COLLEGE PROFILE
COLLEGE HISTORY
Officials of the East Pennsylvania Conference of the Church of the
United Brethren in Christ were acutely embarrassed in the spring of 1866.
Five public-spirited citizens of the town of Annville had come to Con-
ference on February 22 and offered as a gift the Annville Academy build-
ing on Main Street, which they had bought for $4,500, providing that the
Conference would establish and maintain there forever an institution of
learning of high grade. The gift was accepted. The name Lebanon Valley
College was chosen. It was decided to lease the property to someone
qualified to operate a school. The opening date was set — May 7. Planning
then came to a stop, for they could find no one to take the lease.
That was the situation seven weeks before the opening date, accord-
ing to George Washington Miles Rigor, whose short account is the earliest
extant history of Lebanon Valley College. There was no college graduate
in the whole Conference, and a poll of Otterbein College graduates failed
to turn up a prospect. Rigor, a United Brethren minister who had at-
tended college for only three years, stepped into the breach. He enlisted
the cooperation of a neighbor, Thomas R. Vickroy, a Methodist minister
and graduate of Dickinson College. They took over the lease as partners
for the next five years, Vickroy to run the school and Rigor to act as agent.
The building was readied and Lebanon Valley College opened on May
7, as scheduled, with 49 students enrolled. From its first day it was co-
educational.
President Vickroy's term was marked by action. Eleven acres were
added to the "lot and a half of ground" conveyed by the original deed.
A spacious four-story building was erected. A charter was granted by the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. A faculty was hired. A complete college
curriculum, based on the classics but including music and art, was es-
tablished, and two classes were graduated before Vickroy gave up his
lease in 1871. The college was not leased again but continued operations
through a Board of Trustees.
The five presidents during the next 25 years had great difficulty in
keeping the college financially afloat, due to lack of support ranging from
apathy to open opposition. There was some progress. A library was es-
tablished in 1874, and a college newspaper appeared in 1888. However,
in the fall of 1896, the school was debt-ridden, living from hand to mouth,
with an enrollment of only 80.
The administration of President Hervin U. Roop, starting in 1897,
marked the first real period of expansion. Under his leadership, five new
buildings were erected, including a library donated by Andrew Carnegie,
and the Administration Building was re-built after a disastrous fire on
Christmas Eve, 1904. By 1905, enrollment had soared to 470, with a
faculty of 23.
Loss of public confidence and financial support prompted Roop's
resignation in 1905, and the college faced its darkest days. Bankruptcy
was averted by the keen business sense and personal generosity of Presi-
dent Lawrence Keister, who served from 1907 to 1912.
President George D. Gossard finally gave the college stability when
he achieved for it accreditation and a million-dollar endowment fund, the
income from which was to form the financial cushion dreamed of by all
the presidents before him. By the end of his 20-year term in 1932, there
were 653 students and 32 faculty members. Most important, the Con-
servatory of Music was accredited by the Commonwealth for its program
in public school music, marking the start of an outstanding academic de-
partment.
Following Dr. Gossard's death in 1932, Dr. Clyde A. Lynch faced
a series of external crises which lasted throughout his 18 years as presi-
dent. The stock market crash shrank the handsome endowment raised by
his predecessor. The depression of the 1930's reduced the enrollment, and
World War II lowered it still further; the post-war influx of veterans then
stretched it to more than capacity. In spite of these trials, Dr. Lynch's
administration began buying property adjacent to the campus to allow
for further expansion. It also raised over a half-million dollars, part of
which was to be used for a new physical education building. This build-
ing, still unfinished at the time of Lynch's death in 1950, was named in his
honor upon completion.
The twelfth president of the college, Frederic K. Miller, served for
almost 17 years. During his term, inflation caused mushrooming costs, but
the so-called "tidal wave of students" made possible selective admissions.
The greatest physical expansion in the history of the college occurred,
with seven new buildings erected and several renovated. Two major fund-
raising drives were concluded successfully. Enrollment increased 60%,
with a corresponding increase in faculty and administrative staff. The
centennial of the founding of the college was observed by a year-long
series of events.
On April 1, 1967, Dr. Miller retired, and Allan W. Mund, president of
the Board of Trustees, became acting president. It was not until February
3, 1968, that Frederick P. Sample was elected by the board to become
thirteenth president of Lebanon Valley College. When Dr. Sample as-
sumed office on September 1, 1968, Lebanon Valley College faced its sec-
ond century as a fully-accredited, church-related, coeducational college
of the liberal arts, occupying a 35-acre campus of 26 buildings, and sup-
porting an enrollment of 900 and a full-time faculty of 58. In the years
since then, the college has continued to grow in acres and buildings, in
students and faculty. This growth is reaching its culmination in the 1970's
with the multi-million dollar ambitions of the Fund for Fulfillment.
Just as the college has changed through the years, so has the Church
of the United Brethren in Christ which gave it birth and offered its sup-
port. Organized in 1800 as the first Christian church indigenous to the
United States, the denomination merged with the Evangelical Church to
become the Evangelical United Brethren Church in 1946. In April, 1968,
this body joined with the Methodist Church to form the United Meth-
odist Church.
In looking to its second century, Lebanon Valley College is con-
scious of the dream of its forefathers that it be "an institution of learning
of high grade." It aims to be essentially what it is now, a relatively small
college of the liberal arts and sciences that takes its Christian origins
seriously.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Lebanon Valley College affirms its Christian origins by maintaining
affiliation with the United Methodist Church and by recognizing the
Christian faith as the perspective for its policies. Both the Christian
spirit, which encourages the unhampered search for truth, and the aca-
demic program, which gives form to the search for truth, combine to
generate free and responsible inquiry by students and faculty.
In accordance with the purposes of its founders, Lebanon Valley
College seeks to provide an atmosphere in which the student can respond
creatively to the contemporary world. Each person is encouraged (1) to
develop a genuine concern for cooperative living and community ser-
vice; (2) to attain a heightened sense of moral and spiritual values
through a deepened awareness of how people have thought of themselves
in relation to nature, to society, and to God; (3) to appreciate the close
and unmistakable relationship among rational thought, creative imagina-
tion, and moral commitment; and (4) to deal candidly and intelligently
with the past, the present, and the future and their interrelationship.
The programs of the College are designed to provide a demanding
as well as a rewarding encounter with the means necessary to achieve
the discovery of self and society: consideration of humanity's most sig-
nificant ideas and accomplishments; development of logical thought and
clear communication; practice in precise analysis and effective per-
formance. The academic, social, religious, and aesthetic experiences
blend to create the atmosphere of the College in a way that fosters en-
livened curiosity, discipline of self, and excitement about ideas that are
the hallmark of the educated individual.
Lebanon Valley College, with approximately one thousand students
and a low-student-faculty ratio, in giving life to the concept of liberal
arts as expressed in the preceding paragraphs has chosen to maintain
an educational institution which is academically strong, guided by the
Christian faith, and small enough to give personal attention to all stu-
dents.

Lebanon Valley College Board of Trustees
SUPPORT AND CONTROL
Lebanon Valley College receives support authorized by the General
Conference of the United Methodist Church, individual congregations of
the denomination in the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference and the Cen-
tral Pennsylvania Conference, endowments, and the Pennsylvania Foun-
dation for Independent Colleges. Also, since at Lebanon Valley College
as at most other institutions of higher learning the tuition and other an-
nual charges paid by the student do not cover the total cost of his educa-
tion, additional income is derived through the Lebanon Valley College
Fund. The Fund is supported by industry, alumni, the Board of Trustees,
parents of students, and other friends of the college.
Total assets of Lebanon Valley College are approximately $19,600,000,
including endowment funds of about $3,200,000. Aside from general en-
dowment income available for unrestricted purposes, there are a number
of special funds designated for specific uses such as professorships, schol-
arships, and the library.
Control of the college is vested in a Board of Trustees composed of
49 elected members, 24 of whom represent church conferences; 5 of whom
represent the alumni of the institution; 5 of whom represent the faculty;
and 15 of whom, including 3 students, are elected at large.

standing to the director of admissions. If requested, he must provide
copies of the appropriate catalogs for the years of attendance at the other
institution or institutions.
Credits are accepted for transfer provided that the grades received
are C- (1.7) or better and the work is equivalent or similar to work offered
at Lebanon Valley College. Grades thus transferred count for hours only,
not for quality points.
Students, with the exception of those in the medical technology and
nursing programs, who transfer from two-year institutions are required
to earn at least 60 hours of credit from a four-year institution for grad-
uation. A minimum of 30 hours must be taken at Lebanon Valley Col-
lege by all students to meet the residence requirement.
Transfer students may be required to take placement examinations
to demonstrate adequate preparation for advanced courses at Lebanon
Valley College.
Subject to the conditions listed in the second paragraph, Lebanon
Valley College will recognize for transfer credit a maximum of 15 hours
of USAFI course work provided such credit is recommended by the
American Council on Education's publication, A Guide to the Evaluation
of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services.
Credit will not be granted for correspondence courses.
COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM (CLEP)
Credit is granted for acceptable achievement on such Subject Exami-
nations of the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) as are ap-
proved by the appropriate College department and the Curriculum
Committee. Students shall have achieved a scaled score of 50 or better on
the objective section and shall have earned a grade of C or better, as de-
termined by the appropriate department, on the essay section of the
examination.
Examinations may be taken prior to admission or after a student has

ceiving credit should consult with the Office of Admissions; current stu-
dents should consult with the Vice President and Dean of the College.

Director, College Level Examination Program, P.O. Box 1821, Princeton,
NJ 08540, for a CLEP Bulletin of Information for Candidates, which
provides information on examinations and the dates and locations of test
administrations.

Advanced placement and/or credit in certain areas may be granted
to entering students who make scores of 3, 4, or 5 on the College Board
Advanced Placement examination.
Advanced placement without credit may be granted on the basis of
the Achievement Tests of the College Board Examinations or such other
proficiency tests as may be determined by the assistant dean of the col-
lege and by the chairman of the department in which advanced placement
is sought.
STUDENT FINANCES
Lebanon Valley College is a private, non-profit institution. It derives
its financial support from endowment and gifts from the United Method-
ist Church, alumni, industry, friends, and from the tuition, fees, and
other charges paid by the students. The cost to the student is maintained
at a level consistent with adequate facilities and high quality instruction.
Fees and Deposits
An application fee of SI 5.00 which is not refundable is charged each
applicant against the cost of processing his application for admission.
An admission deposit of $100.00, payable within ten days of notification
of acceptance, is required of all new (including transfer) students. Until
this deposit is paid the student is not guaranteed a place in the entering
class. The admission deposit is not refundable; it will be applied to the
student's account upon registration.

Residence Halls
Residence hall rooms are reserved only for those returning students
who make an advance room reservation deposit of $50.00. (Receipt must
be presented at the time of room sign-up which occurs during April.)
Occupants must pay for any breakage or loss of furniture, or any
other damage for which they are responsible. Damage not assignable to
an individual occupant may be prorated to accounts of occupants within
the responsible area (wing, hall, floor, dorm, etc.).
Each room in the men's residence halls is furnished with chests of
drawers, book case, beds, mattresses, chairs, and study tables. Drapes are
provided in Funkhouser, Hammond, and Keister Halls. Students must
provide bedding, rugs, lamps, and all other furnishings.
Each room in the women's residence halls is furnished with beds,
mattresses, chairs, dressers, book case, and study tables. Drapes are pro-
vided in Mary Green and Vickroy Halls. Other desired furnishings must
be supplied by the student.
Students rooming in residence halls may not sublet their rooms to
commuting students or to others.
Since Lebanon Valley College is primarily a boarding institution, all
students are required to live in college-owned or controlled residence
halls. Exceptions to the above are: married students, students living with
immediate relatives, or those living in their own homes who commute
daily to the campus.
19
Should vacancies occur in any of the residence halls, the college re-
serves the right to require students rooming in the community to move
into a residence hall.
The college reserves the right to close all residence halls during vaca-
tions and between semesters.
The college reserves the right to inspect any student's room at any
time. Periodic inspection of residence halls will be made by members of
the administration.
The college is not responsible for loss of personal possessions by the
students. It is recommended that each student consider the need to pro-
vide private insurance coverage.
Meals
All resident students are required to take their meals in the college
dining rooms. Commuting students may arrange for meals Monday
through Friday, on a semester basis, if space is available.
FINANCIAL AID
Lebanon Valley College offers financial aid to deserving students who
have been accepted for admission insofar as its aid funds permit. Students
apply for financial aid by submitting the Parents' Confidential Statement
(PCS) directly to the College Scholarship Service, Box 176, Princeton,
New Jersey 08540. Applications for financial aid (PCS) are available to
high school seniors in the guidance counselor's office and to college upper-
classmen in the financial aid office. It is not necessary to await notification
of acceptance to Lebanon Valley College before applying for financial
aid; in fact, application for financial aid should be made as early as
possible and no later than February 1.
All financial aid is awarded for one year on the basis of financial
need (except Presidential Scholarships). The PCS form assists the finan-
cial aid officer in determining the applicant's need for financial aid. Partic-
ipants in CSS subscribe to the principle that the amount of financial
aid granted a student should be based upon financial need. Students re-
ceiving aid from sources outside the college are required to report the
amount and source of financial aid to the financial aid office. The college
reserves the right to review and to adjust the financial aid offering and
award accordingly.
The college may require that a notarized or certified copy of the
parents' most recent income tax return (Form 1040) be sent directly to
the Financial Aid Office, Lebanon Valley College. If a notarized copy is
unavailable a "Request for Copy of Tax Return" Form 4506 should be
secured from the nearest office of the Internal Revenue Service.
All financial aid is reviewed annually. Eligibility for renewal of
financial aid is based upon need as established on the renewal PCS, satis-
factory conduct, and maintenance of the required scholastic average.
Presidential Scholarships
Presidential Scholarships are awarded to entering students by the
20
president of Lebanon Valley College in recognition of superior attain-
ment in high school study. A 2.5 cumulative grade-point average each
semester is required for automatic reinstatement of these awards.
Grants-in-Aid
Grants-in-aid are available to entering freshmen and upperclassmen
who have filed a Parent's Confidential Statement Form (PCS) and who
have demonstrated capability either in high school or in college work. A
2.0 cumulative grade-point average each semester is required for auto-
matic continuation of these grants. Annual renewal of the PCS is re-
quired for upperclassmen.
Basic Educational Opportunity Grants
Basic Educational Opportunity Grants are available to students who
qualify under Federal Criteria. Application Forms may be secured from
High School Guidance Counsellors as well as College Financial Aid Of-
fices.
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants
Educational grants range from $200 to $1,000 per academic year and
are based upon genuine need as stipulated by the federal government
and supported by the Parents' Confidential Statement.
Student Loans
National Direct Student Loans are available under the Higher Ed-
ucation Act of 1965 as amended. Qualifying students may borrow up to
$1,000 per year. A Parents' Confidential Statement must be submitted.
Student Employment Programs
A student in need of financial assistance may be assigned a campus
employment position. The College Work Study Program is underwritten
by the federal government to the extent of 80 percent of the earnings.
In addition, the college operates its own student employment pro-
gram affording opportunities for students to work in a variety of positions
as their schedules permit.
For further information, write to the Financial Aid Officer, Lebanon
Valley College, Annville, Pennsylvania 17003.

ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
& PROCEDURES
REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES
Lebanon Valley College confers five bachelor degrees. They are:
Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Chemistry,
Bachelor of Science in Medical Technology, and Bachelor of Science in
Nursing.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred upon students who com-
plete the requirements for graduation in the following areas, and who
are recommended by the faculty and approved by the Board of Trustees:
English, foreign languages, French, German, history, mathematics, music,
philosophy, physics, political science, psychology, religion, social science,
sociology, and Spanish.
The Degree of Bachelor of Science is conferred upon students who
complete the requirements in the following areas, and who are recom-
mended by the faculty and approved by the Board of Trustees: actuarial
science, biology, chemistry, cooperative engineering, cooperative forestry,
economics and business administration, elementary education, mathe-
matics, music education, and physics.
The professional degrees of Bachelor of Science in Chemistry, Bache-
lor of Science in Medical Technology and Bachelor of Science in Nursing
are conferred upon students who complete the requirements in the re-
spective professional areas and who are recommended by the faculty and
approved by the Board of Trustees.
Semester Hours
The requirements for degrees are stated in "semester hours of credit"
which are based upon the satisfactory completion of courses of instruc-
tion. Generally, one semester hour of credit is given for each class hour a
week throughout the semester. In courses requiring laboratory work,
not less than two hours of laboratory work a week throughout a semester
are required for a semester hour of credit. A semester is a term of ap-
proximately 15 weeks.
Candidates for degrees must obtain a minimum of 120 semester hours
credit in academic work in addition to the required courses in freshman
and sophomore physical education. However, a student who has a physical
disability may be excused (on recommendation from the college physician)
from the requirement in physical education.
Major
As a part of the total requirement of 120 hours, every candidate for
a degree must present at least 24 semester hours of course work in one
22
department (this is his major). The initial selection of a major may be
indicated or recorded any time before the end of the student's sophomore
year. Such a choice of department or curriculum in which he will pur-
sue work of special concentration must be made by the time of registra-
tion for the junior year.
A student shall be accepted as a major in a department so long as
he has not demonstrated (by achieving less than the minimum grade-
point average in the desired major) that he is incapable of doing satis-
factory work in the department. A student accepted as a major has the
right to remain in that department, except by special action of the dean
of the college, as long as he is in college.
Substitution or waiving of specific courses required for the major
may be approved by the departmental chairmen or advisers in a special
curriculum upon student request.
A student desiring to major in two subject areas should consult his
current adviser and the chairman of the department of his proposed sec-
ond major concerning requirements and procedure.
Examinations
Candidates for degrees are required to take end of course examina-
tions if scheduled.
Residence Requirement
Degrees will be conferred only upon those candidates earning in
residence a minimum of 30 semester hours out of the last 36 taken before
the date of the conferring of the degree, or before the transfer to a co-
operating program. Residence credit is given for course work completed
in regular day classes and in evening and summer session courses taken
on campus.
Grade-Point Averages
Candidates for degrees must also obtain a cumulative grade-point
average of 1.75, computed in accordance with the grading system indi-
cated below.
In addition, candidates must earn a grade-point average of 2.0 in
the major field of study.
Only grades received in courses taken on campus or in courses staffed
by Lebanon Valley College at the University Center at Harrisburg are
used to determine grade-point averages.
System of Grading and Quality Points
The work of a student in each subject is graded A, B, C, D, or F,
with the plus and minus available to faculty members who wish to use
them. These grades have the following meanings:
23
A — distinguished performance
B — superior work
C — general satisfactory achievement
D — course requirements and standards satisfied at a minimum level
F — course requirements and standards not satisfied at a minimum
level
A student may not take any course which has as a prerequisite a
course that he has failed. If a student fails in a course twice, he may not
take it a third time.
In addition to the above grades the symbols "I," "W," "WP," and
"WF" are used on grade reports and in college records. "I" indicates
that the work is incomplete (that the student has postponed with the
prior consent of the instructor and for substantial reason, certain re-
quired work), but otherwise satisfactory. This work must be completed
within the first six weeks of the beginning of the semester following, or
the "I" will be converted to an F. Appeals for extension of time beyond
six weeks must be presented in writing to the assistant dean of the col-
lege not later than one week after the beginning of the next semester.
W indicates withdrawal from a course through the eighth week of
classes in the semester. In case of a withdrawal from a course thereafter
through the last day of classes in the semester, the symbol "WP" will be
entered if the student's work is satisfactory, and "WF" if the work is un-
satisfactory. The grade of "WF" is counted as an F in calculating
grade-point averages.
For courses in which no academic credit is involved, student work is
evaluated as either S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory).
For each semester hour credit in a course in which a student is graded
A, he receives 4 quality points; A- 3.7; B+, 3.3; B, 3; B- 2.7; etc. F carries
no credit and no quality points.
Pass/Fail Grading
After attaining sophomore standing (28 semester hours credit), a stu-
dent may elect to take up to two courses per semester and one one-
semester course per summer session on a P/F basis, but only six of these
courses can be counted toward graduation requirements.
Any courses not being counted toward the fulfillment of the general
requirements or the major requirements may be optional on a pass/
fail basis. Any prerequisite course taken on a P/F basis and successfully
completed will satisfy the prerequisite.
Each department may, with the approval of the dean of the college,
designate certain courses, including those required for the major, in
which the grading will be P/F for all students enrolled. Such courses
may not be taken for regular grading even if a student desires it. Any
course so designated shall not count toward the total number of courses
available P/F to the student.
24
Any course taken on a P/F basis will be graded P/H (pass with dis-
tinction), P (pass), or F (fail). P/H is denned as B+ and up, P is denned
as D- through B; and F is below D-.
Any course completed on a P/F basis shall be counted toward gradu-
ation requirements, but only an F grade shall be included in computing
the grade-point average. All passing grades shall be treated on the record
as is transfer credit.
The student will indicate at registration or through the eighth
week of classes in the semester the courses that he has elected to take on
a P/F basis. He may, with the approval of his adviser, change his option
for P/F grading to the regular grading basis or from regular grading to
P/F grading during the same period.
Instructors may be informed of the grading option selected by the
student only after semester grades in the course have been recorded. In-
structors will submit for each student an A through F grade which will be
converted to P/H, P, or F for students selecting this grading system.
Transfer Students
Students transferring from two-year institutions (except those in the
medical technology and nursing programs) are required to have at least
60 hours of work at a four-year institution for graduation. All students
must take a minimum of 30 hours at Lebanon Valley College to meet
the residence requirement. (See page 23.)
Students transferring from other institutions must secure a grade-
point average of 1.75 or better in work taken at Lebanon Valley College,
and must meet the 2.0 grade-point average in their major field.
Attendance at May Baccalaureate and Commencement Programs
All seniors are required to attend the May baccalaureate and com-
mencement programs at which their degrees are to be conferred.
Degrees will be conferred in absentia only for the most compelling
reasons and only upon a written request approved by the assistant dean of
the college. Such requests must be submitted at least two weeks prior to
the date of commencement.
Faculty approval is required for the conferring of the degree and the
issuance of the diploma in any case of willful failure to comply with these
regulations.

course if credit for the same elementary language course was given on transfer from
another institution.

THE COLLEGE HONORS PROGRAM
The Honors Program provides an opportunity for superior students
to develop and to challenge their intellectual abilities, to challenge their
originality and intellectual curiosity, and to nurture academic excellence
both in students and faculty.
The Program has two phases: lower division Freshman-Sophomore
Honors; upper division Honor Studies and Departmental Honors.
Prospective freshmen are selected, after interviews with members of
the Honors Subcommittee of the Academic Life Committee and Honors
instructors, on the basis of class rank, CEEB scores, Presidential Scholar-
ship Examinations, and other useful information. Others may be chosen
by a similar procedure by the Honors Subcommittee toward the end of
the first semester, on the basis of recommendations invited from all in-
structors.
To graduate with college honors, a student must earn twelve semes-
ter hours in lower division honors and nine semester hours in upper
division honors. In upper division work, three semester hours must be
gained in Honors Studies and three in Independent Study. A student's
grade-point average must be 3.0 overall and in Honors work.
FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE HONORS
Freshman-Sophomore Honors may be conducted in either lecture or
seminar format; all students are expected to contribute to seminar dis-
cussion. Participation in Freshman-Sophomore Honors is restricted to
Honor students; exceptions are made only with consent of the instructor
and the Honors Subcommittee of the Academic Life Committee. Enroll-
ment in Freshman-Sophomore Honors sections should be limited to 15.
Freshman-Sophomore Honors sections are offered in the following
courses which meet the appropriate general and distribution require-
ments: English 111/112, English 227/228, Religion 111/112, Economics
110/120, Foreign Language 315H/316H, History 125/126, and Psychol-
ogy 110.
HONORS STUDIES
Honors Study is a team effort in independent work with the guid-
ance of one or more instructors. Honors Study generally deals with an
interdepartmental subject, is restricted to Honors Students at the junior-
senior level, and consists of a team of no more than seven students. An
Honors student may participate in an Honors Study after completing
nine hours in Freshman-Sophomore honors. In appropriate instances,
the Curriculum Committee will be petitioned to approve courses to
meet the distribution requirements.
DEPARTMENTAL HONORS
Departmental Honors is taken in the major field in junior and senior
years. The program consists of a reading and/or research program pro-
ducing a thesis or an essay. The latter is done on a problem or subject
27
of the student's own choosing under the supervision of a faculty adviser, j
Opportunity also exists to do creative work. A maximum of nine hours
credit may be earned in departmental honors.
AUXILIARY SCHOOLS
Summer, Evening, Extension
Summer sessions, evening classes on campus, and extension classes in
the University Center at Harrisburg have enabled teachers, state em-
ployees, and others in active employment to attend college courses and
secure academic degrees. By a careful selection of courses, made in consul-
tation with the appropriate adviser, students can meet many of the re-
quirements for a baccalaureate degree. Some courses may be taken for
provisional and permanent teaching certification; others may be taken
with the aim of transferring credit to another institution. Many courses
lead to professional advancement or are of direct benefit to persons in
business or industry, while others assist in broadening the student's voca-
tional, social, and cultural background.
Separate brochures are published for the summer session and the eve-
ning classes. For copies or for other information pertaining to the summer
session or evening classes write to the Assistant Dean of the College,
Lebanon Valley College, Annville, Pennsylvania 17003.
Summer Session
Regular enrolled students may, by taking summer session courses,
meet the requirements for the bachelor's degree in three years.
Campus Evening Classes
Evening classes are offered on the campus, Monday through Thurs-
day, and carry residence credit.
The evening school includes an ENRICH Program in Business Ad-
ministration. The student receives a certificate of achievement upon
successful completion of the 60 semester-hour program.
University Center at Harrisburg
Extension classes are offered in the William Penn High School, Third
and Division Streets, and at the Center's campus, 2991 North Front Street,
Harrisburg, 17110, on Monday through Thursday evenings and on Satur-
day mornings during the regular academic semesters. Classes meet during
the summer sessions on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings. Leba-
non Valley College's extension program in Harrisburg is carried on in
conjunction with Elizabethtown College, Temple University, The Penn-
sylvania State University, and the University of Pennsylvania.
All students admitted and enrolled for a degree at the college are re-
quired to secure the permission of their advisers and the assistant dean of
the college prior to enrolling for any courses at the University Center at
Harrisburg.
For details pertaining to the University Center at Harrisburg write
28
or call the director at 2991 North Front Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
17110, at 238-9694 during the day or 238-9696 during the evening.
GERMANTOWN METROPOLITAN SEMESTER
Lebanon Valley College sponsors an urban semester program
through the Metropolitan Collegiate Center of Germantown, Philadel-
phia, Pennsylvania. This is a one-semester program of a pre-professional
internship and academic seminars relating to the city. The program is
designed especially for students who are interested in cities and the op-
portunity of living and working in a pluralistic urban world; or who
want the practical and personal advantages of a concrete work ex-
perience especially for purposes of vocational and educational decisions.
Internship placements are available in a diverse range of social
service, mental health, law enforcement, medical research, and health-
care-delivery agencies. 15 academic credits are offered in the program.
Metropolitan Semester students live in housing approved by the Center
staff. Total costs are comparable to those of a semester on campus.
JUNIOR YEAR ABROAD
A Lebanon Valley student may spend his junior year abroad in study
under a program administered by an accredited American college or uni-
versity, or in a program approved by Lebanon Valley College. Such a
student must have maintained a B average at Lebanon Valley College,
must be proficient in the language spoken in the country in which he will
study, and must be a person who in the judgment of the assistant dean of
the college and the faculty will be a worthy representative of his own
country. His proposed course of study must be approved by the chairman
of his department and the assistant dean of the college.
MARINE BIOLOGY PROGRAM
Lebanon Valley College offers a limited program in marine biology in
cooperation with the University of Delaware College of Marine Studies
and the University of Georgia Marine Institute.
Under this program the student takes the necessary fundamental sci-
ence courses on campus and spends six to ten weeks in the summer be-
tween his junior and senior years at the University of Delaware College of
Marine Studies, Lewes, Delaware. Nine credits of marine science work
can thus be earned for transfer to Lebanon Valley College.
In addition, short field trips are made to Lewes as part of the ecol-
ogy course (Biology 403). An extended field trip is made in the senior
year to Sapelo Island, site of the University of Georgia Marine Institute.
Opportunities are given here for study of various aspects of the ecology
of an undisturbed marsh ecosystem and of basic oceanographic research
methodology.
The college believes that the best preparation for a career in marine
biology is a thorough grounding in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathe-
matics. With the addition of the specific work in ecology and marine
29
science, on campus and at the cooperating institutions, a student is well
prepared both for an immediate career as well as for graduate work in
the field.
MERRILL-PALMER INSTITUTE SEMESTER
Usually during their junior year, selected students may spend a
semester in Detroit, Michigan, at the renowned Merrill-Palmer Institute,
enrolled for courses and involved in a practicum experience, either work-
ing with children or with community organization. The theme of the
study program is "Children and Families in Urban Communities." In
the student residences small groups from many different colleges and
universities and from all sections of the United States participate co-
operatively in the management and social affairs of their houses, with
12-18 persons in each residence.
WASHINGTON SEMESTER PROGRAM
Students at Lebanon Valley College are eligible to participate in the
Washington Semester Program which is offered in cooperation with Amer-
ican University in Washington, D.C. This includes the study of the
American governmental and political system as a whole (the Washington
Semester), the urban polity and intergovernmental decision-making in
urban affairs (the Washington Urban Semester), American foreign policy
formulation and implementation (the Foreign Policy Semester), and inter-
national development (the International Development Semester). Stu-
dents in the first two programs take a seminar, which includes meetings
with public officials, political figures, private interest group representa-
tives, and other knowledgeable persons; an individual research project
determined in consultation with instructors at Lebanon Valley and Amer-
ican University; and either an elective course at the university or an
internship program arranged with a political or administrative office in
Washington. The Foreign Policy Semester and the International Develop-
ment semester are modules, expected to occupy the student's full academic
time.
The program is open to juniors and seniors in any major field who
have at least a 2.5 average, have had the basic courses in American na-
tional government, and are recommended by the chairman of the depart-
ment of history and political science. Two students from the college will
be selected each November by American University to participate in the
following spring semester. Students in the program have the same status
as full-time undergraduates at American University and will receive full
credit for one semester's work toward their degree at Lebanon Valley
College.
ACADEMIC PROCEDURES
Registration and Pre-Registration
Students are required to register for classes on official registration
days and on designated pre-registration days of each semester. Informa-
30
tion concerning the dates for official registration and pre-registration is
listed in the college calendar, page 3.
Late Registration and Pre-Registration
Students registering later than the days and hours specified will be
charged a late registration fee of ten dollars. Students desiring to register
later than one week after the opening of the semester will be admitted
only by special permission of the assistant dean of the college. Students
who do not pre-register during the designated time will be charged a late
pre-registration fee of ten dollars.
Change of Registration
Change of registration, including pass /fail elections, when necessary,
must be made over the signature of the adviser. In most instances regis-
tration for a course will not be permitted after the course has been in
session for one full week. With the permission of his adviser, a student
may withdraw from a course at any time through the last day of classes of
the semester. (See page 23 for grading policy.) A fee of $5.00 is charged
for every change of course made at the student's request after registra-
tion.
Orientation for New Students
A spring orientation day is held annually for incoming students. At
this time the activities include a general orientation to the college, coun-
seling with academic advisers, and pre-registration for courses. Special
sessions for parents are a vital part of the program.
An orientation period of several days at the beginning of the college
year is provided to help new students, both freshmen and transfers, to
become familiar with their academic surroundings. This time is devoted
to lectures, social activities, and informal meetings with upperclassmen
and members of the faculty.
During the first semester all freshmen and transfer students are re-
quired to participate in an orientation course which includes a series of
lectures and discussions on college procedures, campus activities, and
methods of study.
Discontinuance of Course
The college reserves the right to withdraw or discontinue any course
for which an insufficient number of students have registered.
Repetition of Courses
No student shall be permitted to repeat for credit, grade, or quality
points a course for which he has already received a passing grade.
If a course on campus or staffed by Lebanon Valley College at the
University Center at Harrisburg is failed but is later repeated and passed
at either location, the failure is ignored in calculation of cumulative
grade-point averages in the semester in which the course is passed or
thereafter. The grade of F remains on the permanent record card, with
an asterisk used to indicate that the course was repeated and passed.
31
Concurrent Courses
A student enrolled for a degree at Lebanon Valley College may not
carry courses concurrently at any other institution without the prior con-
sent of his adviser and the assistant dean of the college. Neither may a
regular student carry work concurrently in evening or extension courses
without the prior permission of his adviser and the assistant dean of the
college.
A student registered at Lebanon Valley College may not obtain credit
for courses taken in other colleges, including the University Center at
Harrisburg, during the summer unless such courses have prior approval
of his adviser and the assistant dean of the college.
Auditing Courses
Students are permitted to register to audit courses with the consent
of the instructor and the academic adviser. Audited courses are counted
in considering the course load relative to limit of hours (overload). The
regular tuition fee is charged to part-time students. Neither grade nor
credit is given either at the time the course is audited or thereafter. A
change of registration from credit to audit or or from audit to credit
must be accomplished by the end of the fifth week of classes of the semes-
ter.
Faculty Advisers
Each student is assigned a faculty adviser who serves in the capacity of
friendly counselor.
The initial selection of a major may be indicated or recorded any
time before the end of the student's sophomore year. Such a choice of de-
partment or curriculum in which to pursue work of special concentration
must be made by the time of registration for the junior year. This depart-
ment or curriculum shall be known as his major. A student shall be ac-
cepted as a major in a department so long as he has not demonstrated (by
achieving less than the minimum grade-point average in the desired ma-
jor) that he is incapable of doing satisfactory work in the department.
The chairman or another member of the department or the adviser of the
curriculum in which the student has elected to major becomes the adviser
for that student. The adviser's approval is necessary before a student may
register for or withdraw from any course, select or change his pass/fail
elections, or change registration from credit to audit or from audit to
credit.
Arrangement of Schedules
Each student arranges his course of study and his class schedule in
consultation with, and by approval of, his faculty adviser. Students already
in attendance do this during pre-registration periods. New students ac-
complish this on the spring orientation day.
Limit of Hours
To be classified as full-time, a student must take at least twelve se-
32
mester hours of work. Sixteen semester hours of work is the maximum
permitted without approval of the adviser and special permission of the
assistant dean of the college; physical education carries no credit. Audit-
ed courses are counted in determining the course load.
The privilege of carrying extra hours will be granted only for com-
pelling reasons and only when a satisfactory grade level has been main-
tained for the previous semester.
Academic Classification
Students are classified academically at the beginning of each year.
Membership in the sophomore, junior, or senior classes is granted to those
students who have earned a minimum of 28, 56, or 84 semester hours
credit respectively.
All entrance deficiencies must be removed before the academic status
of sophomore is granted.
Counseling and Placement
Lebanon Valley College recognizes as part of its responsibility to its
students the need for providing sound educational, vocational, and per-
sonal counseling. Measures of interest, ability, aptitude, and personality,
in addition to other counseling techniques, are utilized in an effort to
help each student come to a fuller realization of his capabilities and per-
sonality. An important part of the counseling program consists of a series
of lectures and discussions conducted as a non-credit orientation course
for new students.
Placement services are provided by the college for aiding students in
procuring part-time employment while in college and in obtaining posi-
tions upon graduation. A current file is maintained which contains in-
formation about positions in various companies and institutions, civil
service opportunities and examinations, entrance to professional schools,
assistantships, and fellowships. Representatives of business, industry, and
educational institutions visit the campus annually to interview seniors for
prospective employment. A file of credentials and activities of those stu-
dents availing themselves of the services is available to prospective em-
ployers. Graduates may keep their individual files active by reporting
additional information to the director of industrial placement.
A Teacher Placement Bureau which assists students in finding posi-
tions is maintained.
Records of students' credentials in all areas of student activities are
on file.
ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS
The rules of the college are designed to provide for proper regulation
of the academic community. The rules and regulations as stated in this
bulletin are announcements and in no way serve as a contract between
the student and the college. Attendance at the college is a privilege and
not a right. The student by his act of registration concedes to the college
the right to require his withdrawal any time deemed necessary to safe-
33
guard the ideals of scholarship and character, and to secure compliance
with regulations. It is expected that the conduct of all campus citizens
will conform to accepted standards. All students are required to respond
to communications sent by any duly constituted authority of the college.
Class Attendance
Each student is held responsible for knowing and meeting all require-
ments for each course, including regular class attendance. Because of
differences in various disciplines, specific regulations governing class at-
tendance are set by each department, approved by the dean of the col-
lege, and administered by the instructor. At the opening of each course
the instructor will clearly inform the students of the regulations on class
attendance. Violations of class attendance regulations will make the stu-
dent liable to being dropped from the course with a failing grade, upon
the recommendation of the instructor and with the approval of the assis-
tant dean of the college.
In case of absence from class because of illness and for most other
reasons, the student speaks directly with the instructor concerning the
absence, whether anticipated or not, even if an examination has been
scheduled. The student informs the assistant dean of the college only if
the absence could not be anticipated and the period of absence will be a
week or more. The assistant dean of the college informs faculty members
of students who will be absent from classes because of participation in
official functions of the college. Students on academic probation are per-
mitted only excused absences.
Excused absences do not absolve the student from the necessity of ful-
filling all course requirements.
Academic Dishonesty
Instances of open and conclusive academic dishonesty are dealt with
in accordance with the following regulations:
For the first offense the faculty member shall have the authority to
fail the student in the course.
For the second offense the student shall be failed in the course and
additional action taken, up to and including expulsion from college, if
deemed warranted by the dean of the college.
For the third offense, if the second act of dishonesty did not warrant
expulsion in the opinion of the dean of the college, the student shall be
punished by failure in the course and expulsion from the college.
Chapel-Convocation Program
A chapel-convocation program is held regularly each week. The
weekly programs are augmented by additional events at other times dur-
ing the semester. From the total of twenty-four programs each full-time
student will select not less than twelve to fulfill his attendance require-
ment for the semester. For each unexcused absence, resulting in less than
twelve attendances, one hour will be added to the hours required for
graduation.
34
Hazing
Hazing is strictly prohibited. Any infringement by members of other
classes upon the personal rights of freshmen as individuals is interpreted
as hazing.
Cars and Student Parking
All cars owned or operated by Lebanon Valley College students must
be registered with the office of the dean of students. Violations of estab-
lished parking regulations will result in fines and may result in suspen-
sion or revocation of parking privileges.
Transcripts
Each student, former student, or graduate is entitled to one transcript
of his college record without charge. For each copy after the first, a fee of
two dollars is charged.
Regulations Regarding Academic Probation,
Suspension, Dismissal, Withdrawal
A. Probation
A student can be placed on academic probation by the dean of the
college or suspended or dismissed if his academic standing fails to come
up to the grade-point average shown in the following table:
Suspension or
Probation dismissal
1st semester 1.25
2nd semester 1.50 1.25 cumulative
3rd semester 1.65
4th semester 1.75 1.50 cumulative
5th semester 1 .75
6th semester 1.75 1.65 cumulative
7th & 8th semesters 1.75 in all courses
A student placed on academic probation is notified of such status by
the dean of the college and informed of the college regulations governing-
probationers. Students on probation are required to regulate their work
and their times so as to make a most determined effort to bring their work
up to the required standard.
When a student is placed on academic probation, faculty and par-
ents are notified by the dean of the college. The dean of the college may
terminate the period of probation of any student. Usually this occurs at
the end of a semester or summer session.
Infraction of the following regulations governing probationers ren-
der a student liable to dismissal:
1. No unexcused class absences will be permitted.
2. Any office or activity in any college organization that involves
such expenditure of time as to jeopardize the successful pursuit
of academic work must be relinquished.
35
B. Suspension
1. A student who obviously fails to achieve at a level commensurate
with his measured ability may be suspended for at least one semester.
2. A student suspended for academic reasons is not eligible for re-
instatement for at least one semester, preferably two.
3. A student seeking reinstatement to Lebanon Valley College must
apply in writing to the dean of the college.
4. Students suspended for academic reasons are not permitted to reg-
ister for work in the auxiliary schools except for the most compelling
reasons and then only with the approval of the assistant dean of the
college.
5. A student may be suspended without a prior period on probation.
C. Dismissal
A student dismissed for academic reasons is not eligible for readmis-
sion.
D. Withdrawal from College and Readmission
Official withdrawal from the college is accomplished only by the com-
pletion of withdrawal forms obtained in the office of the assistant dean of
the college and registrar. This is the sole responsibility of the student.
Application for readmission will be considered only if the formal
withdrawal procedure has been followed at the time of withdrawal.
36
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
THE RELIGIOUS LIFE
Lebanon Valley College was founded as a Christian college and con-
tinues to be dedicated to its faith. All students are invited and urged to
participate in some phase of religious activity.
The Chapel-Convocation Program
A series of twenty-four programs is held each semester from which
each student selects a minimum of twelve to fulfill attendance require-
ments. These programs include chapel services and convocation programs
that are held on Tuesday mornings, as well as cultural events selected
by the Chapel-Convocation Committee. This committee, with equal rep-
resentation from administration, faculty, and students, will announce the
total chapel-convocation program at the beginning of each semester.
Rationale of Chapel-Convocation Policy
The aims and objectives of Lebanon Valley College as they relate to
the chapel-convocation policy and program have been duly published and
constantly remind us that this institution was chartered to promote the
highest human possibilities. The goals of our chapel-convocation policy
and program derive from (1) our conception of the distinctive nature of
the liberal arts and (2) the character of the academic community we
would consciously shape.
Every aspect of educational activity reflects qualitative concerns or a
scale of values. The liberal arts inevitably raise fundamental questions
which require honest regard for ultimate values and personal commit-
ments. To insure responsible learning and human concern it is necessary
to recognize the value-laden nature of all knowledge. Indeed, the liberal
arts are not so much courses of study as they are human attributes or per-
sonal qualities which enhance the possibility for rational discrimination,
uncoerced decision, and responsible commitment. Chapel services and
convocation programs are considered therefore not only an opportunity to
focus honest criticism upon our qualitative concerns and scale of values,
but they are offered as an integrating experience for the development of
the whole person. Thus, we believe an authentic liberal arts experience
will engender a sense of mystery, reverence, adoration, and celebration of
the Highest. Such an experience can be most profitably exercised and crea-
tively structured in communal worship and convocation programs.
Second, we believe a liberal arts college is a community of learning
responsibly committed to humanistic values. But human values are not
meaningfully experienced in abstraction or in isolation. Man is truly hu-
man only in community and therefore man can be correctly understood
only when seen in relation to God and fellow man. As an institution we
consciously attempt to shape this community with reference to the values
37
of Jesus Christ which we confess to be our highest norm of truth and
goodness; in Him we see authentic humanity as God's intention for all
men. This orientation is not in any way an exclusion or bemeaning of
non-Christians; rather, such a confession positively requires a good will
and sincere openness to all persons. When a college seeks community at
its highest and deepest levels through corporate learning and worship it
does so for the same reason it provides a library, gymnasium, theatre, or
laboratory, namely, opportunity for the highest human development. Of
course it is fatuous to assume that every opportunity offered in college
will prove to be an occasion for an enriching experience for every stu-
dent; but that fact does not excuse the college from the obligation of pro-
viding opportunities for experiences considered most essential to the
realization of man's highest potential.
In summary, a liberal arts institution may engage in a sort of quasi-
education and will fail to serve the whole person if it defaults in its con-
frontation with qualitative concerns, deflects from commitment to en-
nobling values, or denies the need for corporate celebration of life's high-
est good. Granted our conception of the nature of the liberal arts and the
particular kind of community we seek to be, provision for corporate
worship and convocation programs is integral to our total reason for being
a liberal arts community committed to a definite value-orientation, i.e.
Christian.
Sunday Services
The United Methodist Church and the other churches of the com-
munity extend a warm welcome to all college students who wish to attend
Sunday worship.
There are seven churches of different denominations in Annville it-
self. Other parishes of major religious groups not found in Annville are
located within a five-mile radius of the college.
PROJECT
PROJECT is the all-campus organization which coordinates the ac-
tivities of the various denominational religious groups on campus. It also
provides programs and activities to fulfill the spiritual needs of the stu-
dents and promotes the spirit of brotherhood in the college community.
Throughout the year the organization sponsors a Big Sister-Little Sister,
Big Brother-Little Brother program, and all-campus retreats for fun,
fellowship, and relaxation. PROJECT also provides special seasonal ser-
vices, opportunities for weekend work camps, presentations by guest
speakers, films, dramas, and other types of programs. All students are
welcome to assist in the planning and to participate in these activities.
Denominational Organizations
It is possible for the different denominations and faiths to organize
their students into clubs or other type organizations. Each of these groups
in turn elects one of its members to the Executive Board of PROJECT.
38
Religious Emphasis Day
This is one of the oustanding religious events of the school year.
Notable speakers are invited to share their experiences with the student
body through the chapel-convocation programs and personal interviews.
Other features usually included in the activities of the day are a music
program by a student group, and a movie or drama.
The Balmer Showers Lectureship
This annual lectureship was established and endowed by the late
Bishop Emeritus J. Balmer Showers, '07, of the Evangelical United Breth-
ren Church. Under the stipulations of the endowment, the lectures are
delivered by distinguished scholars of recognized leadership in the areas
of Christian faith and theology, biblical archaeology and interpretation,
and Christian ethics of the Christian ministry.
Religion and Life Lectures
The purpose of the Religion and Life Lectures is to deepen the stu-
dent's understanding of some of the problems of life and the religious re-
sources that are available to meet such problems. Currently, the Religion
and Life Lectures and the Balmer Showers Lectures are coordinated into
a series of three offerings at various times during the year.
Delta Tau Chi
Delta Tau Chi is an organization composed primarily of students
who have decided to devote full-time service to church vocations. Mem-
bership is open, however, to all students who wish to participate in its
activities and subscribe to its purpose. The group holds regularly sched-
uled meetings and daily meditations, sends deputations to churches, con-
ducts programs at various hospitals and homes, and enters into other com-
munity projects.
CAMPUS ORGANIZATIONS

CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES
Lebanon Valley College offers cultural programs in the form of the
Great Artists Series, concerts by students, faculty members, and musical
organizations in the department of music, and lectures sponsored by the
various departments of the college. In addition, the neighboring commu-
nities of Harrisburg, Hershey, and Lebanon offer concerts, lectures, and
other cultural activities throughout the year.
STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Ultimate responsibility for activities on the college campus rests with
the faculty and the administration. However, the faculty and the admin-
istration have delegated powers and responsibilities to the student govern-
ing bodies so that, to a large extent, students govern themselves. The col-
lege encourages initiative and self-government as a part of the democratic
training offered.
The representative organizations described below were established to
function in areas of student government. They are privileged to conduct
the affairs of the student body of Lebanon Valley College under their sep-
arate responsibilities so as to guide and promote the affairs of the stu-
dents in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and general institu-
tional rules.
Student Council
The Student Council seeks to foster understanding and cooperation
among the students, faculty and administration of Lebanon Valley Col-
lege. It is the elected group that acts as the central clearing house for all
recommendations and grievances, outside the area of responsibility of the
Student Senate, which emanate from the student body. The Student Coun-
cil also coordinates student activities and provides for the financing of
those activities. It is composed of eighteen members.
Student Senate
The Student Senate, composed of twelve elected members, is the stu-
dent disciplinary body. In addition to rendering decisions concerning stu-
dent justice and assigning punishments for rule violations, it has the re-
sponsibility of establishing social rules and regulations in accordance
with the general rules of the college. One of the key concepts that under-
lies student government is that all students are encouraged to assume re-
sponsibility for the enforcement of all rules that are under the jurisdic-
tion of the Student Senate. These rules and other information about stu-
dent government are found in the L Book which is distributed to all
students at the start of the school year.
Student Government Executive Committee
The highest authority in matters of student government at Lebanon
Valley College is the Executive Committee. This group, composed of
four students, two administrators, two faculty members, and the presi-
dent of the college, who serves as chairman, has authority to make major
41
policy changes upon recommendation by the Student Senate or Student
Council. It acts on matters or appeals referred to it by students, faculty
members, administrators, the Student Senate, or the Student Council.
Institutional Rules
1. There shall be no dichotomy between rules for men and rules for
women and there shall be equality in all aspects except security mea-
sures for women to be determined by the women.
2. Senior students and students twenty-one years of age and older are
given preference in applying for permission to live off campus in the
event the college is unable to furnish housing, provided preference is
also given to students with such qualifications of age and class stand-
ing who are not on academic or social probation.
3. The possession and/or consumption of alcoholic beverages by any
one on any property owned by Lebanon Valley College is prohibited.
4. Any interference with the educational or administrative processes of
the institution is forbidden.
5. Persons of the opposite sex may visit in an individual's dormitory
room only within the limitations as stated in the L Book.
6. Gambling is forbidden on the campus.
7. Smoking is prohibited in all college buildings except in residents'
rooms and where receptacles are provided by the college.
8. Pets shall not be kept in the dormitories unless they are approved
by the office of the dean of students.
9. All firearms are prohibited on campus.
10. Pledging and initiation into any organization may not include any
physical abuse.
ATHLETICS AND RECREATION
Lebanon Valley College maintains a full program of intramural and
intercollegiate athletic activities. Intramural leagues and tournaments are
conducted in the various sports for men and women.
The college participates in nine intercollegiate sports for men (base-
ball, basketball, cross-country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, track, wres-
tling) and three for women (basketball, hockey and lacrosse). Tennis is
offered for men and women.
Lebanon Valley College is a member of the following national and
regional athletic associations: National Collegiate Athletic Association,
Middle Atlantic States Collegiate Athletic Conference, Eastern College
Athletic Conference, the Central Pennsylvania Field Hockey Association,
and the Penn-Mar Conference for women.
Aims and Objectives of Intercollegiate Athletics
Lebanon Valley College supports its intercollegiate athletics program
because it offers its students an opportunity to participate in activities
that afford an outlet for competitive spirit and vitality, while further pro-
viding each student with an opportunity to develop, understand and ap-
preciate the values of teamwork, pride, morale, dedication, physical fit-
ness and school spirit.

COURSES OF STUDY
GENERAL INFORMATION
Course Numbering System
The first digit of the three-digit course number indicates the aca-
demic year in which the course is normally taken. Thus, a course is nor-
mally taken in the senior year if the first digit is 4, in the junior year if it
is 3, in the sophomore year if it is 2, and in the freshman year if it is 1.
(A first digit of 1 may also indicate that the course may be taken by fresh-
men even though it is usually taken by sophomores, juniors or seniors.)
A first digit of 5 is employed for courses in private music instruction
and independent study courses. Course numbers for music organizations
have 6 as a first digit. The same number is used each time a student en-
rolls in a course whose first digit is 5 or 6.
A course is offered in the first semester if the third digit is an odd
number, in the second semester if the third digit is an even number. A
course with 0 as a third digit is a one-semester course offered in both
semesters.
A comma separating the numbers of two courses with a common
title indicates that the first course (offered in the first semester) is a pre-
requisite to the second course (offered in the second semester). A slash
(/) separating the numbers of two courses with a common title indicates
that the first course is not a prerequisite for the second course.
A course is offered every year if an academic year is not indicated.
Course Credit
Semester hours of credit, class hours per week, and laboratory hours
per week are indicated by three numbers at the end of the line containing
the course number and title. For example, "4:3:4" for Biology 201 means
four semester hours of credit, three classroom hours per week, and four
laboratory hours per week.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION
Major: Elementary Education 220, 270, 332, 341, 344, 361/362, 440,

DEPARTMENTAL HONORS
The departmental honors program in elementary education permits
the capable student to increase the depth of his understanding in an area
of special interest and the general scope of his knowledge of elementary
education. It is planned as an integral part of the student's major program
rather than work superimposed upon it.
A student majoring in elementary education may participate in the
departmental honors program when he completes the freshman-sopho-
more college honors program or when he demonstrates in his academic
work the caliber of scholarship required to undertake an extensive re-
search project. He must also have achieved a 3.3 grade-point average
in departmental courses and a 3.0 grade-point average in all college
courses. Application is made in writing to the chairman of the depart-
53
ment not later than the end of the first semester of the junior year. Ap-
proval of the application must be given by the dean of the college upon
recommendation by the department staff.
A maximum of nine credit hours may be earned in this program.
These hours will be distributed over the junior and senior years with a
minimum of one and a maximum of three hours to be taken in one semes-
ter. This must include participation in the Senior Seminar, Elementary
Education 444, which is required of all students majoring in elementary
education. The student will investigate an area of special interest begin-
ning with the study of the literature and culminating in the design and
execution of an approved experimental or theoretical research project.
He will submit to the departmental chairman periodic progress reports
and any other indication of performance that may be required by the
department. The project should be completed by March of the senior
year, at which time the student will report and defend the findings of the
project in a manner to be determined by the departmental staff.
Graduation with departmental honors in elementary education will
depend on the quality of performance in the research project, the main-
tenance of the grade-point averages required for admission to the pro-
gram, success in the comprehensive student-teaching program, and the
final approval of the departmental staff and the dean of the college.

FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Associate Professor Cooper, Acting Chairman; Professor Piel; Professor
Damus; Assistant Professor Cantrell, Albrecht, Markowicz, Martin,
McNerney, and Nowicki; Adjunct Instructors Garman and Say lor
The study of modern foreign languages has a two-fold aim. The first
is to develop fluency in the skills — speaking, oral comprehension, reading
and writing — which will enable the student to communicate effectively.
The second is to provide a knowledge and appreciation of the literature,
civilization and cultural heritage of the people whose language is studied.
Recognizing the importance of foreign language study to internation-
al understanding and world peace and the value of language literacy
within the framework of liberal education, the department prepares the
language major for a career in many crucial and challenging fields:
teaching, diplomatic and government service, foreign trade, business and
industry.
Since knowledge of a foreign language alone is often insufficient for
many of these careers, the language major should, where appropriate,
combine knowledge of foreign languages with work in other disciplines in
the Humanities and Social Sciences.
59
Major: A student may elect either a major in one language or a de-
partmental major, which requires two languages. The major in one lan-
guage requires 24 hours above the elementary level in that language; the
departmental major requires the same plus at least 12 hours above the
elementary level in another language. A major in one language with cer-
tification to teach requires 2 additional hours. In all cases the general col-
lege requirement of completing a foreign language at the intermediate
level must be fulfilled in still another language.
In French, German, and Spanish, at least one advanced course is of-
fered each semester. It is hoped to increase the number and variety of the
advanced courses offered. All courses are taught in the language studied
(audio-lingual method) with the exception of Greek, Latin, and Scien-
tific German.
The department strongly recommends that all language majors study
abroad in the junior year in the country of their major language.
DEPARTMENTAL HONORS
Students who are majoring in foreign languages may become can-
didates for departmental honors if they have a grade-point average of 3.0
in departmental courses, and if they receive permission from the depart-
mental staff and the dean of the college, ordinarily no later than the end
of the first semester of their junior year.
Honors work will involve the selection of a topic for investigation
under the guidance of the department adviser, independent reading and
study, frequent conferences with the adviser, preparation of a paper to be
submitted by March 15 of the senior year, satisfactory defense of the paper
before a committee composed of the departmental staff, the dean of the
college, and any other faculty members who may be invited to participate,
and, finally, an oral examination in the language of major concentration.
If these requirements are satisfied, the student will be graduated with
honors in his major language.

PHILOSOPHY
Assistant Professor Thompson, Chairman; Adjunct Professor Ehrhart;
Instructor Heffner
The department of philosophy serves a major purpose in the cur-
riculum by attempting to make the student aware of the need for a crit-
ical evaluation and analysis of the ideas, beliefs, and faiths — scientific and
humanistic — within the Western intellectual tradition.
Part of the rationale for the study of philosophy at the college is
found in the value of its attempt to examine the history of ideas as it
comes to us from the ancient Greeks. But more than this, philosophy seeks
to interpret and analyze these ideas as they relate to the student's own exis-
tence and that of mankind as a whole. The study of philosophy at Leba-
non Valley College takes both inspiration and justification from the
maxim of Socrates that "the unexamined life is not worth living."
Major: A total of twenty-four hours, including Philosophy 120, is re-
quired of the philosophy major.
INDEPENDENT STUDY AND DEPARTMENTAL HONORS

dertake to do individual study for honors by enrollment in Philosophy
500, Independent Study. This involves the writing and oral defense of
a detailed research project or critical study on an approved topic. This
program is open ordinarily only to departmental majors who have done

COOPERATIVE ENGINEERING PROGRAM
Adviser: Dr. Rhodes
Lebanon Valley College offers a cooperative program in engineering whereby
a student may earn a Bachelor of Science degree from Lebanon Valley College
and a Bachelor of Science degree in one of the fields of engineering from the
University of Pennsylvania or other cooperating institution.
97
Students who pursue this cooperative engineering program take three years
of work at Lebanon Valley College in the liberal arts and also in the mathemat-
ics and physics courses prerequisite for engineering. Then, if recommended by
Lebanon Valley College, they may attend the University of Pennsylvania or other
cooperating institution for two additional years of work in engineering. After
the satisfactory completion of this five-year program the student is granted the
Bachelor of Science degree by Lebanon Valley College while the University
grants the appropriate engineering degree. At the University of Pennsylvania the
student may select from among eight different curricula — bioengineering, chem-
ical engineering, civil and urban engineering, computer science and engineering,
electrical engineering and science, mechanical engineering and applied mechan-
ics, or metallurgy and materials science, and systems science and engineering. A
typical curriculum for the first three years of the cooperative engineering pro-
gram is given below, but each student's curriculum is planned to meet his par-
ticular needs.

TEACHING
Advisers: Dr. Ebersole, Dr. Albrecht, Mrs. Herr, Dr. Jacques, Mrs.
Rogers, Dr. Knight
The requirements listed below are applicable to students desiring
to be certified to teach in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
BASIC REGULATIONS-PENNSYLVANIA
INSTRUCTIONAL I CERTIFICATE
A. General Education
Certificates are based on the completion of a minimum of sixty (60)
semester hours of acceptable courses in general education with not less
than twelve (12) semester hours in the humanities and not less than
nine (9) semester hours in each of the following areas: the social sci-
ences and natural sciences.
These requirements apply to both elementary and secondary fields.
B. Elementary Education— Subject Matter Requirements
The Pennsylvania Instructional I certificate may be issued to those
who have completed the approved program.
The prospective elementary education teacher is also required to
have an academic major or an area of concentration of at least 18 to 24
semester hours.
The area of concentration may be defined as follows:
Study in a single subject such as history; study in a broad field such as
101
sociology, psychology, and anthropology elected from social science; study
in an interdisciplinary field such as courses elected from the humanities,
social science, or the natural sciences.
C. Professional Education for Secondary Teacher Certification
Pennsylvania Instructional I certificates are based on the completion
of the approved program in the subject field to be taught in the secondary
school and a minimum of eighteen (18) semester hours of professional
education distributed in the following areas: social foundations of ed-
ucation, human growth and development, materials and methods of in-
struction and curriculum, and nine (9) semester hours in actual prac-
ticum and student teaching experience under approved supervision and
appropriate seminars including necessary observation, participation and
conferences on teaching problems. The areas of methods and materials
of instruction and curriculum, and student teaching shall relate to the
subject matter specialization field or fields.
D. Secondary Student Teaching Program
A student concentrating in a major area of interest may, upon the
direction of his adviser and approval of the dean of the college, enroll in
one of two student teaching programs.
1. Semester of Professional Training
A student desiring to receive, upon graduation, the Pennsylvania In-
structional I certificate devotes a semester of the senior year to pro-
fessional preparation. The sixteen weeks are organized as follows:
Ed. 420. Human Growth and Development. 3:7]/2:0. See page 56 for
course description.
Ed. 430. Practicum and Methods. 3:71/4:0. See page 56 for course
description.
Some time is devoted to the presentation of data on basic reading
instruction to fulfill certification requirements for the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.
Ed. 440. Student Teaching.
Nine semester hours credit.
The student enters on a full-time student teaching experience of
one semester. He is under the direction of a trained teacher in an
accredited high school and is counseled and directed by the college
director of secondary student teaching. The student teacher also is
observed by his major adviser.
Prerequisites for Student Teaching: A student must have:
a. Maintained a 2.0 grade-point average in his major field,
b. Completed the basic courses of Education 110, 420, and 430, and
c. Secured written approval of his major adviser, the director of sec-
102
ondary student teaching, and the dean of the college in order to be
accepted for student teaching in the professional semester of his senior
year.
Post-Graduate Student Teaching
The post-graduate student teaching program is under the direc-
tion of Lebanon Valley College or, by arrangement, may be pursued
with any other accredited institution which has provision for super-
vising student teaching in the public schools.
Because of the necessity of meeting Pennsylvania state certifica-
tion requirements of proper supervision, only a limited number of
students are accepted in the in-service student teaching program.
Likewise, assignments are made only to those schools within the range
of the institution responsible for supervising the enrollee.
