THE PURPOSE OF MILLSAPS COLLEGE

Millsaps College has as its primary aim the development of men and women for responsible leadership and well-rounded lives of useful service to their fellow men, their country, and their God. It seeks to function as a community of learners where faculty and students together seek the truth that frees the minds of men.

As an institution of the Methodist Church, Millsaps College is dedicated to the idea that religion is a vital part of education; that education is an integral part of the Christian religion; and that church-related colleges, providing a sound academic program in a Christian environment, afford a kind of discipline and in- fluence which no other type of institution can offer. The college provides a con- genial atmosphere where persons of all faiths may study and work together for the development of their physical, intellectual, and spiritual capacities.

As a liberal arts college, Millsaps seeks to give the student adequate breadth and depth of understanding of civilization and culture in order to broaden his perspective, to enrich his personality, and to enable him to think and act intelligently amid the complexities of the modern world. The curriculum is designed to avoid premature specialization and to integrate the humanities, the social studies, and the natural sciences for their mutual enrichment.

The college recognizes that training which will enable a person to support himself adequately is an essential part of a well-rounded education. On the other hand, it believes that one of the chief problems of modern society is that in too many cases training as expert technicians has not been accompanied by educa- tion for good citizenship. It offers, therefore, professional and pre-professional train- ing balanced by cultural and humane studies. In an environment that emphasizes the cultural and esthetic values to be found in the study of language, literature, philosophy, and science, the student at Millsaps can also obtain the necessary courses to prepare him for service in such fields as teaching, journalism, social work, and business or for professional study in these areas as well as in theology, medicine, dentistry, engineering, law, and other fields.

As an institution of higher learning, Millsaps College fosters an attitude of con- tinuing intellectual awareness, of tolerance, and of unbiased inquiry, without which true education cannot exist. It does not seek to indoctrinate, but to inform and inspire. It does not shape the student in a common mold of thought and ideas, but rather attempts to search out his often deeply hidden aptitudes, capacities, and aspirations and to provide opportunities for his maximum potential develop- ment. It seeks to broaden his horizons and to lift his eyes and heart toward the higher and nobler attributes of life. The desired result is an intelligent, voluntary dedication to moral principles and a growing social consciousness that will guide him into a rich, well-rounded Christian life, with ready acceptance of respon- sibility to neighbor, state, and church.

information for prospective students

HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE

Millsaps College was founded in 1 890 by the Methodist Church as a "Christian col- lege for young men." The philanthropy of Major Reuben Webster Millsaps and other Methodist leaders in Mississippi enabled the college to open two years later on the out- skirts of Jackson, the state capital, a town of some 9,000 population. The beginnings were modest: two buildings, 149 students (two-thirds of whom were enrolled in a preparatory school), five instructors, and an endowment of $70,432. Fifty years later, the student body numbered 599 and the faculty had increased to 33. Women were admitted at an early date and the graduation of Sing Ung Zung of Soochow, China, in 1908, began a tradition of the college's influence beyond the borders of the state.

Millsaps' first president, William Belton Murrah, served until 1910. Other presidents have been: David Carlisle Hull (1910-191 2), Dr. Alexander Farrar Watkins (1912-1 923), Dr. David Martin Key (1923-1938), Dr. Marion Lofton Smith (1938-1952), Dr. Homer Ellis Finger, Jr., (1952-64), Dr. Benjamin Barnes Graves (1965-1970), and Dr. Edward McDaniel Collins, Jr. (1970-1978). Dr. George Marion Harmon was named president in the fall of 1978.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The close personal relationship among students, faculty and the administration is one of the most vital parts of the Millsaps experience. A liberal arts college designed to train students for responsible citizenship and well-balanced lives, Millsaps offers pro- fessional and pre-professional training coupled with cultural and disciplinary studies. Students are selected on the basis of their ability to think, desire to learn, good moral character and intellectual maturity. The primary consideration for admission is the abili- ty to do college work satisfactory to the college and beneficial to the student.

Millsaps' 1 ,200-member student body represents about 30 states and several foreign countries. Students come from 25 religious denominations. All are urged to take ad- vantage of the educational and cultural offerings of Mississippi's capital city of Jackson.

Research facilities available are: the State Department of Archives and History, the State Library, the library of the State Department of Health, and the Jackson Public Library. Together, they provide research facilities found nowhere else in the state. Cultural advantages include: the Jackson Symphony Orchestra, Ballet Mississippi, New Stage Theatre, Mississippi Opera Association, and musical, dramatic, and sporting events held at the City Auditorium and the Mississippi Coliseum.

Millsaps is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and approved by the American Association of University Women and the University Senate of the United Methodist Church. It is recognized by the General Board of Educa- tion of the United Methodist Church as one of its strongest institutions.

THE MILLSAPS-WILSON LIBRARY

The Millsaps-Wilson Library has more than 200,000 volumes and 650 periodical subscriptions. It provides individual study carrels and rooms as well as browsing and lounge areas. There is a collection of audio-visual materials and listening facilities. Special collections are: the Lehman Engel Collection of books, manuscripts, recordings, and correspondence relating to the theatre and the arts; the Mississippi Methodist Archives; a rare book collection; the Kellogg Collection of juvenile books and curriculum materials; U.S. government documents; and the Millsaps Archives. The library belongs to the Central Mississippi Library Council and the Southeastern Library Network.

THE COMPUTING CENTER

In today's complex society, students need to be able to understand the role of the computer. Accordingly, a good college must have a strong computing resource. Millsaps has one of the finest computing facilities available for easy student access. From several terminal cluster locations on campus, students and faculty can use the Digital PDP-1 1 RSTS/E timesharing computer system which is located in the Academic Complex. Ad- ditional resources are the PDP-8/e laboratory and teaching computer and the EAI-TR20 analog computer which are located in Sullivan-Harrell Hall.

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS

The 100-acre campus is valued at about $30 million. Chief administrative offices are in Whitworth Hall. Murrah Hall, built in 1914, has been recently renovated to house the School of Management. Sullivan-Harrell Science Hail was built in 1928 and was renovated in 1963 to house the science program.

The Christian Center, completed in 1950, was built with gifts from Mississippi Methodists, alumni, and friends. It has a 1,000-seat auditorium, a small chapel, classrooms, and offices. In 1 967, the stage was renovated into a modern theatre stage.

The James Observatory is an historical landmark located on the northwest corner of the campus.

The Physical Activities Center, dedicated in 1 974, has courts for basketball, tennis, badminton, and volleyball. Weight-training and physical therapy rooms are also includ- ed in this multi-purpose facility. An outdoor swimming pool is adjacent to this facility. Other athletic facilities include tennis courts and fields for football, baseball, soccer, and track.

The Boyd Campbell Student Center houses the Office of Student Affairs, the bookstore, post office, student activity quarters and a recreation area. The grill and din- ing hall are located in the student center also.

There are three residence halls for women and two for men. All are air conditioned.

The Academic Complex, completed in 1971 , includes a recital hall in which is located a 41 -rank Mohler organ. The complex houses Music, Art, Political Science, Computer Services, Business Office, Office of Records, Business Affairs and Continuing Educa- tion. It also contains sky-lit art studios, a student computer terminal room, a music laboratory and classrooms.

Applicants to the Adult Degree Program should apply directly to the director of the Adult Degree Program. Applicants for the Master of Business Administration degree should apply directly to the director of the MBA Program.

COUNSELING PROGRAM

Counseling services are designed to help students accomplish maximum success in their academic work. Many members of the college community participate in counsel- ing, and specialists are used as referral resources when problems require specialized therapy.

Pre-Registration Counseling: The college provides counseling services to any pro- spective student who wants to explore vocational and educational objectives before entering classes in the fall. Students who are admitted are urged to take advantage of this service.

Orientation: Freshmen and transfer students are expected to be on campus on dates specified in the college calendar. Orientation is planned and carried out cooperatively by students and faculty to help entering students prepare for campus life. Faculty Advisors: New students are assigned to faculty members who serve as academic advisors. When a student chooses the major field, a professor in that field becomes the advisor.

Personal Counseling: The Office of Student Affairs counsels students on vocational choices, selection of fields of study, study and reading skills, emotional adjustments and related matters.

Testing: An individual testing service is available to help with self-analysis and plan- ning in terms of interests.

STUDENT HOUSING

The dean and associate dean of student affairs coordinate housing in cooperation with residence hall directors and resident assistants. Men who are active members of a fraternity may live in its house after their freshman year.

All freshman men and women, unless they are married or live with members of their immediate families in Jackson or vicinity, are required to reside on campus in col- lege residence halls and to dine on campus, also. Exceptions to this policy are unusual and must be authorized through the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs.

Residence hall rooms are designed to house two students each. Students wishing to room together should make every effort to pay room deposits at the same time and to specify their desire to room together. Single rooms are limited and a student desiring a single room should pay his room reservation fee as early as possible. Assignments are made in the order in which this fee or a completed application is received, whichever is later. Room preferences are honored unless the rooms are already taken by students who are eligible for them. Room rent cannot be refunded after the semester begins.

The quiet wing option is offered for students who wish to live in an environment where study is possible 24 hours a day.

10

Residence halls open at 10 a.m. on the day preceding each term and close at 10 a.m. on the day following the last scheduled examination of each term. For Thanksgiving and spring holidays, the residence halls will close at 3 p.m. on the last day of sched- uled classes and reopen at noon on the day preceding the resumption of classes. Students are not housed in the residence halls during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or spring holidays.

MEDICAL SERVICES

Millsaps provides medical services to its students who are suffering from minor illnesses. The services are limited to students living in Millsaps residence halls and frater- nity houses. Medical services through the college physician are available through the nurse on duty or, in her absence, one of the residence hall directors or the Office of Student Affairs.

The college pays for the initial visit to the college physician for each illness.

CAREER PLANNING AND PLACEMENT SERVICES

Career planning begins with the freshman year and is pursued, via testing, advis- ing, counseling, seminars, internships, externships and on-campus interviewing, through the senior year. Special workshops are offered throughout the year on resume writing, interview preparation, career opportunities, job search techniques and summer employ- ment. "SAPS", a career advisory network, pairs Millsaps students with professional alumni and gives students a chance to gain firsthand exposure to a variety of professions and career options.

Part-time positions both on and off campus are available through the Career Plan- ning & Placement Office. Millsaps College has an excellent reputation with the Jackson business community based on past employment experiences with Millsaps students.

Placement files, containing credentials, are maintained for interested students and alumni at no charge.

STUDENT RECORDS

In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, Millsaps College students have the right to review, inspect, and challenge the accuracy of infor- mation kept in a cumulative file by the institution. It also ensures that records cannot be released without the written consent of the student except in the following situations:

(a) to school officials and faculty who have a legitimate educational interest, such as a faculty advisor;

(b) where the information is classified as "directory information." The following categories of information have been designated by Millsaps College as direc- tory information: name, address, telephone listing, date and place of birth, ma- jor field of study, participation in officially recognized activites and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, the most recent previous educational institution attended by the student, and information needed for honors and awards. If you do not wish such information released without your consent you should notify the Office of Records in writing prior to the end of the first day of classes.

For a full statement of policy concerning the confidentiality of student records, con- sult the staff of the Office of Records or the Office of Student Affairs.

Once the student and college officials have completed their portions, the student should then take the completed form to a lender (a Credit Union, Bank, Savings and Loan, and any other lending institution). If the student can not find a lender, he/she should contact the financial aid office at Millsaps. The interest on these loans varies between 7, 8 and 9 percent. If the student qualifies the federal government will pay the interest while the student is in school. The student may borrow in one academic year a sum not to exceed $2500.00 as an undergraduate nor $5,000.00 as a graduate student and no more than $12,500.00 maximum for all undergraduate years nor $25,000.00 maximum for all graduate and undergraduate years combined.

Student life

CAMPUS MINISTRY

Religious life at Millsaps centers around the churches of the city of Jackson and the religious life program coordinated through the Campus Ministry Team. Churches provide communities of faith for students, faculty, and staff. The campus religious life program works to enhance the spiritual growth of members of the community. The em- phasis is on the development of values and insights related to one's religious life that are formed by a keen awareness of the world and are shaped by struggling with fun- damental questions about the nature of belief and of a religious lifestyle.

To meet these goals, the campus ministry program at Millsaps utilizes as fully as possible the experiences of students in the classroom and in their relationships to their peers, both being situations which raise basic questions about intellectual and spiritual growth and about the link between faith and life. Thus, programs concerning the rela- tionship of faith to issues raised in the classroom are an integral part of the religious life program of the college. Further, such established programs as the Student Sym- posium and the Friday Forum Series are utilized to provide religious perspectives on critical issues.

Campus ministry at Millsaps is coordinated through the Campus Ministry Team, a group of about 35 students, faculty and staff persons who plan for the college com- munity. The team works through several committees: Chapel Committee, Human Rights Committee, Special Ministries Committee and Voluntary Service Committee.

The campus ministry program at Millsaps is ecumenical. St. Peter's Catholic Cathedral provides a staff person to the Millsaps campus who works with Catholic students and in the larger life of the college. Intervarsity Christian Fellowship regularly works with a group of students. All programming is ecumenical in terms of participation and resource people.

The Office of the Chaplain serves as a liaison with churches, the United Methodist conferences, and other groups and agencies in the city and state. The chaplain works with students who serve internships with the Methodist Building staff, provides resources for events on and off campus related to various campus ministry concerns, and actively participates in the work of the United Methodist conferences to which the college relates.

PUBLIC EVENTS COMMITTEE

The Public Events Committee receives funds from the student government to sponsor programs of general interest to the campus and community. Its major activity is the Fri- day Forum Series— a continuing slate of speakers presented each Friday during the academic year. The objective of the series is to provide information and stimulate in- terest in current issues, to explore historical events, and to present differing perspec- tives on controversial subjects. Faculty members, local authorities and national experts are invited to present their thoughts on a variety of literary, cultural, scientific, political, religious and historical topics.

In addition to the Forum Series, the Public Events Committee sponsors special events throughout the academic year. It provides funds to student organizations and academic departments interested in organizing programs open to the entire campus. These in- clude films, guest speakers, and music recitals.

All of these activities have to do with the true aim of liberal education: the liberation of the mind to grasp the world of nature and of human experience and action in all its richness and complexity, and to respond with awareness, sensitivity, concern, and mature judgment.

ATHLETICS

The athletic policy of Millsaps College is based on the premise that athletics exist for the benefit of the students and not primarily to enhance the prestige and publicity of the college.

24

Competitive sports conducted in an atmosphere of good sportsmanslnip and fair play can make a significant contribution to the complete pliysical, emotional, moral, and mental development of the well-rounded individual. They are thus an integral part of a program of liberal education. An attempt is made to provide a sports-for-all program and to encourage as many students as possible to participate.

Intercollegiate

The program for men includes football, basketball, baseball, tennis, and soccer. The women's program includes basketball and tennis.

The programs are conducted on guidelines established by the National Collegiate Athletic Association of which Millsaps College is a member.

Those who participate in intercollegiate athletics are required to observe and main- tain the same academic standards as other students.

Intramural

The program for men provides competition among campus organizations in basket- ball, volleyball, softball, tennis, and soccer. The program for women includes touch foot- ball, volleyball, tennis, basketball, softball, and soccer.

PUBLICATIONS

The Purple and White is the official student newspaper of the college, and its staff is composed of individuals interested in campus journalism. The P&W endeavors to provide coverage of all Millsaps events, as well as to serve as a forum for discussion and exploration of ideas.

Now in its seventy-seventh year, the Bobashela is the annual student publication of Millsaps College, attempting to give a comprehensive view of campus life. Bobashela is an Indian name for good friend.

Through Stylus, the college literary magazine, students interested in creative writing are given an opportunity to see their work in print. The publication comes out twice each year and contains the best poetry, short stories and essays submitted by Millsaps students.

MUSIC AND DRAMA The Millsaps Singers

Open by audition to all students, the Singers represent Millsaps in public perfor- mances, campus programs and annual tours throughout the state and other areas of the United States. In recent years the choir has traveled to Colorado; to Washington, D.C.; to Atlanta to record for the National Protestant Hour; and to Mexico. The choir has sung with the Memphis Symphony Orchestra three times, the Jackson Symphony many times, the Chicago Chamber Orchestra and the New Orleans Philharmonic. Membership earns two semester hours of activity credit for the year's work.

The 1983-84 concert season will include the annual performance of Handel's Messiah, an in-state tour of Mississippi, two performances with the Jackson Symphony, and a performance of Orffs Carmina Burana for the Millsaps Arts and Lecture Series.

Auditions are held each fall for membership in the Troubadours, a show choir of 16 students selected from the Singers. The Troubadours represent the college at numerous campus, high school, and cultural functions throughout the state.

The Miilsaps Players produce four full-length plays each year. In addition, they pre- sent several one-act plays directed by senior theatre majors. Casting for all plays is done by audition, open to all students. Participation in Players productions, either onstage or backstage, earns credit toward nnembership in Alpha Psi Onnega, national honorary drannatics fraternity. Among the major productions staged in recent years are A Cry of Players, Othello, The MatchrDaker, Picnic, Hay Fever, Paint Your Wagon, Charley's Aunt, Camelot, Look Back in Anger, Candida, Damn Yankees, Dangerous Corner, The Merchant of Venice, Nude with Violin, The Winslow Boy, Equus and A ^/lidsummer Night's Dream.

8. Residence Requirements:

To qualify for graduation from Millsaps, 30 of the last 36 fiours of academic work must be done in residence as a degree-seeking student. The three exceptions allowed to this rule are: (1) pre-engineering dual-degree program students may transfer back as many as 31 hours, (2) students who have been approved for the prescribed pre- medical technologist program may take the last 26 hours at the affiliated institution and (3) students leaving to enter professional school may transfer back the final 26 hours of work (in this case, however, residence will be required at Millsaps for the second semester of the junior year).

9. English Proficiency Requirement:

Before receiving a bachelor's degree each student is required to demonstrate pro- ficiency in English composition and usage by passing an examination given by the English Department. It consists of a 500-word essay written extempore within two and one-half hours on a subject selected from a list furnished at the examination. Students who made grades of A or B on English 101-102, 103-104, or 105 at Millsaps are exempted from this examination. Students may also demonstrate the required proficiency in Liberal Studies 100.

The examination is given by the English Department twice in the academic year. The regular administration is on the second Thursday in November from 4 to 6:30 p.m. A special administration of the examination is given on the second Thursday in March from 4 to 6:30 p.m. to seniors who hope to graduate but who have not passed the Junior English Proficiency Examination. Seniors who fail the special examination and who think they have compelling cause may petition the dean of the college for an extraordinary administration of the examination in the summer session following. If the dean grants the petition, he may also stipulate that the student must audit English 101-102 during the summer session.

All rising juniors, transfer students at the junior and senior levels, and seniors who failed the examination in their junior year must be present for the November administra- tion of the proficiency examination.

Each student who fails the examination in November is assigned to a member of the English Department for remedial instruction.

10. Majors:

In addition to taking the prescribed work for the degree, the student must major in one of the following areas: accounting, art, business administration, biology, chemistry, church music, classics, computer studies, economics, education, English, French, geology, German, history, mathematics, music, philosophy, physics, political science, psychology, religion, sociology, Spanish, or theatre. For students pursuing the B.L.S. degree an interdisciplinary major is also possible with the consent of the appropriate departments.

Specific requirements for the major can be found under the appropriate depart- ment of instruction. Students may be permitted to major in a subject only after careful consideration and with the consent of the chairman of the department.

A major for each student must be approved no later than the beginning of the junior year and the proper forms submitted to the Office of Records. All work to be applied toward the major must be approved in advance by the department chairman or the student's major professor.

A student may have more than one major by completing the requirements in the departments involved.

11. Minors:

While there is no requirement that students complete a minor as a part of their degree, they may elect a minor in those departments which offer one.

Ordinarily a student must have a minimum of 12 hours in a department beyond what is used to meet degree requirements in order to qualify for a minor. A minimum of eight hours toward the minor must be taken at Millsaps. Specific requirements for a particular minor can be found under the appropriate department of instruction.

34

12. Comprehensive Examinations:

Before receiving a bachelor's degree the student nnust pass a satisfactory conn- prehensive examination in the major field of study. This examination is given in the senior year and is intended to cover subject matter greater in scope than a single course or series of courses. The purpose of the comprehensive examination is to coordinate the class work with independent reading and thinking in such a way as to relate the knowledge acquired and give the student a general understanding of the field which could not be acquired from individual courses.

The comprehensive examination requires at least three hours and is part written and part oral, the division of time between the two to be at the discretion of the members of the department concerned. The oral examination will be conducted by a committee composed of members of the department, and, if desired by the department, one or more members of the faculty from other departments or other qualified persons.

Students may take the comprehensive examination only if the courses in which they have credit and in which they are currently enrolled are those which fulfill the requirements in their major department. They may take the examination in the spring semester if they are within 18 hours of graduation by the end of that semester. The examination will be given in December or January for students who meet the other requirements and who will not be in residence at Millsaps during the spring semester.

13. Quality Index Required:

A minimum of 240 quality points is required for the B.A., B.S., B.B.A., B.L.S., and B.S. Ed. degrees; 248 for the B.M. degree. An overall quality point index of 2.00 is re- quired of all students. Transfer students must have at least a quality point index of 2.00 on their Millsaps work. The index is always calculated on the total number of academic hours attempted; however, an exception to the rule of hours attempted is allowed in instances where courses are repeated at Millsaps. (See Section Grades, Honors, Class Standing.)

14. Application for a Degree:

Each student who is a candidate for a degree is required to submit a written ap- plication for the degree by November 1 of the academic year of graduation. This date will apply also to students who plan to complete their work in the summer session. Forms for degree applications are to be secured and filed in the Office of Records.

15. Requirements for a Second Degree:

In order to earn a second degree from Millsaps College a student must have 30 additional semester hours of work beyond the semester hours required for the first degree, and these additional hours must include all of the requirements for both the second degree and the second major.

16. Required Sequence of Courses for All Regular Students:

Freshmen students shall enroll in the appropriate course in English composition (unless exempt by examination) and in at least one other prescribed course as listed in the Core Curriculum or the Additional Degree Requirements.

Sophomore students shall enroll in at least two prescribed courses as listed in the Core Curriculum or the Additional Degree Requirements.

Enrollment in the required language courses will begin not later than the first semester of the junior year. It is recommended that language be started in the freshman or sophomore year. Those freshmen who, by virtue of previous study, plan to satisfy the language requirement taking courses at the intermediate level only, are strongly ad- vised to being such courses in the freshman year while their experience in the language chosen is recent.

35

PRE-MEDICAL AND PRE-DENTAL

It is the responsibility of the pre-medical and pre-dental students to consult the catalogs of the schools to which they wish to apply for their specific requirements. The following courses are required by many medical and dental schools.

Biology 121-122 8 hours Mathematics 115-116 or 115-108 8 hours

Chemistry 121-122, 123-124. 8 hours Physics 111-112 or 131-132 in addition

Chemistry 231-232, 233-234.10 hours to 151-152 8 hours

English 101-102 6 hours

The student is urged to consult with a member of the Pre-medical Advisory Com- mittee (Al Berry, George Beardsley, Robert Bergmark, Susan Howell, James McKeown and Edmond Venator) in designing a program that will fit particular needs, background and interest.

Millsaps College and many medical and dental schools strongly recommend that the student obtain a baccalaureate degree in an area of interest. This catalog should be consulted elsewhere for the exact major and degree requirements. Millsaps and most medical and dental schools also strongly recommend that the student develop a sound background in the humanities and social sciences.

Some medical and dental schools will not accept credit in laboratory science courses obtained by C.L.E.P. or advanced placement tests. If the student plans to obtain such credit, he should first consult the medical or dental schools in which he has an interest to be certain that the school will accept such credit.

The student should remember that the requirements listed in a medical or dental school catalog are minimal but that (s)he should obtain maximum preparation. In general, the student who is weak in some science, as shown by performance in introductory college courses, is urged to take further work in that science to prepare adequately. The student should also utilize limited time in taking courses that will not be available during professional training. The following courses are recommended as electives by many medical and dental schools.

Biology 251, 301, 381, 383, 391 or 315

Chemistry 251-253, 264-266 or 363-365, 364-366

English 201-202 or 203-204

Economics and Business Administration

Foreign Language (reading knowledge)

History 101-102

Mathematics 223-224 or 225-226

Philosophy

Physics 301 , 306, 311,31 5, or 31 6

Psychology 303, 307

Sociology

The Heritage Program gives the student a more flexible schedule and time to take additional courses of interest and need.

PREPARATION FOR MINISTRY

A program for students planning for or interested in exploring a form of

professional Christian ministry

Millsaps College has enjoyed a tradition of close involvement with students from all denominations and faiths- particularly from The United Methodist Church-whose vocational goal or interest was a form of professional Christian ministry. The Prepara- tion for Ministry Program is designed to offer a wide variety of experiences for persons who have decided on or would like to explore some form of Christian ministry as a per- sonal vocation. The specific purposes of the program are as follows:

a. To encourage personal grov\^h in relation to self and other persons.

b. To explore meanings and forms of ministry and to encourage openness to the many ways that the Christian Gospel speaks to human beings and their worlds.

36

c. To keep students closely in touch with the resources and personnel of their de- nomination or faith, and to serve as a liaison with key administrative persons of these bodies.

d. To support students who wish to explore some form of professional ministry as a possibility for themselves.

e. To assist students in developing a vision for their own ministry.

f. To involve students in various types of competency training relevant to pro- fessional ministry.

g. To provide a supportive, encouraging community for students planning for or interested in professional ministry.

The Preparation for Ministry Program provides a basic link between the college and the conference/diocese/presbytery or other structure to which a student is respon- sible. In the case of United Methodists, the program is a supplement to the candidacy program. This program is also a clearinghouse for student employment in various capacities in congregations or church agencies. Participation by United Methodist students is obligatory for receiving the ministerial grant.

The following is the format for the program on a four-year basis:

First Year: Exploration of personal motivations for professional ministry through a variety of personal interviews, group sessions and programs; building relationships with other participants; exploring meanings and forms of ministry through interviews, pro- grams, and field trips.

Second Year: Personal growth experiences through two weekend personal growth seminars (one each semester) focused on self-development, assessment of style of work- ing with people and interpersonal relations, with continuing emphasis on the develop- ment of one's personal vision of ministry, and with optional personal growth experiences growing out of these seminars; experiences designed to expose students to working situations (church school classes, youth ministry programs, etc.); training in knowledge and skills for particular tasks, with options according to previous experiences and in- terests, in areas such as education, music, youth ministry, group dynamics, planning process, and other areas to be designated as the need arises.

Third Year: Internships to be developed in consultation with the student in order to fit his or her interest. (Internships will carry academic credit in the Department of Religion and will include careful goal-setting, supervision, and reflection); consultations as prepara- tion for seminary choice and enrollment.

Fourth Year: Further skill training; seminar based on personal growth, need assess- ment and goal setting.

Special arrangements will be made for persons who transfer in after the first or sec- ond years of their college work and for persons with special circumstances.

The coordinator for the Preparation For Ministry Program will be the chaplain to the college, assisted by the Department of Religion and two pre-seminary students. These persons will work with an advisory committee which will include the deans of students, the academic dean, the director of church relations, representatives of the supervising pastors of the two United Methodist conferences in Mississippi, representatives of denominations or faiths other than United Methodist, chairpersons of the Board of Or- dained Ministry, and other students who are interested in or planning for some form of professional Christian ministry. All incoming students who will receive the ministerial grant or who would like to explore Christian ministry as a personal vocation may secure a flyer and enroll in the program in the Department of Religion or the Office of the Chaplain.

PRE-LAW

No particular major or sequence of courses is necessary for students planning to go to law school; there is no ideal pre-law program for all students. To do well in the study of law, a student should possess:

(a) ability to communicate effectively and precisely

(b) critical understanding of the human institutions with which the law deals

(c) creative power in thinking.

37

Different students may obtain the desired training in these three areas fronn different courses. Therefore, students should consult with their faculty or major advisers and with the pre-law adviser in designing a program of courses that will best fit particular needs, background, and interests. The student with a pre-law interest should consult the pre- law advisor, John Quincy Adams, from time to time.

PRE-SOCIAL WORK

students who wish to prepare for a professional career in social work should plan a broad liberal arts program with a major in one of the social sciences. Introductory courses in sociology, psychology, and social work are essential. Other courses which are strongly recommended include Social Problems, Theories of Personality, and Social Psychology. Internships can provide valuable practical experience with community social welfare agencies. Students are urged to consult with their faculty advisers to plan a schedule.

Millsaps College offers a three-year program for those who plan to enter schools of medical technology. This college work includes not only the necessary science and mathematics courses, but also courses in history, fine arts, sociology, composition, literature, and other subjects which ensure a liberal arts experience for pre-medical technology students.

Millsaps College maintains a formal affiliation with several schools of medical technology which are approved by the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medical Association. This is the only qualifying board recognized by the American Medical Association, the American Society of Clinical Pathologists, the American College of Surgeons, the American Hospital Association, and other authoritative medical groups.

The medical technology student is expected to spend the first three years at Millsaps College (or transfer here from another recognized college, with at least the third year spent in residence here) and the senior year at the approved hospital. The student must complete the general requirements for the B.S. degree with a major in biology.

Students enrolled in affiliated schools of medical technology may transfer back the final 26 hours of work. The courses required for registry are accepted as completing the requirements of 124 semester hours for graduation. The B.S. degree is awarded at the first commencement exercise following the completion of the medical technology training.

Medical technology students are encouraged to secure the B.S. or B.A. degree before entering an approved school of medical technology.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS

The Honors Program

The Honors Program provides an opportunity for students of outstanding ability to pursue an advanced course of study which would ordinarily not be available. In the spring of their junior year and the fall of their senior year, honors students carry out a research project of their choice under the direction of a professor from their major department. The project culminates in an honors thesis, which is presented before a panel of faculty members. In the spring of the senior year, students participate in an interdisciplinary colloquium which intensively examines a topic of broad interest. Students successfully completing all phases of the Honors Program receive the designation "with honors" in their major subject at graduation. Students interested in participating in the Honors Program should consult with the director of the Honors Program in the fall of their junior year.

The Oak Ridge Science Semester

Under this program, sponsored jointly by the Southern College University Union and by the Department of Energy, a Millsaps student may spend the spring semester of the junior or senior year studying and doing research at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN. A full semester's academic credit is normally earned. The student technically remains an enrollee of Millsaps College for the purpose of scholarships and loans, which are not affected by participation in the program.

The Washington Semester

"The Washington Semester" is a joint arrangement between The American Univer- sity, Washington, D.C., Millsaps College, and other colleges and universities in the United States to extend the resources of the national capital to superior students in the field of the social sciences. The object is to provide a direct contact with the work of govern- mental departments and other national and international agencies that are located in Washington, thus acquainting the students with possible careers in public service and imparting a knowledge of government in action.

Under this arrangement qualified students of demonstrated capacity from the par- ticipating colleges will spend a semester at the School of Government and Public Ad- ministration of The American University in Washington. They earn 16 hours of credit toward graduation in their home colleges. Eight hours are earned in a Conference Seminar, in which high-ranking leaders of politics and government meet with students. Four hours are earned in a research course which entails the writing of a paper by utilizing the sources available only at the nation's capital. And four hours are earned in an In- ternship, in which the student is placed in a government or public interest organization office. In Washington the program is coordinated by faculty members of The American University.

Millsaps has a guaranteed quota of two students for each spring semester, although students may petition for entry in the fall. Second semester sophomores, juniors, or seniors are eligible.

The student technically remains an enrollee of Millsaps College for the purpose of scholarships and loans, which are thus not diminished by participation in the program.

The United Nations Semester

A cooperative program with Drew University in Madison, NJ, enables Millsaps political science majors to spend a semester making a firsthand study of the work of the United Nations. Participants may earn 15 hours of credit toward graduation. Three hours of credit are earned in a Conference Seminar, which meets two days of each week in the United Nations Plaza. Members of the Secretariat, delegates, and special agency representatives often lead discussions in a planned program of studies. Students also earn three hours of credit by engaging in an individual research project on some phase of the United Nations. The remaining hours of credit are electives taken from the regular course offerings of Drew's liberal arts college.

The student technically remains an enrollee of Millsaps College for the purpose of scholarships and loans, which are thus not diminished by participation in the program.

42

The London Semester

Another cooperative program with Drew University gives upperclass political science nnajors the opportunity to study in London, England, for a semester. Fifteen hours of credit are earned in the social sciences, with primary emphasis on political science. The faculty, including a resident director from Drew, includes members of the faculty of the London School of Economics and Political Science, Oxford University, Leeds Universi- ty, and other outstanding schools. Students live in a residential hotel in the heart of Lon- don. Provision is made for an optional pre-fall or post-spring tour of the continent at a modest cost.

The student technically remains an enrollee of Millsaps College for the purpose of scholarships and loans, which are thus not affected by participation in the program.

British Studies at Oxford

Millsaps College in cooperation with seven other colleges in the Southern College and University Union sponsors a six-week intensive summer program at Oxford University in England. It enables students to study a particular period of British history in a thoroughly integrated way and in a milieu which affords an incomparable opportunity to benefit from the experience. Up to six hours of credit may be earned through this program. Limited financial aid is available.

International Political Economy in London

A six-week summer program based in London and focusing on challenges of the multinational economy was recently instituted under the auspices of the Southern Col- lege and University Union. It provides an opportunity to study in an integrated way the social, economic, and political facets of contemporary international problems while ob- serving firsthand the operations of a major financial center. Up to six hours of credit may be earned through this program. Limited financial aid is available.

Other Study Abroad Programs

Millsaps College maintains cooperative arrangements with the Junior Year Abroad program at the Institute for American Universities at Aix-en-Provence in France. Students with a special interest in classics should consider the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome and the College Year in Athens Program, both of which offer semester programs in the classical languages combined with archeological site and museum study during the regular academic year. The American Academy in Rome and the American School of Classical Studies in Athens offer summer programs in classical art and ar- cheology. Other study abroad programs are available in most countries of Western Europe as well as in Latin America. Students interested in receiving college credit for such study may receive information concerning these programs from the chairman of the appropriate department or from the dean of the college.

Legislative Intern Program

When the Mississippi Legislature is in session, selected political science students may participate in an internship program which permits them to observe the state law- making process. Students serve as aides to legislators and legislative committees, per- forming a variety of tasks such as research, writing, and marking up bills. Students also take part in a seminar with other interns to examine the legislative process. See Political Science 452.

Public Administration Internship

With the cooperation of city, state, and federal agencies, students who have had the introductory public administration course may be placed in middle management level positions.

School of Management Intern Programs

Students have the opportunity of obtaining specialized training and practical ex- perience through an established Internship Program. The program involves prominent regional and national business organizations and an agency of the federal government. The student's training is conducted and supervised by competent management per- sonnel according to a predetermined agenda of activities. Evaluation of the student's participation and progress provides the basis for granting appropriate academic credit. See offerings 451-452 in the School of Management.

43

Small Business Institute

Students apply theory to practice by consulting small business nnanagement in the area. The progrann is sponsored by the Snnall Business Administration (S.B.A.), an agency of the federal government. Students should register for Administration 490.

Millsaps-Gulf Coast Research Laboratory Cooperative Program

Students at Millsaps College, especially those in the natural sciences, are per- mitted to enroll for one or more of the following courses at the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory as a part of their regular program of studies. The laboratory is situated near Ocean Springs, 180 miles south of Jackson. Summer work at the laboratory provides firsthand knowledge of both marine and brackish water environments.

For further information regarding these courses contact the G.C.R.L. coordinator on campus.

ADULT DEGREE PROGRAM

The Adult Degree Program was established in 1 982 to meet the needs of adults 24 years of age and older who, because of work or family responsibilities, cannot at- tend college in the traditional way. Students admitted to the Adult Degree Program are candidates for the Bachelor of Liberal Studies degree.

This program features individualized academic advising, a required introductory seminar for adults returning to college, evaluation of previous college work, credit for prior learning, and an opportunity for independent directed study. Students in the Adult Degree Program may elect to major in one of the traditional disciplines or they may choose to design an interdisciplinary major.

In addition to its academic programs, Millsaps provides a variety of special ser- vices for adult students. These include child care, career planning and placement assistance, financial aid, information sessions, and a regular monthly newsletter.

For further information about the Adult Degree Program, see the Guidelines and Procedures Handbook.

THE GRADUATE PROGRAM

Master of Business Administration

The evening Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.) program has been estab- lished at Millsaps in response to requests from the business and non-profit communities in the Jackson area. Although designed primarily to meet the needs of part-time students, sufficient coursework is offered every semester to allow full-time graduate students some flexibility in planning a curriculum of study. A typical class includes men and women with a broad range of ages, and with backgrounds from engineering, the physical and social sciences, the arts and the humanities as well as from business. The following foun- dation courses may be taken at the undergraduate level; Accounting 281-282; Business Administration 220, 275, 321 , 333, 334, 362; Economics 201-202; and Computer 100.

administration of the curriculum

GRADES, HONORS, CLASS STANDING

The grade in any class is determined by the combined class standing and a written examination. The examination is approximately one-third of the grade for the semester. "A" represents superior work. "B" represents above the average achievement. "C" represents an average level of achievement. "D" represents a level of achievement in the regularly prescribed work of the class below

the average in the same relationship as "B" is above the grade. "E" represents a condition and is changed to a "D" if the grade in the other semester

of the course is "C" or above, providing that the "E" precedes the higher grade on the

student's record. "F" represents failure to do the regularly prescribed work of the class. All marks of "D" and

above are passing marks and "F" represents failure. "WP" indicates that the student has withdrawn from the course while passing, and "WF"

means withdrawal while failing. "I" indicates that the work is incomplete and is changed to "F" if the work is not completed

by the end of the following semester. "CR" represents passing work in a non-graded course taken for hourly credit (not com- puted in G.P.A.). "NC" represents no credit in a non-graded course taken for hourly credit (not computed

in G.P.A.).

Quality Points

The completion of any academic course with a D shall entitle a student to one quality point for each semester hour; a grade of C for the semester shall entitle a student to two quality points for each semester hour; a grade of B for the semester shall entitle a student to three quality points for each semester hour, and a grade of A shall entitle a student to four quality points for each semester hour. A quality point index is deter- mined by dividing the total number of quality points by the number of academic hours taken. The change from a 3.00 to a 4.00 quality point index was made in 1968.

Class Standing

The following number of hours and quality points is required:

For sophomore rating 24 hours; 24 quality points

For junior rating 52 hours; 72 quality points

For senior rating 90 hours; 144 quality points

A student's classification for the entire year is his/her status at the beginning of the fall semester.

Student Status

Degree-seeking students taking 12 or more academic hours will be classified as full-time students. Students taking fewer than 12 academic hours may not represent the college in extracurricular activities.

Degree-seeking students taking fewer than 1 2 academic hours will be classified as part-time students.

A special student is a mature person of ability and seriousness of purpose who enrolls for limited academic work and does not plan to seek a degree. The category of "special student" is not intended to include recent high school graduates. Special students observe the same regulations concerning attendance, examination and profi- ciency as regular students.

Credit/No Credit Grade Option

Some courses have been approved to be graded either by letter grade or by credit/no credit grading. The purpose of credit/no credit grading is to encourage students to take courses in areas they might not otherwise select. Credit/no credit grading re- quires full participation of the student in all class activities. Credit signifies work of pass- ing quality or above. It will not carry quality points nor be included in the G.P.A. Students are reminded that (except for certain internship programs) courses graded by the credit/no credit option do not count toward fulfilling the 120 (124 for the B. M. degree) letter-graded hours requirement and cannot be used to fulfill core requirements or n^ jor requirements.

46

When grade option is available, it will be incumbent upon the student to make the ;hoice at the time of registration. Any change in grading option must be made within he drop-add period. (Exception: Theatre activity may be added later with appropriate ipproval.)

Repeat Courses

A student may enroll in a course at Millsaps which has previously been taken. The Highest grade earned in that course will be used in determining the cumulative quality Doint average. However, all grades reported for the course remain a part of the perma- nent record. This policy applies only to courses originally taken at Millsaps during or after spring semester 1973 and to courses originally taken at other institutions during 3r after fall semester 1980.

Graduation With Distinction

A student whose quality point index is 3.2 for the entire course shall be graduated 3um Laude; one whose quality point index is 3.6 and who has a rating of excellent Dn the comprehensive examination shall be graduated Magna Cum Laude; and one A/hose quality point index is 3.9 and who has a rating of excellent on the comprehen- sive examination shall be graduated Summa Cum Laude.

To be eligible for graduation Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude or Summa Cum _aude, a student must have passed at least 60 academic semester hours in Millsaps College. Distinction or special distinction may be refused a student who, in the judg- Tient of the faculty, has forfeited the right.

In determining eligibility for distinction or special distinction for students who have lot done all their college work at Millsaps, the quality points earned on the basis of grades Tiade at other institutions will be considered, but students will be considered eligible Dniy if they have the required index both on the work done at Millsaps and on college courses as a whole.

Graduation With Honors

A full-time student with junior standing who has an overall quality point index of 3.0 may apply to the department chairman for permission to declare as a candidate or honors. Admission requires acceptance by the chairman and approval by the Honors Council. Entrance into the Honors Program becomes effective in the spring semester Df the junior year.

Honors Program

The Honors Program extends over three semesters. A student admitted to the pro- gram will in the second semester of the junior year enroll in a directed study entitled -Honors Research I. Work begun at that time will ordinarily be completed in the fall semester of the senior year when the student will be enrolled in Honors Research II. ^ letter grade will be given for each of these courses. The two semesters of research are intended to culminate in an honors paper presented to the Honors Council and defended before an examining board.

The last semester in the Honors Program consists of an Honors Colloquium designed ;o bring together for intellectual exchange all students in the Honors Program. The aim Df the Honors Colloquium is the total involvement of good minds in the exchange of deas and values centering around selected themes and areas of investigation of mutual nterestto all disciplines. The Honors Colloquium is required of all students in the Honors Program.

A candidate who completes the colloquium satisfactorily, who presents and defends the honors paper satisfactorily, who has a 3.0 overall quality point index, and who has a 3.33 index in honors work will be graduated with Honors. A candidate who has a 3.6 overall quality point index, who has a 4.0 index in honors work and who has presented a superior honors paper will be graduated with High Honors.

A student may voluntarily withdraw candidacy for honors at any time. Students en- rolled in honors courses are, however, bound by the general college rules for dropping a course and for receiving course credit. Candidacy may be involuntarily terminated upon the recommendation of the honors advisor and with the approval of the Honors Committee.

47

Dean's List

Those meeting these requirements are on the Dean's List:

1. Scholarship:

(a) The student must carry not less than 12 academic hours during the semester on which the scholastic average is based.

(b) The student must have a quality point average of 3.2 for that semester.

(c) The student must have no mark lower than a C for that semester.

2. Conduct:

The student must be, in the judgment of the dean, a good citizen of the college community.

Hours Permitted

Fifteen academic semester hours is considered the normal load per semester.

No student may take more than 1 7 semester hours of academic work unless s(he) has a quality index of 2.5 on the last semester. No student may take more than 19 semester hours unless (s)he has a quality point index of 3.00 on the last semester and obtains permission from the dean. No student may receive credit for more than 21 hours in a semester under any circumstances. In order to be classified as a full-time student, one must take no fewer than 1 2 semester hours.

ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS

Sciiedule Clianges

A freshman may not enroll for more than eight hours of laboratory science courses in any one semester except upon the recommendation of the student's adviser.

No student can be registered for courses in another college while being enrolled at Millsaps without the written permission of the dean of the college or the associate dean of the college.

A student cannot change classes, drop classes or take up new classes except by the consent of the faculty adviser. Courses dropped within the first two weeks of a semester do not appear on the student's record. Courses dropped after the first two weeks and no later than one week after the reporting date for mid-semester grades are recorded as W.P. (withdrawn passing) or W.F. (withdrawn failing). Courses dropped after this time are recorded as F. If a student drops a course without securing the required approvals, (s)he receives an F.

Witlidrawal

A student desiring to withdraw within any term must obtain permission from the dean or associate dean of the college and file a withdrawal card. No refund will be con- sidered unless this written notice is procured and presented to the Business Office.

Refunds will be made only as outlined under Financial Regulations.

A student who withdraws with permission after the first two weeks of a semester is recorded as W.P. (withdrawn passing) or W.F. (withdrawn failing) in each course. A student who withdraws without permission receives a grade of F in each course.

Enforced withdrawal may result from habitual delinquency in class, or any other circumstance which prevents the student from fulfilling the purpose for which (s)he should have come to college.

The college reserves the right to cancel the registration of any student. In such a case, the pro rata portion of tuition will be returned, except that students withdrawing under discipline forfeit the right to a refund.

No student who withdraws is entitled to a grade report or to a transcript of credits until (s)he has settled accounts in the Business Office.

Academic Suspension

To remain in college a freshman must pass in the first semester six hours of academic work. After the first half-year a student must pass at least nine hours of academic work each semester to continue in college. Furthermore, the maximum number of semesters a student may be on academic probation without suspension is two.

48

Students who are requested not to re-enter because of academic failure may peti- tion in writing for re-admission, but such petition will not be granted unless convincing evidence is presented that the failure was due to unusual causes of a non-recurring nature and that the student will maintain a satisfactory record during the subsequent semester. However, such a student may attend the summer session at Millsaps without a petition.

Academic Probation

Students who pass enough work to remain, but make in any semester a quality index of less than 1 .5 will be placed on probation. Restricted attendance privileges apply for all courses in which students are enrolled.

Students may be removed from probation by making a 2.00 quality index during a regular semester or during a summer session at Millsaps College in which the student is enrolled for at least 1 2 academic hours credit. A student is asked not to re-enroll at Millsaps College if (s)he is on academic probation for two semesters.

Unsatisfactory Academic Progress

A part-time student who makes a quality index of less than 1 .5 in any semester will be notified that he or she is making unsatisfactory academic progress. To be removed from that classification the student must make a 2.0 quality index during a regular semester or summer session.

Class Attendance

Irregular attendance indicates that the student may be having difficulties adjusting to the course or to college. The primary responsibility for counseling students with respect to their absence rests with the faculty member; but, in the following circumstances, the faculty member is expected to report in writing the student's unsatisfactory attendance record to the Office of Records.

1 . For a freshman -whenever the total absences are equal to twice the number of class meetings per week.

2. For any student—

a. When (s)he has been absent three successive class meetings for reasons un- known to the instructor.

b. Whenever a student's absence is such that (s)he is in danger of failing the course.

This reporting of absences is for counseling purposes only, and has no effect on the student's grade.

Individual faculty members decide the manner and extent to which absences alone will affect a student's grade. Each faculty member is expected to outline the policy in writing to each class at the beginning of the semester. This may extend to dismissal from the course with a grade of "F" for reasons solely of absence.

Absences are excusable only by the individual faculty member, but an excused absence does not excuse the student from being responsible for the course work. Ex- planation for a student's absence provided by a parent, medical doctor, or a member of the faculty or administration may be helpful to the faculty member, but such explana- tions are not in themselves excuses. This is particularly important in the case of absences involving missed examinations, late assignments, laboratory sessions and similar sched- uled commitments. Faculty members, however, may not excuse students from atten- dance on the two days preceding and the two days following vacation periods without the express permission of the dean.

Each student is responsible for knowing general attendance policy of the college and the particular policies operative in each class. Further details relating to attendance are in the student handbook.

Permission to make up an examination or alter the time for an examination may be granted only through the vice president and dean of the college. Any special ex- amination, if granted, must be held no later than the sixth week of the next regular semester. A $10 fee will be charged for such an examination, except at the discretion of the vice president and dean of the college in cases of serious illness at the time of the examination. This fee will become a part of the scholarship fund.

49

A student who has been excluded from a course by recommendation of the in- structor may, if (s)he wishes, petition the vice president and dean of the college within one weel( for the privilege of a reinstatement examination. This examination, to be prepared and administered by the instructor, shall cover the work of the course up to that date. A $10 fee will be paid to the Business Office for this privilege, with the fee going to the scholarship fund. Re-entry shall depend upon the examination results. If a student does not petition for re-entry, or if the re-entry is denied, the grade shall be recorded as F.

Exemptions

Students may elect to be exempt from final examinations in the semester in which they complete their comprehensive examinations, but only in those courses in which they have a C average or better. It shall be understood, however, that this exemption does not ensure the student a final grade of C, since daily grades during the last two weeks shall count in the final average. Under no circumstances may a student be ex- empt from any examination in more than one term or semester.

Students may be exempt from final examinations only in the semester in which they complete their comprehensive, scholastic requirements being met.

Seniors may be allowed one special examination in any subject taken and failed in the senior year. Permission for such examination must be secured from the dean or associate dean of the college. Students may request exemption from other re- quirements by petition to the dean of the college.

Student Behavior

Millsaps students are expected to act with honesty and integrity in personal, social and academic relationships, and with consideration and concern for the community, its members, and its property.

The Board of Trustees and the administration affirm the right of the individual to the privacy of his or her room. The use of intoxicating beverages is not a part of, nor does it contribute to, the total educational emphasis of Millsaps College. The Board of Trustees does not approve the use of alcoholic beverages on the Millsaps Campus and does not permit the use of any alcoholic beverages in any public area on the campus. A student may consume alcoholic beverages only within the privacy of his or her room and only in accordance with the state law which prohibits the drinking of beer for those under 18 years of age and any other alcoholic beverage for those under 21 years of age. Regardless of age and state law requirements, no student is allowed to consume alcoholic beverages outside of the confines of a student's room.

Fraternity and sorority facilities are subject to all applicable state laws and city or- dinances. Moreover, in the absence of an expressly granted exception, the display, serving, consumption, or any other use of alcoholic beverages is prohibited on the porches, yards, grounds and other external structures of any such facility.

The Board of Trustees emphasizes that it does not approve of the use of alcoholic beverages on the Millsaps College premises. Consumption of alcoholic beverages in fraternity and sorority facilities or in a student's room must never result in irresponsible behavior or contribute to an environment not conducive to the realization of the primary goals and aims of Millsaps College.

The use, possession or distribution of narcotics or dangerous drugs such as mari- juana and L.S.D., except as expressly allowed by law, is not permitted. Gambling is not permitted on campus.

Disciplinary Regulations

Students guilty of serious infractions of college regulations may be placed on social probation, disciplinary probation, suspension or expulsion at the discretion of the Judicial Council, the dean of student affairs or the president of the college dependent upon the original jurisdiction. Cases involving a recommendation of suspension or expulsion are automatically appealable to the president of the college.

Social Probation

Social probation is a warning to a student or to a campus organization regarding

50

acceptable standards of conduct. Its primary purpose is to provide a period of time for the student or campus organization to demonstrate responsible conduct by college standards.

Disciplinary Probation

Disciplinary probation is the most serious penalty, short of suspension and expul- sion, that can be incurred by a student. During a period of disciplinary probation any further infraction of college regulations will render the student liable to suspension.

Disciplinary Suspension and Disciplinary Expulsion

Suspension is a decision to temporarily separate a student from the college. Expulsion is a decision to permanently separate a student from the college.

A more comprehensive statement of college policy regarding student behavior is contained in the student handbook. Specific regulations pertaining to residence halls and other facets of campus life are available through the Student Affairs Office.

Then, after a brief study of the later Greek works, Hesiod's Works and Days and Descent of the Gods and Appollonius' Voyage of the Argo, it will turn to Vergil's Aeneid, in which the Homeric poems are transformed in the service of a quite different but no less important vision of man.

Objective of the School of Management. The objective of the School of Manage- ment is to provide nnanagerial and professional leadership to the larger society by educating future leaders, in business and public administration and in the accounting profession by providing consulting and other services to the community, and ex- panding the body of knowledge in the field of management. With respect to the educa- tional mission, our goals are to develop a general management outlook toward organiza- tions and the changing environment they face; to foster the ability to organize informa- tion for analysis as the basis for making decisions; to instill standards of professional behavior which are consistent with the legitimate expectations of society; and to pro- vide technical expertise required for entry-level positions and leadership attributes necessary to attain positions in general management.

Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA). Accounting and business ad- ministration majors must complete additional requirements for the Bachelor of Business Administration degree (B.B.A.). Economics majors must complete additional requirements for either a B.S. or B.A. degree. The requirements for a major in accounting or in business administration are in addition to courses which may be used to satisfy the minimum college requirements for all degrees and cannot be used to satisfy both areas. Majors must make a grade of C or better in all courses required by the School of Management.

At least 54 hours must be earned in courses offered by the School of Management and at least 51 hours must be earned outside the School of Management.

Coursework at the 300-level or above may be taken only by students who have completed at least 52 semester hours.

Students pursuing the B.B.A. degree are encouraged to add depth in a non-business area that a minor can provide. Minors which would be of particular value to students in the School of Management are available in computer studies, modern languages, English, chemistry, political science, psychology, and biology.

Transfer Credit: Transfer students should normally expect to satisfy the statistics requirement (Administration 275) at Millsaps. The typical first six hours of accounting principles will normally satisfy the department's 281-282 requirement. The typical six hours of sophomore economics will normally satisfy the Economics 201-202 require- ment. Transfer students will be required to satisfactorily complete at least 18 hours of courses offered by the School of Management to meet the requirement for the BBA degree and the major regardless of the specific requirements satisfied by transfer hours. In some instances this may mean repeating certain transferred, upper-division courses. Students should not expect to transfer credit in courses numbered at the 300-level or above from a community college to Millsaps.
