THE MISSION OF THE COLLEGE
The Mission of Lebanon Valley College arises directly from its origins as a
church related college. We emphasize that fact by maintaining affiliation
with the United Methodist Church and by affirming the Judeo-Christian
tradition as the perspective for our policies.
The best way to understand the mission of Lebanon Valley College is to
focus on what it is we hope for our students. We want our students:
to develop a genuine concern for cooperative living and community
service;
to attain a heightened sense of moral and spiritual values through a
deepened awareness of how people have thought of themselves in rela-
tion to nature, to society, and to God;
to appreciate the close and unmistakable relationship among rational
thought, creative imagination, and moral commitment; and
to deal candidly and intelligently with the past, the present, and the
future and their interrelationship.
This assertion of hope for our students possesses three distinctive
characteristics. (1) While this is not a list of priorities in rank order, neither
is it a mere coincidence that cooperation with and service to others comes
first. (2) Moral commitment is not affirmed as one of a laundry list of
qualities nor does it appear as an afterthought. Rather it is inherent or
explicit in all the desired outcomes. (3) The broad description of our pro-
gram which these objectives implies identifies qualities which we attempt to
achieve through both general education and major study, but the stress
throughout is on interrelationships, not on knowledge in isolation, skills in
isolation, individual achievement or development in isolation. We want our
students to be as knowledgeable, as aesthetically sensitive, as skillful as
possible, but we want more than that for them.
The motto of the College, taken from the Gospel of John is "You shall
know the truth and the truth shall make you free." But our aim is not mere-
ly to free our students /row ignorance, superstition, prejudice, narrowness of
vision. It is also to free them for a life of service to others. That purpose we
affirm in the concept of leadership which gives focus to the ideals of educa-
tion by reiterating the central value of the liberal arts tradition in a
democratic society: to prepare people to make a difference, to contribute
significantly to their various communities.

ment requirements. Two agents have been appointed to process deferred pay-
ment applications for Lebanon Valley College:
Academic Management Services IPP/HES Trust
Pawtucket, Rhode Island 02861 c/o Municipal Services Dept.
Phone: 1-800-556-6684 Dauphin Deposit Bank and Trust Co.
P.O. Box 2937
Harrisburg, PA 17105
The College has no financial interest in either of these plans and offers them
as a convenience to students and parents. Students who are receiving monthly
Social Security or Veteran's Education Benefits may defer the amount
covered by these benefits.
Continuing Education Center
Lebanon Valley College's Continuing Education Center offers credit pro-
grams on four levels: certificate, associate, baccalaureate, and diploma. Cer-
tificates are starter programs that approximate the beginning of a four-year
college experience, ideal spring-boards from which to go on for an associate
or bachelor's degree. Diploma programs are intended for persons who have
already been awarded a bachelor's degree in one discipline and desire to
study another discipline in some depth and breadth.
A second bachelor's degree may be awarded to adult students who already
have received a bachelor of arts or sciences from LVC or another accredited
college or university. In such cases, students only must complete the major
requirements for the second degree or a minimum of thirty credits,
whichever is greater.
Courses in the Continuing Education Center are offered on the Annville
campus in evenings, on weekends and in summer sessions.
The Continuing Education Center publishes course schedules twice yearly in
June and October. The summer session schedule is distributed annually in
March. To obtain copies of course schedules or get detailed information on
all academic programs for adults call 717-867-6213 or write Continuing
Education Center, Lebanon Valley College, Annville, PA 17003-0501.
A candidate for admission to any of Lebanon Valley College's Continuing
Education degree programs must submit a completed application form with
the required application fee. An official high school transcript is required.
Adult students planning to transfer to Lebanon Valley also must submit of-
ficial transcripts of any completed college or university courses. Official
transcripts relating to military or business courses also may prove to be
useful. Personal interviews are not required, but are strongly recommended.
To arrange an admissions interview call 717-867-6213, or 1-800-445-6181.
Decisions on all adult student applications usually are made within one
month after the last required transcript is received.

whose actions are inimical to the purposes of the institution. The following
academic regulations are announcements and do not constitute a contract be-
tween the student and the College. The College reserves the right to change
these regulations and procedures as it deems necessary for the accomplish-
ment of its purposes, but wherever possible, a student will proceed to
graduation under the regulations in effect at the time of his/her entrance at
the College.

11
Academic Procedures
Limit of Hours
To be classified as full time, a student must take at least twelve credit hours
in a semester. Seventeen credit hours is the maximum permitted without ap-
proval from the student's advisor and permission of the Registrar. Audited
courses are counted in determining the course load, but physical education
and music organizations are not. To be permitted to take more than 17
credits the student should have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or
higher, or be enrolled in the Honors Program, or be a senior. Students shall
pay the prevailing tuition rate for each credit hour beyond 17 (not counting
physical education and music organizations).
Transfer Credit
A student applying for advanced standing after having attended another ac-
credited institution shall send an official transcript to the Dean of Admis-
sions. If requested, the student must provide copies of the appropriate
catalogs for the years of attendance at the other institution or institutions.
Credits are accepted for transfer provided the grades 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 credit hours only, not for quality
points.
A candidate for admission holding an associate degree from a regionally ac-
credited college can be admitted with full acceptance of coursework at the
previously attended institution. Coursework in the major field, however, for
which the applicant has received a D shall not be counted toward fulfilling
the major requirement.
Because Lebanon Valley College is a liberal arts institution, consideration of
full acceptance of the associate degree will be granted with the understanding
that the candidate has followed a basic course of study compatible with the
curriculum and academic programs of the College and has been enrolled in a
transfer program.
Registration and Preregistration
Students are required to register for courses on designated days of each
semester. Students who register later than the designated times shall be
charged a fee. Students desiring to register later than one week after the
opening of the semester will be admitted only by special permission of the
Registrar.
12
Change of Registration
Change of registration, including pass/fail elections, changes of course hours
credit, changes from credit to audit and vice versa, must be approved by
signature of the advisor. In most instances, registration for a course shall not
be permitted after the course has been in session for one full week. With the
permission of the advisor, a student may withdraw from a course at any time
through the last day of semester classes (see grading policy). A fee is
charged for every change of course made at the student's request after
Add/Drop Day.
Auditing Courses
Students may register to audit courses with the approval of their academic
advisor. Audited courses are counted in considering the course load relative
to the limit of hours. No grade or credit is given for an audited course, but
the registrar will record the audit on the transcript if the student attends regu-
larly. A change of registration from credit to audit or from audit to credit
must be accomplished by the end of the eighth week of semester classes.
Pass/Fail
After attaining sophomore standing (28 credit hours) a student may elect to
take up to two courses per semester and one per summer session on pass/fail
basis; however, only six such courses can be counted toward graduation
requirements. No courses taken pass/fail may be used to meet either general
education, major requirements, or pre- or co-requisites for classes. A student
may select or cancel a pass/fail registration any time during the first eight
weeks of a semester.
Repetition of Courses
A student receiving a grade of D-l- or lower in a course may repeat that
course once for a higher grade. For purposes of graduation requirements
semester hours credit count only once. For purposes of cumulative point
average only the higher grade counts; but the lower grade remains on the
permanent record card. If a course failed at Lebanon Valley is repeated at
another institution the credit may be transferred, but the original grade
remains part of the cumulative point average.
13
Concurrent Courses
A student enrolled for a degree at Lebanon Valley College may not carry
courses concurrently at any other institution without prior consent of his or
her advisor and the Registrar.
External Summer Courses
A student registered at Lebanon Valley College may not obtain credit for
courses taken during the summer in another college, unless such courses
have prior approval of his or her advisor and the Registrar.
Attendance Policy
Each student is responsible for knowing and meeting all requirements for
each course, including regular class attendance. At the opening of each
semester the instructors shall clearly inform students of class attendance
regulations. Violations of those regulations shall make the student liable to
receive a grade of F in the course. Upon the recommendation of the instruc-
tor and the approval of the Registrar a grade of W will be assigned during
the eight weeks of the semester, and an F will be assigned after that date.
Excused absences do not absolve students from the necessity of fulfilling all
course requirements.
Advanced Placement
Advanced Placement with credit for appropriate courses shall be granted to
entering students who make scores of 4 or 5 on College Board Advanced
Placement examinations. For scores of 3, final determination is made by the
appropriate department. 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 Registrar and by
the chairperson of the department.
Second Bachelor's Degrees
A person who has earned a bachelor's degree from Lebanon Valley College
or another accredited college or university may earn a second bachelor's
degree by meeting the following requirements:
1 . A minimum of 30 additional undergraduate credits must be completed
successfully at Lebanon Valley.
2. All graduation requirements for the major of the second degree must be
met satisfactorily.
3. Course work completed successfully as part of the first degree program
may be used to satisfy the graduation requirements of the second major.
14
4. No course already taken in the first degree program may be repeated in
the second degree program.
5. Teacher Certification credits may not be counted toward a second degree.
6. Graduates from other accredited colleges or universities shall not be
required to meet any Lebanon Valley general education requirements.
7. No courses in the second degree program may be met satisfactorily
through such non-traditional means as Challenge Examinations, CLEP, or
Credit for Life Experience.
8. No internships may be used to satisfy the 30 credit rule, unless such
internship is required in the second degree major program.
9. No courses in the second degree program may be taken Pass/Fail.
Undergraduate Non-Traditional Credit
Lebanon Valley College recognizes the ability of superior students to master
specific areas of study on their own initiative and provides programs to
allow these students the opportunity to gain credit. Any matriculated student
may earn a maximum of 30 credits toward a bachelor's degree or a maximum
of 15 credits toward an associate's degree through non-traditional means (ex-
periential credit, advanced placement, CLEP, challenge examinations).
Challenge Exams Policy
Only the courses listed in the College curriculum may be challenged for
credit. Full-time students should request challenge examinations through their
academic advisors. Part-time students and those students enrolled through the
Continuing Education program should make application or challenge exams
through the Continuing Education Center. All requests must be approved by
the Registrar and the chairperson of the department in which the course is
listed.
Challenge exams are considered to be comprehensive examinations in the
subject area and are graded Pass/Fail. The grading criteria for passing a
challenge exam shall be determined by each department. There is a fee for
each challenge examination. This fee is for preparation and grading of the
examination and is charged without regard to the test results. Challenge
exams may not be taken by students who have received any grade in a
course equivalent to or more advanced than the course for which the student
is requesting credit by examination. Challenge exams may not be used for
the purpose of acquiring credit for a course previously failed. Practicums,
internships, seminars, research courses, independent study, and courses with
required laboratory components are not subject to credit by examination.
15
CLEP (College Level Examination Program) Policy
Credit shall be granted to those students who score well on CLEP examina-
tions that are approved by the College. To receive credit, a student must
score above the 50th percentile on the objective section and above a C, as
determined by the appropriate academic department, on the essay section.
A maximum of 6 credits shall be awarded for each examination; of these
credits, only 3 may be applied to the general education requirements in the
appropriate area. Credit shall be granted only to students who have
matriculated at Lebanon Valley College. Requests for CLEP credit must be
approved by the Registrar before the student has completed 30 credits.
Credit for Life Experience Policy
Lebanon Valley College provides for the awarding of undergraduate
academic credit for knowledge acquired through non-academic experience in
subjects in the College curriculum. The experience should have a direct rela-
tion to the material taught in a course in the College curriculum and should
extend over a sufficient period to provide substantive knowledge in the rele-
vant area. Matriculated students who believe they qualify for such credit may
petition the appropriate department through their academic advisors. Students
enrolled in the Continuing Education program must petition through the Con-
tinuing Education Center. This petition must (1) detail the relevant experi-
ence in question, (2) provide appropriate supporting evidence, (3) note the
equivalent College course by department and number, and (4) state the num-
ber of credit hours sought. The appropriate department will consult with the
academic advisor or the Continuing Education Center to determine the best
means (interview, examination, portfolio, etc.) for evaluating the experience.
Approval of experiential credit for full-time students must be made in writing
over the signatures of the academic advisor, the appropriate department
chairperson, and the Dean of the Faculty. Approval of experiential credit for
students enrolled through the Continuing Education program must be made
in writing over the signatures of the Director of Continuing Education, the
appropriate department chairperson, and the Dean of the Faculty.
Experiential credit cannot exceed six credit hours in one academic year and
cannot exceed a maximum of twelve credit hours in the degree program.
16
Grading Systems and Grade Point Averages
Student work is graded A (distinguished performance), B (superior work), C
(satisfactory achievement), D (requirements and standards met at a minimum
level), F (course requirements not met). For each credit hour in a course,
students receive the following quality points:
A
4.0
A-
3.7
B +
3.3
B
3.0
B-
2.7
C +
2.3
c
2.0
c-
1.7
D +
1.3
D
1.0
D-
.7
F

F carries no credit or quality points, but grades of F are used in calculating
the grade point averages. The cumulative grade point average is calculated
by dividing the quality points by the credit hours completed.
Candidates for a degree must obtain a cumulative grade point average of
2.0, and a major grade point average of 2.0. Only grades in courses taken at
Lebanon Valley College, and the LVC-Washington Semester programs are
used to determine grade point averages.
Students in the classes of 1990, 1991 and 1992 and all continuing education
degree candidates admitted before July 1, 1989 must meet graduation re-
quirements by earning a cumulative grade point average of 1.75 and a major
grade point average of 2.0. Students in the class of 1993 and all continuing
education candidates admitted after July 1, 1989 meet graduation
requirements of earning a grade point average of 2.0.
A student may not take a course that has a prerequisite course he/she has
failed.
In addition to the above grades, the symbols I, W, WP, and WF are used. I
indicates that the work is incomplete (certain required work postponed by the
student for substantial reason with the prior consent of the instructor), but
otherwise satisfactory. This work must be completed within the first eight
weeks of the next semester, or the I will be changed to an F. Appeals for an
extension of time must be presented to the registrar by the first week of the
next semester. W indicates withdrawal from a course through the eighth
17
week of semester classes. In case of withdrawal from a course thereafter
through the last day of semester classes, the symbol WP is used if the work
has been satisfactory and WF if unsatisfactory. The grade of WF is
calculated as an F in the grade point averages. For physical education a
grade of either S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory) is recorded.
Once a grade has been recorded it may not be changed without the approval
of the instructor and the Registrar. Students who feel the grade may be inac-
curate should contact the instructor at once, but in no case later than the end
of the semester following the course in question.
Academic and Graduation Honors
The Dean's List
Students achieving a 3.40 grade point average while carrying at least 12
credit hours for grade shall be named to the Dean's List at the end of each
semester.
Graduation Honors
After completing a minimum of 60 credit hours of residence work a student
may qualify for graduation honors. The honors to be conferred are Summa
Cum Laude for grade point averages of 3.75 - 4.0, Magna Cum Laude for
grade point averages of 3.60 - 3.74, and Cum Laude for grade point aver-
ages of 3.40 - 3.59.
Phi Alpha Epsilon
Students graduating with grade point averages of 3.50 are eligible for induc-
tion into Phi Alpha Epsilon, provided they have earned a minimum of 60
credit hours of residence work.
Academic Dishonesty
Students are expected to uphold the principles of academic honesty.
Academic dishonesty shall not be tolerated.
For the first academic dishonesty offense, no action shall be taken beyond
failure from the course, at the option of the faculty member. A letter of
warning shall be sent to the student by the Dean of the Faculty, explaining
the policy regarding further offenses, and the right of appeal.
For a second offense, failure in the course is mandatory, and the Dean shall
so inform the faculty member(s) involved. Additionally, the Dean of Faculty

disciplinary courses, an interdisciplinary course involving the study of leader-
ship theories and processes (LC 100 or LC 111) is required as part of the
General Education program for all students. Beyond these basics, Lebanon
Valley offers two advanced programs in Leadership Studies.
Leadership Studies Program for Presidential Leadership Award Recipients
provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of leadership, in both
theory and application. This program consists of a four-course sequence
spread over the four years of undergraduate study.
A voluntary program in Leadership Studies is available to all students in the
College who wish to continue their study of leadership, both to broaden their
understanding of leadership theories and processes and to increase their self-
awareness in their roles as leaders and followers.
The Leadership Studies Program seeks to achieve the following outcomes for
all participating students:
1 . An understanding of the theories and models of leadership.
2. Knowledge of how people in diverse social and cultural contexts have
assumed leadership roles and performed as leaders.
3 . A critical awareness of how ethics and values help determine whether
responsible leadership or mere manipulation (the irresponsible use of
power and authority) will occur.
4. Increased self-awareness and understanding of how a person's behavior
affects relationships in leader/ follower situations.
5. Awareness and appreciation of the responsibilities and difficulties
inherent in leadership.

ence. Students test the practical application of their liberal arts learning in a
variety of professional, service, and occupational settings.
For one semester hour of credit, the intern should invest at least 45 clock
hours of time in the internship. The internship essentially involves a contract
between the student, the faculty advisor, and the on-site internship super-
visor. In addition to the practical on-site experience, internships typically
require special readings, reports, journals and faculty conferences.
Students may enroll for three to twelve credit hours of internship in any one
semester. A maximum of fifteen credit hours in intemships may be used
towards the graduation requirements. All intemships have a course number

Department Of Chemistry
Chemistry is the "central science" that provides the fundamental understand-
ing needed for protecting our environment, maximizing the yield from
limited natural resources, improving our health, and creating new materials
for tomorrow's products. Indeed, chemistry is essential to understanding life
itself.
Career opportunities in chemistry are numerous and diverse. Many students
enter industrial or governmental laboratories where they find positions in en-
vironmental analysis, quality control, or research and development. Possibili-
ties outside of the laboratory include teaching, sales, marketing, technical
writing, business, and law. Many chemistry students continue their education
in graduate school in chemistry or biochemistry, or in professional schools in
the areas of medicine, dentistry, or veterinary medicine.
At Lebanon Valley College the Department of Chemistry is located on the
upper two floors of the Garber Science Center. Major scientific equipment
available to students includes a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, a
liquid scintillation counter, a fourier transform infrared spectrometer, a high
performance liquid chromatographic system, a diode-array UV-visible
spectrophotometer, and a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer, and an
atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Computers available to students in the
department include Apple, Macintosh, and IBM-compatible machines.
The Department encourages students to discover the excitement and chal-
lenge of laboratory research. Research programs are conducted during both
the academic year and the summer. Students are paid for summer research
either from College funds or from grants that professors receive to support
their projects.
36
Two degrees are available to those interested in chemistry, and one for those
interested in biochemistry. The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry is the more
demanding of the two degrees in chemistry, and is recognized by the
American Chemical Society. This degree has a required research component
and is recommended for students who wish to become practicing chemists or
enroll in graduate school. Other students opt for the standard Bachelor of
Science degree, majoring in chemistry.
For the major programs and course descriptions in chemistry, see page 71.
The major in biochemistry is offered jointly with the Biology department. For
the major program and course descriptions in biochemistry, see page 67.

sity of Iowa; postdoctoral research. University of Wisconsin. Inorganic
Chemistry. Professor Cornelius works at the border of inorganic chemistry
and biochemistry. He has interests both in the fundamental mechanisms of
phosphoryl transfer reactions and in the development of platinum compounds
that hold promise for anti-cancer activity. He and his students synthesize
new compounds containing phosphates and study the rates of reactions of
these compounds. Studying the nature of the new compounds provides in-
sight into the manner in which enzymes catalyze related reactions in nature.
He also has earned a national reputation for his work with computers in
chemical education.
Donald B. Dahlberg, Associate Professor of Chemistry. Ph.D., Cornell
University; postdoctoral work. University of Toronto. Physical chemistry.
Dr. Dahlberg does research on the mechanism of elimination reactions in
organic chemistry. An important question to be answered in mechanistic
organic chemistry is when and how a reaction changes from a concerted
mechanism to a multistep mechanism. Does one mechanism evolve into
another as the substrate is modified, or do two distinct pathways exist at all
times where each substrate chooses the path of lowest energy? He is also
interested in applying the most recent developments in computers and elec-
tronics to the construction of chemical instrumentation.
Owen A. Moe, Jr., Professor of Chemistry. Ph.D., Purdue University post-

ductory chemistry.
Department Of Education
The Department of Education prepares students for both elementary and
secondary teaching.
The Education Department is committed to preparing elementary education
majors who have a thorough grounding in the disciplines they will teach
within the context of a strong liberal arts foundation. The program includes
intensive training in the content and methodologies of all elementary school
subjects.
The field-centered component in the program provides extensive and carefully
sequenced opportunities to work with teachers and children in a variety of
school settings during all four years of preparation for teaching. Majors spend
an average of two hours per week each semester in various public school
classrooms, observing teachers and children, aiding, tutoring, providing
small-group and whole-class instruction, and completing tasks on increasingly
challenging levels of involvement. Seniors spend the fall semester in full-
time student teaching with cooperating teachers who have been carefully
chosen for that role. Additional opportunities are provided for our students to
work in nursery schools, child care centers. Head Start programs, middle
schools, and in classes for exceptional children.
Students pursuing secondary teacher certification are prepared for teaching by
completing an intensive program in the departmental major(s) of their choice
in conjunction with a carefully sequenced professional education component
38
within the Education Department. Both the major program and the profes-
sional education component are completed within the context of a strong
foundation in the liberal arts.
Departmental majors may seek certification in biology, chemistry, English,
French, German, Spanish, mathematics, physics, and social studies.
Opportunities are provided candidates to observe and to teach in junior high
and high school settings prior to the full-time student teaching semester.
Cooperating teachers are selected through a process involving college faculty,
public school personnel, and the student teachers, thus assuring the most
beneficial placements possible.
Dual certification, at both the elementary and secondary levels, or in more
than one secondary area, is possible; however, such certification requires
meticulous attention to scheduling and often requires an additional semester
or two.
Post-baccalaureate certification is also available for those who wish to
become elementary school teachers or for those already certified who want to
add elementary education to an existing certificate.
The Education Department is intent on preparing well-rounded and qualified
graduates who will exercise genuinely professional and personal leadership
roles in the schools and communities where they will work.

Department of English
The major in English introduces students to the humanistic study of literature
or to the humanistic practice of writing. While English majors may choose
to concentrate either in literature or communications, the basis for both con-
centrations is the systematic and analytic study of literature. All majors also
learn clear, concise, and coherent expression as well as effective collection,
organization, and presentation of material. Such study prepares the student
for more advanced work in many fields. Graduates of the Department of
English are prepared to work in such fields as journalism, teaching, editing,
public relations, publishing, advertising, government, industry, the ministry,
and law.

Department Of Foreign Languages
The study of a foreign language has three aims: to develop fluency in the
basic communication skills, to provide an understanding of the cultural
heritage of the people who use the language, and to understand language as
the fundamental medium by which humankind thinks and interacts.
The Department of Foreign Languages prepares the language major for a
career in a variety of fields: teaching, diplomatic and government service.
41
foreign trade, business and social service. For many of these careers the
study of a foreign language is often combined with majors in other
disciplines.
The Department encourages students to avail themselves of the College's
opportunities for foreign travel and study, including the International Student
Exchange Program.
The Department of Foreign Languages offers majors in French, German, and
Spanish, and in Foreign Language, as well as minors in the three languages.

Department Of Mathematical Sciences
The Lebanon Valley College Department of Mathematical Sciences has long
offered a rigorous mathematics program within the context of a liberal arts
education. Today an increasing national need for mathematically prepared in-
dividuals has made our program even more attractive. Computer scientists,
secondary school mathematics and computer science teachers, college pro-
fessors in mathematical sciences, actuaries, operations research analysts, and
statisticians are in high and continuing demand. In addition, the mental
discipline and problem solving abilities developed in the study of
mathematics have long been recognized as excellent preparation for
numerous and varied areas of work or study.
The department offers majors in actuarial science, computer science, com-
puter information systems, and in mathematics, and minors in computer
science and in mathematics.
Five students from this department have earned Fulbright Scholarships in re-
cent years for graduate study abroad. Departmental graduates have earned
Ph.D. degrees in physics and computer science as well as mathematics.
Other graduates have completed law school. Many graduates are Fellows of
the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society. Regularly, more
than a quarter of the Lebanon Valley students named to the Who's Who in
American Colleges and Universities will be students from this department.
46
Actuarial Science
The actuarial profession defines an actuary as "a business professional who
uses mathematical skills to define, analyze and solve financial and social
problems." Actuaries are employed by insurance companies, consulting
firms, large corporations, and the federal and state governments. The Society
of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society establish and monitor the
professional qualifications of actuaries through a series of rigorous examina-
tions. In recent years, the demand for actuaries has far exceeded the supply
and indications are that the situation will continue.
The Lebanon Valley College Actuarial Science program is coordinated by
Professor Hearsey, an Associate of the Society of Actuaries. The program
consists of coursework selected to provide a solid foundation in mathematics
and to prepare students for courses 100-150 of the Society of Actuaries
syllabus and Parts 1-4 of the Casualty Actuarial Society syllabus. A student
may prepare for additional examinations through independent study. The
Actuarial Science program at Lebanon Valley College was established in the
mid 1960's and now boasts over 60 alumni in the actuarial profession.
Lebanon Valley College is one of the few small liberal arts colleges east of
the Mississippi River offering an actuarial science major. This program has a
record of 100% placement of graduates and most students are able to find
summer employment in the actuarial field during their sophomore and junior
summers.
Computer Science
Although it has been over 40 years since the development of the first elec-
tronic computer, Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper said at the 1987
Lebanon Valley College graduation exercises that "we are still in the Model
T or DC-3 age so far as computers are concerned." All of us will be work-
ing in a computer environment and must be able to use computers to assist
us rather than have computers control us. The United States is the world
leader in most phases of the computer industry, from the silicon chip to
operating systems and other software and applications.
The department's approach to computer science is to broaden the program by
supporting it with a strong theoretical perspective, and by embedding it in
the values of liberal education. The program is also designed to appropriately
reflect the rapidly changing technology and applications in the computer
field. Therefore, courses and equipment are constantly modified to optimize
the student's computer education and experience. New facilities with the
47
latest technology, planned for 1990, and an innovative major program will
provide the students with unique opportunities to tailor their studies to their
individual knowledge and interests.
The computer equipment ranges from representatives of all major microcom-
puters to a DEC VAX system, all connected by networks. All major
operating systems and languages are available and immediately accessible for
course work or independent study.
Mathematics
The recent identification by a graduate student of an error in Sir Isaac
Newton's work and the recent development of a revised linear programming
algorithm are but two examples that clearly demonstrate that mathematics is
alive and vibrant. National concerns have been expressed conceming
mathematics education in elementary schools and the decrease in graduate
studies in mathematics. Management schools continually are increasing the
quantitative component in their curriculum, and business and industry con-
tinually are looking for mathematically trained individuals. The demand for
teachers is well publicized. A bright and rewarding future awaits one choos-
ing mathematics as a field.
The program gives the student a broad selection of courses, theoretical and
applied, from which to choose after completing the core program. Students
may choose preparation for graduate programs, business and industrial
preparation, preparation for secondary school teaching, or such concentra-
tions as statistics or operations research. Students often combine mathematics
with another major or minor.

puter science and computer information systems are on page 73. Those in
mathematics are on page 99.

Military Science Program
The Military Science Program adds another dimension to a Lebanon Valley
College liberal arts education by offering courses that develop a student's
ability to organize, motivate, and lead others.
Participation in military science courses during the freshman and sophomore
years results in no military obligation. Courses during these years orient
students on the various roles of Army officers. Specifically, these courses
49
stress self development: written and oral communication skills, leadership,
bearing, and self-confidence.
Individuals who elect to continue in the program during the junior and senior
years shall receive a commission as a second lieutenant in the United States
Army upon graduation. They shall be required to serve three months to four
years in the active Army, depending upon the type of commission.
Options are available for those individuals who encounter scheduling con-
flicts or who desire to begin participation after their freshman year. Contact
the department chairperson for further information.
Program participants may take part in various enrichment activities during
the academic year: rappelling, rifle qualification, cross-country skiing, white-
water rafting, leadership exercises, land navigation, orientation trips, and for-
mal social functions. Program participants may also apply for special training
courses during the summer: Russian language, flight orientation, airborne,
air assault, and northern warfare schools.
Financial Assistance: Books and equipment for military science courses and
the ROTC program are provided free of charge to all cadets. However, all
cadets do pay an activity fee of $15 per semester. All juniors and seniors in
the ROTC program (Advanced Course) and scholarship cadets are paid a
tax-free subsistence allowance of $100 per month and receive certain other
benefits.
Scholarships: Army ROTC scholarships based on merit are available. Re-
cipients receive full tuition, academic fees, a semester allowance for books
and supplies, and a $100 per month subsistence allowance. Cadets and other
Lebanon Valley students may compete for three-year (starts in sophomore
year) and for two-year (starts in junior year) scholarships. Recipients agree
to a service obligation. Scholarships are also available for students entering
medical school or pursuing graduate studies in the basic health sciences.
Selected ROTC graduates also are eligible for scholarships to pursue graduate
studies in other academic disciplines. For additional information, contact the
department chairperson.
Corresponding Studies Program: Students participating in an off-campus
study program in the United States or abroad may continue participation in
either the Army ROTC Basic Course or Advanced Course and receive the
same course credit and benefits as a student enrolled in the on-campus pro-
gram. Scholarship students also are eligible to participate in this program.
Advanced Leadership Practicum: The practicum consists of a six-week
summer training program at an Army installation that stresses the application
50
of military skills to rapidly changing situations. Participants are evaluated on
their ability to make sound decisions, to direct group efforts toward the ac-
complishment of common goals and to meet the mental and physical chal-
lenges presented to them. Completion of this practicum is required prior to
commissioning and it normally is attended between the junior and senior
years. Participants receive room, board, travel expenses, medical care, and
pay.

Department Of Music
Students in the Department of Music may major in one of five areas: music,
music performance, sacred music, sound recording technology or music
education. Each student, regardless of major, is required to take a core of
courses in theory and music history. Each student also completes additional
course work particular to his/her area of interest.
Attendance at some faculty and student recitals is compulsory. All students
in the department are required to take private instruction on campus in their
principal performance medium. Students whose major applied instrument is
organ are required also to study piano, continuing until they have attained a
level of proficiency satisfactory to the organ faculty.
Students registered for private instruction in the music department are not
permitted to study in that instructional area on a private basis with another
instructor, on or off campus, at the same time.
51
Participation in music organizations may be required of all majors.
The music major (B.A.) is designed for those students desiring a liberal arts
context in their preparation for a career in applied music. All majors are re-
quired to take an hour lesson per week in their principal performance medium
and expected to perform a half recital in the junior year and a full recital in
the senior year.
The music performance major (B.M.) is designed for those students desir-
ing a maximum concentration in music courses in preparation for a career as
a performing musician. All majors are required to take a weekly one hour
lesson in the principal performance medium; they are also required to per-
form a half recital in the junior year and a full recital in the senior year.
Majors whose performance medium is a band or orchestral instrument are re-
quired to study voice and piano as well.
The sacred music major (B.M.) prepares students for careers as directors of
church music, ministers of music, or college teachers. The program is open
to those individuals whose interests are voice or organ. All majors are re-
quired to acquire sufficient skill to assume responsibilities as a qualified
parish church musician. Majors whose principal performance medium is
organ are required to study piano and voice for at least two years. One of
the years of voice study may be a class experience. Majors whose principal
performance medium is voice are expected to show sufficient keyboard profi-
ciency upon admission to the program so that after two additional years of
piano study (normally by the end of the sophomore year) they may benefit
from a year of organ study.
The sound recording technology major (B.M.) is designed for students
who wish to gain the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for
careers with responsibility for recording technology in the fields of radio and
television, film, and audio production.
The music education major (B.S.), approved by the Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Education and the National Association of Schools of Music, is
designed for the preparation of public school music teachers, kindergarten
through twelfth grades, instrumental and vocal. The music education cur-
riculum requires voice instruction (class or private) for a minimum of one
year and piano instruction (class or private) for a minimum of two years. A
competency jury must be passed in each area. Students participate in student
teaching in area elementary and secondary schools. In all field experiences
as well as the student teaching semester, each student is responsible for
transportation arrangements.

Political scientists study government and politics with a particular interest in
the political behavior of individuals, groups, and institutions. Many pre-law
students major in this discipline (see page 117 for offerings in the pre-law
program). Other majors have gone on to graduate school or careers in
politics.
Economists study the factors which explain the behavior of the economic
system and economic factors in that system. Graduates in one of the two
economics majors may go on to graduate school or to jobs in the private
sector or government.
Both disciplines emphasize an understanding of the public policy process.
They are designed to provide a sound knowledge of essential principles and
problems within a broad liberal arts education.

Department Of Psychology
It is the human psyche which permits and defines human endeavors. All
people have similar sensory and perceptual processes, motivations, emotions,
personality traits, and developmental sequences. These factors, the major
explanatory constructs in psychology, form the structure which defines a
human and at the same time makes an individual unique from others. The
study of psychology is, thus, the study of how you are the same as other
people as well as how you are different. Psychology focuses on your
behavior, as opposed to mental events, to make its explanations objective
and scientific.
The goal of psychology is, thus, the scientific explanation of behavior. The
objective is advanced in diverse ways: from laboratory experiments on animal
behavior at one extreme to clinical settings having therapeutic goals at the
58
other. This diversity makes psychology integral to business, education, and
medicine, and makes it the focus of any liberal arts education.
The undergraduate major in psychology at Lebanon Valley College is well
rounded. It includes elements of a general education in psychology as well
as elements more specially tailored to each student's specific career training.
Some students completing the major have gone on to prestigious graduate
schools while others have utilized their undergraduate training to take jobs in
their specialty areas immediately after graduation. The departmental degree
requirements are sensitive to this career diversity.
The general education in psychology, required of all psychology majors, in-
cludes course work in The Individual and Society (Psy 100), Experimental
Psychology (Psy 120), Advanced General Psychology (Psy 200), Psychologi-
cal Statistics (Psy 216), Learning and Memory (Psy 236), Personality (Psy
343), and the History of Psychology (Psy 443). These courses provide a
firm foundation for specialization in any of the content ares of psychology.
The student majoring in psychology is also required to specialize in one of
psychology's five content areas: (1) clinical, counseling and school psycho-
logy; (2) experimental psychology; (3) developmental psychology; (4) indus-
trial/organizational psychology; or (5) social psychology. The three required
courses in an area of specialization are intended to link the liberal arts to
specific career goals.
In addition to these general and specialized courses, all psychology majors
are encouraged to participate in the educational process beyond the classroom
through individual studies, laboratory research, and internships. The depart-
ment is committed to providing opportunities for work experiences as a com-
ponent of the psychology major.

60
Department Of Religion And Philosophy
The study of religion is designed to give students insight into the meaning of
the religious dimension of human experience. Coursework introduces
students to various historical and contemporary expressions of the Judaeo-
Christian heritage as well as to the diverse religious traditions of humankind.
In general, students major in religion to ready themselves for theological
seminary, for careers in Christian education, or to acquire the theological
maturity which, in combination with another major, will enable them to
function as lay ministers in their chosen profession.
The study of philosophy directly involves the student in the process of
sharpening critical and analytical abilities. In all classes emphasis is placed
upon the writing of critical and analytical essays dealing with various aspects
of philosophical thought as it pertains to the questions and issues of knowl-
edge, human values and conduct, history, politics, religion, science, society,
and the nature of human beings.
The study of philosophy may prepare the student for postgraduate activities
such as legal studies, business, or theological and seminary training.
The major, minor, and course requirements in philosophy are on page 111.
Those in religion are on page 122.

Department Of Sociology And Social Work
The major in sociology gives students an understanding of human behavior.
By examining the social and cultural forces that shape our lives, students
gain a richer understanding of themselves and contemporary social issues.
Sociology explores how and why people behave as they do as well as the
effects of their behavior on others. In an economy that is moving from a
manufacturing base to a service orientation, graduates in sociology are
prepared to work in fields where an understanding of the dynamics of human
relationships is important.
The social work major prepares students for beginning professional practice
in a variety of social work settings. The major emphasizes the generalist ap-
proach by offering a solid foundation of core courses based on social work
theory and practice. The program also provides students the opportunity to
focus upon areas of personal and professional interest by choosing a concen-
tration in such areas as criminal justice, family intervention, and the aged
and aging/death and dying.

TRANSFER CREDIT
A maximum of six credits may be transferred from another accredited
graduate program with the approval of the Director of Continuing Education.
No transfer credit shall be accepted if the grade eamed at another institution
was less than B. Students wishing to transfer credits may be asked to submit
course outlines, textbook used, and any reading materials so proper credit
may be given.
CONCURRENT COURSES
A student enrolled for the MBA degree may not take courses concurrently at
any other educational institution without prior consent of the MBA Academic
Advisor and the Registrar.
GRADING
Student achievement is graded A (distinguished performance), B (superior
work), C (minimum passing grade, but unsatisfactory work), F (course re-
quirements not met). No MBA courses may be taken pass/fail. A cumulative
grade point average of 3.0 (4.0 = A) with only one C within the 36
graduate credits is required for graduation. Graduate courses are not graded
plus or minus.
In addition to the above grades, the symbols I and W also are used. I in-
dicates that student work is incomplete (certain required work postponed by
the student for substantial reason with the prior consent of the instructor and
the Registrar), but otherwise satisfactory. The work must be completed
within the first eight weeks of the following semester including summer
semesters or the I automatically becomes an F. W indicates withdrawal from
a course.
REVIEW PROCEDURE
Every student's academic progress shall be reviewed at the end of each
academic period by the MBA Academic Advisor. Any student whose
average falls below 3.0 or who earns a C or F in three or more credit hours
may be placed on academic probation. A student on academic probation may
be required to retake courses or correct other academic deficiencies. Students
who fail to correct deficiencies may be dropped from the program. A student
may appeal any decision of the Director of Continuing Education to the
MBA Operations Committee.
136
