Through  Summer  Sessions,  extension  and  evening  classes,  Lebanon 
Valley  College  is  enabling  many  teachers  and  others  to  attend  College 
courses  and  secure  academic  degrees  who,  for  one  reason  or  another, 
could  not  otherwise  do  so.  By  a  careful  selection  of  courses  and  consul- 
tation with  the  heads  of  departments  in  the  college  a  student  can  meet 
the  requirements  of  the  college  for  a  baccalaureate  degree  while  contin- 
uing in  his   or  her  occupation. 

SPECIAL   REQUIREMENTS 

In  addition  to  the  General  Requirements  listed  above  some  of  the  de- 
partments require  students  majoring  therein  to  take  certain  additional 
courses  in  subjects  closely  related  to  the  Major. 

Students  outlining  a  course  for  a  degree  should  communicate  at  once 
with  the  Head  of  the  Department  in  which  they  intend  to  Major. 

Candidates  for  the  Baccalaureate  degree  who  desire  to  be  admitted 
to  advanced  standing  by  virtue  of  work  done  in  other  institutions,  should 
lose  no  time  in  having  their  credits  evaluated  by  the  Registrar,  in  order 
that  they  may  be  informed  as  to  what  requirements  they  must  meet  for 
graduation. 

RESIDENCE    REQUIREMENTS

have  completed  a  minimum  of  30  semester  hours  work  in  regularly  con- 
ducted classes  on  the  college  campus.  Teachers  in  service  may  meet  this 
requirement  by  attending  the  Summer  School  and  Friday  and  Saturday 
classes  held  during  the  year  at  the  college.  Credits  earned  in  extension 
classes  are  not  residence  credits.

lowing: Archery,  Badminton,  Hand  Ball,  Organized  Hikes,  Tennis  and
