A University Education
As an institution of higher learning. IUP is a community of scholars of both
faculty and students, committed to discover, preserve, and impart truth in all
its forms. Our primary concern is with the intellectual, moral, cultural,
physical, social, and aesthetic development and maturation of our students.
To this end we are charged with providing a liberal education of both
general and specialized studies which will allow our students to liberate
themselves from narrow interests and prejudices, to broaden their
intellectual horizons by increased cultural perspective, to develop the ability
to think logically, critically, and creatively, and to communicate their
judgments clearly and forcefully. The curriculum involves a body of
knowledge about the universe and about people, their nature, behavior, and
values. It also provides an opportunity to gain specialized knowledge as a
preparation for graduate study and entry into professional life. Beyond this
breadth and depth of know ledge, the university recognizes that such an
education is only a beginning and hopes to stimulate its students to pursue
continuous development in the areas of human knowledge, to seek wisdom,
to challenge the mysteries of life and examine its ultimate meaning, and to
become useful members of society by embracing careers which will touch
the whole community.
Approved by the University Senate in May, 1979.
History of the University
IUP has witnessed a history rich in accomplishment. Since 1875. when it
served only 225 students in a single building, it has experienced continuous
growth, becoming Pennsylvania's fifth largest university. The current
enrollment is over 14,000. with students from thirty-six states and over fifty-
five countries.
The first building, named John Sutton Hall in honor of the first president of
the Board of Trustees, was opened for students on May 17. 1875.
In April. 1920, control and ownership of the school passed to the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In May, 1927, by authority of the General
Assembly, the State Normal School became a college, with the right to grant
degrees. The name was then changed to the State Teachers College at
Indiana. Pennsylvania. In 1959. the legislature approved a change of name
to Indiana State College; in the 1960s there followed a rapid growth in the
liberal arts program.
In December. 1965, Indiana was redesignated Indiana University of
Pennsylvania and given the authority to expand its curriculum and to
grant degrees at the master's level. At this time the first doctoral program
was initiated.
The following publications have all recognized IUP for its high academic
standards and competitive costs: Arco's Dollarwise Guide to American
Colleges: Barron's 300: Best Buys in College Education. The Best Buys in
College Education by Edw ard Fiske, education editor of the Yen Yoi k
Times: Changing Tones. Hon to Get an Ivy League Education at a State
University by Martin Nemko; Money magazine's Money Guide: Two
Hundred Most Selective Colleges: The Definitive Guide to America'.', First-
Choice Schools: and U.S. News and World Report.
Accreditation
IUP is a state-owned institution for higher education as a member of the
Slate System of Higher Education. It is an approved and fully accredited
member of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, the
National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, the American
Home Economics Association, the American Chemical Society, the
American Psychological Association, the National League for Nursing, the
American Society of Safety Engineers, the Committee on Allied Health
Education and Accreditation, the National Association of Schools of Music,
the National Association of School Psychologists, the National Accrediting
Agency for Clinical Sciences, and the Council on Hotel. Restaurant, and
Institutional Education.
Buildings and Grounds
The main campus, originally consisting of twelve acres and one building, is
now composed of a total of 204 acres on which are located seventy-two
major buildings owned by the state and seven athletic fields. Two of the
buildings, Breezedale and John Sutton Hall, have been entered in the
National Register of Historic Places. The Co-op Recreational Park, located a
few miles from the campus, consists of 280 acres and several buildings
including a lodge and ski hut. The wooded hillsides offer opportunities for
nature study and such outdoor recreational activities as hiking, skiing, and
exercise trails.
Institute for Research and Community Service
In September, 1989. the Institute for Research and Community Service was
created w ithin the Research Division of the Graduate School to replace the
Center for Community Affairs and the Institute for Applied Research and
Public Policy Studies.
The Institute for Research and Community Service serves as the primary
outreach office of the university to link community effort and need with the
diverse resources of the university and to encourage research activities
among the faculty. Major areas of responsibility include: 1 ) To expand
economic development and public service initiatives within the university's
research mission; 2) To provide a coordinating function for all IUP
research centers; and 3) To provide leadership and support for the Applied
Research Lab.
A wide variety of services is offered through outreach efforts to community
leaders in government, business, education, human service, and health care
agencies and organizations. Typical services include policy analysis for local
governments, needs assessments, survey research, computer projects,
software development, digital mapping, land use and site studies, and
archaeological services including Phase I and II surveys. Through affiliation
with the Pennsylvania State Data Center, a variety of specialized census and
economic data reports are developed upon request.
Staff of the institute includes a director, fiscal assistant, graduate assistant,
several undergraduate students, and numerous faculty associates.
Information Systems and Communications Center
The Information Systems and Communications Center (ISCC). established
in 1963. is located on the ground floor of Stright Hall. The ISCC provides
6 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
computational support for undergraduate and graduate courses, faculty and
student research, and the administrative requirements of the university.
The primary computing capacity of the center is provided by a DEC
VAXcluster running VMS which supports both timesharing and batch
processing services. A campus network provides 9600 baud terminal access,
with ethernet connectivity available in selected locations. IUP is connected
to both the BITNET and Internet wide area networks.
Student access to computing is provided, for the most part, through the
public computing laboratories. The primary public labs are strategically
placed around campus to maximize their availability and impact. Several
departments maintain computing facilities that are of a focused nature and
which are intended to support specific programs.
Through implementation of its strategic computing plan, which is part of the
university long-range planning process, the university is committed to
providing the level of computing and information technology necessary for
a modem institution of higher education. Guidance in this area is provided
from both an Academic and Administrative Computing Advisory
Committee. Undergraduate and Graduate students are represented on the
Academic Computing Advisory Committee.
Library and Media Services
Patrick J. Stapleton. Jr.. Library, the central library for IUP, was completed
and dedicated in 1981. It adjoins Rhodes R. Stabley Library, which results in
a combined structure of 156,000 square feet. The Cogswell Music Library,
the University School Library, and the branch campus libraries at Armstrong
Center in Kittanning and in Punxsutawney are the other components of the
IUP library system. Nineteen library faculty members, twenty-two support
and technical staff members, and over two hundred students are employed in
the Libraries and Media Resources Division of the university. The book
collection contains in excess of 700.000 volumes; there are 4,500 periodical
subscriptions, 1.7 million items of microforms, over 100,000 bound
periodicals, and in excess of 24,000 volumes of governmental publications.
(IUP is a designated Select Depository for federal and state publications.)
The libraries' media holdings in all formats are extensive. Resources are
supplemented through membership in OCLC for interlibrary loan, the
Health Sciences Consortium (North Carolina), and the Laurel Highlands
Consortium and associate membership in the Center for Research Libraries.
The central library is open ninety-three hours a week during regular terms.
The Cogswell Music Library, located on the top floor of Cogswell Hall,
contains approximately 6,000 books, 70,000 scores, and 10,000 recordings.
Holdings of monumental editions are substantial. Sound recordings circulate
only to faculty, but listening stations are available for use by all patrons. The
University School Library's 6,500 volumes support the curriculum of grades
K-6 at the University School. The Armstrong County campus library has
more than 22.000 volumes, and the recently renovated Punxsutawney library
contains more than 13,000 books as well as 150 periodicals and recordings
of music, poetry, and drama.
University Senate
Purpose
The purpose of the University Senate is to provide a formal means through
which the student body, faculty, and administration, working as a unified
group, shall have a representative share in the governance of the university.
Nothing relating to the organization and administration of the University
Senate shall be construed so as to limit the authority of the Council of
Trustees or the president of the university with respect to the administration
of the university as prescribed by law.
Composition and Elective Procedures
The University Senate shall consist of a number of faculty double the
number of departments of the university, an administrative segment one-
third the size of the faculty segment, and a student segment one-half the size
of the faculty segment. The Senate shall also include one Alumni
Association representative and four representatives from staff. Faculty,
administrative, and staff members must hold full-time contracts at the time
of election or appointment, and students must be full-time and in good
standing. "Student" refers to both the undergraduate and graduate student
bodies. The student segment shall consist often times as many
undergraduate students as graduate students, each delegation to be elected
by its representative student body. Undergraduate students shall be elected
under the auspices of the recognized student association (as defined by
Pennsylvania state Act 1982-188) and graduate students through elections
arranged by their comparable body. In both cases, the officiating body shall
call for and accept voluntary nominations for election to the Senate. Student
members of the University Senate serve on most of the Senate committees.
The Foundation for IUP
The Foundation for IUP is a nonprofit agency established in 1967 to develop
and maintain private support for IUP. It is governed by a twenty-four-
member Board of Directors. The offices are located on campus in John
Sutton Hall.
Funds raised through contributions from alumni, friends, faculty and staff,
corporations, and foundations are used to support scholarships, academic
and athletic enrichment, departmental programs, and other priority needs of
the university. In 1993-94 contributions received totaled over $6 million,
and the foundation's endowments are valued at $9 million.
Interim University Policy on Sexual Harassment
IUP affirms that sexual harassment is a violation of basic human rights,
inconsistent with the purpose and principles of an academic community.
Sexual harassment of students and employees is unacceptable conduct
and will not be tolerated.
Any university community member who engages in sexual harassment is
subject to the disciplinary process appropriate to his/her classification as an
employee or student.
The right to confidentiality of all parties involved in a sexual harassment
complaint shall be strictly adhered to insofar as it does not interfere with the
university's legal obligation to investigate allegations of misconduct and to
take appropriate corrective action.
IUP prohibits retaliatory action against individuals filing either informal or
formal complaints of sexual harassment. Nothing contained in this policy
protects an individual who maliciously makes false accusations. While
seeking to protect those whose dignity might be compromised, it must be
emphasized that false accusations of sexual harassment will not be tolerated.
Definition: Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that is
reprehensible and unlawful. Title IX of the education amendments of 1972
prohibits sex discrimination in employment. Sexual harassment is defined as:
a. making unwelcome sexual advances
b. requesting sexual favors
c. verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature — which submission to such
conduct is made, either explicitly or implicitly, a term or condition of a
person's employment or education
d. verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature — which has the purpose or
effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's academic,
personal, or professional performance
e. verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature — which has the purpose or
effect of unreasonably creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive
educational, social, or work environment
f. basing employment or academic decisions upon a person's submission to
or rejection of verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature
Sexual harassment occurs in a variety of situations. Many of these situations
have two circumstances in common:
the inappropriate introduction of sexual activities into relationships of
unequal power
• an element of coercion — so that compliance with requests for sexual
favors becomes a criterion for granting employment or academic
benefits.
Sexual harassment may also involve relationships among equals. In these
cases repeated sexual advances or demeaning verbal behavior have a
harmful effect on one's ability to study, live, or work within the academic
community.
Questions regarding the Sexual Harassment Policy or complaint procedures
may be directed to the Director of Human Resources, G-30 Sutton Hall, IUP.
Policy approved by University Senate. May 1, 1990; pending final approval
by Council of Trustees.
The Branch Campuses — 7
The Branch Campuses
Robert H. Doerr, Director, Armstrong Branch
Norman T. Storm, Director, Punxsutawney
Branch
IUP operates two branch campuses, one in Punxsutawney, twenty-eight
miles north of the Indiana campus, and one in Kittanning, twenty-eight
miles west of the Indiana campus. The first branch campus was established
in 1962 in Punxsutawney. The following year the Armstrong campus in
Kittanning was opened. The Punxsutawney campus accommodates 200-225
students and the Armstrong campus accommodates 450-550 students.
Control of the branch campuses is directly vested with the IUP
administration and Council of Trustees. Advisory boards from the respective
areas identify local needs. Both branch campuses carry full accreditation as
integral parts of the undergraduate programs of IUP. This means that course
offered at the branch campuses are of the same quality as those offered at
the Indiana campus.
Programs of Study
The branch campuses of IUP offer basic liberal studies courses for most
majors in the various undergraduate colleges of the university. Students may
schedule a full program for the freshman year and many sophomore-level
courses. No student accepted at either of the branch campuses is eligible for
transfer to the Indiana campus until he/she has completed two semesters.
Faculty advisers and administrators at the branch campuses are available to
advise students on their instructional programs and the proper time for
continuing at the Indiana campus, whether it be after two, three, or
four semesters.
Business Associate Degree Program
The two-year Associate of Arts degree in Business is based upon a broad
liberal arts program as well as professional competencies needed in the field
nt business. The program is offered at the Armstrong campus and the
Punxsutawney campus. A student accepted for this program may
concentrate in computer and office information systems. Most of the credits
earned in the two-year program may apply toward a four-year degree
program in business.
Criminology Associate Degree Program
A two-year program in criminology is offered only at the Punxsutawney
branch campus and is not offered at the Indiana campus of IUP. The credits
earned in the two-year program will apply toward the four-year degree
program in criminology.
Admission
Any prospective student who wishes to attend either of the branch campuses
instead of the Indiana campus may apply for admission by requesting an
application from the Admissions Office or from the director of either branch
campus. Students admitted into an Associate of Arts Degree Program must
reapply for admission if they choose to pursue a bachelor's degree at IUP.
The same standards and requirements used for admission at the Indiana
campus are applied at both university branch campuses. The mailing
addresses for the respective branch campuses follow:
Punxsutawney Branch Campus
IUP
Punxsutawney, PA 15767
Armstrong County Branch Campus
IUP
Kittanning, PA 16201
Housing
The Punxsutawney branch campus has privately owned residence halls for
students living beyond commuting distance, while the Armstrong County
branch campus operates university-owned residence halls. Students are free
to choose their housing from all available sources, which include the
residence halls and private homes or apartments in the community. A list of
rooms and apartments is available in each campus director's office.
Food Service
Each branch campus has its own dining hall within the residence hall. Meals
are served seven days a week during the time the university is in session.
Residence hall students as well as students living in private homes and
apartments may make arrangements to take meals in the dining halls. The
dining service is operated by the same food service contractor as on the
Indiana campus.
Rules and Regulations Concerning Student Behavior
Students at the branch campuses are subject to the same rules and
regulations as students on the Indiana campus.
Fees
Branch campus students pay the same basic fees as Indiana campus students
except for the health fee.
Continuing Education
The School of Continuing Education plays a significant role in programming
Community-University Studies classes (noncredit), academic workshops,
and institutes in the Punxsutawney and Kittanning areas. The school is
also responsive to the needs of the local community through credit and
noncredit activities.
8 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
Admissions and Registration
Undergraduate Admissions Policy
Graduates of an accredited four-year high school or holders of a GED
equivalency diploma are qualified to apply for admission to IUP. Students
who have completed the junior year of high school may file an application
any time after July 1.
Requests for applications and catalogs should be addressed to
Office of Admissions
Indiana University of Pennsylvania
216 Pratt Hall
Indiana, PA 15705
The Admissions Committee, giving equal opportunity to all students, will
take the following criteria into consideration when reviewing each
application: SAT/ ACT scores, class rank, grades, guidance counselor
recommendations, faculty recommendations, extracurricular activities and
other pertinent information that would be helpful to the Admissions
Committee in making decisions. SAT/ACT scores are not required for
transfers, veterans, or applicants who have graduated from high school more
than five years before applying. However, high school and all previous
college transcripts are required.
Although the university does not require a specific number of high school
credits in particular subject areas, applicants are strongly urged to take the
usual college preparatory program in high school. Applicants should also
take any available high school courses in the field of their intended major.
Applicants should be aware that certain majors at IUP require completion of
a foreign language at the intermediate level in order to earn a bachelor "s
degree. However, the Admissions Committee does not require an applicant
to take a foreign language in high school for admission to these majors.
Applications are considered by the Admissions Committee on a rolling
basis. Under a rolling admissions policy, applications are reviewed as they
become complete. Decisions can range from automatic acceptance, to
request for additional information, to other alternatives, with a May 1
deadline for tuition deposits.
Academically qualified applicants to the departments of Art. Music, and
Theater will be admitted to the university by the Admissions Committee.
However, admission to the requested major will be subject to the acceptance
by the Department of Art after a portfolio review and by the Departments of
Music and Theater after an audition. Students will receive information
from the Art. Music and Theater departments concerning auditions and
portfolio reviews.
Freshman Applications
Applications for admission will be available after July 1 following the
student's junior year of high school.
All persons expecting to apply for freshman admission to IUP should plan
to take the SAT or ACT test during their junior and/or early part of their
senior year. The Admissions Committee recommends that students take the
tests more than once. The committee considers the highest scores from all
tests taken.
Arrangements to take the SAT or ACT tests can be made through the high
school principal or counselor, or by writing to the College Entrance
Examination Board. Box 592. Princeton. NJ 08540 or American College
Testing, P.O. Box 168. Iowa City. Iowa. 52243 for an information pamphlet
and test registration form.
In order for the test scores to be received by IUP, IUP must be designated on
the registration form as one of the universities to receive the scores.
The applicant should give the completed application form and the
nonrefundable $20 application fee payable to IUP to his/her high school
principal or counselor. The principal or counselor should mail the
application and complete packet of admissions materials to the IUP Office
of Admissions. 216 Pratt Hall. Indiana. PA 15705.
Early Admission
The Early Admissions Program permits students to enroll as a college
freshman after completing the junior year in high school. Student
applications for acceptance must originate with the student's high school
counselor and principal. Admission consideration will be given to those
applications which contain a statement indicating explicit approval by the
high school principal. Applicants are considered on an individual basis. The
university Admissions Committee will exercise the final judgment as to
university acceptance after a personal interview with the applicant. The
university strongly recommends prior summer school attendance by all
students admitted through the Early Admissions Program.
Processing the Application
1) The Admissions Committee reviews, with care and understanding, each
of the several thousand applications that are submitted each year.
2) Decisions on applications are made on a rolling basis.
3) Applicants who are admitted to IUP will be invited to attend an
orientation program on campus to receive general information and
discuss their academic and career plans with the college dean, faculty
representative of their respective major, and other advisers.
4) Attendance at the orientation and payment of the $30 orientation fee
signifies the applicant's interest but not commitment to attend IUP.
5) A $75 nonrefundable tuition deposit is due from all incoming students.
This advance deposit payment will be credited to the applicant's tuition.
Transfer Admission
A student who has been attending another institution of higher education
and wishes to transfer to IUP must submit an application, official transcripts
of all postsecondary educational work, and an official high school transcript.
All admissions decisions are made on a "rolling" basis by the Admissions
Committee. Under a rolling admissions policy, applications are reviewed as
they become complete. Decisions can range from automatic acceptance, to
request for additional information, to other alternatives. The application
deadline depends on the number of available vacancies in the transfer
program and the number of applications received.
Admissions and Registration
Transfer applications ( 12 or more postsecondary, college credits attempted)
arc reviewed on the basis of college coursework completed. Transfers arc
required to have al least a cumulative 2.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale
(C average) from all schools previously attended lor admission to most
programs. The teacher certification program requires a cumulative minimum
2.5 grade point average Irom all schools previously attended.
A nonrefundable registration fee of $30 is required of all accepted students.
Attendance at Transfer Registration Day in August is highly recommended.
If waiver Of attendance at summer registration is approved by the
Admissions Office, the student will schedule courses as available in late
registration the day before the start of classes
The evaluation of credits from other institutions of higher education is the
responsibility of the Office of Academic Information Systems and the
academic college dean who has jurisdiction over the student's desired major.
Normally, courses considered for transfer ate only those taken from
institutions which are accredited by the six regional accrediting agencies.
Each course is usually evaluated separately. The evaluation normally
includes a review of the description, semester hours, and grade of each
course along with the applicability of the course to the student's major at
1UP. However, only credits transfer, not grade-point average. It has been the
policy of the university that only courses with a "C" or higher grade will be
accepted, except for two-year associate degree graduates of state-supported
community colleges in Pennsylvania. No matter how many credits are
transferable, the student must satisfy all of the degree requirements falling
into the categories of ( 1 ) university requirements, (2) college requirements,
and (3) department requirements.
University requirements: Since all students are obliged to fulfill a basic
program in Liberal Studies consisting of 53-58 semester credit hours and
there is a reasonable degree of flexibility in the Liberal Studies
requirements, the transfer evaluator and the college deans will look to this
area first for applicable credits for transfer. Most introductory courses are
generally equivalent.
Residency requirements: The university requires that at least forty-five
credits, generally including the last thirty credits in a student's curriculum,
must be earned by enrollment in courses at IUP. It should also be noted that
for community college graduates a maximum of sixty credit hours is
transferable to this institution for the purpose of fulfilling a specific program
of study. Excess credits, if any. may be transferred but cannot be used for
fulfilling the minimum requirements for the degree.
Transfer students, to remain in good academic standing, must meet the same
quality-point average requirements as those specified for all other
undergraduate students. See section entitled "Criteria Governing
Continuance at IUP."
The university accepts credits associated with "D" grades only when they
are part of a completed Associate Degree earned at a publicly owned
community college in Pennsylvania. These "D" grades will be treated in the
same manner as those earned at IUP. This articulation policy was adopted by
the Board of State College and University Directors in 1973.
Part-Time Study (Nondegree)
Part-Time Studies Program — Undergraduate
Part-time undergraduate study is available through the School of Continuing
Education to any high school graduate, holder of a GED Equivalency
Diploma, or adult over twenty-five years of age. No SAT scores are
required. Note: A TOEFL Score is required as part of the application for an
individual whose native language is other than English. Those who are not
U.S. citizens must submit a notarized copy of their current visa and 1-94
card or alien resident card.
Applications are available from the Part-time Studies Program and must be
submitted with documentation directly to the School of Continuing
Education by August 15 for the fall semester and December 1 5 for the
spring semester. A $20 application fee is required. Applications submitted
after established dates are not guaranteed consideration.
Transfer students may also apply to the School of Continuing Education for
part-time study and must submit official transcripts for all previous college
work attempted. An overall 2.0 GPA is required.
A student in the Part-time Studies Program is limited to a semester
enrollment of no more than 1 1 credits and must apply for formal admission
to a degree program before 30 IUP credits have been earned. Applications
for degree candidacy must be filed by the midterm point of the fall or spring
semester preceding candidacy. Specific requirements for grade-point
average and IUP credit vary by degree program. The minimum credit
criteria to apply for consideration for degree candidacy are as follows:
High School Diploma or GED 15 IUP Credits 2.0 GPA
Veteran (DD-214 required) 9 IUP Credits 2.0 GPA
Transfer (with 12 or more credits) 9 IUP Credits 2.0 GPA
Transfer (with II or less credits) 15IUPCredits 2.0GPA
Note: A student who has applied and has been admitted by the Office of
Admissions to a branch campus is not eligible to apply to the School of
Continuing Education.
Program for Visiting High School Students
IUP permits the exceptional high school student to preview university life
and earn regular college credit on a limited nondegree basis. The student
must have completed the sophomore year with a minimum of a "B" average
and have the written support of the high school principal or guidance
counselor. The parameters of the student's enrollment are defined in
consultation with appropriate high school official and are limited to a
maximum of nine credits per semester. For further information, contact the
School of Continuing Education.
Post Baccalaureate Studies (Undergraduate)
The Post Baccalaureate Studies Program provides access to undergraduate
courses to individuals who have an earned baccalaureate degree. Students
may be seeking a second bachelor's degree, an additional teacher

The Summer Sessions
The summer school program at IUP is designed to meet the needs of many
students. Courses, workshops, and seminars are offered in the liberal arts, in
teacher education, and in other fields of study.
Continuing university students, including newly admitted freshmen, who
wish to accelerate their program of studies will find both Liberal Studies and
special courses in all fields of study. Students from other colleges and
universities may take courses at IUP; however, they are advised to first
ensure that their home institution will transfer such credits earned at IUP.
Teachers-in-service will find courses in the summer program to serve a
variety of needs. They may enroll to qualify for permanent certification, take
refresher courses in their field of specialization, or take courses for the
purpose of extending their certification to a new field.
The Summer Sessions Schedule, which contains information regarding
courses and activities offered during the summer sessions, is usually
available after March 1 and can be obtained by contacting the Registrar's
Office. Room G5, Sutton Hall (412-357-2217), or the Graduate School.
Room 128, Stright Hall (412-357-2222).

admission or readmission for continuing registration in the fall and/or spring
semesters. Students in good standing who desire admission must obtain an
application through the Office of Admissions or the School of Continuing
Education, as appropriate. Students who desire readmission for a fall
semester must apply to the office of their college dean by the preceding

Financial Aid
The Financial Aid Office, located at 308 Pratt Hall, offers financial
information and counseling to all students attending IUP. The types of
financial assistance offered by the Financial Aid Office include student
employment, loans, grants, and scholarships. The Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used to determine eligibility for
these programs.
The Financial Aid Office of IUP is providing the following information in
compliance with federal guidelines for the dissemination of financial
aid information.
In order to be considered for financial aid administered through the
university, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FASFA) must be
submitted to PHEAA in Harrisburg. Students will be awarded assistance
based on demonstrated financial need. In order to be eligible for continued
funding, the applicant must be in satisfactory academic standing at the
university, as defined in the Academic Standards Policy, and meet the
standards of the Financial Aid Sufficient Progress Policy.
Title IV Financial Assistance Programs include the following: Federal Pell
Grant, Federal College Work Study Program, Federal Supplemental
Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Stafford
Loan, and Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students. Maintaining
satisfactory academic progress at IUP for Title IV assistance purposes is
defined as being in compliance with both the university's Academic
Standards Policy and the Financial Aid Sufficient Progress Policy. Inability
to meet the guidelines of these two policies will result in a loss of funding
from all Title IV programs.
Financial Aid Sufficient Progress Policy
The Financial Aid Sufficient Progress Policy applies to all undergraduate
students enrolled in the university.
A. Sufficient Progress
To be in good standing on a sufficient progress basis, a student must
have earned at least 75 percent of the cumulative number of registered
credits at IUP.
1 . "Registered credits" is the number of credits for which a student is
enrolled at the end of the Drop/Add period (for a student who was
originally registered and charged at full-time status, and who reduces
during Drop/Add to part-time status, the registered credits will be
calculated as twelve).
Each student will be measured for sufficient progress annually in
January after fall grade processing. This evaluation will determine if the
student has a sufficient percentage of credits earned in order to be
eligible for Title IV funding for the next financial aid award year (July 1
through June 30).
B. Financial Aid Eligibility Warning
For a student who has not earned at least 75 percent of the cumulative
number of registered credits at IUP. a one-time Financial Aid Eligibility
Warning Period will be extended in order for deficiencies to be corrected.
This extension period will permit the student to receive Title IV funding for
the next financial aid award year (July 1 through June 30).
C. Financial Aid Suspension
If a student does not meet the sufficient percent of progress evaluation
after the Financial Aid Eligibility Warning Period, then all Title IV aid
for that student will be suspended in the next financial aid award year
(July 1 through June 30). A student who is in this financial aid
suspension status, however, will also be reviewed at the end of the
spring semester and summer terms in order to evaluate whether or not
the percentage of progress has been met through additional coursework.
If this improvement to 75 percent in the percentage of progress is
achieved, then the student's Title IV financial aid suspension will be
rescinded beginning with the next term of enrollment.
D. Appeal Process
For students who have experienced unusual circumstances which have
led to a lack of sufficient percentage of progress, such as medical
emergencies or death of a family member, a written appeal may be
submitted to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee for consideration of
reinstatement of Title IV aid eligibility.
Students who are notified during the annual January review period that
their Title IV aid will be suspended in the next financial aid award year
must submit a written appeal to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee
before June 30. This written appeal must specifically outline the
Finances — 15
reason(s) lor the percentage of progress deficiency and how the student
will make up this deficiency. For students who miss the June 30
deadline, an appeal tor reinstatement of Title IV aid for the spring term
of the ncxl award year will be accepted for review if received before
Novembei 10
After reviewing the written appeal of a student in financial aid
suspension, the Financial Aid Appeals Committee may decide to
reinstate Title IV financial aid eligibility for specific periods of the next
financial aid award year if the student had justifiable reasons for the lack
of sufficient progress. All appeal letters will be answered in writing by
the Financial Aid Appeals Committee as to the approval or denial of the
requested financial aid reinstatement and the semesters which are
involved with the decision.
E. Reinstatement of Title IV Aid Eligibility
For a student who has satisfactory academic progress deficiencies, one
of the following must occur in order for that student to receive Title IV
assistance:
1 . The student can reestablish eligibility for Title IV assistance by
meeting the minimum requirements for satisfactory academic
progress.
2. A student who is on academic probation and/or financial aid
eligibility warning will be eligible to receive Title IV funding while
classified in one or both of these categories.
3. In the case of a student who has not met the minimum criteria for
satisfactory academic progress due to unusual or mitigating
circumstances and has filed an appeal(s) which has granted the
student continuance of financial aid eligibility. Title IV aid funds
may be reinstated.
F. Summer Sessions
Title IV Financial Assistance Programs may be available during summer
session to eligible students. Students who lack sufficient progress only
may enhance satisfactory academic progress through additional
coursework during summer sessions and receive Title IV assistance.
However, all students attending summer sessions must have a
cumulative quality-point average of at least 1.5 in order to receive funds.
Exceptions may be granted for special circumstances by obtaining an
appeal form from the financial aid office.
G. Time Frame for Degree Completion
All students must complete their degree requirements within an
established time frame. Since enrollment status may vary from semester
to semester, the maximum time frame for degTee completion is measured
in terms of credits registered at IUP.
Under normal circumstances, an undergraduate student should complete
the requirements for a bachelor's degree at the point of having 165
registered credits at IUP. Since 75 percent of the registered credits must
be earned in order to be maintaining satisfactory academic progress, 124
credits (the number generally required for graduation) would be earned
at the point of having 165 registered credits.
For majors with graduation requirements in excess of 124 credits, the
maximum number of registered credits would increase proportionally.
For example, for degrees that require 130 credits, the maximum number
of registered credits at IUP is 173 credits.
Students who exceed these credit guidelines due to loss of transfer
credits, change of major, or double majors will be screened by the
Financial Aid Eligibility Review board for continuance.
H. Treatment of Audits. Incompletes, and Other Grades
In order that a student fully understands how various grades and
enrollments impact upon the calculation of satisfactory academic
progress, the following information is provided:
1. Audits. "S." and "U" Grades
Because course audits. "S," and "U" grades carry no credits, they are
not reviewed or counted for sufficient progress purposes.
2. Incompletes
Grades of "I." "R." and "*" are treated as credits attempted/zero
credits earned/no effect on QPA. However, these grades are treated
as noncompleted credits and have an impact in the calculation of the
percent of progress measure. (Note: The "*" is an administrative
symbol indicating that a grade was not submitted at the time of
grade processing.)
3. "F" Repeat with Replacement
An "F' repeat with replacement is treated as credits attempted/credits
earned/with the quality points of the new grade replacing the 0.00
QP of the original "F" grade. An "F" repeat has a positive effect on
the QPA but represents an additional number of credits attempted in
regard to the percent of progress measure.
4. "D" Repeat with Replacement
Repeated classes that are "D" replacements to a student's record are
treated as credits attempted/zero credits eamed/with the quality
points of the new grade replacing the 1 .00 QP of the D grade. A "D"
repeated with replacement may improve a student's QPA but
represents an additional number of credits attempted in regard to the
percent of progress measure.
5. Repeats with Averaging
Courses that are repeated with averaging count as credits attempted/
credits eamed/with the quality points for the class averaged into the
QPA. The maximum time frame for degree completion may be
impacted by repeat with averaging classes.
6. Withdrawals
Grades of "Q ". "W". "WP," or "WF" are treated as credits attempted/
zero credits earned/no effect on QPA. Any type of "Q" or "W" grade
is treated as noncompleted credits in the calculation of the student's
percent of progress standing.
7. Pass/Fail Grades
Pass grades are treated as registered credits/credits earned/no effect
on QPA. Fail grades are treated as registered credits/zero credits
eamed/with zero QP averaged into the calculation of QPA.
8. Noncredit Courses
Noncredit classes, such as those with Continuing Education Units
(CEUs). are not used in measuring sufficient progress, since these
classes cannot be applied towards degree requirements and no
financial aid may be received for enrollment.
9. Institutional Credits
Institutional credits are counted as registered credits/credits
completed. The QP for the course is not averaged into the student's
overall QPA.
10. Canceled Semester
All registered credits/credits completed are calculated in the
determination of percent of progress. The QPA for a canceled
semester is not averaged into the overall QPA of the student.
The appeal process regarding financial aid decisions is through the vice
president for Student Affairs.
Payment of Financial Aid
Payment of financial aid awards is done on a semester basis. All financial
aid, with the exception of private scholarships, and work-study, and the

finance their educational expenses. The university encourages students to

to students in their adjustment to campus life and the maintenance of their
academic averages. All campus employment is administered by the

Student Programs and Services
Orientation
IUP offers a three-phase orientation program for all new students. Freshmen
are expected to participate in each of the three programs, as they are
intended to provide information and programs which are designed to insure
a successful first-year experience.
Orientation Phase I: Interview/Orientation Day occurs during the late fall or
spring prior to students' matriculation on campus. During this day-long
experience, accepted students and their parents visit the main or branch
campuses, participate in major presentations describing academic and
student life, and discuss academic program offerings with college deans and
departmental representatives. This is an opportunity to assist students as
they make informed choices regarding the appropriateness of IUP as their
undergraduate college of choice.
Orientation Phase II: Summer Preregistration Placement Testing, Advising,
and Course Selection Program occurs during the summer immediately
preceding students' matriculation on campus. This experience is designed to
assess academic readiness for courses integral to the IUP curriculum,
including English, mathematics, and foreign languages. Students admitted to
the main campus or the Learning Center program participate in an
overnight, two-day experience which includes testing, academic advising,
and orientation to university curricular requirements and cocurricular
opportunities. Students who are admitted as branch campus freshmen
participate in a one-day program. Concurrent parent orientation programs
are offered.
Orientation Phase III: Fall Orientation occurs as students move on to
campus immediately prior to the beginning of fall classes. Phase Three is
designed to assure a smooth transition from the home environment to IUP's
campus community.
IUP views this three-phase orientation as unique and extremely important to
freshman retention and satisfaction with the university. The freshman year is
critical in regard to academic success. During this time, students must
simultaneously develop academic competence in the college curriculum and
adjust to the personal decision-making process college life affords. Each of
the three programs is designed to assist in this important college adjustment
process. Freshmen arc expected to participate fully in these three programs.
Residence Life
IUP is a residential campus. Its fourteen residence halls and two apartment
buildings are structured on a geographical basis into five areas. Each
residence hall is sponsored by a professional residence director with a
background in student development or counseling or by a graduate residence
director enrolled in the Student Affairs in Higher Education graduate
program. Responsibilities include administrative functions of the building,
programming and policy enforcement. Each residence hall also has
undergraduate resident assistants, RAs, who are responsible for helping
students, planning programs, carrying out administrative tasks, and
providing leadership for the development of a community among the
approximately thirty students living in their individual section of the
residence hall. The university's two apartment buildings are staffed with a
professional residence director and student managers. A student manager is
similar to a resident assistant.
It is the policy of IUP to offer full, equal, and nondiscriminatory assistance
to all students without regard to their race, color, religion, national origin,
sex. ancestry, sexual orientation, or physical ability in both the placement in
university housing and in the furnishing of facilities and services in relation
to that housing.
Rooms are available to both undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at
IUP. Each year the university reviews its housing policies and revises them
according to its needs for the coming year. The Office of Housing and
Residence Life is also responsible for making room assignments,
contracting for dining service, and providing information and services
related to off -campus housing. The Office of Housing and Residence Life is
located in G14 Sutton Hall, 357-2696.
University Residence Halls
The specific programs and services provided within the residence halls are
aimed at providing a residential program which supports the academic
mission of the university and fostering the development of a community in
which the rights and responsibilities of each individual are clearly defined
and respected. Respect for the learning process as well as respect for self,
others, and property is strongly emphasized. Students are encouraged to
question and explore increasingly complex intellectual and personal
challenges in their efforts to give meaning and direction to their lives. Staff
members actively provide support and challenge students as they assume
ownership and accept responsibility for their actions and important life
decisions. The residence halls represent and reflect the daily challenges of
what it is like to live in any community. It is the intention of the Office of
Housing and Residence Life to teach students those skills which prepare
them to be responsible community members so that when they leave the
university, they will be contributing and productive citizens in the larger
community in which they live.
Because residence hall living is seen as a positive educational experience,
first-year students are encouraged to live in residence halls unless they are
commuting from home. In an effort to make residence hall living more
responsive to individual needs, the university offers two living
arrangements: single sex and coed. Students are encouraged to consider
these options carefully and to select the one in which they would feel
most comfortable.
Student accommodations are based on double occupancy. Furnishings
include beds, mattresses, desks, chairs, mirrors, and dressers. Students
should bring their own blankets, bedspreads, towels, study lamps, and
mattress pads.
All IUP residence halls are equipped with study lounges, recreational
equipment, laundry facilities, and locked mailboxes. In addition, computer
terminals and other specialized equipment are located within each area for
student use. Each resident has a card key for his/her building which provides
entry after closing hours.
24 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
IUP also operates two apartment buildings, providing single student housing
in an apartment-style setting. The university provides telephone service, a
stove, refrigerator, kitchen table and chairs, beds, and dressers in each
apartment. Living room furniture is provided in Campus Towers only.

Children of a deceased or disabled veteran whose death or injury was due to
service-related causes may be eligible for educational assistance from the
federal government under Public Law 634 (Dependents Educational
Assistance Act). Immediately upon acceptance to IUP. men and women who
qualify for such assistance should contact the veterans counselor to process
then application for payment.
Guidelines fur Student Conduct
IUP is an academic community within the society at large. As a community,
it has formulated a code ol standards and expectations which the university
considers to be consistent with its purpose as an educational institution. IUP
reaffirms the principle of students' freedom coupled w hh an acceptance of
full responsibility for one's behavior and the consequences of such behavior.
As a member of the academic community and of the larger society, a student
retains the rights, protections, guarantees, and responsibilities which are
held by all citizens.
The judicial system of IUP exists to review all alleged academic violations
as well as violations of university regulations and/or federal, state, and local
ordinances. The primary intent of this educational system is to create a
positive behavioral change in the students while also protecting the rights of
the members of the university community. The system will hold the students
accountable for their actions when regulations or statutes have been
violated. A complete statement of regulations is available in the student
handbook.
Post Office
The University Post Office is located on the ground floor of Folger Hall, at
the corner of Pratt Drive and Maple Street. All United States and campus
mail is picked up and delivered daily to administrative offices and residence
halls from this location. As it is a contract station of the Indiana,
Pennsylvania, post office, the University Post Office also provides a window
service for university personnel for all postal services including box rentals.
Student Cooperative Association
The Student Cooperative Association has played an extremely broad role in
the cocurricular life of the university for more than sixty years. All students,
faculty, and staff, by virtue of paying the Activity Fee, are members of the
association. Virtually all campuswide activities outside the instructional
program are sponsored wholly or in part by the association.
The Activity Fee is the chief source of income for the association's
programs. The student's "I-Card" will admit him/her free of charge or at a
reduced fee to university social, cultural, and athletic events. Other income
for the association comes from the profits of the Co-op Store and income
from events sponsored by the association.
The Student Cooperative Association operates the Hadley Union Building,
which houses the Co-op Store, and the Co-op Recreational Park. The Hadley
Union Building, built by association members through the Activity Fee.
offers many facilities for use by the university community.
The Co-op Recreational Park comprises 270 acres of wooded hillsides and
fields. Included are a lodge building which will accommodate groups of up
to 200 people, a ski facility with two rope tows, toboggan run, cross-country
skiing and nature trails, picnic shelter, and garden plots.
Cocurricular Activities and Student Organizations
As participating members of the IUP community, students occupy a
responsible role in governance of the campus. Since a valuable part of
education lies in participation in groups where experience in leadership.
social and community responsibility, intellectual curiosity, and religious
interests can be met, voluntary participation in varied organizations is
available and encouraged.
There are currently more than 180 active student organizations at IUP
advised by faculty or staff selected by the students. Students are also
encouraged to initiate and support new groups which reflect interests not
represented by existing organizations.
Student Congress
The Student Congress is the representative and recognized voice of IUP's
student body. The Student Congress was created in the spring of 1989 to be
a unified student voice in a bicameral (two-house) arrangement. Seats are
reserved in the House of Representatives for each of the eight students
elected to the Student Cooperative Association's Board of Directors. The
Congress is led by a president elected at-large in a spring general election;
the president is a member of neither the House nor Senate. The sixty-four
member House is led by an internally elected vice-president. Its primary
responsibility lies with the student members of the Co-op Board of Directors
26 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
and with their internal appointments to the Co-op Finance Committee which
allocates the $300,000 supporting recognized organizations and activities on
campus. The forty-two-member Senate is also led by an internally elected
vice-president. This vice-president becomes the student nominee for the
position of vice chair of the University Senate. Each student senator serves
as a member of the University Senate, which is also composed of faculty
and administration. The primary responsibilities of the student senators lie
with their seats on University Senate committees, which address 1UP policy.
The Student Congress meets twice monthly as an assembly. Every student
enrolled at IUP is considered a member of the SC, and input is always
sought and valued.
Residence Hall Association
The Residence Hall Association ( RHA ) is made up of all students living in
university residence halls. The executive body of RHA is composed of
elected representatives from each residence hall. The purpose of RHA is to
provide educational, social, and community service programs for residents;
to collect information on various aspects of residence hall life; and to assist
in formulating housing policies and procedures.
Activities
Under the supervision of the Office of Student Activities and Organizations
and funded for the most part by the Student Cooperative Association, IUP
has many activities which are orchestrated by students and which offer
entertainment and cultural programs for the entire university community.
These activities provide a significant opportunity for students to become
more involved with their campus as well as to experience the growth and
personal development which involvement provides.
Organizations and activities sponsoring the majority of IUP events include
The Entertainment Network (TEN), Artist Series, Black Cultural Center,
Black Emphasis Committee, Ideas and Issues Series, Summer Activities, and
the University Concert Committee. Participation in these and other groups is
strongly encouraged.
Student Publications
The Perm, IUP's campus newspaper, is published three times a week during
the fall and spring semesters by students wishing to gain practical
newspaper experience. Interested students are advised to attend
organizational meetings held in the beginning of each semester.
The Oak is the university yearbook, a pictorial and written review of the
year's activities. Subscriptions may be purchased in the fall or early in the
Spring Semester. The Penn will carry notices of subscription drives.
Applications for staff positions may be obtained from the Oak office or from
the adviser.
The University Directory is distributed early in the fall term to students and
faculty. It contains a listing of all properly registered students and of staff,
faculty, and university offices.
The Student Handbook is distributed to all students free of charge. It
includes rules and regulations, the extracurricular program, and general
information of interest to students.

Religious Life
The religious life of students is cared for through the activities of some
twelve organizations which comprise the IUP Interfaith Council. Three of
these, the Newman Center, the United Campus Ministry, and the Lutheran
Center, maintain private facilities near the campus. Others affiliate with and
meet in local churches for worship and meetings.
The Advising and Testing Center
The Advising and Testing Center is available to provide assistance to both
students and faculty. Among its functions are implementing the summer
preregistration testing program; offering career planning classes and
computer-assisted career counseling to undecided majors; co-conducting
registration for January freshmen and branch campus students; processing
total university withdrawals; serving the needs of students with disabilities;
and assisting in providing advising information to students and advisers. The

Academic Policies — 27
Academic Policies
Classification of Students
In order to be classified as full-time, undergraduate students attending any
regular academic year semester must be currently enrolled in at least twelve
semester hours of credit.
In the IUP summer sessions, a student must be currently enrolled in at least
six semester hours during either session in order to be certified as a full-time
enrollee for either of those scheduled instructional periods.
Full-time certification for students enrolled in instructional periods which do
not conform to the regularly scheduled academic sessions will be based
upon the number of enrolled semester hours during that period of enrollment
(e.g., one semester hour in one week of instruction would equal the
minimum full-time certification standard).
For purposes of designating students by class, the following credit-hour
classification ranges are used:
Freshmen 28 semester hours or less
Sophomores 29-56 semester hours
Juniors 57-90 semester hours
Seniors 91 semester hours or more
Class designations are based on credits earned rather than credits attempted.
Persons holding a degree and working for a second baccalaureate degree
may be classified as seniors.
Normal Semester Hour Loads
A normal semester hour load is 15-17 semester hours. A student who wishes
to schedule more than 17.5 semester hours must obtain approval from the
dean of the college in which he/she is registered; approval will be predicated
upon various criteria such as the student's demonstrated competencies, total
courses, and specific conditions. The signed approval form must be
submitted at registration or drop/add to schedule the crcdit(s) beyond 17.5.
When taking nineteen or more credits, a student is responsible for paying a
per-credit lee at the current rate for each credit beyond eighteen.
Grades and Quality Points
In the grading system, the following grades are used in reporting the
Standing of students at the end of each semester or summer term: A,
excellent; B. good; C, average; D, passed: F. failed; I, incomplete; R,
deferred; P. pass/fail (option). Regarding the option of pass/fail courses, if a
student fails the course, he/she will be awarded an F and the terms of
"failing" a course will prevail. The grade of R is used to indicate deferred
status for certain types of continuing study courses. It must be converted
within one calendar year after issuance.
The grade of I is used to record work which, so far as covered, is of passing
grade but is incomplete because of personal illness or other unavoidable
reason. It must be made up within 180 calendar days after issuance of the
grade. The grade of W, designates that the student has voluntarily withdrawn
from a course within a specified period after the beginning of any regular
semester. The grade of Q is assigned to all courses in a semester or session
when a student withdraws completely from registration in the university.
The W and Q grades carry no credits or quality points for the courses in
which they are reported but do appear on the student's record.
Shortly after each semester or summer session, a full grade report is mailed
to each student at his or her home address.
Quality points are assigned as follows: Grade A, four quality points per
semester hour; B, three quality points per semester hour; C, two quality
points per semester hour; D, one quality point per semester hour; and F, no
quality points.
Quality points are not counted on grades from other schools, and a student
transferring from another school is held responsible for quality points only
on work taken in this university.
Cumulative Quality-Point Average is determined by multiplying the credit
hours per course by the grade in quality points received for that course,
repeating this procedure for each course attempted, totaling the credit hour
quality points thus obtained, and dividing by the total number of credit
hours attempted.
Institutional Credits are associated with remedial courses which are
numbered below 100. Credits from institutional credit courses do not apply
to degree requirements for graduation but are used in determining
enrollment status (full or part time) including financial aid and athletic
(NCAA) eligibility.
Course Repeats
The semester hours for a course repeated after January 1 , 1 974. shall be
counted only once for all attempts; it is this number of hours that will be
used in quality-point average (QPA) computation. (In the case where a
course is repeated for a different number of hours of credit than when taken
initially, the number of hours corresponding to the highest grade will be
used in the QPA computations.) It should be noted that the transcript
continues to carry the full, unabridged record, with no deletion of repeated
courses from the visual record.
The total quality points for all attempts of the repeated course will be the
number assigned for the highest grade earned.
The QPA for the repeated course will be determined by dividing the number
of quality points by the number of semester hours earned. Only courses with
a D or F grade may be repeated and then only with the approval of the
student's adviser. Only six repeat attempts may be made subsequent to the
adoption of this policy during a baccalaureate degree program.
A course taken at another university will not be applicable to lUP's D/F
Repeat Policy, and if credits are transferred they will block repeat of the
course at IUP.
To repeat a course in which a grade of 'D' or 'F' was received, a student
must file a D/F repeat form prior to repeating a course. The D/F Repeat
forms, available in departmental offices, must be filed by the specified
deadline by validation in the Scheduling Center, G-8C Sutton.
28 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
Pass-Fail Policy
The purpose of pass-fail is to permit a student to take an elective course in a
field of personal interest where he/she may be competing with major
students in the department in which the course is offered. When scheduled,
such a course shall be included in the student's normal course load for
the semester.
A student may take courses on a pass-fail basis to a total of fifteen semester
hours throughout his/her university career. The student is limited to one
pass-fail course in any given semester during the sophomore, junior, and
senior years. All courses in the student's Liberal Studies program and in his/
her major and minor fields are excluded from this prerogative.
The student must declare his/her intent to choose pass-fail in a specific
course no later than six weeks after the beginning of the semester or the
equivalent timespan in a summer session. Once declared, this pass-fail
option may not be revoked. Instructors will not be notified of the identity of
pass-fail students in their courses; identification will be handled by the
Computer Center through an appropriate coded control.
A student shall be given academic credit without quality points for a course
taken pass-fail upon receiving a passing mark in the course. The semester
hours successfully completed under pass-fail ("passed"), within the overall
fifteen semester hour limitation, shall be recorded as counting towards the
total semester hours earned for graduation but not towards the semester-
hours-attempted data used in calculation of the cumulative quality-point
average. However, if a student fails a pass/fail course, he/she will receive
the "F" grade and the corresponding quality-point average. An F earned
under the pass/fail option may be repeated only under the graded option to
provide the quality points to correspond to the "hours attempted" incurred
with the F.
The summer sessions, collectively or in any combination, shall be
considered a unit similar to a spring or fall semester for pass-fail purposes.
Hence, a student is permitted to take only one course during the summer on
a pass-fail basis.
Cancelled Semester Policy
The Cancelled Semester Policy permits students returning after significant
separation from the university to delete from the Cumulative Grade-Point
Average (CGPAI calculation the results of one particularly unfortunate
semester. A student who has not been enrolled in four consecutive semesters
and the intervening summer sessions may apply upon application for
readmission or w ithin one year of readmission for the application of this
policy to any single semester completed before readmission. While
readmission may be based on the application for cancelled semester, the
transcript record will reflect this only after the student is enrolled and
attending. [For cancellation purposes, a semester is defined as any semester
of enrollment, whether full or part time, with sessions in a single summer
together constituting one semester.] All grades — passing, failing,
withdrawals — in that semester must be cancelled from the CGPA. There is
no abridgment of the transcript; the courses and grades remain visible on the
official transcript. Credit toward graduation remains for those credits
associated with passing grades. A student may never cancel more than one
semester from his/her CGPA under this policy.
Audit Policy
To audit an undergraduate course, a person must be admitted to the
university and have met course prerequisites. Students wishing to audit a
course for which they registered at registration should obtain a Course Audit
Form from the department chairperson of the course. To audit a course not
previously registered for at registration, students must first process an "add"
for the course before filing a course audit form. All audit processing,
including revocation of previously requested audit classification, must be
completed during the regular drop/add period. Copies of the completed form
are returned to the Scheduling Center, to the department chairperson, and to
the student. Audit students have the same privileges as other students in all
coursework. There is no limit on the number of courses which may
be audited.
Auditors will pay normal tuition and such other fees as may be required for
the course.
Advanced Placement and Credit/Exemption Examinations
Courses taken by students prior to admission to college under the Advanced
Placement Program of the College Entrance Examination Board may be
recognized by the award of college credit or by exemption from required
subjects. Those who earn a grade of 3, 4, or 5 in the Advanced Placement
Examination will be granted credit toward the number of credit hours
required for graduation.
For students who have had other unusual opportunities for instruction or
have advanced in a given field, an opportunity to gain credit and/or
exemption from a course is afforded through examinations. The University
Testing Services Office (302 Pratt Hall) offers credit options through the
College Level Examination Program (CLEP).
Students have an opportunity to gain exemption or credit through successful
completion of comprehensive examinations by requesting from the
academic department an exam as a substitute for completing all the usual
requirements of the course.
A student who passes an exemption examination will be exempt from taking
that course in his/her academic program. When a student receives credit for
a course by examination, the credit will be applied to graduation
requirements just as though the course had been taken. If a student is
granted exemption only from a course, he/she will be permitted to take a
free elective in place of that course.
This enables the student to further specialize, to correct weaknesses outside
his/her major field, to build his/her knowledge in an ancillary area, or to
introduce himself/herself to an entirely different area.
Courses for which credit or exemption are awarded by examination will not
be used in the determination of quality-point averages.
Schedule Changes (Drop/Add)
The university registration system is characterized as one of continuous
registration, using either TELREG (telephone registration) orTERMREG
(terminal registration). From the student's initial registration time for a
given semester until the beginning of classes for the semester (except for
specified restricted times), a student may modify his/her schedule to the
extent that classes are available or permission to register for a restricted
section has been granted and entered into the computer system. Opportunity
to drop or add sections extends to the third day of a semester, as announced.
Each student is responsible for making the appropriate computer
transactions to ensure schedule accuracy. Note particularly that while the
department may enter permission to register for a section, the actual
registration transaction must be entered by the student. The schedule of
classes information includes specific directions for registration and
modification for students.
Individual Course Withdrawal Policy
(effective until June 1, 1995)
During the fall, spring, and summer sessions, students are permitted to
withdraw from a course with a grade of "W" up to the midpoint of the
course. Faculty members are required to inform students of their standing in
the class prior to the midpoint of the course.
For all individual course withdrawals, the student must complete a course
withdrawal form, available in department offices. This form must be signed
by both the student and the instructor.
After the close of the prescribed withdrawal period, a student may w ithdraw
from a course only with the approval of his/her adviser, department
chairperson, and college dean (in that order), for such reasons as illness,
accident, or extreme personal problems. Such withdrawal may occur no later
than one week before the beginning of final examinations.
All audited courses will be identified as such on the student's grade report
and transcript. Work taken on an audit basis will not be graded and will not
count toward the fulfillment of requirements for a degree to be awarded by
IUP. Since credit hours attempted and quality points will not be awarded for
audited courses, they will not affect the student's quality-point average in
any way whatsoever.
If a student fails to complete the requirements for a course but has not
formally processed a withdrawal from the university, the instructor shall
note in his/her course records the student's last attendance date and/or other
activity and assign an "F" for the course.
Academic Policies — 29
Individual Course Withdrawal Policy
(effective on June I, 1995)
An undergraduate student is permitted five lniinuiu.il Course Withdrawals
at 1UP. Exceptions for unusual circumstances, il any, will he by letter of
petition to the dean ol the student's college, with appropriate documentation
oi the circumstances.
For all indiv idual course withdrawals, the student must complete a course
withdrawal form, available in department offices. This form must he signed
h\ the student, his/her ad\ iser. and the instructor. The completed form must
be processed through the office of the dean of the student's college. (Check
the Schedule of Classes Bulletin for specific information on how to process
individual course withdrawals.)
Indi\ idual course withdrawals may he processed only during the first two-
thirds of the term. Instructors are required to inform students of their
standing in class prior to this time. A student wishing to withdraw from a
course after the deadline may request a waiver by filing an Emergency Late
( ourse Withdraw al Request through the office of the dean of his/her college.
Approval is contingent upon documentation of exceptional events of a
catastrophic nature that could not have been anticipated.
At the time of implementation, each continuing student will have five
additional individual course withdrawal options, without regard to the
number of his/her previous course withdrawals.
Total University Withdrawal Policy
An undergraduate student who does not register for the succeeding semester
or, having registered, does not appear for classes at the beginning of the
succeeding semester, is considered to have withdrawn from the university.
Thereafter, he/she must apply for readmission as prescribed under
"Admission and Registration."
Any undergraduate student withdraw ing from the university during a
semester or a summer session must secure a Withdrawal Form from the
Advising and Testing Center. 106 Pratt Hall (357-4067). The student will
clear the form with the appropriate offices listed in the form, securing their
signatures as evidence of clearance. (Students seeking medical withdrawal
must also provide the Advising and Testing Center with a physician's
corroboration of a medical need to withdraw. ) The Withdraw al Form will
then be returned to the Advising and Testing Center, which will notify the
appropriate college dean, campus agencies, and instructors that an official
withdrawal has been processed. No person shall be considered withdrawn
from the university w ithm a semester or summer session unless such notice
is received. Grades of Q will be assigned to all registered courses in the
semester/session from which the student is withdrawing.
Undergraduate Course Attendance Policy
The university expects all students to attend class.
Individual faculty members may define attendance standards appropriate to
each course and the consequences of not meeting those standards, within the
following guidelines:
1 . Each policy must be distributed in writing during the first week of the
course. Normally, it is expected that the information dealing with class
attendance standards will be distributed with the Semester Course
Syllabus.
2. Each policy must recognize students' need to miss class because of
illness or personal emergency.
3. Each policy must define some limited level of allowable absence,
normally at least a number of clock hours equal to course credit hours.
Approved May 13. 1994. Council of Trustees
Criteria Governing Continuance at IUP
Continuance at IUP is determined according to the university's Academic
Standards Policy as approved by University Senate December. 1987, and
Council of Trustees in Februarv. 1988. This policv became effective
July 1. 1988.
Academic Standards Policy
The Academic Standards Policy applies to all undergraduate degree
candidates of the university. Academic standards for students enrolled in
graduate courses and programs will be defined and administered through the
Graduate School. Academic standards for participants in nondegree
programs will be defined separately.
Authority to administer the Academic Standards Policy is vested in the dean
of the college which has jurisdiction for the student's primary major. That
responsibility may he assigned to an appropriate designee. Students
officially adv ised by the Learning Center are reviewed by the assistant vice
president for Student Affairs.
Academic Good Standing:
Every undergraduate student must maintain a cumulative 2.00 GPA to be in
academic good standing. There are two review periods: January and May.
Continuation of enrollment is permitted under defined circumstances.
1. January Review Period:
The academic standing of each student is reviewed. A student whose
cumulative GPA is below 2.00 is considered to be in a Probation status.
2. May Review Period:
The academic standing of each student is reviewed. A student must have
a cumulative GPA of 2.00 to be in good academic standing.
a. For a student who matriculated during the preceding summer or
September, the following criteria apply:
— if the cumulative GPA is between 1.80 and 1.99. the student is
continued on probation.
— if the cumulative GPA is below 1.80. the student is dismissed.
b. For a student who matriculated through the Learning Center/ Act 101
during the preceding summer or September, the following criteria
apply:
— if the cumulative GPA is between 1.80 and 1.99, the student is
continued on probation.
— if the cumulative GPA is below 1.80, and the student is in
compliance with the participation requirements of the Learning
Center program, the student is continued on probation.
— if the cumulative GPA is below 1 .80, and the student is not in
compliance with the participation requirements of the Learning
Center program, the student is dismissed.
c. For a student who matriculated in the immediately preceding
semester, the following criteria apply:
— if the cumulative GPA is below 2.00. the student is continued on
probation.
d. For all other continuing students, the following criteria apply:
— if the cumulative GPA is below 2.00, the student is dismissed.
Probation:
1 . Definition: Probation status is that status of any student who has a
cumulative GPA less than 2.00 and who has permission to enroll in
the university.
2. Student responsibilities:
A student who is in Probation status is expected to meet w ith his/her
adviser prior to or within the first w eek of each semester to review
current course load and to establish a plan of contact for the semester. It
is generally anticipated that a probation student will develop personal
change strategies utilizing appropriate professional resources such as
adviser, faculty. Counseling Center. Learning Center, Career Sen ices,
workshops, tutoring programs, and other support systems.
3. Additional conditions:
As a condition of deferral of dismissal, a dean (or designee) may include
specific conditions designed to promote improved academic performance.
Dismissal:
1. A student who does not meet minimum academic standards is subject to
automatic dismissal in May. Dismissal is the normal consequence of
cumulative performance below the academic standards as published: the
office of the dean provides confirmation of dismissal status and
additional information.
2. Dismissal in May includes the cancellation of previously scheduled fall
classes and the elimination of guarantees associated with fall housing
and dining contracts.
3. Appeal for deferral of dismissal: In certain cases extenuating
circumstances may exist which in the professional judgment of the
college dean or designee will warrant a brief extension of enrollment
30 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
privilege at IUP. A student should understand that it is the student's
responsibility to anticipate, to initiate, and to fully document and
cooperate in all aspects of the process of appeal in a timely manner. The
student must tile in the office of the dean (or designee) the completed
application for appeal with all supporting documentation pertinent to
review of the appeal. All material must be filed by 4:00 p.m.. June 15, to
be considered for the fall semester.
Readmission:
1. All dismissed students seeking readmission must make application for
readmission through the appropriate college office. A student who has
been dismissed may use summer sessions at IUP in support of the
application for readmission. The application will detail procedures
including deadlines and information needed for consideration of
readmission plan.
Sufficient progress:
The IUP Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy requires
sufficient academic progress toward a degree on both academic good
standing (GPA) and sufficient progress (percent of progress) bases. The
standard of academic good standing is defined within the university's
Academic Standards Policy. The standard of sufficient progress for financial
aid eligibility is the successful completion of seventy-five percent (75
percent) of the cumulative number of registered credits at IUP. "Registered
credits" are the number of credits for which a student is enrolled at the end
of the Drop/Add period. (For a student who was originally registered and
charged at full-time status and who reduced during Drop/Add to part-time
status, the registered credits will be calculated as twelve.)
A student who meets the standard of academic good standing of the
Academic Standards Policy but who does not meet the standard of sufficient
quantitative progress may continue in university registration but without
financial aid eligibility for the federal Title IV aid programs.
A full statement of requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progress for
Title IV Federal Student Assistance is available through the Financial
Aid Office.
All courses taken at IUP become a part of the student's permanent academic
record. The record shall show hours attempted, hours earned, and quality
points earned.
The academic standing of all students is computed on the basis of courses
attempted at this university only. Credit is granted for work completed in
other institutions in accordance with the stipulations set forth under
"Admission and Registration."
Academic Honors
IUP recognizes academic achievement through Dean's Lists, Provost's
Scholars, and graduation honors.
Dean's Lisr — Undergraduate students receive recognition on the Dean's
List for each semester (or summer sessions cumulatively) in which they earn
at least a 3.25 quality-point average based on at least twelve credits of
graded (not P/F) coursework.
Provost's Scholar — Sophomores and juniors who have a cumulative
quality-point average of 3.50 and above at midyear are named Provost's
Scholars and are recognized at an annual Honors Convocation, usually
in April.
Graduation Honors — Traditional Latin honors are awarded at graduation to
bachelor's degree candidates with appropriate academic records. Calculation
is based on all undergraduate credits and quality points earned at IUP.
Graduation honors are not granted for second (subsequent) degrees. The
distinctions are:
Cum laude — 3.25 to 3.49 cumulative quality-point average
Magna cum laude — 3.50 to 3.74 cumulative quality-point average
Summa cum laude — 3.75 to 4.00 cumulative quality-point average
Advisory Program
A group of selected faculty members act as freshman advisers for entering
freshmen in their departments. In some curriculums the advisers continue
with the same group of advisees from year to year. In other curriculums the
freshman advisers remain with their advisee groups only for the students'
first year; under this program, the student is then assigned an academic
adviser for the remaining years through to his/her degree in his/her
chosen field.
Faculty advisers counsel the students on academic achievement, dropping
courses, changing curriculum, student activities, study schedules, and
personal problems. The adviser receives a copy of the student's permanent
record at the beginning of the academic year.
Changes of Major
To qualify for change of major, a student must be in academic good standing
(2.00 GPA) and must meet any other requirements specific to the major. The
following majors have requirements beyond 2.00 GPA: Criminology and all
teacher certification programs.
A student must indicate his/her desire to change to a new curriculum in the
office of the dean of the college in which the student is registered if the
curriculum change desired is from one department to another within the
same college (for example, change from a mathematics major to a biology
major) or in the office of the dean of the college to which the student wishes
to transfer if the curriculum change is from one college to another (for
example, secondary education major to biology major). In either case, the
student will complete an application form that is available in the dean's
office. Before seeking a curriculum change, it is advisable that the student
consult with the chairpersons of both the "old" and "new" departments.
When a student changes colleges, the dean of the college (or dean's agent)
into which the transfer is sought will evaluate the student's credits before
approving the transfer. A copy of the evaluation will be made available to
the student and his/her new adviser if a change in curriculum is effected.
In cases involving students who are veterans, the dean of the college into
which transfer is sought (or dean's agent) shall give the veteran a statement
of prospective approval and the effective date of the proposed changes. This
statement shall also indicate the amount of extended training time the
change of curriculum will entail and the amount of credit loss, if any. The
veteran shall take this statement to the veteran's counselor at least one
month prior to the effective date of the change. No transfer of curriculum
shall be made by veterans until V.A. approval has been assured.
Sophomore Screening for Junior Status Approval
General policy at IUP permits each college to determine its own scheme for
evaluating the development and progress of its major students. However,
each college is expected to employ some effective procedure for such
evaluation.
Several of the colleges use a procedure called "Sophomore Screening for
Junior Status Approval" with the following required: All students (in such a
college) enrolled in their fourth semester or who will complete fifty-seven
semester hours attempted by the end of the current semester must apply for
Junior Status approval by filling out an application form by the deadline
date designated and announced.
All students should check with their faculty advisers to determine which
colleges use "Junior Status" screening procedure and the criteria for Junior
Status Approval.

appeal through the proper channels: academic adviser, chairperson,
College of Education dean (or designee), teacher education appeals
committee. Appeals must be made before the end of the next regular
academic semester following the application.
Every effort should be made to resolve the appeal through the process so
described. If, at the conclusion, the student is still in disagreement with
the findings, the student may request review before a special Teacher
Education Appeals Committee. The committee will be composed of
three voting members representing the faculty, cooperating teachers, and

written documentation of his/her complaint about the process of review
for continuation or eligibility in the teacher education program. The
committee will review the materials and make its recommendation to the
dean. College of Education. A final decision rests with the dean of the
college, who is the certification officer.
End Notes
In all cases where adviser action is required, a department may choose to
use a committee or other departmentally approved process. In cases
where recommendations are supplied by someone other than the
academic adviser, the department needs to place a copy of its policy and
procedures on file with the dean of the College of Education.
Some departments have additional Junior Standing requirements in
place. Departments may continue to apply those requirements but need
to keep a current copy of these requirements on file with the dean of the
College of Education.
The policy as here stated applies to all students applying to Teacher
Certification Programs on or after September 1. 1988, and includes
updated procedures and editorial revisions as submitted to the University
Senate in May, 1990, and May, 1992.
E. Removal of a Student Teacher from a Student Teaching Placement
Purpose:
To establish reasons or a process for removal of a student teacher from
the student teaching assignment. The first two items are consistent with
Act 34. Criminal Record Check; item 3 establishes a procedure if student
behavior is not consistent with appropriate expectations of the school
district; item 4 establishes a process and assures that the student teacher
learns of unsatisfactory progress as early as possible; and item 5 an
appeal process.
Policy:
Student teachers are ultimately guests of the cooperating school districts
and may be removed by the district officers. A student teacher may also
be removed by IUP from the student teaching assignment for any of the
following reasons:
1 . If indicted for a felony which is covered in the School Code and Act
34, there shall be a removal of the student teacher from the school
assignment until the mattered is cleared. When the student is cleared
of the indictment, the student teaching assignment will be extended
to cover the time missed during student teaching.
2. If convicted of a felony which is covered in the School Code and
Act 34, the student teacher will be withdrawn from the student
teaching assignment and will forfeit the time spent during the student
teaching assignment.
3. If the behavior exhibited by the student teacher is not acceptable to
the school district, it should be documented by the school
administrator/principal in collaboration with the cooperating teacher
and the university supervisor/coordinator and director. Student
Teaching Office. If after discussion with the student, improvement is
evidenced, no further action will be taken by the Student
Teaching Office.
4. If it is determined either by the cooperating teacher or university
supervisor that the teaching competency of the student teacher is at
an unsatisfactory level based on the teaching competencies indicated
on the evaluation form and not in the best interest of the students, a
three-way conference of cooperating teacher, university supervisor,
and student will be held to discuss the concern, possible, outcomes,
and remedial strategies. If after consultation with university
director of Student Teaching, removal from this student teaching
placement is necessary, this action shall be done by the director
of Student Teaching and the dean of the College of Education.
This behavior should be documented and discussed as early in the
student teaching experience as possible.
Decisions made under this policy may be appealed to the dean. College
of Education (certification officer).
Internship/Cooperative Education
Many departments of the university have developed internship/cooperative
education programs which allow a student to participate in university-
supervised work experiences for variable academic credit. Internships/co-
ops are viewed as an integral part of a student's academic preparation. An
internship/co-op gives the student an opportunity to apply theoretical and
philosophical tenets of a discipline in a practical job experience related to
the student's academic program.
Students may apply for an internship if they have completed 57 semester
hours and have at least a 2.0 QPA. Internship sites are normally located
within a 500-mile radius of the campus. Overseas placements are located
near an IUP center. Internships are available in state and federal offices;
businesses at the local, state, and national level: state-related agencies;
corporations; and foundations.
Students may apply for a co-op if they have completed 30 semester hours
and have at least a 2.0 QPA. Two experiences are required. Sites are national
and international. Placements parallel those of the internship program.
Students who are eligible for financial aid may receive federal and state
funding while participating in an internship. Students must apply to the
Relating Experience to Academic Learning Program (REAL).
Because internships are viewed as an integral part of the student's academic
program, students who are interested in specific internship programs should
consult with the internship adviser in the department of their major. A
maximum of 12 credits is applicable to an undergraduate degree program
from any combination of co-op and internship experiences.
For general information about university internships, placement options, and
REAL and WCLA experiences, the student should consult the director of
Experiential Education and the Employment section of the Financial Aid
information in this catalog.
Reserve Officers Training Corps
The United States Army established a unit of the Reserve Officers Training
Corps at the university in 1950. In fulfilling the university's three-credit
Liberal Studies requirement in Health and Wellness for graduation, students
may take four credits of Military Science and receive full credit for the
Health and Physical Education requirement. Enrollment in the four-credit
ROTC option incurs no military obligation whatsoever and allows the
student the option of competing for a three-year ROTC Scholarship.
Upon graduation from the university and successful completion of the
Advanced Course ROTC program, the student will receive a commission as
a second lieutenant and serve from three months to three years on active
duty, depending on active Army requirements. As an alternative to active
duty, the individual may either be chosen or volunteer to complete his/her
service obligation with the Army Reserve or National Guard.
Students seeking advanced degrees can be granted an educational delay by
the Army following completion of their baccalaureate degrees. Upon
completion of the advanced degree, students then enter active duty or Army
Reserve/National Guard duty.
Prior Learning Assessment Programs
IUP offers several methods for earning university credit for college-level
learning gained through work and life experience. Through the Office of
Career Services, the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offers
standardized examinations in general and specific subjects. In addition,
departmental examinations are also available in specific areas on a
limited basis.
Where examinations are not available, portfolio assessment may provide the
student with the opportunity to present evidence of learning for evaluation
by a university faculty member. Through portfolio assessment, work and life
experiences are evaluated to determine their appropriateness and
applicability for university credit. Credits earned through prior learning
assessment may not be applied towards university residency requirements.
In addition, no more than one-half of a major may be earned by CLEP.
departmental examination, and portfolio assessment. Contact the School of
Continuing Education for specific details.
Policy on Prior Learning Assessment
IUP has authorized a policy for assessment of prior learning that took place
outside traditional classrooms in a procedure known as Portfolio
Assessment. It is particularly designed for adults with extensive
documentable knowledge from work experience, travel, independent study,
or other out-of-class experiences.

Academic Integrity Policy
A. Introduction
IUP is an academic community within the society at large. All members
within this community are expected to accept the responsibility for
academic integrity and honesty. Academic dishonesty seriously erodes
the quality of educational pursuits and is unacceptable at IUP. The
following policies and procedures have been established to preserve the
academic integrity of the university community, while also providing a
process that protects the rights of students who allegedly violate
these policies.
B. Types of Violations
Academic dishonesty includes but is not limited to the following:
1 . Providing or receiving unauthorized assistance in coursework, lab
work, or during examinations or quizzes.
2. Using unauthorized materials or devices, such as crib notes, during
examinations or quizzes.
3. Plagiarizing term papers, essays, reports, speeches and oral
presentations, take-home examinations, computer projects, and other
academic exercises by misrepresenting or passing off the ideas,
words, formulas, or data of another as one's own. Examples include
but are not limited to: incorporating verbatim or nearly verbatim
portions of other sources into assignments without using quotation
marks and specifying the sources of the material; incorporating ideas
from other sources into assignments without acknowledging the
source of the ideas.
4. Possessing course examination materials before the administration of
the exam, w ithout the prior knowledge or consent of the instructor.
5. Intentionally evading IUP academic policies and procedures; for
example improperly processing course withdrawals, grade changes,
or other academic procedures.
6. Falsifying information, including forging signatures on various forms
and documents, or altering or adding answers on academic exercises
or exams after work has been graded.
7. Computer dishonesty, including: tampering with or making
unauthorized change to another person's or the university's computer
system, illegally copying computer software, any use of another
person's computer account, unauthorized activity involving another
individual's personal computer system or any system belonging to
the university, and other unauthorized use or violations involving
computer use.
8. Noncompliance: failure to follow through with sanction(s) imposed
as a result of an academic violation.
C. Procedures
Charges of academic dishonesty may be brought by faculty members or
administrators. Students who observe or become aware of an incident of
academic dishonesty by another student are strongly encouraged to
report it to a university official. Sanction(s) may not be imposed upon
a student believed to have engaged in academic dishonesty without
following one of the processes outlined in this policy.
A faculty member or administrator who believes that a student has violated
an academic policy may elect any of the following procedures to resolve
the matter:
1. Option I: Informal Resolution
a. The faculty member or administrator and student may meet
informally within five class days of the observation or discovery' of
the incident and agree to resolve the issue without submitting any
formal documentation. It is recommended that the faculty member
or administrator complete a statement that summarizes the
34 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
conference which led to the resolution. This factual statement should
be signed by both parties and copies provided to the student and the
faculty member or administrator. If agreement cannot be reached, or
at the discretion of the faculty member, a more formal process as
outlined in this policy may be initiated.
2. Option II: Resolution by Docun -nted Agreement
a. The faculty member or administrator may schedule a conference with
the student in an attempt to agree on the facts of the case and to reach
a mutually agreeable resolution This meeting must be scheduled/
requested within five class days of the observation or discovery of
the alleged violation or of the failure of resolution by Option I. If an
agreement is reached, the faculty member or administrator must
complete a Documented Agreement Form outlining the agreement
and have it signed by both parties. Copies are distributed to the
student, the faculty member or administrator filing the agreement,
and the assistant to the vice president for Student Affairs. The form
must be filed within five class days of the conference.
b. Once the agreement has been reached and the form is filed, the
matter is closed. By signing off on the agreement, the student is
waiving the right to appeal the sanctions agreed upon in the
conference. If the student fails to fulfill the written agreement, the
faculty member or administrator may file an academic dishonesty
referral against the student for noncompliance.
c. If a documented agreement resolution is reached, no formal
academic violation report is filed. If this is the student's first offense,
the resolution agreement remains part of the student's internal
university record and is maintained on file as indicated in the
recordkeeping section of this policy (See section F.2).
d. If a documented agreement is not reached, the faculty member or
administrator should initiate the formal adjudication process by filing
an academic dishonesty referral form with ihe assistant to the vice
president for Student Affairs within five class days of the conference
with the student.
3. Option III: Resolution by Formal Adjudication
A faculty member or administrator should pursue formal resolution of
academic violations if:
— he/she cannot reach or chooses not to attempt a mutually agreeable
resolution with the student regarding the facts of the case or
sanctions to be imposed,
— he/she believes that suspension or expulsion is an appropriate
sanction due to the severity of the violation, or
— the faculty member or administrator is aware that the student has
previously violated this policy.
a. The faculty member or administrator should file an academic
dishonesty referral form with the assistant to the vice president for
Student Affairs within five class days of the observation or discovery
of the violation, or within five class days of the documented
agreement resolution conference if an agreement could not be
reached. In any case, the referral must be filed no more than ten class
days from the observation or discovery of the incident.
b. This referral must describe in detail the alleged violation and the
recommended sanctions if the student is found to have violated the
policy. Upon receipt of the academic dishonesty referral, the assistant
to the vice president for Student Affairs will review the allegation
and determine if the student has a previous violation. If the student
has no previous violation, the assistant to the vice president for
Student Affairs will notify the student of the allegation and instruct
him/her to follow the adjudication procedures outlined in this section
(C.3). If the student does have a previous violation, the assistant to
the vice president for Student Affairs will instruct the student to
follow adjudication procedures outlined under the Multiple
Violations section (D.3) of this policy.
c. Within five class days of receiving notification of the allegation (first
offense), the student must request that the department chair schedule
a hearing to review the facts surrounding the allegation and
recommended sanctions if the student is found to have committed a
violation. This hearing will involve the student, the chair, and the
faculty member; the chair may invite others if mutually agreeable.
Guidelines for academic dishonesty hearings parallel those for
judicial hearings found in the IUPjudicial system policy. Refer to
"General Guidelines for Judicial Hearings" in the judicial system
information in The Student Handbook.
d. If the student fails to contact the department chair within the five
class days to schedule the hearing, the sanction recommended by the
person filing the referral will automatically be imposed. If the
student fails to appear when a hearing has been scheduled, the
hearing will be held in the student's absence and the department
chair will render a decision based upon factual information presented
by the faculty member.
e. Following the hearing, the department chair will render a decision
based on the information presented at the hearing. Within five class
days of the hearing, the department chair will forward a written
report summarizing the hearing that includes the outcome, the factual
basis for the decisions reached, the sanction! s)to be issued, and
appeal procedures. Copies of this report will be sent to the student,
the faculty member or administrator, and the assistant to the vice
president for Student Affairs. The chair will retain a copy for
departmental files.
f. In the event that a chairperson cannot or will not fulfill the above
role, or in the event that the person filing the referral is an
administrator or department chair, the assistant to the vice president
for Student Affairs will determine the appropriate individual to fulfill
the chair's roie and inform the student.
D. Sanctions
1 . The following sanctions may be agreed upon by the student and
faculty member or administrator through informal resolution or
documented agreement. They may also be imposed by the

president for Student Affairs using procedures outlined in the
Appeals section (E.l) of this policy. The vice president may deny
or uphold the appeal, or direct the appeal to be heard by a special
interim board or the University Judicial Board.
E. Appeals
Cases of academic dishonesty that are resolved through informal
resolution or documented agreement cannot be appealed, as the facts of
the case, the decision, and sanction(s) have been agreed to by the student
and the individual making the charge. These appeal procedures apply to
cases resolved through formal adjudication.
1 . If after receiving the department chair's report on the outcome of the
hearing, the student disagrees either with the decision, the sanction,
or both, he/she may appeal to the vice president for Student Affairs
within five class days of receiving the report. This appeal must be in
writing and must describe in detail the grounds for the appeal. These
reasons may include the following:
a. Denial of a fair and reasonable hearing
b. New evidence (applies when there is an acceptable reason why
the information was not presented at the original hearing)
c. Excessively harsh sanctions
2. If the student does not appeal within the five-class-day period, the
recommended sanction will be automatically imposed. The faculty
member may also appeal a decision of the department chair. The
appeal procedures are the same as those previously outlined for
the student.
3. The vice president for Student Affairs may deny or uphold the appeal
or direct the appeal to be heard by a hearing officer, a special interim
board, or the University Judicial Board. The hearing officer or the
UJB may either accept, modify, or reduce the recommended
sanction.
4. Within five class days of the appeal hearing, the hearing officer/UJB
must submit a written report of the decision to the student, faculty
member, department chair, and the vice president for Student Affairs.
The decision of the hearing officer/UJB is deemed final and will be
implemented by the vice president for Student Affairs.
5. Appeals to the sanction of expulsion must be submitted to the Office
of the President. If necessary, the president will consult with legal
counsel in these cases.
F. Records and Recordkeeping
1. Records of Informal Resolution
Although no official forms are filed at this level of resolution, it is
strongly recommended that a faculty member or administrator who
reaches an informal agreement with a student puts the agreement in
writing, gives the student a copy, and keeps a copy for his/her hi
2. Records of Resolution by Documented Agreement
The records of documented agreement resolution I nuns are
maintained by the assistant to the vice president for Student Allans.
They are not considered formal disciplinary records until and unless
the student is found in violation of this policy a second time. They
are internal university records used for monitoring students foi
multiple violations only. If a second documented agreement form is
filed or a student is found in violation of the policy through formal
adjudication, the student will then have a formal disciplinary record
which includes records of both violations. This formal record is
maintained according to the IUP judicial system recordkeeping
policies.
3. Records of Formal Adjudication
Records of academic dishonesty cases resolved through formal
adjudication are kept on file in the Office of the Assistant to the Vice
President for Student Affairs. They are maintained as formal
disciplinary records in accordance with IUP judicial system
recordkeeping policies.
G. Operational Notes
1 . In cases where a violation is alleged at or near the end of the
semester and resolution by informal resolution, documented
agreement, or formal adjudication cannot be completed before grades
are submitted, the faculty member should submit a grade of
"Incomplete" (I) for the student. The "1" grade will remain on the
student's record until the case has been resolved. Once the case has
been resolved, the "I" grade will be replaced with the appropriate
grade.
2. If the violation is alleged during the semester when classes are in
session, the accused student should continue attending all classes and
continue to complete course requirements during the resolution of
the academic dishonesty case.
3. The assistant to the vice president for Student Affairs may extend
any deadline which cannot be met for what he/she deems legitimate
reason.
The various forms described in this policy are available from the assistant to
the vice president for Student Affairs, 215A Sutton Hall, deans' offices, or
from the department chairs. Questions concerning the Academic Integrity
Policy can be directed to the assistant to the vice president for Student
Affairs, 215A Sutton Hall.
Approved University Senate 5/5/92
Night Exam Policy
All tests, examinations, and quizzes should normally be administered during
the prescribed course hours. Only in this way can the essential contracted
nature of the time arrangements between student and professor be preserved
and, at the same time, proper provisions be made for the many
extracurricular and personal activities involving students and faculty alike.
Deviations to allow night exams for valid educational reasons, within the
guidelines listed below, must be approved by the department and the dean.
Guidelines:
1. Night exams can only be scheduled on Monday through Thursday
evenings within the 6:00 p.m.- 10:00 p.m. time period.
2. Appropriate physical facilities must be arranged for in advance without
encroachment upon other authorized university functions.
3. If night exams are to be given, the day of the week on which they will be
given must be listed in the Undergraduate Course Schedule at the time of
preregistration.
4. No night exam can take precedence over a regularly scheduled class.
5. Arrangements for nonpunitive make-up exams at a mutually agreeable
time must be available for students that cannot attend the night exam.
6. For each hour of night exams, an hour of regularly scheduled class time
will be cancelled. Such cancellations are prohibited during any period of
two class days immediately preceding and any period of two class days
immediately following holiday and/or vacation (recess) periods and
semester terminations, appearing in the published academic calendar.

University Policy on Semester Course Syllabi
Each faculty member shall prepare and distribute, without charge, to each
student within one week of the first meeting of the class a Semester Course
Syllabus. The semester course syllabus will be consistent w ith course content
and catalog description, which was approved by the Curriculum Committee of
the University Senate for the initial course offering or revision.
The semester course syllabus is a vehicle of communication to promote
sludent academic planning and to avoid misunderstandings of course plan
and requirements.
It is recommended that each syllabus include:
a. the faculty member's name, office location, telephone number, and
office hours
b. an outline of the course content, objectives, and prerequisites, as
appropriate
c. information about the required textbook(s) with title, author, and
edition, and any other required materials
d. information on the determination of grades, including the weight,
types and scheduling of evaluations, other planned requirements, and
expectation for class participation
e. statement of policies and/or penalties for make-up exams and late
submission of assignments
IUP Student Grade Appeal Policy
Grade Review Policy
II a student disagrees with the evaluation of his/her work by the instructor
but has no basis for a charge of "discrimination" or "capricious evaluation."
the student should discuss the matter directly with the instructor, and if
unsatisfied, with the department chairperson, and if still unsatisfied, with the
dean of the college in which the course was offered. In such cases, the
decision of the instructor shall be final.
If a student believes that an improper grade has been assigned, an appeal
may be filed on the following grounds:
1 . Discrimination: On the basis of race, religion, national origin, sex. age,
ancestry, handicapped status, affectional or lifestyle preference, or
political affiliation.
2. Capricious Evaluation: Significant and unwarranted deviation from
grading procedures and course outlines set at the beginning of the course
(ordinarily in a written statement during the first week of the course) or
grade assigned arbitrarily on the basis of whim or impulse. The student
may not claim capriciousness if he or she disagrees with the subjective
professional evaluation of the instructor.
Procedures of Appeal
Level I: Informal Resolution
Every effort should be made to resolve the disagreement at Level I. The
student must first seek a resolution to the disagreement with the instructor
either in person or in writing. If the student is not satisfied with the results,
the student must then speak with the chairperson of the department that
offers the course. If still unsatisfied, the student must discuss the matter with
the dean of the college in which the course is offered. A Student Congress
member may accompany and advise the student during the Level I
procedures. Only after all attempts for resolution at Level I have been
exhausted may the student initiate Level II.
Level II: Appeal Screening
A. Composition: Each year there shall be appointed a Grade Appeals
Committee to determine the existence of the substantive basis for appeal.
The committee will be composed of seven voting members: three faculty
members appointed by APSCUF. three members elected by and from the
Senate Academic Committee (one faculty, one administrator, one
student), and one student appointed by the Student Congress. A quorum
consists of a majority of the committee. To take action, a majority of
those present must be faculty.
B. Procedure to Initiate Appeal: To initiate Level II of the appeal, the
student must file an appeal form with the Provost's Office. This form
must be filed within sixty (60) calendar days of the beginning of the
semester immediately following the semester in which the grade was
received. The Provost's Office may extend the sixty-day limit only in
unusual circumstances when equity demands it and when the student's
own procrastination or misunderstanding did not substantially contribute
to (he delay. |Note: Grade appeals will not generally be processed during
the summer. Therefore, the appeal of any grade received in the spring or
summer sessions normally will be processed in the fall. A review will be
scheduled in the summer only when the student's academic eligibility is
jeopardized by the grade in question or when the student is a graduating
senior.] The Provost's Office will notify the appropriate dean,
department chairperson, faculty member, and the Student Congress
president of the student's initiation of the Level II process.
C. Procedure to Process Appeal: The student will be expected to submit
w ntten documentation of his/her complaint and the faculty member will
be expected to submit in writing the course grading procedure and any
other pertinent information. Appeals based on discrimination will be
reviewed according to current standards of nondiscriminatory action.
Appeals based on capriciousness will be reviewed in light of the faculty
member's announced evaluation and grading system. The committee will
review the materials to deny or confirm appeal continuance. Denial of
appeal continuance must be by a negative vote of four members of the
committee. This committee will inform the Provost's Office of its
findings. Within five (5) class days of the receipt of the committee's
report, the provost or designee will notify the student and the faculty
member of the findings. If the basis for appeal is determined to be
substantive, the provost or designee will schedule a Grade Review Panel
w ithin fifteen (15) class days to be convened prior to the conclusion of
the semester.
Level III: Appeal Review
A. Composition: The Grade Review Panel will consist of five voting
members: one academic dean or associate dean and four faculty
members. Four-fifths of the voting members will be a quorum. The
Student Congress Academic Affairs Committee chairperson may advise
as requested by the student. The affirmative action officer will advise in
appeals based on discrimination. The panel will be constituted from the
Grade Review Pool by random selection. The panel chairperson will be
elected by and from the panel before each review.
B. Membership: The Grade Review Pool will be established in the spring
term to serve for the following academic year. The pool and rotational
order within the pool will be established by the Provost's Office. A pool
of three deans or associate deans and twelve full-time faculty members
will be maintained. In establishing the membership for each review
panel, prior to each review the names of those designated as primary
members of the specific panel and available as alternates will be
supplied to all parties involved. A panel member may request (to the
provost or designee) disqualification due to a conflict of interest. The
student and the faculty member may eliminate names in proportion to
the composition of the panel. Each may eliminate only one dean/
associate dean and four faculty. The instructor and the student will be
supplied a list of all primary and secondary pool members. The
opportunity to disqualify panel members will take place only once.
Resulting vacancies will be filled from the appropriate pool of alternates
so that the panel will be composed of one dean/associate dean and four
faculty. If through self-disqualification and challenges a panel cannot be
constituted from the pool, then the Office of the Provost will supplement
the pool using appropriate random selection methods.
C. Procedure:
1 . Both the student and the instructor will have the right to appear
before the panel, present witnesses, and offer evidence. In addition to
those specified in Level III, Section A, each may also bring one
observer, with whom they may consult but who may not participate
in the review.
2. The panel shall determine its rules of order for internal operation.
After hearing the evidence brought forth, the panel will privately
deliberate and render a decision. If the grade appeal is upheld, the
panel will constitute a committee of three appropriate faculty
(ordinarily faculty from the department in which the cour e is
offered) who will review the student's work and determine the
appropriate grade or suitable remedy. The panel will incorporate this
information in the determination which it then forwards to the
Provost's Office for implementation. (The panel may recommend or
the department may deem it appropriate that the grades of other
students in the class also be reviewed.)
3. The written report sent to the Provost's Office will stale whether the
student's appeal is upheld or denied; if upheld, the committee's

evaluation and remedy will he included. All documents supporting
the report will he sealed and kepi onl) as long as necessary to insure
ihe appropriate action is taken (normally one year) before being
destroyed or returned to the indi\ idual presenting the evidence
Implementation
A. Faculty Compensation: II' a Review Panel (hearing) is scheduled al a
time in the summer when any faculty member involved is not under
contract, the faculty member will he compensated under terms mutually
agreed upon at Meet-and-Discuss.
B. Continuing Rights: This appeal does not supplant any legal rights
afforded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and/or the Government
of the United States. Nothing in this policy abrogates or modifies any
provisions of or rights under the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
C. Intended Purpose: The grade appeal procedures are designed simply as a
means to resolve differences between students and faculty related to
grading. Under no circumstances should the results of a grade appeal be
used for disciplinary action or personnel.
D. * Amendment: Amendments may be implemented upon concurrence by
University Senate. APSCUF Representative Council, and Meet-
and-Discuss.
*Note: In the amendment process above, specification of University Senate
implies the Council of Trustees' role in approving Senate actions and
recognizes the Council of Trustees' final action to change policy.
This policy replaces the policy originally effective at the beginning of the
Spring Semester, 1986. Approved: University Senate, May 2, 1989; Council
of Trustees, May 19, 1989.
Computer Software Policy
It is the policy of 1UP that contractually protected and/or copyrighted
computer software shall not be improperly copied, distributed, or used by its
employees, students, or affiliated organizations. It is the responsibility of
each member of the university community to adhere to this policy and to
enforce it wit.i regard to those they supervise. If any member of the
community has a question regarding the propriety of using software, s/he is
responsible for contacting his/her supervisor for direction. The supervisor
may in turn refer the questions to the director of Academic Computing of the
ISCC for a decision on what constitutes proper use. The full text of the
policy adopted by University Senate and Council of Trustees in May, 1988,
is available in the computer laboratories and from the director of
Academic Computing.
38 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
Requirements for Graduation
Undergraduate students at IUP may pursue programs of study in any one of
the six undergraduate colleges: the Eberly College of Business, the College
of Education, the College of Fine Arts, the College of Health and Human
Services, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, or the College of
Natural Sciences and Mathematics. A student may earn the degree of
Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Fine Arts, or the
Bachelor of Science in Education. To do so, the student must satisfy all of
the degree requirements, which fall into three categories: 1) university
requirements; 2) college requirements; 3) department requirements.
Requirements of the latter two categories may be found under the college
and the department in which the student is pursuing a program of study.
University requirements for graduation in all curriculums consist of Liberal
Studies requirements, residency requirements, and the semester hour and
cumulative quality-point average requirements.
Exception: Students who enrolled in a degree program prior to June 1 . 1989,
are not subject to Liberal Studies requirements; they will complete degree
requirements including the Genera] Education components outlined in
earlier editions of the Undergraduate Catalog. Transfer students entering the
university between June 1, 1989. and June 1, 1991 were assigned either to
General Education or Liberal Studies at the time their transcripts were
evaluated. All transfer students admitted after June 1, 1991. are subject to
the Liberal Studies requirements.
Academic Life during the Freshman Year
During the Summer Orientation (Phase II, as described in the section on
Orientation), students meet with faculty advisers to plan a program of
courses for their first year. This careful planning considers students'
individual preferences, the results of placement testing, and degree
program requirements.
With a typical freshman academic schedule, students progress both in the
universitywide Liberal Studies program and in their intended majors.
Three Liberal Studies courses are designed especially for freshmen, and all
students are expected to complete these courses during their first year. The
three are EN101: College Writing, HI195: History: The Modem Era. and
one course from a list of Fine Arts selections.
College Writing enhances skills in written expression that are essential to
success at the university. History: The Modem Era builds critical thinking
skills and provides a foundation of knowledge for subsequent courses.
Whichever fine arts course is chosen encourages an appreciative
participation in campus cultural life.
Professors teaching these courses work cooperatively with each other and
with Student Affairs Division staff to integrate class work with campus
lectures and arts events. Study skills development and tutoring services are
also provided as necessary.
Semester Hour and Cumulative Quality-Point Average
Requirement
Each student must complete a minimum of 124 semester hours to graduate,
including 53 hours in Liberal Studies (all on a passing basis), and must have
a 2.0 ("C" grade) cumulative quality-point average and a 2.0 ("C") average
in his/her major and/or minor field.
Liberal Studies
All students must fulfill the requirements of the university's Liberal Studies
program. This involves a minimum of 53 semester hours divided among
Learning Skills, Knowledge Areas, and Synthesis. The number of semester
hours may rise slightly depending on student choices. Different colleges and
sometimes departments within colleges may have specific variations as to
how these Liberal Studies requirements are to be met.
Liberal Studies provides the broad vision and understanding that enable
individuals to enjoy full, rich lives and to play constructive roles in their
communities. The goals for Liberal Studies include ( 1 ) the development of
important modes of thinking and intellectual skills: critical thinking,
literacy, understanding numerical data, historical consciousness, scientific
inquiry, ethical perception, and aesthetic sensitivity; (2) the acquisition of a
body of knowledge or understanding essential to an educated person; and (3)
an understanding of the physical, as well as the intellectual, nature of
human beings.
Liberal Studies Requirements
Note: Specific courses may be required or recommended by colleges or
major departments; see degree program outlines for specifications.
Additional courses may be added to some categories during the next
academic year; an updated listing is printed in each semester's schedule of
undergraduate course offerings.

which involve extensive use ol writing as pari of the learning experience,
are identified » ith a /W/ in each semester's Schedule of Undergraduate
Course Offei in
Timely Completion of Degree Requirements
The minimum total semester hour requirement for a baccalaureate degree at
UP is 124. Students who enroll in degree programs that require more than
124. or who seek the added benefit of a double major, minor, or specialized
program, or who change majors should plan their sequence of courses
carefully with an adviser. Such students should be alert to the possibility that
they may need to can) a heavier than average class load in order to
complete the degree in eight semesters. In some situations, summer work or
an extra semester may be necessary. The need to enroll in remedial or other
preparatory coursework or to repeat courses may also affect progress toward
a degree.
Residency Requirement
All students receiving an initial IUP baccalaureate degree are required to
complete forty-five semester hours in IUP courses. At least fifteen semester
hours in IUP courses are required to fulfill an IUP major and a minimum of
six semester hours for a minor. Normally, the student will complete the final
thirty semester hours in residence in IUP courses, unless specific approval
has been secured from the dean of the student's college. Exception to the
above requirements for courses to be earned in residence at IUP may be
granted by the college deans based upon the appropriateness and academic
integrity of the courses in question. This approval is generally sought as part
of the process for prior approval of off-campus coursework.
Pre-Approval for Transfer Coursework
Students enrolled at IUP who wish to take coursework at another institution
(either during the summer or regular semesters) must complete an
Application for Coursework Outside IUP prior to taking the course(s). Only
the credits from the course(s) transfer, not the grade: therefore, students
cannot use outside coursework for IUP's repeat policy. Only the credits for
which students receive the grade of A. B. or C will transfer. If P/F is the
only grading option available, there must be a narrative evaluation from the
faculty member certifying that the w ork was of C level or better. No more
than sixty credits total may be earned at a junior or community college for
application toward an IUP degree. If the courses are being taken within the
student's last thirty credits, the courses must be taken at IUP unless the
student's residency requirement is waived by the college dean. Courses
without prior approval are taken at the risk of the student; there is no
obligation on the part of any officer of this university to accept or transfer
such credit.
Forms for approval of off-campus coursework are available in the Office of
Transfer Credit Evaluation/Academic Information Systems. Full directions
on the form outline the steps involving the transfer evaluation, student's
adviser, and college dean, or designee. After completing off-campus
coursework. students should have the institution at which the work was
taken send a final official transcript directly to Transfer Evaluation Services,
347 Sutton Hall. IUP. Indiana, PA 15705. Copies of transcripts issued to or
hand carried by students will not be accepted.
Eligibility and Application for Graduation
Commencement ceremonies are in May at IUP at the conclusion of the
spring semester and in December at the conclusion of the fall semester. Only
students who have completed all requirements for graduation by the end of
the semester are eligible to participate in the commencement exercises.
Students who have withdrawn from courses or have elected to take
incompletes or have failed courses during the semester and thus have not
met the requirements for graduation may not participate in commencement
exercises until those requirements have been fulfilled. Students completing
requirements in August or December are included on the graduation list for
the December graduation.
Students are responsible for knowing and fulfilling the requirements for
graduation in their degree program. It is the student's responsibility to
complete a form to apply for graduation and submit it to the office of the
dean of his/tier college early in the term prior to graduation.
Certification for graduation is not final until approved bj the dean of the
college in which the student is enrolled. Diplomas will not be issued until all
bills and obligations have been satisfied, including the degree fee. and final
certification for graduation has been issued by the student's college dean.
Non-Native Students: English Language Requirements
Non-native students of English, either international students or those from
the U.S. for whom English is not their first learned language, are required to
take an ESL Screening/Placement Test prior to registration in the first
semester attending IUP. The test is administered prior to registration in both
the fall and spring semesters. Results of this test are used to determine for
which English course (EN100/ESL. HMO 1 ESL. EN202/ESL. EN121/ESL)
a newly admitted non-native student must register. In addition, any currently
enrolled non-native student can take the regularly scheduled test to
determine registration for non-ESL English courses. For further information,
contact Dr. Dan Tannacito. 212 EicherHall: telephone (412)357-7081.
Undergraduate Catalog Applicability Time Frame
The university reserves the right to modify degree requirements through
established governance channels. However, the general policy has been
established that the follow ing time frame regulations form the basis for
application of the university's undergraduate degree requirements:
1. A student who has been in continuous registration (fall and spring
semesters) or who has interruption(s) of less than two calendar years is
governed by the requirements outlined in the catalog in effect at the time
of entrance into a degree program (major).
a. A student who changes major will be governed by the requirements
of the major and/or college at the time of acceptance into the new
major, without change of Liberal Studies requirements except as
specified by the new major.
b. A student entering through the nondegree program is governed by
the requirements in effect at the time degree candidacy is awarded.
c. A part-time student may be covered by these provisions of
continuous registration to a maximum of ten years.
2. A student whose education is interrupted by two or more calendar years
will be governed by the requirements in effect at the time of readmission
to the university. The readmission may carry specific requirements/
substitutions necessary to provide for program integrity.
3. The applicability of coursework completed more than ten years prior to
the degree date is subject to review by the dean or designee for
evaluation on a course-by-course basis.
Program Changes
To insure their quality and relevance, academic programs at IUP are subject
to review and change by duly appointed and responsible university groups.
Because of this, the university recognizes that provisions must be made to
prevent hardship to students already enrolled in programs if changes later
occur in specific or general program requirements. Students affected by
changes in programs, policies, and regulations are therefore given the option
of following those requirements that are in effect when the student was first
enrolled in the program or those in effect at the time of expected graduation.
The student cannot, of course, combine chosen elements of the two. Should
a question of rule interpretation arise w ith respect to changes, the student,
the student's adviser, or both should petition the college dean for a decision
about which requirements apply.

IUP is an authorized Senior Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC) unit.
The ROTC program offers to both men and women the opportunity to learn
and practice leadership and managerial techniques that will prove beneficial
to all life's future endeavors; to obtain credits which count toward
graduation; and, to those who choose to complete the total program, to
obtain a commission as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army.
Regular ROTC classes for two semesters satisfy the mandatory Liberal
Studies requirement for Health and Wellness classes.
Enrollment
The program is divided into two phases: the Basic Course (freshman and
sophomore years) and the Advanced Course (junior and senior years).
Regular Basic Course
The first two years of military science provide a background of the historical
role of military forces as well as current national military objectives. In
addition, basic leadership is developed and certain skills are taught, such as
adventure training, survival training, map reading, self-defense, rappelling,
and marksmanship. Enrollment in any of the freshman- or sophomore-level
ROTC courses (MS101. 102, 203, or 204) in no way obligates or commits
the student to any military service or any further ROTC courses. These
courses are offered on the same basis as other academic courses at IUP with
the privilege of withdrawing at any time.
Advanced Course
The last two years constitute the Advanced Course of instruction for men
and women who desire a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army of
the United States (either the Army Reserve, National Guard, or, for selected
students, the Regular Army). This phase is composed of studies in advanced
leadership and management, tactics, military law, and psychological,
physiological, and social factors which affect human behavior. Modem
instructional and training techniques are also covered. Practical application
is the rule, and students have the opportunity to practice and polish their
skills. Participation in the Advanced Course will earn the student
approximately $2,500, between $100-a-month subsistence and pay for
summer camp ($1,800 is not taxable). For continuation in ROTC during the
junior and senior years, the student must have a 2.0 grade-point average in
the student's academic area, have successfully completed requirements for
the ROTC Basic Course, pass a physical examination, and be accepted by
the Professor of Military Science (PMS). The U.S. Army requirements for
commissioning include a course in written communications and in human
behavior. IUP students normally fulfill these requirements with EN101 and
EN202 and with a course in psychology, anthropology, sociology, or certain
major courses in human behavior. Advanced course students must agree in
writing to complete the junior and senior years, since they will receive
$100-a-month subsistence during these academic years.
Requirements for Enrollment
The general requirements for enrollment in Advanced ROTC are that the
student be accepted by the university as a regular enrolled student, be a
citizen of the United States, be physically qualified, and be not less than
seventeen years of age but less than thirty at anticipated graduation date.
Veterans and Junior ROTC graduates may receive exemption from the
ROTC Basic Course as approved by the Professor of Military Science.
Academic Affairs Division Areas — 43
What ROTC Offers
Equipment, ROTC textbooks, and uniforms are issued without cost to
enrolled students.
Credit is given for successful completion of the three-semesler-hour Health
and Wellness Liberal Studies requirement for graduation.
Students formally enrolled in the Advanced Course (MS305, 306, 407, and
408) arc paid a subsistence allowance ($100 a month) during the academic
year.
Training is given in other practical skills such as self-defense, adventure
training, rappelling, marksmanship, orienteering, first aid techniques, and
watei safety.
Opportunities are available to examine the military profession in detail. This
includes the Regular Army. National Guard, and Army Reserve.
If students so desire and are accepted into the Advanced Course, they will
receive commissions as second lieutenants upon graduation from the
university and serve either three years' continuous active duty or two to
three months' active duty for training, with the remaining obligation served
in the Army Reserve or National Guard.

Women's Studies Program
Maureen C. McHugh, Director
The Women's Studies minor is designed to examine the status and
experiences of women from a multidisciplinary perspective. The courses use
a variety of methods and disciplinary perspectives to explore the impact of
gender on the experiences of the individual. Women's contributions to a
variety of fields and the historical, literary, and cultural images of women
are also addressed. Students are encouraged to challenge traditional theories
and research regarding women, and to develop a critical, multidisciplinary,
multicultural, and gendered view of the world. Courses taught within the
minor typically involve the students through innovative, experiential
classroom exercises and written assignments. Courses in Women's Studies
address social equity issues and encourage students to perceive themselves
as capable of transforming society.
A minor in women's studies indicates to the prospective employer an
awareness of and sensitivity to gender issues. This awareness may be needed
in the following positions: personnel specialist, affirmative action officer,
crisis intervention specialist, family and youth services provider, legal
advocate. A minor in women's studies can contribute to success in a variety
of fields including communication, counseling, criminology, education,
health, journalism, law, politics, psychology, and applied sociology.

Graduates holding the Bachelor of Science degree in Management or
Human Resource Management may find employment opportunities in both
the public and private sectors. In the 1990s opportunities are expected to be
especially plentiful in the services sector (e.g.. retailing, health care, food
services, finance, and transportation).
The Bachelor of Science in Management program offers three
concentrations: Industrial Management. General Management, and
Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management. Students in the
Industrial Management concentration are well grounded in both
management theory and application, but their focus is more upon
production/operations/industnal management. The concentration in General
Management is distinguished by its low level of structure or specificity. The
greater flexibility of this major can be useful to the student who wishes to
design a customized management specialization (e.g., fine arts
management!. Students taking the Entrepreneurship and Small Business
Management concentration will focus on creation and operation of a small
business. This concentration might also be desirable for graduates who
will be working in small businesses where the manager often must wear
several hats.
The Bachelor of Science in Human Resource Management prepares
individuals in both the theoretical and applied aspects of managing the
human resources function in organizations as a generalist or specialist.

The programs in teacher preparation at IUP enable the educator to become
responsible for the planning, organization, and evaluation of an instructional
program within the framework of a school setting. The teacher brings to this
setting a broad background of liberal studies, an acceptable degree of
mastery in a specialized field, and an understanding of the processes of
human growth and learning. In this role the teacher creates, manages, and
maintains an educational environment appropriate to the needs of the
students to be served. The teacher uses social, physical, cognitive, and
psychological data available on the individual student to plan, execute, and
evaluate the instructional program. The teacher assumes a high degree of
personal and professional responsibility in developing a philosophy of
education in the development and management of a plan for professional
growth. In support of this effort the college prepares school counselors,
school psychologists, elementary and secondary principals, and specialists
in communications media, early childhood, and special education.
The program of teacher preparation will provide an opportunity to gain
expertise in the following generic competencies:
1 . An understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of human
growth and development.
2. Knowledge of and experience with effective teaching-learning
techniques.
3. Utilization of learning resources and evaluation of teaching and learning
effectively.
4. Effective classroom management techniques and recognition and
response to differing behavioral patterns.
5. An understanding of the historical and philosophical bases of American
education and a belief that professional development is a lifelong process.
The teacher education programs at IUP are centered on the learner who. in
turn, is taught and guided by a faculty committed to the preparation of
competent teachers. Such teachers demonstrate professionalism, exhibit
humanism and adaptability, and practice and communicate critical thinking
skills and are excellent role models. These qualities are developed through
content that emphasizes a strong liberal studies component along with
appropriate professional courses and experiences. The programs are
delivered in a spirit of collaboration with the commitment of teachers in
the region.

Certification standards for commonwealth public school teachers are
established by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and the
Pennsylvania Board of Education. The academic adviser of the student's
major department must verify to the dean of the College of Education that
all academic requirements are met. The student's name is then placed on the
graduation list.
Applicants for certification must sign an attestment that they are a citizen of
the United States. Applicants who are not citizens must have an immigrant
visa that permits them to seek employment within the United States and
have declared their intent to become a citizen of the United States.
Applicants must also certify that they are not in the habit of using narcotic
drugs in any form or excessive amounts of intoxicating beverages, are not
currently under indictment, nor have been convicted of a criminal offense
(if so, supply full information with application. They attest that all
information in this application is correct.) A physical examination report
must also be submitted.
The Instructional I certificate is issued to the beginning teacher upon
graduation from the College of Education. All candidates for the
Instructional I certificate must successfully pass the National Teacher Exam,
general knowledge battery and selected specialty areas. IUP is a designated
test site; registration for the NTE may be completed through the University
Testing Services in the Career Services office. With the completion of an
additional twenty-four semester hours of collegiate and/or inservice courses
and successful teaching experience, students may acquire the Instructional II

The Department of Human Development and Environment Studies was
created by the merging of the Home Economics Education and Consumer
Services departments. The mission statement of the Department of Human
Development and Environmental Studies is to empower individuals to
support human and environmental needs, enabling them to perform
professionally in a changing, diverse technological and global society.
The department is composed of majors that are interdisciplinary and share
humanistic values. All majors have an applied research focus and stress
critical thinking, professional judgment, decision making, and synthesis
of information.
The Human Development and Environmental Studies Department offers
academic programs leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in the
following majors: Child Development/Family Relations. Consumer Affairs.
Fashion Merchandising, and Interior Design/Housing. The Home Economics
Education program leads to a Bachelor of Science in Education. These
majors prepare men and women for positions in business, the community,
and education. The majors also prepare students for graduate study in the
areas of interior design, housing, clothing, textiles, consumer economics,
community service, child development, family studies or education.
Faculty advisers work closely with students in planning and integrating the
academic program to meet the students' career goals and to supplement
classroom experiences. Internships are available and encouraged so students
can apply academic knowledge to actual situations. International study is
also available to provide an enriching cultural experience.
Consumer Affairs
The Consumer Affairs major prepares individuals for professional positions
in government, business, and the community. This option concentrates on
consumer economic behavior and consumer protection and their relationship
to the fair exchange and consumption of products and services. The
increased interest in consumer concerns has resulted in creating and
expanding positions for persons with an understanding of consumer needs,
business operations, and regulatory agencies. The interdisciplinary approach
provides the necessary knowledge and skills to fulfill the requirements of
such positions.
Community Services Track
Students can elect a community services track which offers a broad selection
of courses. Electives may be concentrated in specific areas. A concentration
of courses is elected in an outside field study such as sociology or
psychology. Graduates may be employed by the Extension Services or by
governmental and social agencies.
Fashion Merchandising
The Fashion Merchandising program provides course emphasis in apparel
production and distribution, textiles, apparel merchandising and promotion,
ready-to-wear analysis, quality control, historical costume, aesthetics, color
theory, and apparel construction. The Eberly College of Business
complements the Fashion Merchandising major by providing study in areas
such as accounting, marketing, consumer behavior, advertising, and
international marketing.
A cooperative program between IUP and the Fashion Institute of
Technology in New York City allows students to study fashion-accessories
design, manufacturing management, advertising design, advertising and
communication, textiles/surface design, and textile development and
marketing. Potential careers include store operations managers, buyers,
manufacturer's sales representatives, retail sales coordinators, merchandise
managers, fashion coordinators, sales promoters, personnel managers,
visual merchandisers, mall promotions managers, quality control
analysts, production assistants, color consultants, and personalized
shopping specialists.
Interior Design/Housing
The Interior Design program develops creative individuals who are able to
conceive, propose, and implement design solutions supportive of the needs
of people and the environment. Emphasis is placed on research, synthesis of
information, and creative problem solving. Space planning, design graphics,
lighting, color theory, historical and modern interiors, housing, and textiles
from the core of the program. Students develop an understanding of the
Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) and its relationship to barrier-free
design and a sensitivity to global environmental issues. Students tour a
variety of settings including offices, museums, factories, showrooms, retail
outlets, construction sites, and other design-related facilities. Supportive
courses are available in art and business. Potential careers include
commercial and residential design, housing, sales, historical preservation,

The College of Health and Human Services offers a curriculum leading to
the Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing. Students are admitted to the
nursing major as freshmen. Upon completion of the program, the graduate is
prepared to write the examination for licensure as a Registered Nurse in
Pennsylvania and other states. The program is fully accredited by the
National League for Nursing.
The nursing curriculum has as its primary goal the development of
competent professional nurses who are liberally educated, clinically
competent, and aware of their social responsibilities as members of the
health professions. The program is designed to provide a broad background
in general education, coupled with the specialized knowledge and skills
required for professional nursing. Additionally, the curriculum prepares the
nurse to practice within the professional code of nursing ethics, to function
effectively as a member of the health care professions, and to utilize
scientific principles in planning and implementing health care. The nursing
program emphasizes concepts in health promotion and maintenance and
restoration of wellness for people of all ages.
The first three semesters are devoted mainly to Liberal Studies and science
courses considered essential to the nursing major. The first clinical nursing
courses begin in the fourth semester. Clinical experiences in patient care are
provided in acute and long-term care facilities as well as community health
agencies throughout the last five semesters. Detailed information is
available in the department office regarding health screening requirements,
professional uniform requirements, liability insurance needs, and
transportation requirements. There is an option to complete the program in
five years.
Registered Nurse students are enrolled in the basic baccalaureate program in
nursing. They will have an upper-division major in Nursing and will fulfill
all degree requirements set by the university and the Nursing Department.
The Registered Nurse student may be awarded advanced standing, based on
prior work completed at an accredited college or university and on
exemption tests in nursing at a given point in the curriculum.

The College of Humanities
and Social Sciences
Brenda L. Carter, Dean
Charles E. Cullum, Associate Dean
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences provides a libera] education
as an essential foundation for student's preparation for a satisfying career. In
a dynamic society such as America's, a broad liberal education is a
necessity. The college maintains an emphasis on the fundamental
understanding and application of the basic principles of our cultural
heritage, combined with development of a thorough background of
knowledge in the student's specific area of interest. It seeks to promote in
students critical and objective thinking, analytical skill, and a keen
awareness of their responsibilities to society.
The college offers majors in
Anthropology
Criminology
Economics
English
Foreign Languages and
International Trade
French
Geography
German
Government and Public Service
History
Industrial and Labor
Relations
International Studies

Degrees
The departments of Anthropology, Criminology, Economics, English,
French. Geography and Regional Planning. German. History. Journalism.
Philosophy and Religious Studies. Political Science, Spanish and Classical
Languages, and Sociology offer work leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree.
The Bachelor of Science is offered in Regional Planning. In addition, the
Associate ol Arts degree is offered by the Criminology Department at the
Punxsutawney campus. Several departments offer Master of Arts or Master
ol Science degrees in the university's Graduate School. The English and
Criminology departments offer graduate programs leading to the Doctor ol
Philosophy degree. Information about these programs may be obtained from
the Graduate School.
Degree Requirements
In addition to the university's Liberal Studies requirements, all students
seeking a baccalaureate degree in the College of Humanities and Social
Sciences must complete the requirements for a major as established by the
department through which they wish to specialize. Statements of these
requirements, and for those minoring in a specific field, appear in the
department sections that follow. A double major or minor may encompass a
discipline outside as well as within the college but should be selected only
with adviser approval. As a general principle, there is considerable latitude
in course choice for Humanities and Social Sciences majors. The
intermediate-level foreign language requirement (a description follows)
applies without exception to all Humanities and Social Sciences four-year
degree programs.
College Language Requirements and Liberal Studies
Students in the colleges of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and of
Humanities and Social Sciences, who must pass the intermediate-level
language sequence as a college requirement for graduation, may choose any
of the languages offered. Self-instruction in Critical Languages fulfills the
Liberal Studies requirement only in the College of Humanities and Social
Sciences. The student with no previous foreign language study will take the
entry-level courses as prerequisites. The credits will not be applicable to any
college or departmental requirements but may be counted as free electives in
the total required for graduation. Generally, students should schedule
courses in accordance with their previous school or practical background.
Individual placement will be determined during placement testing and
registration prior to the first semester or summer session at IUP. Students
whose placement testing demonstrates possession of competence equivalent
to the intermediate level are considered to have fulfilled this requirement.
Any foreign student, registered as such at IUP, whose acquired native
language is other than English and who demonstrates an acceptable
proficiency in English, is exempt from the foreign language requirement for
a Humanities and Social Sciences degree if the department he/she is
majoring in does not require a specific language.
Critical Language Program
This is a self-instructional course for the study of languages not taught in the
classroom. The students are provided with texts, cassettes, and the services
of a native speaker. Professional teachers of language from other
universities will test performance. Interested students must contact the
coordinator before registration. Each course carries 3sh/credit.
The following languages may be available for study: Arabic, Chinese,
Dutch, Modem Greek. Modern Hebrew, Classical Hebrew, Hindi.
Hungarian. Italian. Japanese. Korean. Persian. Polish. Portuguese. Russian,
Serbo-Croatian, Swahili, Swedish, Tagalog. Thai, Turkish, and Vietnamese.
For information, contact Dr. Victor S. Drescher. Director of the Critical
Languages Program.
Foreign Study Programs
College majors may be interested in the various Foreign Study Programs
and Tours. Credits obtained through such arrangements normally are
applicable toward a Humanities and Social Sciences degree. Also of interest
are the college's credit-awarding programs at Valladolid (Spain), Duisburg
(Germany), and Nancy (France), as well as the Summer Study in Mexico
Program. For information, contact the chair of the appropriate language
department.
IUP at Valladolid: Through the Spanish and Classical Languages
Department, the university has offered a spring semester of study at the
University of Valladolid. Spain, for the past seventeen years. The
participants live in private homes. For details and brochures, contact the
Department of Spanish and Classical Languages.
76 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
IUP at Duisburg: IUP has a study abroad program at the University of
Duisburg. West Germany. The program is open to German majors and other
students having specific interest in a foreign study experience. Students
must register for FL100 and pay a foreign exchange fee for each semester in
the program. For further information, contact the German Department.
IUP at Nancy: IUP has established a study program with the University of
Nancy, France. Participants in the Nancy program must pay a foreign
exchange fee for each semester in the program. For details, contact the
French Department.
IUP at Mexico Summer Program: The Spanish and Classical Languages
Department sponsors a program of study in Spanish language in Mexico.
The program is located at Cuernavaca, and the cost of the program includes
transportation, complete room and board, insurance, and tuition. The student
may earn up to 6 hours of undergraduate or graduate credit. Internship
opportunities are available for students with fluency in Spanish.
Preprofessional Programs
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences offers a preprofessional
program in pre-law that prepares the student for application to a law school.
This minor is in the following Social Sciences, Humanities, and Business
departments: Pre-law in Business, Criminology, Economics, English,
History. Philosophy, or Political Science. All programs are designed to lead
to a baccalaureate degree and prepare students for law school.
Coursework in the pre-law program centers upon a carefully developed
interdisciplinary minor. For detailed guidance in pre-law, students should
consult the pre-law adviser in their major department.
Internship Programs
Humanities and Social Science departments have extensive internship
programs which allow students to engage in off -campus supervised work
experience for credit. IUP students have worked in Harrisburg as aides to
state legislators, with the Governor's Justice Commission and the Local
Government Commission, and with the Investigations Division,
Pennsylvania Department of Justice. Others have worked at correctional
institutions in Pittsburgh. Greensburg, and Warrendale, as peer group
counselors on the local campus, as an assistant to the Pennsylvania state
Republican chairperson, as on-site guides at the I nited Nations, as workers
on an Israeli kibbutz, and as student aides for the Department of Education,
Puerto Rico. Other students have worked in the Pittsburgh federal probation
office. Many students have worked with major political parties and
candidates at the local and state levels. At the county level, they have been
attached to the offices of the county planner, the Common Pleas Court,
coroner, treasurer, commissioners, and borough manager. Students have also
worked in the Washington offices of Pennsylvania congressmen and in many
federal and international organizations in Washington as well. Opportunities
for internships in other countries exist. For more information about specific
internship programs, students should consult with the chair of the
department in which the student is majoring.
Department of Anthropology
Miriam Chaiken, Chairperson; Conelly, Garcia, Koetje,
ki in km. in. P. Neusius, S. Neusius, Olin-Fahle; and
professor emerita Lanham
The Anthropology Department, which was a component of the Sociology/
Anthropology Department, became a separate department effective
July 1. 1993.
The Anthropology Department promotes awareness of anthropological
knowledge and methods and seeks to further the discipline and its
applications to the problems of the contemporary world. Through teaching,
research, and involvement in campus and community events and programs,
fhe anthropology faculty members contribute to the liberal education of IUP
students. The anthropology major itself equips students with knowledge
and skills needed for full participation in the global environment of the
21st century.
Anthropology emphasizes the study of human biological and cultural
diversity within its four subfields: sociocultural anthropology, biological
anthropology, linguistics, and archaeology. All students receive a solid
foundation in fhe discipline of anthropology and tailor their major fo
specific interests by following one of the three tracks.
The General Anthropology track continues the student's education in all of
the subfields of anthropology, preparing fhe student for a graduate education
in anthropology or in one of many related fields. The general frack also
provides a solid base for interdisciplinary study with a number of other
fields including biology, philosophy, political science, psychology, religious
studies, sociology, and Spanish.
The Archaeology track provides an emphasis on the study of culture through
the material remains of human behavior. This track provides training for
careers in the growing fields of cultural resource management and historic
preservation, with opportunities for employment in both government and the
private sector. A wide variety of internship opportunities provide hands-on
training in these areas.
The Applied Anthropology track provides students with a background in
anthropological method and theory, a cross-cultural perspective, and an
avenue fo translate this knowledge into action through internships and
research. Examples of career opportunities include program design,
implementation, and evaluation: policy analysis, administrative and
managerial development; assessment of current and future human needs;
and creation of strategies for social intervention and advocacy. In
consultation with an adviser, each student will develop his or her own
curriculum in order to build expertise in a specific topical area.
The departmenf also offers preparation for teaching social studies with a
concentration in anthropology. This program leads to a Bachelor of Science
in Education degree. With its emphasis on cross-cultural comparisons, the
realities of contemporary global cultures and cultural resource management,
anthropology provides a solid foundation for teaching social science at the
secondary level. Additionally the department offers a minor in anthropology.

The Department of Economics offers programs for majors who intend to
pursue careers as economists in education, government, industry, finance, or
commerce. The economist in today's world occupies an increasingly
important position, and great opportunity exists for qualified people.
Three different degree programs are available: a Bachelor of Arts in
Economics that prepares students for immediate employment or graduate
school; a pre-law Bachelor of Arts in Economics for students who wish to
attend law school; and the Bachelor of Science in Education that prepares
students to teach economics and other social sciences in secondary schools.
The Department of Economics offers concentrations in particular areas of
Economics. The concentrations are designed to equip students with the
education and skills that will enable them to obtain a position in government
or private business upon completion of the undergraduate program. The
concentrations available at present are
Competition and Public Policy
Economics of Government Affairs
International Economics
Labor Economics
Managerial Economics
Quantitative Economics
Detailed information regarding these concentrations may be obtained
from the department chairperson. Concentrations are not restricted to
Economics majors.
Either Basic Economics (EC 101) or Principles of Economics (EC121) will
count as a Liberal Studies Social Science course. However, EC101 is
intended for students who will take one and only one course in the field.
Students who anticipate taking more than one Economics course should
schedule EC121. EC101 will not count toward either a major or minor in
Economics and may not be taken after the successful completion of or in
concurrent registrations with any other Economics course.
Economics majors are encouraged to minor in one of the other Social
Sciences, in Business, or in Mathematics. A minor in Mathematics is
strongly recommended for those whose future may include graduate work
in Economics.
The Department of Economics also houses the Center for Economic
Education. The center is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization affiliated with
both the Pennsylvania Council on Economic Education (PCEE) and the
national Joint Council on Economic Education (JCEE). Its mission is to
upgrade the quality of economic education in kindergarten through twelfth
grade. The Center for Economic Education performs the following
functions: teacher training, consulting services, research, materials
development, and programs in economic education for adults. Drs. Nicholas
Karatjas and Arthur H. Martel are co-directors of the Center.

The program of studies in the English Department at IUP focuses on critical
thinking and effective reading and writing at all levels. English majors
The t 'allege of Humanities and Social Sciences — 81
stud\ .1 unit- varietj ol subjects ranging from litcraiy theory io practical
pedagogy, in an atmosphere that encourages and fosters a high degree of
professional commitment.
Course choices depend upon a student's career goals; three specialized
majors are offered, each of which undergoes regular revision to reflect the
needs of students and the structure ol a changing, competitive job market.
The English Education program oilers special training for prospective
secondary school teachers. IUP's consistent success in placing graduates
from this major in leaching positions suggests that the program is highly
regarded among educators outside the university.
Pre l.i« oilers specialized training lor those interested in a career in law or
some related field. The B.A. in English Humanities oilers a wide range of
courses in both traditional and nontraditional areas, which allows students to
tailor their programs to reflect their own interests and career plans.
The department offers the following degrees:
English Humanities
The English Department B.A. Humanities curriculum emphasizes several of
the traditional concerns of English literary study in nontraditional ways.
Specifically, the student satisfies the literature requirements by taking
preliminary courses which survey English and American literature and then
choosing particular courses from each of five categories, each category
reflecting a specific locus.
One category focuses upon literature as a "mode of awareness," a
philosophic emphasis, and offers such courses as "The Melaphonc
Perspective." "Symbol and Allegory," "The Oral Tradition." etc.
A second category views literature from an historical perspective and offers
such courses as "The Puritan Mind in England and America," "The
Renaissance." and "Romanticism."
A third category examines literature from a psychological point of view
through such courses as "Myth in Literature." "Hero and Anti-Hero," and
"The Literature of Alienation."
The fourth category deals with social considerations of perennial importance
and offers such courses as "War in Literature," "Poverty and Class," and
"Man in the Natural World."
The fifth category examines the literary output of a single major author:
Chaucer. Shakespeare, Milton, or a major American author or authors.
Courses from other areas (Critical. Creative and Technical Writing, Speech,
Film. Language, and Communication Studies) complement the literature
program selected by the student with his or her adviser's assistance.
Students, especially those for whom the B.A. is a terminal degree, are
advised to consider an internship in their junior or senior year.
Since the major can be completed with 36 hours of coursework. students
have 30-36 hours, depending on their foreign language status, of unspecified
coursework. They should plan carefully with their adviser as to how these
credits might best be earned, relevant to future goals.
Education Program
The English Department offers a program leading to the Bachelor of Science
Degree in English Education. Graduates are prepared to teach in middle,
junior high, and senior high schools. Job opportunities in these areas have
risen significantly in the past few years.
The English Education majors receive all of the usual professional training,
including practical experience in methods courses and student teaching, but
they are also graduated with a thorough preparation in the subject matter
areas of literature, language, and composition. Although most students
choosing an English Education major will be fitted both by training and
desire for the secondary school classroom, those who opt not to teach will
find that their speaking and writing skills can be useful to the media,
governmental services, and industries.
Program requirements are available at the English Department office.
Requirements include a portfolio of written work, faculty evaluations, and
an annual review of progress.
Pre-Law English
Successful lawyers possess excellent skills in writing and speaking and can
analyze a problem and explain its solution in clear, logical terms. Pre-Law
English prepares the student especially well in these areas and provides the
skills and knowledge needed to do well in the law school admissions
examination.
Most graduates have had successful internships in the offices of practicing
attorneys and government agencies, although an internship remains optional.
Students wishing an internship should contact the department director of
internships. Dr. Bob Curey. early in their career at IUP.
Minor in English Department
To minor in English, 15 semester hours in English are required beyond the
Liberal Studies requirement of EN 101, EN 121, and EN202.
Students who choose to minor in English should, if their major department
concurs, substitute EN210: Introduction to Literary Analysis for EN121.
English as a Second Language (ESL) Program
The English department's English as a Second Language curriculum
consists of a sequence of courses: EN150 ESL, ENI00 ESL, EN101 ESL.
EN121 ESL. and EN202 ESL. These courses satisfy the same university
and college requirements as their non-ESL equivalents: like the non-ESL
courses, they are designed to focus on skills needed for successful use of
language in an academic setting. However, the methodology and curriculum
for these courses are specially designed to meet the needs of non-native
speakers of English, and only non-native students are permitted to enroll in
sections designated "ESL." Placement of students in these sections is
determined by the results of the English Department ESL Placement Test,
given at the beginning of each term.
The Writing Center
The English Department maintains a writing center, which all students are
encouraged to use. Instructors may refer students to the center, or students
may seek help on their own. Call the English Department for information
on hours of operation.

advantage of an international study experience. For the French major, the
department has three degree programs: B.S. in Education (K-12), B.A. in
Liberal Arts, and the B.A. in French for International Trade. The latter
degree program provides solid undergraduate training preparatory to an
M.B.A. in International Marketing and Finance.
Students majoring in French will acquire proficiency in all phases of the
language and enter more deeply into the history, culture, and literature of
Francophone countries. They will also gain some knowledge of the
linguistic development of the language throughout the centuries. French
majors generally find employment in government work, librarianship.

choosing careers as teachers will find the close supervision and advanced
methodology offered by the department a distinct asset.
College Language Requirements
Students in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences and in the
departments of the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics must pass
the intermediate sequence of a foreign language (FR201-FR202 orFR203)
or demonstrate that they have somehow acquired the equivalent proficiency
level. Students from the other colleges may choose to take French (201 and
202 or the accelerated 203) to fulfill a Liberal Studies elective. Any student
who chooses French has an option to enroll in the traditional, three-credits-
per-semester courses or the accelerated, six-credit track.

Department of Geography and
Regional Planning
Susan E. Forbes, Chairperson; Begg, Bencloski,
Buckwalter, Miller, G. Sechrist, R. Sechrist, Shirey; and
professors emeriti Gault, Kulkarni, Payne, Tepper, Weber
Geography has several traditions of study. Two of the more important
traditions are the study of relationships between humans and environment or
the ecological tradition and the study of spatial organization, which involves
the way people use space on the earth's surface. In both traditions the focus
is on understanding regions of the world and the interactions within and
between them. Geographers make important contributions to the
understanding of all aspects of humankind's use of and impact on the
earth's surface.
Regional Planning involves preparing for the future. The demands and
effects of a large and growing population require that land use. resource use.
settlement patterns, transportation systems, and economic activity be
planned. Regional planning is concerned with the social, locational. and
environmental aspects of these planning decisions. In the 1990s, economic
development has become an important focus.
Geography and Regional Planning are in the same department because
"Planning is the art of which geography is the science." Employment
opportunities for geographers and regional planners are good. Students will
find a wide variety of positions in government, business, industry, planning,
and education available. Environmental and locational knowledge gained in
the department's programs provide skills needed in the job market. Students
interested in obtaining additional career information should visit the
departmental office in Room 10. Leonard Hall.
Three degree programs are offered by the department:
( 1 ) Bachelor of Arts in Geography
(21 Bachelor of Science in Regional Planning
(3) Bachelor of Science in Social Science Education with a concentration
in geography
A minor in geography is appropriate for majors in all other fields of the natural
and social sciences. Students of business also find this minor relevant. A minor
consists of a minimum of fifteen semester hours in geography. A student may
elect any combination of courses for the minor. The department suggests that
students take the core program if they anticipate doing graduate work in
geography. Students might also consider concentrating in one of the areas of the
field, such as physical/environmental, human/cultural, research/cartography/
GIS, or regional geography.
Geography and Regional Planning department resources include the
departmentwide LAN. Computer Cartography Lab with six 486 computers.
large-format digitizers, size E plotters, zoom transfer scope, color printers,
and Atlas*GIS, AUTOCAD, ARCCAD, and ERDAS software variably used
in many majors' classes. The Spatial Sciences Research Center (SSRC),
directed by Dr. Robert P. Sechrist, has production facilities for GIS database
development using the Intergraph microstation. ARC/Info, ARC CAD,
Atlas*GIS, Map Info and OzGIS. These packages run on the Center's VAX-
based network and ten 486s.
The Geography and Regional Planning Census Documents Library houses
the Pennsylvania State Data Center (PDSC) population and economic
census publications used for teaching, research, and planning in community
service and local and county governments. The department is also an
affiliate of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA ).
Geography Education: The department houses both the National Council
for Geographic Education (NCGE), which serves geography educators at all
levels with activities and programs that address geography learning and
instructional and research issues in North America, and the Pennsylvania
Geographic Alliance (PGA), which is supported by the Pennsylvania
Department of Education (PDE). PGA provides leadership and professional
development opportunities in geography teaching and learning in
Pennsylvania. Dr. Ruth Shirey is executive director of NCGE and one of
two PGA coordinators in Pennsylvania.
A strong internship program offers placement in conservation, land
management, human resource and planning agencies at the local, state, and
federal levels.

Department of German
Jacob U. Voelker, Chairperson; Brode, Ready, Sommer,
Sullivan
The Department of German offers three degree programs: the B.A. in
German, the B.A. in German for International Trade, and the B.S. in
Education in Secondary German Education.
While majoring in the German Department, students will acquire
proficiency in all phases of the language and develop an understanding and
appreciation of the history, culture, and literature of the German-speaking
countries. They will also gain knowledge of the linguistic development of
the language throughout the centuries. German majors may look forward to
rewarding careers in teaching, government, journalism, foreign trade,
tourism, business, and librarianship.
The degree program in German for International Trade provides an excellent
way to combine language proficiency and cultural awareness in German
with professional training in business. With this undergraduate background,
students may enter M.B.A. degree programs and pursue careers in
international business and trade. Study abroad for one or two semesters is
strongly urged and is an integral part of the program. Qualified students
may also choose to participate in internship programs with German-based
corporations and financial institutions.
College Language Requirements
Students in the departments of the College of Natural Sciences and
Mathematics and in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences must
pass the intermediate sequence of a foreign language (GM251 and GM252)
or demonstrate by the CLEP exam in German that they have acquired the
equivalent proficiency level. Students from the other colleges may elect to
take two courses in German at the intermediate (III/IV) level toward
fulfilling the requirement for Liberal Studies electives. Any student who
chooses German can meet the requirement through enrollment in the
traditional, the accelerated, or the intensive six-credit track, which provides
maximum opportunity for conversational practice in small groups under the
direction of trained assistants.
Study Abroad
The Department of German encourages all students who study German at
IUP to consider study abroad for one or two semesters. German majors are
strongly urged to study two semesters or one academic year at a German
university. To provide this opportunity at a relatively modest cost, the
university has arranged an exchange of students between Duisburg
University and IUP. By participating in this or other approved programs,
students can earn from twelve to fourteen hours per semester. For further
information regarding the cost and application procedures, contact the office
of the dean of the college.

Department of Industrial and Labor
Relations
James F. Byers, Chairperson; Gates, Gaylor, McPherson,
Morand, Sedwick
The Department of Industrial and Labor Relations offers a graduate program
within the College of Humanities and Social Sciences leading to the degree
of Master of Arts in Industrial and Labor Relations. The forty-two-
semester-hour program consists of a required core of twenty-seven semester
hours, including an elective thesis and elective course offerings totaling
fifteen semester hours. Internships are available and strongly encouraged.
The Industrial and Labor Relations program is multidisciplinary. combining
analytical and human relations skills with knowledge drawn from social
sciences and business disciplines. The degree is designed to prepare
professional industrial and labor relations practitioners in public and private
management, unions, neutral agencies, government agencies, and arbitration
panels. It has as a special emphasis labor relations in the public sector.
While the department does not offer coursework leading to an undergraduate
major or degree, it does offer several undergraduate courses which are open
to students of any major or college.
Department of Journalism
Patricia Heilman, Chairperson; DeGeorge, Jesick,
Mukasa, Russell, Truby; and professors emeriti Furgiuele,
Swauger
Students interested in a career in news-editorial or public relations fields,
with opportunities in such related areas as advertising, desktop publishing,
and marketing, should enjoy this innovative, flexible program. The
journalism major combines journalism elective courses, the student's choice
of a variety of courses from other university departments, plus internships
which provide on-the-job experience.
The IUP journalism major is flexible for the individual student, who
decides, with an adviser, what directions his or her education will take for a
mass communication career. The two sequences offered are News-Editorial
and Public Relations.
A student wishing to enter the program becomes a journalism major in the
College of Humanities and Social Sciences. Then, the student chooses an
individual program within a large group of elective journalism courses, plus
a much larger group of courses from various other areas of the university. A
student who completes the major graduates with a B.A. in journalism.
Because journalism itself covers all areas of life, the journalism major
covers many areas of study preparation. There are only four required
courses, so the student is free to mold the program to his/her own special
interests through both major and free electives.
The journalism major will use journalism courses to fulfill the minimum of
thirty hours required for the major. All journalism majors must complete the
intermediate sequence of a foreign language. This may be done in one of
three ways: by examination, by earning credit in third and fourth levels of a
foreign language, or by completing four levels of a new language. If the last
procedure is used, the two beginning foreign language courses ma\ be
applied as free electives to the total number of credits needed for graduation.
The Journalism Department offers an 18-credit minor designed to
complement any major. Three 3-credit courses are required: JN105:
Journalism and Mass media: JN102: Basic Journalistic Skills; and JN120:
Journalistic Writing. The remaining nine credits may be taken from the
following list of Journalism major courses: JN326. JN338. JN344. JN347,
JN375. and designated Special Topics courses. Internship credits do not
apply toward the 18-credit minor; however, a student in the minor program
may take an internship and apply the credits as free electives.
Course Sequence
The lournalism faculty offers the following operational policy for its course
sequence and prerequisites. The basic idea is for students to take Level I
courses prior to Level II courses, etc. We ask that special attention be given
to course prerequisites to avoid scheduling students without proper
experience into courses. We do retain flexibility of waiving sequence and
prerequisites in individual cases.
Level I
J\ 102 Basic Journalism Skills (required for all journalism majors)
JN105 Journalism and Mass Media (required for all journalism majors)
If they have the prerequisites and if enrollment permits,
nonmajors are welcome in JN105.
JN120 Journalistic Writing (for journalism minors and nonmajors)
JN220 Writing for the Print Media (required for all journalism majors)

Philosophy
The program in philosophy is designed to provide the student w ith a capacity
for thinking clearly, a critical attitude, and the ability to reason theoretically.
The major offers the background required for graduate work in philosophy.
Those whose primary interests are in other disciplines will find philosophy
courses which relate directly to their fields on a theoretical level. Both the
minor and double major are especially desirable for their reflective benefits
and because of the essentially interdisciplinary nature of philosophy.

Religious Studies
The Program in Religious Studies is designed to provide a balanced,
nonsectarian, cross-cultural approach leading to a better understanding of
the phenomenon of religion in human experience. It emphasizes an
interdisciplinary approach by a) requiring religion-related courses outside
Religious Studies and by b) encouraging the minor or a double major, rather
than a single major in Religious Studies.
The program is valuable for those planning careers in religious education,
religious journalism, or religious broadcasting. The program also provides
an excellent background for graduates planning to enter Catholic, Jewish, or
Protestant seminaries. Additionally. Religious Studies is a good
complement to majors in such fields as Anthropology. English, Fine Arts.
History, International Studies, Music, Philosophy. Political Science,
Psychology, and Sociology. Religious Studies is one significant way to
integrate course studies within the university curriculum.
In addition to the twenty-four semester hours of Religious Studies
courses in the major, six semester hours must be taken from a number of
courses offered by other departments which complement those offered in
Religious Studies. Opportunity for interdisciplinary and cross-cultural
study is implicit in the study of religious themes — and is required in the
Religious Studies Program at IUP. Revisions are pending in the
Religious Studies program.
Minor
The requirements for a Minor in Religious Studies are 15sh:
a) 12sh must be taken from the Religious Studies offerings, which
include certain required courses (see below).
b) 3sh must be taken outside the Religious Studies offering but in
"religion-related" courses.
Consult adviser in Religious Studies for choices.
Liberal Studies Offerings
The Religious Studies program"* Liberal Studies courses are all introductory
in nature; none presupposes any Religious Studies background. The student
may choose from the following: RS100: Introduction to Religion; RS250:
Understanding the Bible; RS290: Christianity.

Department of Political Science
David D. Chambers, Chairperson; Carone, Carranza,
Dejene, Hirt, Keene, Morris, Palmer, Piatt, Sitton; and
professors emeriti Chaszar, Lee, Smith
Political scientists focus upon political systems, including the effect of
environment on the system, inputs, the decision-making agencies which
render binding public policies, and system outputs. Approaches to the study
of government and politics include the normative approach, in which
philosophical attention centers on values by asking the question "What
ought to be?" and the behavioral approach, in which an attempt is made to
develop verifiable theories through scientific methods by asking the
questions "How" and "Why?"
Students majoring in political science have employment opportunities in
federal, state, and local governments and with private civic groups, interest
groups, and political groups. Students who go on to graduate work find
appointments at higher levels and in college teaching. Students graduating in
political science, as in any of the social sciences, are in demand by
employers in business and industry. Students completing the Political
Science Internship Program have experienced considerable success in
finding employment upon graduation. The political science major is also
especially suitable for the pre-law student.
Degrees offered by the political science department are the Bachelor of Arts
in Political Science, in Government and Public Service, and in Political
Science Pre-Law. An interdisciplinary major and a minor in International
Studies are sponsored by the Political Science Department. The department
also offers a minor in political science.

Department of Sociology
Herbert Hunter, Chairperson; Ackerman, Gondolf, Grant,
Holtz, Nowak, Rawleigh, Reynolds, Sanderson, Snyder;
and professor emeritus Newhill
The Sociology Department, which was a component of the Sociology/
Anthropology Department, became a separate department effective July 1,
1993.
The Sociology Department seeks to develop both the scientific and
humanistic foundations of sociology, to educate the wider community as to
the significance of sociological knowledge, to apply sociological knowledge
to current social problems, and to advance the profession by promoting the
welfare of individuals and society. The discipline of sociology focuses
primarily on the analysis of modem industrial societies by examining their
basic patterns of social organization, the various changes that occur within
these patterns, and the impact of the patterns on individual thought and
action. Students are prepared for employment in human service fields or for
graduate study in sociology or related fields.
Students majoring in sociology may select one of three tracks: general
sociology, clinical sociology, and applied social research. The general track
attempts to broadly educate those students who may wish to pursue graduate
training in sociology and make sociology a career and profession. Because
of its flexibility, it is also appropriate for students who want to pursue
double majors that would include such fields as psychology or criminology.
The general track gives students the broadest possible training in sociology.
Students graduating with majors in general sociology are frequently in
demand by employers in business, industry, and government.
The clinical track in sociology seeks to help students understand the causes
of many of the problems that plague modern societies, such as poverty,
racial discrimination, substance abuse, and domestic violence. It is designed
to provide students w ith the knowledge and skills necessary to become
practitioners in various human services (e.g., social work, juvenile
counseling, medical sociology, gerontology).
The applied social research track emphasizes the development of research
and assessment skills in students. Such skills are important in carrying out
program assessments, needs assessments, program development, and other
activities that focus on gathering, analyzing, and interpreting data important
for policymakers.
The department also prepares teachers for secondary school social studies
with a concentration in sociology. The program leads to the degree
Bachelor of Science in Education. With its emphasis on patterns of social
organization in modern industrialized societies, sociology provides a solid
foundation for teaching social science at the secondary level. Minors are
available in sociology and in applied social research.

Department of Spanish and Classical
Languages
Peter Broad, Chairperson; Carranza, Drescher, Foltz,
Glisan, Hernandez, Mendizabal, Miltz, Smith, Spieker,
Thornton, Young
The Department of Spanish and Classical Languages offers a varied
curriculum designed to provide not only basic language instruction in
Spanish, Greek, and Latin but also the more advanced competencies needed
by language specialists and students hoping to take advantage of an
international study experience. For the undergraduate Spanish major, the
department has three degree programs: the B.S. in Education, the B.A. in
Spanish, and the B.A. in Spanish for International Trade. The latter degree
program provides solid undergraduate degree training preparatory to an
M.B.A. in International Management.
Students majoring in Spanish will acquire proficiency in all phases of the
language and enter more deeply into the history, culture, and literature of
Spanish-speaking countries. Spanish majors generally find employment in
government work, librarianship, journalism, foreign trade, airlines, tourism,
business, and teaching. Students choosing careers as secondary school
teachers will find the close supervision and advanced methodology offered
by the department a distinct asset.
College Language Requirements
Students in the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and College of
Humanities and Social Sciences, who must pass an intermediate-level
language course requirement for graduation, may choose any one of the four
languages offered: French. German. Latin, and Spanish. Those choosing
the Spanish or Latin options will fulfill the requirement by successfully
completing SP 201 orSP211 or LA 201. Self-instruction in Critical
Languages fulfills the requirement only in the College of Humanities and
Social Sciences. The student with no previous foreign language study will
take SP101-102 or SP1 1 1 or LA101-102 as a prerequisite; the credits will
not be applicable to any college or department requirements (except for
students in HRIM who may fulfill their six-hour language requirement with
SP1 1 1 or 2 1 1 or with two four-hour courses) but may be counted as general
electives in the total required for graduation. Students in the other colleges
may choose to take one of the languages offered (at the intermediate level)
in fulfilling the requirements of Liberal Studies electives.
Students with previous Spanish study in high school will be placed into the
appropriate course levels by means of a written departmental exam,
administered prior to the beginning of the semester. In addition, as deemed
necessary in individual cases, students may be required to take an oral
proficiency test with one or more faculty members in the Spanish
department. Each student's individual requirements and the judgment of the
classroom instructors will also be considered in placement. No student
judged to be a native speaker of Spanish will be allowed to enroll in any
course below the 300 level.
Spanish for Elementary Education
A student in Elementary Education may elect a concentration of 19 semester
hours of Spanish, consisting of the following:
SP20I or equivalent 4sh
SP221 Intermediate Conversation 3sh
SP230 Intermediate Composition 3sh
SP260 Introduction to Literature 3sh
SP321 Advanced Conversation 3sh
SP404 Advanced Spanish Grammar 3sh
Study Abroad and Internships
Study Abroad: The university has established study abroad centers in both
Spain and Mexico. The program in Valladolid. Spain, is a second-semester-
only program, whereas the one in Mexico is a summer program. All majors
are encouraged to participate in study abroad; nonmajors are also accepted
into these programs. The eighteen hours in Spain or seven hours in Mexico
are applicable to a major or a minor in Spanish. Students interested in more
information should contact the Spanish department.
Internships: Internships in Spain and Mexico are available through the
department. All internships take place during the summer and vary from six
weeks to two months in duration. Internship is a credit-bearing course.
SP493, and all interns are enrolled in the first session of summer school.
Noncredit internships cannot be considered. Students enrolled in the Spanish
for International Trade program are strongly urged to do an internship in
order to gain credibility in the field of international business. Internships
are available in banking, government, social work, communications,
education, marketing, and many other fields. Arranging an internship
abroad takes considerable long-range planning, and anyone interested
should contact the Spanish Department at least three months in advance.

The College of Natural
Sciences and Mathematics
To be appointed, Dean
John N. Fox, Dean's Associate
One of the characteristics of the twentieth century is the marked change in
the relation of citizens to their environment. Space probes, orbiting
satellites, and productive research on the structure and synthesis of living
matter have brought to the forefront for reexamination such time-honored
queries as. "What is the nature of the universe?" or "Can people control
their natural environment?" or "How did life begin?" Correct answers to
these and other questions, coupled with proper application of this knowledge
for humankind's betterment, must be a significant part of the goal of
educated people everywhere.
The objectives of the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics are to
acquaint the student with the kinds of problems which lend themselves to
possible solutions through the use of science; to introduce different
scientific techniques through significant illustrative experiences; to give a
sense of perspective in the development of science; and to develop an
understanding of the basic community of all scientific disciplines.
Degrees
The departments of Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, and Physics
offer work leading to either a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts
degree, depending upon the specific course program pursued. The Bachelor
of Science degree is awarded for successful work in the departments of
Geoscience and Mathematics. The Bachelor of Arts degree is awarded by
the Department of Psychology. A Bachelor of Science degree is also
awarded in Natural Sciences.
Several departments in the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics
sponsor Master of Arts or Master of Science degrees in the university's
Graduate School. The Department of Psychology offers the Doctor of
Clinical Psychology degree. Information on these programs should be
obtained from the Graduate School.
Degree Requirements
In addition to the university's Liberal Studies requirements, all students
seeking a baccalaureate degree in the College of Natural Sciences and
Mathematics must complete the requirements for a major as established by
the department through which they wish to specialize. Statements of these
requirements and for minoring in a specific field appear in the department
sections that follow. A double major or minor may encompass a discipline
outside as well as within the college but should be selected only with
adviser approval. As a general principle, there is considerable latitude in
course choice for Natural Sciences and Mathematics majors; for specifically-
required courses, substitution in any program must have the written approval
of the student's department chairperson or the college dean.
The Foreign Language Requirement
Unless otherwise indicated, each department adheres to the following
foreign language requirement:
A candidate for a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree must
demonstrate a proficiency in a foreign language equivalent to that attained
upon completion of two years of college instruction in that language. This
requirement may be met by
a. successful completion of the intermediate level in a specific language; or
b. successful completion of an exemption or credit examination in lieu of
the above.
Any foreign student, registered as such at IUP, whose acquired native
language is other than English and who demonstrates an acceptable
proficiency in English, is exempt from the foreign language requirement for
a Natural Sciences and Mathematics degree if the department he/she is
majoring in does not require a specific language not thus covered.
Preprofessional Programs
The College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics offers programs for the
preparation of students for acceptance by a professional school: pre-medical
(including osteopathic medicine), and pre-veterinary medicine. In addition,
the college offers a major in the Natural Sciences for those students whose
goal is dentistry, pharmacy or pharmacology, optometry, podiatry,
chiropractic medicine, or physical therepy. All programs are so designed
that, should work at a professional school not ensue, the student may
earn an IUP baccalaureate degree, provided he/she has been faithful to
faculty advisement.
The preprofessional health programs in Natural Sciences and Mathematics
presuppose that the student has an excellent background in the high school
sciences and mathematics or will prove to be an excellent college student.
Students should identify their proposed field of study upon admission to IUP.
Cooperative Programs
IUP has been fortunate to enter into cooperative agreements with a number
of outstanding institutions to provide significant career opportunities to our
students. These formal agreements provide for accelerated graduate or
professional degree programs or carefully planned and coordinated
undergraduate programming with the cooperating institution. Programs are
intended to assure acceptance of properly qualified students by the
cooperating professional schools. Additional information concerning the
specific programs can be found under the appropriate academic department
in this catalog.
Engineering (See Department of Physics)
Drexel University - the program combines the opportunity for two years of
study at IUP with the remaining three years of study as part of the Drexel
plan of cooperative education. A student completing this program will
receive a bachelor's degree in engineering from Drexel University.
University of Pittsburgh - the program will allow the student to enroll at IUP
for the first three years of college and conclude degree work by enrolling in
an engineering program at the University of Pittsburgh for last two years.
The student will earn a B.S. degree in Natural Science from IUP and the
appropriate engineering degree from the University of Pittsburgh; see the
Natural Science section for IUP degree requirements.

accelerate the professional training of IUP students in the field of podiatry.
Optometry (See Natural Sciences)
The Pennsylvania College of Optometry program is designed to accelerate
the professional training of IUP students in the field of optometry.
Marine Science Consortium
College majors may be interested in the programs available through the
Marine Science Consortium. The Marine Science Consortium was
established in 1968 for the purpose of promoting teaching and research in
the marine sciences. The participating institutions include IUP and thirteen
other colleges and universities. Although no separate major in the Marine
Sciences exists, elective courses may be taken and credited toward
undergraduate curriculums in Biology. Geology. Geography, and Earth
Science. The Marine Science Consortium offers five three-week sessions
during the summer at the NASA-Wallops Island Station. Virginia. Normally,
several research cruises are offered each summer.
Students must register for credit and pay credit fees to a participating
institution. Room and board fees are paid to the consortium. Applications
for all summer sessions must be submitted to the institutional director by
April 1. Students must be accepted by the consortium before registering
at a participating institution. See section on Marine Science Consortium
for a listing of courses. For brochure, summer bulletin, and application
forms, contact Dr. Ray L. Winstead, Biology, or Dr. Darlene S.
Richardson, Geoscience, who are the IUP directors and assist students in
program planning.
Internship Programs
Several departments have established programs under which students
engage in an off -campus supervised work experience for credit.
For more information about specific Internship programs, students should
consult with the chairperson of the department in which the student is
majoring. Low-income students eligible for internships may receive federal-
state funding.

Degrees offered by the biology department are the Bachelor of Science in
Biology, the Bachelor of Arts in Biology, Bachelor of Science in
Environmental Health, and the Bachelor of Science in Education with a
Biology major. The first three degree programs are under the College of
Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and the fourth is under the College of
Education. The department also offers a Biology minor. All of these
programs are in revision for implementation in 1995-96 academic year.
The program leading to a B.S. in Biology is designed to provide
maximum depth in the sciences and mathematics with minimum elective
opportunity. Students who plan to attend graduate school or professional
schools such as those in human or veterinary medicine most often choose
this program ol studies.
The program leading to a B.A. in Biology is designed to reduce the
requirement in sciences and mathematics and allow for greater elective
choice from diverse fields. Unspecialized career plans can be best
accommodated with this program.
The Environmental Health program is a preparation for employment in
local, state, and federal agencies and industry. Between the junior and senior
year, each student should serve an internship with a governmental agency or
an industrial concern.
The program leading to the B.S. in Education with a Biology major is
designed to prepare for certification in public school teaching.
Note: The Biology Department cooperates in programs with Jefferson
Medical College. Duke University School of the Environment, and Marine
Science Consortium, Inc.
Duke Cooperative College Program in Forestry and
Environmental Studies
The Cooperative College program with the Duke University School of the
Environment. Durham. North Carolina, is designed to coordinate the
undergraduate education of students at IUP with graduate programs in the
areas of resources and environment offered at Duke. Undergraduate majors
in one of the natural sciences, mathematics, economics, business, or political
science are suited to the program. Preparation for the Duke program should
include at least one year each of biology with work in botany, economics
with a significant component of microeconomics, and mathematics which
should include calculus, computer science, and statistics. Applicants to the
Duke program who have completed courses in ecology, chemistry, geology,
physics, and a foreign language or additional courses in biology, economics,
and mathematics will be given preferential consideration. Students are
accepted in either of two degree programs at Duke: the Master of Forestry
(M.F.) or Master of Environmental Management (M.E.M.).
Students may be accepted into the Duke graduate program after three years
of high-quality undergraduate study at IUP or upon completion of the
baccalaureate. Students who qualify after three years will have completed
most of the undergraduate degree requirements at IUP except for total hours.
Courses at Duke will be applied to the bachelor's degree at IUP. Dr. Gould
F. Schrock. Department of Biology, is the faculty adviser at IUP and assists
students in program planning.
Jefferson Medical College-IUP
Physician Shortage Area Program
A cooperative Family Medicine Physician Education Program has been
established by IUP and Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson
University in Philadelphia for the purpose of improving the distribution of
physicians in Pennsylvania. The program is designed to increase the
opportunities for young women and men to practice family medicine in the
rural communities of Pennsylvania where there is a shortage of physicians.
The program at Jefferson Medical College will admit approximately four
graduates of IUP and twenty graduates of other colleges each year. Students
from IUP will be admitted only if properly qualified according to the
admission standards and policies of Jefferson Medical College. Applications
are reviewed by the Joint IUP-Jefferson Subcommittee and
recommendations made to the Jefferson Committee on Admissions.
Admission to Jefferson Medical College
A strong preparation in the sciences and mathematics basic to medical
school studies is required. A variety of college course formats and
combinations, including biology, general and organic chemistry, and physics
is a minimum. Courses taken to meet the basic requirements should be
rigorous and. in general, comparable to courses accepted for concentration
in these disciplines. Courses taken should be supplemented by laboratory
experiences. Students may take upper-level science courses out of
educational interest or to fulfill the requirements of their major. Taking
additional science courses that cover material taught within the medical
school curriculum is not helpful to gain admission.
Breadth of education is expected. Pursuit of some discipline in depth is
encouraged. A successful medical student must actively acquire, synthesize,
apply, and communicate information. These are skills which can be
98 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
developed through a great variety of academic disciplines. Studies in the
humanities and the social and behavioral sciences and development of
effective writing skills are strongly suggested. Additional requirements for
admission can be found in '•Information for Prospective Students,"
published by Jefferson Medical College.
Students who qualify for the Physician Shortage Area Program (PSAP) must
certify their intentions to adhere to the following plan of education and
practice: (a) complete the family medicine curriculum during their four
years of medical education at Jefferson Medical College, including a six-
week clerkship in a rural area; (b) complete a three-year family medicine
residency; and (c) agree to practice family medicine in an underserved area.
Preference will be given to Pennsylvania residents who are interested in this
program, with highest priority given to those who actually live, at the time
of application, in the underserved area in which they hope to practice. (Dr.
Allan Andrew, pre -medical adviser in the Biology Department, will assist
students in program planning.)
In the programs of study that follow, no more than six semester hours in
aggregate from internships, independent study, and special topics may be
counted toward biology course requirements. Credits beyond six earned
from these sources are counted as general electives.

Biochemistry Program
Richard A. Hartline, Program Coordinator; Dietrich,
Harding, Biology and Chemistry faculties.
The B.S. in Biochemistry is a four-year degree curriculum offered as a
cooperative program by the Biology and Chemistry departments.
The curriculum leading to a B.S. in Biochemistry begins with foundation
courses in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics in the first two
years. Specialization in biochemistry commences in the third year with
courses in biochemistry, genetics, physical chemistry. Special Topics in
Biochemistry, and Biochemistry Seminar.
A unique feature of this undergraduate program is that Biochemistry
research is a requirement. After consultation with faculty, the students will
define a problem and devise an experimental plan through library research.
I .ihoratory research will be done under the direct supervision of a College
of Natural Science and Mathematics faculty member. Finally, the student
will report on the results of the research in both written and oral forms.
The B.S. in Biochemistry Program is intended for those students whose
interests lie in a most exciting field of modern science. Graduates of this
program can expect to be qualified to enter graduate programs in
biochemistry, biology, chemistry, molecular biology, and professional
schools in the health sciences, and positions in industrial and government
research laboratories and in industrial production facilities.

Science in Chemistry, the Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry, and the Bachelor
of Science in Education with a Chemistry major. The first two degree
programs are under the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and
the third is under the College of Education. The department also offers a
Chemistry minor.
700 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania
The B.S. in Chemistry is a professional degree and is certified by the
American Chemical Society. The student completing this major should he
qualified to assume a position in industry or government as a chemist or to
apply for admission to graduate school to pursue advanced studies leading to
the M.S. or Ph.D. degree. The student considering going to a professional
school who also wishes to complete this degree should elect appropriate
courses as required by the professional school in addition to the courses
required here. Those students who are particularly interested in biochemistry
should elect a few selected biology courses.
The curriculum leading to the B.A. in Chemistry is designed to allow for the
workable union of nonscience areas with chemistry in such a way as to
retain the fundamental science and mathematics requirements needed for a
career in chemistry. A careful selection of electives will qualify the student
for entrance into many fields in which there is an acute need for educated
people and. at the same time, satisfy the entrance requirements of various
professional and graduate schools.
Some possible and useful combinations between chemistry and other
disciplines would include chemistry-biology, chemistry-business
administration, chemistry -computer science, chemistry -criminology,
chemistry-government, chemistry-pre -dental, chemistry -pre-law, chemistry-
safety science, chemistry-pre-medicine, and chemistry-English (technical
writing). The student must arrange a practical sequence of non-chemistry
courses in consort with his/her adviser and the department chairperson
concerned. A student seeking a career in forensic science should major in
chemistry. The department also offers pre-medical programs in both the B.S.
and B.A. curriculums. These programs prepare the student to satisfy the
entrance requirements of medical schools.
The curriculum leading to the B.S. in Education with a Chemistry major is
designed to prepare the student to teach chemistry at the secondary school
level. Upon completion of the specified coursework and the requirements
for teacher certification processes, the student is eligible for Pennsylvania
certification by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

Gary L. Buterbaugh, Chairperson; Cross, Cunningham,
McKelvey, Micco, Oblitey, Shubra, Sweeney, Watts, Wolfe;
and professor emeritus Tompkins
The programs in Computer Science at IUP lead to the B.S. or B.A. degree
and are designed primarily to prepare graduates for productive work in
highly computer-dependent areas of business, government, and industry. In
recent years, majors graduating from the program have attained their first
jobs in business applications, programming and systems analysis, computer
software development, scientific and applied mathematical programming,
other computer-related areas, and graduate school.
In a rapidly developing field such as Computer Science, it is important that
the graduate's education be broad and fundamental so that new trends can
more readily be followed. Our goal is to balance fundamentally and breadth
with sufficient supervised practice so that our graduates are productive at the
time they graduate but ready and willing to change with the field.
Most applied computer scientists work in cooperation with professionals
trained in other areas and with managers. Hence, the ability to work and
communicate with others of different educational backgrounds is an
important characteristic. To that end, we encourage Computer Science
majors to take a strong minor (or area concentration) in a second area of
interest. Some students may wish to double major. Majors in other
disciplines at IUP are also welcome to take Computer Science courses for
which they are qualified or a Computer Science minor.
Students majoring in Computer Science should set their goals beyond
simple programming and should be preparing
1. to program well, both in design and implementation phases, and
document what they have programmed
2. to analyze real-world problems in preparation for program design
and implementation
3. to manage activities that are strongly computer dependent
4. to improve the tools that programmers and systems analysts use.
i.e., to develop
a. better machine systems
b. better software systems
c. better languages for communicating with machines
d. better methods for solving intractable problems
5. to teach about computers at college or high school level
6. to advance the fundamental theory of digital information
processors.

are under the College of Education.
The department also will act in an advisory capacity for students enrolled in
the B.S. in Natural Science with concentrations in Astronomy, Meteorology.
or Oceanography. These degree programs are designed to prepare students
for graduate work in the aforementioned disciplines.
The B.S. degree in Geology is. in a sense, a dual-purpose degree program.
Not only is it designed to graduate well-trained, competent geologists, able
to compete for positions as professional geologists in the job market; it is
also designed to provide the student with the necessary allied science and
mathematics background to enable the good student to qualify for admission
to the graduate school of his/her choice in Geology.
The B.S. degree in Environmental Geoscience offers the student a broad-
based science background. In addition to a firm foundation in Geology-
Geoscience courses, the student will also acquire a background in Biology
and Chemistry. This will provide thorough training for the rapidly growing
field of Environmental Geoscience, both for students who plan to pursue
postgraduate training in this field and for those who plan to enter directly
into jobs in federal and state agencies and private consulting firms.
The department recognizes as one of its functions the role of serving the
field of public education by the preparation of qualified and certified
teachers of earth and space science. Also, because of the interdisciplinary
nature of both the department and the requirements for preparing general
science teachers, the department administers the program designed to lead to
general science certification and includes majors of that category as
department members.
Minor in Geology
The minor in Geology consists of 17 semester hours. Required are GS121:
Physical Geology/GS123: Intensive Physical Geology Lab and GS131:
Historical Geology/GS133: Intensive Historical Geology Lab. Three upper-
level (300 or higher) courses in geology (total 9 credits) will make up the
remaining requirements for the minor in Geology totaling 17 credits.
Minor in Geoscience
The requirement for the minor in Geoscience will be 16 semester hours of
geoscience, taken within the following framework. Students must complete
one course in each discipline within the department: Astronomy, three
semester hours; Geology, four semester hours (not GS 1 22 or 1 32);
Meteorology, three semester hours; Oceanography, three semester hours, for
a total of thirteen semester hours. The additional three semester hours can be
taken in any one of the aforementioned disciplines. Liberal Studies
nonlaboratory courses, GS 110, 141, 150, 151, and 221, will not be
acceptable toward the minor in Geoscience.

The Mathematics Department prepares students for work in industry,
graduate school mathematics, and teaching. Degrees offered by the
department are the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, the Bachelor of
Science in Applied Mathematics, and the Bachelor of Science in Education
with a Mathematics major. The first two degree programs are offered within
the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and the third is with the
College of Education. The department also offers a minor in Mathematics
and a minor in Applied Statistics. The program for a mathematics major in
the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics is two-phased. A student
may pursue a degree in Applied Mathematics or Mathematics. Those
completing a degree in Mathematics will be prepared to continue their
studies in mathematics in graduate school, though some may enter business,
industry, or government service. Those students receiving a degree in
Applied Mathematics will be primarily prepared to enter business, industry,
or government service in an area where mathematics or computer science is
used or to continue their studies in applied mathematics or computer science
in graduate school. This student would not be expected to continue graduate
studies in pure mathematics.
The program leading to the B.S. in Education with a Mathematics major
prepares the student for teaching mathematics in junior or senior high
school. Many graduates, however, continue their formal education in
mathematics at the graduate level or work in government or industry.
Elementary education majors may elect to take a concentration of at least
fifteen hours in mathematics. The program of courses for this concentration
is as follows: in addition to MA151 and MA 152, select nine hours from the
following courses: MA317, MA420. MA450. MA456, MA457, MA458,
MA459. MA471, or MA483.
Minor in Mathematics
The minor in Mathematics consists of a minimum of seventeen ( 17)
semester hours in mathematics. The minor is Mathematics may offer
preparation for advanced study in areas such as Economics. Computer
Science. Physics, and other natural sciences. Any student who is required to
take a year of calculus should consider this minor.
Minor in Applied Statistics
The minor in Applied Statistics may be of interest to students who are
required to take a calculus course and a course in probability and statistics.
This includes, but is not limited to, students in the College of Business,
Safety Science majors, and Computer Science majors.
A cumulative QPA of at least 2.0 in MA courses is required for a minor in
Mathematics or Applied Statistics. The Mathematics Department will not
certify a minor for a transfer student unless at least two (2) of the courses
counting for the minor have been completed in the 1UP Mathematics
Department.

The program in psychology leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree and is
designed to give the student an understanding of the methods and major
findings in the science of behavior and mental processes. The major offers
the background required for graduate work in psychology and also
preparation for such related fields as social work, personnel work,
advertising, medicine, law. and theology. The department also offers a minor
in psychology.
An honors program has been developed to enrich the education of qualified
psychology majors and assist such students in gaining entrance to graduate
school by providing classroom and research experiences which will prepare
them for work at the graduate level.
A track in applied psychology was developed which offers students a firm
background in the science of psychology, preparation for nonclinical
applications of psychology to the solution of human and social problems in
private and public organizations, and preparation for graduate study in the
applied area of psychology. The core for the track is the same as for the
psychology major; coursework in applied psychology is provided by
enrolling in appropriate psychology electives and a carefully designed
concentration of courses outside the department.
All psychology majors are required to take a minor or a concentration in
another discipline.

The School of Continuing
Education
Nicholas E. Kolb, Dean
The mission of the School of Continuing Education is to serve the lifelong
educational needs of nontraditional students, working adults, professional
organizations, local and state agencies, and the citizens of the common-
wealth by providing access to the academic and human resources of IUP.
The School of Continuing Education was created by the IUP Board of
Trustees in May, 1966. Today, the school comprises the Division of Credit
Programs, the Division of Conferences and Noncredit Programs, the
Highway Safety Center, and the Criminal Justice Training Center. The
school is characterized by its commitment to academic excellence and high-
quality programs. The school maintains a dynamic environment which
fosters innovation and experimentation in order to continually improve
programs and respond to the ever-changing needs of society.
Division of Credit Programs

a part-time basis. Courses may be selected from day or evening offerings.
The Associate of Arts Degree in General Studies is designed for the
nontraditional or adult learner who seeks to acquire a broad base of
knowledge in the liberal arts. This program consists of the core of Liberal
Studies requirements of the IUP bachelor's degree programs plus nine to
twelve credits of electives. The student is encouraged to develop a plan of
study with his or her academic adviser which will bring focus to the
individual's interest in a particular area or subject. No more than thirty
credits may be transferred into this degree program from other colleges.
The Bachelor of Science degree in General Studies is designed for the
mature adult student, who under faculty advisement can explore and develop
an individualized plan of study which does not approach any existing IUP
major. This self-designed plan of study must be based on a specific theme
which incorporates basic and applied coursework within a theoretical
framework culminating in a senior-year independent research project. At the
time of application for degree candidacy through the School of Continuing
Education or transfer from another major, the student must submit a plan of
study which contains the proposed theme, rationale, and courses needed to
satisfy the Special Interest Area. A faculty member will be assigned to assist
with the plan of study prior to acceptance to degree candidacy. Students
other than School of Continuing Education students must have completed
45sh before a request for transfer will be honored.
The student's plan of study, which is designed to fulfill the Special Interest
Area, must be approved by the student's adviser and the dean of the School
of Continuing Education.
