The University System of Georgia
The University System of Georgia includes 34 state-sponsored, public institutions located throughout Georgia — 4 universities, 14 senior col- leges and 16 junior colleges.
A 15-member constitutional Board of Re- gents— one from each of the state's 10 Congres- sional Districts and five from the state-at-large — governs the University System which was estab- lished in 1932. Board members are appointed by the Governor, subject to state senate confirma- tion, for seven year terms.
The Chairperson, the Vice Chairperson, and other officers of the Board are elected by its mem- bership. The Chancellor, who is not a Board member, is the chief executive officer of the Board and chief administrative officer of the University System.
The overall programs and services of the Uni- versity System are offered through three major components: Instruction; Public Service/Continu- ing Education; Research.
INSTRUCTION includes programs of study leading to degrees, ranging from the associate (2-year) to the doctoral level, and certificates.
Requirements for admission to instructional programs are set by institutions, pursuant to policies of the Board of Regents which sets minimum academic standards and leaves each institution the prerogative of establishing higher standards. Application for admission should be made directly to institutions.
A Core Curriculum, defining freshman and sophomore courses for students who seek de- grees beyond the associate level, is in effect for all University System institutions. This 90-hour Cur- riculum includes 60 in general education — human- ities, mathematics, natural and social sciences — and 30 in the student's chosen major area. It fa- cilitates transfer of freshman and sophomore cred- its within the University System.
PUBLIC SERVICE/CONTINUING EDUCA- TION includes non-degree programs, special college-degree-credit courses, and institutional outreach programs.
Non-degree activities would include short courses, conferences, seminars, lectures and consultative services, in many interest areas. These activities, usually of short duration, are de- signed to meet special educational, informational and cultural needs of people served by institutions.
All institutions conduct some non-degree public service/continuing education. College-degree- credit courses are typically offered through exten- sion center programs and teacher education con- sortiums.
RESEARCH encompasses investigations con- ducted for the discovery and application of knowl- edge. These investigations include clearly defined projects in some cases and non-programmatic ac- tivities in other cases. Research is conducted on campuses and at other locations and projects re- lated to a large variety of educational objectives and societal needs. Most research is conducted by the 4 universities though some senior colleges also have research efforts underway.
Board of Regents' policies for government, management and control of the University System and the Chancellor's administrative actions pro-
:m.
The College of Pharmacy 15
vide institutions a high degree of autonomy. The President is the executive head of each institution and is recommended by the Chancellor and ap- pointed by the Board.
The University System Advisory Council, with 34 committees, engenders continual dialogue on major academic and administrative matters and makes recommendations to the Chancellor, who transmits them to the Board as appropriate, re- garding academic and administrative operations in the System. The Council consists of the Chancel- lor, the Vice Chancellor, and all Presidents as vot- ing members. It includes other officials of institu- tions as nonvoting members. The Council's 21 academic and 13 administrative committees are composed of institutional representatives, typically one from each unit, and deal with matters of Sys- tem-wide application.
State appropriations for the University System are requested by and made to the Board of Re- gents. Allocations of the appropriations are made by the Board to institutions. Approximately 52 per- cent of state appropriations are allocated for in- struction. In fiscal 1980-81, the percentages of all funds for instruction showed 77 percent from state appropriations, 20 percent from student fees and 3 percent from other internal income.
Matriculation fees and nonresident tuition fees for students at all institutions are established by the Board of Regents. All students pay matriculation fees while out-of-state students pay nonresident tuition in addition. Other fees for student services and activities are established by institutions, sub- ject to Board of Regents' approval. Non- mandatory fees established by institutions are sub- ject to approval of the Board of Regents office.

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 Georgia at Athens. At the same time. Dr. S. C. Benedict was appointed to the chair of Materia Medica in the School. Space was allocated in Ter- rell Hall for the School and six students enrolled for the 1904-1905 year. The educational objective 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. Bene- dict, 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 Professor Wilson was placed in charge of the Department of Pharmacy as director.
Dean Wilson's continuous struggle to improve pharmacy in Georgia led to development of the first four-year required 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 Pharmaceutical 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's guidance the school grew 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.
Upon Dean Waters's retirement in 1977. Dr. Howard C. Ansel was named Dean. As a result of the broadening of the scope of its programs the School title was changed to College of Pharmacy in 1983.
PURPOSE
The purpose of The University of Georgia College of Pharmacy is to provide for the comprehensive academic needs of the profession of pharmacy. Manpower needs of the profession are supplied through the College's professional baccalaureate and doctor of pharmacy education programs, which prepare students for the practice of phar-
macy, and through its graduate program, which prepares individuals for professional specializa- tion and for a career in teaching and research. The postgraduate educational needs of the profession are met by the College's continuing education and service programs. Faculty research supports all of these programs and contributes to the advance- ment of the body of pharmaceutical knowledge.
FACILITIES
The College 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, and 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 intended
The College of Pharmacy 9
to stimulate interest in pharmacy among non- pharmacy students and interest in graduate work among professional baccalaureate students.
The three floors and penthouse of the building contain a total of 96,000 square feet of space.
phasis is placed on clinical pharmacy practice.
The University of Georgia Graduate School of- fers the Master of Science degree and Doctor of Philosophy degree in various specialty areas of the College of Pharmacy.
PROGRAMS OF STUDY
The Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy degree is awarded to students who successfully complete the 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 resi- dence at the College of Pharmacy. Nine quarters of residence in the professional baccalaureate program are required by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education. The professional bac- calaureate program is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education.
The Doctor of Pharmacy degree is awarded to students who have satisfactorily completed a six quarter post baccalaureate program of study. Em-
ADMISSION TO THE BACCALAUREATE PROGRAM
To be admitted to the professional baccalaureate program in the College of Pharmacy, a student must complete pre-pharmacy requirements. At The University of Georgia, the pre-pharmacy pro- gram 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 count- ing toward the pharmacy degree. In addition, stu- dents must meet the general requirements for physical education.
Applicants to the professional baccalaureate program must take the Pharmacy College Admis- sion Test (PCAT). The fall offering date is the pre- ferred time. In addition to the applicant's grade
10/The University of Georgia Bulletin
point average, the selection process will utilize the PCAT scores and recommendations. The College of Pharmacy accepts students into its professional baccalaureate program for either summer or fall quarter. Those entering in the summer are ex- pected to follow a continuous program, i.e., nine consecutive quarters.
Application to the College of Pharmacy should be submitted by April 15. Transcripts showing all college work taken should accompany the applica- tion. Students may make application to the Dean of the College of Pharmacy when they have com- pleted four quarters of academic work.
Applicants for admission to the College of Pharmacy who are known to have been officially dismissed from another pharmacy school will not be accepted. A student who gains entrance to the College by misrepresentation of facts may be dis- missed immediately.

Regulations
HOURS
In order to receive the Bachelor of Science degree from the College of Pharmacy, a student must have earned not less than 231 quarter hours of required credit, exclusive of physical education, with a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0.
ACADEMIC LOAD
All baccalaureate students in the College of Phar- macy must take a minimum academic load of twelve credit hours per quarter for a minimum of nine quarters unless excused by the dean.
PHARMACY EXTERNSHIP AND CLINICAL PROGRAMS
As a part of the baccalaureate curriculum, phar- macy students are required to participate in ex- ternship and clinical programs which provide the student with educational experiences in practice settings such as community pharmacies, hospital pharmacies, clinics, and teaching hospitals. Dur- ing the course of their academic program, stu- dents may be required to obtain their externship and/or clinical education at an out-of-town location deemed by the faculty to be most suitable for the desired experience and training. Among the facili- ties presently being used are the teaching hospi- tals and clinics associated with the Medical Col- lege of Georgia, located in Augusta.
PHARMACY INTERNSHIP
In order to become licensed to practice pharmacy in the state of Georgia, 1500 hours of internship must be earned as a full-time employee under the supervision of a pharmacist. Credit for internship may be received only after a student has been accepted into a College of Pharmacy. Students are encouraged to satisfy internship requirements dur- ing the summers. A total of 480 hours of credit toward internship will be awarded for work per- formed while registered for academic credit in an authorized externship program. An intern license is required for participation in the externship pro- gram.
All intern pharmacists must contact the Joint Secretary, State Examining Boards, 166 Pryor Street, S.W., Atlanta, Georgia 30303 in order to receive a license. The pharmacist supervising the intern must also notify the joint secretary that the intern is under his/her supervision.
SCHOLARSHIP REQUIREMENTS
In addition to the general University requirements relative to scholarship, the following requirements must be met by all baccalaureate students.
All first professional year students must have earned a minimum grade point average of 1.8 in all professional and related courses in order to pro- gress to the second professional year.
Similarly, all second year pharmacy students must have earned at least a 2.0 average since entering the College of Pharmacy in order to pro- gress to the third professional year.
A student must earn a grade of at least 2.0 in all required PHR courses in order to receive gradua- tion credit.*
For students in academic difficulty, conditions for readmission and continuance in the pharmacy program will be set during a personal interview with the dean and/or the Pharmacy Faculty Academic Committee.
REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM
This is a standard test of English reading and com- position skills of the University System of Georgia. All students seeking an undergraduate degree must pass the exam during their sophomore year. Transfer students to the University System schools must take the test during their first quarter in residence. Failure of the test will require remedi- ation. Students having a prior baccalaureate de- gree from a regionally accredited institution may be exempt from the test.
LIMITATION OF STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
Since it is realized that classroom work must re- ceive major emphasis by all students, employment
This includes MIB 402, STA 300, ZOO 312-312L and all pharmacy courses.
12 /The University of Georgia Bulletin
which will interfere with their scholastic program should not be undertaken. Students who make a poor scholastic record as a result of working will be required to reduce their work load.
ACADEMIC PREPARATION
Students are expected to maintain a schedule of home study so they are prepared for daily classes and are always up-to-date in their coursework. This requires students to establish early study habits best suited to their own capabilities and to adjust to the demands of the prescribed cur- riculum. The successful study of pharmacy neces- sitates the assimilation of a large amount of subject matter. The curriculum is arranged in a sequence to insure a progression of courses which results in a meaningful correlation between the basic sci- ences and clinical areas of study and application. Courses do not end with final examinations each quarter, but supplement all others in the total pro- fessional curriculum.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
Regular attendance at classes, laboratories (in- cluding clinics) and examinations is a student obli-
gation, and the unexcused absence, or "cut." is not recognized as a student privilege by the faculty of the College of Pharmacy. Students are expected to give reason for their absence to individual in- structors and to make up all work missed due to the absence. Individual faculty will set the attendance standards for each class.
DRESS
Students of pharmacy are expected to dress neatly and professionally at all times. Certain classes and laboratories may require specific attire.
ATTITUDE AND CONDUCT
Students who conduct themselves, either person- ally or professionally, in a manner unbecoming a professional person may be subject to dismissal from the program. Students in the College are also governed by the rules and regulations of the Uni- versity. Special attention is directed to the general Undergraduate Bulletin and to the Student Hand- book.

Student Activities
PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS
During their academic career in the College of Pharmacy, students are encouraged to begin to develop interest in professional activities. The primary route by which this interest may be ex- panded is through the Student Pharmaceutical Association which is affiliated with both the Geor- gia and American Pharmaceutical Associations. Active participation in this student function will not only stimulate interest in the profession but de- velop leadership and character.
Efforts to advance the pharmacy profession educationally, fraternally, and socially led to the installation of chapters of two professional frater- nities, Phi Delta Chi and Kappa Psi; a sorority, Lambda Kappa Sigma; and a leadership fraternity, Phi Lambda Sigma. These organizations instill in their members a respect for diligence, sincerity, and brotherhood and assist in developing leader- ship characteristics. They sponsor activities ben- eficial to the College, the University, and the pro- fession.
HONOR SOCIETIES
Pharmacy students who comprise the top twenty percent of their class academically may be invited to join Rho Chi, the national honorary pharmaceu- tical society. The invitation is usually extended dur- ing the last quarter of the second professional year. Pharmacy students are also eligible for membership in Phi Kappa Phi national honor soci- ety and various leadership societies on campus.
AWARDS
Beginning in 1948 and continuing annually thereaf- ter, the College of Pharmacy has sponsored an awards banquet at which outstanding academic achievement, leadership and devotion to the pro- fession 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.
