the year.

STUDY ABROAD-INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION
Clarion State College is a member of the Regional Council for International Education, founded in 1959 as a unique cooperative effort to strengthen the international phases of education. The Council, composed of over 30 colleges and universities in Pennsyl- vania, West Virginia, and Ohio, sponsors continuing faculty enrich- ment programs, exchange lectureships, visiting scholars from abroad who spend substantial periods on member college campuses, and an undergraduate study-year abroad in social sciences in Basel, Switzerland, and in the humanities in Verona, Italy.
The Basel center emphasizes work in the area of modern Euro- pean history and international affairs. Classes are conducted at the Regional Council Study Center by an instructional staff drawn primarily from the nearby University of Basel with a few Americans acting as administrators. Although these classes are taught in English, all students live with Swiss families, as proficiency in Ger- man is one aim of the program.
26
The Verona center offers the opportunity to delve into the hu- manistic aspects of the Western tradition and concentrates on the areas of history, the arts, and hterature. Courses are conducted in Enghsh, but all students live with Veronese families and pro- ficiency in Italian is one goal of the program. As at Basel, the program is administered by Americans with an instructional staff drawn from the University of Verona and other institutions. There is no language prerequisite for either program.
Other study aboard opportunities are also available to students through the Council. For additional information contact the Dean of Liberal Arts.
THE 1973 SUMMER SESSION
The Summer Session is maintained for the benefit of regular college students as well as for teachers in service.

WITHDRAWALS
All class withdrawals must be made through the Office of the Dean of Academic Affairs. Classes from which a student withdraws during the first two weeks of a semester will not appear on his record. Withdrawals between the end of the second and sixth weeks may be made without penalty. From the beginning of the seventh week of the semester through the end of the ninth week, courses from which the student withdrawals will appear on the student's record a "W" plus the grade he was making at the time of withdrawal. A grade of "W-E" will be used in calculating the stu- dent's quality point average. After the beginning of the tenth week of a semester or during half of a semester session, a course from which a student withdraws shall be finally reported with a grade of "E." Exceptions may be made for withdrawals due to extenu- ating circumstances such as illness or some other unavoidable occurrence.
30
If a student is on probation at the time of withdrawal from all classes and the withdrawal is after the twelfth week of the semes- ter, he will not be permitted to return for the following semester unless the withdrawal is based on extenuating circumstances.
If a withdrawal is not made through the office of the Dean of Academic Affairs a failing grade will be recorded for that course.
Any student who withdraws from the college either during or at the end of a semester must notify the Dean of Academic Affairs of his intention to withdraw and the reason for withdrawal. This is necessary for completion of the student's permanent record. Failure to comply with this regulation wiU constitute an unofficial with- drawal and may affect the student's chances of future readmission or his obtaining an honorable dismissal.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS
Student progress is reported twice each semester. At the end of the first six weeks, each staff member submits to the Registrar a report of all students doing unsatisfactory work in his classes. These reports are recorded and then passed on to the advisers who give them to the students. The advisers take this opportunity to analyze with the students any problems they may have and to help them improve their study habits or correct other difficulties which may have contributed to their low scholarship.
GRADING SYSTEM
A indicates superior attainment.
B indicates attainment above average.
C indicates average attainment.
D indicates attainment below average.
E indicates failure.
Inc indicates incomplete work.
W indicates withdrawal from a course.
Inc (incomplete) is not used unless a student has been in at- tendance through a semester or session. It indicates that the work of a student is incomplete and that the final grade is being with- held until the student fulfills all of the requirements of the course. It is used only when conditions and circumstances warrant and when evidence is presented to justify its being given.
All incomplete grades must be removed by the end of the follow- ing semester or they become failures.
Credit-No Record Courses. After a student has earned a minimum of 30 semester hours of credit and if he is in good academic stand-
31
ing, he may schedule a maximum of 6 courses or 18 semester hours for Credit-No Record. One such course may be taken each semes- ter or summer session. Decision concerning the Credit-No Record option for a course must be made within one week after midterm comments have been sent to advisers, the first four days of any six weeks summer session, and the first two days of any three weeks summer session. Satisfactory work in a Credit-No Record course shall be shown on the grade report as "Cr," with no record and no credit for less than satisfactory work. Satisfactory work is defined as the equivalent of a "C" grade or better under the letter grading system currently in use by the college. Should a student desire to have a Credit-No Record course changed from "Cr" to a letter grade, he must retake the course. Credit-No Record courses are counted in determining the course load for a semester.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS
Scholarship policy at Clarion State College is formulated by the Committee on Admissions, Academic, and Athletic Standards, which is a sub-committee of the Faculty Senate.
Scholastic standing of students is determined on the basis of a quahty point system in which a grade of "A" equals 4 quahty points per semester hour; "B" equals 3; "C" equals 2; "D" equals 1; and "E" equals 0. The number of quality points earned in a single course for one semester is determined by multiplying the quahty point value of the course grade by the number of semester hours in the course; thus, a grade of "A" in a three semester hour course has a quality point value of 12. A student's quality point average at any specific time is determined by dividing the total number of quahty points earned in all courses by the total number of semester hours of credit attempted. For example, if a student earns a total of 30 quality points from 15 semester hours of course work in a single semester, his quality point average for the semester is 2.00.
At the end of each semester, a student's quality point average is calculated for that semester and also for all the course work he has taken up to and including the semester just completed. The latter is known as the cumulative quality point average.
In order to be in good academic standing, a baccalaureate stu- dent must earn a minimum quality point average of 1.50 his fii'st semester; 1.75 in his second and tliird semesters; and 2.00 in his fourth semester and thereafter. His cumulative quality point aver- age should also be 2.00 by the end of the fourth semester.
If at the end of any semester a student has fallen below a re- quired standard in either his semester or cumulative average, he is placed on academic probation for one full semester, eflFective the
32
first semester of attendance immediately following. If he fails to achieve a satisfactory average dm-ing the probationary semester, he is placed on academic suspension for one full semester, eflFective the first semester of attendance immediately following. However, a student on academic probation who achieves a satisfactory semester average but does not achieve a satisfactory cumulative average is continued on probationary status for an additional semester.
Scholarship policy for two year programs requires that a student earn a minimum quahty point average of 1.75 his first semester and a 2.00 his second semester and thereafter in order to be in satisfactory academic standing. His cumulative quality point av- erage should be 2.00 by the end of the second semester.
Students who are placed on probation or suspended are informed by letter. A copy of the letter is also sent to the student's parent, guardian, husband, or wife.
Teacher Education students, in order to qualify for student teaching, must have a quahty point average of at least 2.00 in all fields in which they are seeking certification and a cumulative quality point average of 2.00 for all their academic work. They must also have completed satisfactorily the general education requirement in Enghsh. Students having six or more semester hours of reported failure in a field of certification or in professional education courses shall not be assigned to student teaching.
All candidates for undergraduate degrees must have a cumula- tive average of 2.00 for all academic work and must have met the general education requirement in English in order to qualify for graduation.
All scholastic standards noted above are subject to change by the college.
UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS The Associate Degree program in Nursing at Clarion is a two year course of study that is technical in nature.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
OBJECTIVES OF THE CURRICULUM
The curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration is designed to assist students in arriving at a better understanding of the complex relationships inherent in the rapidly changing world of business, industry, and government; to provide educational experiences that will help students develop their potentialities for leadership and service; to help stimulate the growth of students as individuals and citizens; and to provide a qualitative environment in which educational enrichment can take place.
Supplemented by broad general requirements in the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences, the business cur- riculum offers a well balanced program of courses in business administration which not only will help to prepare students for careers in business, industry, and government but also will give preparatory training to students who plan to further their educa- tion through graduate study in business, economics, or law.
Although there is opportunity to develop some depth in certain areas, such as accounting, economics, marketing, and general busi- ness administration, the emphasis in the program is not on deep specialization but rather on the development of analytical ability, intellectual toughness, imagination, the ability to communicate ideas, and adaptability, so that technological change does not ren- der the education obsolete.

Admission to the business administration program is governed by the admissions poHcy presented on pages 28-30 of this catalog.
All fees and other charges for the business administration pro- gram can be found on pages 36-42.

LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES
OBJECTIVES AND CHARACTERISTICS
The undergraduate program in the arts and sciences at Clarion State College has two fundamental purposes:
1. To provide the student with a broad general education that will enable him to adapt to the complexities of the world in which he must live; that will give him an understanding and appreciation of the intellectual, cultural, and moral forces which have shaped our world; and that will engender in him an intellectual awareness which will make him strive for educational growth throughout his life.
2. To give the student the depth of knowledge in a discipline that will enable him to enter a graduate or professional school or that will provide him with the proper foundations for a career in government, social service, or industiy.
To help achieve these objectives the programs of the candidate for the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degrees are divided into three categories: (1) General Education. He completes a series of general education requirements in the Humanities (Eng- lish, music, art, language, etc. ) , the Social Sciences ( history, pohti- cal science, economics, etc.), and the Natural Sciences (biology, mathematics, geology, etc. ) ( 2 ) Area of Concentration. He selects an area of concentration in the Humanities, Social Sciences, or National Sciences and Mathem.atics and if he chooses, develops a departmental program in depth with the assistance of an adviser. (3) Electives. He takes a number of electives, in subject areas of his own choice.
Concerned primarily with the intellectual growth, the curriculum in the Liberal Arts and Sciences at Clarion recognizes the in- dividual nature of this growth and the importance of personal ideals and moral values. Consequently, the plan for the curriculum provides a framework within which each student selects his own program with counsel from a faculty adviser.
ADMISSION AND FEES
Admission to the liberal arts and sciences program is governed by the college admissions policy on pages 28-30 of this catalog. The fees for the liberal arts program are the same as those listed on pages 36-42.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS
The scholarship requirements for students in the Liberal Arts
53
and Sciences are identical with those for all other students at Clarion State College and are summarized on pages 31-33.

MAJORS IN THE HUMANITIES
The program for the Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in one of the areas of the Humanities combines a broad requirement in general education with advanced study in at least one of the following disciphnes: Art, Engfish, foreign languages, music, philosophy, speech, and theater arts.
In general, the fields within this area are concerned with two things. First, they are concerned with the fundamental purposes, beliefs, and ideals which underlie all human experience and bind it together. The student, therefore, becomes acquainted in depth with the intellectual endeavors, the aesthetic expressions, and the moral strivings that have defined human experience. Second, the Humanities are concerned with aiding the student to acquire the skills, sensitivities, and canons of taste essential to appraising, judging, and creating within his field.

MAJORS IN THE NATURAL SCIENCES AND MATHEMATICS
The program for a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in one of the areas of the Natural Sciences and Mathematics combines a broad requirement in general education with advanced study in biology, chemistry, earth science, mathematics, and physics.
The natural sciences are concerned with describing, explaining, and predicting events in the natural world. Work taken in the area is, for the most part, quite specialized, each field having de- veloped a broad body of cumulative knowledge and procedures that are rigorous and analytical. Extensive work taken in the sciences, however, brings the student into contact with both mathematics and some of the other fields in this area. Con- sequently, students who elect to concentrate in the Natural Sciences and Mathematics should strive both for deep comprehension in a particular field and for an understanding of the problems, pro- cedures, and results of related fields.
THE PROGRAM
STUDENTS MUST COMPLETE A MINIMUM OF
54 CREDITS IN THE NATURAL SCIENCES

MAJORS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
The program for a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in one of the areas of the Social Sciences combines a broad require- ment in general education with advanced study in economics, geography, history, political science, psychology, or sociology- anthropology.
The Social Sciences area of concentration is concerned with man and his social environment, with human institutions, and with the modes of procedure by which men live, work, and play together. While the various fields that comprise this area have developed methodologies that are appropriate to the groups of institutions and problems they have selected to explore, they are aU so intimately related that competence in a field presupposes a deep familiarity with the area in general.
The particular fields and courses selected will depend largely on the student's interests and needs. Generally, however, each student electing to concentrate in this area should strive: (1) to develop a deep understanding of the problems, principles, and practices of one of the fields in the area; (2) to become competent in the skills that are necessary for various types of work in that field; and (3) to comprehend the interrelationship existing between that field and several others affecting it.

FREE ELECTIVES IN LIBRARY SCIENCE FOR LIBERAL ARTS STUDENTS
Regardless of their concentrations, all liberal arts students have a number of free electives which must be taken to complete the 128 credits required for graduation.
Students vi^ho wish to do so may elect 12 to 18 credits in library science courses as part of their free elective program. By taking the following courses, Hberal arts graduates may be able to quahfy as provisional librarians under the Pennsylvania Public Library Code, and they wiU have the prerequisite courses required to pursue a graduate degree in Hbrary science:
L.S. 257 Basic Reference Sources and Services 3 credits
L.S. 258 Selection of Library Materials 3 credits L.S. 260 Development and Administration
of Libraries 3 credits
L.S. 357 Cataloging and Classification 3 credits
An additional 6 credits may be elected in consultation with the Division of Library Science.
PRE-PROFESSIONAL STUDY IN THE LIBERAL ARTS CURRICULUM
One of the functions of the hberal arts program is to provide pre-professional education for students who plan to enter pro- fessional and graduate schools to prepare for the traditional pro- fessions of the ministry, law, medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, engineering, pharmacy, and college teaching and for the newer professions in business, public administration, social service, and public education. Many professional schools are conducted only at the graduate level and require graduation from college as a condition of entrance. In some cases, the inclusion of specific courses in the undergraduate curriculum is also demanded. In all cases, there is a heavy emphasis on the desirability and necessity of a broad general education.
66
The requirements for entrance into any of the professional and graduate schools may be met within the limits of the Clarion liberal arts program. To be sure that particular requirements of courses and areas of concentration are met, each student should seek the guidance of his faculty adviser as early in his college career as possible. The student should be familiar both with the general requirements of his chosen field and with the particular requirements of the school he plans to attend. Since it is impossible to generalize very much on the subject of pre-professional courses, the following statements on each of the major areas are intended as guides.
Pre-Dental Studies
A minimum of two years of pre-dental education is usually required for entrance into dental school. Three or four years are preferred and some dental schools require them. In general, the specific course requiiements are the same as those of the medical schools. Enghsh, biology, physics, inorganic and organic chemistry must be included.
Pre-Legal Studies
No particular course of study is required in preparation for law school. In general, the pre-law student should select courses with "intellectual content of substantial value," which "develop a cultured, well-read, thoughtful person with a keen analytical mind." The law student needs a command of written and spoken language and a broad understanding of human institutions and values. Recommended majors are English, history, or one of the social sciences.
Law School Admission Test. Many law schools require prospec- tive students to take the Law School Admission Test administered several times a year by the Educational Testing Service. A bulletin of information about this test may be obtained from the Educa- tional Testing Service, Box 955, Princeton, New Jersey 08540. The test itself consists of two parts: (1) the morning test which is designed primarily to predict success in law schools (not neces- sarily in law practice); and (2) the afternoon test of writing ability and general background.
Pre-Medical Studies
Three or four years of undergraduate education are prerequisite to admission to medical schools. This should always include these minimums:
67
English Composition and Literature — 6 semester hours.
Inorganic Chemistry — 8 semester hours.
Organic Chemistry — 4 semester hours.
Physics — 8 semester hours.
Biology or Zoology — 8 semester hours.
Genetics — 3 semester hours.
It is recommended that the following courses should also be included: a modern foreign language, quantitative chemistry, vertebrate anatomy, psychology, philosophy, economics, and other social sciences. Beyond these subjects, students should broaden their cultural and social background with courses in other aca- demic fields.
Medical College Admission Test. Many medical schools require applicants to take the Medical College Admission Test authorized by the Association of American Medical Colleges and prepared and administered by the Psychological Corporation, 304 East 45th Street, New York, New York 10017. This test is given twice each year at selected centers throughout the United States and in some foreign countries. Information about it may be secured from the Psychological Corporation. The test consists of four parts dealing with verbal ability, quantitative ability, general information (non- science fields including art, economics, geography, government, history, literature, music, philosophy, and psychology), and science concepts from basic college courses in biology, chemistry, and physics.
V re-Theological Studies
There is no fixed pattern of pre-seminary studies, but the American Association of Theological Schools recommends that students who are planning to enter a seminary should major in English, philosophy, or history and that their undergraduate pro- grams should include these minimums:
English — literature, composition, speech, and related studies —
at least 6 semesters. History — ancient, modern, and American — at least 3 semesters. Philosophy — orientation in history, content and method — at
least 3 semesters. Natural Sciences — preferably physics, chemistry, and biology —
at least 3 semesters. Social Sciences — psychology, sociology, economics, and political
science — at least 6 semesters.
68
Foreign Language — one of the following: German or French —
at least 4 semesters. Religion — an introduction to the major religious traditions and
theological problems in the context of the principal aspects of
human culture.
Other Requirements
1. A letter from the minister or governing body of the church of which the student is a member, stating that he is in full communion with the church, is of good character, and has the natural talent required for the ministry.
2. A transcript from the undergraduate college showing the completion of the college course and awarding of the degree by an approved college.
3. A psychological test, required by some seminaries, though not all.
T re-Veterinary Studies
A minimum of two years of liberal arts education is usually required for entrance into a school of veterinary medicine. Three or four years are preferred. In general, the specific course re- quirements are the same as those of the medical schools. English, biology, physics, inorganic and organic chemistry must be included. Genetics, mathematics, economics, and a foreign language are often recommended.
Pre-Professional Studies in Engineering
Since curricular requirements vary among engineering schools and fields of specialization (chemical, electrical, mechanical, etc.), students planning to transfer to a school of engineering must give careful consideration to the requirements of the institution they wish to enter.
Students should plan to include the courses listed below in their programs at Glarion and should plan to transfer no later than at the completion of the sophomore year.
In most instances the following program will meet the general education requirements for most schools of engineering:
Eng. Ill, 113: Gomposition I, II— 6 credits
Math. 172, 271, 272: Calculus with Analytic Geometry I, II, III
—12 credits Math 350: Ordinary Differential Equations-3 credits Math 471: Advanced or Calculus— 3 credits Chem. 153, 154: General Chemistry I, II (Lecture) -6 credits
69
Chem. 163, 164: General Chemistry I, II (Lab) -2 credits
Physics 251, 252: General Physics I, II-8 credits
Social Science Courses— 9 credits
Humanities Courses— 9 credits
Health and Physical Education Courses— 4 credits
Pre-Professional Studies in Fharmacij
One year of liberal arts study is often required to enter a school of pharmacy. In such cases, English, inorganic chemistry, and mathematics are required. Students with two years of liberal arts may often obtain advanced standing if they have included biology, physics, and organic chemistry in their courses.
Other Types of Professional Training
Many universities oflFer graduate professional programs in busi- ness administration, public administration, social work, and library service. These programs vary from one to two years in length and confer specialized master's degrees (Master of Business Ad- ministration, Master of Public Administration, Master of Social Work, Master of Library Science) upon their successful comple- tion. Graduates of accredited colleges with records satisfactory to the admissions officers of the professional schools are accepted. Specific majors and courses are usually not required. Specialized entrance examinations are sometimes required.
Students interested in any of these should consult the Dean of Arts and Sciences concerning the specific requirements of their field of interest.

TEACHER EDUCATION
OBJECTIVES
Six specialized curricula are offered in professional education: elementary education, library science, music education, public school nursing, secondary education, and special education— with options in mental retardation and speech correction (speech pathology and audiology). Each curriculum is designed to meet the graduation requirements of the college, the certification re- quirements of the state, and the accreditation requirements of various professional associations.
Each curriculum has its own particular objectives, and students are advised to explore these with their advisors. In broad terms, however, the several teacher education programs are designed to help each student grow in his ability to:
1. Articulate his thoughts and feelings with clarity, grace, and force.
2. Engage in rigorous critical inquiry as he develops a con- ceptual system with which to understand himself and his world.
3. Define himself as a person and educator with regard to the moral, spiritual, and aesthetic values that condition his life commitments.
4. Acquire the necessary information, knowledge, and intel- lectual discipline needed to perform his professional tasks.
5. Develop the skills needed for specifying suitable learning goals, for diagnosing learner characteristics, for creating ap- propriate learning environments and experiences, and for evaluating learner growth and achievement.
6. Engage in inter-personal relationships that are facilitating for himself and for those with whom he works.
7. Give leadership to the field of education.
CURRICULA
Students who enroll in one of the Teacher Education curricula may earn the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education with certification in the following:
CURRICULUM IN ELEMENTARY EDUCATION to prepare for teaching in the kindergarten, primary, and intermediate grades.
CURRICULUM IN LIBRARY SCIENCE EDUCATION to pre- pare for service as school librarian.
CURRICULUM IN MUSIC EDUCATION to prepare for the teaching of music.
71
CURRICULUM IN PUBLIC SCHOOL NURSING to prepare registered nurses for service as school nurses.
CURRICULUM IN SECONDARY EDUCATION to prepare for teaching in secondary schools.
CURRICULUM IN SPECIAL EDUCATION to prepare for teaching the mentally retarded.
CURRICULUM IN SPEECH PATHOLOGY AND AUDIOL- OGY to prepare specialists for senace in speech correction to the speech and hearing handicapped.
Students in the above curricula may also take courses which will lead to certification in Safety Education.
CERTIFICATION INSTRUCTIONAL I CERTIFICATE
Students who complete one of the teacher education curricula of Clarion State College and who are awarded a baccalaureate degree are qualified for the Pennsylvania Instructional I Certificate, valid for three years from the date of issue. Application for the certificate must be made and the certificate issued before graduates may teach in the public schools of Pennsylvania.
THE PERMANENT COLLEGE OR INSTRUCTIONAL II CER- TIFICATE
The Permanent College or Instructional II Certificate requires three years of successful teaching experience on the Instructional I Certificate in the public schools of this Commonwealth and the satisfactory completion of twenty-four (24) semester hours of post- baccalaureate education. Provisional certificates issued prior to July 1, 1969, are valid for three years of teaching or a period of 10 years, whichever comes first. These certificates may be made perm- anent upon the completion of three years of successful teaching on the certificate and the completion of six credits of post baccalau- reate or graduate work if the certificate was issued prior to October 1, 1953; 12 credits if issued between October 1, 1953, and October 1, 1967; and 24 credits if issued between October 1, 1967 and July 1, 1969. A provisional certificate which has not been made perm- anent within ten years from date of issue may be renewed for an additional period of ten years upon the completion of 12 semester hours of post baccalaureate or graduate work.
EXTENSION OF CERTIFICATES
A certificate valid for the secondary school may be extended to include the elementary field upon completion of the approved pro- gram in the field of elementary education.
72
A certificate valid for the elementary school may be extended to include a secondary subject upon completion of the approved pro- gram in the secondary subject field.
The holder of a certificate valid for the elementary school may have an endorsement of Library Science for the elementary school upon the completion of eighteen (18) semester hours of approved courses in this field. This endorsement is valid only for the ele- mentary school library.
EVALUATION OF CREDITS
Evaluations of credits for students are considered valid only for the year in which distributions are made (year in which credits are earned.) This situation exists because of changes in regulations governing the value of credits and in the requirements for certifi- cation and graduation frequently made by the Department of Edu- cation, the State Board of Education, and the Board of Presidents of the State Colleges. Students are urged to keep themselves well informed about their distributions by occasional inquiries at the Academic OflSce at times other than registration periods.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

STUDENT TEACHING
Those who major in secondary education are assigned to student teaching upon completion of at least 80 credits and certain course requirements. Each secondary major will receive an assignment for a full day of student teaching throughout one semester at one of the public school student teaching centers cooperating with the college.
Secondary students majoring in Library Science are assigned to student teaching upon completion of at least 80 credits and speci- fied course requirements. Two major assignments are required: the equivalent of one half semester in public school library practice and the equivalent of one half semester in classroom academic teaching at one of the public school teaching centers cooperating with the college.
Those who major in elementary education are assigned to student teaching upon completion of at least 80 credits and specified course requirements. Each elementary major will receive an assignment for a full day of student teaching throughout one semester at one of the public school elementary student teaching centers associated with the college. For elementary majors with the 18 semester hour concentration in Library Science, the semester's program in student teaching is divided into two student teaching assignments involving experience at one grade level and an elementary school library.
Student teachers will be assigned where they can be accommo- dated, without special consideration of their place of permanent residence.
Student teachers are encouraged to reside throughout the se- mester in the community in which their student teaching center is located.
All student teaching assignments follow the public school calen- dar rather than the college calendar each semester.
The final grade in student teaching will be recommended by the cooperating teacher in consultation with the College supervisor and will be finally approved and reported by the College super- visor.
Student teachers must meet college requirements prior to as- signment.

Elementary Education majors have a number of elective credits which they can use in a number of ways— to pursue areas of per-
77
sonal interest, to gain strength in several academic areas, to en- hance their professional competence, or to elect an area of academic concentration. Early Childhood Education certification would require a concentration in that area. Students who choose an academic concentration must have at least 18 semester hours of credit for a single subject concentration and 24 semester hours of credit for a broad area concentration.

*Mathematics 271 and Physics 252 are prerequisites. Majors in the field should understand that Mathematics 271 must be pre- ceded by Mathematics 171 (or 151 and 152) and Mathematics 172; Physics 252 must be preceded by Physics 251.
**Mathematics 272 and Physics 252 are prerequisites.
Students who have taken Chemistry 153 and Chemistry 154 may be permitted, upon consideration of their performance, to substitute these courses for Chemistry 151 and Chemistry 152. A total of 30 semester hours in chemistry must still be taken.
Chemistry majors should not schedule Mathematics 112 or Phy- sical Science 111 or 112 in their general education programs.
GENERAL SCIENCE
42 Semester Hours
A program specifically designed to prepare students to teach science at the junior high or middle school level. General Science majors are not prepared to teach specialized high school courses such as biology, chemistry, physics, or earth science. Likewise, a Biology, Chemistry, or Physics major is not prepared to teach Gen- eral Science unless his college program is broadened to include aU of the required science courses of the General Science cm-riculum. A student who desires to teach only speciahzed courses should major in the specific subject area.

Three (3) additional science courses will be needed to give a minimum of 42 credits. Students, with advisement, may elect courses from one field only, or courses may be distributed among biology, chemistry, or physics.
* Mathematics 171 is a prerequisite. Mathematics 151 and 152 may be substituted for 171. Majors in General Science should not include Biology 111, Mathematics 112, Physical Science 111 and 112, and Earth Science 111 in their general education programs (See page 48).
83
Since General Science is an interdisciplinary major, students must maintain a quality point average of 2.00 in each of the fields; phy- sics, chemistry, biology, and earth science.
A Biology, Chemistry, or Physics major may receive provisional certification in General Science only if his program of courses has included, satisfactorily, all the basic courses in the General Science curriculum.

SPECIAL FIELDS AND SERVICES IN TEACHER EDUCATION
THE CURRICULUM IN LIBRARY SCIENCE
On December 3, 1937, the State Council of Education approved a curriculum for the education of school librarians at Clarion State College.
Library science courses are also offered as electives for Liberal Arts students and for elementary majors electing to take their 18- hour concentration in library science.
Besides meeting the state requirements for elementary and sec- ondary school librarianship, the library science program at Clarion State College gives training in school library techniques and man- agement and the use of educational media, qualifies students for service in public hbraries, and offers prerequisite courses for the Master of Science degree in Library Science.
Candidates for the B.S. degree in Education who speciahze in library science are required to complete 24 semester hours of library science courses. Upon receipt of the degree, the graduate is recommended for certification as a Hbrarian in all grades of the Pennsylvania pubhc schools.
The student speciahzing in library science must also complete a minimum requirement of 18 or more credits in an academic field such as communication arts (English), social studies, sciences, or mathematics. If he selects a foreign language and takes the Ele- mentary I and II courses, he must complete 20 credits plus the methods course. The second field must be one in which he can do student teaching. At this time the following areas are not accept- able: art, music, poHtical science, philosophy, psychology. In the senior year, he is required to do nine weeks of student teaching in this second field as weU as nine weeks of practice work in a school hbrary.
