GENERAL INFORMATION
HISTORY
In 1903, the committee on laws and disciplines of the Board of Trustees authorized the organization of a School of Pharmacy at The University of Goergia at Ath- ens. At the same time, Dr. S. C. Benedict was appointed to the chair of Materia Medica in the school. Space was allocated in Terrell Hall for the school and six students enrolled for the 1904-1905 year. The educational objec- tive of those six registrants was to matriculate for two years and receive a Ph.G. degree.
In January 1907, due to an illness of Dr. Benedict, Mr. Robert C. Wilson was elected Instructor in Pharmacy to relieve Dr. Benedict of many of the classroom activities. Dr. Benedict remained as dean until 1914, when Profes- sor Wilson was placed in charge of the Department of Pharmacy as director. In 1924, Professor Wilson became dean of the School of Pharmacy and made his first report to the Board of Trustees in that capacity. He noted, for the first time, that the school had included women stu- dents. Dean Wilson's continuous struggle to improve pharmacy in Georgia led to development of the first four year pharmacy degree in the nation, beginning in 1926. In 1939, the school moved to quarters in New College and was accredited by the American Council on Pharma- ceutical Education, a rating which has been maintained continuously since that time.
Upon Dean Wilson's retirement in 1948, Dr. Kenneth L. Waters was named dean of the School of Pharmacy. Under Dean Waters' guidance the school grew in both undergraduate and graduate enrollment to the point where a new facility was deemed essential. The building was completed in 1964. One year later, the first students of the five year pharmacy program graduated.

PURPOSE
The purpose of The University of Georgia School of Phar- macy is to provide for the comprehensive academic needs of the profession of pharmacy. Manpower needs of the profession are supplied through the school's un- dergraduate education program, which prepares stu- dents for the practice of pharmacy, and through its graduate program, which prepares individuals for profes- sional specialization and for a career in teaching and research. The postgraduate educational needs of the profession are met by the school's continuing education and service programs. Faculty research supports all of these programs and contributes to the advancement of the body of pharmaceutical knowledge.
PROGRAM OF STUDY AND RESIDENCE
The Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy degree is awarded to students who successfully complete a five year study of prescribed courses. The first two years (pre-pharmacy) may be completed at any accredited institution of higher education. The last three years (professional) must be in residence at the School of Pharmacy. Nine quarters of residence in the professional program are required by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education.
The University of Georgia Graduate School offers the degree Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in various specialty areas of the pharmacy school. (See Graduate School Bulletin.)
FACILITIES
The School of Pharmacy is housed in facilities completed and occupied in the spring of 1964. Two basic concepts were incorporated into the design of the new building: 1) that it should be a functional facility conducive to learning; 2) that as many laboratory and research areas as possible should be on display. The first was considered basic to any educational building; the second was in- tended to stimulate interest in pharmacy among non- pharmacy students and interest in graduate work among undergraduate students.
The three floors and penthouse of the building contain a total of 96,000 square feet of space. The overall-dimen- sions of the structure are 300 ft. by 96 ft. Basic construc- tion is reinforced concrete and concrete block, with exterior windows of gray-tinted glass. The cost of con- struction and equipment was in excess of two million dollars.
The building is heated and air-conditioned by three systems serving the auditorium, main building, and ani- mal quarters, respectively. In addition, separate tempera- ture control of the exterior halls allows these to be used as buffer zones both in winter and in summer. Utilities supplied throughout the building include electricity, gas, water, circulating hot water, distilled water, steam, com- pressed air, and vacuum. Communications are served by an internal telephone and paging system in all areas, plus public telephone service in faculty offices.
INTERNSHIP
In order to become licensed to practice pharmacy in the state of Georgia, 1500 hours of full time internship must be served under the supervision of a pharmacist. Credit for internship may be received only after a student has completed his pre-pharmacy work. Students are encour- aged to serve internship during the summers. Four hun- dred hours of credit toward internship will be given for work performed while registered for academic credit in an authorized clinical program.
All intern pharmacists must notify the Joint Secretary, State Examining Boards, 165 Pryor Street, S. W., Atlanta, Georgia. The pharmacist supervising the intern must also notify the joint secretary that the intern is under his supervision. Termination of any portion of the internship must be reported by the pharmacist and the intern

ADMISSIONS
To be admitted to the professional program in the School of Pharmacy, a student must complete the pre-pharmacy requirements. At The University of Georgia, the pre- pharmacy program is administered through the College of Arts and Sciences. The two years of pre-pharmacy education require satisfactory completion of not less than 90 quarter hours of academic work in the arts and sciences. In addition, students must meet the general requirements for physical education. Students with high academic averages, having 90 hours of credit, may be admitted with not more than 5 quarter hours of deficien- cies in non-science required courses, provided such de- ficiencies are cleared with their pre-pharmacy adviser and are completed during their first professional year.
Application to the School of Pharmacy should be sub- mitted by February 1. Students may make application to the Dean of the School of Pharmacy when they have completed four quarters of work and are currently en- rolled for 15 hours. Transcripts showing all college work taken should accompany the application.
In considering applications for admission to the School of Pharmacy, preference will be given to those persons having a 2.5 or above grade point average. Appli- cants must have earned a minimum average of 2.0 on all work taken. It is desirable that each applicant take the Pharmacy Aptitude Test and attend a personal interview prior to entering the school.
The University of Georgia complies with the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

REGULATIONS
HOURS
In order to receive the Bachelor of Science degree in the School of Pharmacy, a student must have completed not less than 234 quarter hours of work with a cumulative average of at least 2.0.
CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
Students will be classified as first (6), second (7), and third (8) year professional students. To be so classified, a student must take the required courses and maintain the required academic average.
ACADEMIC LOAD
All professional students in the School of Pharmacy must take a minimum academic load of twelve credit hours per quarter unless excused by the dean.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS
In addition to the general University requirements rela- tive to scholarship, the following requirements must be met by all pharmacy students.
Effective fall quarter, 1971, all first professional year students must have earned a minimum grade point average of 1.8 in not more than four quarters constituting their first professional year. Progress to the second pro- fessional year will not be allowed unless the minimum grade point average is met or exceeded. During the first four quarters in the pharmacy school students must com- plete all deficiencies in pre-pharmacy courses as well as all 300-numbered pharmacy courses, the organic chemis- try sequence and two microbiology courses.
Condition for readmission and continuance in the pharmacy program will be set during a personal inter- view with the pharmacy faculty academic committee.
Similarly, all students must have earned at least a 2.00 average since entering the School of Pharmacy by the end of their second professional year in order to progress to the third professional year.
A student will not be permitted to register for the same pharmacy course more than twice within any twelve month school year.
At least a grade of 2.0 must be earned in all required pharmacy courses before credit for the course will be given toward graduation.
LIMITATION OF STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
Since it is realized that classroom work must receive major emphasis in the student's program for securing an education, he should not accept employment which will interfere with his scholastic program. A student who makes a poor scholastic record as a result of working will be required to reduce his work load.
ACADEMIC PREPARATION
Students are expected to maintain a schedule of home study so they are prepared for daily classes and are al- ways up to date in their course work. This requires stu- dents to establish early study habits best suited to their own capabilities and to adjust to the demands of the prescribed curriculum. The successful study of pharmacy necessitates the assimilation of a large amount of subject matter. The curriculum is arranged in a sequence to in- sure a progression of courses which result in meaningful correlation between the basic sciences and clinical areas of study and application. Courses do not end with final examinations each quarter, but supplement all others in the total professional curriculum.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
Regular attendance at classes, laboratories (including clinics) and examinations is a student obligation, and the unexcused absence, or "cut," is not recognized as a stu-
The School ol Phjrm.ii \ 17
dent privilege by the faculty of the School of Pharmacy. The student is expected to give reason for his absence to his individual instructor and to make up all work missed due to the absence. If a student is absent for five consec- utive class meetings, the instructor will determine the reason and report the student to the dean's office, with a record of the total absences and the tentative grade earned in the class to date.
Excessive Absences
If the student, after being counseled and reminded of the seriousness of his absences, shows insufficient im- provement in class attendance, the instructor may re- quest his withdrawal from the course and assign a "WF" grade.
Excused Absences
Under certain conditions and at the discretion of the dean, absences may be excused. Students anticipating absences or who experience unanticipated absences should report such to the dean's office as soon as practi- cal before or after the absence, as appropriate.
DRESS
Students of pharmacy are expected to dress neatly and to otherwise exemplify professional men and women at all times.
ATTITUDE AND CONDUCT
A student whose attitude, actions or conduct, either on or off campus, are of a type which could discredit him- self, the School of Pharmacy, The University of Georgia, and/or the pharmacy profession shall be subject to dis- missal from the School of Pharmacy. Students in the school are also governed by the rules and regulations of The University of Georgia as outlined in the current gen- eral catalog. Special attention is directed to provisions in the general catalog and the student handbook concern- ing class attendance.
Any student dismissed from the school, but not by the University, may within 30 days submit a written request to the school's academic committee for a review of his case. Each student is limited to one such review. The reviewing board's decision, after review by the dean, is final.
Applicants for admission to the School of Pharmacy who are known to have been officially dismissed from any pharmacy school will not be accepted. A student who gains entrance to the school by misrepresentation of facts may be immediately dismissed.
A student who was dismissed for academic reasons may apply for re-admission to the school after proper consultation with his academic counselor. His applica- tion, however, will be considered as a first application along with those of other new applicants.

ACADEMIC PROBATION
A student is placed on academic probation at the end of any quarter in which his cumulative grade point average is below 2.0. A student may remove himself from aca- demic probation by achieving a 2.0 cumulative average.
ACADEMIC DISMISSAL
After a student has been enrolled for three or more quar- ters, he is dismissed from the University if his cumulative average is below that required for the following desig- nated number of total hours attempted1

A student will not be subject to dismissal from the University for academic deficiencies until he has been enrolled for three or more quarters. A student will be considered enrolled for any quarter in which he received a grade or grades other than a W.
A student will not be dismissed from the University for academic reasons if he earned an average of 2.3 or higher on all hours attempted for the last quarter in residence, provided he was enrolled for a minimum of 10 hours for that quarter.
A student who withdraws from a course during the first half of a quarter is assigned a grade of W or WF by the instructor. After midway in a quarter (the date to be specified in the Schedule of Classes), a student who withdraws from a course is assigned a grade of WF, ex- cept in those cases in which the student is doing satisfac- tory work.
Total hours attempted consist of all hours attempted at the University (including all hours with grades of F and WF), plus all hours transferred to the University. Grades of I and W are not included in hours attempted.
Cumulative grade average is based on all residence hours attempted at the University exclusive of S and U grades. Grades of WF are computed as F. Grades of I not removed by the end of the first quarter in residence after receiving the I grade become an F.
Upon receiving a first dismissal, a student will be sus- pended from the University for a minimum of two quar- ters. At the end of the suspension, readmission may be granted at the discretion of the academic dean.
After a second dismissal, only through appeal to the University faculty executive committee can permission to return to the University be granted. A minimum of one calendar year must elapse before a student on second dismissal may petition for readmission.
^Unless he earned an average of 2.3 or higher on all hours at- tempted for the last quarter in residence and was enrolled for a minimum of 10 hours for that quarter.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS HONOR SOCIETIES
During their academic career in the School of Pharmacy students are encouraged to begin to develop interest in professional activities. The primary route by which this interest may be expanded is through the Student Phar- maceutical Association which is affiliated with both the Georgia and American Pharmaceutical Associations. Ac- tive participation in this student function will not only stimulate interest in the profession but develop leader- ship and character.
Efforts to advance the profession of pharmacy educa- tionally, fraternally and socially by instilling in its mem- bers a respect for diligence, sincerity and brotherhood led to the installation of chapters of two professional fraternities, Phi Delta Chi and Kappa Psi and a sorority, Lambda Kappa Sigma, in the School of Pharmacy. These organizations may also assist members in developing leadership characteristics and accepting responsibilities. They sponsor activities beneficial to the school, the Uni- versity and the profession.
Pharmacy students who comprise the top fifteen percent of their class academically may be invited to join Rho Chi, the national honorary pharmaceutical society. The invitation is usually extended during the last quarter of the second professional year. Pharmacy students are also eligible for membership in Phi Kappa Phi, national honor society, and various leadership societies on campus.
AWARDS
Beginning in 1948 and continuing annually thereafter, the School of Pharmacy has sponsored an awards ban- quet at which outstanding academic achievement, lead- ership and devotion to the profession by students are recognized. These awards may be scholarships, trophies, certificates, books or monetary. By design, the majority of the awards presented at the banquet are to seniors but some are designated for first and second year students.
