Purpose  and  Objectives 


Lycoming  College  devotes  itself  to  the  vocation  of  humanity:  the  vocation 
that  enables  man  to  become  aware  of  what  it  means  to  love  truth,  goodness 
and  beauty,  by 

fostering  free  inquiry  and  learning  in  a  curricular  experience  that  pro- 
vides basic  knowledge  of  the  cultural,  social  and  natural  world, 

developing  searching,  critical,  and  creative  attitudes  of  mind,  encourag- 
ing cultural  explorations  essential  to  a  free  society, 

aflRrming  the  Christian  faith  as  a  vahd  interpretation  of  the  vocation 
of  humanity, 

developing  an  appreciation  for  the  values  of  social,  mental  and  physical 
well-being,  and 

preparing  students  for  professional  and  vocational  opportunities  that 
may  be  pursued  upon  a  more  humanitarian  level  because  of  founda- 
tions laid  by  a  strong  liberal  education. 

"Vocation  of  humanity"  suggests  that  the  primary  concern  of  Tlie  Col- 
lege is  human  life  and  living.  We  find  this  concern  manifesting  itself,  in  a 
Christian  setting,  as  an  affirmation  of  the  fundamental  dignity  and  worth 
of  all  human  beings.  The  entire  program  of  The  College  is  directed  toward 
fulfillment  of  objectives  that  seek  to  fit  young  men  and  women  for  "the 
living  of  these  days,"  in  a  global  society  in  which  the  priceless  commodity 
is  human  life.  Lycoming  College  redefined  its  educational  mission  in  1960 
by  the  formulation  of  the  specific  objectives  above.  It  now  faces  the  decade 
ahead  with  the  confidence  that  man's  best  chance  for  survival  lies  in  wis- 
dom, knowledge,  and  understanding  born  of  liberal  education.

History 


While  the  specific  objectives  of  The  College  have  varied  somewhat 
with  the  changing  years,  its  purpose  of  providing  educational  opportunities 
for  young  men  and  women  has  remained  consistent  throughout  the  153 
years  of  its  history. 

Founded  in  1812  as  Williamsport  Academy,  it  is  the  oldest  educational 
institution  in  the  city  of  Williamsport.  At  first,  the  Academy  served  only 
the  young  dirough  what  are  now  recognized  as  the  elementary  grades.  Widi 
the  advent  of  pubhc  schools  in  the  city,  the  Academy  expanded  its  cur- 
ricular  offerings  to  include  high  school  and  college  preparatory  work. 

In  1848,  under  die  patronage  of  The  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  the 
Academy  became  Williamsport  Dickinson  Seminary.  The  Seminary  con- 
tinued as  a  private  boarding  school  until  1929  when  once  again  its  offerings 
were  expanded  to  include  the  first  two  years  of  college  work.  This  expan- 
sion resulted  in  a  change  of  the  institution's  name  to  Williamsport  Dickinson 
Junior  College.  Dtning  its  years  as  a  junior  college  under  President  John 
W.  Long,  the  institution  forged  a  strong  academic  reputation,  strengthened 
its  faculty  and  expanded  its  physical  plant. 

Increasing  national  demands  for  higher  education  following  World 
War  II  prompted  another  significant  step  in  the  growth  of  the  institution. 
In  1948,  the  junior  college  became  Lycoming,  a  four-year  degree-granting 
college  of  liberal  arts  and  sciences.  The  name  Lycoming  is  derived  from 
an  Indian  word  "lacomic"  meaning  "Great  Stream."  It  is  a  name  that  has 
been  common  to  north  central  Pennsylvania  since  colonial  times  and  is  an 
appropriate  one  for  a  school  whose  purpose  has  been  consistently  that  of 
educating  die  area's  young  men  and  women.  Tlirougli  fulfillment  of  its 
specific  objectives,  it  has  been  and  continues  to  be  an  influential  voice  in 
the  educational,  cultural  and  spiritual  development  of  die  entire  north 
central  Pennsylvania  region.

Locali 


Lycoming  College  is  situated  upon  a  slight  prominence  in  downtown 
Williamsport,  Pennsylvania,  overlooking  the  beautiful  West  Branch  Valley 
of  the  Susquehanna  River.  The  cit>-  has  a  population  of  some  forty-five 
thousand  who  consider  The  College  one  of  its  finest  assets. 

WiUiamsport  was  once  the  center  of  the  lumbering  industry  of  the 
northeastern  United  States  and,  while  some  ^'estiges  of  that  enterprise 
remain,  the  mid-twentieth  century  finds  the  city  expanding  with  many 
widely  diversified  industries. 

The  area  around  \^'illiamsport  is  famous  for  its  beautiful  mountain 
scenery  and  fine  outdoor  recreational  facilities.  Every  year,  thousands  are 
attracted  to  the  wooded  mountain  sides  and  crystal-clear  streams  where 
the  outdoor  sports,  hunting  and  fishing,  are  unsurpassed.  The  city  has  two 
large  parks,  a  municipal  golf  course,  tennis  courts  and  numerous  play- 
grounds. Public  education  is  represented  by  excellent  schools  both  in  the 
city  and  in  the  surrounding  townships  and  boroughs.  Many  cultural 
opportunities  are  provided  by  Lycoming  College,  the  Civic  Choir,  the 
Community  Arts  Festixal  and  the  Community  Concert  Association.  Eighty- 
eight  churches  representing  a  number  of  denominations  minister  to  the 
spiritual  needs  of  the  community. 

Within  America's  industrial  Northeast,  Williamsport  is  indeed  centrally 
located.  It  is  appro.ximately  two-hundred  miles  from  die  major  urban  cen- 
ters of  the  region:  Washington,  D.  C,  Baltimore,  Philadelphia,  New  York, 
Syracuse,  Rochester,  Buffalo  and  Pittsburgh.  The  cit>'  is  easily  accessible 
by  airline,  train,  bus  and  automobile.  Allegheny,  United  and  Trans  World 
Airlines  provide  seventeen  flights  dail>-  with  direct  passenger  service  to 
\irtually  all  Penns>'lvania  cities  as  well  as  New  York,  .\lbany.  Rochester, 
Buffalo,  Boston,  Providence,  Cleveland,  Detroit  and  \\'ashington,  D.  C. 
The  Pennsylvania  Railroad  offers  daily  passenger  ser\'ice  to  Buffalo,  Harris- 
burg,  and  Washington  widi  connections  at  Harrisburg  to  all  major  cities. 
Greyhound  Bus  Lines  and  Ed\\ards  Lakes  to  Sea  S>stem  operate  daily 
schedules  to  all  points.  U.  S.  Higliways  15  and  220  are  routed  through 
the  Williamsport  area  as  are  State  Highways  87,  118,  147,  and  287.  The  new 
Interstate  Highway  80.  The  Keystone  Shortway,  will  cross  the  state  just 
a  few  miles  south  of  Williamsport.

Traditions 


The  long  and  enduring  history  of  Lycoming  and  the  attractive  geo- 
graphic setting  combine  to  provide  fertile  ground  for  the  seeds  of  enriching 
expansion,  a  factor  that  has  become  one  of  the  College's  major  traditions. 
To  be  sure,  the  alumni  nostalgically  remember  "Old  Main"  and  the  other 
buildings,  but  what  seems  most  characteristic  of  their  college  is  its  amazing 
capacity  for  growth:  growth  that  continues  to  meet  the  demands  of  our 
changing  society  and  its  evolving  culture. 

Through  more  than  a  century  of  its  histor\-,  The  College  has  had  the 
stabilizing  influence  of  The  Methodist  Church.  The  evolution  of  Lycoming 
from  its  origins  to  its  present  status  has  been  accomplished  with  the  con- 
tinuous conviction  that  a  Christian  philosophy  of  life  is  the  proper  leaxen 
of  higher  education.  Lycoming  strives  to  foster  a  Christian  atmosphere  in 
all  aspects  of  the  college  program  and  to  stress  the  development  and  prac- 
tice of  a  Christian  way  of  life. 

Lycoming  College  is  owned  by  the  Preacher's  Aid  Society  of  The  Cen- 
tral Pennsyhania  Annual  Conference  of  The  Methodist  Church.  The  faculty 
and  students  express  their  religious  convictions  through  membership  and 
participation  in  the  churches  of  almost  thirty'  Protestant  denominations  as 
well  as  the  Roman  Catholic  and  Hebrew  faiths.  Significant  opportunities 
are  offered  every  student  for  personal  expression  of  religious  faith.  Loyalty 
to  the  church  of  one's  choice  is  encouraged. 

Lycoming  College  firmly  believes  in  Christian  higher  education.  One 
of  its  major  objectives  is  continuous  affirmation  of  the  validity  of  the  Chris- 
tian faith  as  a  way  of  life.  Fulfillment  of  this  objective  is  accomplished  by 
the  support  of  a  strong  Department  of  Religion.  This  department  was 
established  through  the  generosity  of  the  late  Honorable  M.  B.  Rich,  for 
ten  years  President  of  the  Board  of  Directors. 

An  emphasis  upon  Christian  worship  and  thought  is  also  offered  by 
the  weekly  Chapel  Program.  It  brings  to  the  campus  outstanding  religious 
leaders  who  share  with  the  Student  Body  die  best  in  contemporary  religious 
thinking.  Chapel  has  become  a  strong  tradition  on  the  Lycoming  campus. 
Attendance  is  required  of  all  students  who  are  enrolled  full-time.  Students 
are  expected  to  attend  The  Chapel  on  a  regularly  scheduled  basis  on  at 
least  fourteen  occasions  throughout  any  one  college  year.

ACADEMIC  PROGRAM 


Ad 


missions 


Admission  to  college  today  is  becoming  increasingly  competitive  and 
undoubtedly  it  will  continue  to  be  so;  thus,  in  this  situation,  it  is  for  each 
college  to  define  its  future  position. 

At  Lycoming  College  there  is  to  be  an  increase  in  the  size  of  the  cam- 
pus, the  addition  of  new  facilities,  the  continuous  improvement  of  the 
faculty,  and  the  development  of  a  larger  student  body.  There  is  no  intent 
to  become  so  large  as  to  lose  identity  as  a  small  church-related  college, 
but  large  enough  to  provide  quahty  education  for  an  increased  number  of 
students. 

ADMISSION  POLICY 

The  College  Committee  on  Admissions  sets  policy  and  constructs  the 
standard  to  guide  the  selection  of  candidates. 

It  is  the  wish  of  the  Committee  diat,  in  making  selections,  emphasis  be 
placed  upon  academic  measures  as  evidenced  by  school  records  and  exam- 
inations. Strength  of  character,  acceptable  social  habits,  and  contributions 
to  school  and  community  are  other  factors  considered  by  the  Committee. 

Admission  to  Lycoming  College,  in  addition  to  the  aforementioned 
criteria,  requires  the  usual  evidence  of  satisfactory  secondary  school  prep- 
aration: graduation  from  an  approved  school  with  sixteen  academic  units 
including  four  units  of  English,  at  least  two  units  of  one  foreign  language, 
two  units  of  science,  two  of  history,  and  two  of  mathematics. 

Cooperative  engineering  students  and  mathematics  majors  must  include 
plane  geometry  as  one  of  the  two  units  of  mathematics.  A  letter  of  recom- 
mendation from  die  applicant's  private  teacher  and/or  high  school  music 
supervisor  should  accompany  the  application  of  music  majors. 

APPLICATION  PROCEDURE 

Persons  desiring  to  apply  for  admission  should  request  official  forms 
from  the  Director  of  Admissions. 

The  Admissions  Office  compiles  a  personal  file  for  each  applicant  and 
the  following  items  must  be  submitted  before  a  final  decision  is  made: 

16 


Admissions  17 

1.  Application  for  Admission  and  secondary  school  record  on  forms 
supplied  by  the  College.  A  registration  fee  of  $15.00  must  accompany  each 
application.    This  fee  is  not  refundable. 

2.  A  small  recent  photograph  ( approximately  2"  .x  3" )  of  the  applicant. 

3.  The  Scholastic  Aptitude  Test  of  the  College  Entrance  Examination 
Board.  Applicants  wishing  to  enter  the  College  in  September  should  arrange 
to  take  these  e.xaminations  no  later  than  February  of  their  senior  year.

advise  any  applicant  on  this  matter. 

4.  Candidates  are  requested  to  visit  the  campus  and  to  meet  with  the 
Director  of  Admissions  or  a  representative  of  the  Admissions  Office.  This 
time  provides  an  ox^portunity  for  reviewing  the  candidate's  credential  file, 
discussing  plans,  and  answering  questions. 

SELECTION  PROCESS 

Admission  to  Lycoming  College  is  on  a  competitive  basis  and  should 
be  regarded  as  selective.  Early  filing  of  an  application,  while  encouraged, 
does  not  assure  admission,  because  applications  will  be  accepted  until  a 
number  large  enough  to  assure  a  reasonable  selection  has  been  received. 

Candidates  who  have  completed  applications  before  March  1,  may 
e.xpect  to  hear  from  the  committee  sometime  after  March  15,  but  before 
Aprill. 

Candidates  who  complete  applications  after  March  1  may  expect  to 
hear  sometime  after  April  1.  These  candidates,  even  if  well  qualified 
(especially  in  the  case  of  women),  might  necessarily  have  to  be  placed  on 
a  waiting  list. 

EARLY  DECISION  PLAN 

Lycoming  College  has  adopted  an  Early  Decision  Plan  which  will 
permit  die  Director  of  Admissions  to  notify  Well  qualified  candidates  at  the 
beginning  of  their  senior  year  in  high  school  diat  their  admission  to  the 
college  is  assured  upon  graduation.  Further  information  concerning  the 
Early  Decision  Plan  can  be  obtained  from  the  Director  of  Admissions.

ADVANCED  STANDING  BY  PLACEMENT 

Incoming  freshmen  who  have  achieved  satisfactory  scores  in  the  stand- 
ard Advanced  Placement  Examinations  are  permitted  to  enroll  in  advanced 
courses  on  the  college  level  during  their  freshman  year.  Such  students 
receive  college  credit  equal  to  that  assigned  to  the  freshman  course  which 
is  waived.  These  credits  are  to  be  entered  upon  the  students'  records  without 
the  regular  tuition  charge.  Students  who  offer  satisfactory  scores  in  four  or 
more  Advanced  Placement  Examinations  are  admitted  to  The  College  as 
sophomores. 

ADVANCED  STANDING  BY  TRANSFER 

Transfer  students  whose  records  are  satisfactory  in  all  respects  may  apply 
for  advanced  standing.  Those  who  apply  should  follow  the  application  pro- 
cedure described  previously,  and  in  addition,  should  submit  a  transcript 
of  previous  college  work,  letters  of  reference  from  both  the  Academic  and 
Personnel  Deans  of  the  college  and  evidence  of  honorable  dismissal. 

A  student  admitted  with  advanced  standing  is  required  to  complete  his 
last  two  years  at  Lycoming  in  order  to  qualify  for  a  bachelor's  degree.  To 
be  awarded  a  degree,  transfer  students  must  satisfy  all  of  the  graduation 
requirements  of  Lycoming  College. 

If  an  interview  is  to  be  required,  you  will  be  notified  and  a  mutually 
convenient  time  will  be  arranged. 

A  procedure  list  to  be  followed  by  transfer  students  when  applying  for 
admission  will  be  sent  upon  request. 


SUMMER  ENROLLMENT  OF  PRE-COLLEGE  STUDENTS 

By  special  arrangement,  qualified  high  school  students  who  have  com- 
pleted their  sophomore,  junior  or  senior  years  may  be  admitted  to  the  Col- 
lege summer  program  to  take  certain  courses.  Such  students  will  receive 
college  credit  for  all  work  that  is  passed.  Courses  especially  recommended 
in  this  program  are  the  college  freshman  and  sophomore  courses  in  foreign 
languages  and  mathematics.  Admission  to  the  sophomore  level  courses  in 
these  departments  would  depend  upon  previous  achievement  as  deter- 
mined by  a  qualifying  examination  administered  at  the  time  of  registration.

within  the  normal  eight  (8)  semesters  of  college  work,  their  cases  are  re-

are  excessively  low  in  any  one  semester.  It  also  reserves  the  right  to  dismiss 
any  student  when  such  dismissal  is  in  the  best  interests  of  The  College. 

CLASS  ATTENDANCE 

The  academic  program  at  Lycoming  is  based  upon  the  assumption 
that  there  is  value  in  class  attendance  for  all  students.  Individual  instruc- 
tors have  the  privilege  of  establishing  reasonable  absence  regulations  in 
any  given  course.  Responsibility  for  learning  and  observing  these  regula- 
tions rests  with  the  student. 


Degree  Programs 


BASIC  CONCEPTS  IN  LIBERAL  EDUCATION.  From  among  the 
many  valid  approaches  to  fulfillment  of  collegiate  aims  and  objectives, 
Lycoming  has  selected  fresh  interpretations  of  some  old  and  honorable 
concepts:  That  education  is  continuous  accrual  of  knowledge  and  wisdom; 
that  human  knowledge  of  trutlis  has  been  accrued  chiefly  by  means  of  in- 
vestigations into  specific  areas  of  possible  inquiry;  that  the  traditional  liberal 
arts  are  the  great  and  fundamental  reservoirs  of  these  truths;  and  that 
teacher  and  students  together  provide  the  best  opportunity  for  transmitting 
these  truths. 


DEPARTMENTAL  STRUCTURE.  In  redefining  its  collegiate  charac- 
ter, Lycoming  recognizes  the  validity  of  cataloguing  knowledge  into  specific 
categories  in  order  that  learning  may  be  transmitted  more  readily.  Courses 
offered  by  the  College  are  organized  therefore,  by  departments  patterned 
after  the  traditional  liberal  arts  and  sciences.  In  many  instances,  these  de- 
partments carry  the  same  names  as  courses  taken  in  the  high  school.  So  it 
is  that  college  students  may  continue  to  deepen  interests  in  well-known 
subjects,  but  at  the  same  time,  they  are  expected  to  increase  the  scope  of 
their  intellectual  development  by  electing  courses  in  other  departments 
with  less  familiar  titles. 


UNIT  COURSE.  Lycoming  also  recognizes  the  validity  of  conveying 
knowledge  and  wisdom  by  means  of  the  traditional  course  offering.  It  has 
reinterpreted  the  traditional  course  to  mean  a  single  unit  of  academic  work 
consisting  of  teaching  and  learning  in  classroom  experiences  for  approximate- 
ly four  hours  each  week  for  a  semester.  Thus,  all  courses  offered  by  the 
College  are  unit  courses,  each  carrying  identical  credit,  each  making  similar 
demands  in  time  and  effort  upon  the  student.  Normally,  four  unit  courses 
will  be  elected  during  any  one  semester.  One  unit  course  may  be  elected

THE  MAJOR 

New  interpretations  of  the  traditional  departmental  approach  to  learn- 
ing involve  increasing  emphases  upon  deepened  interests  and  scholastic 
opportunities  in  a  single  department  referred  to  as  The  Major. 

College  standards  demand  that  all  students  pass  at  least  eight  specified 
unit  courses  in  the  major.  Courses  numbered  1-8  in  most  departments  will 
compose  the  normal  sequence  of  major  courses.  However,  some  deviation, 
with  consent  of  the  facult)'  advisor,  will  be  permitted  for  e.xceptional 
students. 

The  eight  units  making  up  the  core  of  the  major  program  are  the 
suggested  minimum.  Many  students  will  be  satisfied  with  this  minimum, 
but  ample  opportunity  is  pro\'ided  for  the  gifted  student  to  probe  somewhat 
more  deeply  into  his  major.  A  series  of  ad\anced  le\el  courses  open  onl\' 
to  qualified  junior  and  senior  students  with  consent  of  the  department  head 
or  instructor  shall  be  made  available  in  each  department  ofi^ering  a  major. 
The  specific  subjects  selected  for  such  advanced  studies  may  be  highly 
diversified,  and  may  take  the  form  of  independent  study,  honors,  seminars, 
fundamental  research  or  small  classes  informally  organized.  It  is  under- 
stood that  all  such  courses  shall  normally  be  one  unit  courses. 

Selection  of  a  major  is  entirely  at  the  discretion  of  the  student.  The 
choice  is  governed  by  some  important  factors  such  as  vocational  aims,  apti- 
tudes and  interests.  Whatever  the  reason,  the  student  should,  by  the  close 
of  his  freshman  year,  have  selected  a  major.  In  some  instances,  it  is  possible 
to  defer  this  decision  until  the  end  of  the  sophomore  year  but  any  further 
postponement  is  likely  to  mandate  some  additional  summer  work  in  order 
to  complete  the  major  on  schedule. 

The  number  of  departments  offering  majors  to  Lycoming  College 
students  is  not  extensive.  However,  all  the  departments  encompassing  the 
great  liberal  traditions  are  represented.  At  least  eight  unit  courses  (suffi- 
cient for  a  major)  are  ofiFered  in  each  subject  as  follows: 

Accounting  Mathematics 

Art  Music 

Biology  Philosophy 

Business  Administration  Physics 

Chemistry  Pohtical  Science 

Economics  Psychology 

Enghsh  Religion 

French  Russian 

German  Sociology  and  Anthropology 

History  Spanish 

International  Relations  Theatre 


24  Lycoming  College  Bulletin 

Some  courses  are  also  offered  in  subjects  in  which  a  major  is  not 
available.  These  courses  are  normally  elective,  but  in  some  instances,  they 
may  be  used  to  fulfill  supporting  or  distribution  course  requirements 

Czech  Latin 

Education  Law 

Geolog)'  Speech 

Greek  Statistics 
Italian 

Occasionally,  students  may  be  privileged  to  pursue  a  kind  of  academic 
major  that  cuts  across  the  more  traditional  departmental  major.  Such  a 
program  is  the  major  in  American  Civilization,  where  students  may,  with 
consent  of  the  Chairmen  of  the  History  and  English  departments,  organize 
a  course  of  studies  imolving  advanced  work  in  both  departments,  supple- 
mented by  course  elections  from  other  departments  that  will  contribute 
significantly.  Appro\'al  to  follow  majors  of  this  nature  must  be  secured 
from  the  facultv  committee  on  instruction. 


COURSES  SUPPORTING  THE  MAJOR 

The  special  fields  of  human  inquiry  show  clear  evidence  of  interde- 
pendence. Knowledge  in  some  academic  departments  may  be  considerably 
enhanced  by  knowledge  obtained  from  another.  For  example,  knowledge 
of  chemistry  is  unquestionably  supported  and  enhanced  by  knowledge  of 
fundamental  concepts  of  mathematics.  It  is  for  this  reason  that  a  student's 
educational  program  shall  include  a  number  of  unit  courses  from  depart- 
ments other  than  the  major.  Counsel  of  the  facult>'  advisor  is  always 
sought  in  determining  which  courses  will  properly  support  the  major. 

THE  DISTRIBUTION  REQUIREMENTS 

The  major  and  its  supporting  courses  are  inseparably  entwined  within 
the  heart  of  Christian  liberal  education.  In  some  degree,  the  educational 
objectives  of  a  college,  particularly  that  of  depth  in  a  subject,  might  be 
fulfilled  by  the  satisfaction  of  major  and  supporting  course  requirements. 
But  the  truly  liberally  educated  Christian  has  something  more  than  depth 
in  a  subject  can  provide.  His  aesthetic  and  literary  tastes  are  cultivated, 
his  perception  of  the  environment  is  unmasked,  his  conscience  is  quickened 
in  tlie  light  of  the  world's  problems,  his  sensitivity  to  cultural  change  is 
honed  to  a  new  sharpness,  and  his  awareness  of  the  ethical  and  religious 
implications  of  his  personal  behavior  is  deepened.    The  magnitude  of  the 


Degree  Programs  25 

task  suggested  by  these  characteristics  places  unusual  stresses  on  the  educa- 
tional program  of  any  Christian  liberal  arts  college.  Ne\'ertheless,  L\'coming 
accepts  the  responsibilities  of  the  challenge.  It  does  so  by  requiring  that 
students  pass  at  least  one  year  ( two  unit  courses )  of  collegiate  le\'el  work  in 
each  of  the  following  areas  or  groups  of  departments.  Courses  that  meet 
these  distribution  requirements  are  selected  by  the  student  in  consultation 
with  his  faculty  advisor. 

FRESHMAN  ENGLISH.  All  students  are  required  to  pass  English 
1-2,  Freshman  English.  Students  who  have  achieved  a  sufficiently  high  score 
in  the  ETS  Advanced  Placement  Test  in  English  may  have  this  requirement 
waived  in  favor  of  English  3-4. 

FOREIGN  LANGUAGE  OR  MATHEMATICS.  All  students  are 
required  to  pass  at  least  one  year  (two  unit  courses)  of  second  or  third 
year  Foreign  Language  or  Mathematics.  This  requirement  may  be  met  in 
one  of  several  ways. 

Foreign  Language.  Students  electing  to  take  a  foreign  language  may 
choose  from  among  French,  German,  Greek,  Latin  (if  offered),  Russian  or 
Spanish.  Placement  at  the  appropriate  course  le\el  in  the  selected  language 
will  be  determined  by  the  faculty  members  of  the  Foreign  Language 
Department.  Determination  of  the  appropriate  course  le\el  is  based  upon 
a  review  of  the  student's  record  including  high  school  grades,  scores  on  the 
College  Board  Achie\'ement  Tests  or  scores  of  similar  examinations  admin- 
istered by  the  College. 

A  prior  record  of  sufficient  quality  may  enable  the  student  to  be  entered 
into  second  or  third  year  courses  in  a  language.  In  such  cases,  only  one 
year  (two  unit  courses)  is  required.  A  record  of  insufficient  quality,  or 
the  absence  of  any  appropriate  language  on  the  high  school  record  will 
cause  the  student  to  be  entered  into  a  first  year  language  course.  In  such 
cases,  two  years  (four  unit  courses)  of  one  language  are  required. 

Mathematics.  Students  electing  to  take  mathematics  will  be  placed  at 
appropriate  levels  of  competence  as  detenuined  by  Placement  Tests. 

RELIGION  OR  PHILOSOPHY.  All  students  are  required  to  pass  one 
year  (two  unit  courses)  in  one  of  the  following:  (a)  Philosophy,  (b) 
Religion. 


26  Lycoming  College  Bulletin 

FINE  ARTS.  All  students  are  required  to  pass  one  year  (two  unit 
courses)  in  one  of  the  following: 

(a)  Art.   Normally,  any  two  courses  in  art  will  satisfy  this  requirement. 

(b)  Literature.  Students  may  elect  one  year  of  English  Literature, 
English  3-4,  or  one  year  of  a  Foreign  Language  chosen  from 
among  courses  numbered  5-6  or  above. 

(c)  Music.  The  basic  courses  in  Music  Appreciation,  Music  1-2,  or 
Music  Theory,  Music  3-4  will  satisfy  this  requirement. 

(d)  Theatre.  Theatre  1-2  will  satisfy  this  requirement.  However,  stu- 
dents who  participate  in  the  Summer  Theater  Workshop  ha\e  also 
satisfied  the  fine  arts  requirement.  Courses  in  basic  Speech  are 
not  applicable  toward  meeting  the  requirement  in  fine  arts. 

NATURAL  SCIENCE.  All  students  are  required  to  pass  one  year  (two 
unit  courses)  in  one  of  the  following:  (a)  Biology,  (b)  Chemistry,  (c) 
Geology  or  (d)  Physics. 

HISTORY  AND  SOCIAL  SCIENCE.  All  students  are  required  to  pass 
one  year  (t^vo  unit  courses)  in  one  of  the  following:  (a)  Economics,  (b) 
Histor\'.  (c)  International  Relations,  (d)  Political  Science,  (e)  Psychology 
or  (f)  Sociology  and  Anthropology. 


SPECIAL  OPPORTUNITIES  FOR  STUDENTS 

The  changing  nature  of  American  education  finds  greater  emphasis 
than  ever  before  upon  the  de\elopment  of  significant  opportunities  for  self- 
fulfillment  among  students.  Pertinent  educational  goals  demand  that  every 
student  shall  be  accorded  an  opportunity  to  pursue  a  program  that  offers 
him  the  best  chance  to  realize  his  intellectual  potential.  It  is  for  this  reason, 
that  Lycoming  has  developed  a  curriculum  that  allows  a  maximum  flexibility 
in  course  selection,  especially  among  those  courses  diat  support  the  major 
as  well  as  those  that  effectively  meet  the  requirements  of  the  College's  ob- 
jecti\'es  in  liberal  education.  But  wide  variety  in  course  selection  does  not 
always  allow  as  completely  individualistic  a  program  as  one  might  wish. 
Therefore,  a  variety  of  special  educational  opportunities  are  provided. 


Decree  Programs  27 

Studies 

INDEPENDENT  STUDY.  Each  department  granting  a  major  provides 
opportunity  to  students  to  work  independently.  Upon  consent  of  the  depart- 
ment head,  and  the  instructor,  a  student  may  register  for  courses  in  in- 
dependent study.  Nonnally,  the  opportimity  for  such  study  is  provided  for 
the  better  quahfied  major  student  who  has  successfully  completed  the  courses 
making  up  the  core  of  his  major  program.  Except  under  unusual  circum- 
stances, registration  for  the  studies  course  is  limited  to  one  unit  course  dur- 
ing each  semester.  If  a  student  wishes  to  elect  three  or  more  unit  courses  in 
Studies  in  his  total  college  program,  approval  of  the  Faculty  Committee  on 
Instruction  must  be  secured.  Students  who  are  privileged  to  elect  Indepen- 
dent Study  in  any  department  register  for  courses  numbered  31-32,  Studies, 
with  an  appropriate  title  to  be  entered  upon  the  student's  permanent  record. 

SEMINAR  STUDY.  The  several  departments  may  from  time  to  time 
find  it  possible  to  organize  small  classes  or  seminars  for  e.xceptional  students 
interested  in  subjects  or  topics  not  usually  a  part  of  departmental  course 
offerings.  Establishment  of  the  seminar  and  admission  of  students  depends 
upon  the  approval  of  the  department  involved.  Occasionally,  Visiting  Pro- 
fessors, Lectvirers,  or  Specialists  in  Residence  \\ill  offer  such  seminar  studies. 
Students  who  are  privileged  to  elect  Seminar  Study  in  any  department  regis- 
ter for  courses  numbered  31-32,  Studies,  with  an  appropriate  title  to  be  en- 
tered upon  the  student's  permanent  record.  Enrollment  in  seminar  courses 
is  limited  to  ten  students. 

DEPARTMENTAL  HONORS.  \\'hen  a  student  desires  to  enter  an 
Honors  program  and  secures  departmental  approval  to  apply,  a  facult\- 
committee  shall  be  con\'ened  whose  initial  responsibility  shall  be  to  pass 
upon  the  student's  eligibility  to  enter  the  program.  The  Committee  responsi- 
bility shall  also  include  the  direction  of  the  study,  and  final  e\aluation  of 
its  worth.  The  committee  shall  be  composed  of  two  faculty  members  from 
the  student's  major  department,  one  of  whom  shall  be  the  faculty  member 
under  whose  immediate  supervision  the  study  is  performed,  and  one  mem- 
ber from  each  of  two  other  departments  related  to  the  subject  matter  of 
the  study.  Committee  members  shall  be  selected  from  among  the  faculty 
members  who  are  personally  acquainted  with  the  applicant's  abilities.  Selec- 
tion of  persons  to  serve  on  the  committee  is  made  by  the  head  of  the  appli- 
cant's major  department,  after  consultation  with  the  heads  of  other  depart- 
ments invoh'ed.  Usually  the  honors  program  involves  independent  study  in 
two  consecutive  unit  courses.  In  order  that  a  student  be  privileged  to 
register  for  three  or  more  unit  courses  in  Honors  in  his  total  college  program. 


28  Lycoming  College  Bulletin 

approval  of  the  Faculty  Committee  on  Instruction  must  be  secured.  Students 
who  are  privileged  to  elect  Honors  register  for  courses  numbered  41-42. 

Honors  study  is  expected  to  result  in  the  completion  of  a  tliesis  to  be 
defended  in  a  final  oral  e.xamination.  Acceptable  theses  shall  be  deposited 
in  the  College  Library.  Successful  completion  of  the  Honors  program  will 
cause  the  designation  of  honors  in  the  department  to  be  placed  upon  the 
permanent  record  and  the  commencement  program.  In  the  event  that  the 
study  is  not  completed  successfully,  the  student  shall  be  reregistered  in 
Studies  and  given  a  final  grade  for  the  course. 

EXTRA-MUHAL  StXJDIES 

Full  college  credit  will  be  allowed  for  satisfactory  completion  of  aca- 
demic work  in  appro\ed  studies  programs  at  other  institutions.  Such  pro- 
grams may  be  entered  into  for  one  semester  or  one  )'ear.  Among  such 
approved  programs  are  the  following: 

WASHINGTON  SEMESTER.  Upon  recommendation  of  the  faculty  of 
die  Department  of  Political  Science,  students  may  be  permitted  to  attend 
the  American  University,  Washington,  D.  C,  for  a  period  of  one  full 
semester.  The  Washington  Semester  program  is  intended  to  provide  a 
firsthand  acquaintance  with  various  aspects  of  the  nation's  capital,  as  well 
as  an  academic  experience  equivalent  to  the  normal  four  unit  courses.  This 
program  is  open  to  selected  students  who  luue  special  interests  in  Political 
Science,  Law  and  American  Go\'ernment.  Ordinarily,  only  junior  students 
are  eligible. 

UNITED  NATIONS  SEMESTER.  Upon  recommendation  of  the 
faculty  of  the  Departments  of  History,  International  Relations,  or  Political 
Science,  students  ma\'  be  permitted  to  attend  Drew  Uni\'ersit\',  Madison, 
New  Jersey,  for  a  period  of  one  full  semester.  The  United  Nations  Semester 
is  intended  to  provide  a  firsthand  acquaintance  with  the  United  Nations, 
New  York  City,  as  well  as  an  academic  experience  equi\'alent  to  the  normal 
four  unit  courses.  This  program  is  open  to  selected  students  who  have 
special  interests  in  \\'orld  History,  International  Relations,  Law,  and  Poli- 
tics.   Ordinarily,  only  junior  students  are  eligible. 

JUNIOR  YEAR  ABROAD.  Under  the  au.spices  of  approved  uni\ersities 
or  agencies,  a  student  may  be  pri\ileged  to  spend  one  or  two  semesters 
of  his  junior  year  in  a  foreign  universit\'.  The  program  has  seemed  to  be 
especially  attracti\'e  to  students  majoring  in  foreign  languages  but  it  is 
entirely  possible  for  other  students  to  participate.  A  file  on  opportunities 
within  the  Junior  Year  Abroad  program  is  a\ailable  in  the  Office  of  the 
Dean  of  the  College  who  serves  as  advisor  to  the  program. 


Curricula 


PURPOSES  OF  THE  CURRICULA 

Courses  of  study  in  Lycoming  College  are  designed  to  fulfill  tvvo 
specific  but  interrelated  purposes.  The  first  is  to  acquaint  the  student  with 
the  liberal  arts  heritage  of  human  civilization  and  the  American  nation,  and 
the  second  is  to  provide  him  an  opportunity  to  explore  from  an  elementary 
to  an  advanced  level  various  fields  that  may  fit  him  for  a  life's  vocation  or 
direct  him  toward  professional  or  graduate  schools. 

The  curricula  are  organized  so  that  the  basic  purposes  may  be  fulfilled 
simultaneously  within  the  normal  32  unit  courses  (eight  semesters  of  college 
work ) . 

AMERICAN  CIVILIZATION  MAJOR 

Recognizing  the  rich  intellectual  heritage  associated  with  the  founding 
and  subsequent  development  of  the  American  nation,  the  Departments  of 
English  and  History  in  Lycoming  College  have  established  a  combined 
English-History  curriculum  which  focuses  attention  upon  American  civiliza- 
tion. Here  die  uniqueness  of  American  democracy,  cradled  and  nurtured 
on  diis  continent,  is  stressed  throughout.  In  order  to  achiexe  the  deepest 
insight  into  the  American  scene,  both  historical  and  contemporary,  the 
curriculum  includes,  in  addition  to  those  freshman  and  sophomore  history 
and  English  requirements,  eight  unit  courses  in  English  and  History. 
Students  desiring  a  thorough  background  in  American  civilization  in  prep- 
aration for  graduate  work,  the  Christian  ministry,  ci\il  or  foreign  ser\ice  or 
teaching  will  find  this  a  most  attractive  and  exciting  curriculum. 

PREPARATION  FOR  DENTAL  SCHOOL 

At  least  three  years  of  pre-dental  study  are  suggested  before  entry  into 
a  college  of  dentistry.  Howe\er,  many  students  prefer  to  defer  their  matric- 
ulation in  a  dental  college  until  they  have  earned  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree. 
The  pre-dental  curriculum  is  organized  around  the  basic  courses  in  biology, 
chemistry  and  physics.  Electing  a  major  in  one  of  the  natural  sciences  is 
the  usual  procedure.  The  student  should  consult  the  catalogue  of  the  college 
of  dentistry  to  which  he  expects  to  apply  so  that  all  courses  specifically 

29 


30  Lycoming  College  Bulletin 

required  by  that  college  of  dentistry  may  be  included  in  his  program  at 
Lycoming  College.  The  modern  practitioner  of  dentistry  is  not  just  a  dentist. 
He  is  a  human  being  dealing  with  other  human  personalities  and  as  such 
must  be  conversant  in  a  great  variety  of  human  experiences.  For  this  reason, 
the  pre-dental  curriculum  will  be  augmented  with  courses  from  many 
areas  of  academic  work.  In  addition  to  the  science  courses,  therefore,  the 
pre-dental  student  will  include  in  his  curriculum  courses  from  the  fine  arts, 
humanities  and  social  sciences,  as  well  as  a  foreign  language. 

COOPERATIVE  CURRICULUM  IN  ENGINEERING 

Consistent  with  increased  attention  being  gixen  nationally  to  engineer- 
ing education,  Lycoming  College  offers  a  cooperative  curriculum  combining 
the  manifold  advantages  of  a  small  liberal  arts  college  with  the  training  to 
be  secured  at  an  engineering  school.  By  arrangement  with  Bucknell  Univer- 
sity and  The  Pennsylvania  State  University,  the  College  offers  a  five-year 
program  in  which  the  first  three  years  are  spent  at  Lycoming  and  the  final 
two  at  the  engineering  school.  Upon  completion  of  the  first  year  at  the 
engineering  school,  the  student's  record  will  be  sent  to  Lycoming  College. 
If  the  work  is  satisfactory,  Lycoming  College  will  award  the  Bachelor 
of  Arts  degree.  Upon  the  completion  of  the  five-year  program  of  studies,  a 
Bachelor  of  Science  in  Engineering  is  awarded  by  the  engineering  school. 
Combined  programs  offer  an  opportunity  for  completion  of  studies  in  the 
following  areas:  Bucknell  University:  chemical,  civil,  electrical,  or  mechani- 
cal engineering;  The  Pennsylvania  State  University:  aeronautical,  civil, 
electrical,  industrial,  mechanical  or  sanitary  engineering. 

Prescribed  work  at  Lycoming  includes,  in  addition  to  the  degree 
requirements  outlined  above,  courses  in  chemistry,  mathematics  and  physics. 
Because  the  demands  of  the  engineering  curricula  may  differ  somewhat,  a 
program  of  studies  at  Lycoming  College  will  be  designed  for  each  student 
when  his  plans  as  to  type  of  engineering  program  preferred  have  been  finally 
fixed.  The  Director  of  the  Division  of  Natural  Science  or  a  member  of  the 
teaching  staff  in  the  physical  sciences  will  aid  each  cooperative  engineering 
student  in  planning  his  program. 

COOPERATIVE  CURRICULUM  IN  FORESTRY 

Lycoming  College  offers  a  program  for  forestry  students  which  com- 
bines a  strong  liberal  arts  and  science  background  with  professional  train- 
ing in  forestry  at  the  Duke  School  of  Forestry,  Duke  University,  Durham, 
North  Carolina. 


Curricula  31 

The  program  as  established  is  of  five  years'  duration.  A  student  electing 
to  pursue  this  program  of  study  will  spend  three  years  at  Lycoming  where 
he  will  meet  the  liberal  arts  degree  requirements,  including  such  subjects  as 
English,  a  foreign  language,  biology,  chemistry,  physics,  mathematics  and 
economics. 

Upon  satisfactory  completion  of  these  three  years'  work  at  Lycoming 
College,  the  student  will  apply  for  admission  to  the  Duke  School  of  Forestry 
for  one  summer  and  t\vo  years  of  training  in  forestry.  At  the  end  of  his  first 
year  at  Duke,  his  record  will  be  sent  to  Lycoming  College.  If  the  work  is 
satisfactory  for  this  fourth  year  in  college,  Lycoming  will  award  the  Bach- 
elor of  Arts  degree.  Upon  the  satisfactory  completion  of  the  second  year  in 
forestry  school,  the  professional  degree.  Master  of  Forestry,  will  be  awarded 
by  Duke  University. 

PREPARATION  FOR  LAW  SCHOOL 

Many  colleges  of  law  require  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  for  admission. 
The  four-year  degree  program  in  pre-law  at  Lycoming  College  provides  a 
background  for  the  prospective  student  of  law.  Requirements  include 
courses  in  political  science  and  history,  but  also  specified  is  a  wide  range  of 
subject  matter  designed  to  acquaint  the  student  with  the  vast  scope  of 
human  experience.  Students  may  e.xpect  to  major  in  economics,  history, 
political  science,  or  related  fields  as  they  prepare  for  matriculation  in  law 
school.  Individual  programs  are  tailored  to  fit  the  student's  needs  as  well  as 
to  meet  the  specific  requirements  of  the  law  school  to  which  he  applies  for 
admission. 

PREPARATION  FOR  MEDICAL  COLLEGE 

This  curriculum  is  organized  around  a  solid  foundation  of  the  basic 
courses  in  biology,  chemistry  and  physics.  Fre-medical  students  usually 
major  in  one  of  the  natural  sciences.  The  student  should  be  aware  of  the 
specific  pre-medical  course  requirements  demanded  by  the  medical  college 
to  which  he  will  apply  so  that  all  such  requirements  can  be  fitted  properly 
into  his  curriculum  at  Lycoming  College.  Consistent  with  suggestions  of  the 
medical  colleges,  a  vdde  range  of  subject  matter  from  the  humanities,  social 
sciences  and  fine  arts  is  also  to  be  included  in  the  curriculum.  Some  stu- 
dents may  matriculate  in  a  college  of  medicine  after  three  years  of  pre- 
medical  work,  but  the  more  normal  procedure  is  to  elect  four  years  of 
pre-medical  study  and  enter  the  medical  college  with  a  Bachelor  of  Arts 
degree.

PREPARATION  FOR  THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARY 

(Christian  Ministry) 

Young  men  and  women  called  to  tlie  Christian  ministry  or  related  voca- 
tions will  find  the  pre-ministerial  curriculum  at  Lycoming  College  an  excit- 
ing and  challenging  opportimity.  Basic  courses  specified  by  the  American 
Association  of  Theological  Schools  are  virtually  identical  with  the  program 
of  courses  required  for  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  at  Lycoming  College.  Such 
courses  offer  a  wide  range  of  subject  matter  presenting  many  opportunities 
for  the  eager  pre-ministerial  student  to  acquaint  himself  with  the  broad 
scope  of  human  experience.  Preparation  for  seminary  includes  earning  a 
Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  with  a  major  in  one  of  a  variety  of  fields  such  as 
religion,  English,  history,  philosophy  and  American  civilization.  So  that 
every  student  may  have  a  curriculum  designed  to  fit  his  individual  needs,  the 
offerings  in  the  junior  and  senior  year  are  largely  elective.  However,  the 
choice  of  electives  will  depend  upon  the  specific  requirements  of  the  theo- 
logical school  in  which  the  student  expects  to  matriculate. 

CURRICULUM  IN  RELIGION  AND 
RELIGIOUS  EDUCATION 

Any  student  desiring  extensive  study  in  Biblical  history  and  literature, 
the  historical  development  of  Christianit>',  and  Christian  doctrine,  may  major 
in  religion.  A  qualified  student  planning  to  enter  the  vocation  of  religious 
education  should,  besides  majoring  in  religion,  elect  five  or  six  unit  courses  in 
prescribed  psychology,  education,  sociology,  and  church  music  courses.  This 
program  of  study,  completely  within  the  liberal  arts  curriculum,  is  to 
qualify  graduates  for  work  as  Educational  Assistants,  or  after  graduate 
study  in  a  theological  seminary,  as  Directors  of  Christian  Education.  Inter- 
ested or  prospective  students  are  invited  to  contact  Mr.  Neufer  of  the  De- 
partment of  Religion  for  further  information  concerning  the  opportunities, 
responsibilities  and  requirements  of  these  and  other  church  vocations. 

TEACHER  EDUCATION 

Lycoming  College  trains  teachers  for  both  elementary  and  secondary 
education.  The  program  is  clearly  identified  with  the  liberal  arts  nature  of 
the  College,  and  hence,  no  candidate  for  the  profession  of  teaching  is  con- 
sidered apart  from  the  total  liberal  arts  objective.  Teacher  education  candi- 
dates meet  all  general  course  requirements  of  the  College  including  a  major 
in  a  subject  matter  field.

Curricula  35 

THE  BUSINESS  ADMINISTRATION  CURRICULUM 

Lycoming  College  offers  course  work  in  the  field  of  business  administra- 
tion particularly  designed  for  training  prospective  business  leaders.  The 
three  areas  of  specialization  are  business  administration,  accounting,  and 
economics.  Business  is  a  highly  diversified  occupation;  therefore  the  cur- 
riculum is  not  designed  to  be  vocational  or  narrowly  pre-professional.  The 
purposes  of  the  business  administration  curriculum  are  to  train  and  to  equip 
the  minds  of  men  and  women  to  recognize  and  to  solve  complex  problems  fac- 
ing business  e.xecuti\'es,  to  develop  an  appreciation  for  rigorous  analysis,  to 
practice  the  arts  of  verbal  and  written  communication,  and  to  expose  the 
developing  mind  to  as  wide  as  possible  a  range  of  course  work  represented 
by  the  traditional  liberal  arts  curriculum,  to  the  end  that  a  student  becomes 
truly  well  educated.  Considerable  flexibility  is  permissible  within  the  cur- 
riculum and  the  student  is  encouraged  to  pursue  course  work  most  reward- 
ing to  him.  Three  years  of  high  school  mathematics  are  recommended  for 
preparation.   For  specific  requirements,  refer  to  indi\'idual  course  areas. 


MEDICAL  TECHNOLOGY 

This  curriculum  is  organized  around  an  academic  background  of  basic 
science  courses  in  addition  to  those  liberal  arts  courses  listed  as  requirements 
for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree.  Three  unit  courses  in  biology  are  required 
as  well  as  one  of  mathematics.  In  chemistry,  General  Chemistry  and 
Quantitative  Analysis  are  specified.  Three  or  four  years  are  spent  in  obtain- 
ing this  academic  background;  the  final  year  is  spent  in  the  medical  labora- 
tories of  an  approved  hospital.  This  will  consist  of  an  internship  of  a  full 
calendar  year  at  a  hospital  accredited  in  the  Registry  of  Medical  Tech- 
nologists of  the  American  Society  of  Clinical  Pathologists.  The  College  will 
give  credit  for  the  year  when  it  is  informed  that  the  student  has  successfully 
passed  the  examinations  given  by  the  Registry  of  Medical  Technologists  of 
the  American  Society  of  Clinical  Pathologists.  An  official  transcript  of 
studies  completed  at  the  hospital  must  also  be  submitted  by  the  candidate. 


FINANCIAL 
INFORMATION 


Expenses 


GENERAL  EXPENSES 

In  considering  the  expenses  of  college,  it  is  well  to  bear  in  mind  that 
no  student  actually  pays  the  full  cost  of  his  education.  State  colleges  are 
enabled  to  keep  the  cost  of  tuition  within  reasonable  limits  by  grants  from 
die  public  treasury;  independent  colleges  achieve  this  by  voluntary  contri- 
butions supplemented  by  income  from  their  inxested  endowment  funds.  At 
Lycoming  College,  the  tuition  fee  which  each  student  pays  represents  only 
a  portion  of  the  total  instruction  cost.  Tuition  is  kept  at  the  lowest  possible 
le\el  consistent  with  adequate  facilities  and  competent  instruction. 

Tuition  at  Lycoming  is  $600  per  semester,  plus  certain  fees  which  are 
listed  on  the  following  pages.  The  room  expense  for  boarding  students 
amounts  to  $225.00  per  semester  except  for  men  living  in  the  Fraternity 
Residence  who  are  assessed  an  additional  $25.00.  Board  is  $225.00  per 
semester  (die  academic  year  comprises  two  semesters  of  approximately 
sixteen  weeks  each ) .  If,  for  justifiable  reason,  it  is  impossible  for  a  student 
to  eat  in  the  College  Dining  Room,  permission  may  be  given  the  student  to 
make  other  arrangements  for  meals.  Howe\er,  in  the  event  such  permission 
is  granted,  the  room  cost  will  be  50"  higher  than  die  above  rates.  If  a 
student  requests  the  use  of  a  double  room  as  a  single  room  and  the  room 
is  a\  ailable,  he  will  be  charged  50%  more  than  regular  rates. 

The  tuidon  charged  covers  the  regular  or  prescribed  course  of  study 
which  nomially  comprises  four  subjects.  Additional  detailed  information 
will  be  furnished  by  the  Treasurer's  Office  upon  request. 


APPLICATION  FEE  AND  DEPOSIT 

All  students  applying  for  admission  are  required  to  send  an  application 
fee  of  $15.00  with  the  application.  This  charge  is  to  partially  defray  the 
costs  of  processing  the  application,  maintaining  academic  records  and  is 
non-refundable. 

After  a  student  is  notified  that  he  has  been  accepted  for  admission  by 
The  College,  he  is  required  to  make  a  deposit  of  $50.00.  This  deposit  is 
evidence  of  the  applicant's  good  intention  to  matriculate  and  is  applicable

to  the  general  charges  of  the  semester,  and  is  not  an  extra  fee.  This  deposit 
is  not  refundable. 

All  returning  students  are  required  to  pay  a  deposit  of  $50.00  on  or 
before  April  15  to  reserve  their  place  in  the  student  body.  This  deposit  is 
credited  to  the  student's  account,  but  is  not  refundable. 

BOOKS  AND  SUPPLIES 

A  modern  book  and  supply  store  is  conxeniently  located  in  the  Student 
Activities  Building.  Books  and  supplies  are  purchased  by  the  individual 
student.  The  estimated  cost  is  appro.ximately  $75.00  per  year,  but  will  vary 
somewhat  in  accordance  with  tlie  course  of  study  which  the  student  is 
pursuing.  The  bookstore  is  open  registration  day  and  daih'  thereafter.

ule of  payments  as  listed,  arrangements  may  be  made  with  the  College

concerning  partial  payments  may  be  obtained  from  the  Treasurer  or  Direc- 
tor of  Admissions. 

WITHDRAWALS  AND  REFUNDS 

The  date  on  which  die  Dean  of  the  College  approves  the  student's 
withdrawal  sheet  is  considered  the  official  date  of  withdrawal.  In  the  case 
of  minors,  die  approval  of  the  parent  or  guardian  is  required  before  the 
withdrawal  is  approved  and  before  any  refund  is  made. 

Room  rentals  have  been  fixed  on  a  semester  basis.  Consequently,  stu- 
dents leax'ing  College  prior  to  die  ending  of  a  semester  will  not  be  entitled 
to  any  refund  of  room  rent.  Board  will  be  pro-rated  by  the  week  over  the 
period  of  attendance. 

Refund  of  tuition  will  be  made  to  students  who  withdraw  voluntarily 
from  The  College  while  in  good  standing  and  is  fixed  on  the  following  basis: 
Students  lea\'ing  during  the  first  four-week  period  are  charged  307c;  during 
the  second  four  weeks  60%;  during  the  third  four  weeks,  90%;  after  twelve 
weeks,  full  charge. 

Dropping  a  unit  course  from  the  original  schedule  after  the  first  week  of 
eidier  semester  will  not  justify  any  claim  for  refund  of  tuition  charges. 
Written  permission  to  drop  the  unit  course  must  be  obtained  from  the  Dean's 
Office.  No  refund  will  be  made  to  those  students  who  are  asked  to  with- 
draw from  The  College.

forms:   (1)  Scholarships,  (2)  Grants-in-aid,  (3)  Loans,  (4)  Workships.

42  Lycoming  College  Bulletin 

Grants-In-Aid  are  awarded  annually  to  students  on  the  basis  of  a  dem- 
onstrated need.  The  size  of  the  grant  is  determined  by  need  and  by  the

society. 

Ministerial  Grants-In-Aid:  Financial  assistance  is  available  through 
grants  from  The  Methodist  Church  to  children  of  ministers  and  ministerial

CAMPUS  LIFE 


Religious  Life 


The  opportunity  to  develop  and  practice  the  Christian  philosophy  of 
Hfe  is  accomphshed: 

through  the  Director  of  Religious  Activities,  who  is  a  member  of  the 
Faculty  with  teaching  responsibilities.  He  is  responsible  for  co-ordinat- 
ing the  religious  activities  of  the  College  and  provides  counseling  in  the 
area  of  religion  to  students  who  request  his  assistance.  He  serves  as 
Executive  Secretary  to  tlie  Religious  Life  Council. 

through  the  Religious  Life  Council,  the  student  organization  which 
co-ordinates  religious  groups  on  the  campus.. It  is  composed  of  repre- 
sentatives from  all  student  religious  organizations,  Student  Govern- 
ment, Faculty,  Administration,  and  the  local  clergy.  Early  in  the  second 
semester  the  Council  sponsors  a  week  of  religious  emphasis.  Students 
and  faculty  discuss  together  common  problems  in  some  aspect  of  re- 
ligious experience  with  the  objective  of  stimulating  interest  throughout 
the  campus  community. 

through  religious  organizations  which  include  the  Methodist  Student 
Movement  (meeting  weekly  at  the  College  Church,  Pine  Street  Meth- 
odist Church,  located  at  the  intersection  of  Pine  Street  and  Edwin 
Street)  and  the  John  Wesley  Club.  Other  denominational  groups 
include  the  Canterbury  Club  ( Episcopal ) ,  die  Presbyterian  Fellowship, 
the  Lutheran  Student  Association,  the  Roger  Wilhams  Club  (Baptist), 
and  the  United  Campus  Christian  Fellowship  (Disciples,  E.  U.  B.,  and 
Reformed).  Each  of  these  meets  regularly  to  provide  members  of  its 
faith  with  the  opportunity  to  participate  in  activities  of  common 
interest. 


Campus  Life 


Lycoming  College  accepts  the  responsibility  of  making  every  situation 
in  which  learning  occurs  constructive  and  positive.  The  College  believes 
that  learning  is  a  continuous  process  that  takes  place  not  only  in  the  class- 
room, but  also  in  every  college  activity. 


46 


Religious  Life  47 

The  College  assumes  its  responsibility  in  this  area  by  directing  the 
extra-curricular  educational  experiences  of  the  students  in  such  a  way  that 
these  activities  contribute  to  the  achievement  of  the  objectives  of  The  Col- 
lege, by  complementing  the  academic  life  of  the  campus. 

The  College  considers  one  of  its  responsibilities  to  be  the  encouragement 
of  as  many  difiFerent  activities  as  are  necessary  to  provide  all  students  with 
the  opportunity  to  participate  constructively  in  this  area  of  student  life. 
Departmental  clubs;  athletics,  both  intercollegiate  and  intramural;  varied 
interest  groups  such  as  denominational  clubs,  the  choir,  the  band,  etc.; 
social  organizations;  social  activities;  self-governing  groups;  and  many 
informal  associations  are  equally  important  in  a  well  integrated  program  of 
student  activities. 

Recognizing  the  need  for  skilled  leadership  in  our  world.  The  College 
aims  to  utilize  students  in  as  many  of  the  leadership  positions  as  possible. 
In  doing  so,  it  will  give  students  the  opportunity  to  accept  greater  responsi- 
bilities, and  to  learn  as  they  participate. 

STUDENT  GOVERNMENT 

Self-government  by  students  in  certain  areas  of  campus  life  is  an 
objective  achieved  through  the  Student  Government  Association  of  Lycom- 
ing College.  The  Student  Council  is  the  legislative  body  of  the  Association. 
The  Officers  of  the  Student  Government  Association  are  elected  from  the 
entire  student  body.  Members  of  Student  Council  are  elected  by  classes  and 
certain  other  organizations. 

The  Student  Council  has  been  delegated  authority  for  certain  areas  of 
campus  life.  The  establishment  of  parking  regulations  and  their  enforce- 
ment is  the  responsibility  of  Student  Government.  Students  are  employed 
by  Student  Council  to  serve  as  enforcement  officers.  All  fines  collected  for

The  Artist  and  Lecture  Series  presents  several  performances  of  the  best 
obtainable  talent  in  music,  drama,  the  dance,  and  the  lecture.  The  Series  is 
presented  to  provide  wider  cultural  experiences  than  might  normally  be 
available  to  the  student.  Although  the  Series  is  entertaining,  its  prime 
objective  is  to  acquaint  the  student  with  the  arts  and  the  humanities  as  they 
are  performed  on  a  professional  level.

they  have  served  at  least  a  year  in  the  apprentice  program.  Its  serv'ices  to 
the  campus  include  poster  making,  publicity,  and  a  travel  board.  The

organizations,  it  provides  two  nights  of  the  best  college  student  entertain- 
ment available  anywhere  in  the  nation.  Rapidly  growing  in  stature,  groups

ORIENTATION 

The  orientation  program  at  Lycoming  College  is  designed  to  help  the 
student  entering  college  for  the  first  time  to  start  this  new  adventure  under 
the  most  favorable  circumstances.  An  entirely  new  concept  of  courses, 
class  scheduling,  and  methods  of  instruction  must  be  assimilated.  Adjust- 
ment to  this  new  experience  is  important. 

In  order  to  prepare  for  the  beginning  of  this  experience,  Lycoming 
schedules  seven  orientation  sessions  each  lasting  two  and  one  half  days 
during  the  summer.  Each  new  student  is  required  to  attend  one  of  these 
sessions  accompanied  by  at  least  one  parent. 

The  summer  program  makes  it  possible  to  schedule  ample  time  for 
academic  advisement,  placement  testing,  library  orientation,  and  registration. 
The  College  is  able  to  work  more  satisfactorily  with  new  students  in  planning 
programs  of  study  tailored  to  each  student's  vocational  and  academic  in- 
terests. Each  new  student  completes  all  preliminaries,  including  registration, 
during  the  summer  orientation  period.  Textbooks  are  available  for  purchase 
and  perusal  prior  to  the  opening  of  classes  in  the  Fall. 

Information  regarding  the  dates  of  orientation  sessions,  a  typical  sched- 
ule and  a  pre-registration  form  are  mailed  to  each  new  student  admitted  to 
Lycoming  College.

INTERCOLLEGIATE  SPORTS

encourages  wide  participation  by  its  students.  It  is  a  member  of  the 
National  Collegiate  Athletic  Association,  the  Eastern  Collegiate  Athletic 
Association,  and  the  Northern  Division  of  the  Middle  Atlantic  Confer-

COUNSELING  PROGRAM 

An  advantage  of  a  small  college  is  the  rich  experience  gained  by  the 
close  association  of  students  and  facult\'.  In  addition  to  this  valuable  per- 
sonal relationship,  which  affords  students  the  opportimity  to  discuss  various 
problems  with  their  instructors,  Lycoming  has  a  well-rounded  counseling 
program  for  its  students.  Under  the  direction  of  the  Dean  of  the  College, 
this  program  includes  areas  as  represented  by  the  Dean  of  Students,  the 
Dean  of  Women,  and  faculty  advisers. 

The  program  begins  with  a  personal  interview  between  the  Director 
of  Admissions  and  the  candidate  for  admission.  These  interviews  are  suf- 
ficient in  length  to  obtain  a  picture  of  the  student,  his  background,  and  his 
plans  for  the  future.  When  the  student  enters  the  College  as  a  freshman, 
he  is  assigned  to  a  faculty  adviser.  The  new  student  will  meet  with  this 
adviser  regularly  during  the  year.  The  freshman  will  find  his  adviser  eager 
to  guide  and  assist  in  the  many  problems  that  confront  the  new  college

purposes  and  to  assist  in  acK  isenient.  These  tests  will  be  offered  on  a 
referral  basis  to  those  students  for  whom  the  need  is  ob\'ious.  Additional 
coiniseling  is  a\'ailable  to  tlie  student  in  the  area  of  academic,  personal,  and 
emotional  adjustment. 

PLACEMENT  SERVICE 

The  Placement  Bureau  maintains  a  register  listing  the  abilities  and 
major  interests  of  students  and  recent  alumni.  Literature  from  businesses 
and  industrial  associations  is  kept  axailable.  Consultations  with  the  Place- 
ment Director  assist  students  toward  wise  selection  of  a  profession.  Inter- 
views are  then  scheduled  at  which  students  meet  and  confer  with  represen- 
tatives from  companies  in  which  the\'  are  interested.  L)'coming  graduates 
are  usually  placed  before  commencement. 

There  are  many  di\'ersified  businesses  in  Williamsport.  These  firms 
give  students  at  Lycoming  splendid  oi.portunities  for  \isits,  tours,  and  con- 
ferences. They  also  afford  the  student  body  a  variety  of  part-time  jobs 
during  each  college  session.  The  Placement  Bureau  serves  as  a  clearing-

the  college  community  is  inconsistent  with  the  aims  and  ideals  of  The 
College.

The  Alumni  Association 


The  Alumni  Association  of  Lycoming  College  has  a  living  membership 
of  over  five  thousand  men  and  women.  It  is  governed  by  an  Executive 
Board  of  five  officers  and  twenty-one  members  nominated  and  elected  by 
the  membership.  It  elects  annually  a  member  to  the  Board  of  Directors  of 
the  College  for  a  tliree-year  term.  The  Assistant  to  the  President  of  the 
College  directs  the  activities  of  the  Alumni  Office. 

The  Alumni  Association  of  Lycoming  College  has  two  objectives:  ( 1 )  to 
promote  the  interests  of  the  College,  and  (2)  to  foster  among  its  members 
loyalty  and  de\'0tion  to  their  alma  mater.  All  persons  who  have  successfully 
completed  one  year  of  study  at  Lycoming  College,  or  Williamsport  Dickinson 
Junior  College,  and  all  former  students  of  Williamsport  Dickinson  Seminary 
are  members  of  the  Association. 

The  Alumni  Office  is  located  in  room  208  on  the  second  floor  of  Old 
Main.  Arrangements  for  Homecoming,  Alumni  Day,  Class  Reunions,  Club 
meetings  and  similar  activities  are  coordinated  through  this  ofBce.  There 
are  active  Alumni  Clubs  in  Harrisburg,  Philadelphia,  Pittsburgh  and  State 
College,  Pennsylvania;  Northern  New  Jersey;  Rochester  and  Syracuse,  New 
York. 

Lycoming  College  holds  Class  A,  B,  and  C  memberships  in  the  Ameri- 
can Alumni  Council.  Through  its  Alumni  Fund,  the  Alumni  Office  is  closely 
associated  with  the  Development  Program  of  the  College. 

Acting  as  the  representatix-e  of  alumni  on  the  campus,  and  working  also 
with  undergraduates,  die  Alumni  Office  aids  in  keeping  alumni  informed 
and  interested  in  die  program,  growth  and  activties  of  the  College. 

Communications  to  the  Alumni  Association  should  be  addressed  to  the 
Alumni  Office.
